With a courage that will not tire,
Being slow to wrath, but terrible
When reused to a righteous ire.

To spend his substance royalty
Whenever the need is there; .
To face his Fate and be bold to her

 BANK AT MORRlLTON

Morrilton is to have another bank. Last week J. J. Scroggin bought from Wm. Irving the lots just north of O. D. Earl Saddlery Co.,, 100x150 feet, and plans are about matured for the erection of a new bank building there on. As planned the building will be one-story high, 27x70 feet, of brick, with the probability that new store buildings will be erected adjoining it in the near future. J. J. Scroggin, who was born and reared in this coun- ty, and who acquired most of his wealth in Morrilton, is the promoter of this new banking institution. He informs us that he is not yet decided whether his bank will be state trust company or a national bank, but it will be capitalized at $50,000 at least, and stock will be distributed between local people. The work of erecting the building will commence in a short time and it is planned to have the bank ready for business by September l. Morrilton Headlight.

An imp comeGy, which will be seen at the Arkway tonight, is a laugh-pro- ducer of the rip-roaring sort. While an Irish family are eating supper an Italian dance is in progress in the room above. The plaster begins to fall on the table and the entire family are so scared they all run away from the table. When they ask the dancers to cease they only increase their dancing. Chairs, mortar hods, etc, are resorted to to hold up the ceiling while the son is sent to the lumber yard to get few blanks. The sons two bulldogs, which accompany him, run away when the boy knocks over an old washerwoman, dragging him and the plank after them. They drag him into the dining room of a stranger, around the table where the family are at supper, and,

MINISTER COMMENDS
 STEPHEN BRUNDIDCf
)R. JOHN H. DYE OF SEARCY WRITES OF WHITE COUNTY
 CITIZEN.

In communication to the Lonoke Democrat, pr. John H. Dye, promi- nent Methodist minister of Searcy, strongly comments the candidacy of Stephen Brundidge for governor. He writes as follows:
 Editor Democrat-I have personally known White county's most popular and most distinguished citizen, Hon. Stephen Brundidge, from his young manhood. l also had the pleasure of an intimate acquaintance with his father and mother With hosts of friends, have observed with pride and pleasure the rising tide of his growing popularity and useful ness both in the state and nation. It lis claimed by his friends and conceded by his enemies that Arkansas has nev- CT had an abler representative in the national congress. And as prescott ing attorney, he had but few equals and no superiors He is fully as force ful and convincing and as pleasing and persuasive as an advocate, as he is effective as a prosecutor. His bril- liant career as a statesman, his emi- hence as an exponent of constitutional law, his high character, his imperial intellect, his dauntless courage and his utter adherence of machine politics, have combined to make him the favo- rite of the people.
 "On important occasions, political, educ ational or religious, Presbyterian synods, Methodist conferences or Bap- tist associations, our gifted friend and eagle orator, Judge Brundidge, is cas- fly Searcy's first choice to welcome her distinguished guests. He was their spokesman when Vim. J. Bryan and Bishop Hendrix were here last.
 Ut is a safe prediction that the wis dom of his administration will be ann pie justification of the overwhelming majority his friends confidently claim the people will poll for him in the ap- preaching election.
 MT. Brundidge is not a member of any church, but has a regard for all of them His father died member of the Baptist church, and he has brother who has been a minister of that church for 20 years. His father in-law, w. H. Morris, Newport, buried here last Sabbath, was member of the Methodist church.

knocking everything over, dash out of the house, followed by the crowd and a shower of plates. Meanwhile, the Italians are dancing their heads off, the floor sagging and swaying. Just before the boy arrives one of the Ital- ians has fallen through the floor up to his arms. They try to pull him through, but, finding it impossible, they shove him back up. Just then the son arrives with plank. He puts it up. All the Irish people say, "Thank God!" and remove the chairs, hods, etc., they have been holding the ceiling up with. The plank is substi- tuted, but as it is only IS inches wide and five inches thick, it begins to bend, then breaks, and all the Italians, cell ing plaster etc., comes breaking through the ceiling The boob son dives under the table while the Irish grab all the Italians and throw them out.
