Editor Lamar Register.
Reports have begun to come to
this Office Of the decrease in mum
beers Of the grain louise in some Sec
tions Of this state. 1t would be we'll
for the people in the Arkansas Val
Icy whose wheat fields have been in
tested with this louise this spring, to
keep very close watch on their fields,
and il they find that the lice are de-
creasing in considerable numbers, it
might be we'll to allow the crop to
stand in hopes that the lady beetles
will destroy the. lice in sufficient
time 70 save the crop of wheat. II
the wheat is very largely dead at
this time il probably would be OF
very little use to attempt to save the
crop II some other crop can be put
in by blowing under the wheat.
The writer would be very glad to
receive letters from any farmers
whose wheat fields have been infest-
cd to know whether or not the lice
are still increasing in numbers OF
whether they are diminishing.
Very truly,

member that there were two other

same week in New York in the inter-

was just as we'll attended as the
Bryan one. The only harmony in
the democratic party is the harmon

NEGRO HELD FOR ARSON.
Suspected of Having Started Fire in
Philadelphia.

PHILADELPHIA, June S.-A negro has
been arrested by the police on suspicion of
having started the fire at 1872 North Third
street, this city, early yesterday in which
one man lost his life and several other per-
sons were more or less seriously injured. J.
J. Reynolds, the negro, was employed in the
tailoring establishment of Isaac Greenbaum
and was seen running away from the place
about the time the first was discovered. He
was held in 5000 bail for a further ex-
animation. He claims the fire was started
by lace curtain coming in contact with
a lighted gas jet.
Greenbaums family was asleep when the
fire was discovered. Escape by the STAIR
way was cut off. and all rushed to the third
floor. 2Greenbaum's thirteen-year-old son,
Abraham, jumped to a window ledge on the
second floor and reached the street unhurt.
The father, mother and daughter, aged
nineteen years. followed. but all missed the
ledge and fell to the sidewalk. Greenbaum,
who was sixty-two years of age, was killed
almost instantly, and the mother and
daughter sustained internal injuries and
their condition Is serious. Several other
members of the family were taken from the
burning house by aremen.

The recent ruling by Assistant Secretary
of the Interior Wilson, approved by the Sec

rolls-the ninety-day men-because they
were during a portion of that period on
furlough, was discussed and a resolution
offered by Mr.. Hickey was adopted depre-

garrison to act in unison with the G. A. r.
in it's protest against the seemingly I'M
fair ruling Capt. A. A. Robins of Gen.
William F. Barry Garrison made an ad-
dress favorng the resolution.
DR.. Lee said he is of the opinion that the
ruling will not stand If the question is
taken to the courts. He suggested that the
national convention take the matter up
with President Roosevelt.
Information was received from Winnie

Gently, and resolutions of sympathy were
adopted.
Among the visitors who made short adj
dresses were Capt. E. A. Robins of Gen.
