disappeared ON FelBuary 26. 1905, is
legally dead I'm making this ruling to-
day the supreme court fixed the date

survive his aunt and his estate could
not share in the fund.

He belonged to q prominent family and
for months an active search was made
for him.

Scott, a we'll known farmer of this
place, planted nine acres in long sta

Scott picked five bales, which brought
him $4S2, and he has the seed left,
which he is selling at so cents per

Railroad streets, valued at $21 900, at
o'clock this morning. The plant
was owned and operated by Adolph
Hart, president, and E. H. Hart, sec
retary and treasurer, and was only
partially insured. f. II. Hart would
not divulge the exact amount of insu-
rance, but said it would not nearly
cover the loss.
Amos Stewart, negro watchman,
awakened from a big Morris chair in
the office by gusts of smoke, found
himself surrounded by flame, and
barely escaped with his life. He was
severely burned about the head hav-
ing all his hair scorched off and his
hands were badly burned.

IN the grand Democratic rally last

brilliant and lengthy pageant and
as the parade marched through the
principal streets of the city they were
cheered heartily When they arrived
at the public square an immense
lcrowd had gathered around the huge

speeches We're made. S. W. Rogers,
president of the Wilson and Marshall

occasion with a few well-chosen re-
marks. The first speaker on the pro-
gram was Governor G.. W. Donaghev.
who made the principal address of
the evening. The governors speech
was received with great enthusiasm.
lie seemed glad to be at home once
more, among old neighbors and
friends, and the vast audience seemed
to vie with each other in according
him welcome. Governor Donaghey
congratulated the people upon the
great Democratic victory won in the
recent election, and referred to the
| part he took in the celebration in

and laughingly remarked that he lost
good s. hat that night in the high

ber of the celebrators threw their
hats into the bonfire. He also thank

Donaghey as "our candidate for the
United States senate when intro
ducing him to the audience, and other
i speakers mentioned this fact also,
but the governor did not refer to his
candidacy at all, his speech being
purely one of congratulations and re
joicfng over the big Democratic land
slide.

FEDERAL OFFICES TO TO BE
FILLED BY DEMOCRATS
FIRST TINE IN 20 YEARS.

Little Rock, Nov. 11.-One of the
greatest and most direct effects of
the Democratic landslide, in Arkan-
sas, is the transfer of the federal pa
tronage from the Republicans to the
Democrats. With the exception of
the Cleveland interregnums, the Re-
publicans have had control of all fed
eral offices in the state since the war.
and now the Democrats are once
more coming into their own. And
there will be no lack of aspirants.
They had already begun circulating
petitions when the returns from
Acushnet We're announced at 1 o'clock
the day of the election. And now
they are everywhere getting busy.
The federal patronage in Arkansas
is worth in round numbers, s240, 900
a year, and there is a lack of SINGER
ity in the Republican remarks, 1--WE
don't care, we have the cream of it.
anyhow This patronage is distrib-
uted as follows:
