WASHINGTON. March 26.-Soon
after the house convened AT III O'CLOCK
Rep. Pou obtained the floor and be-
gan an attack upon the Payne BILL lie
said in part:
II make bold 10 assert here and now
that the Payne bill is a worse meas
ure than the Dinglcy bill. which all
parties now admit must pass from
the pages OF our law books In the
teeth OF your promise to the people 10

average OF ad valorem rate OF s4.l6

You have a deficit In the treasury

cover that deficit. OF course you have

members OF this body 10 unite In one
common effort TO uefeat this, the
worst OF all tariff bills ever submitted
for the consideration OF the American
congress"
Approaching that there Is a serious
difference OF opinion on some OF the
tariff schedules among a number OF
prominent Republicans. Chairman
Payne has started a movement to as
certain just how far those who dis
agree with him will go In their OPP
position. Mr.. Payne understands that
the bill In its present shape cannot
command the full Republican vote. and
TO make II strict party measure he
has sent out word 10 those who have
anne ndments 10 Offer that h Is anxious
TO secure their cooperation. To bring
this about there Is to be caucus
within the next few days when 1t Is
hoped that a definite program can be
agreed to which will limit all amend
ments 10 be offered by the majority
members. Mr.. Payne is not concern
ed about amendments the Democrats
may seek to offer. What he is trying
TO bring about is unity OF action on
the part OF the Republicans. This is
no easy task for the reason that some
80 members OF the majority are do
manding that they be permitted to
offer certain amendments It is 10
reach comproise that the caucus Is
to be held. The Democrats will have
to content themselves with moving To
recommit the bill With instructions.
They have no substitute to offer.

HOT TIME SHOW
 LARGELY ATTENDED  Local Amateurs Scored Hit at the Elks Theater Last
 Night in Annual Fun.
THE MUSIC WAS GOOD
Ballads and Coon Songs Were Up.to.
 Date. and Local Gags Made Big Hit.

The fourth annual performance ot the Hot Time Minstrels, which took place at the Elks theater last night under the auspices of the Order of Owls, was a decided success, finan- cially. and theatrically speaking, the theateY was we'll filled with amateur show lovers, and the performers of fered the best minstrel performance yet given by the organization. Many of the gags were up-to-date and talk ing and the numbers, both ecoon songs and ballads, were among the best ever heard on the local stage, by professionals. The musical part of the show was up to the standard of excellence and reflected great credit upon >rofessor Leon Block and Miss Mamie Watkins, now Mrs. Elenor, who had charge of the music and it's arrangement The comedy was in charge of Gurley Phil lips and John Gillespie, and that half of the show was in keeping with the other half
 The end men were Gurley Phillips Meyer Solmson, James Larkin, Edgar Reinberger. Frank Franey and Tom my Williams.
 They got away with some good jokes, which brought forth much laughter. The rendition of the song, Abraham Lincoln Jones' by Gurley Phillips. Come After erABreakfast,' by Edgar Reinberger; Lucy Ella by Meyer Solmson; "Cannibal Love- by frank Franey, and Baby Lamb,' by Tommy Williams, made the end men prominent in the first part and won them many encores. The ballads were beautifully rendered and re- peatedly recalled. They included ten or solos selected by John Gillespie When I Dream in the Gloaming of You,' by Max Ford Faded Rose, by Thad Traweek; "On the Eve of Christmas Day. by Dot Kastor Roll On, Thou Deep and Dark Blue Ocean, by Mont Levey; ''The Garden of Roses,'' by w. A. Elenor, and last but not least, 'Just to Remind You, by the popular Eugene Curtis.

