Little Rock, Ark., March 5.—A re- | markable case of lost identity has| justcome to light at Casa, athriving town on the Choctaw, sixt-six miles above Little Rock. In response to; orders received from Paris, Tex., De- | puty United States Marshal John | McClure went to Casa this morning! and arrested J. A. Alexander on the charge of being a fugitive from jus- tice in Texas. To-night a Texas de- puty left with his prisoner for Paris, where he will be called upon to an- swer a conviction of eleven years’ standing. It appears that on May 14, 1890, Alexander, whose real name is James Huddleston, was convicted in federal court for -passing counterfeit: money and sentenced to a term in the peni- | tentiary. The case was given to the jury at 6 o'clock in the evening, and reached the state circuit court inthis at 11 o’clock the jury returned a seal- ed verdict, which was not read in court until the following morning. By some unknown means Huddleston learned the nature of the verdict and made good his escape, forfeiting a $5,000 bond, Since coming to Casa he had become One of the most high- ly respected and influential citizens of the community, and had accumulat- ed considerable wealth, He is on the bonds of Sheriff White and other county afticials for large amounts.

D., March 5.—A dis- pute as to the ownership of a cat has city, and it promises to become as noted as the celebrated Towa calf case, Ole Pinstad and wife claim to have loaned the eat to Mrs. Lewis, a neighbor, for the purpose of ridding her house of rats, Mrs. Lewis after- ward declined to return the animal, and the claimants asserted that she had appropriated it to her own use, and was holding it by force of arms, contrary to the statute. Finstad tried to regain possession of the eat by force, and Mrs, Lewis had him ar- rested for assault and battery, A justice imposed a fine upon Finstad, but the defendant refused to pay it, and appealed the case to the circuit court. Thus far $30 in costs have been charged up to the county in set- tling the ownership of the cat, and this promises to mount up into the thousands before the case is termin- ated. ALMOST OUT OF DEBT. | <r | Million on Its Obligation. Another Year Will Wipe Away All But the School Certificates. Jefferson City, Me., Feb, 27.—The | Board of fund commissioners, con-| sisting of Governor Dockery, Attor- | ney General Crow, Anditor Allen and | Treasurer Williams, met late yester- | day afternoon and ordered the pay-| ment of $500,000 of the outstand- ing bonds of the state. By this action of the board of fund commissioners, the bonded debt, ex- | clusive of the school certiticates, is | reduced to $787,000, every dollar of whieh will be paid during the ensuing year, notwithstanding $1,000,000 has been appropriated from thistand for the world’s fair.

Lock Better Than Brains. Ex-Governor Upham, of Wisconsin, told a good story on himself the oth- er day: : “Twas once interested in two lum- ber deals,” he said. “I had effered a valuable piece of property at $60,- 000, and at the same time I was try- ing te buy a tract of pine trees. While the deals were pending}! ran across a gypsy fortune teller in the woeds, and I asked her to tell my fortune. “You will be very lucky in your deals,’ she said. “ “That's good,’ I remarked. “ ‘Yes,’ continued the fortune tell- er, ‘your luck will beat your brains.” Governor Upham says that the woman spoke the truth: Atew-days later the syndicate which held the option ef $60,000 upon the property he had offered at that price decided not to accept it, and it was not long before he was able to sell the land for almost double the amount.—Wash- ington Post.

The state was loser by the transaction, which extinguish- edits liens at the exact amount of $25,604.44, This enormous loss to the people and this great burden they have been carrying for more than thirty years was the direct result, in part, at least, of the corrupt use of money to debauch the state legislature, as is clearly shown by the records of the United States court at St. Louis. These records show that $193,648.60 was expended by the Missouri Pacific Railway alone to secure the release of the state's lien upon thatrailroad. The democratic party came into power on the first day of January,’73s. At that time the bonded indebted- ness was $21,768,000. Thisdebt was increased $145,410 by the issue of a bank stock refunding bond and a bond to meet the liabilities of the penitentiary. The total bonded lia- bility, thertfore, at the beginning of the period of democratic control was $21,918,410." During the period of democratic ascendency, $40,756,907.94, have been expended, exclusive of refunding bonds, in the reduction of the bond- ed debt and the payment of interest. Luke Sanders Hanged. Marion, Ala., March 6.—Luke San- ders was hanged here to-day for the murder of Road Overseer Mullins last April. The execution took place in the jail corridor and was witnessed only by the guards, forty in number. On April 18, 1899, Luke Sanders and his brother were members of a gang of negroes working under the superintendency of Mullins, the mur- dered man. Some words arose be- tween Mullins and one ef theSanders and the next day the brothers came to their work armed. Another diffi- culty arose between Tom Sanders and Mallins and a fight ensued, in which shots were exchanged, the negro being wounded. The other 4 Sanders, Luke, then drew his revolver and emptied its contents into the body of Mullins. After the murder there were vague rumors of lynch- ings, but none took place. Sanders fled to Arkansas. He was captured, however, and brought to Perry eoun- ty, where he was hanged to-day. Miss Roosevelt Going to Cuba.
