WANT THE LAW RIGIDLY Y ENFORCED
Memorial Presented to Court OS- fiCials Asking For Enforce
 ment of the Law

A committee from the Newark Law and Order League, appointed for that purpose, went to Bates vile Monday and presented to the circuit judge and prosecuting attorney the following memorial, which was adopted at recent m ass meeting at the Baptist church:
 To The Honorable Judge of the Circuit Court and Prosecuting Attorney of the Third JudiciaE Circuit of Arkansas, greeting:
 We, the citizens of the town of Newark and surrounding commun- lty In mass meeting assembled beg to submit the following mem orial for your earnest considera- tion:
 First. We fully appreciate, endorse and commend your lenient course in trying to pursuade the keepers of blind tigers to desist in further violations of the law by disposing of all such cases in 2 manner favorable to the defend ants.
 Second. That while this clem-- ency has been shown from court to court, this crime has increased in our community until we, as law abiding citizens, could stand for it no longer without protest.
 Third. In view of this indis- putable fact that .clemency has caused no abatement in this crime, we therefore, humbly petition you to pursue more rigid course in dealing with the crime mentioned and that you do not permit any more dismissals, continuances and minimum fines.
 Fourth. We would also respect fully ask that you call the atten- tion of the grand jury to the mt ter and instruct that honorable body to make thorough, com plete and rigid examination of the violation of the laws by parties running blind tigers and gambling dens in our com- munity. Owing to our being un- able to convict any of these viola tors in our inferior courts, we hereby appeal to you for a rigid investigation, feeling that it is cur only recourse. In granting these request we fully believe that you will prescribe panacea for this evil and thereby command q higher esteem from all concerned. For all of which we shall ever feel grateful.

HINKLE ADMITS TAKING POODLE
Ex-Sena+or From This District Flakes Startling Disclosures
 in CovingtOn Trial.

L1CGle ROCK, Aprll o.-W 1Cn disclosures of alleged wholesale graft almost startlig in magnitude even to those who are most con- versant with conditions, the sec- days trial of Senator A. w. Gov ington brought forth developments that have shaken the whole state and made the case the topic of un- versal discussion wherevere Ark ansas politics are known. The unusual feature was developed by the attorney for the defendent bringing out evidence that, if trse is of the most discriminating na- ture, and the public prosecutor, at the close of the days session, declared that the half had not yet been divulged with reference to former boodling in the Arkansas legislature. His words are con- sidered signifcantof developments yet to come in the prosecution of the alleged offenders.
 Sensations came thick and fast when Senator John A. Hinkle was placed on the stand. To those who were best posted, they were not unexpected. But the magnitude of the alleged conspiracy unfolded by the witness was dumfounding even to the public prosecutor.
 It was Col. G. W. Murphy, counsel for Covington, who forced the question by asking Senator John A. Hinkle if he knew anything of $7, 300 being put up by way of a bribe to defeat the passage of the beer inspection bill.
 It was during the cross. exami- nation by Col. Murphy that the witness was led to point which brought the Prosecuting Attorney to his feet to object that the ques- tion was irrelevant. Col. Murphy had asked the witness if he did not go before the grand jury and swear that he went to the office of Herman Kahn and there receive $5,000 in an unbroken package and S2, 300 in broken one, as payment for action that had been taken on the Fuller beer inspec- tion bill.
 The witness objected to answer ing the question and Prosecuting Attorney Rhoton made objection to the question on the ground that it was not relevant to the present case and immaterial, but he, how ever withdrew the objection. The witness was told by Judge Lea that he could not be compelled to give discriminating evidence, but that where other persons were con- cerned he must answer the ques- tiOn.
 The prosecuting attorney also stated to the court that if the wit ness would tell the whole truth in reference to the capitol building, the beer inspection, the railroad bill, the Argenta bill and other bills which had been corruptly handled he would, with the con- sent of the court, be willing to promise such immunity as might be consistent with justice, but that he desired that Senator Hinkle's S statement be, taken under such conditions as would render him liable in the event the witness should not tell tie truth. He stated the witness was as guilty as any man in the penitentiary and that if he would tell the truth, it would throw great deal of light on the investigation that had not heretofore been known.
 It was at this point that the

Now, listen to this, from the mind
of one Of the leading theologians and
ministers of the United States: THE
kiss devil is doing more to fill hell
than the whiskey devil In the
South, in the days of our grand-par-
ents such an attempt was a grave in
suit, and the man who offered it and
the young woman's father or brother
met with pistols at the next sunrise
So says the Rev. D. l.. Bass, pastor
of the Calvary Baptist church Of Cal
70, Illinois. But, dear doctor, as long
as you have lived and as much as you
have seen don't you know that the
Puritan maid was, nor is, anything
but a splendid fraud. SWeethearts
will kiss, dear doctor, despite you and
your philippe. The average swain be-
lieyes that one touch O. a sWecthearts
Inns is worth an eternity in hell
and, the Rev. D. l.. Bass, these SWANS
are supported in opinion by the judge
ment of all men of all times "Where
did you get that" as we say out West
that the way Of affection leads to
hell?

Every one likes a novelty, and even
the work apron can be cut in new

can be made as charming as possible.
They may be very elaborate with
lace and embroidery and bright rib

feathcrstitched ruf1le, edged with va
Tenderness lace, as the only decoration.
Some women wear fancy aprons
when they are dressed for an after
noon at home, and a fine white one can
be changed in appearance by having
several shades of delicate ribbons to
use on different occasions.
These aprons are tiny affairs, just
large enough to serve the purpose and
preserve the name. PIE more useful
work apron should be of generous pro-
portions, as it Is not generally used for
dressy occasions.
Coored embroidery is used frequent
ly upon fancy aprons with dainty eff

at Bray, near Maidenhead, yesterday.
The wedding party proceeded to and
from Bray church by electric and steam
launches gaily decked in green and
white The brides launch-an electric
boat-was lavishly decorated with cherry
blossoms, lilies and spirea, and when oc-
cupied by the bride, wearing lace dress
of honiton applique trimmed with silver
embroidery, and the bridesmaids, in pale
mauve eolienne, and bouquets of pink
roses, presented a very picturesque sight.
Five other launches followed. The we'd
ding party started by water from West
Court, in Bray Reach. and disembarked
and re-embarked at the vicarage lawn.
The contracting parties were Miss Mary