respond. L. Miller, Well-known ten or from the Capital City, responded for him, however singing the num- Der from the balcony most effectively
 The first part was followed by Five Minutes of Foolery' in which Meyer Solmson offered a monologue i'll which many local persons and things were burlesqued to the amuse- ment of the audience.
 The musical specially, Take Me Back to Babyland,' telightfully sung by Mr. Thawick, was one of the fea- lures of the show. He was assisted by Frank Fsrancy. Herbert Wiley, Max Ford and James I.arkin, as boys, and w. ]. Franey, Joe Mooney Tommy Williams and Jesse Williams as girls.
 Mr. Traweek' $ lodle song also scored a hit.
 The musical act of F. L. Plopper in which he played Xylophones, mar tiphones and drums with much clev- erness, was one of the best numbers on the program.
 MT. Plopper recently moved to this city from Minnesota, and is one of the best trap drummers eyer heard here.
 The afterpiece, in which theatri- cal booking office was burlesqued to a realty, was funny and won much applause. Judge E. j. kerwin. the interlocutor of the first part. took the leading role, assisted by w. A. Ele- nor, as stenographer, and Edgar Reinberger and Walter Vogt as of flee boys.
 Professor Leon Block Dot Kastor. the Hot Time quartette, and Eugene Curtis, appeared to fine advantage in the scenes, resulting from the ef.- forts of some theatrical has-beens to secure employment on the vaudeville circuit.
 \ number of telegrams, read by Judge Kerwin during the office scenes, kept the audience in an up- roar throughout the evening. The Sadie Salone' take-off by Gillespie and Phillips, was a ''big scream
 One of the most impressive features of the performance was the excel lence of the chorus work and the renditions of so many up-to-date bal demonstrated the fact that Pine Bluff has much male talent. The show was one that ought to make Al Field and Lew Dockstader blush with envy, but it won't

Willis of Indianapolis, in the cir cult judges chamber last July, ac- cording to an announcement made last night by Judge F. r. Vaughan, attorney for Ellis.
 These petitions, about 50 in num- Der, are being circulated ill every nook and corner of Arkansas, and are being pushed by influential friends and relatives of Ellis and his family. Judge, prosecuting attorneys, lawyers, business men and politicians are alike signing the petitions in great numbers, according to the claim of Ellis attorney.
 The entire student body and facul- ty of the University of Arkansas, of which Ellis is graduate, has joined in petition asking for his liber- ation, the attorney stated.
 J. Wythe Walker. one of the attor- neys for the confined man, will arrive in Little Rock Tuesday with the uni versity petition and number of oth- CTS containing the signatures of practically every property owner and business man in Fayetteville, where the university is located, and where Ellis formerly lived, according td Judge Vaughans claims.
 Wives Visit Two Prisoners.

SERVICE NOT GOOD
 SAYS THE JUDGE Motion to Quash Service on Willis and Kling Sus-
 tained.
PROTECT WITNESSES
Judge Fulk Held That lndianan , Were in the State Upon the Or
 ders of the Court.

Little Rock, Ark, Dec. 20.-ln de- ciding the case of Ruebel X Co .vs. l.. C. Willis and \. K. King this morning Judge Guy Fulk in the sec ond division of the Circuit court, rem dered very comprehensive opinion as to the law ill the matter.
 This suit is identical with that brought against the same party by Davis X Pace, attorneys, who had al- so filed suit and secured service on the witnesses in the same manner.
 The Opinion ill Full.
 The opinion is as follows:
 On the 27th day of July, 1909. \. P, Willis was killed In the city of Little Rock Ark, by w. Y Ellis l.. C, Willis is a brother of the deceased l.. (. Willis and \. R. Kling engaged the services of the plajQtiff herein to prepare the body for burial, and pur chased from the plaintiff, a casket the total bill being $669 which the plaintiff alleged remains unpaid.
 On the 22nd day of November, 1909 the trial of w. Y. Ellis began in the Pulaski county circuit, court. On the 223rd day of November, 1909, the de- fendants herein came to Little Rock from their home in Indianapolis, Ind to attend the trial. They were not sworn as witnesses and were not ex- cluded from the court room during the trial, it having been agreed that all relatives of Ellis and Willis should be excused from the rule. On the 25th day of November, 1909, the plaintiff filed his complaint. a short statement of which is above made. and on the same day Davis & Pace file their complaint. alleging an unpaid attorney fee due from L.. C. Willis and A. R. kling.
 Service on Defendants.
 On the same day service of sum- mons is had upon defendants in each case. About a week later the Ellis trial being still on. defendants were called to take the witness stand by the prosecuting attorney and attor- neFs associated with him in the pros ecution.
 On the 7th day of December, 1909, defendants filed their motion to quash service of summons had upon them.
 The question to be decided is whe- ther or not the service is good.
 The testimony of Roy D, Campbell prosecuting attorney in substance is that he made trip to Indianapolis to confer with the family of Willis and attorneys about the State of Ar kansas vs. w. Y Ellis. That he talk ed with l.. C. Willis, who is the ad- ministrator of N. P. Willis estate, and that there were a number of let ters in his possession which might become important during the trial, as he might be very important witness He was not quite certain whether he expressed a desire to have A. R. King present, but thinks he did.
 The testimony shows that Willis and Kling were present during the two weeks of the trial except the first day and that they testified in rebut- tai.
