 ROASTS SENATE

Senator Henry B. McKinzie of Prescott, who is we'll known i'll Conway, where he graduated from Hendrix College several years ago, in an article in the Prescott News this week, makes a severe criticism of the last state senate, of which he was member. MT. Mckenzie says in part;
 "I have no words of praise for the senate as whole. A body that will in the beginning organize against the interests of temperance yet claim to be for temperance, a body that disgraces itself in the beginning by lodging truth i'll an election contest, that declares for nepotism in the election of pages and chaplain a body that professes to be composed of Christian citizens and yet votes to legalize gambling in Hot Springs and under the guise of local legislation votes for Sunday base ball in Pine Bluff, that body of Christian senators who voted to make a railroad in eastern Arkan- sas run its trains on Sunday when it's founder and his successors had maintained a firm stand against Sunday traffic and sabbath break ing froml the beginning, and last but not least, a body of professedly temperance men, who would elect rank booze fighter and whisky advocate for lieutenant governor do not deserve the praise of any body. As senate 1t was in many respects a disgrace to the state. Notwithstanding this and leaving myselaentirely out of cors iteration, the senate had some ot the be t men in the state. They were pow erless to do anything however, un- der the circumstances and quit and left for home thoroughly dis gusted."

LANGDON MAKES

Six Rounds. s

six-round bout with Tommy Langdon,
Of Port Richmond. at the Washington
Sporting Club last night, was entitled

round with the exception of the third
and then he managed to get an even
break.
With all the jabs that Langdon was
obliged to take. he was game, and all
ways looked for more. He lacked the
science that his opponent had and used
to such good advantage.
In the opening round Driscoll started
his famous jabbing. and soon had Lang
don lodging from side to side. The pace
WAS rather fast for Tommy. but he was
there To stay the limit. Langdon was not
able to make much progress in the open
iiis round. as Driscolls jabs usually
There was more clever feotwork and
Jabbins on the part Of Driscoll in the Sec
ond round. the majority Of the short blows
landing on Tommy's face and body. Dris-
coll was lighting easy. and Langdon a1-
peared 10 be looking for some SORT of an
opening.
The Port Riehmonder really made his
best showing in the third round, when.
he rushed DriscOll to the ropes, with n
series of body punches and soon had the
Englishman mouth bleeding. a right
uppercut to the face bringing the blood.
The crowd cheered heartily for Tommy to
maintain his speed. but il was no use.
The strain was too much He had on
tanned an even break IN the round. and
after that Driscon led all the way.

match, the opening night of the tour
nament, has not been us yet ap-
preached, it is believed that several
quintets will either come close to it
or pass 1t before long.
