CLEVE BAKERS
Sad MISTAKE
DECoRATEs THE POLISHED MA.
HOGANY FOR TWo-BIT
CIGARS.

Cleve Baker. the assistant district
attorney, very punctilious as to the
ethics of dress and the etiquette of
court. sometimes grows very careless
in regard to the ordinary mundane
affairs. He was in exceedingly high
spirits last night, when the news
reached him that another bank had
failed. He had considerable money
no, ii was friend of his who ha !
the money there-Cleve had his
money with him.
1t made him laugh at any rate,
perhaps, because this was one of the
many banks in which he had no
money. At any rate, growing very
careless, he asked Mr.. Salsberry, the
Ubehebe copper king, into the Brok-
ers' Exchange to have cigar. Mr..
Salsberry likes cigar, generally be-
cause of its appearance. He saw one
which appeared very good to him,
and he indicated the box to the man
with the immaculate linen coat, and
the smile which goes off with the end
of the shift.
III take one, too" said Mr..
Baker, laying a half dollar gently on
the mahogany, there being just the
faintest squeak from the eagle there
on.
Mr. Salsberry grew very commune
cative, and while Mr.. Baker appear
ed interested in his conversation
there was an air of observation-disclosures
about him, and he glanced at the i'm
maculate linen, and the smile thai
was still there.
"Ah, ah," he began, and Mr. SAILS
berry looked at him with some sur
prise, while the man of the immacu
late linen never looked his way
. 1T was half, you know" he con
A tinued, and then he looked at thu
register, the cash register, and say
so cents marked up there. He doesn
smoke at all, and what he was goin
to do with a two-bit cigar couldn'
occur to him. He couldn't say
Never mind, won't take anything,
l. it was too late for that; so he jus
f let the blood slowly trickle down in
wardly, and began to talk to an in
aginary man alongside of him. Wha
l. he said to that poor man was soma
t. thing awful.
k Are you talking to yourself?
y queried Mr.. Salsberry, putting
ID cloud of fragrant Havana his way.
g Don't, please don't" expostulate
Mr.. Baker, "the smell of that onio
), makes me i'll. OF course | am NJ
n talking to myself. You don't thin
st l would talk to myself that wa

lie He looked up and found that /
ne was talking to himself. Mr.. Sal

p ing one of the best smokes that

THE POT BEGINS TO BUBBLE
County Politics, However, Likely to be
 Tame DuringINext Campaign.

The activity manifested in state politics during the past week or two has caused some interest to be developed in the political situa- ton in Faulkner county. The Democratic primary in this county, however, is likely to be tame af- fair as compared with the last campaign, for, with one exception, all of the present county officers will be running for second term, and in all probability several of them will have no opposition.
 The exception mentioned is the office of county clerk. J. H. Hartie is now holding his second term in this office, but he has many. friends who regard him as the most efficient county clerk the county has ever had and are bring ing strong pressure upon him to make the race for reelection. He has not, however, decided wheth- CT he will again ask for the office. But at any rate, there will be sev- eral others in the race for county clerk, if present reports are to be believed. Among those mention ed as probable candidates are A. 1 J. Witt, R. A. Reynolds and R. F. Adams of Couway; A. Q. Mel ton of Cato, l. G. Williams oi Wooster and E. H. Edwards oi Vilonia.
 The county officers who are now holding their first terms are as fol lows: Representative, T. J. Bull lion; county judge, J. A. Lea sheriff, w. NJ. Brady; circuit clerk A. NJ. Ledbetter; treasurer, J. R. Giddens; assessor, w. w. Bishop coroner. l. HI. Pence

CHANGE IN HER IDEAL
Preferred a Literary Gentleman; She
 Married the Mikman.

"I don't believe a woman ever married the style of man she planned to marry in her school days" observed a grammar school teacher, as she glanced at an en- garement announcement card that had just reached her through the mail. "Now here is Carrie sending me word that she Is going to mar rv James. who has been serving our family with milk for so many years that I'm ashamed to remem- Der it. James is all right, of course, but I know he is not the kind of man Carrie had in mind when she and I were attending grammar school and had no idea that we were to become teachers. Carries ideal was tall man with black mus tache, and black eyes, and a red rose pinned on the lapel of his coat. And above all, he must be literary :; he must be able to discuss all books, ancient and modern, and have soul- ful eyes. She had been teaching five years when her taste changed. She then preferred clean-shaven face to the black mustache, and would not insist on the red rose, but she still chung to the literary stunt. We'll, one day she met James when he was delivering milk here, and be- fore I knew it she was asking me all sorts of questions about him. Among other things, I told her he knew as much about literature as baby does about astronomy, that he Is a widower with three children, and that he is reputed to have some money. And Carries is going to marry him, with his red face and fierce whiskers. Thank goodness, l never had an ideal. Any good man would suit me, but 1 could not think of marrying James, even had he asked me-"

WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO
 ABOUT IT?

