FINE WILL STAND.
Sentence Imposed Upon Policeman 81
A. Quail

A. Quail.
The fine of $50 imposed by the police trial
board upon Private H. A. Quail of the met
ropolitan police force, who was convicted
of violating a provision in the police man.
ua1 in that he stayed in a house along his
beat for twenty minutes, will stand against
the officer, according to a final recommend
alton on the case made by Commissioner
West today.
At the original trial of Private Quail the
trial board found him guilty and recon-
mended that he be fined $50. Major Syl-
vester however, while concurring in the
finding, recommended that the fine be re-
duced to $50. Private Quail asked for a
new trial, claiming to have an important
witness. At the second trial, it is shown in
the evidence Private Quail admitted that
he had perjured himself in his testimony at
the first hearing, and the trial board again
recommended that the fine of $50 should
stand
Private Quail was accused by an Inspector
of entering a printing Office at 1903 10th
street northwest, October IA, and remaining
there for twenty minutes Quail pleaded
guilty and told the trial board he went in
the Office to take a rest. At the second trial
he denied this statement. saying he had
made it simply to close the case, thinking
he would get light fine He claimed he
really went into the Office at the request of
the proprietor to watch for a thief.
Assistant Corporation Counsel A. Left
witch Sinclair chairman of the trial board,
after reviewing the testimony given at the
second hearing made the following state
ment:
while the fine suggested by the board
may have been a little too large upon the
showing then made against the accused.
it is believed that it is not too large in
view of the additional testimony given by
the accused himself, and the board accord
ingly recommends that he be fined $50.
Summary removal from the force is not too
great punishment to visit upon a police
man who deliberately takes the witness
stand and perjures himself as this private,
according to his own admission, has done in
this case.

SHOULD CONSULT WIVES.
Had Representative Adams Done 81
Things Would Have Been Different.

From the Philadelphia Press CToday).
Had Representative Robert Adams of
Philadelphia consulted the women of his
native city before his proposal in the House
of Representatives of a whipping post to
be established in the District of Columbia
for the punishment of wife heaters, and
been guided by their. opinion, the House
would have been deprived of the pleasure
and instruction resulting from his speech.
Philadelphia women do not believe in the
whipping post form of punishment.
They credit Mr.. Adams with nature I'M
usually chiyaIrouS, but believe his efforts
of his sins are misdfrected, as they consider
the whipping post brutal, Ineffective and
entirely out of fashion.
If Mr.. Adams is in earnest he can win
the gratitude of thousands of women by
following the suggestion of one prominent
social and reform leader by destroying
what she considers the cause of wife beat
ing, which is drunkenness.
Step Backward-Miss Repplier.
Miss Agnes Repplier, while having no
remedy to suggest, had no hesitancy about
expressing her opinion of Mr.. Adams idea
Il don't know when 1 was so surprised as
when l read that BILL she said. 1T is a
most decided step backward, and I believe
that even the women who are beaten would
themselves oppose the whipping post 1t
seems to me it would only send their hus-
bands back to them more brutal than be-
fore. 1t is simply a form of punishment
which carries with it no method of reform
Whipping was abolished in the army, the
navy and the schools because 1t was a dis
graceful, brutal punishment There is no
doubt that 1t was effective, but 1t was I'M
civilized, and l don't believe in such pun
ishments. even If they prove effective
Filming or falling seem the only methods Of
punishment which would apply to wife
beaters, and these act most directly on the
family, depriving them in one case of their
chief means of support and in the other Of
money much needed at home"
Disfranchise Wife Beaters.
Mrs. Rudolph Blankenbnrg has another
method for helping the wife beaten mend
his ways. 1.-THE only way I know for cor
recting them is to disfranchise them" she
said yesterday. Deprive them of their
vote, and that will prove a far greater pun
lshment than any whipping at the post
Of course this would not be applicable in
the District of Columbia, where no one
votes. If Mr. Adams idea is to help to-
ward making Washington a model city the
Introduction of whipping post would be
a most original failure In this line In our
stage of civilization it Is surely a backward
step to suggest whipping post CORPORAL
punishment has bad moral influence in a
community"

Iay Over at Batesviile.

