WILTON EXCURSION.
THE FIRST TRAIN OUT CARRIES
TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY.
The Band Boys and Their Scarlet
Uniforms Right in the Push.
The first excursion train for the
Wilton Barbecue pulled out of this
depot this morning at 7:30. Three
coaches were hitched on to the en-
gine besides the combination car
and they were all fixed with excur-
sisnist or those rather who are go-
ing over to Wilton to share the hos-
pitalities of that people The re-
porter noticed General Manager
W. A. Williams aboard who will
watch after the interest of the ex-
cursionist. The band boys in their
scarlet uniform and shining horns
were aboard and will give the
natives of the woods such a treat
in music to-day they never listened
to before. The 10 o’clock regular
train it is expected will take others
to the barbecue and this after-
noon’s train that leaves here at
7:30 will be loaded down to platform
room only. We certainly wish to
see a good crowd go over and show
the Wilton people that we are not
amiss to their invitation to their
entertainment.
THE SILVERITES.
They Meet and Though Few in Num-
ber They Declare that They
are Still for the 16 to 1
Plank.
The “silversides” met last night
at the West side city hall and held
quite a session for a small gather-
ing. Dr. Burke was in the presi-
dential chair and Buck Whitlow
held down the goose quill at the
secretaries desk.
Dr. Burke made a short speech
(one hour) giving a history of silver
and its incalcuable value to the
world as a circulating medium as
well as its intrinsic value in the
manufacturing and art department
of the world. He showed where
every poor man’s baby in the land
depended on the silver dollar not
only to furnish it food but to cut
its teeth on. Tie was frequently
applauded with cries of go ahead
you are talking.
After the speech the doors of
the party were thrown open and
Alderman Tom Estes Kirk Bramble
J. G. Sabine A. G. Matthews J. W.
Smith and Card Lamb gave their
names to the secretary for mem-
bership.
Dr. Spearman was elected Vice
President of the club and thanked
the. members for the honors.
Mr. Eugene Wilson the job prin-
ter was voted a card of thanks for
presenting stationery to the club.
The club adjourned to meet next
Tuesday night at the East side city
hall.
Limbering Up.
Pete Wootton spent last Sunday
in the country and was so badly
"foundered" that he is likely to be
laid up for a long while. We
thought Bro. Wootton knew better
than to give rein to his appetite
('.ill.
You should know that a hungry
man knows no law of hygeine and
more especially does this apply to
the fraternity that has a dry apple
and water existence. Yes we are
much "foundered" but should we
be invited to another such dinner
the founder would be a protracted
one we fear.

ROSE PETALS.
HOW THE BATTLE OF ROSES AP-
PEARED TO AN EYE
WITNESS.
The Camden Beacon Correspondent
Says the Floral Carnival Was the
Crowning Social Event of the
Season.
The Texarkanian clips from the
Camden Beacon the following ac-
count of our "Rose Carnival” from
the pen of T. C. G. and it is so
couched in complimentary terms to
our people as well as theCamdenites
that we reproduce it in full and
sanction every word it contains:
“In compliance with my promise
I will write you a line about things
generally about things in the. Gate
City. For a week past there has
been a hubbub of excitement over
the Floral Carnival or "War of the
Roses” the crowning social event of
the season. No city in the state
has more pretty residences or more
beautiful (lowers than Texarkana
and upon this occasion she eclipsed
all previous efforts.
The parade was over one half mile
in length rivaling the magnificence
of its conception an Oriental pag-
eant.
A king with a retinue of dukes
duchesses guards and maids of hon-
or led the procession followed by
floats and docorated carriage rep-
resenting every industry in the city.
After these came the mayors in
carriages covered with flowers fol-
lowed in turn by visitors in carriag-
es wheelmen’s club on bicycles gaily
decorated ladies and geniemen on
horseback. Every business house
on Broad Street was profusely dec-
orated with flowers flags and bunt-
ing and at 5 o’clock closed to allow
their employes to participate in the
enjoyment of this their gala day.
After traversing the principal
streets the procession halted at
State Line Avenue and after the
challenges of the Dukes ol York
and Lancaster represented by lion.
Paul Jones and Hon. W. T. Hudgins
respectively the "War of Roses’’
began in earnest. The air was filled
with roses and for fifteen minutes
charge after charge was made un-
til wagon loads of flowers were scat-
tered in the streets. At 6 o’clock
the crowds dispersed from awnings
roof and curbstone and everybody
agreed that it was a most delight-
ful occasion.
The Camden delegates arrived on
time Wednesday morning and were
promptly domiciled at the Hucklns
House where they were visited by
the city officials ladies' conunlttes
and others.
I felt very proud of our boys and
girls chaperoned by Mr. and Mrs.
A. L. Morgan who did the honors
in great shape. Nothing was left
undone that could contribute to
their enjoyment.
An elegant german was given in
their honor at the city hall on Wed-
nesday night and on Thursday af-
ternoon an elegant reception was
tendered them by my hostess Mrs.
Dorrlan at her beautiful home on
Fifth street. Mrs. Morgan and
the girls captured everobody they
met while Aylmer Peter and the
doctor were no leas graciously re-
ceived.
The Normal school here opened
up under most favorable auspices.
Forty-three out. of fifty teachers
are attending and everything is
moving off satisfactory.
There were only four brides at
the Hucklns House Wednesday
night all married that day.
Hon. R. M. Wallace (our Minor)
and his brides nee Miss Jennie Kel-
so were among the number who
were receiving congratulations.
I hope the teachers ol Ouachita
county will at tend the Normal
there and that the people of Cam-
den will extend Prof. Cowling the
same consideration and kindness
accorded me by these good people
of Texarkana He Is a good t each-
er a Christian gentleman and wor-
thy ol the best.
Camden and Texarkana a re much
nearer together today than ever
before. T. C. G.

