Breaks In Three Places.

Memphis Tenn, April 16.-The La
coma circle (Arkansas) levee near the
month of the White river and south
of Helena broke in three places last
night, according to a dispatch from
Deeson, Miss, directly across the
river from that stretch of embank-
ment.
Wire communication with the ter
ritory affected has been interrupted.
The Laconia levee is privately own
ed dyke and protects about $4,000
acres of rich farming lands. Laconia,
Henrico and Snow Lake are the most
important towns in the area subject
to overflow.
The greater part Of that territory,
however is already covered with
'back water" from the White river.
The water will return quickly into the
Mississippi through the White river
and will give slight relief to down
river points.

DEMOCRAT TO

AS CONGRESSMAN

Boston, Mass, April 16.-John j..
Mitchell, a Democrat, was elected to
Congress Tuesday from the 18th dis
trict after a three-cornered contest in
which tariff discussion figured promi-
nently.
Mitchel's plurality over Fred H.
Cutting, Republican, was 4,14S. The
vote for Norman H. White, Progress
siye fell 5000 short of that for Cut
ting.
The special election was necessary
on account of the election of former
Congressman John W. Weeks to the
United States Senate.
In the election last November Mr..
Mitchell, who was successful yester-
day, was defeated by Mr.. Weeks by
1851 votes.
The tariff and recently formulated
Underwood bill were the principal
topics of argument.

fire STARTED BY
A CRAZY NEGRO

- A fire on Mobile street this fore

building used as a negro hotel and
restaurant, known to the police as
tumble Eye" and damaged the roofs
on two nearby buildings, one being the
residence of Ike Ware and the other
a tenement owned by C. o. Eure.
The origin of the fire is charged to
an old idiotic negro, who is said to
have started a fire with waste and
rubbish in a lard can which he left
sitting on the floor.
The man was arrested and jailed
but no charge of arson will be pre-
ferred against him, owing to his men

When seen by a News represents

that he has been advised by attorneys
that the devices used by them are not
violative of the law. He also says
that the devices are very generally
used in this and other states in con
nection with the cigar business, and
explains that no one who uses this
method for procuring cigars is ever a
loser, as each throw of the dice oI
punch from the card yields the custo
mer at least one cigar, though he may
on certain throws claim as many as
ten cigars.
He stated further that if the courts
should decide that the devices are il
legal their use will be abandoned a

continue to use them as an adjunc

MONO-RAfL SYSTEM
WILL BE REMOVED

Washington, April 16. - Eating,
smoking and personal transportation
problems gave the Senate committee
on rules a busy time Tuesday at it's
first session under the new Democratic
administration of the Senate. The
committee finally determined upon
three projects important to the per-
sonal comfort of senator's:
A committee to investigate the Sen
ate restaurant in the hope that cost
of living can be reduced,
The defeat of Senator Tillman's res
olution to prohibit smoking in execu-
tive sessions of the Senate.
The removal of the new mono-rail
system in the Senate subway, be-
cause of its noise.
The mono-rail system, installed at a
cost of $4,000 to convey senators be-
tween the Capitol and their office
building, was attacked recently by
Senator Stone in a resolution. 1t is
claimed the railway, which recently
succeeded an automobile service
