Prescott Insurance Man May Set State Plum-Duley 10 20 to
 Mobile Reunion.

Little Rock, April 21.-The frost ot Monday and Teusday nights has done much damage to the cotton crop of the IoWlands of Arkansas, according tc reports which are now being re- ceived-fn the city Superintendent Fitcock of the Arkansas penitentiarv, Thursday received a report from the state farm, showing that 200 acres of the cotton had been killed and would have to be replanted There were 6e0 acres of cotton on the farm up at the time the frost came. Superin- tendent Pitcock gave orders to have the damaged cotton replaced at once by repIanting. This will only lose the State little time and make the crop later in maturing. but the state has plenty of labor so the loss is not very great. The wet weather had as much to do with the damage TO the cotton as the frost.
 Col. John NJ Oracle, who owns the largest plantation in the south, has returned from his plantations at Han- naberry and New Gascony and re- ports the frost did considerable dan age there but replanting will save the oron

The ceremoniss carried out by the Fuss Moore Baraca Class of the First Baptist church. yesterday evening at e:3o o'clock when it broke ground for the new Baraca Hall were very impressive. The services were held on the East lot of the church proper Y where the Ross Moore Memorial Hall is to be erected, as home for the big class.
 \ large number of Baracas, men women and children assembled in the open Frank B. Ezell, president of the class, presided over the ceremon- ies.
 MT. Ezell opened with brief talk. in which he gave many encouraging and inspiring words to the Baracas present. He told in few words of the class from it's organization about five years ago with only seventeen members until now in it's greatest era of growth and prosperity, with an am- hition for doing the greatest good to mankind by it's work.
 MT. Ezell concluded his remarks by introducing General Secretary H. |. Bowling. of the State Sunday school association. MT. Bowling in a few well chosen remarks told of his ap- treciation and admiration of the class, stating that the class was beginning plan that would have place in the name of the Sunday School work of the state and would be an aid in rais- ing the other classes of the Union to the perfection that the Ross Moore class has attained. The brief infor- nal program was closed by prayer led fv Rev. s. E Full, pastor of the church and teacher of the class.
 The dirt breaking proper began E9hen Mr. EzeIl conferred on Rev. Tull the distinction of lifting the first spade Of earth from the ground Rev. Tull spoke of the honor bestowed upon him i'll few words, and advanced with spade in hand. Amid cheers he plung. ed the spade into the earth and brought forth large lump of earth the first stroke made on the erection os Baraca Hall.

Many more Of the Baraeas used the spade follow ing the ceremonies proving their Ioy- ality to the class to which they are so devoted.

quest of Governor Donaghey and Sec letarF of State Ludwig, the committee appointed with him to make prepara- tions for tie removal of the eonvicts from the old penitentiary building to the new one, for authority to engage foreman to supervise the work Of placing the new building in readiness fer occupancy. He desires to have the changes made so that the convicts can be moved to the new building by September L
 The old penitentiary buildings are now on the new state capitol ground and are used merely for offices, hos p:tal, and a place of detention pending the removal of new convicts to the contract camps or the state farm. It s the plan of the penitentiary officials to make nothing more out of the new penitentiary which is located several miles outside the city and which was partially completed several years ago. Ill order to make it habitable there will have to be sewer connections made, the outer walls completed and office building erected. This will re- quire the expenditure of about 8. GOO.
 Supt. Pftcock has also asked the penitentiary board to purchase for the penitentiary Black Maria in which to transport the newly arrived convicts from the railroads stations to the new penitentiary. At the present time the convicts are either valked from the stations or carried to the peniitentiary on street cars. This will be out of the question with the new institution, which is at least two miles from any city car line.
