Prescott Receives
 Heavy Downpour
Four and Forty-Seven Hun dredths Rainfall Had Here Within is HOurs-Garland
 Creek Impossible this Morning.

The heaviest rainfall had here in years fell yesterday afternoon and last night. The government gaguc reg istered 2.37 inches yesterday and this morning showed that 2.1O inches had fallen, making total of 4.47 inches of rain within As hours.
 Garland Creek, a small stream which borders the northern part of the city was impossible for several hours this morning on the Okolona road. This road leads to the Rose Hill Dairy, which supplies most of the citizens of Prescott with milk and butter and few of them had this commodity for breakfast.
 The streets and cutters of the city early this morning were flooded and in the lower places lakes of water stood until almost noon.
 Reports from adjacent communities are that heavy rains were also had. At this place and in many other To- calities high wind was had, but little damage was done.

VILLA SENDS FIRST AN.
 SWER TO CONFEREES
Though Document Was Not Made Public, It is Said to be Favorable and in Line With That of General Villa.

Washington, Aug. 18.-Villa's re- ply to the Pan-American appeal for a peace conference among the Mexi- can factions was received here by Enrique C. Llorento today and will be presented to Secretary Lansing to- morrow. It has not been made pub lie, but it is understood to accept the offer of the conferees to aid in res toring government in Mexico.
 The first answer to the appeal to reach the state department came from General Campu Villa, governor of Lower California, telegraphed through the American consulate at Ensenada today. This is said to be favorable and in line with that of General Villa himself. A similar reply will be made by Senor Llorente on his own behalf tomorrow when he presents that of his chief.
 General Carranza's response has not yet been received, but it is known to be in course of prepartion. That he will endeavor to convince the con- ference that recognition of his gov ernment is the wise course to pursue and the only way to establish peace in Mexico is generally understood here

FORTY THOUSAND PASS
 BEFORE PRESIDENT
Grand Review One of Principal Features of Annual Encamp- ment of Grand Army of Re- public-Sept. 27- Oct. 3.

Washington, D. C., Aug. 19.-In the celebration of the Fiftieth anni- versary of the Grand Review which is one of the principal features of the forthcoming annual encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic to be held in Washington, September 27- October 3, forty thousand marchers will pass in line before the President of the United States and his Cabinet. This was the announcement made to- day by Col. George A. Bosley, of Bos- ton. the National chief of staff who is here making arrangements for the event.
 The Grand Review of the victorious veterans of the civil war which oc- cured in Washington immediately | following the close of the great strug- gle was one of the most spectacular military incidents in the history of the world. It was the most impressive pageant which had ever occurred in warfare up to that time, and elaborate preparations have been made by the old soldiers to commemorate 1t at their coming encampment. The line of march will be from the Capitol to the White. House along historic Penn sylvania avenue which today presents vastly different appearance from .4 o ba1f oantu,,v mp Wbpp the returning warriors passed in grand review before President Johnson, his Cabinet and the general staff of the army. It will rival any inaugural pa rade which the city has ever wit messed.
 The portion of the marchers will be veterans of the blue, most of whom participated in the march fifty years ago. but it will also include those who belonged to various army corps which did not take part in the concluding event of the Civil War. Augmenting the veterans will be the Sons of Vet erans and kindred organizations as we'll as troops from the regular army members of the Marine Corps, sailors from battleships, cadets, and indepen- dent military bodies as well as civil ian escorts.
 Washington citizens have perfected all arrangements for entertaining and housing the large number of veterans and their families as we'll as the great number of visitors who are coming here to participate in or witness the event.

SpCCIFIC LEVFES FOR
 SPECIFIC PURPOSES

There is disposition in several quarters to provide specific tax levies for specific purposes, just as levies are collected for the Confederate pen sions and the state capitol. This has been advocated for some years as the best means of raising revenues for the maintenance of the University of Arkansas. It has been advocated by President Futrell in his recommends ton that the school be placed upon a millage basis This would obviate the biennial controversy over the dis tribution of funds and by providing a fixed basis would enable the school to progress normally without depend ing upon the uncertainty of Legisla- tive caprice.
 Petitions are being circulated to in- itlate a law setting apart one half Of one mill of all state revenues for the maintenance of the four agricul fural schools This is not the first year that it has been agitated, but Is the first time that a movement TOT Its adoption has crystalized. Whe- 'her mlllage law for the University ana the Normal School will be initiat- ed remains to be seen.

LARGE INCREASE IN
 NUMBER PENSIONERS
Estimated that but Little Over 50 Per Cent Can Be Paid Estimated that 1900 New Names Have Been Added.

Notwithstanding the increased tax. levy for the payment of Confederate pensions, which it was thought would be sufficient to pay the veterans 100 cents on the dollar for the amounts, allowed, there has been such a heavy increase in the number of pensioners that it is estimated not more than 50 or 60 cents on the dollar can be paid. It is believed the increase will amount to about 1900, bringing the total number on the rolls up to ap- proXimately an aggregate of 10,900. The average pension is $100, so that it appears there will be total Of more than one million dollars allowed. The increase allowances more than make up for the deaths that occur during the year. In a majority O. cases, veteran pensioner who dies is survived by his widow, to whom a pension is granted.
 There is none who would deny the heroes of the Lost Cause the pitiful amount of aid that comes from a small pension allowance by the state, and there is no legislation, more pop ular in the General Assembly. Some have pointed out, however, the danger of too great liberality, which might lead to curtailment of the pension levy.

PARTICIPANTS HAVE SUITS
 IN THE SUPREME COURT

Little Rock, Aug. 19.-The tragedy which this week shocked the people of Helena has called attention to the fact that F. M. Owens and his wife, whom he shot at her home in that city, are parties to a suit pending in the Ark ansas Supreme Court.
 Owens sued for divorce and a de- cree of separation was granted with S125 per month alimony, and certain provisions regarding the children, but an absolute divorce was denied. The wife appealed the case, resisting the granting of any decree of divorce, and asking that alimony be increased to $500 a month, as Owens is very wealthy. Of course, the suit will abate when court reconvenes on Sept. 20.
