SURFACE SMOOTH,
 BUT ROW EXPECTED
Next Meeting of Peniten- tiary Board Promises to
 Be Very Warm.

Little Rock. June 30. On the surface all is smooth, and next regular meeting of the peniten- tiary board will pass without a ruffie of the silent waters, but it will not. It is secretly whisper ed that big things will come off at this meeting, and that Attor- ney General Kirby will pick up right where he left off at the last meeting, to prevent the con- victs getting into the hands of low bidding contractors, or to be idle on the farm or in the peni- tentiary. wv. Dickinson has a contract for the lease of con- victs, from 100 to 300, which will expire within few months,
 the prisoners to be furnished to him, guarded. clothed and fed, at 50 cents per day. Now Dick inson has not been able at any time to get the state to turn over to him many more than the min imum number, and at the ne xt meeting of the board he IS eX- pected to come in and ask to be given the balance of his contract, enough men to make his number of convicts equal 300 at all times since he has had the contract. One or two members of the board may favor such a move. if it is made, but the majority say they will strenuously oppose it. What to do with the surplus con- victs will then be discussed in earnest, as at the last meeting the board refused to lease out any more for a short term, even though $1.1 was offered, be- cause plank against convict leasing has been inserted in the state platform. Attorney Gen. eral Kirby has been in the mi nority on the penitentiary board until the past few meetings,
 when he has been picking up in favor on account of being on the popular side of most measures.

STATE AID FOR
 OUR STATE FAIR
The Commissioner of Agl'i- culture Offers $l00 for
 Best County Exhibit

Hon. Guy B. Tucker. Commis- sioner, of Mines. Manufactures and Agric llture, has offered a cash prize of S100 for the best collective exhibit from any eoun- ty at the State Fair this fall.
 This announcement was made officially at the State Fair smoker given by the Little Rock Board of Trade recently when the Lit tie Rock and Pulaski county State Fair Auxiliary Committee was elected.
 In addition 10 the hundred-dol- lar prize by the State, the Fair Association offers prizes of one hundred, fifty and twenty-five dollars as first, second and third prizes for the best county ex- hibits.
 Entering proaucts in the coun- ty exhibition class in no way af- fleets the individual entry, and all items entered for the county con- tests are also to be entered for the individual prizes, which will be paid in full to the owners of the various entries.
 Twenty-two counties have al- ready State Fair committees and are preparing for splendid ex- 1 hibits at the third annual State Fair and Industrial Exposition at Oaklawn Park, Hot Springs, October 12 to IF.

FAUCETTE-CUMNOCk
 BRIBERY CASE
May Never Come Up Again For Another
 Trial.

Little Rock. June 30. In all probability the charges against w. c. Faucette. mayor of Argen- ta, and Frank Cumnock, former mayor of Barring Cross. will ney- CT again come up for trial. They were convicted in the circuit court here. on a change of venue from Berry county last summer and an appeal was taken to the Supreme court, the decision Of the lower court yesterday being reversed. The reversal was be- cause J. M. Shackleford, deputy prosecuting attorney in Perry county at the time, was permit ted to tell of conversations with Cumnock, when Faucette was not present, the two being tried under the one indictment and without severence. The men were indicted in Perry county charged with conspiring to bri5e the jury. which convicted Sena- tor A. T. Gross of soliciting a bribe. Robbed of the evidence of Shackelford, who testified that he agreed with Cumnock, an emissary of Faucette, to select on the jury two men who would at least cause a mistrial, Shack elford to get $100, which money was later furnished to him and turned over to the court. the State can hardly expect a con viction and the common opinion is that the cases will be dismiss ed.

LITTLE ROCK 1 MOBILE 0.

and this time the Mobile Sea- Gulls were the victims. Incident ally it was Pops" sixth suc- cessive victory.
 The game was as pretty an ex- hibition of fielding and baserun. ming as was ever seen on the Mobile ball lot. The score, 10. will show that the swat-clubs of both teams wera not working overtime. Both pitchers were in grand form but Eyler had a shade the better of the argument all the way.
 This victory puts Little Rock back at the 800 notch and in the fifth place, higher than at any time before this season. The Travellers play two more games at Mobile and with Bill Hart on the slab today and Hitless Hero Buchanan tomorrow it looks like three straight from the Gulls. Big Chief" Eastman will prob ably open the series at Memphis Thursday and away we go.
