Conway, Oct. An inquest was held here yesterday in the case of Wesley Lawrence, the the child of Mrs. Lawrence which was. killed at the time Mrs. Law renee was assaulted and severely injured by a negro here about three weeks ago.
 The coroner's jury found that the child came to his death from wounds inflicted by some blunt instrument in the hands of par ties unknown to the jury.
 A report was sent out from here to the effect that the sec ond child of Mrs. Lawrence, which was injured at the same time, had died and the inquest was held over it's remains. This report was unfounded, as the other child has recovered.

Millinery Openings.

The millinery openings of Miss Eva Graham and Mrs. Etta Mer- Till were largely attended Wed- nesday by the ladies of Newport, who are always attracted by such pretty display of fine millinery as was on exhibition at these two places.
 The display at each of these millinery parlors was tastefully arranged, and the addition of cut flowers and trailing vines lent beauty and fragrance to the occasion.
 The $1OO hat on exhibition at Miss Eva Graham's was a good drawing card, and especially did it attract the men, who could not be induced to believe so much could be expended on one hat.
 Altogether the day was a profitable as well as pleasant oc- casiOn.

Arkansas On Trial.

In the present gubernatoria contest in Arkansas the Mem phis News-Scimitar says Arkan. sas is on trial, which is true, and the opinion expressed by the News-Scimitar is the one held by the people everywhere out side of the state.
 Gov. Davis is known in every state in the Union as a dema- gogue of the most pronounced type. He is not regarded as sincere man, and we of the state of Arkansas know that he is not. He utilizes everything upon which he can lay his hands to further his political ambitions. He has mixed politics into every thing at all under his control. He makes his campaigns nota- ble for abuse. He is not satis- fled with abuse for his direct opponents for office, but sets himself up as a dictator to name the nominees for other offices, and abuses those he desires de- feated. It is true that Arkansas is on trial, the News-Scimitar very aptly stating it as follows:
 '"The state of Arkansas is on trial before the country in her present election contest. What will the verdict be? That de- pends on the people themselves. Gov. Davis is seeking the office of United States senator, one~of the highest and most distin- guished positions in the nation. Senator Berry wants to succeed himself. Davis campaign is one of abuse, vituperation and scan- dal. Senator Berry preserves the even and dignified tenor of his way. The people of Arkan- sas must choose between the two, and the result of their choise must determine their status in their own eyes and in the eyes of the country. It is
 up to- the people and they must decide. "-Pine Bluff Graphic.

REFUSES TO QUIT.
Van Haltren Continues to Play Good
Ball in California.

George Van Haltren seems to have taken
California. after his long experiences in
the east" said Pitcher Overall the Gin
connatis' big twirler from the Pacifit coast.
Van Haltern has been the idol of the
young players of California for years, for
the reason that he was the only man from
within the recollection of the fans Of the
past ten or fifteen years
so when New York turned him down
al the end of the season of 1903 it was
thought that the old man-for he was
regarded-Was all in However, when
he began to play with Seattle and his
nostrils once more shifted the ozone of
his native cline. he seemed imbued with
a fresh spirit, and he started in to cavort
about like colt.
Coast League learned that he was afraid
of injury to the leg. which had been
broken during the summer of 1903. and
would pull away from the plate on a ball
that came close to him. Consequently his
hitting fell. Basemen also learned that
he would slide no more for the same rea-
son, and so he was not so dangerous q man
on the bases formerly.
But when it to covering ground
in the field or on the bases, ne was as
fast as ever. and that wonderful throw
ing whip still was able to do good duty.
Next season Van Haltren will play in
his native town of Oakland, and there he
expects TO make such a. showing as will
cause his fellow citizens to feel pride i'm
the best man that California ever sent

cisive fashion. On the occasion of the las'
meeting Panic nosed Leonard Joe Hayman
out He was then in receipt of weight and
won more through overconfidence on the
part of Jockey Martin, who was on Leon
ard Joe Hayman, than because OF his own
speed. The fact that he was close enough
to take advantage of Martins error. now
ever, with far less racing experience than
the other horse, made him out good colt
and despite the fact that there was a
switch in favor of Leonard Joe Hayman
Panic was well supported.
Most Of the big money, however, was on
the Hayman colt, and he was backed from
to to to 2. Hayman proved himself a
colt of top class by the ease with which he
won. He had to extend himself for but one
furlong, that from the far turn to the
stretch turn. During the sprint Veribest
was at him. but he shook him off easily.
