Frank A. Van Deren, who is or ganizing a national bank at Conway, spent yesterday in the city. MT. Van Deren's enterprise has stirred up no little strife in financial circles in Con- way and it now seems likely that the national bank and also a trust com pany in which he is interested, and another trust company financed by other interests will be organized. Not content with this, the postmaster has made application to the postal depart ment for postal savings bank. Con- way now has two banks and should he a good place for the launching of another; but one is reminded of the old saying, that too many cooks spoil the broth, and if all the proposed in- stitutions should be carried through it will mean the weakening of all.-Rus- sellville Courier-Democrat

Mr. Florence was 62 years old. He leaves widow, two sons and a daugh- ter Henry S. Traylor of this place was an intimate friend of Mir. Flor ence and speaks in the highest praise of his Christian character and his standing in Logan county. Probably no man in Logan county was held in higher esteem. He was a successful and prosperous farmer, and was leader in every movement to advance his county in religious and educa- tonal way. Prof Florence has the sympathy of Conway in his great be- reaVement.

ASKS AID FOR
 PANAMA FAIR

Little Rock, Feb. 24-At the morn ing session today resolution was of fered by Representative Buerkle to aid the proposed Panama Exposition in San Francisco with the support of Arkansas. The resolution was offer ed at the request of Col. J. L. s. Trav- is of Austin, Tex, an old newspaper man of the Austin Statesman, known in the sos as "Vinitia Jim" He was with the New Orleans commission while that city was fighting for the ex- position, and when it lost, transferred his efforts to Frisco, yielding grace fully to the decree of congress. The resolution provides that "as patriots proud of our common country, believ- ing that the south should especially lead in this movement to make the exposition the greatest ever known in history, we hereby tender our cordial support and best wishes to California in her efforts to bring the people of the whole world together to the city of the Golden Gate in 1915" He has already secured the passage of the resolution through the Tennessee leg islature.

BUT FEW PEACH
 BLOOMS KILLED

Now that the weather has moderat- ed sufficiently the actual damage of the recent cold snap to the peach crop may be definitely ascertained, and most of the growers in this sec tion express the opinion that the amount of damage will be small. s. R. Ethridge brought two Elberta twigs to this office this morning, which showed about one-fourth of the blooms to have been killed. The buds were apparently not damaged in the slight est degree. The buds and blooms are so profuse this year that all of them could not have been matured, and if no further severe freezes occur a full crop will be made

 NIGHT-NEW FEATURES.

"The Merchant of Venice Up-to- date" will be played again tonight at the Grand opera house by. the stu dents of the State Normal, who made such hit when they first presented the play last Saturday evening. On account of many purchasing tickets for the production last week and be- ing unable to attend from the fact that the weather was unusually dis agreeable, the play is repeated to- night. Those who purchased tickets last week will be admitted on the same tonight. The general admission, how ever, has been reduced to 25 cents. Those in charge of the play tonight state that several new features will be added and the whole production will be more interesting than the pre- vious one, and a packed house is eX- pected.

POSTMASTER BRATTON
 BEING INVESTIGATED
LITTLE ROCK M AN U N D F R SCRUTINY, BUT RUMOR IS,
 NOTHING SERIOUS.

Washington, Feb. 24.-For some alleged violation of the civil service act. Postmaster Bratton of Little Rock, Ark, has been under investiga- tion by the civil service authorities of Washington. This was admitted to- day by Commissioner McIlhenny and Secretary Doyle of the civil service commission, but neither would state the specific charge or charges upon which the investigation was founded
 Commissioner McIlhenny declined to discuss the investigation in detail, assigning as his reason therefor that the record in the case had not been completed, and until that consumma- tion the commission would have noth- ing to make public While the papers in the case have been transmitted to the civil service commission for con sideration, no intimation was given as to when a decision may be expect ed.
 It is understood that there are cer- tain features of the investigation which will be presented to the post master general. It seems that the in- vestigation of the complaint against Postmaster Bratton was made some time ago.
 From the tenor of Commissioner Me llhenny's limited comment upon the case, the commission has not unearth- ed anything of very serious charac- ter against Bratton. From another official sourse it was intimated that the charges against Bratton are of political character.

TWO MINUTE TITLE TALKS
ABSTRACT BOOKS

Are made up by going to the earliest records and reading them page by page and taking the land numbers mentioned and entering them, together with the other information wanted, on a page in the Ab- stract books reserved for that particular tract. In that way, you see, the whole history of a tract of land is shown on one page of the books, for every time We come to that land in the county records we enter it on it's pages.
 Of course there was vast amount of labor in doing it that way, especially when we had to go to Conway county and Pu- laski county for the early rec ords.
 Now, too, we went back and proved all our work, to be doub- ly sure, until now, should the county records be destroyed, we could practically reproduce them from our own books.
 We are in position to tell you about your title on very short notice.

One of the most brilliant and unique social functions ever given in this city was the annual Junior and Senior reception given at Central college last night by President and Mrs. w.
 w. Rivers. For the occasion the re- ception hall and parlors were banked with palms, ferns and cut-flowers, and here the brilliant bevy of young men and young ladies in the quaint and beautiful costumes of the eight eenth century were assembled. A vot- ing contest to decide the most pictur
 esque costume was enjoyed and pret- ty little miniatures of George and Martha Washington were given to the successful contestants. The guests were then invited into the dining hall, where an elegant siX-course menu was served. The color scheme was red and white. For decoration tiny flags and matches were profusely used. An immense screen of woven streamers of red and white with a large flag as a center piece divided the dining hall. The table was most beautifully ap- pointed. The hand-painted place cards were white hatchets with punches of cherries on them, and each place was marked with a small flag. Candles in silver candelabras with red and white shades lent a soft glow to the scene. The color motif was daintily carried out in each of the six courses, cher ries being used abundantly. The sandwiches in one course were little white hatchets tied with red ribbon. The ice cream was a mound of white heaped with cherries. The individual cakes were also white with bunch of red cherries on them. Everywhere the personality and artistic taste of the charming hostess was felt and seen, and the evening throughout was one of continuous delight. Music was furnished by Misses Farmer and Archer of the Central conservatory.

Chicago. Nov 2s.-There were rev
buyers on the horse market. Sales
were forced and at a discount. Tne
quality of the receipts was only fair.
BUYERS are staying away this week be-
cause of the light week caused by
Thanksgiving day and the opening OF
the international livestock show. when
there will be- no horse market. All
kinds dragged and the auctioneer had
to make several starts on most OF the
stuff in ordeE to. get bids coming. A
sound chunk Of 1900 pounds IN good
condition, went at, $3.50 and others In
proportion.
The receipts for Monday were esti-
mated at SOC. compared with 351 last
Monday, 336 a year ago and 2lO two
years ago. Buyers are expected to pc
scarce all week, and those that DO
make the market will leave early IN
order to get home for Thanksgiving.
The chances Of the market lettering
itself this week are very small.

plucky and managed to climb into the
machine and get hold Of the lever and
stop the auto just before it was about
to butt into the plate glass window OF

is that the lad was not very severely

little or no damage to his person.
