That was a peculiar thing to do. be-
cause she could not have expected let

ing that she did 50. that was prior to
her seeing the Adams letter IN Brown's
before she reached Browns room.
THE strain at last had become too
great, and, as said by Dr.. Evans, nothing
but the interposttion Of divine Provt-

Sheriffs in Session.

The Arkansas Sheriff's Association was in session this week at the Pu. laski county court house. They were unanimous in their stand for the en- forcment of the pistol and liquor laws of the state as passed or amended by the last General Assembly. They also passed resolutions asking the sherlhs of other states to aid in the capture and extradition of escaped criminals from Arkansas and pledged themselves statto aid the sheriffs of ather states to work likewise to aid the sherlifs of other states. It was also the sense of the meeting that every sheriff of Arkansas should take particular pains to notify the public press the moment a crime is committed. The sheriffs believe that publicity Will ald in tracking criminals instead of acting as a handicap.

Pardons Granted.

Acting Governor K O. Pindall. has pardoned Robert $. Daughtry, who shot and killed Joe Sarlo, a Main street saloon-keeper last September, was convicted and sentenced to if teen years in the penitentiary. The trouble between Daughtry and Sarlo arose over a misunderstanding in re- gard to business matter. The two men had been engaged as partners in the saloon business. Sarlo filed peti- tion in bankruptcy, containing among other liabilities claim of Daughtry's for $325. This was claimed by the prosecution to have been the motive for the shooting. Daughtry entered the saloon about II o'clock on the night of September IS, 1905, and shot Sar- To twice, inflicting wounds from which he died four hours later. Daughtry claimed the shooting was in self-de- fense. Daughtry is a son-in-law of the late w H. Eagle, who was the wealth. 1 fest cotton planter in LOnoke county. Pardons were also granted to Jim Roberts, convicted in the Jefferson Circuit Court in October last on charge of forgery and sentenced to two years in the penitentiary; Walter Hagg, convicted in the Cralghead GIT cult Court in February last on the charge of grand larceny and sentenced to one year in the penitertiary; Elias Southerland, convicted in the Newton Circuit Court in July, 1906, on the charge of murder in the second degree and sentenced to five years in the pen itentiary, was granted a pardon, and Tom Richardson, a negro, convicted of murder in the second degree in Jefferson county and serving ten year term in the penitentiary. Rich ardson had always borne good repu- tation, and his petition for pardon was signed by many prominent and 1nf1u- ential citizens. He killed negro named McBeth about two years ago.
 Acting Governor X. o. Pindall has granted several pardons this week, among them being Will Muldrow, con victed in the Howard county circuit court in February, 1906, on the charge of involentary manslaughter and sen fenced to one year in the state penl- tentiary, and one to Mrs. Vanpelts, re- gently convicted of bigamy in the l Crawford Circuit Court and sentenced to three years in the penitentiary. Several years ago Mrs. Vanpelt's hus- l band was anjudged insane and was and was adjudged insane and was committed to the State Hospital for Nervous Diseases, where he is still confined Mrs. Vanpelt, having been informed that she could remarry, pro- cured marriage licnse and was mar ried to John Ferguson, a coal miner in Sebastian county. The justice of the peace who married the couple swore out the warrant for her arrest and she was indicted, convicted and sentenced to three years in the penitentiary

State Capital Notes

Little Rock.-The first move for the annexation of Argenta to the capital city will be made this week, when an effort will be made to secure the requi- site number of signatures to start the ball rolling The Oldham Hamiter bill for the annexation of the cities passed the last General Assembly, April 2, after one of the hardest fought con tests of the legislature. Under the terms of the law, fifty qualified voters of Argenta, the city to be annexed, may petition the County Court, and it is made mandatory on the County Court that an order be issued calling for a special election to be held in both cities. Each city will have one polling clerk and one judge in each of the polling places in both cities, who shall conduct the election. If a majority of the persons voting on the issue shall favor annexation after the official re- turns made to the secretary of state the cities shall be consolidated. In case Little Rock and Argenta should be annexed the obligations of Argenta will become the debt of Little ROCK, but will be paid pro rata according to the revenue derived from the smaller city. The property of Argenta will become the property of the united city. Under the law equal rights as to pub lie utilities. fire and police protection must be accorded Argenta. If the con- solidation is consummated Argen- ta will become a part of Little Rock as a ward, the same as before the sep aration.
