GAS DR|LLERS
 AGAIN AT WORK

Little Rock, Nov. 2S.-Idle for two months, the drill of the pros- pect we'll at Plummerville, where natural gas in quantities sufficient to supply Little Rock is expected to be found, began pounding again today and the Little Rock officials of the company expect no further mishap before the flow of gas is reached. The drill was down about 24oo feet when the cable parted, and the rope had to be dug out of the hole piece by piece. The hole was drilled crooked, and in digging out the old rope cable, the well has been strengthened so the old drills left in the bottom of the hole, and the new drill can go on straight down without waiting to fish out the old tools. The for nation being passed through now is such that 1t is thought gas well will be brought in within the next few hundred feet of drilling, which at this great depth, is very slow job. A new steel wire cable is now being used, guarding against fur ther breaks there.

OF MONEY FOUND
w. T. Mcdonald Admits Picking Up $75
 Lost by ]. E. Montgomery.

Through the efforts of c. w. Stewart and, incidentally, an ad in the Daily Edition, S75 in cur rency lost on the streets of this city last Saturday by J. E. Mont gomery has been partially restored to the owner, the finder giving se- curity to return the balance.
 Mir. Montgomery lost the money out of his pocket, and missing it a short time afterwards, came to the Log Cabin Democrat and had an ad inserted. Some boys who read the ad remembered having seen a man, who was afterwards fourd to be w. T. Mcdonald of Rex, Van Buren county pick up a pocketbook answering the descrip- ton of the one lost by MT. Mont gomery. The matter was put in the hands of MT. Stewart who, by some clever detective work, ascer- tained the name and location oi the finder. He went to Rex sev- eral days ago in search of McDon- aid, who had not arrived home, but came in a short time after wards. Mcdonald admitted find. ing the money, and said that he first started home, but after reach. ing Morrilton decided to go to Lit tie Rock and enjoy his suddenly acquired wealth. He paid over $40 to Mir. Stewart and gave secu. rity for the balance.

UNIQUE SUIT BY CANDIDATE
Claims Reward Offered by His
 Opponent.
Echo of Legislative Race in Hot Spring County-Bond Amendment the
 Issue

Little Rock, Nov. 28.-Perhaps the most unique suit of the year is that which was filed in the Hot Spring county circuit court in Malvern today by w. T. Tucker, a Little Rock attorney. This suit is an echo of the recent legislative race in Hot Springs county in which D. D. Glover was defeated for representative of that county by Horatio Barnett. During the cam paign the candidates were often pitted against each other on the stump, and during one of these battles of words, Glover alleges he made the assertion that if the peo- pie voted in sufficient numbers to pass Amendment No. 10, which would permit the county to issue bonds for public improvements, it would issue bonds bearing five per cent, and with five mill road tax already levied, the bonds would pay themselves out in 3313 years; or, bonds bearing per cent inter est would pay themselves out in 25 years. Glover claimed this an nouncement was such a startling proposition to Barnett that 1t was to his interest to have 1t worked out so he could advise his people accordingly, so he entered into contract, by public declaration, that he would pay Glover $500 if he could produce the figures bear ing out his contentious. Glover claims he spent number of years as a school teacher, and as the proposition was simple one of arithmetic, he would have soon earned his money, but his pupil was dull of understanding, and 1t required six months to drill into him the simple proposition. Glo- yer says, in his complaint, that he has drawn upon Barnett for the $500, which should have been paid to him long ago, according to contract, but the draft was allowed to go to protest, causing him an additional expense of S2.65. Glow CT accordingly asks for judgment for S5o2 65.

In another colum will be found a nice ad for the First Presbyterian Church to which we invite your attention each week. Rev.
