FUND IS GROWING;
 NEAR SI000 MARK
Miss Ray Burkhalter Will Soon Leave For a College in the Far East to Complete Her Education.

Little Rock, Ark, Aug. 30.-The fund started for the benefit of Miss Ray Burkhalter, started at the time Earl Dill was acquitted of the charge of criminally assaulting her, has reach ed $700, with excellent prospects of reaching $1,000 as many of the towns of the state have raised funds and not turned them in. Little has been said recently about the fund, but the contributions continue to roll in slow ly. The fund will be used to send Miss Burkhalter, who was attending a commercial college here when the crime occurred, endeavoring to fit herself for the battle of life, away to school in order that she might con- plete her education. Miss Burnhalter is an ambitious young woman and has expressed the determination of apply ing the fund raised for her to the best of advantage. She will probably go to school in the far East where the story of the crime has not travelled.

 Systematic town boosting is e .ea sure of American business actis.t- which aims at the general good !nste,.L of personal profit. One westc.:: tc--- had a board of trade which had slept along for years without doing anything in particular, except eating some food once year at banquet and listening to some spread eagle oratory, says tAe Pittsburg Dispatch. Tho organization hecame moribund. and its presidency was an honor no longer sought for. The directors met and gave the place to a young man of the type i've like .c encourage" The young man took hi, Job seriously and went to work. Ii wasn't long before he grew an idea oi his own.
 Every family that moved to town ,> spotted. Employment was provided tor the b.eadwinners where necessary snd the new people were made to fee at home. When this personal atten don had got in its work. represents i've of the board of trade interviewed the head of the new family. This in terview was Incorporated Into letter. mimeograph copies were made, put into stamped envelopes and made ready to mail. Then the letters were taken to the newcomer. and he was asked to address them to his friends "back cast" The scheme worked like magic and the population boomed. Of tha, Idea many new ones were born. The young man has been several times re. elected president of the board of trade and he can have anything the people of that town can give him

approached the desk sergeant, and in

The sergeant in a kind voice advised
him to go to the municipal lodging

him to see that he did not go astray
Having arrived at the municipal lodg.

the place took him in and saw TO il
that he had place to sleep for the

WAIVE A HEARING.

Reduction Of Bail on Charges
Against Them.
NO EVIDENCE is HEARD
Attorney for Defense Gives Out State
ment in Which He Says the
Prosecution viii Fail.

Detectives Thomas Cox and Thomas
Gordon appeared this morning before
Justice G. Albert Johnson, and through
their attorneys, Searle & Marshall.
waived preliminary examination or
the charges of extortion and conspir-
acy to extort, sworn out against them
by Henry Teska. States Attorney L..
M. Magill asked the justice to increase
the officers bonds to $1,000 on each
case, instead of $500 on each C. j.
Searle, representing the defendants
argued that the men are not likely to
become fugitives, and contended for a
bond of $3.50 on each charge. This
was the amount finally fixed by Justice
Johnson. The bond was promptly fur
nished, the sureties being NJ H. Sex,
ton and William Cox. The case will
now rest until the grand jury passes
on it.
Is Only One Charge.
c. J. Searle. on behalf of the defend
ants, waived examination in both
cases, but On the question of bail he
called attention to the fact that one
complaint charged the defendants
with conspiracy to extort money, and
the other with actually extorting the
money: that it was manifest that the
defendants couldn't be guilty of both
otfenses, as even if they were actually
guilty of getting the money and by
the means as charged, the charge of
intent and purpose to obtain it, would
be merged in the completed offense.
and the defendants couldn't be found
guilty OF both offenses; and that since
the maximum fine for the actual com
mission of the offense was $500, lie
in each case was sufficient: view in
which was sustained and the bail was
reduced to the amount stated.
Have No Evidence.
When Mr.. Searle was asked as %
his reason for waving examination
he said while he positively knew that
the state had no evidence TO prove
the guilt of the defendants. as the
very man who they were charged with
extorting money from would unquaii
fiedly testify that the charge was
false in every particular, yet there
was no object TO be gained by takina

the case with the old sailing ships
