MORMON COLONY OF
MORELOS NOT SUFFERING
But Mexicans I'm that Region Have No
Crops and Are Being Forced to
Leave for Other Parts.


Chihuahua, Mexico, April 10.-(By
Mail 1.-The inhabitants of Colonia Mo-
rales are reported to be in a prosperous
condition by bishop Orson Brown. who
is here from his ranch in that vicinity.
THE crops are all planted and they
were never looking better at this sea-
son of the year. said Mr. Brown
Grain is looking specially good, and
with a present abundant supply of wa
ter for irrigation it may be expected
that the yield will be bountiful. The
FIGURING mill at the colony is in per-
feet condition, and ready for convert
ing the wheat into flour as soon as it
has been matured. The colony is pro-
vided with good schools and the people
may be said to be contented. They have
in no way been molested since the in
surrection started, though several par
ties of revoltosos have been there at
various times.
The Mexicans are IN a bad way.
Some of them planted their crops, but
have since left and gone away. OthcS@
who joined the insurrectos have re-
turned to their homes, but they are
very uneasy and are doing practicallr
nothing in the way of industry, and the
land owned by the Mexicans below
Colonia Morales will produce scarcely
anything this year, and this fact will
leave them in destitute condition
"A1l are hoping that the expecta-
ton of peace will be realizld in the
near future, as war continuation must
necessarily mean great suffering and
privations on the part of the poor peo-
pie who are anxious to keep out of the
trouble. Most of those who have any
means have already left their homes
and gone to places they may remain
neutral

Party inspeets Military Road Work.

Messrs. F. W. DeRossitt. Robert hamilton. Capt. Jas. Russell. J. W. barhhart and Chas. Mcdaniel started out Wednesday morning to visit NIT .. r. McDaniel's camp on the old Nil. ltary Road, where he is at work sun. erVlsing the opening up of the ob- structed gap in the new route across the bottoms 10 Memphis. The party reached the upper end of Shell lake aoout twenty-three miles from this city, when the car ran over a stumn which could not be seen on account of high weeds and grass. The front axle of the car cleared the stump with ease, but just as it was over. one of the wheels slid into rut or hole throwing the transmission case with the whole weight of the car. down on top of the stump, shearing of the bolts that held it to the frame of the machine, bending the crank shaft and otherwise tearing things up gen orally.
 He car was running at very slow rate of speed. and this undoubtedly saved much worse wreck and possi. ply some injuries to the passengers. As il was no one was hurt. The party proceeded to the camp, where they found work on the road progressing nicely, and the Big Chief" very com. fortably domiciled and enjoying f.im- sell as k his won't. in being in the front and thickest part of the work.
 After spending some time here. MeSsrs. DeRositt, Russell and Hamil. ton proceeded over the Crittenden railroad 10 Heth. from which point they took the slow train to Memphis "Wednesday evening, returning to this city that night on the train reaching here at l:36. Messrs. Barnhart and Mcdaniel stayed with the car. which they had lowed back to the DeRositt kros Fishing Lake Plantation. where they spent the night. MT Bard Nich- ols went up Thursday morning in his E. NJ. F. and lowed the disabled car to the city, reaching here shortly be- fore II o'clock, The party was well pleased with the progress of the work on the road, and are looking forward with anticipation of much pleasure in making many delightful runs over it this summer. The accident of We'd nesday was an unavoidable one. one that could not have possibly been foreseen, and one of many similar events that are counted as "all in the days work" by the unselfish pioneers who serve their fellows as pathfnders in these modern days.

Handicap Trot aud Pace for July 4th.

Despite the fact that not enough enthusiasm and patriotism could be aroused among our citizens to insure successful celebration of the Fourth of July, Messrs, Sid Trapp, Eugene Williams, Rolfe Eldridge and Dr. c. S. Aldrich have gotten together and arranged for grand free-for-all trot- ting match, to be pulled of at the race track in the Rolfe & Williams addition on that day. The race is to be for a mile, to be run in three heats, and for purse of $100. The race will be handicap, and the following ami mals have been entered:
 Lady Eldridge, the queen of pacers, driven by her owner, Rolfe Eldridge, 100 yards.
 Lady Williams, the queen of trot- ters, driven by her owner, Eugene Williams, 50 yards
 Baron Phallas, who is too we'll known as the king of 'em all, driven by his trainer and part owner, pr c. s. Aldrich

 Slow Kid, driven by his owner, s. B. Trapp.
 MT. Trapp tried out his pacer, Hot Shot, at the track Wednesday morn- ing, and in brush with several of the other local speedsters, discovered, so he says, that his horse had every thing around this neighborhood out classed, and consequently shipped the animal to Memphis, from which city he came, and yesterday morning re- ceived handsome horse who rejoices in the name of Slow Kid, with which he hopes to shatter the hopes of all the balance of the amateur l horsemen.
 The affair is free for all, not only as i to the race entries bGt as To admis- sion at the gate.

Chancellor Judge Robertson is sitting in Chancery here this week. this being the first session of the St. Francis chan cery court held since the new arrange ment providing for three terms of said court in this county on the fourth Monday in June, October and February every year, instead of two terms on the first Monday in May and Decem- Der. as heretofore. One hundred and ten cases were docketed for trial at this new term. Among the visiting attorneys present on the opening date we note. Messrs. Wills & O'Daniels of Marianna, H. NJ. Nicely of Searcv;R. w. Creekmore of Water Valley, Missis- sippi, c. F. Greenlee of Brinkley and J. C. Brockfield of Wynne, Mir. J. c.

 wrote inquiring as to whether or not he had won any premiums. The letter informed him that he had won two books and that the writer was mail- ing them to him. He also incloses re- ports of their standing in the classes, showing Johns general class average to be 94. and that of Tom S5 for the year. This is a fine showing, and speaks we'll for the diligence with which the boys have applied them selves to their studies. The letter. as we'll as the reports, speak volumes for the young men, and from its tone they were very much loved by their teachers and schoolmates during the term. We congratulate the boys upon the fine showing they made in their studies, and hope the teachings of the good brothers. who had the guidance of their daily lives during the school term, will never be forgot ten, but will live as long with them as life itself shall last. and be produc- tive of much that is good in their future.
