Prizes for the best work in beauti-
tying the landscape about the city
under the auspices of the Watertown
Outdoor Art association, were award
ed the successful contestants at a
meeting of the association last even
ing, which was presided over by Pres
ident H. Wertheimer.
The prizes were awarded by Prof
W. P. ROseman, given by w. j.
Stube, IS; DR.. 7. F. Shinnick, So; H.
Wertheimer, s. in two prizes; Times
Publishing company, So; w. C. Stone,
$3.50. The report of the committee
on the work of the contestants is as
follows:
To the Officers and Members of the
WatertOwn Outdoor Art Associa-
ton:
Your committee appointed to pass
| judgment upon the work of contest
ants for prizes offered for best work
done in identifying unsightly places,
| beg leave to report that on or about
June 20 they visited twenty-five sites
and that September 10 or a few days
later, they again visited the same
sites for the purpose of deciding upon
! the best work done.
The committee was surprised at the
results achieved and it is after care
full consideration, point by point, that
a decision has been reached.
! To Reginald Humphrey, ten years
of age, has been awarded first place,
because he effected the greatest trans
formation. His grounds at COZ Lafay-
| cite street were in a crude state
some parts even ugIy-and out of
them he evolved an attractive sur
rounding, suggestive of beauty.
Gerhardt Trachte, 813 Third street,
is awarded second place because his
work was specially good in design. 1t
could almost rank with that of pro
| fessional landscape gardener in this
| particular.
| Arthur Krebs, fourteen years of
| age, improved upon and rounded out
his work Of last year 50 that this
year his grounds at PIT Seventh
street could be called beautiful. To
him is awarded third place.
Adolph Stiemke is entitled to
Fourth place because of the unity and
| harmony in his work. His work is a
good example of what the society in
| tended to accomplish by Offering a
prize, viz: to make and keep beauti-
| full a spot whose utility is a necessity
! Herman Kohlbry, 511 North Church
street, also had much to overcome in
| the way of necessary hindrances, but
showed considerable ingenuity in Ov-
| grooming them and presented ali at
| tractive back yard, as we'll as an i'm
proved lawn and boulevard. To him
is given fifth place.
| At Ellsworth Miller's, 302 Ninth
| street, we found a model back yard in
regard to neatness; the result Of per-
sistent and careful attention. To him
| is given sixth place.
| The committee also wish to make
| honorable mention of John Keck, 300
Second street; Freddie Wolf, 512
North Montgomery street; Arthur
Buege, 706 Market street; Fred Hol-
| lenbeck, 4O8 Washington street, and
Harold Cruger, 415 Washington street,
all of whom worked we'll and did their
part toward identifying our city.
Respectfully submitted,
IdaIine Stone,
Ella Wilder,

Kir, by. The governor has been ill for some days, and is just now recovering, and as soon as he is able, he will prepare to enter the fight. He has been asked to make some speeches in the national campaign, also, and will do this. He is an eloquent speaker, there being few orators in the state who can surpass him, and his eff forts, especially in support of Hon. w. J.

The Supreme Court Today Sustains At. tOrney General Kirby in State
 Capitol Case.
Special to the News.

Little Rock, Jan. 20.-1:O5 p. m. The Supreme court this morning unamously sustained the opinion of Attorney Gener, al Kirby on the question of using the State Capitol fund for the completion of thenewstate house. The decision, rendered by Chief Justice Hill, covers seven type written pages, and is concurred in by the other four Justices.
 The opinion says:
 Has the legislature any power whatever over this fund, raised for the purpose of building the new state house? In considering this question it must be borne in mind that the legislature has un- limited power over all of the states internal affairs, except where restrained by positive con- stitutional provisions. There are no provisions in the constitution to change matters except that the fund shall not be diverted.
 It is not unusual in appropri- ating funds for the legislature, in fixing amount for certain pur- poses, to forbid certain thing S and command others. Why has not the legislature some discre- tion in appropriating this fund? There is no mandamus for the legislature to make this appro- priation, or act ip the premises, and its silence is as potent as positive action. The appropria tion of 1903. is in keeping with this clause of the constitution and is necessarily void beyond two years, and the legislature not having acted since that time, the funds, must be reserved in the treasury until another legis. lature appropriates it for thepur- pose for which it was created. Judgment reversed and man, damuS denied. "
 The case was a petition for mandamus against State Audi tor Avery E. Moore by w. B.. Alexander, of Pine Bluff, mem Der of State Capitol Commission on warrant for S1400 salary. Judge Wingfield, of the second division of the Pulaski Circuit Court, granted mandamus. At torney General Kirby, for Audi, tor Moore, appealed to the Su- preme Court.
 The decision today may mean an extra session of the legisla- ture in the near future to con- sider the matter of appropriat- ing money for the completion. of the building which is now suffer ing from the weather.
