BUYS PART INTEREST
". B. Orner Buys Majority of Stock Own cd by H. B. Mckenzie in The News

Yesterday a business change of much importance in the des- tlnles of The News was arranged when Mr. W. B. Orner, secretary and treasurer of the Prather Construction Co.,, who are build ing the new hotel, bought of Mr. Il. B. Mckenzie, founder of this paper, majority of his interest in the News Printing Go. This puts the controlling interest in the hands of Mr. Aylmer Evans and MT. Orner, although Mr. Mckenzie will continue to con- trol the editorial policies of the paper. The deal takes effect Jan. l. This also means that Prescott will become the headquarters of the Prather Construction Go.
 Messrs. Orner and Evans came to Prescott about the same time a few months ago, becoming fast friends at once and both have de. veloped a feeling for Prescott that caused them to locate here permanently.

Christmas Made Happy

Little Rock, Dec. 24-special-
 The entire Christmas list of par
 doned cOnvicts were given their
 liberty yesterday, through the
 action of Governor Pindall. This
 was done in order that such pris-
 nors as lived at some distance
 from Little Rock might reach
 their homes by the holidays.
 The Governors office was the
 scene of many touching incid-
 ents through Monday. A number
 of wives of those who have been convicted of various Offenses,
 were there in person, and made strong appeals to his excellency
 One especially, attracted much attention, while she waited to get the ear of the man who had it within his power to make her Christmas extremely happy, or most wretched. Two little boys were with her, ,one nine and the other five. As the time drew on and the grateful warmth of the executive offices exerted it's influ- ence the smaller of the lads grew drowsy, and climed upon his mothers's knee, and m short time was asleep, oblivious to the fact that within few minutes the fate of his father, convicted of in the second degrees, and sentenced to 21 years in the penitentiary, would be decided. Several years of the ser tence had been served, and the wife, and lads, were there to present their case to the Governor. He had re fused the pardon on Saturday, but after hearing the story of the killing, and the pleading of the wife and children he directed that the pardon be granted. With | the pardon in her hands she made | from the Capitol building well nigh shouting with joy. To the prison she went and in the afternoon departed for the fam fly home in Crawford county.

inferred in Mt. Holly Cemetery
 Mrs. Cora Elder, of Arkadel- phia, Garland's former wife and her S-yearold son, attended the services as well as a cousin, R.C. Mcdaniel of Philadelphia.
 Mrs. Elder is quoted as saying that she did not believe Mr. Gar land committed suicide becauseof his inability to affect reconcilia- tion, but inclines to the belief that he took an overdose of CO., caine while laboring under a fit of mental alteration.
 It develops that Garland had visited his farmer wife and his son just before coming to Little Rock, ,and that no effort was made at a reconciliation at that time.
