How They Changed Their Name on
Going North.
In Los Angeles Dean Was Known as William
Farrow, His Real Name--How His Wife
Figures in the Case.
WERE IN BUSINESS HERE

Mrs. W.. J. Dean, the woman counter
feiter, who with her husband is in the
Oakland Jail awaiting trial in the United
States court, is known in Los Angeles.
Her husband was w. J. Farrow.
1t is not known where they came from
to this city though it is believed Mrs.
Dean, or Farrow, came from Greenville,
Bond county, Ill. They came to Los
Angeles nearly II year ago and with a
man named Roberts, known in Oakland
as p. A. Lee, established the Electric
Engraving Company and had some con-
nection with the Pacific Engraving Com
pany which at that time was in room 10,
Temple Block, at the junction of Spring
and Main streets.
Shortly aiterward a young man named
Metcalf went into partnership with Far
row. They did land office bussines Tor
a time, but Farow's work became some
what shady so Metcalf bought him out
and went IN with Fred J. Behre, the well
known engrayer at III ID South Broad
way.
In November of last year Dean, alias
Farrow, took his handsome wife and
left the city. Shortly afterwards Roberts
or Lee followed. Then it was that Met
calf became suspicious. The young en-
graver minated yesterday that Dean
started in the counterfetng business
here. After leaving Los Angeles, the
trio established complete plant for
making greenbacks.

Wilde asks for a watercress sandwich he
doesn't want loaf of bread with
meadow in the middle of it, Yet the
same man who could indulge in this pub
lie pleasantly was clever enough to win
the same poetical prize at Oxford that
was given to Matthew Arnold and Swim
burne, and now there is to appear at last
the essay in imaginative scholarship
which he began in The Portrait of Mr. W.
II. That production was printed i'll Black
woods some years ago, and was seen
to be one of the most entertaining at
tempts which had ever been made to
solve the mystery of Shakespeare's SON
nets. 1t was to have been elaborated into
volume, but nothing has been heard of
it until now since the first flare of the adj
vertising cornet on which the rotund and
aesthetic one so deity plays. A recent

the promise of the first sketch it will
prove by all odds the pleasantest thing to

ARKANSAS TROOPS Are READY
And the Governor Will Use
Them, if Necessary.
IT the Fight is Not Called Or Time Will
be Set for Moving the Militia to hot
springs-The Matter OF Paying tho
Expenses Much Debsted-The Gov
ernor's Authority Questioned.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Oct. 16.-Colonel
Hollenberg, commanding the First Regi,
ment, Arkansas Guards, issued orders
last night to every company in his regi.
mont to hold themselves in readiness
subject to q call to move to Hot Springs.
In an interview day Colonel Hol-
lenberg said: There is no secret
about the matter. Orders have been
sent to every company Of white militia
in the State, notifying them TO move
to Hot Springs on short notice. If the
prize fight is not called off, definite
time for moving the militia to Hot
Springs will be dec .ded upon, and that
time will be soon, as we do not propose
to have any tricks played on us.
"If the militia goes to Hot Springs
the expenses will be paid. cannots say
who will be responsible, but will have
the governor to show me on this point.
If the managers of the fight continue in
their determination to have the fight
come off the militia will be called out
and stop the fight.
Whether the governor is right or
wrong, II he sends the militia TO Hot
Springs the fight will be stopped Just
now the governor proposes TO pay the
expenses of the militia in the event
they are called out to Hot Springs ia
not known. IfGarland county calls for
the militia, of course that county will
be held responsible financially. Ii the
governor calls out the so diers on his
own hook it Is not known who will pay
the milltia's expenses, ss the State as
no money appropriated for this"
Speaking of this matter Judge Nor
ris Cohn, one of the most prominent
members of the Little Rock bar, said:
The general impression among the
bar, as l have always understood 1t, is
that the governor is only authorized to
call out the militia to suppress a mis-
demeaIor or other riotous proceeding
when called upon by the local authori-
tics Of the community III which such
disturbances occur. Regular and proper
administration OF government contem-
plates that the county administrators
shall be invested with the care of Gf-,
fairs, including the preservation of
peace and order. aud that this shall not
be interfered with by any outside power
unless called upon by the county au-
thorities."

Csrolins constitutional convention re-

vision under consideration declares
snAt IL shall be unlawful for any white

AN amendment was introduced this
morning excepting from the provisions
OF the law those people in the State
VINO, although they have slight inter
mixture OF negro blood, have the status
OF white people. There is much d iffer..
ence OF opinion rs to what ia best to be
done about this class, and consequently
tne committee WAS instructed TO bring
IN another provision, which, it is hoped
Will meet the approval OF everybody,
an rest OF the day was spent in dis
cussing the legislative committee's re.
Pors, the principal action being the re-.
lection CT provision preventing leqis-
lators and judges from being candidates
Tor any other office and preventing the
legislature from passing special laws as
10 corporate towns, or IS to county gov
ernmentS, making such laws general in
their application.
Senator Tillrnan introduced = reeolu-
ton providing for the holding of another
constitution convention in 1916 and
