the war in Mexico created a STAN

DIAMOND FEVER
 E I>E"iNDiED
Five Carat Stone Found !n One 0f The Pike County
 Fields.

Murfreesboro, Aug. 18. - Fresh excitement in diamond mining circles prevails as the re- suit of an important find on the of the American Mining Conpa- ny's property Tuesday. Reece Lamb, the conlpany's vice pres ident, had dug ditch about 75 yards long with holes dug along it every few feet. From one of these holes he took a small quantity Of peridotite in a con- mon meal sitter, and from the second sifterful washed 2 per- feet white diamond of five ca- rats weight.
 This is the twentv-second gem yet found by this company, their work hitherto having been more of a testing character, to deter mine the extent of diamond bearing earth, rather than washing for diamonds. The American diamond mine is con- tiguous to the Kinberlite dia- mond mine, and is two and g half miles northeast of the Stifft-Reyburn property, and is a little more than mile north east of the Ozark Mining Con- pany's property.

Sell Drainage nOnd~. :.

Piggott, Aug I7-The St. Francis drainage district Clay and Greene cou1lie. sold it, is- sue of bonds recently. cons sting of $260,000 tWenty-#eaI bonds drawing 6 per cent interest per annum, at par. This is the se- cond lot of bonds sold by this drainage district within the past two and a half years, the total amount being S500,00O.
 The St. Francis drainage dis trict will have, when completed, thirty-five miles of main ditch from twenty to sixty feet wide, running parallel with the Cotton Belt railroad through Clay and Greene counties, and a leVee fif- ty-five miles long on the St. Francis river large enough to prevent overflow of the river during the highest stage Of wa ter, besides numerous laterals running into the main ditch. This system of drainage drains something over 10000 acres of as rich and productive lands as can be found anywhere in the state of Arkansas.

NEWSPAPER MAN IN
 f!GHT WITH MAYOR
(. E. Palmer, Editor of Fouy States Press, and \, 5. De-
 LOach Come to Blows.

TeXarkana, Aug. 1S.-A mild sensation was caused on West Broad street today by person. al encounter between C. l.. Pal mer, editor of the Morning Four State Press, and A. B. DeLoach, mayor on the Texas side.
 It appears that some recent personal allusiOns in the paper displeased the mayor, and he sent the editor word that if there was any repetition of the same he would whip him.
 This forenoon the parties met, and Palmer asked DeLoach if he had sent such message, and was answered in the affirmative. But you can't whip one side of me-" calmly replied the neWspa- per man. "You are a d-d liar, ; retorted the mayor.
 Palmer's fist shot out, land ing on DeLoach's cheek, and the mayor countered, knocking Palmer's eyeglasses off. By islanders then interfered and separated the conbatants be- fore any serious injury resulted to either.
 The trouble is said to be trace able to the recent prohibition election or matters connected herewith. Palmer is an anti, while LeLoach is one of the leaders on the pro. side.

Flood Damage Tn Sharp.

The most damaging overflow this county has known in many years resulted this week from rain which began to fall Sunday morning and continued practi- cally without cessation until Tuesday morning. It is declared by all that this flood is greater than that of 1882, which had been spoken of ever since as the greatest overflow this section had ever witnessed
 Those who know say that Strawberry River was several feet higher this week than in 1882. Crops along that river and along Piney are in many in- stances practically ruined. Cot ton and corn crops on these streams were exceptionally good.
 On Strawberry river Monday and Tuesday water stood in n1a- ny fields to the depth of ten or twelve feet. Many of those who had crops on the river could not see any part of their crops, all being under water.
 On Piney the damage was al- so great. Mill Creek was also on a rampage and contributed it's share to the disaster.
 The steel bridge over Straw berry two and a half miles north of town, was swept from it's piers Tuesday. A report reached town Wednesday that the big bridge near Poughkeepsie had gone down, but we have been un- able to get that town by tele- phone, therefore cannot verify the report. A telephone mes sage from Franklin says the bridge over Strawberry at that place is gone. The river rose several feet higher than the top of the bridge near his own. The total rise in Strawberry must have been something like 25 feet.
 The flood has damaged Sharp county thousands and thousands of dollars in devastation of crops and in the loss of fencing and washing of land, and the full loss by the calamity cannot now be estimated. - Sharp County Re- cord.
