                             Filed: April 12, 1999
                                  ___________
Before RICHARD S. ARNOLD, WOLLMAN, and BEAM, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.

      Walter B. Farver, an Arkansas inmate, appeals from the district court’s1 order
dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action for failure to exhaust administrative remedies,
as required under 42 U.S.C. § 1997e(a), and for failure to prosecute. Having
reviewed the record, we conclude that the district court properly dismissed Farver’s
lawsuit without prejudice. See Brown v. Toombs, 139 F.3d 1102, 1104 (6th Cir.) (per
curiam), cert. denied, 119 S. Ct. 88 (1998). Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed.
See 8th Cir. R. 47A(a).

      A true copy.

             Attest:

                     CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT.

      1
       The Honorable James Maxwell Moody, United States District Judge for the
Eastern District of Arkansas adopting the report and recommendations of the
Honorable Jerry W. Cavaneau, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District
of Arkansas.