REVERSIBLEDECISON.
A case was tried yes
terday in the Miller Circuit court
wherein G. Less was plaintiff. It
grew out of a trade Mr. Less had
made with a Sulphur Springs
party for his stock of goods. The
Sulphur Springs man was to pay
him SSOOO and good paper that
could be cashed at the bank
for the balance. The par-
ties telegraphed utheir accept-
ance and Mr. Less visited the bank
and asked if the paper from the
firm would be good with his endorse-
ment without "recourse' that is he
wanted money on the paper but in
case the bank failed to collect from
the Sulphur Springs party he did
not want the bank to look to him
for money. The bank said the pa-
per was not good with such written
across the face and they did not
want it whereupon Mr. Less can-
celled the trade and asked the par-
ty to pay him damages for his trip
to Sulphur Springs and other items.
Mr. Webber and Dan Lary was G.
Less’ attorneys and Paul Jones and
an attorney from Sulphur Springs
were employed by the Sulphur
Springs Drni The paper offend
Mr Less was proven to be good and
negotiable when properly signed
and after the speeches the jury re
tired and brought In a verdict giv-
ing th" defendents the amount of
damages asked for by Mr. G. Less
The case of Frank Kendalllivs G. B.
Ellis was called and the trial pro*
cedded with.
A gentleman through attorney
Carter asked the court to enter a
plea of guilty to the charge of light -
ing against his son a (rue bill
having been returned at this sitting
of the grand jury. It was a case of
two adolescent youngsters lighting
over a young girl both smitten
with her charms. Judge Byrne
said he looked down with great leu
lency on cases of this kindas a mail
who would not light lor his girl was
not much account. He entered up
a dollar and cost against the young
man.

A QUEER CATER.
Alice Mitchell the Memphis Murder-
ess Again Called to Mind.
Bolivar Tenn. June 10. About
10 o'clock Sunday night with the
thermometer registered about 90
Alice Mitchell the slayer of Freda
Ward escaped from the room at
the Wostei n Hospital by unscrew-
ing w’th a case knifewhich she had
secreted in the wire screen in her
window. She left a note in her
room which read as follows: You
will find me in the tank." The cir-
cumstances were immediately re-
ported to Superintendent Douglass.
As quiculy as he could Dr. Douglass
proceed to the tank. He could
hear Miss Mitchell as she rolled
around in the water. The tank is
125 feet high and the top is reached
by means ol an iron ladder. The
tank had in it at the time about
3500(1 gallons of water. From the
top of the tank to the bottom on
the inside is a steel ladder. Miss
Mitchell held to this while she was
enjoying her bath. Dr. Douglass
on reaching the bottom of the lad-
der called to Alice and she answered
him asking; "What do you want?”
She climbed out of the water to the
top and looked down from her
dizzy height to the people below.
After a little persuasion and the
promise that the men would leave
she came down as gracefully as an
old sailor. She went to her room
and after changing clothes retired
for the night and slept quietly.
Whether Alice Mitchell had really
made up her mind to commit sui-
cide and at the last moment her
courage failed her or was simply
out I'li' a lark is the question that
is puzzling the hospital authorities.
