SHOWS
NOT TAXABLE

Chancellor J. G.. Wallace has
Just rendered a decision in the
Pope chancery court, in which he
holds that moving picture shows
are not subject to tax by the
county under ,he present laws.
The county court had fixed the
license for this privilege at 500 a
year. and Butler & Howell OF
Russellville had resisted the pay
ment of the tax. The chancellor
held that the shows, being of a
moral and educational nature, and
not comique or variety shows, are
not subject to the tax.
The decision is of considerable
interest here. where an exactly
similar case is pending in..chancery
court. The Faulkner county
court has fixed the tax at the same
figure as that in Pope county, 500
per year, the collection of which
was resisted by w. N. Owen of the
Electric Theatre, who secured a
temporary injunction against the
county officers interfering with his
show. Unless the county court
expects to take an appeal to the
supreme court the tax in this coun-
ty will probably be abolished and
the proceedings of Mr.. Owen drop
ped. as the same decision would OF
course be expected if the case
should be heard before Judge
Wallace in the Faulkner chancery
court.

the Conway public school was de-
livered by Rev. w. J. Mccoy Of
Martin, Tenn, yesterday morning
to a congregation which crowded
the Methodist church in this city
to its fullest capacity. Rev. Nc
Coy's subject was christian Ed
ucation, and for over an hour
held the close attention OF his
hearers. Beautiful music for the
occasion was rendered by the pub
lie school choir, assisted by local
singers, and the church was beau
tifully decorated for the occasion.
The dedicatory exercises of the
new public school building will be
had on Thursday afternoon at 3
o clock. 1t was at first intended
to hold these exercises Wednesday
night, but Gov. Donaghey, who
is a member of the local school
board, found it impossible to ac-
cept the invitation to speak at that
time and the program was post
poned. Besides the governor, ad-
dresses will be delivered by State
Superintendent Geo. B. Cook and
Mrs. T. P. Murray, president of
the State School Improvement AS
sociation. The pupils will be rep
resented by Edward Heiligers,
who will deliver the welcome ad-
dress.
A concert will be given Thurs

ercises will take place Friday, in

BOOKS ARE INVESTIGATED
Committee From House Makes Report on
Confederate Home.

Little Rock, May Especial.
Late yesterday afternoon the
committee from the house delegat-
ed to inspect the books of the Con-
federate Home made its report.
The report is sighned by Martin,
McCracken and Ellis, and after
stating the committee was appoint
ed so late 1t had little time to make
a complete investigation, yet it
found the Books had been losely
kept, and there could be graft if
those handling the funds so desir-
ed. The committee stated further
it was not satisfied that graft had
not been practiced, as it had found
the $4,000 appropriated for repairs
at the Home to have been spent
and there was little on the place to
account ior it. The stock was
also found 20 be in poor condition,
though the iced bills were enor-
nous. The committee suggested
that the new board in charge
of the Home make a more thor
ough investigation and make its
report to the next General AS
sembly.

Oldham Bill Recommended.

Little Rock, May II. = After
another skyrocket session yester-
day the house agreed in a COM
mittee of the whole to pass the
Oldham bill providing an emergen-
cy fund of SI75, 900 from which to
make settlement with Caldwell
& Drake according to the finding
Of the board OF arbitration. The
fight on this measure was rousing
one, due to a splitting in the DON
aghey forces through his fearless
ness in appointing the men he
thought fit on the St. Francis
levee board. Members in the
senate who were disappointed in
their york to secure the appoint
ments according to their dictation
took hand in attempting to de-
feat it in the house. The fight
in the house was led by Schafer,
Little, Glover and others
who favored other admin istration
bills. On the other hand DuLaney
Heartsill. Martin, Winn, Dunaway
and others who opposed the Old
ham state capitol bill and also the
Patterson bill have led the fight
Tor its passage. The bill was ad-
opted by the committee OF the
whole, al to SO. Hurst led the
fight for the bill and defended the
thrnsts at the governor.
The senate received message
from Secretary Ludwig asking h wv
he should answer a communication
from J. G.. Adams, the prohibition
speaker, asking the use OF the
state house grounds for speech
making. The house and senate
united in allowing him the use Of
both houses when not in use for
legislative purposes.
The house passed the Confed
crate home appropriation bill and
killed the second reform school
bill.

WOULD FORM
ALL STAR TEAM

To form an all-star Arkansas
collegiate base oall team for
the purpose OF making tour
through the south and to the
Atlantic coast during the sum
mer, is a plan devised by Coach J.
S. Leonard and Prot. Thomas
Staples of Hendrix College,
which has every prospect of being
carried into execution. The team
is to be selected from the six insti-
tutions which are participating in
an intercollegiate series in this
state during the present season,
the individual records made by the
various players being used as the
principal basis for their selection.
No player will be eligible ON the
team who is not a bona fde student
and player in his college. An ex
pert coach from outside the state
will be secured, and after giving
the team a week or ten days prac-
tice, will accompany them on the
trip. A financial manager will
also accompany the combination to
arrange the details OF the games.
The players will receive no COM
pensation, except the two months
trip, which will be valuable one
from every standpoint, and small
expense allowance, the purpose of
the plan being to provide an op-
portunity for the best college play
ers to work out during the summer
under skilled coach and at the
same time enjoy an inexpensive
vacation trip. Nearly all of the
colleges have already signihed
their willingness to enter into the
scheme, and a meeting will be
held at Little Rock tomorrow night
at which the details OF the trip will
be arranged.
