WRECK SUNDAY MORNING
Engine Off Track at Oil Mill Delays Traffic
 About Ten Hours.

The engine attached to freight train in charge of Conductor Pat Riley left the rails at the curve near the oil mill at 2:3o Sunday morn- ing, and traffic was delayed about ten hours before the track was cleared. The cross ties at this point are said to have been rotten, which caused the rail to turn over as the engine was rounding the curve. Had the train been going at full speed a disastrous wreck would have resulted, but as 1t was, no one was injured.
 Both of the morning passenger trains were held here until about D. m. before they could pass the wreck.

 Prof. Albert F. Riley, at one time associated with President J. G. Lille as a member of the faculty of Central College, died at his home in Fl Dorado Sunday, Jan. I3. The Fl Dorado Tribune of last week prints the following ac- count of his death.
 Because few knew of his serious illness, he only becoming sick on Friday afternoon, the announce ment made Sunday that the spirit of MT. A. F. Riley had been called that morning to the God who gave it, came as a great and grievous surprise. MT. Riley was up town Friday forenoon seemingly in good health, but that evening he took his bed with congestion Of the brain and spinal cord.

DEMPSEYS GIVEN TWO YEARS
Voluntary Manslaughter Verdict
 of Jury.
John and Tillman Dempsey Found Guilty of Killing John Earnhart After
 Long Deliberation by Jury.

After being out about twenty four hours, the jury in the case of John and Tillman Dempsey, who were charged with the killing of John Earnhart at Greenbrier on March 24, Ioo6, returned a yer dict, finding the defendants guilty of voluntary manslaughter and fixed their punishment at two years in the penitentiary, the min imum verdict for this degree of homicide.
 Every inch of ground was con- tested by the counsel on each side of the case. The defendants were represented by Sam Frauenthal, G. w. Clark and George Shaw, and the prosecution was conducted by Prosecuting Attorney F. E. Brown, Col. G. w. Bruce and w. P. Strait of Morrilton.
 There were quite number of witnesses to the difficulty in which Earnhart lost his life. The evidence introduced by the state was to the effect that on the day of the killing Smith Dempsey, father of the defendants, and Earnhart had a controversy in front of the postofice at Greenbrier in refer ence to some money which Earn hart was arranging to borrow from his sister-in-law, who was Demp- sey's daughter. During the con- troversy Dempsey struck Earnhart and knocked him to the ground. The latter arose with his knife in his hand and pursued Dempsey, finally reaching him and plunging his knife into Dempsey's back. Earnhart then, according to the prosecuting witnesses, turned and walked away from Dempsey and after he had taken about six steps was simultaneously attacked by John and Tillman Dempsey, the former stabbing him to the heart and the latter felling him with a large oak post.
 It is upon this point that the evi- dence of the state and the defense differs. The defense endeavored to prove that the attack by the younger Dempseys was made be- fore Earnhart had abandoned the difficulty with Smith Dempsey and practically at the same moment that Earnhart was cutting him; while the prosecution attempted to prove that the killing occurred as was stated in the foregoing para graph.

VILONIA SERVICE CHANGED
R. F. D. Service From This Point Again
 Made More Inconvenient.

If you live twelve or fifteen miles east of Conway on rural free de- livery route running out of Vilonia and desire to mail a letter to Con- way, it will require just sixty hours from the time the carrier gets your letter for it to reach the postoffice in this city. This state of affairs is brought about by change in the rural delivery service which becomes effective February I. Ru- ral route No. I of Vilonia has been changed to Beryl, while the two other routes remain at Vilonia.
 The mail to Vilonia is carried by the carrier of rural route No. to Beryl, reaching that point at ten a. m., where 1t is taken by the Beryl rural carrier to Vilonia. In this respect the service is an inn provement, as patrons will get their mail the same day that it is dispatched from Conway. But coming this way, the service is ex- tremely slow. A patron of a Vii lonia route, for example, deposits letter in his box Thursday morn- ing. It is taken up by the carrier, who reaches Vilonia with 1t by night. There it remains until II a. m., the next day, Friday, when it is picked up by the Beryl rural carrier. This carrier takes it 2I miles, reaching Beryl with it Fri day night. It remains in the Beryl office until Saturday morning at ten o'clock, when the carrier of R. F. D. No. 4 of Conway arrives, who takes around the balance of his route and reaches Conway, where it is put in the addressed s box at about 6 p. III. It has thus been on the route three days and two nights, reaching its destination, probably not over fifteen miles away, about sixty hours after it was dispatched. If the letter is addressed to Chicago it will reach that postoffice within about twenty hours after its receipt at Conway.

