A party of Pine Bluffianse returned last night from Dumas, where the big annual barbecue was pulled off yes terday. The people of that city

Pindall reviewed his official acts and defended the ad- nlinistration of Governor Donaghey Attorney NiXon's address was purely patriotic, but he did not overlook the opportunity to announce in closing , that he would be a candidate for pros ecutinS attorney at the primary cleo tion to be held early next year.

CONTRACT LET FOR
 THE BALLAST WORK
Gotten Belt to Improve ROadbed on AEtheimer Branch Road and Will Lay Heavier Steel.

Attorney w. T, Woodbridge of this city, general attorney for the St. Louis, Southwestern, better known as the Cotton Belt, while in Little Rock recently taking depositions in sui; in which the Western Union Tele- graph Company is involved at Sheri- dan, announced that the contract for the ballasting of the Little-Rock Ak heimer branch of the Cotton Belt has been let and that work will proceed as rapidly as the stone can be se- cured.
 He also stated that it is the inten- tion of the management to replace the 56-pound steel on this branch road with D or S pound rails and Belt will enter actively into the Lit tie Roek-St. Louis freight traffic. The Arkansas Brick and Manufacturing Company has secured the contract for furnishing the stone for the bal lasting of the branch, and the mag nitude of the undertaking can be bet ter realized when it is known that ten months will be required to fill the contract for the stone.
 The Little Rock-Altheimer branch is fifty-two miles in length, connectins with the main line of the Cotton Belt from St. Louis to Texas at Altheimer, on the east side of the Arkansas river to Little Rock and the ballasting will give Little Rock anyother connection for heavy traffic direct with St. Louis.

the number that this is the best pro-
gram of it's kind ever given by the
high school students. The members
have worked hard and a good audi
ence should greet them. Last years
program was success, and by re-
quest of the citizens of Wenatchee
the open meeting is given tonight.
This society was started last year
under the direction of Professor
Erickson, and ever since that time
this has been the boosting society of
the high school. They meet every
Monday night, at which time a short
literary program Is given by the

years, and a favorite retiring place
of Mr.. Lincoln during his visits to
Col. Allen. He often remarked he
liked it especially as it was the only
piece of furniture he ever found that
was long enough for him to stretch
his legs on. Mrs. Bond has in her
possession a piece of black silk lace
being a part of the flounce on Mrs.
Lincoln's historic majenta silk dress
which she wore at the inaugural re-
ception at the White House in March,
1861.
Mrs. Fuller has a book also from
the Lincoln library given her mother
by Mrs. Lincoln. Mrs. Fuller's great
great grandfather was also chaplain
in General Washington's army. His
son, Sylvester Graham, was the au-
thor of one of the first books on hy-
giene and vegetarian diet, and it was
for him that Graham -four was nam

BARTENDER WAS
FOUND GUILTY
MONITOR JURY FOUND ARTHUR
FLOYD GUILTY OF SELLING
LIQUOR TN A MINOR-FINED
$50 AND COSTS.

Arthur Floyd, the young bartender
of the Seattle Bar, was found guilty
yesterday at Monitor by the jury
empanelled to try him. He was tried
on the charge of selling liquor to a
minor and assessed fine of $25 and
costs. $50
Jack Colburg. the former proprie-
tor of the saloon, will not receive his
trial until some time next week. The
attorneys in the case had other BUSH
ness to attend to and by mutual con-
sent the case was deferred until next
week.
While the Floyd case was an un-
important one in itself, yet 1t has
considerable bearing on the case that
is to follow. Had the bartender not
been found guilty it is likely that
Colburg might have brought suit
against the city for the recovery OF
the unearned portion Of the license
money Of the Seattle Bar. Now that
the crime has been proven it Is an
easier matter to convict Colburg ami
will stop any proceeding against the
city.

lures of the committee will be made
to the county commissioners at the
next meeting and additional assist
ance of $1,000 will be asked for by

ers to make appropriations for the
construction of county buildings for
exhibits at the A.-Y.-P. exposition

was Immediately transmitted to the
senate.

tribution was discussed and it was
the sense of the meeting that litera-
ture should be secured if possible.
The secretary was instructed to
write w. A. Halteman, executive
commissioner of the A.-Y.-P., asking
that If 1t be possible trade should
be made with Benton county so
that Chelan county space would be
next to Okanogan and Ferry coun-
ties.

rendered. The next rehearsal will
