SECOND TEAAl

On account Of the many things which
have iuterfered with the proper playing
Of the high school football series this
year, # becomes a difficult task to pick
team from the men who have engaged
IN at least two OF The games for filling
positions on a theoretical All-High eleven.
Ineligibility rules. parental interference,
and disqualification by the referee have
played havoc with the ranks Of the teams.
and have caused the temporary and per
mRnent loss Of some men, who are, with
out question. Of AH-High caliber.
The series has been broken up in many
ways and was not even completed. There
fore, in view Of the fact that only few
men played in all the games which their
schedules called FOR, the writer does not
consider that those men who were dis
qualified by the inehgibility rule, there

prived Of the candidacy for positions on

Eastern. both with three years Of play

ends. The former is possibly the best
man at the extreme position in the high
schools, and besides being an eNcep-
tionally fast and active runner. has a
rethod peculiarly his own in effectually
breaking up the interference formed for
attempts at skirting his end. Fitzhugh,
on the other hand, Is TO be recommended
mostly for his defensive work. On the
offensive he has been of little value 10
his team but he showed up as a defen-
sive without an equal. His tackling is
sure and deadly. and his covering of
punts is the best of the season.
At tackle capt. Mccarthy, OF Technical,

capable leader on the field. showing a

HE'S THE FATHER OF "a

to his War Pension.

Bernard Reilly, civil war veteran
who has been on a government pen
sion, was arraigned yesterday in spec
ial sessions on a charge of failing to
pay 81 80 a week for the support of
three CT his children now in the city
institutions.
Il am the father of twenty-four chill
dren, eighteen dead and six living,
said Reilly.
You have done pretty well for your
country said Justice Moss, and de-
serve a pension"
Il have one replied Reilly, but it
is hardly enough to support myself,
let alone the children. It's hard to
obtain work nowadays"
Officers of the Gerry society told the
Justices that Reilly had been before
the court several times since 1904 for
drinking and neglect of his children.
Sentence was suspended on condition
that he pay part of what he owes to
the city before April 20.

ARRESTED FOR
 MANSL AUCHTER

An article in today's Russellvllle Courier Democrat tells of the arrest of David Eakin, one of the oldest locomotive engineers on the Fort Smith road, who is we'll known i'll Conway. The article says:
 Engineer Dave Eakin Of the Iron Mountain local freight which collided with the D. x R. and caused the death of fireman Jack Bringham, was last week arrested on a charge of man. slaughter for alleged carelessness. Tine arrest was the resultof the yer dict of the coroner's jury, and the warrant was issued by Coroner Odom.
 Engineer Eakin has been in three wrecks in the past few months the one last week being beyond doubt the result of carelessness. The collision occurred on a straight stretch of track just as he was pull ing out from the station, and he claims that he was reading his or ders and for this reason failed to see the train in front of him.

Little Rock, Jan. 22.-Special.- Pardon application No. has been made to Governor Donaghey, and like the first one, it has been re- fused. A petition for pardon which was sent to Acting Govern or Pindall asking the pardon of Byrd Epps, a negro serving three years from Woodruff county for at tempt at criminal assault, was re- newed yesterday by the friends of Epps and after hearing, Govern or Donaghey refused to interfere with the sentence being carried out. Attorneys and prominent men of Woodruff county wrote to the governor stating there could be no doubt of the negro's innocence, but as feeling was running high at the time of his arrest, he entered a plea of guilty and was given three years.

STATE WIDERS WIN AGAIN
Bill to Prevent Manufacture of
 Liquor in Tennessee.
Passes House and Now Goes to the Cover nor who is Expected to
 Veto It.

Nashville, Tenn, Jan, 2I.-At $40 o'clock this afternoon the lower house of the legislature, by a vote of 60 to 30, passed on final reading the bill to prohibit the manufacture of intoxicants! in Ten nessee after January I, 1910.
 The bill has already passed the senate and now goes to the govern or, who is expected to veto it, as he did the bill prohibiting the sale of llquor.
 Like the latter, the measnre will probably pass over the governor s veto.
 The consideration of the bill to- day precipitated hot debate which opened at II a. m., and with the exception of a recess from I2 to 2, lasted until $40 when the vote was taken. The debate was so bitter that the speaker, MT. Taylor, took the floor in behalf of his po- sition opposing the measure.
 
 An amendment providing for the appointment of commission com- posed of the governor, the treasur- CT and the controller, whose duty it would be to appraise the property and assess the damages that would accrue to the distillers and brewers by reason of the passage of the bill. This amendmentment was voted down by practically the same vote recorded on the final passage of the bill.
 An amendment extending the time until January I, 1911, was was also tabled. As during all previous consideration of the liquor bills the galleries were crowded and the most intense interest was manifested.
 On the announcement ot the vote, another demonstration, such as attended the passage of the "state- wide" bill was indulged i'll.
