WOMAN DID It
MISS HELEN GOULD CAUSED
SHUTTING OFF OF POOL ROOM
TELEGRAPH SERVICE.
She and Her Two Brothers, George and
Howard Gould, Are Large Hold
ers OF Western Union Stock, and
She Convinced Them of the Wis
dom of the Action Taken.

New York, May 23.-It has just de-
veloped that the remarkable order is
sued by Colonel X. C. Clowery, presi-
dent of the Western Union Telegraph
company, by which the collection and
distribution of racing Jews is discon-
tinued, a due to the influence of
Miss Helen Gould. When the agitation
against the pool rooms and their tele-
graph service was made so strong by
District Attorney jerome. Miss Gould
took quite an interest. She and her
brothers, George and Howard, are large
holders of Western Union stock, and
their word would end the racing new
business, so far as that company was
concerned. Miss Gould held several
conferences with her brothers and was
finally able to convince them of the
wisdom of discontinuance of service to
the gamblers.
Helen Miller Gould is distinguished
for her benevolent work. She is a
daughter of the ate Jay Gould and was
born in New York. June 20, 1868. At
the beginning of the war with Spain
she gave the movement 500, 600, and
for the care of sick and convalescent
soldiers at Camp Wikoff she furnished
$50, 900.

PRUNES WHILE YOU WAIT.
Santa Clara County, Gala, to Cook and
Serve Prunes at Worlds Fair.

St. Louis Missouri, May 23.-
Prunes cooked and served in real
California style and without cost is a
feature of the California exhibit at
the Worlds fair. The practical dem
onstration in cooking and serving this
great California product is given under
the auspices of the San Jose Grange
and the Farmers club, while the
prunes are being cooked in plain view
of the crowds at the fair. Pamphlets
are distributed showing how to pre-
pare prunes in a hundred different
ways, giving the public a prune lesson
as we'll as a prune feast.
Another unique California prune
feature is a big black zeal made of
prunes. The figure of the bear stands
twelve feet high II weighs 5000
pounds. The mimic animal rears upon
its launches from a base Of clustered
quartz. in which free gold is literally
displayed, n holds itself up by rest
ing its front paws upon the limb of a
tree. At the base, near the quartz,
are the pick and shovel ant pan of a
miner. The bears teeth and claws are
set with amber-colored prunes. The
work is so artistically executed as to
closely resemble a real live bear.

cisions denying three similar applica-
lions were a part of the work of the

ing the hearing or June 8. In the
three other cases The sheriff was or

tri"t court, the son OF the defendant
and her brother, two well-known at
torneys, putting forth every effort to
stay conviction. Mrs. Johnson is 65
years old. and as her sentence was
from fifteen to twenty years, she will
probably end her life in the peniten'

Wellesley Maidens Prepared for At

Wellesley, Mass, May 23.-Some of
the Wellesley college girls are now
carrying pistols.
The authorities of the college have
of late been considerably alarmed by
repeated visits to the college grounds
of numbers of tough-looking young
men after nightfall. These unwelcomr

NATIONAL BOIL
 WEEVIL CONVENTION.
National Cotton Growers to Dis cuss the Boil Evil and Rem
 .edy to Eradicate.

Shreveport, La., Dec. 6. The national cotton convention will open here next Monday morning and by that time the executive committee hopes to have all the arrangements completed.
 The greatest interest is being manifested in the coming con- vention in al quarters, and 1t IS not thought, from the number Of inquiries for rooms that have been received by Secretary Hol- combe, that at least a,OOO dele gates will be in attendance, and it is likely that the number will exceed that figure.
 There were no new develop ments yesterday in the matter of permanent chairman. No further word has been received from Governor Vardaman of Mis- sissippi since the telegram in which he stated that he had ac- cepted the appointment of per- manent chairman of the conyen- tion.
 A 1ettar was received yeSter- day from Col. E. s. Peters, pres ident of the Cotton Planters As sociation of Texas, in which he stated that he would attend the convention. The letter was written at Calvert, which is the home of Col. Peters, who is one of the largest planters in Texas. It is understood that Col. Peters had appointed a number of dele gates to attend the convention, all of them being planters.
 Prof. J. H. Cornell of Dallas has written the committee ask ing if delegates appointed by the various farmers associations would be allowed in the conven- tion. Prompt answer was made that all such delegates would be recopnized. and Prof. Cornell was urged to make as many ap- pointments'a as he desired.
 Gov. Watson of South Carolina has appointed additional dele gates to the convention. This state will have one of the largest delegations in the meeting.