In connection with the report that a change in freight division points on the White river line would be made in the near fu- ture, it is learned that the Iron Mountain will continue to oper- ate trains from Newport to Cushman. but that the crews will lay over at Batesville, con- tinuing the run to Cushman next morning. This, 1t is under stood, will result in considerable saving to the company, as it will allow the pulling off of an engine watchman, and other employees at Cushman. The change will probably take place Sunday, Mo- vember 19. the date upon which the new time card goes into ef- feet on the Iron Mountain.

Wreck at Diaz.

Two freight trains had a head on collision at Diaz Wednesday night, says the Batesville Guard, killing five horses and injuring a number more, disabling the engines, demolishing number of cars, and tearing the track up so badly that several hours were required in which to clear the line for traffic.. The horses killed and injured in the wreck belong ed to Contractor Ben Reynolds, who had been at work on the White River road at Bergman.
 The wreck is said to have been caused by the failure of the dis patcher to give the south bound train orders against the north bound.

SYNDICATE BUYING LAND.
Representative of Chicago Interests Has Faith in Future of Newport and
 is Buying Real Estate.

We understand a Chicago syn dicate, through their representa- tive MT. James T. Cumley, has purchased a tract of land III the southern part of Newport. e When interviewed MT. Cumley admitted that such was the case. He further stated that his con1- pany were seeking real estate investments and were contem- plating the establishment of various manufacturing plants in Arkansas and the South.
 Mir. Cumley said it was too early to discuss or to promise any special industry for New port, but mentioned the fact that owing to Newport's geo. graphical location, her unequall- ed waterway, her wonderful railroad facilities, her proximity to the timber belt, and being in the midst of the most fertile ag- ricultural lands in the world, make it city whose advantages would hardly re, overlooked by men seeking profitable invest rnent.
 Mir. Cumley further states that that his company did not come into the community begging do- nations of land and cash bonus, but they came here looked over the field and secured land that would be suitable for their pur- pose. Therefore they do not feel handicapped by conditions and restrictions usually imposed by the acceptance of such cour- tesies.
 Mir. Cumley has for many years been associated with nu- merous Chicago commercial (men of much prominence, and it was through his enthusiastic indorse- ment of this portion of Arkansas and by his faith in her undoubt- ed future that induced his com pany to look upon our communi- ty with sufficient favor to war rant them in establishing an office here.

Hurry, like cyclone, whirls you along at a rate that quickly eNhausts your energy, and leaves you a nerveless, wretched, broken-dowr phys ical wreck.
 Worry acco1nplishes the same results in another way. It drags you through the dark, gloomy tunnel of forbodings, wrecks your nerves and breaks down the constitution.
 Then don't hurry; don't worry. But you will; and your nerveless, exhausted con- dition brings headaches, neu- ralgia, heart, stomach, liver and kidney troubles. The thing to do is: Strengthen the nerves with Dr. Miles Ncrvine;

Togo reports the loss af 400 men in one

Memorial Day has more than usual
historical significance this year. 1t
marks in way the fortieth anniversary
of the grand review and the disband-
ment of the great volunteer army that
had fought the war of the Union. 1t
was OF May %, 1865, that the men who
had settled the double question of
slavery and secession began their
famous march down Pennsylvania
avenue from the Capitol to the White
House, where they passed in review
before President johnson and Gen.
Grant. At their head was Sheridan's
cavalry, escorting three corps of the
Army of the Potomac, commanded by
Meade. The next day four corps of
Sherman's army-65,OO0 men in all,
who had marched from Atlanta to the
sea-followed their brilliant COM
mander down the great avenue that
links the legislative department to the
executive. Forty years are more than
the average life of a generation, yet
thousands of men who marched then
will march to-day. When the grand
review began on May 23, 1865, the
volunteer armies of the United States
numbered a million men. By Aug. z
more than 64O,O had been mustered
out, and by Nov. Is fully 100000
soldiers had returned to the pursuits
of peace. No other nation in the his
tory of the world ever accomplished
such revolution from a military to a
civilian state. New York World.
