Bedrock Not Yet Reached. Special to Independent.


 Little Rock, March 22.Bed- rock has not yet been reached by the general revenue fund of the Arkansas State Treasury, but $2000 will cover the pile to- day with little money being paid in. Auditor lobe has notified the Treasury department that he will not stop issuing warrants up- on the fund when the cash runs out, but will give the paper to the creditors of the state as long as they call for them, and let them hold them until there is cash in the Treasury to meet them. With the state pay day only a few days off, state em- ployes are beginning to wonder if they will have to dispose of their warrants at a discount. The general revenue fund would have been depleted Monday but for insurance taxes which have been paid in No collectors have ad- vanced anything to the state for nearly a week now.

Special to Independent.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, March 9. The House Tuesday morning passed the general appropriation bill carrying total of about $55O,- 1000, and it will now go to the senate. This is an increase oi about $40,000 over last years $ appropriation.
 The senate Tuesday passed the Kersch anti-amalgamation bill prohibiting the relation of the races, after about forty counties had been exempted. There Is a question whether the House will concur.
 Representa- .'e Russell, minori- ty leader in the House, made an intellectual attempt to secure re- cognition of the republican par ty on the state board of election commissioners. The bill pending adds the auditor and treasurer to the present board of three, and Kerwin moved to place back on second reading for amend ment. It is the understanding that Hurst will move to amend by adding all the state officers to the Board, the general opin- ion being that this is for the pur- pose of killing the bill.
 Senator Jacobson introduced in the senate a bill providing that cities of 45,OOO population and more may adopt the commission form of government. It will ap- ply to Little Rock alone, and is the bill that was agreed upon few days ago at a mass meeting held at the Marion hotel.
 Senator Watson introduced a bill providing that pawn-brokers shall not charge more than 10 per cent per annum on loans. Senator Keel offered a bill pro- viding that the legal interest in the state shall not exceed 6 per cent. It was proposed by him as a general law, but it was amend ed by Covington to apply to Jackson county alone, and made special order for Thursday.
 Mir. Newton offered a resolu- tion that the acts of the Legisla- ture be printed in two volumes, one of general and the other of local bills, but the resolution was not disposed of.

 Court.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, March 22.-Sweet Home, in spite of the pleasant odors indicated by its name, is a negro settlement five miles from Little Rock. Sweet Home has a regular Darkytown base ball team. The "nine," which in this case has sixteen members, like all other similar organizations, has a manager who waxes fat and wears good clothes.
 The treasurer is. the manager. There is usually something in the treasury and on stated occasions a committee is sent to Little Rock and the aforesaid committee re- turns to Sweet Home with an iron bound keg in the wagon, containing the beverage which made one city famous. A social session follows.
 Complaints reached the ears of United States District Attorney Whipple and he issued a war rant for the manager, captain,
 
 and two other lesser officials of the thine. Gus Hasker, ct al, appeared before United States Commissioner w. s. Allen to an swers a charge of violating the liquor laws and declaring that nobody aint' no nawthin. ' The assistant district attorney then determined that the government had made a mistake and gotten hold of the witnesses for the de- fense, and dismissed the case.

Something New Under the Sun.

1.-The Climax, T manuscript by the celebrated dramatist Ed ward Locke and music by Joseph Cecil Briel, is play that is diff flcult to describe you might call it the play that is different and you'd be about right. It is a play out of the ordinary, and proves there is something new un der the sun. As one reviewer says, Ut is a human play, play full of love, song, poetry and af- factions. You weep, you smile, you laugh, but never take your eyes off the stage.

Held Tn Ellks Home Wltn Large Attendance Of Members
 of Association.


 Representatives of a large ma iority of the banks of Group Two If the state association met in ! Newport Wednesday in annual convention and held a very en- th1siastic, entertaining and pro fitable all day-session in the hall of the Elks home.
 The association of bank CTS, like that of other business organiza- tions is for the purpose of bring inc all members into closer touch and better understanding with each other, to discuss and agree moon issues with which the busi- mess has to deal, and in their or ganization, this cooperation is brought closer home in groups of counties.
 Group No. ? is the last of the state association s subdivisions to hold it's meeting. This group is composed of the counties of Ma rion, Baxter, Fulton, lizard, Stone Clebume, White, Independence,
 
 Woodruff, Randolph, Sharp, Law renee and Jackson. Thirty-six state and national banks in this group are members of the asso- ciation and twenty-six are not members.
 z The meeting was called to or der by the chairman MT. T. J. Sharum, president of the First National Bank of Walnut Ridge with MT. Robert Neill, assistant cashier of the First National Bank of Batesville as secretary. Hon. George A. Hillhouse re sponded to the duty of well coming address i'm his usual se- rious vein of humor, declaring that rivalry for the honor be- tween Messrs. c. c. Henry and Mm. N. Dunaway had been so keen that neither would consent to allow the other to do the talk jng, thus he had been selected Rs a mmere figurehead to deliver a1 address prepared jointly by he two. The speaker carried Put this idea very ingeniously i'm cling which portions of his talk Eere fathered by each of the gen. lsmn named, bringing out con lderable laughter from his audi nee and making a decided hit, M was well attested in the ap- lanse received.
 Ar Hillhouse after expressing very cordial hospitality upon he part of the city to her visir 'm, not only by reason of the Qltal they represented, but to en as men of trust, integrity nd capability, dwelt upon the cath and resources of our city nd county. He pointed with fde to the fact that the bank sQosls of the city run IA mil l0n dollars and that our compress andles 65,000 bales of cotton a sar valued at over four million onars,
 M A M. Benbrook of Calico a0cf responded on the part of the 's''0fs with very clever ad-
 IN dwelling particularly upon

creation of a central bank and the guarantee of deposits.

Why the National Banking Sys < tenn is preferable for country banks Mr. E B. Chesser of ] Newark being absent. He dwelt upon the need of an elastic cur rency and the use of the treas Jury reserve as the most impor- tant problems before the mone- tary commission. Mir. Pollock stated that banks with $25, ,00O capital or under could best be run as state banks, but thought national banks offered most to banks of larger capital. He ad- vocated the enactment of the law before the legislature pro- viding for the supervision and examination of state banks.
 Mr. John Q. Wolf made an able talk in advocacy of fed eral guarantee of deposits of Ma tional banks and argued in favor of the parcels post. MT. Ben brook also made a strong argu- ment for the latter.
 Elegant Lunch Served.
 During the noon recess, an ele- gant lunch was served on the first floor. Three long tables were decorated in apple blossoms and the guests seated to enjoy a bountiful spread. Messrs. Hen ry and Dunaway had this in charge and were assisted in wait ing upon their guests by Messrs. Alcorn Ferguson and Charlie Sprigg.
 The lunch consisted of veget- able salad, barbecued pork and mutton, potato salad, old fash toned cornmeal light bread, pick les, olives, coffee and cigars. While the smoke of the last item was being emitted in dense curls, a few afterdinner talks were made that capped the very pleas amt social hour. MT. George w. Rogers boosted Arkansas and told a story or two that guaran- teed his ability in this line while Mir. B. T. Reaves was also allow ed the floor upon urgent request and made a pleasing short talk.

which the amendment was offered, but
Mr.. Graham held that the form was
correct
Mr.. Suowden stated from the chair

expected a reduction in the rate and
had been led to believe that this reduc.
tion would be made after the assess
ment hal been raised. He said he had

and we're given stone. ln conclu-
