He says there is absolutely no pros pect for an early cessation of the dry or hot weather, and while all records of S2 ye3rs have been shattor- ed, the weather manufacturer is ap- parently out now for a 30 yea re- cord.

Little Rock, June 15.-Thera will be no more school of instructions for the companies of the Arkansas Ma

There will be no appoint ment of a successor to Sergeant Hendrick. as the state militia is ill condition now to do without che .s.:- vices of an instructor from tho re- gular army. The Guard will thus save considerable, as the expenses ot Sel genat Hendrick had to be borne by the state militia fund. and this can be used for other purposes.

 Fireworks
ELARKSVILLE READY
Program Committee Knows What WiM Draw Big Crowd There on
 The Nations Big Day.

Little Rock, Ark, June b. All other places in Arkansas will have to turn to Clarksville for enter tainment on July 4. There will be only one big celebration in Arhnasas this year There he eagle will scream, the cannon will boom and the political bomb will explode with a noise which will be heard in every section of the state.
 When the committees at Clarks- ville were appointed to get up cele- bration for the Glorious Fourth, none had thought but what it would he the regular balloon ascension, fire cracker shooting and fireworks St night affair, according to standards of years past. The committee thought the same when it started out Webb Covington, late of the Arkansas Sen ate, member of the Big Four aud leader of the Regulars, being upon the committee, invited his old friend, II. h. IOuey, NtIe pISSlueHl 91 the Arkansas Senate, also member of tie Big Four and leader of the i,egu lars. Another member of the con- mittee, Heartsill Ragon, extended au invitation to R. F. Milwee. Speaker of the last House, to deliver the oration. Now the committee has two speakers on hand, unless President Toney declines, for Speaker MilWee has accepted. Speaker Milwae has not only accepted but requested that it be made joint debate, for he is aching to tell what he knows about the Senate to the people of Arkansas and he will take advantage of the Opportunity offered him rat Clarlzs- vile July 4. The attraction being so great, big crowd will certainly wend its way Clarksvillewar1 on Firecracker Day.
