CONSPIRED TO
 BRIBE A JURY
Mayor Faucette of Argenta and Fraai Cumnock. Former Mayor of Barring Cross. Found Guilty Court to
 Name Punishment.

Little Rock, Oct. 20.-W. C. Faucette, mayor of Argenta, and Frank Cumnock, former mayor oi Barring Cross, were found guilty yesterday of attempting a con. spiracy to bribe'jurors in the trial of State Senator A. T. Gross, ir Perry county, after one of the most sensational trials in the his. ory of Pulaski county.
 The case, which occupied the entire week, went to the jury al 3:4s o'clock yesterday afternoon and 7:2O o'clock one of the jurors announced that they had agreed soon a verdict. IL was subse- oueutly learned that the defend ants were found guilty before the fury went to supper at 5:50 o'clock, but the extent of the punishment caused a delay in reaching the decision.
 Mayor Faucette, Colonel Mur- phy and Prosecuting Attorney Rhoton were absent when the verdict was read. Mr. Rhoton was too i'll to be present.
 Senator Clarke requested that the defendants be allowed their liberty with $500 bonds each, un- der which they were held, and Circuit Judge Robert J. Leo granted the request. It is expect ed a motion for a new trial will be made on Monday.
 Faucette and Cumuock were in- dicted in Perry county for con spring through Assistant Prose cutting Attorney James M. Shackleford to bribe the jurors in the trial.of State Senator A. T. ioss, who was charged with a similar offense in connection with pure food bill in 1905. Shackle- ford trapped them under instruc- tiops from the prosecuting attor- ney.
 The defendants, on change of venue, went to trial, beginning last Monday. It became noted before many days had elapsed for the bitter political feeling it uu- earthed. The attempt to impeach the testimony of James M. and John D. Shackleford, his brother, were met by rebuttal proceedings on the part of the prosecution, a host of witnesses swearing to the veracity and reputation of the two attorneys.
 During the closing arguments sensation was sprung by the verbal and physical attack and assault made by Colonel George NJ. Murphy upon Prosecuting At torney Rhoton. It was believed that Mir. Rhoton would reply in kind yesterday, and many of the spectators who jammed the court. room were disappointed because he adopted ameliatory instead oi retaliatory measures in answering the attack upon his character by his adversary.
 Conservative men, however, saw the wisdom of Rhoton's s tourse, and last night the verdict vas taken as complete victory tor the fight that the prosecuting has been wagiug.
 Colonel Murphy was no present. during Mr. Rhoton'' argument, nor did he reappear ir the courtroom after he finished hls address during the. morning session.
 The case will go down in th' annals of the county as memor able because, although it wal simply misdemeanor, 1t took sil uays to try, and because it in voiyed such bitter and viciou politics.
 The verdict was a general sur p1'se to those who followed tn proceedings from day to day many believing the jury woul' hang.

Mr.. c. H. Brown is keeping right

received:

Injunction Suit Against the Internal

Miss Jefferson Bell.)

Tallahassee May 3.-The feature
of the May day celebration in old
Tallahassee to take place this after
noon will be a parade of the goat
teams so numerous in this pace The
good old English custom of celebrat-
ing May day has been kept up in
Tallahassee, although for some rea-
son three days of grace this year have
been added to the date. For many
years Lewis Park has been the scene
of this fete, and under the splendid
old oak, known as the May tree sue
ceSSive queens of the May have been
crowned, generation after generation
lending some fair maid to reign for
a day. Through the corridors of
memory they come trOoping, these
play-QueenS, crowned with roses,
dipled and rosy with girlhood's grace.
Many of them are gone-some are
Withered, and old-some are now
budding into womanhood. Sad it is
that:
Beauty all must fade, even sceptres
rust
Roses and queen must crumble into
dust
Yet through the shadows, once again
Their ghosts steal forth DER memory
to reign"
Governor and Mrs. Broward will
formally open the doors of Florida s
executive mansion Wednesday with a
large reception to the legislature and
TO the people of Tallahassee. The
mansion is not quite completed, but
the governor and Mrs. BrOward had
long planned to entertain the legisla-
ture in the new home. The first floor
is completed and presents a very
handsome appearance. 1t took eighty
one years to convince Florida'S legis-
latorS that the governor of Florida
should have an official home, and the
legislature of 1905 deserves the
thanks of the state for its action in
providing such home.

ROOSEVELT TO RUN.
Ex-senator Says That Republicans
Fear Election of Bryan.

London, May 5. Ex-senator
Stephen w. Dorsey, formerly of Ark
ansas, now of California, who has
just arrived from New York, thinks
that the candidates in the next presi-
Dental campaign will be Mr.. Roose-
welt and Mr.. Bryan.
''Mr. Roosevelt" said Mr.. Dorsey,
lis a candidate for reelection, and
has been a candidate for some time.
The impression is growing that he is
liar situation that has developed in
the United States in the last few
years. / am convinced that he is the
only man with whom the Republicans
can beat Mr.. Bryan.
Though l am a strong Republican,
/ believe that Mr.. Bryan would make
good president, Notwithstanding he
has queer ideas occasionally. He is
the strongest man the Democrats
have, and, unlike Roosevelt, he does
not go around with the blk stock.
Just before leaving home | had
interviews with several Republican
leaders. Their chief fear is of Mr.
Bryan's growing strength. 1 don't
thing Governor Hughes would make
any show against him. 1 don't think
Mr.. Bryan would be able to raise
larger campaign fund than Mr..