ROBERTS DISBARRED
 IN FEDERAL COURT
For Conduct Grossly Unbecom- ing' in an Attorney-Will
 Move to St. Louis.

John V. Roberts, ex-mayor of Searcy and a prominent figure in the Lightle grave robbery, upon which charge he has been con victed, as well as conspiracy against Walter Gregory, was on Tuesday afternoon disbarred in the federal court of Arkansas by Judge Jacob Trieber.
 Roberts cid not appear in his defense and District Attorney w. G. Whipple addressed the court ! to his motion for .disbarment.
 Judge Trieber, in making the order of disbarment, said that fortunately this is a proceeding to which the courts are not often required to resort. But 1t IS the duty of the court to protect all who come before it, and since the evidence introduced showed that Roberts had been guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors against the laws of the state, he could no longer be permitted to exercise the rights, powers and privileges enjoyed by the attor- neys at the bar of this court.
 An attorney, being in fact an officer of the court without bond, occupies a unique position and is required to be a man of high moral character and the strictest integrity and honor. The things of which Roberts has been con- victed, said the court, are wholly incompatible with the qualified tions for an attorney with whom the interest of clients are held as a sacred trust.
 ROBERTS GOING TO ST. LOUIS. Roberts expects to go to St. Louis next week where he will accept position with the claim department of the Iron Mountain or go on the road for a large clothing house.
 Strange as it may seem, Gen eral Murphy is to become Rob- erts' attorney in the appeal case, which comes up in Searcy in January.

IS. More time'is to be given at this convention to general discussions and less time to formal address es.

 should. National aid, plus state

ARRESTS FOR
 ASSAULT ON TRAIN
Iade By Hoboes Upon Brake men, Who Sought to Put
 Them Off Running Train.

Five men are now under arrest
 the Newport jail charged with
 eing parties to the assault 0
 rakemen Spear and Erwin on 3 5Dnth- h-bound freight Thursday Night, December 1, near Muck ll's switch. One ofthem, Chas. Brown, 9 tramp, claims to have lone to Olyphant the day of the appening-and is alleged to have bought articles there. If this be rue he may cause the Iron Moun- |ain trouble for his jail ser Nice. His arrest was made by IDeteetive Wm. Ballard near lBradford.
 Robert Harris, another of the ssuspects, is bricklayer and claims he was going to Bald Knob. Three other hoboes and 3 boy get in the car he was rid ing at Newport, and when the trouble came up he jumped from the running train, and badly scratched face confirms this part of his story. He was arrested by the marshal at Bradford.
 The boy in the car is still at large, but the three men who did the shooting were arrested Sat urday night by Sheriff Wood of White eounty4near Romance and brought to jail here Monday.
 The three men, whose names are George Pritchard, James Cargan 8 nd Charley Martin, made the brakeman slow the train down near Olyphant after the .shuoting and there took to the woods.
 Sheriff Wood and Deputy Wal 3ters took the trail next morning and finally rounded them up at Romance. Each was armed with revolver, but offered no resist ance, the sheriff surprising them onthe road.
 One of the men was shot through the arm and another's finger was injured in the combat with the brakemen. They claim that the bEakemen tried to force them to jump off train running 20 miles an hour, and that they only resisted when it became necessary.
 Under the law. trainmen can- not throw or force a man off a Hnoving train, even though he is seeking to beat his way, and this may have some effect in the cases against the prisoners now held.
