 A committee from our body visited the county poorhouse: this committee reported that they found eight in. mates, four whites and four negroes; the, condition of whites was found to be satisfactory. but the negroes were ragged and dirty; we recommend better ventilation for poorhouse, and Woulo suggest that the county Judge Vlslt It at least once year.
 We visited the county jail in a body and found conditions satisfact- ory, as to the cleanlinless: we found the prisoners were somewhat crowded owing to inadequate cell room: we !ound sixteen prisoners confined in jail Including two from Cross county and two U 5. prisoners; they seem to be sat- ned with treatment received: we recommend more cell room and bath. tub, if possible.
 All magistrates have made their reports according 10 law, with the exception of Alfred Ashworth, who, we are informed by the clerk, is con. llned in hospital in Helena, unable to attend to business.
 From the report of commissioners Of accounts we find that inc hooks and accounts of the county are in good condition. We desire to express our thanks to all the officials with whom we have had dealings for cour- tesies shown us.

GOVERNOR FUTRELL
 SENDS TENTS
Ex'Senator DeRossitt, Consignee, Says shipment is Just Large Enough to Make People Mad, But is Best
 That Can Be Had at Present

A favorite expression of citizens who reside and own lands in the St. Frances valley, is, that Crowley Ridge is always overflowed before the flood waters spread over the bottom lands,'' but the high water scare reached Forrest City "Wednesday morning, when ex-Senator F W i,,- kossltt received letter from Cover nor Futrell stating that he had for warded twenty tents to Forrest City to be distributed among the people of the St. Francis Valley who were hur- rying to places of safety on the high ground of Crowley Ridge in this vi- cinity. Many citizens here, foremost among whom may be noted County Judge E. A, Rolfe and Capt. John Young, who have holdings, and who employ large number of negroes and teams in the valley, in their farming and timber operations, are feyerishly engaged in getting their property to places of safety.
 Capt. Young has already made req uisition for ten tents and Senator DeRossitt said this morning that the supply that had been shipped him from Little Rock. was just large enough to make the people mad, and, that if the flood reached anything like it's 1912 proportions, at least 250 or 300 tents would be needed in which to shelter the refugees. The senator said that Forrest City and vicinity was the natural and logicai rendez- yous for large number of citizens re- siding in the flood zone, more than 5000 having been cared for from this point last year, and that some imme- diate steps should be taken to meet the emergency should the worst flood fears be realized.
