along nicely. Kuykendall is in Jail

He said that the reason Simpkins

afraid. He did not know whether
Simpkins was innocent or not, but took
issue with the statement of Hawley
that his flight proved his guilt. He
said If that was true, the fact that
Haywood, Meyer and Pettibone did not
flee proved their innocence.
Federation Is Blamed.
But neither proposition was true,
Hawley blamed the federation for re-
electing Simpkins to the executive
board. But if he had not been re-elect,
ed, Hawley would have said that
showed beyond doubt that the man was
guilty.

Finding Diamonds in Arkansas

Upon a tract of about 500 acres neal
Murfreesboro, in Pike County, south
western Arkansas, some 100 miles
from the city of Little Rock, more
than $50 diamonds have been found
within the past year. Ia size, they
vary from Lea carat to 6! carats; in
color, from dark brown to the high
priced blue-white.
Fifteen people discovered al these
Jewels, mostly by kneeling on the
ground and poking them up with
sticks from within one or two inches
OF the surface. Even in It's rough
state, the diamonds glitter Is IN
mistakable. After one successful ex-
perience, the lucky searcher does not
fail to recognize it again.
One diamond was excavated from a
depth OF fifteen feet. Indeed, the same
rock which furnishes the gems on the
surface has been proved. by three sets
of drillholes. to remain constant to a
denth OF over 200 feet. And this blue
green rock, decomposed "peridotite,"
resembles geologically the "blue
ground" of the Kimberly mines in
South Africa, from which fortunes
ave been taken in diamonds within
thirty years.-From HAS A~rkansssa
