JUDGE GARTER PROB
ABLE CANDIDATE
Little Rock, Jah. lfi.—The poli
tical pot for the primaries of 1912
has already begun to boil, the
simmering stage being already
past, and candidates for all of
fices from United States senator
to constable will be coming out
of the woods into the open dur
ing the next few months. The
first announcement along this
line is that of Judge J. M Carter,
of Texarkana, who will be a can
didate for congress from the
Fourth district to succeed Ben
Cravens. Judge Carter has pre
sided over the circuit court of his
district for a number of years
and is one of the best known
lawyers of that section. He is
considered a big man and will cut
a figure in ithe race. Mr. Cra
vens, the present congressman
from this district, is now serving
his third term and has stated to
Little Rock friends that he will
be a candidate again at the end
of his present term. There are
already two avowed candidates
for governor, H. L. Norwood and
Joe T. Robinson, and George A.
Cole, president of the Arkansas
Farmers Union and the State
Fair Association, has been fre
quently mentioned as a third
candidate, but he has often de
nied that he has any such aspira
tions. In spite of these denials,
a close friend of Cole has stated
that he will be a candidate when
the time comes and will give a
good account of himself.
DEATH OF IDA WHITTEN,
The town was shocked Thurs
day morning when the news was
spread that Miss Ida Whitten was
dead. Miss Ida had gone Jto
prayer meeting and on her re
turn home had gone to her room
preparatory to retire for the night
; when her mother heard her
struggle and went to see what
was the matter. She found her
daughter in a dying condition.
Dr. Bell was at the Whitten home
and wa3 called at once but Miss
Ida was dead before he could get
j to her room. Heart failure was
the’cause of her death. The
funeral was had from the Metho
dist church yesterday at do’clock
P.M. Burial in DeAnn Cemetery.
Funeral services conducted by
Rev. A. M. Shaw.
I
H. H- WOODUL DEAD
The many friends of Henery
H. Woodul of Albany township
will read with regret this an
nouncment of his death. Mr.
Woodul died at his home near
Sutton last Saturday night with
pneumonia. His remains were
intered Sunday at Harmony.
He was one of the most highly
esteemed citizens of that com
munity and will be greatly
missed. He was a father of Mr.
Will Woodul who has been with
the Prescott Mercantile Co. of
this city for several years.
To the many sorrowing rela
tives and frieuds the Picayune
offers condolence.
Mrs. J. M. Neal died at her'
home west of town last Thursday i
night and was hurried Friday.
Mrs. Neal had been in poor
health for a number of years but
was thought to be better of late.
She leaves a husband and sev-1
eral children to mourn her death. !
To her disconsolate husband we'
extend our heartfelt sympathy.

SOCIETY
It would be hard to describe
the magnificent entertainment
given by Mrs. Horace Bemis and
Miss Annie Willingham, in the
ellegant home of the former, on
Tuesday afternoon, in honor of
Miss Hinton, the bride-to-be,
Mrs. Baughman, the recent bride,
and Mrs. Barlow, of Hope,
youngest sister of Mrs. Bemis.
Every appointment of the home
seemed to be a fit setting for the i
immense throng present, who*
came in their best attire and in
their happiest spirits, to bid the
happy trio god-speed in their
lives of connubial bliss. Tables
galore were in evidence at which
players vied with each other as
to who should make the highest
score in such games as “bunco”
and “hearts.” After quite a
merry time spent in this way the {
signal was given that all remain
seated at their respective tables, j
where a bountiful repast was
served of roast turkey and all its
delicious accessories. After this,
all assembled in the dining room,
in the center of which stood a
large round table with snowy
linen, a handsome center piece
ol cluny lace anu on wmcn restea
an immense bridal cake, most
beautifully decorated with crim
son letters, Hinton and Dorris
In the center of this open, heart
shaped cake was a bed of green,
from whicn emerged a cut glass
vase of pink carnations and
Maiden-hair ferns, and queer lit
tle messages from Cupid, all
“done up” in silver foil. These
were read to the prospective
bride by tne hostess, who blush
ingly exclaimed, “How lovely.”
Then followed the cutting of the
cake, and happy was the for
tunate one who chanced to obtain
the crimson heart, tucked away
in its feathery lightness, proph
etic of the next-to-be bride.
The bride was presented with
a boquet of carnations and ferns
by the hostesses, while Mrs.
Kurriss won the first favor for
excellency in playing.
Mrs. Bemis and Miss Willing
ham were assisted by those
two charming women. Mesdames
Beidelman and Will Bemis. Miss
Hannah Bemis was also in evi
dence with her fine grace of ser
vice, while Miss Elizabeth Beidel
man presided at the “Victor, “
which gave oat its sweet melody
of song, lending a romantic spell
over all hearts.

of the most scientific farmers in
the country and has made impro

profitable to him. He will leave

The Republican majority of 30
ih the Senate a year ago has
dwindled down to very small pro
portions; so much so that, with
the Democratic legislature of
Main, Colorado, Montana and
Nebraska returning Democrats
to fill the vacancies that will be
caused by the expiration of the
terms of Republican senators
from those states which will ex
pire within the next two years, it
will require but one more Demo
crat, from any state, to n akejthe
senate D mocratic in 1913. The
outlook is brightly Democratic.
It all depends upon how the party
fulfills its pledge to the people
whether or not there will be a
goverment Democratic in all its
branches after 1912.
