Severe Storm at Fort Smith.

In a terrific rain and thunder storm which swept over Fort Smith Thurs day afternoon one woman was killed and a number of residences were dam aged by lightning. The victim is Mrs. Isabella Baxter of s street, aged 51 years. She was at work in her kitch- en and bolt of lightning struck the house and killed her instantly.
 The downpour assumed the propor- tions of a cloudburst and for a time tornado was feared, as dangerous looking clouds gathered. in the sky and the wind blew at a terrific rate. Within an hour the rainfall reached 1.76 inches, which is the average rain fall for the entire month there. After an hour the storm ceased and it was found that wires had been put out of commission and streets and stores inundated. Several business houses on Fifth street were completely food ed
 In speaking of the storm, Weather Observer Guthrie said:
 T have been in the weather bureau service for seventeen years in this country, Central America and the West Indies, and l never saw rain and hail fall so fast as this afternoon. The record breaks all records of this office"

Common School Fund Is About
 S1,COO,COO.

Prof George B. Cook, superintend- ent of public instruction, estimates that the common school fund to be apportioned to the schools will reach $1,000,000. He gives as his reason that the levy this year is one more mill than was levied last year, at which time $677,000 was paid into the state treasury by the collectors of the various counties. There were 533,O0O children reported in the last school census, which made the per capita $127. This year the per capita will be nearly $2, according to Professor Cook.
 Reports of the county examiners are now beginning to come in, and all must be received by the superintend- ent of public instruction before August 10, because the information as to enumeration must be tabulated for the use of the State Board of Common School Commissioners, which meets September 1 to appor- tion the fund among the various schools, and this leaves but twenty days in which to do the work.
 It is believed that the enumeration this year will show increases over last, but the per capita will also be much larger.

Pension Increase Likely.

From present indication there will granted by the state pension board at its meeting this year. There are now more than 5000 pensioners On the books, more than 100 from each of the 75 countless, and there are few who will be disqualified, and there are others who, for some reason, failed to make the proper showing in their last application, who are this year filing corrected papers.
 At the last session of the legisla- was made in the pension levy, and it was hoped at the time that the in crease was made that it would pay dollar for dollar upon the pensions allowed by the board, but this will scarcely by the case, according to those who are interested in the mat ter. The increase in the number of petitioners will offset considerable of the increase in the amount received from the levy, and it is estimated that there will be considerable increase in the apportionment this year, but that it will not reach par.
 The clerks of the various counties are now forwarding to the office of State Auditor Moore the certificates of old pensioners, showing the pension CTS are living and not able to support themselves, and Earle W. Hodges, state printing clerk, is engaged in pre- pairing these for revision by the State Pension Board, which will meet in s;eptember.

Boil Weevil Found Near Little Rock

Boil Weevil Found Near Little Rock.
 What is believed to be one of the largest bell weevils that has come under the observation of the state agricultural department was left at that office Saturday by G. W. Turbe- vile of No. 2824 Izard street. The wcevil was found in an orchard not far from his place.
 The two sons of MT. Turbeville dis covered the insect in a basket of plums they had gathered in a field on Fourche about a quarter of q mile from their residence. It is believed the weevil had been feeding on the plums in the Fourche orchard. It is nearly twice the size Of the ordinary cotton boil weevil, and for this reason 1t was suspected at first that it must be of another species, but closely re- lated to the dreaded cotton weevll. Its actions and movements were in every respect similar to those of the weevil. The wings and sharp pointed bill correspond exactly to those of the other, and in addition to this there was a tiny gray streak down it's back similar to the one found on the backs of the cotton boil weevil.
 At first William Stoddard, deputy commissioner of agriculture and Joe M Moore, fertilizer inspector of the department, had their doubts as to it's being a genuine boil weevil. It was the size of the insect that caused th2, two officials to hesitate in pronounc- ing it a cotton boil weevil. Placing it under a magnifying glass, these doubts were removed and both de, clared it to be a boil weevil and the largest they had ever seen.
