CHANGING OF INAUGURAL DATE

Probably few casual readers of American history could tell off, hand on what day George Wash ington was inaugurated. In 1789 it was not until April 9th that a quorum of the senate was secured and the vote for president and vice president officially consoli- dated and announced. Then it took eight days to get the news to General Washington at his home in Mount Vernon, Va.
 Forty hours later he was on his way north, receiving an ovation all along the route. John Adams took the oath of office on April 21. but it was April 30 before General Wash ington was inaugurated as the first president.
 Those who advocate changing the date of the inauguration quote this historic incident in support of their attempt to make April 30 the day. The chief argument in favor of a change is that better weather conditions might be hoped for late in April that in March.

VIM. POLLOCK KILLS HIMSELF

Little Rock, Feb. 20.-In a bedchamber of his beautiful home at 1213 Cumberland street, at z o'clock this morning William Pol lock. who has been prominently connected with the German Ma tional Bank of this city for more than a quarter of a century, died instantly from a self-inflicted wound.
 Dependency as the result of ill health which, it is presumed, caused a temporary mental de- engagement, is the only cause that can be ascribed by relatives and business associates for the sui eide. which created a sensation in Little Rock business and social circles on account of the promi- hence of the victim and his family.
 Without an intimation of his intended act, if it had been long premeditated, or without having uttered a word which would cause his family or intimate friends to suspect that a thought of suicide had ever taken hold of his mind, or without leaving a word of ex- planation, William Pollock fired the fatal shot, while his son, Roy. aged 20, was sleeping in the same room and npon the same bed,

Governor George w. Donaghey late yesterday afternoon, after rendering the position to E. w.. Rector, which was declined, ap- pointed J. L, Wadley, editor of the Hot Springs Ne Hs, to repre- sent the Thirty-frst district, composed of Garland and Mont gomery counties, recently declar- ed vacant by that body.
 Governor Donaghey stated that he had first rendered the position to E. w. Rector of Hot Springs, who represented the Garland county in the house in 1891 and was speaker of that body, but that MT. Rector declined to ac- cept the commission on account of his health. and that he con- sidered the next best thing to do was to appoint MT. Wadley. The governor said that during his campaign for the nomina tion for governor Mir. Wadley was one of his most ardent support CTS, and this fact, together with his personal knowledge of his qualifications to fill the position creditably, influenced him in making the appointment. In selecting a Garland county man, he stated, it was with difficulty he made up his mind to choose between MT. Wadley and c. T. Gotham, whose recommendation for appointment was of the strongest character.

KANSAS MAY BE REAL DRY

Topeka, Kan, Feb. 19. If Governor Stubbs signs the anti liquor bill passed by both the house aud the senate, Kansas will have an absolute prohibition law, which even prohibits phy- sicians from prescribing liquor. The Senate today accepted the house amendment barring physi- clans prescriptions.
 The bill provides that any person who shall manufacture sell or barter any spirituous, malt, vinous fermented or other intoxicating liquors shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. The punishment is a fine for each offense of $100 to $500 and im- prisonment of from 30 to 90 days in jail. The only exception made in the act is the sale of wine for communion purposes. The new act does away entirely with drug store permits to sell liquor. Gov. ernor Stubbs is said to favor the hill
