There is a rurnor afoat that the next session of the Indepen- dence county court will be asked to create q new township from a portion of Big Bottom and q number of prominent citizens of Newark have expressed them selves in favor of the scheme.
 The plan is to create a new<. township of the eastern half 0f Big Bottom dividing the town9 ship on north and south line, and give Big Bottom a slice on of Logan and Wycough to make up for a part of her loss of ter ritory.
 The proposed line of division begins on White River at the section line at the southwest cor- ner of section 26s12-4, and runs north on the section line, nlalf ing new township of that po ,tion of Big Bottom now iiI east of this line. @

 nfs CITY
Crowd Was Large But Not Re. cord Breaker Heavy Soil
 Breaks Up Parade.


 The Hagenbeck allace shows , reached Newport early Saturday morning over the Iron Mountain from Forrest City and the crowds of people who cali1s rom ! far and near to see the wonders of the great circus began to reach the city even earlier. l While the attendance is large, it { is far from being the record < breaker predicted doubtless due Ito the earliness of the season and lthe fact that little cotton money has shown itself.
 The big show put up their own city of canvas on the Remmel field below Sportsnlan's park and the ground in that section was so heavy from recent rains that the big wagons came near bog ging and cut up the roadway so badly that the shoWmen were compelled to abandon the pa rade and try road making, which was great disappointment to the thousands who waited upon the street to see the glitter of royal pageantry pass and again hear the toot of the old steam calliope.
 In the morning from the moment of early arrival of the @rains bearing these great shows every consideration is shown the public. The popu- lace received an early morning welcome where the trains were tinloaded, and viewed the inter- esting operation without fear of unpleasant experience. The train superintendents, m d through them their subordinates l have been instructed to be polite and courteous at all times, and 1 in no possible manner offend the most sensitive either by word or action.
 On the show grounds the same rule is rigidly enforced in all de partments, whether large ol

 q '|lP|S' IA ||| IlIST ( STRAIfs ! l! For rae tises Permitted And s Charges Officials With Fail s me a nf0rce Law. The grand jury for the Sep < e,aabaS term of the Jackson cir E yii ourt passed into history late Friday afternoon, when 's heir final report was received body honorably dis Tor a faithful perform I their duty
 neport was no sterotyped al Y modelled after the instru- inerts of previous bodies. It Twas not a huge bouquet in which there were roses for every off, cial, as is the case i1l some cam paign years. But it is a scath- ing criticism of practises permit Hted in the courts of many jus tices of the peace of binding prisoners over to the grand jury, in cases where the evidence is held not sufficient even for in- dictme1lt, and thus entailing heavy costs upon the county and depicting it's treasury.
 The grand jury declares the practise unfair and pernicious" and recommends that the coun- ty judge defer the payment of fees in all such cases until pass ed upon by the grand jury and then if the case is dismissed or proves only a misdemeanor, re- fuse the claim altogether.
 The jury also arraigned the county, township and municipal officers for failure to enforce the laws against Sabbath breaking . Aand profanity, declaring that the former is openly permitted in every town and profanity may be heard at every corner, inti- mating that some officers are guilty.
 The county jail was recom- mended for a thorough cleans ing and the county hospital man. agement was severely indicted for "deplorable and unsanitary conditions" some, of the inmates claiming lack of proper medical treatment and care.
 Following are the noteworthy portions of the report:
 We delegated a committee of three members of the body to visit the county hospital, which has been done, and the report,
 
 finding six inmates as follows, to-wit: Two white men and three white women and one ne- gro man, and one of these wo- men being almost blind.

|Sary ase elie Isel TIT sof. ten the defs llart ia guilty of an assault and bat tery only, and we find in some instances that tlae defendant is not guilty of Y of. Ifense, and if the justid lM the peace had tried the party asthe law contemplates he should, the county would have been saved a considerable fee bill. Often the justice sends a number of names Eof witnesses for the state and the only alternative is to sum- mon the whole bunch. When, if the jury had the deposition that should have been taken in the examining court the jury could have selected the most iapor- tant witnesses and thus saved the county several dollars eX- pense. We condemn the prac- tice of permitting defendants to waive examination, except when the grand jury is in session, as an unfair, costly and pernicious practice; a practice which puts. money in the pockets of officers and takes dollars out of the county treasury. And we re commend that the county judge defer payment of fees ia all such cases until passed upon by the grand jury, and then if the case proves to be only ? misde- meanor or the case is dismissed by the jury, refuse the claim al together.
 Just at the close of the work of the grand jury it has been
 
 casually made known to us that a species of gambling has ap- peared in the home of some peo- pie in high repute,. and we are of the opinion the practice by our good people is more dangerous than if carried on in questionable resorts. The very fact that some of our best ladies, church people engage in NEAR gamb- ling games such as card playing for prizes, adds to the danger and we call upon all persons who really believe in the perpetuity of the church and the moral ele- vation of humanity to desist from this demoralizing practice of playing cards in the parlor or in the home for prizes, If the practice continues we appeal to the County, Township and Mu- nicipal officers to do their sworn duty in the premises and should the officers fail or refuse to do their duty, we hope the next grand jury will investigate the matter.
 We have been in session ten days, have examined 139 wit nesses, returned into this court 65 true bills.

 We have also visited the county jail in a body and find that the prisoners are satisfied with their treatment, and find the sanitary conditions of the jail to be not what it should be, and recommend a thorough cleansing of all parts of the jail occupied by the prisoners, espec- ially the bedding and bed cloth ing in the cells. We further re- commend that the proper author ities have the connection to the sewer made as soon as possible.
 We have carefully examined the report made by the Commis- sioner of Accounts concerning the administrations of the va rious county officials, a copy of which $ hereby attached and made a part of our report.
