after this accident the Constitution be-

Bold o.yI,sh. ne,s.vp.

Bradford Goodman, young
man about thirty years of age. was
arrested last Tuesday afternoon,
after an exciting chase, charged
with holding up w. T. Briscoe,
and relieving him OF a sum OF
money. Both men are strangers
in the city. Goodman worked in
Dyes livery stable at Rocky Ford
six days last week, and Briscoe
had secured job at the depot in
this city, but had not gone to work
yet.
During the afternoon the two
men met for the first time, and
with the assistance OF several
"small bottles" were becoming
quite we'll acquainted. Goodman
was broke, but he managed to
keep his end up by playing pool
and "pitch, and sticking his new
found friend. Finally they got
sporty and commenced to play for
dollar a game. Briscoe got stuck
again, but refused to yield up the
coin. Then the trouble commenc-
ed. Goodman left the saloon first
and Briscoe followed, running up
against a swift poke which landed
on h eye, and knocked him down.
Goodman then proceeded to
"frisk" Briscoe, relieving him Of a
pocketbook containing two dol
lar bill and some silver. Goodman
made his escape and in the alley
back Of Dougberty's ice house
threw the pocketbook away.
Sheriff Barr and Marshal Zicke-
foose were notified, and Goodman
was pointed out to them just as he
was leaving the Mint saloon.
When Goodman saw the officers
he started to run, and as . COM
mand to halt failed to have the
desired effect, Sheriff. Barr took
several shots at him. He finally
stopped and was locked up in the
county jail.
Goodman's preliminary exami-
nation took place Wednesday
morning before Justice Bourne,
resulting in his being bound over

Free Advsrs,s,ng.

The following taken from the
Longmont Times, SO aptly de-
scribes the horror of legitimate
advertising, which some physi-
clans have, that we reprint it for
general information
II seems that some or all OF the
Longmont doctors are members OF
state association. This associa-
ton has rule forbidding physi-
clans from advertising. II is a
clever scheme to keep down young
practitioners and bolster up old
practitioners. Many Of the young
members object to these restric-
tions, yet allow themselves to be
cuffed around by the gray haired
wiseacres. The only pretense
there is, or can be, for such re-
ssriction is, first, that patent men
advertise. The answer to this il
that regular practitioners prescribe
medicines prepared and sold under
a patent. The other reason is
that il all doctors would quit adj
vertising, large bill Of expense
would be saved. The answer to
this IS that they will have to ad-
sertisc in some way or retire from
practice. 1t is certainly as digni-
fed to print clean advertisement

HARRY L. PONDER.

In this issue of the INDEPENDENT appears the announcement of Hon. Harry L. Ponder, of Walnut Ridge, as candidate for the Democratic nomination for the district attorney ship.
 In that Lawrence county has had but one judicial office and that over twenty years ago, MT. Ponder feels that his individual claims are streng- thened by this fact. He is a native born of that county being from one of the best families in Arkansas. Since receiving an education at Bates vile, he has been engaged for nine years in the practice of law in his home town, where he is recognized as the leading practitioner at the bar.
 Though young man, he has been recognized as a sagacious, honorable and conservative politician, who in two successive terms in the legisla- ture made most clean and com mendable record, defending and championing the interests of his con- stituents. with ability and credit to himself. As a mark of the esteem in which he was held, his return to the office of representative was made without opposition.
 Trat he is trusted by his party, his std lding in it's councils is positive ? oo'. During the last campaign, he was an active and working member of both the Democratic State Central Committee and on the Executive Committee, which practically had in charge the campaign.
 MT. Ponder is in every way quail fled for the duties of the office he asks, in fact to discharge the require ments of the office with the highest order of ability as broad knowledge of law and experience in the courts, would assure such an administration of the attorneyship.

HOME WEDDING.
MT. Charles w. True and Miss Mattie L. Burgess United in Marriage By Rev. L. H. Richardson.-Bri- dal Couple After Break
 fast Leave for Canton,
 Missouri.

MT. Charles w. True and Miss Hattie L. Burgess were quietly married at the home of the bride Tuesday morning at ten o'clock. The ceremony, while simple, was very short and impressive being performed by Rev. L. H. Rich ardson of the Presbyterian church.
 No one outside of the immediate family was present, the whole affair being characterized by a simplicity which did not mar but rather enhanc- ed the beauty and import of the rite. The bride was radiant in an elegant suit of brown broad cloth, very be- coming to her style of beauty of the blonde type. The groom was dressed i'll conventional black, the two mak- ing a very striking and handsome couple as they plighted their troth at the altar.
 After the ceremony, a wedding breakfast was rendered the party by the brides mother, MT. and Mrs. IT re leaving on the north bound train, which was several hours late, for Ga l. ton, Missouri, where they will make a two weeks visit to the relatives of the groom. Upon their return to New port, they will make their home with MT. and Mrs. Burgess.
 The bride is the only daughter of one of Newport's best families and was born and raised here, though ed ucated at Belmont College, Nashville, Tennessee. Gifted not only in &C., quired accomplishments, and beauty of features and form, the bride has a very happy disposition and personali- ty, which has made her many friends.
 The groom has for two years been resident of this city, and has made friends both in a business and social way, who offer him congratulations at this happy hour.
 The Independent wishes them the best there is in life and profusion of this good fortune. May their sorrows be both small and few, and their union an example of the sunshine and hap piness, mutual love may make in the home.
