PEN COMMISSION
 VERGE RETIRING DEBT
Losses Sustained by Flood Amounted to $500,0OO-Cot- ton Crop This Year One of the Best Raised-Price Better.

For the first time since the organi- zation of the Commission the Arkan- sas penitentiary is on the verge of retiring its debt and once more plac- ing itself on a cash basis. And this despite the heavy losses sustained by the floods last year, which caused a property loss of $50,OOO in buildings, $ feed and machinery, and forced 1500 acres of the best land inside the levee where it is fin only for pasturage, most of it being under two to six feet of sand.
 On the first of October the indebted ness of the penitentiary approached S300,000, not including the $2000O0 for the new farm in Jefferson county. The cotton crop this year is one of the best ever raised, and the price is very high, all of it being long staple that sells for seven or eight cents more than the short staple. It is estimated that there will be 1700 bales raised on the Cummins farm, 900 to 1000 bales on the Tucker farm, and about 250 bales on the $50 acres that was rented from Rice & Son near Warner With the cotton selling at 22 cents and more, and the seed at $45 ton, it may be seen that the crop will provide revenue that should wipe out the old indebtedness, pay the first annual interest on the purchase of the Tucker farm, and pay the $70,00O which the equipment and stocking of the Tucker farm cost. The buildings that have been erected are ideal ir every respect and would be credit tc the penal institutions of any state There is 5000 acres in cultivation al the Cummins place, and 1000 acres are to be cleared, and about 2700 out of the 4300 acres on the Tucker place is under cultivation.

Stiff knees, aching limbs, lame back make life burden. If you suffer from rheumatism, gout, lumbago, neu- ralgia, get a bottle of Sloan's Lini- ment. the universal remedy for pain.

For strains or sprains, sore muscles or wrenched fragments resulting from strenuous exercise, Sloan's Liniment gives quick relief. Keep it on hand for emergen- cies. At your Druggist. Poe.

to the Telegraph, "that a certain no
bic peer parted with a celebrated
Italian picture for America, and is it
not to be presumed that the proven
bal sum of 100000 pounds has been
obtained? Supposing then that Lord
D'Abernon's bill had become law, it
is evident that Turner's would not
have supplied the required demands,
and in order to make the purchase the
trustees would have been obliged to
dip into the Dutch collection"
A strong appeal is made on senti-
mental grounds. The pictures were
obtained by requests and it is consid-
cred unfair to deceased donors to
have their gifts traded with, or the
National Gallery changed from a
permanent resting place into an oc-
casional auction mart"

guished painters and sculptors on the
ground that it Involves serious
breach of faith. Another objection is
that it would break up the works of j.
M. w. Turner, who is ranked by many
as the greatest artist this country
has produced and the greatest land

In formal protest to the Prime
Minister, a score of noted painters
and sculptors declare that the pro-
posed powers have never yet been
given to similar board of trustees
by any state or legislature. They
say that the immediate result would
be to discourage prospective donors
and testators and that no future pur-
chases could compensate the nation
for the destruction of the Turner col

Supporters of the bill say that the

appreciated and could easily be. sold

more wonderful masterpieces. Led by
Lord D'Abernon, the author of the

ENGLAND SEEKS To

London, Dec. 30.-(Correspondence
of the Associated Press There is a
peculiar appeal to the art world of
America is the proposal now before
the House of Lords to sell famous
pictures in the National Gallery in
order to provide funds for the pur-
chase of still more noted paintings
and thus stem the flow to the United
States. America is the only country
buying works Of art just now. Re
cent sales to noted collectors in the
United States of some of the great
pictures in England have alarmed
the local art world.
But the proposal which authorizes
the trustees to sell works of art
which have been bequeathed or
given for the benefit of the nation is

In the meantime Dr. Conklin and two hos pital apprentices had been busy ad- ministering to the needs of per sons in the immediate vicinity of the town proper, who were suffer ing from exposure and cold caused by getting wet. After the inter view with Mir. -, Ensign Bry- an determined to stay and sent mes sengers back to boats ordering all stuff sent around to Chula Vista, under the directions of Capt Sam- son. These stores did not reach Chula Vista until about 9:30 p.m. as it had been the intention of En- sign Bryan to establish 8 camp at the Mexico and San Diego R. R. depot near the trestle. Under the supervision of Capt. Samson, the supplies were placed in the boats and taken to Chula Vista. Dr. Con- kiln having gone off to attend to sick persons and unaware of the fact that 0tay was to be made the head quarters, made his way to the depot and went with the boats to Chula Vista. Permission was given to make the schoolhouse our head quarters, which we did at dusk after breaking the paddock on the outer door. Fires were built in both sto- yes and the men dried out their clothes, for between having waded water, mud and quicksand sometimes waist deep and the rain, every one was wet through. A wagon was sent for our stores. At eleven o'clock the wagon arrived. After getting the provisions in the school house a relief patrol was sent out and the men coming in were ins- tructed to take off their blouses and dry them. Every one then settled down to await the coming of day light. The hours were long as rest was near impossible, due to draft from places which could not be dis cerned with the aid of candles, The only man who really rested, it may be mentioned was the fellow who slept on the grand piano" in the upstairs room.
 At daylight word was sent to the families who had been found du- ring the night by different patrols as being in need of food, to come to the schoolhouse where days ration would be issued. Capt. Samson left early for town (San Diego) and by noon had additional supplies out
 
 from the Chamber of Commerce of San Diego County, to whom too much credit cannot be given for the way in which they came to the aid of the sufferers, This work being under the direction of MT. I. 1.
