BROWN ON THE RACK.
He Took Vigorous Exception to Mr..
Tenney's Soul Probing
Questions,

The morning session yesterday was for
mally opened with prayer by Rev. w. G.
Pond. In the course OF the prayer Mr..
Pond said:
Things puzzle US, and puzzling disturbs US.
and our hearts are burdened, and there is
no one upon whom we can cast that burden
but thyself, and thou hast invited us to do go,
and we do so in thy name.
Those who know Mr.. Pond to be a warm
friend of DR.. Brown during the whole
of these proceedings, and an enthusiastic
defender of the doctor before he (Ponu)
was selected as a member of the council,
elbowed one another and exchanged sun
dry winks when Rev. Mr.. Pond admitted
to the Almighty in his prayer that the
council was not altogether convinced of
the plausibility of the remarkably we'll
fitting stories OF DR.. Brown and Miss
Overman.
The questions put by DR.. Tenney, who
had been chosen by the council to conduct
the cross examination. afforded further
evidence that the council had favored their
digestion of Miss Owe rman's story and
that of the doctor with several handfuls of
salt. Those questions were pointed and
direct, and for the first tine during the
trial they evidenced the keen purpose Of d
skilled attorney attempting to tear away
the cloak of falsehood from the bare truth.
DR.. Tenney is one OF the most courteous
of men and it was, no doubt, this inherent
quality which enabled him TO bear gently
with the rude charge made more than once
by DR.. Brown in his answers that Dr. Ten
ney was asking those disquieting questions
because he, Tenney, believed the doctor to
be guilty OF the charges against him.
But DIR. Tenney appeared to have his
case well in hand, and was not bluffed or
bullied cut of the line OF action prescribed
10 him by his duty as a conscientious
cross-examiner, and although, being of a
refined and sensitive disposition, he must
have taken to heart the ungracious re-
marks of DR.. Brown regarding the motives
for the questions, Dr.. Tenney did not
once show the least sign of temper or i'll
will. This was illustrated when at the
conclusion OF the morning proceedings
DR.. Tenney fastened TO assure DIR. Brow n
that his questions had been prompted
solely by a sense of duty, ana that the
harder and the more searching the ques-
tons were the more complete would be
DR.. Browns vindication should he pass
through the ordeal unscathed
DR.. Brown grasped DR.. Tenney's hand
after this explanation and remarked, go
ahead. beloved; go ahead, beloved"
DR.. Brown appeared yesterday morning
with his throat bandaged. His voice had

THE STREET CIR DEAL.

4 1T E8 = [ 4A AA44 I tf4AAs Af f@sAA-t
 Itis the earnest wish of the peo- ple Of Pine Bluff that the new par- chaser $ of the Pine Bluff street ear line will convertit into an electric system. This will DO doubt be the policy of the new purchasers, for the situation has practically re solved itself into q condition where the owners of the street railway are either forced to convert it into an electric line or abandon their char ter. h fact the city has already entered suit against the street car company to show cause why its charter should not be forfeited, and if this suit was pushed to Q eonelu- sion, there is hardly a doubt but that it would 20 against the com pany. The new purchasers, who are understood to represent the bond holders. will find that it is utterly impracticable to restore the railway to a profitable basis without chang ing it to an electric line. The pub lie in this progressive day want quick and rapid transit. and they will be satisfied with nothing less. The horse ear is a thing of the past and must be abandoned in all pro. gressive cities and countries. Eiec- tricity is the great motor power of the age, and any street car system to be profitable in the United States must be strictly up to date.
 If the new owners of the street railway would put in an electric plant and furnish day current to private individuals for the purpose of propelling machinery, electric fans, etc, they would find this a profitable source ofrevenue. There are a number Of establishments in this city at present using steam power that would gladly change te electric power # they were given the opportunity to do so.
 This source of revenue. added tc the increased patronage that would naturally come to an electric rail way, in consequence of quick an6 rapid transit, would, we believe make an electric street railway Z profitable investment in this city.
 If the new deal results in an cleo trie street car system, our people will hail the change with delight.
