FIRE AT COTTON YARD
Officer GOodner Smells Smoke in Time to Prevent Serious Loss
 Last Friday Night.

There was a close call for a bad fire at the cotton yards Friday night, but it was discovered in time to prevent a loss except on a part of two bales.
 Night Officer Dave Goodner, while making his rounds on the South side about midnight, caught the odor of burning cotton. He made a run to the cotton yard and there found a smoldering fire near the center of a pile of about 100 bales of cotton which had been rolled off on the ground Friday because there was no room for it on the cotton platform.
 An alarm brought help and the burning bales were rolled away from the rest and the fire put out. Noth- ing is known regarding the arigin of the fire.
 There was about SEQ, ,0OO worth of cotton on the yards Friday night.

COTTON COMING FAST
Market Strong at l4.35 to i4.40- Over 100 Bales Came h
 Yesterday.

Everything is cotton around the South Side now. Thursday the mar ket price was around 14.35 and the gnners, weighers and loaders were kept busy. Cotton Weigher Sims re- ports handling 103 bales that had been purchased from the farmers by the cotton men. It came from all over Polk county and many bales from Scott and Montgomery counties.
 Friday morning conditions much the same as Thursday with the prices go- ing to i4. 40 on a few bales.
 At the loading platform a shortage of cars has caused a blockade. The platform is full and the bales are be- ing billed on the ground around the platform.
 There seems to be strong competi tion between the buyers and the indi cations are that the home merchants are paying a little above the limit. One thing which points to this is the fact that a cash buyer who came into Mena couple of days ago had only purchased nine bales, and after call ing up his house by long distance phone has practically been out of the market.

CONNECTS TO BE GRADED
COIOrs of Uniforms 10 Be Furnished Prisoners Based on Be-
 havior.

Little Rock, Oct. l4.-Gray for con-
 victs without demerit of any kind,
 blue for those who have only a few
 demerits. brown for those who have
 strained the rules of the state prison,
 and then stripes for those who have fractured so many rules they are en- titled to no recognition from the pris- on authorities. This will probably be the report of the committee appointed at the last meeting of the Arkansas penitentiary board to consider the proposition of allowing the convicts of the penitentiary to wear some uniform other than the broad black and white stripes which has been in use many years. The change cannot be made until spring as the stripes for the winter suits have been delivered and this goods must be used up It is probable the cloth in the suits of diff ferent colors, will be the same as that now used for stripes. The uniform will be made up much in the same manner as it is now, in order to make it a uniform by which convicts could be identified should they make an es- cape. The members of the prison board believe the negroes. as we'll as the whites. will strive for the honor of wearing the gray suits, and the con duct of the convicts become better The uniforms for the boys of the re- form school, will probably be navy i blue and made sailor style. It is in- tended that these shall be worn only on Sunday and the first supply of i these will soon be delivered to the board.

BROKE RECORD FRIDAY
One Hundred and Twenty-Thrse Bales of Cotton Marketed = Coming
 From Long Distance.

There were 123 bales of cotton mar keted in Mena Friday. This is twenty more than the day before and and the largest of the season.
 Another interesting feature is the distance Mena prices are pulling the cotton to this market. Men were here last night and today from Scott and Montgomery counties, thirty and forty miles from Mena, some having other railroad points within less than ten miles of their homes. A Mir. Lock hart came in yesterday who it is said lives within six miles of Waldron. M. J. and D. w. Pettet from Sullivan, Scott county, Louis House and John Cheek from away over in the same county were also in with cotton. Mir Cheek says Mena is the only market, both for selling cotton and buying what the farmer needs.

money, a bunch of keys and his pock-
ct knife, taken from his pocket and
placed in a pile. No thought of sui
eide was entertained and the search
for him started along the railroad, as
his family feared that he had strayed
from home. II was while the search
