BROKEN PUMP
 AT LIGHT PLANT

A broken pump at the railroad well, from which the city light plant has been obtaining it's water, has crippled the plant to some extent since Fri day night. The water in the we'll at the plant is insufficient to operate the plant, but by running pump contin- uously and not operating the machin- cry Sunday, the current has been kept on the wires when it was needed. Superintendent Leverett, while hay ing the pump repaired at the light plant well, is working with Contractor Joseph McCoppen in an effort to have temporary stream of water supplied from the waterworks mains, and it is expected the new plant will be able to furnish unfiltered water in the mains to the light plant by Wednesday.

 FORGIVEN IN ADVANCE

J. B. Clements of Wooster this morning obtained licence to wed Miss Lila Green of the same place and few moments later the father of the prospective bride appeared in the office of County Clerk J. H. Bailey to inquire about the matter. Mir. Clem- ents had given his age as 21 and that of Miss Green as 19, but MT. Green said the young lady was not yet 16. After being informed of the issuance of the license, however, he said he would give his consent to the wedding, but he wanted the couple to know they hadn't outwitted him.

ANOTHER CRAZY
 NEGRO ARRESTED

Under instructions from County Judge J. A. Lea, who had personally witnessed some queer antics by a negro named Todd on the streets Sat urday evening, City Marshal w. E. Chbourn arrested Todd.

 NO ANNOUNCEMENT POLITICIANS STILL IN AIR
CANDIDATES FOR OTHER POSI- SIONS ARE APPEARING ALL
 OVER THE STATE.

Little Rock, August 14.-Governor G. w. Donaghey states positively he Will have nothing of political nature to give out this week, so it means another dull season for the politicians who can do no real work until they know where to place him.
 With the announcement of Col. S. M. Taylor of Pine Bluff for congress man in the Sixth distrist, the list there grows longer, and L. E. Sawyer of Hot Springs is now counted upon as the next probable candidate in that district. Politicians here do not look at it in that way, for they believe the entrance of Col. Taylor into the race, means the elimination of all except two or three of those now running.
 Several new candidates are now ex- pected in the race for attorney gener- al this week, for it begins to appear as though so many good men are be- ing urged to announce that an effort was to be made to spit the conserva- tive vote and put one over on the vot- CTS

 AREHORSE WHIPPED
ACTION OF MOB AT BEEBE
FIFTY MEN TAKE PRISONERS FROM JAIL AND LASH THEM
 SEVERELY.

Beebe, August 14.-As the result of the bitter feeling caused by the recent killing of Marshal Mercing by Tom Choate, an ail-ged bootlegger, mob of about 50 masked men broke into the city jail last night, removed a white man and a negro who had been arrested for bootlegging and severely horsewhipped them. They were then released with a warning that if they sold any more whiskey they would be lynched. Neither has been seen since.
 The men were Tom Smith, a negro, and Lydell Padgett, a white man. Both are said to have been convicted of bootlegging several times in the last two or three years.
 Mayor W. H. Abbington recently secured information which caused him to believe that Smith and Padgett were again selling whiskey and he de- tailed Special Officers Thornton, Hastings and Foster to watch the men and arrest them if evidence sufficient to convict was found. Sunday morn ing the officers arrested the pair. They say that both the prisoners had whiskey and glasse sand made several sales. The two were taken to the city jail and locked up, with Deputy Sher- if Dunlay Thornton in charge.
 Shortly after dark Deputy Thorn ton says mob of about 50 men, all wearing masks, came to the jail and at the point of a six-shooter compelled him to hand over the keys. The mob then took the two prisoners, covering and cringing and begging for their lives, to secluded spot some distance from the jail. There they were lash ed unmercifully and threatened with death if they continued their opera tions. The mob quietly dispersed Deputy Thornton says that he was unable to identify any of the members of the mob.

COFF|NS FLOAT IN ARKANSAS RIVER
R.L. GREEN REPORTS FACT
OTHER CITIZENS ALSO SEE GREWSOME SIGHT DURING
 PAST FEW DAYS.

Declaring that it was not "snakes in his boots," but genuine fact, Robert L. Green, who lives few miles north west of Conway, is telling story of seeing a coffin floating down the Ar kansas river while on fishing trip last week. Mr. Green has proof of two other citizens, should anyone dis believe the story. In company with w. W. Matthews and Jim Helton, he noticed the coffin coming down the river and called attention to the other men with him, who also witnessed the Grewsome sight. MT. Green said that the coffin lodged on sandbar in the middle of the river, where it remain ed until wave swept it from the bar. It then continued to float down the river as far as they could see.
 Will Hammer, who was on the river Wednesday, also reports seeing a small coffin floating down the river. MT. Hammer said that at first he was unable to tell what the object was, but when it came closer to him, he found out it was coffin of small size.
 It is supposed that the collins came form the Portland graveyard, located west of Plumerville on the river bank, which, it is said, a large portion has caved in the river. The cave-in hap
 ned several weeks ago, and it is bought that the coffins have been ating since that time. There IS nc way of telling how many collins from the cave-in are in the river, and per sons living near the river are on the watchout for them.

BOOKS LOVED BY THE BLIND

That Glow With Color and
Action.

Literary favorites of the blind might
By some be thought to be limited
chiefly to works of contemplative.

that inner life with which the sight
less are perforce so familiar. What,
one might ask. have they to do with
light and color. with visible shapes
ard outlines. with stir and movement.
as noted by the sense Of seeing?
And yet the blind even those born
blind, habitually US the vocabulary
OF their more fortunate neighbors, and
the verb ''to see is By no means ex-
clrded from their phraseology.
Thus It results that their taste in
books IS rather for the objective, the
pages that glow with color and are
alive with action. than for the intense
ly subjective.
The works circulated among the
blind of New York state by the state
library at Albany form an instructive
lfat in this regard. From the current
report we learn that Mark Twain's
Tom Sawyer" IS the best-resd book OF
the lot: Mrs Virgins "Rebecca" sto-
ries as almost equally popular; Owen
1visters The virginian" is . prime
favorite: and 50 Is Mrs. Gaskell's
