Indianapolis, Nov. 23.—Demo-crats from all over the state are numerous in town today to attend the Democratic state conference, looking for a new state committee and to arrange dates for holding conventions at which a committee will be chosen. Senator Voorhees will arrive in the city during the forenoon. Senator Turpie and Mexican Minister Gray are already here. Other, prominent Democrats are expected, and Congressmen By num, Cooper and Brown.

Shreveport, La., Nov. 23.— Link Waggoner, the notorious Louisiana desperado, has been cap-tured in the w ildes of Nacogdoches c >unty, Texas. He has been want ed for shooting a man named HjlJ land in Webster parish, this state, a year ago. Sheriff Regan, with a posse of six men surrounded the house where Waggoner was stop-ping and got the drop on the out-aw and made him surrender. The prisoner is on his way to Webster parish. Waggoner’s name is linked with many crimes in this state, Texas and Arkansas. About two years ago he and his brother were arrested in Ozark Moun-tains, Arkansas, for a mar-der in Claiborne parish. His brother was c nvio ed and sent to the penitentiary wh-.re he was after-wards accidentally ki'led. Pending the trial a mob undertook to lynch Link, hut he got a revolver and kept the crowd ff, and saved his life after wounding several of the mob. Link was acq fitted of this crime in an adjoining parish Beal Elstate FOR SALE. Houses and Lots in the City, Farms and Grass Lands in this County. 180 acres on Bosque Boulevard. ..........

To Hear Elder Wilson on Purification of the Heart. Last night another crowded house greeted Evangelist Wilson at the Christian church to hear his sermon on “Purification of the Heart.” This was the best sermon that the evangelist has yet delivered and his familiarity with scripture is marvelous. The vast crowd was captured by the simplicity and force of the speaker’s argument,and a subject heretofore somewhat be-clouded was made clear and plain. Tonight’s sermon will be “God’s Power to Save.” Come early to get a seat. The meeting waxes warmer in interest, and the music holds its own. Additional chairs will be provided for the crowds. Cotton Market. By Associated Press to The News. New Orleans, Nov. 23 —Glenny & Co. say: Liverpool spot ootton moderately active and firm at 1-16 advanoe; sales 12,000 bales; low middling 4§d; middling 4-^-d; good middling 4fl. Futures opened film, with demand fair at 2-64@3-64 advance, and closed firm at 3.64@ 64 net advance. New York opened 9 points high-er, advanced seven additional, reacted, declined, and at 1 p. m, was 13 points higher than yesier-day. New Orleans opened 9 points higher, advanced two to three points, declined, and at 12:10 was about at the opening prices. The better tone of Liverpool futures and the increased spot sales there at the advance caused consid erable buying in American markets. Another feature is the better prices of dry goods and the belief that the receipts will soon fail off. The ad-vance, however, has been very rapid, and we might have a sharp reaction should the receipts contin-ue heavy. Spots at New Orleans are firm with good demand, buyers offering 1-16 and sellers asking £ advance. SLEEPER, CLIFTON & DUKE. SATISFACTORY RATES. Tlie Cotton Belt Doing What it Can to Help Waco Out.
