AGAIN THE STANDARD
MUST SHOW MISSOURI
CUSTER PROCEEDINGS AGAINST "1rorHER
Special Correspondence If The Pr,

Special Correspondence VI The Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo, Dec Her
bert S. Hadley, attorney general of
Missouri, is rounding up his case
against the Standard Oil Co.
Hadley claims that the Standard,
Waters Pierce Oil Co., of st Louis,
and Republic Oil Co. are run by the
same people, that the former two
have divided the state into two di-
visions, each taking one, and that
both use the Republic in the guise
of an Independent company to get
such trade as neither of the others
can get otherwise owing to anti
trust sentiment.
Dispositions taken al over the
state confirm his claims and have
yielded much additional sworn evil
dence on the methods of the STAN
dard, such as getting and paying re-
bates, spying on rivals and employ
ing railroad clerks to furnish re-
ports on shipments by outsiders.
Hadley is 32 years old. He was
prosecuting attorney of Kansas
City. He succeeded Falk as attor-
ney general when the latter was
made governor, and is the first Re-
publican to hold the office in q score
of years. He became a close friend
of the governor and has continued
his fight against boodlers. He has
the reputation Of being one of the
best orators in the state.
He expects to round up his case
by taking the statements of such
magnates as Rockefeller, Rogers,
F1agler, Archbold, Barstow, Tinsley
and others in New York and sub
penas have been issued for them.
Arguments in the custer case are
slated to be held before the Mis-
souria supreme court in jefferson
City in January.

She really loved Edward, and it
was a great blow to lose him.
GAS for Edward, the incident
chilled his love. He avoided wo-
mems society and devoted himself
to his work with success. 1t was
six years after this that he met
your cousin Mary. Her good quail
ties, her care of her invalid moth
er, her warm heart and native
sense interested him deeply. Still,
his former experience had made
him distrustful. Accident had de-
cided him.
"Mary's former governess was
living in very destitute clrcum-
stances In part of the city dis
tant from her home, and one day
Mary went to see her. The car
riage not returning, Mary set out
alone and met Edward, who offered
his services. At a muddy cross
ing her slipper stuck and she had
to leave it to save herself from
falling. Edward stopped to re-
place it, and Mary timidly advanc-
ed small, shapely foot. In her
stocking was the neatest little darn
imaginable. Edward could resist
no longer, and when he told me
the story he showec me the identi-
cal stocking.

The Man and the Monkey.

A couple of Italian organ grinders
 with the inevitable monkey, appeared
 in Forrest City Monday and proceeded
 to perform" At several private
 houses they became so abusive because
 the occupants refused to reward them
 as they thought they deserved that one of them, who gave his name as John Chase, proved really obnoxious. At one place Chase was so rude and in- sulting that the marshal was sum- moned by phone. Upon reaching the scene Marshal Wilder found that his man had decamped, and was streak ing" it down the Iron Mountain road in an effort to escape. The marshal gave chase on horseback and soon over- hauled the reformed count, or mar quis, or prince, or whatever he may have been in his own country, and in- continently dumped him and his monk into the calaboose. His partner, who owned high-toned name which we can't spell, was soon keeping him company behind the bars. Tuesday morning Mayor German investigated the case and dismissed the gentleman of the aristocratic patronymic, but held Signor Chase for further probing.
 In the afternoon the mayor decided that the signor's wrath and conse- quent conduct had wounded the city's dignity about six dollars worth, and assessed that amount against him. It is fair to presume that the lesson will not be lost upon the itinerant vendor Of sweet harmonies, and that here. after he will not expreS his resent ment In such forceful language or ''cuss" quite so loud when the nickels fail to flow as freely as he may wish.

The Cui Bono Club was entertained on Friday afternoon by Miss Matte Mai Davis, assisted by Mrs. s. c. Neel. The feature of the entertainment which presented the spice of novelty, was "bell contest, in which a series of ingenious questions were answered properly by the word "bell." Other games, music and conversation filled in a charming afternoon.
 A salad course was served, followed by hot chocolate.
 The house was beautifully decorated with nasturtiums, chrysanthemums and autumn leaves. The guests were: Misses Ora Berry, Tolise Rollwage, Clara Grobmyer, Gertrude and Ida Walton, Bessie Hood, Katherine Webber, Mary Norneet, Mesdames H. A. Clark and Louis +. Rollwage.

Elder Paslay Injured.

Elder w H. Paslay, the well known Baptist minister of this city, was the victim of a painful accident while a passenger on the Iron Mountain freight train at Lexa last Monday. When the train pulled out of the sta tion, and while it was running at a speed of three or four miles an hour, Elder Paslay stepped to the rear door of the caboose to view the many im- provements being made by the rail- road company at Lexa. The engineer suddenly threw on the full force of the air, ''jamming" the brakes and bringing the train to halt with 2 jerk. MT. Paslay was thrown to the floor and Mrs. David Walls, also 3 passenger, fell across his lower extrem- ities, breaking the small bone in his rfget leg just above the ankle. At Marianna he was met by Mr. Lon Slaughter and physician, and the fracture reduced.
 Mir. W. A. Pearson went down on a south-beund train, took charge of the injured nan and brought him home, arriving about so'clock Monday night. The patient Is resting as we'll as could be expected, bearing his affliction with his customary fortitude. Thou sands of people throughout this section will sympathize with Mir. Pasiay in his misfortune.

CONCRETE WORK.
Detailed Statement of Lineal Feet of Walks Recently Laid i'm
 Forrest City.

It is very gratifying to The Times to note the good progress being made in the matter of laying concrete walks in Forrest City, and to observe the determination of the city council and the people to extend this improve ment as rapidly as possible. The work has been done in a skillful and substantial manner, and the value of property and the beauty of the city have been vastly enhanced by the in- novation. MT. James Lamar, the contractor in charge of the work, thoroughly understands his business, having enjoyed large experience, and Is doing his best on the present job
 In detail, the amount of sidewalks laid, in lineal feet, is as follows:
 Christian church, 37i feet, J. W. Williams, l763 feet, Mrs. M. E. Blanton, 66a feet, H. B. Gwyn, l67 feet,
 Mrs. T. c Davis, 50 feet,

 City of Forrest City, D street and alley crossings. J. M. Nichols, 193t feet, Mrs. K. Boyle, lsO feet, Methodist Church, 25O feet, The following walks have been laid by the Choctaw Brick & Tile Co.,, and their work has been in every way en- tirely satisfactory:

TEMPE
NEED THE MONEY.
1t Takes Cash To Keep The Work
 Going On Above the Buttes.

There was a meeting of the city from a week before. At that time there was still some business to be looked after. The greater part of the time Thursday evening was spent in the auditing of the bills in connection with the river work that is going on above town for the protection of the city, the railroads, and the Miller CTS of this paper know, this work has been progressing with every degree of satisfaction, but it costs money. There is no question about that, for when all bills had been ordered paid the other night it was figured out that by to- night something over S3,000 will have been expended and the work is still far from completed. That is is being pushed as fast as possible, though, there is no doubt, and Superintendent Holsapple said that he expected, pro- viding nothing unforeseen same up, to have the dam so far finished that by tonight all the water now running in the river bed will be turned down the channel. Just now there is not a great deal of water, but there is no telling when there will be more, and with that possibility in view, the work has been hurried to reach its present stage so that in case of high water the ac- tion of it on the uncompleted part of the channel will do more good than harm.
