Little Rock, March 6.--The indica- tions are that Stephen Brundidge, of Searcy will be in the race for gover nor at the proper time. A significant interview appears in the Mammoth Springs Democrat as follows:
 q am being over-run with letters and telegrams from all parts of the state asking me to make the race for governor. From financial stand point, could not at all afford to ac- cept it, but believing that this great office has been worked overtime to further personal political ambitions. would like to see it used for while at least in the interest of the great body of the people of the state, and as soon as the genetlemen who have so generously undertaken to provide the method by which the next gover- nor of the state shall be elected, have decidede among themselves just what voice they propose to let the people have in the selection eff any) I will then have a definite and positive statement to make to the people of the state, l believe that another can vass of the state is just now much needed, much as l deplore continual tion of political agitation.''

CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY .OF ROMANOFF ACCESSION
MUCH POMP WILL ATTEND TER. CIUTERY OF BEGINNING OF
 NEW TYNASTY
Gear Drives Through Streets in Triumph Extend Amnesty
 To Many Sibcnan EXiles

St Petersburg March 6.-With mag
 nificant pomp the celebration of the
 tercentenary anniversary of the ac- cension of the Romanoffs to the Im-
 perial throne of Russia was opened
 here today.
 The entire populance of St. Peters,
 burg acclaimed the Czar as he drove through the streets at the head of a
 brilliant procession consisting of the Grand Dukes, the heads of the Army of the country.
 The Government secret service agents were especially active, turning back to the railroad station many strangers from other European coun tries, despite the fact that they held passports. To further guard the Czar against Mihilist plots, all suspicious persons hive been gathered by the police and either banished from the the celebration, or detain- ed in jail.
 The most vital feature of the pres ent celebration so far as the people are concerned is the general amnesty which will be etended by the Czar to thousands of his subjects who are now in exile or inprison. It is rumored that Nicholas II. will extend clemency to several thousand eviles who are in Siberia, and will lift the ban from all his exiled subjects in America.
 The visits to the cities which play ed an important part in the early his ,ory of his family will be postponed oy the Czar until May when the W weather will he more DrODitiOuS Tn his iteinerary will be included Kos tromo, where the first Romanoff a lad of sixteen years, was elected to the throne of Vladimir by the overs 300 years ago.

l San Francisco, March More than two thousand applications for concessions, filed by amusement pur-
 veyors in all parts of the world, have been received by Director of Conces- sions Burt of the Panama Pacific h. ternational EXposit on. Many of the concessions will be extremely origin al and striking. Eight of them will, in the opinion of Mr. Burt, involve an expenditure of more than two mil lion dollars. The concessions will be notable not only for their great size and their splendor but also for the fact that they are selected with g view to their educational value. The art of presenting cycloramas and panoramas upon an elaborate scale has made tremendous strides in the past few years.

THE surFRAGErTE PARADE.

The fact that there has been so much comment, favorable and unfav- orable on the Suffragette parade witch occurred in Washington this week, shows that the equal rights movement is assuming quite consider able proportions in> conservative An erica. The following editorial com. mcnt from the Washington Post of the 3rd instant is fair index of the way the wind is blowing:
 .The character of the women who will part cipate in the womans sui frage pageant forces serious recogni- ton cf the growing demand for equal rights. Even those who are Trevo- cably opposed to giving the vote to women must now admit that the movement is no ephemeral thing, but Will gather increased momentum as time goes. on.
 Today's pageant is significant not merely of the demand for woman $ suffrage, but of the ability and com men sense with which the women are directing their campaign. The whole country. even including the anti-sui- iragettes, regard with respect the women who want the ballot.
 It should be a source or pride to Americans that the wcmer have not forgotten their dignity, as has been tho case in England There the wo- men have shown themselves lawless and irresponsible. They nave proved themselves unfit to play any part ill the making of the laws or the enforce ment ot them. People who do not know enough to obey the laws cannot De expected to make or enforce them.
 American women. while fighting for tie ballot, have maintained the re- spect of the nation. Their parade on the Avenue today will be the climax of years of work. They have cap turcd fair proportion of the states already, and they are in a far My to capture more.
 The purpose of the paraoe will b5 to show to the country. and Congress particularly, the nation wide demand for an amendment to the Constitution oi the United States enfranchisins wcmcn.''