The people of Conway might just as we'll be brought face to face with the issue. There is no use in lodging it. Several thousand dollars must be raised in subscrip- tions to the fund or the state nor mai school, of the location of which we have boasted so much will be forever lost to the city.
 Before the banks and fnanciers will deposit the $5I,753 to the credit of the normal board and guarantee the improvements which we have already pledged, they will require sufficient subscriptions to secure it. The amount requir ed has not yet been raised, and nothing has been in the matter for several weeks.
 Now, what are we going to do about it? The drouth and pros poets of a short crop have, of course, been a great drawback. But this very fact is one of the most urgent reasons why the nor mai should be brought here. It would mean that crop failure would not embarrass our business interests to anything like the ex- tent it does today; for the money distributed here by the normal would come just the same in fat years as in lean.
 The time is short. The matter is pressing. To lose the normal for the want of a few thousand dollars wold mean the lasting dis grace of Conway. What are we going to do about it?

DONAGHEY FOR GOVERNOR.

The announcement is made this week upon the authority of Ben l.. Griffin, state secretary of the Farmers Union, that George w. Donaghey of this city will be candidate for the Democratic nom- ination flor governor to succeed Governor John s. Little, whose son has just issued statement to the effect that the present execu- tive will not be candidate to sue ceed himself. On his return to this state from his trip with the state normal committee, Mir. Don- aghey will, it is said, issue his for mai announcement.
 In MT. Donaghey's candidacy, the Democrats of Arkansas will be given their first opportunity to vote for a man who is neither law yer nor politician; man who has never held or sought political office; in short, plain business man.
 That George w. Donaghey would make strong, fearless and competent governor, no one that knows him doubts in the least. He is self-made man, and he has made a good job of it. And it is not simply on account ot his successful fight against the state capitol grafters, in which he saved the state more than a million dol lars, that he deserves to be elected. A man of robust physical strength, of keen, ircisive intellect, of strong moral convictions, in the prime of life, he is ideally fitted to occupy the high office of chief ex- ecutive of Arkansas.
 MT. Donaghey will enter the race with the unanimous endorse ment of his home people, who have known and admired him for many years and who are confident that his candidacy will be crowned with success.

A Delightful Musicale.

DIR. and Mrs. +. o. Blanchard invited
10 their home last evening about hity
people, who had the pleasure OF listening
to most delightful musicale.
The principal artist was Mr.. Karl Fein-
niger OF New York, summer visitor at
The Manchester and yiolinist OF wide
reputation in both Europe and America.
He is master OF the king OF instruments
which he plays with the beauty OF perfect
skill joined TO the true expression OF
musical genius. Mrs. Feininger, an ae-
complished pianist, was his accompanist.
From sketch in recent number OF
the Violin World, ii is learned that
the violinist was born in Durlach,
Baden, July 81, 1874, and came, while
yet a small boy, 10 the United STATES
with his parents, who settled in Col
umbia, 5. c. At the age of IA, he made
his first appearance in concert and not
long after was sent to the Leipsic con-
servatory to complete his musical edu-
cation. Returning to this country at
the outbreak OF the Civil strife, he en-
listed in the Federal army and served to
the end OF the war. He then resumed
his musical career in which he has won
euNlauie recognition ds u Nioiihist, conl-
poser and teacher. In 1874, he was on
an extended concert tour through South
America and in 1856 made his debut in
Berlin as composer of large orchestral
works. lie has been fruitful author of
music, writing in all forms, and his
songs, which are numerous, have been
hkened TO those OF Franz Abt.
Albert Richardson Of New York, also
guest at The Manchester, carried the
audience captive with a glorious voice
and won genuine ovation. John Lam
son, the possessor Of a smooth deep bass,
was heard in one excellent selection,
which he sang to the accompaniment of
his sister, Miss Mary Lamson, and Miss
Edith Marcott contributed an exquisite
piano solo to the program.
At the close OF the concert, elegant re-
freshments were served in the dining
room.
Mr. and Mrs. Feininger leave The Man
chester today for New York.
