Loses a Valuable Horse.

Yesterday afternoon as Joe R.. Hamilton, who had gone to Lack land to spend Sunday, started out of the gate to the enclosure, for a drive with one of the Pres colt young ladies stopping there, the horse he was driving baked. Unhitching the animal, he at tempted to lead it out, when it ierked back, fell over and broke it's neck.
 The animal belonged to H. A. Hamilton, father of Joe, and was valued at S175.00. The loss falls heavily on the boys, who prized the animal for it's usefulness to them on their many pleasure trips.

Denutv Constable c. B. Moon Narrowly Escapes Harm at
 the Hands of a Bad Negro
TAKEN FROM AN ENGINE TODAY
Negro Very Nearly Had Officers Gun When Sim Johnson Struck Him Over the Head, and Marshal
 Marsh Made Him Surrender

This morning about 9:30 clock a strange negro jumped from a north bound through freight looking for an officer. Deputy Constable Moon was found, and the negro told him that there was another negro in the engine of the train, wanted for stealing amule at Homan, Ark. MT. Moon went to the engine, crawled up, and demanded the negro's sur render. The negro made at him with a coal scuttle, when the off cer drew his gun. The negro grabbed his gun, and both fell out of the engine in the tussle. The thief was getting a little the best of the fracas, when Sim Johnson, who stood near, struck him over the head with a saw, which flew out of his hand when it struck the negro's coconut.
 Undismayed, the negro was gaining on the officer, when Marshal Marsh appeared and threw his gun on the negro, and demanded his surrender. Look ing into the barrel of a big 3S the negro quickly gave up, and was taken to jail.
 At the jail there was found in a wallet, taken from his pocket, S7325, the proceeds from the sale ofa the mule, which the negro acknowledged he sold, but said that another negro had stolen it, and they were to meet in Little Rock and divide the money.
 Constable Moon had close call, for had the negro got full control of the gun he would with out a doubt have shot him, and without interference from John son and Marsh, the negro would doubtless have been successful.
 The captured negro gave his name as George Williams, but in

Little Rock, Aug 10.-Attor- ney General W. F. Kirby yester- day rendered his opinion in re- gard to the amount of money that may be used in the completion of the new state capitol The opin- ion was rendered at the request of the the State Capitol Com mission.
 Mir. Kirby is clearly of the opinion that there is no money available for continuing the work on the building, on account of the failure of the last legislature to make an appropriation there for. Even the unexpended bal ance of the million dollar appro- priation made by the legislature of 1905 according to Mr. Kirby's opinion, cannot be used because of the constitutional provision that appropriations cannot be made for a longer period than two years, after which an appro- priation or it's uneXpended bal ance shall lapse and be covered back into the treasury.
 The appropriation for the new state capitol became available in April, 1905, and the legislature of 1907 having failed to continue it or make a new appropriation, lapsed in April last, and in accor- dance with the provision of the state constitution as cited by Mir. Kirby, should have reverted to the treasury more than three months ago.
 Mr. Kirby holds that all money paid on account of the new state capitol since the expiration of the two years from the date when the act appropriating Sl,000, ,OOO for the construction of the build ing has been illegally expended.

w. s. Goodwin

In this issue of the News ap- pears the announcement of Hon. W. $. Goodwin of Bradley Coun- ty for Congress. The announce ment is no surprise to Mir. Good wins friends in this part of the state who have known that he would most likely be candidate. Mr. Goodwin is prominent law yer of Warren and has had ample opportunity to demonstrate his ability as statesman. He is at present state senator from his senatorial district and is univer- sally regarded as one of the ablest men in that body.
 MT. Goodwin's temperament is conservative. His record shows that he is friend of the people and he has the ability to express  himself as such without assum- ing the role of pedant or dema- gogue. Not the least qualification which MT. Goodwin has for the position he seeks is that he is clean in his private life and is a representative of the best class of citizenship of the state. He is in sympathy with every interest of the people whom he seeks to represent and if elected is fully able to render them a good ser vice.

PURSE IS CONFUSING A CLUE
Article Belonging to Murdered Old
Maid Serves to Puzzle
Authorities.

BLAINE, Feb. 16.-Sheriff Andrew
Williams, assisted by Marshal Well
man and others, today searched the
ruins of Addie Roper's home to see
if her purse could be found. They
sifted the ashes OF the house and
searched the debris. but found nothing
resembling what might have been the
victims purse.
Miss R0per's purse doomed into
prominence since the discovery in the
cell in the city jail Of torn fragments
OF purse identified by j. Marcus as
having belonged to the dead woman.
Marcus Identification of the purse
found in the cell which had been oc-
cupied by the suspects is general He
says it is like the purse carried by
Miss Roper When it is considered
that the purse was very ordinary, and
there may have been many like it sold
in Blaine, the identification, so far
as being damaging circumstance
against suspects. is weakened
Sheriff Williams today found five
people who were Miss ROper's init
mate friends and when shown the
purse they could not identify it. Sew
eral of them said that she never car
ried purse and they are not agreed
| as to the color OF the purse which she
did carry.
1t was stated by Marcus bookkeeper
| that Miss Roper had two purses or
pOcketbOOks. One she kept in desk
at the office and the other she carried
with her in net handbag The latter
was a round leather purse, it is said
by some while others, among them
being Marcus, say that she had fiat.
square pOcketbOOk or purse on the
order of wallet carried by men. The
| purse found in the cell is square.
A fact which is puzzling the officers
! is the disappearance of the pOcketbook
which she kept at the store On this
| Saturday night she took it with her. It
| is prOblematical what it contained
! 1t may have been filed with treasure
taken by the murderer or burned. To-
| night, instead of the case being nearer
| solution the muddle is denser.
"I'll be in Blaine for an indefinite
period said Sheriff Williams tonight
ct may take a day or week or
month to sift this case down and get
at the truth, but time doesn't matter"
The sheriff said that he had some
people to see in the country tomorrow.
| but indicated that the facts to be
gathered from them would be sub
stantiative instead of original or new.
When the mystery of the purse is
| cleared up Or abandoned as an impos-
sible thing. the red bandana which
was stuffed into the mouth of the
victim will be the basis of a thorough
inquiry.
