Reverend 4. M Middlebrooks, 34 years old, one of the wealthiest ana best known negro ministers and edu- cators in Arkansas, died at his home. No. 121S West Pullen street, Satur- day afternoon at 1:15 o'clock, after an illness of several months. He IS survived by his wife.
 Reverend Middlebrooks had the dis tinction of being one of the most gen. tlemanly negroes in the South and one of the most brilliant orators among his race. He was prominent in politics in this county in early days and was at one time 1nterna' revenue collector for this dis trict and deputy sheriff. He was Baptist minister for thirty years and taught school il Mississippi, Arkansas and Georgia for nineteen years, being a graduate of the Atlanta University. He lived in this city since 1885 and leaves an

Professor Joseph Booker and Reverend J. P. Robinson, of Little Rock, and Rev. E. C. Morris, of Helena. three prom inent negro ministers of this State, will conduct the services.

GOLD TREASURE
 MYSTERY UNSOLyED

Residents of Sherrili Neighborhood
 Believe That Pot of Gold Was Talk
 en From Hole in the Ground on
 Green Place.
 The Green place, large and old plantation about three miles from Sherrill, which until several weeks ago has been among the worlds most secluded spots, has recently been the seat of much excitement During this period, at frequent intervals, large freshly dug pits" have been found about the place which showed signs of search for hidden treas ure. The climax was reached the first part of this week., when one of these pits were found with an impress sion of a large pot at the bottom. Many theories are being advanced as to the contents of the pot, and it is believed by some that it contained a large sum of money. On the after noon before the discovery of the mysterious pit two strangers appear ed at Sherrill and claimed to be squirrel hunters. About sunset q third stranger put in his appearance, riding a beautiful horse that attract ed much attention, and there is little doubt in the minds of the inhabitants of Sherrill but that these three strangers were the midnight treasure hunters. Just few feet from the pit, is large tree wrapped with wire, part of which is imbedded in the tree. This is thought to be a landmark as some of the oldest residents in that part of the country claim that this tree has been wrap ped with wire as far back as they can remember.

Senator McLaurin preferred March

senator FORAKER suggested February

compromise between these two dates
and on that date the Senate will act
and send the compromise bin To the

a party measure, the means will be
found to put IL through the House
regardless of the Iateness of the ses-
