ONLY FIFTEEN
 DAYS TO FILE
State Candidates Have That Brief Period in Which to Submit Their
 Expense Statements.

Little Rock, Ark. April 14.-Fif- teen days yet remain in which to fife statements of accounts by state candidates, of expenses in their cam paigns. Today is the last day for the filing of statements by county candidates and in this section of the state there has been quite a rush on the part of the small fellows to get under cover. With state and dis trict officials it is only those who had no opposition or whose expenses were small who have filed reports. It takes the state officials who had strenuous campaigns some time to get in their receipts so proper state nents can be made. J L. Yates, defeated candidate for treasurer, is expected to file his report today. Earle w. Hodges, nominated for sec retary of the state, will file his ac- count before the close of the week, and J. W. Crockett. nominated for treasurer, has his report ready to file. T. D. Crawford, unsuccessful candidate for Associate Justice has his report about ready to file, and w. F. Kirby his successful oponent will probably be able to make his re- rort this week. Gov Donaghey is working on his account, and c. C. kavanaugh is said to be about ready to file his. All of the candidates state they will have their accounts, properly certified to, in the hands of the secretary of state before the time has expired. George w. Bel. lamy, successful candidate for rail- road commissioner in the Eastern district, filed one yesterday showing expenses of s1. 337 .e1 which he says would have been larger had the con- cern for which he is travelling sales man not paid his railroad and hotel expenses. MT. Bellamy kept right on selling his goods while he was campaigning.

THE COOKS FAULT.
No Wonder the Bird Was Not Tender
 When Served.


 When Served.
 One of the most annoying things about swans is that they live to an extremely great age and that it is Impossible for the ordinary observer to guess what their years may be. President Grover Cleveland once had an amusing experience with some swans, according to writer in the American Magazine. He had been in the south shooting and brought home a number of wild swans. one of which he sent to each member of his cabi- net and to some other associates.
 "All the boys." said MT. Cleveland. "thanked me politely for having re- membered them, but none of them seemed to have much to say about how they enjoyed the birds.
 Carlisle, l found, had his cooked on a night when he was dining out. Another, when I asked him. said he hoped I wouldn't mind, but he had sent his home to his old mother. Thur Der didn't mention his bird at all for two days. Finally asked him about 1t.
 Thurber, did you get that swan all right?'
 "'Yes, sir-oh, yes, got the swan all right, thank you,' and he bent over his desk and seemed very busy.
 "'Fine bird,' said.
 ".Yes, sir. fine bird.' and he went on working.
 "'Enjoy eating him, Thurber?'
 "He waited a minute, and then he said: Well, sir, guess they didn't cook him right at my house. They cooked him only two days And he went on working without cracking a smile"
