Increase In Value of Cotton.

At a round estimate, all of the cot ton now within the borders of Arkan- sas has increased in value $2,760,00 within the last 10 days, as result of the operations of Daniel Sully on the floor of the New York Cotton Ex- change. A tidy sum that, and one that would purchase nearly 50000 more bales at closing price on the market for middling Saturday, which was 11.56 cents or 69 points higher than 10 days before. This approximation is based on the assumption that there are S00,000 bales in the state, which figure most cotton men accept. Should the hope of the farmer be realized by seeing the figure per pound soar to 15 cents, the increase in value would be in the neighborhood of SIG, 100000, or enough to build two battleships such as the great Connecticut, which is one of the heaviest type in our naval force, with a sufficient sum left over to add materially to the mosquito fleet. The total price at 15 cents would be S6O,- 000,000, which would build whole navy, to continue the parallel.

Unknown Negro Drowned.

News has been received that ne gro was drowned at Reddens Ferry, six miles above Warren. The negro drove buggy off steep bluff into the Saline river. The horse was drown ed and the negro's dead body was found on the bank. He either was so nearly drowned that he died from ex- haustion after he had crawled out on the bank, or death resulted from in juries received in the fall. Dr. J. w. Thorn hired the negro in Pine Bluff to bring his buggy to Warren, but does not know what the negro's name was, and he has not been identified yet. It is thought that the negro, finding he could not get across the river on the ferry boat after night, undertook to ford it, and in seeking for fording place drove off the bluff in the dark ness. Reddens Ferry seems to be an unlucky place on the river, for no less than four people have lost their lives there.

Threat cut and Pockets RIfIed.

When the horse and buggy belong ing to A. w. Thorpe stopped at his home four miles from Argenta, near Oak Grove school house, about g o'clock Wednesday night, Mrs Thorpe ran out of the house to meet her hus- band. who had been away all day working at his timers shop in Ar genta. When she reached the buggy she found her husband lying in the bottom, dead, with ghastly knife wound in his throat He had also been shot, and his body was covered with blood. His trousers pockets turned inside out told the motive for the hor- rible deed. There is little doubt but that robbery was the motive for the crime, but it is known that Thorpe did not have large amount of money on his person. Just where the murder was committed has not been discov- cred. The murderer had evidently climbed into the buggy to commit the crime, and then had allowed the horse to carry its dead master on to his home. Mystery surrounds every detail of the murder. No arrests have been made, and the county officers are at a loss to fix the guAt. Robbery was undoubtedly the motive, as the mans pockets were turned inside out. and their contents scattered over the bot tom of the wagon in which his body was found when the horse, without guidance, brought it home.

Accepts Biz Bridge For couty.

County Judge James Gould Wednes- day afternoon inspected the new iron bridge, across Bayou Bartholomew four miles south of Pine Bluff on the Monticello road, and accepted it. The bridge was recently built at cost of $3,500 to the county. It is 280 feet long, 16 feet wide and is made en- tirely of iron. It is wide enough to admit the passing of two vehicles, and is said by Judge Gould to be one of the finest road bridges ever built tn that county.
