Yopp'S Bee Buzzing

Little Rock, June 26.-For sev- eral days there has been no rev candidate mentioned to contest with Governor Donaghey i'll the next gubernatorial campaign, but the week is not to pass without one more, and friends of the prospec- tive candidate say he will make the race if given encouragement from the young men of the state. Senator Yopp of HaZen is the man now mentioned as a possible candidate. Serator Yopp who has served four years ill the senate is said to be a strong man politically. One of his friends who was in the city yester- day stated he had talked with Sen atot Yopp on the subject, and had been informed that If the young men of the state who had not tue nerve to run themselves would get behind him, he would jump into the race and make things warm up all along the patch.

ARCHITECT ID
 BE EMPLOYED

Little Rock June 26,-The state capitol commission spent the en- tire day yesterday ill going over the building with Cass Gilbert the New York architect who is here meeting with the commission, and in discussing the question of his employment by the state. A de- cision will be reached today in the matter, and it is thought Architect Gilbert who has the reputation of being the foremost architect in the United States, will be employed to supervise the completion of the building. The commission is also today discussing plans for starting work oil the building but nothing definite in this line will be decld- ed upon until after an architect has been employed, as his advice is wanted in that matter, Cover, nor Donaghey intimated last night the entire work on the building would not be let all to one con- Cern, as better results could be ob- tained by letting different portions of the work to concerns which make a specially of that character of business. A portion he stated would probably be done by the day on force account, but the architect would govern this to a great extent. Should Architect Gibson be chosen, he will spend a good portion of his time ill Little Rock, supervising the completion of the building.

 Mrs. Bernie Babcock of Little Rock, who is well known over the south as "The Sketch Book Lady" spent yesterday i'll the city in the interest ot her handsome littlepubication and also introduc ing to Conway readers her latest book, The Man who Lied on Arkansas and What Got Him. ' By issuing ne of the handsomest publications in south, filling 1t chock full of facts and pictures showing the greatness of our state and circulating it extensively throughout the north and east, Mrs. Babcock is doing perhaps more than any other journalist to remove the false impressions of Arkansas held by people who have gained their knowledge of the state from such vicious publica- | tions as "A Slow Train Through Arkansas" and the like.

UNCLE SAM IS EXACTING
Discrepancy of One Cent Causes Much
 Official Correspondence.

Little Rock, June 26.-Uncle Sam is an exacting chap. He does not care so much for the money, but he insists that all his depart nents shall come up to the mark and not one cent off balance will he permit their account to be. The lronclad rules of the treasury department, with the red tape which governs the handling of Uncle Sans money, caused con siderable correspondence of an amusing character to pass between Capt. F. w. Tucker, internal rev emu gent for Arkansas, and the secretary of the treasury, and t was all over cent.
 In making a remittance about four months ago, the internal rev enue office making a remittance here was checked mp at Washing ton one cent off. The penny was derosited in the Exchange Nat iona1 Bank, subject to check by the secretary of the treasury. This method dd not suit the august parsonage who handles the coin of Uncle Sam and he wrote back how the shortage should be turned over to him. The matter finally settled yesterday afternoon when Capt. Tucker made out a check for one cent made payable to the secretary of treasury, and mailed it to Washington. Thus much time and expense has been expended to get to the United States treasury the lone penny which was deposited in the bank here to make up for the clerical ov ersight.
