DIR. RUFF BELIEVES COVER.
NOR'S MIND IS AFFECTED

Little Rock, May DIR.
Horace f. Ruff, of Randolph
county, created what was proba bly,
the greatest sensation of the year
this afternoon, on the floor of the
house of representatives while dis
cussing the White resolution to
send a committee to visit Gov.
Little and ascertain his condition.
He said TT is the opinion of a
prominent, reliable physician, who
so informs me, that the governor
of Arkansas is at this time suffer
ing from softening of the brain,
which will soon result in death. We
should know with absolute reli-
ability whether the reports are
true. The people are clamoring
to know the truth; they are en-
titled to it. The governor belongs
to the State Of Arkansas. y
1t has been whispered that the
mind of Governor Little is serious
ly affected, and that he may not be
able to return to Little Rock for
months and possibly never, but
not until TODAY has physician
stated this publicly.
DR.. Ruff was seen after making
the speech on the floor and asked
for statement regarding his in
formation. He said: II am not
now at liberty to disclose my
authority but | may say it is ex--
cellent. If Gov Little's mind is
seriously affected we should know
it. | am conservative and would
be the last man TO raise such q
delicate question without some
good reason. | am convinced
there is something we do not know
and this physician, who is in a
position to have good knowledge,
tells me there is no doubt that the
brain of the executive is seriously
impaired. .

The construction OF the new bridge across
the Eastern branch between 18th street
southeast and Anacostia has been proceed
ing slowly of late, only limited force of
men being engaged, owing to the unfavor-
able weather. Although two piers remain
TO be erected In the river, that portion of
the work has so far advanced as to admit
OF the early utilization Of the iron work
that is expected to be on hand when the
season becomes better adapted for proceed
ing with the work.
Now that the question of building a
southern approach to the new bridge has
been disposed of through the determination
to extend Monroe street, much interest
Centers in the situation at the junction of
Harrison. Monroe and Bridge streets, from
which point the extension of Monroe street
will be made through private property. The
owners of the land through which ii is de-
sired to extend the street are in receipt
of notices from the office of the Commits
soners as to what 1t is proposed to do,
and varying prices have been offered them
for their property, but up to this time none
of the offers made has been accepted, 1t is
stated. The cutting of Monroe street
through this land will result in the re-
moval of several places OF business, as
well the abandoning of Bridge street.
Among the owners affected by the pro-
posed plan are Mrs Maria Frederick, H. A.
Griswold, William Campbell and John j..

attract them as IL should They go off on

of an army post become 'speakeasies, and
just outside the gates of almost every post
can be found the vilest dives, where

the hour were all; but no, the excesses
in these low dives make fends of them, a
disgrace to the uniform they wear, and
menace to the communities they outrage

Two numbers were given from an ancient

whose mellow cantabile is Wen known
here, sang two interpolated solos, Lung

Rossinis "Messe Solennelle, kyrle,
Gloria" "Credo," the 20 Salutaris' and
"Agnus Der from the "Missa Solemn.
Grace Munson in the 20 salutaris proved
her right to be regarded as a Scalchi con-

in the "Qui Tolles'' duet with Miss Munson,
was most artistic and Cecil James sang the
Donnie Deus solo with admirable spirit
and color.
That Washington can organize and main

yesterdays performance proved, makes
the expectation of the third and spring
concert an event to be anticipated with new
interest.
