QUORUM COURT MEETS
Hold Important Session Wednesday Tax Levy Same as Last Year
 Judge Presents Report

He Quorum Court met in special session Wednesday at the court house County Judge F. A. RoIfe presiding. lhe county judge submitted his an- nual report 10 the Court as follows.
 October D, 1911. To tie Honorable Quorum Court:
 In compliance with Section l499 of kirby's Digest of the Statutes of Arkansas, hereby submit the fol. lowing report:
 The financial reports this day pre- sented by the county officers show that We have used all the funds possi- bie in the building and repairing of bridges, and'I am now working the reads with convict labor. taking the worst part of the main roads first. It may seem to some persons that our progress is slow, but l can assure tou that the time and money is well spent. l have rebuilt the road from Forrest City To Wheatley by convict tabor, and from Tuttleton 10 Colt by contract, and several miles of other roads in the same way. and believe their present condition will last until Me have time to work all the other roads and have them in good condi- tion
 In organizing my convict force it was necessary 10 procure teams, tools. a prison van. and materials. such as cement, etc, and supplies for the feeding, clothing and also for guard ing the couyicts. All of such expen- ses have been paid out of the county general fund, as our road fund is distributed into the nineteen dis tricts, and it was impracticable 10 charge such things 10 the several road funds.
 And 1 ask that you recommend that the amount so used from the county general fund be charged to the sever al road funds in equal proportion and returned to the county general fund.
 We can now proceed with our road work and feel assured that within a 1 year all our people will be satisfied that our present system of road work ing is the best we have ever had,
 The public property is in good con dition, the plumbing in the court house having been completely over l hauled since my last report,
 We have but four persons in the poor house and they seem to be well cared for and contented.
 In the matter of the appropriations to the several funds. suggest the following:

 S32, 394 F
 As 10 the levy of taxes for the cur rent year l would recommend that YOU levy the five mill tax for county general purposes, and call your atten- ton 10 the fact that the county general fund pust pay the last pay ment for the Madison bridge, s6O777-50 and of course, the amount is reduced by that much, and the remainder will be needed in our expense account for the next year.
 And 1 also recommend the Is mill tav for rthe sinking fund and the three

 There is much regret express. ed among the militiamen of the state over the failure of Arkansas team to win any of the prizes in the National Rifle Match at Camp Perry. O. A team of nineteen, in com mand of Col W F Reichardt was sent to compete for honors. These men were selected from the two regiments of the state guard for their proficiency in shooting, and it was hoped that they would land some of the honors. It appears, however that they were put up against more seasoned veterans who have had the benefit of more extended and advantageous practic. The list of prize winners has just been made public and no Arkansas entrant appears among the favored.

member well how for many days before- hand the idea of being in time engrossed the minds of those privileged to be pres ent in the abbey. How ever to be up early enoughl To the peeresses, especial ly the idea of robing in full court dress ito say nothing of the coronation robes swhich none of us had ever worn before appeared sufficiently anxious work
 Such alarming threats of what must in- evitably happen If we were not up at cock crow, or if indeed we were a single moment late! Some there were who look ed on 10 o'clock as the earieSi possible moment for breakfast in ordinary cireum- stances; yet 6 a. m. saw many court beauties quite ready for the start And many weird tales were subsequently cur rent as to the history of the beautiful cultures seen that day amongst the peeresses (before the moment of the ceremony came at which they put on their coronets1. Many vouched for the fact that some had actually had their hair dressed overnight, and must have slept, like their ancestresses, sitting bolt upright in a chair. At any rate long before g O clock most of the peeresses had found their appointed places in the abbey
 And. thanks to the courtesy and good manag cement of the excessively polite but equally determined officials not a single contretemps, whether on the route or in the abbey, was ever hinted at"
