I PEOPLE ARE PROSPEROUS.
Hon. W. A. Oldfield of Batesville,
prosecuting attorney of the Third ju
Idicial circuit, was in Little Rock Mon
day on business in the Pulaski circuit
court, and took occasion to secure his
commission while here, dated October
30. He will succeed Hon. S. D. Camp
bell. “Conditions are prosperous in
the northern part of the state,” said
he. “The farmers throughout the
drought belt of last year have made
fairly good crops this season, and
while they are not large they will be
sufficient to carry the people through.
Their condition is so much better
than it was last year, when we were
forced to call upon the outside world
for aid, that it, seems the days of
plenty are upon us again. The gov
ernment work on the river and the
construction of the railroad is also the
means of distributing considerable
money among the farmers.”
PRESIDENT ABANDONS TRIP.
Indianapolis, Lept. 23.—President
Roosevelt this afternoon was forced
to abandon the remainder of his trip
to the Northwest and undergo a surgi
cal operation. The accident which
befell him at Pittsfield, Mass.) when a
trolley car crashed into his carriage
is responsible for the sudden ending of
the president’s trip and his being
compelled to undergo the operation.
In that accident his knee was badly
bruised and an abcess soon formed
which gave him some trouble, not
enough at first to interfere with his
plans. The hardships of his present
trip, however, aggravated the trouble.
The president was driven from the
clubhouse to St. Vincent hospital,
where he was taken to a private op
erating room. It was about 4:15 when
the doctors began the operation. It
was performed by John Oliver, as
sisted by Dr. Henry Jameson and Dr.
Cook.
The operation was finished and the
president was removed to his room.
He did not take an anaesthetic. The
president is cheerful.

Died —Mrs. Ida Cox in St. Louis
Tuesday morning, September 23, 1902
at 5:30 a. m., aged 43 years, 5 months

afternoon at 2:45 o’clock from resi
dence of Gustave Jones corner of

Grove cemetery.
In the number of hearts, to which
this epitome of a life ended in the
flesh has brought sorrow and tears,
rests the sweetest offering and tribute
to the departed, surpassing even the
beauty and simplicity of flowers that
have been laid with tender sentiment
upon her casket. What a winner of
friendships is virtue clothed in char
ity, what a commander of respect and
love is nobility of character. In the
life of this one laid to rest till the
awakening morn, acts of kindness and
love were profusely strewn about her
pathway. They were from the heart
and taken as such by the world. For
LUiU i. UlUJUiij VtV/VW J Vt V *4 V.' <-* V".»* V j
of those dear to her by family ties and
the bond of friendship.
For the past year, the deceased bad
not enjoyed good health and for sev
eral weeks prior to her departure
from here on the second of June for
her father’s home at Maryville, she
had been sick intermittently. Not
long after reaching home, her life was
almost despaired of by a complete
physical breakdown. Then came a
brief and short-lived recuperation,
during which she was removed to St.
Louis, that specialists might lend
their skill toward her recovery.
Several days ago, a perceptible de
cline set in and the end came as stated
early Tuesday morning, the phisician
in attendance pronouncing the imme
diate causes to have been congestion
of the brain and melancholia.
The remains were brought here on
the late train Tuesday night, the
funeral services for the family and
close friends being first conducted at
the residence of the brother, Mr.
Gustave Jones, at 2:45 p. m. Wednes
day and at 3:00 o’clock at St. Paul’s
church. Rev. R. W. Rhames of
Batesville conducted the services,
the pall bearers being Messrs. Charles
Wilmans, J. S. Jones, J. S. Wilmans,
Charles Henry, S. R. Phillips and H.
A. Ridley.
The floral offerings were beautiful,
the casket being fairly hidden beneath
the wealth of white roses and other
flowers.
The burial took place at Walnut
Prnvfi comet,erv.
LIFE OF DECEASED.
Miss Ida Jones, the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. William R. Jones was born
in Jacksonport April 17th, 1859, which
was her home except for time spent
away at school until 1880. Her edu
cation was received at Jacksonport,
Maryville and Louisville.
December 1, 1880, she was married
to Mr. J. R. Cox, and until six years,
ago, they lived on his farm near Diaz,
removing to Newport that year.
Early in life, she was confirmed in
the Episcopal church, of which de
nomination she proved a staunch and
zealous member. Yet it cannot be
said of her that she was narrow in
her Christianity. The humanitarian
spirit was deeply rooted in her heart.
She loved the poor as well as rich and
her sympathy went out to those in
sickness, grief and other distress.
Nor did she ever allow good resolu
tions and noble impulses to lie dorm
ant. Her heart was both easy to
touch and quick to respond.
One brother, Mr. Gustave Jones and
two sisters Mrs. J. B. Newman and
Miss Mollie Jones of Maryville, Mis
souri, together with father, mother
and husband survive the departed
one and to them in their sorrow is ex
tended the sympathy of many friends.
"So dear to heaven is saintly chastity,
That when a soul is found sincerely so,
A thousand liveried angels lacky her.
Driving far off each thing of sin and guilt."

SUDDEN DEATH OF
FRANCIS JOHNSON.
Francis Johnson of Little Rock, in
the employ of Dodge & Johnson, at
torneys for the Iron Mountain, died
suddenly early Wednesday morning.
Such was the information conveyed
by telegram to the brother of the de
cersed, Ben Johnson, who was a pas
senger on No. 5, Wednesday morning,
returning to Little Rock from St.
Louis.
The wire stated that the end was
sudden, with no previous illness and
apparently no pain. Francis Johnson
was held in high esteem by the legal
fraternity and was well known here,
where for many years he has repre
sented the Iron Mountain in almost
every term of court.
WILL SOLICIT SUBSCRIPTIONS.
At a meeting of eight or ten busi
ness men Tuesday afternoon the mat
ter of celebrating the acquisition of a
new depot building by either banquet
or some other form of jollification
was discussed and a committee of two,
consisting of Charles Meyer and A. D.
Bailey appointed to solicit subscrip
tions for such a fund.
The high officials of the Iron Moun
tain including Warner, Harding and
Cotter will be invited to be present
and G. W. Decker has promised to
extend to them invitations in person
in the near future. If the plans do
not go amiss, the celebration, which
will probably consist of a banquet,
will be held between October first and
tenth.
CAMPBELL A CONTESTANT.
At present there are two candidates
for secretary of the new railroad
commission, which enters upon its
term in January—S. D. Campbell, of
Newport, present prosecuting attor
ney of the Third judicial circuit, and
George B. Pugh of Little Rock. Mr.
Campbell is supported by Commis
sioner J. W. Phillips and Mr. Pugh
by Commissioner Hampton. Com
missioner Hudgins of Boone county
holds the key to the situation.