his people wired for. MT. Riley was prominent and consistent
 member of the Baptist church, and his presence and wise coun- sel will be sadly missed at Sun day school and church, services.
 The K. of P. lodge, of which he
 was a loved and honored member and which order oficiated at his interment, will also sadly miss him from their meetings. MT.
 Riley was principal of our school for three years and was until quite recently our county exami- ner, and in educational work he was truly a leader-the true
 friend of every teacher and pu- pill. Deceased was loved by ev- erybody on account :of his many virtues and few faults, and the large Baptist church and annex would not near furnish standing room for the friends who were there Monday afternoon to hear Rev. N. B. O'Kelley preach the funeral of this truly good man. The bereaved wife and three lit tie children have our sympathy.

AGAINST OWNERSHIP BY CITY
Waterworks Debate a Victory
 for Negative.
Interesting Program Rendered at the An nual Open Session of the Frank
 lin Literary Society.

That the city of Conway should own and operate system of water works was decided in the negative by the Franklin literary society of Hendrix College, at their annual open session held Saturday night. Both sides admitted the desirabili- ty and necessity of waterworks, the debate hinging upon the ques- ton of municipal ownership. The affirmative side, however, was handicapped by the illness of one of their debaters, A. A. Parsons, IT,, who was unable to take his part on the program. His written argument was considered by the critics in making up their decision, but, of course, no grade on deliv- cry could be given him.
 The Log Cabin Democrat pub fishes in another column this week the argument of MT. Parsons. Next week the remarks of the first speaker on the negative will be printed, and the other speeches will be given in the following two weeks.
 The program rendered at the open session was as follows:
 Piano solo, Miss Tucker.
 Defamation, "The Character of Lee"-L. E. Downs.
 Vocal Solo, "How Many Girls Have You Told That To"-Miss Minnie Livingston.
 Grafton, Social Progress in the United States, w. H. Langford.

LEE ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATED
Exercises at Methodist Church
 Sunday.
Business Houses of Conway Close for One Hour to Honor Memory of
 South's Great Hero. s

The one hundredth anniversary of the birth of Robert E. Lee was celebrated by appropriate exercises held at the Methodist church un- der the auspices of the United Daughters of the Confederacy and the United Confederate Veterans.
 At the appointed hour, II O clock, nearly every business house in the city closed its doors. The veterans and the U. D. C. marched into the church and were seated in pews reserved for them. Rev. J. J. Hurt presided over the exercises, which were opened with a prayer by Rev. J. B. Stevenson. Lees farewell message to his army upon the surrender at Appomatox was read by Prof. l.. c. Perry of Hen- drix College. The next feature of the program was a recitation, "The Sword of Lee," by Miss Byrne Par rish, which was followed by" Come Unto Me-" song by the combined choirs of the Methodist and Bap- tist churches.
 The address of the occasion was delivered by Prof. c. J. Greene of Hendrix College. His talk was beautiful tribute to the hero of the south, besides relating many facts and incidents giving an insight in- to the character of Robert E. Lee the man. From all the Saints" was sung by the choir, and after benediction by Pres. Stonewall Anderson, the meeting was ad- journed.
 The church was beautifully dec- orated for the occasion and the wall at the rear of the pulpit was adorn- ed with portrait of Lee.
