Little Rock, Ark, Oct. G.
 At the penitentiary the officials are not delighted with the pros poet of receiving Yates Stand ridge. who has been sentenced to serve 50 years in the peniten- tiarv for the mnrder of N. N. Bozeman and Mrs. Nancy Over turt. back into the fold. He was sentenced by the Newton county circuit court, when he entered a plea of guilty to the two murders and an assault with intent to kill.
 He is now on his way back to the penitentiary, wher he has spent the most ot the last eight cen months, except for the brief time he was out and committed the crimes for which he received his long sentence. When Stand ridge arrives, he will be taken to the rock crusher beneath Ft. Logan H. Roots and pnt to work. The officials have placed a guard in a new place at the crusher in a position to guard the hill and cut off escape in that direction, so Supt. Pitcock has no fears that Standridge will get away again.

LUDWIG CALLED
 TO HOT SPRINGS
Secretary of State Wanted Before Grand Jury about
 Election Returns

Little Rock, Oct. 4. 4.-Secreta- ry of State o. C. Ludwig yester- day received a summons from the Garland county circuit court to appear before the grand jury of that court Monday morning with the returns of the election as certified to him by the cleo tion commissioners of Garland county relative to the vote for state senator from that district. The summons was served through the sheriffs office here.
 Secretary Ludwig stated last night that he would answer the summons by going to Hot Springs accompanied by the re- quired records Monday morning, arriving there at II o'clock. It is presumed that the Grand Jury will be in readiness to take up the matter at once so as not to detain MT. Ludwig any longer than necessary from his official duties.
 The move to have the official returns as certified to the secre- tary of state brought before the grand jury is part of the plan in the present suit for a writ of mandamus entered by Charles D. Greaves to have the election returns certified in full, including those from the four voting pre- cincts thrown out by the com misissiOners.

nYNAMlIE FOR CHlEf

Fort Smith, Oct. 3. In the discovery by a garbage man of a cap and fused stick of dynamite in one of the trash boxes on the main street there is an indication of an attempt on the life of Chief of police Surratt.
 It has been his custom for a long time to appear on the street
The Nevada County picayune., 1908-10-08

before daylight, and he has usually emptied the paper out of the boxes and set fire to it. It is surmised that someone seeking revenge placed the dynamite in the box expecting Chief Surratt would set it off in burning the paper, in which event the dyna- mite would probably have blown him to atoms.

NIGHT RIDERS
 AT JONESB0RO
Burn Three Houses When Demands are Unheeded-
 Warning at Dumas.

Jonesboro, Oct. 6.-News has reached here of the burning of two residences and one tenement house by night riders, causing a loss of more than $4,0O0. The fires, which occurred Sunday night at Leslie, followed the receipt of warnings from night riders, the demands of which could not be fulfilled by the farmers warned.
 In this instance the price of cotton had nothing to do with the depredations of the night maraudeas who demanded that better and more houses be built for tenants and that better fen ces be built.
 The houses burned were the property of William Stewart and Andrew Schug. Both live near Lester in the northern part of Craighead county. The fires were set Sunday night while the families were at church. When they returned they found their homes in ruins.

EXPERT
To LOCATE HERE

What promises to be an address of
particular interest will be given this
afternoon at the regular meeting Of the
Promotion Committee by A. b. Leek-
enby, whose subject will be "Home
Building" Mr.. Leckenby is scien-
tifc horticulturist and plant expert,
formerly with the Federal experiment
stations at Washington, and latterly
with the Great Northern railroad, max
ing Investigations of land possibilities
for the latter for their homestead work.
He is the originator of several new
plants, breeding new specimens through
selection and cross fertilization, and has,
since leaving the employment of the
Great Northern, engaged industrially in
growing flowers and plants for market.
He has spent a short time in Hawaii,
long enough, however, to become salts
fed that this country offers exceptional
advantages to one in his profession, and
he has decided to make his home near
Honolulu and conduct his experiments
and work here.
Since his arrival he has visited the
pineapple fields at Wahiawa several
times, having discovered that some OF
the plants are being affected with dis
ease. His first work will be to grow
pineapple plants from seedlings to Sc
cure plants that will be with their suck
ers immune from this local disease
which the imported plants do not ap-
pear to be. 1t appears that "being
born on the soil' has a multitude OF
advantages for plants as well as poll
ticians.
