TO BRING ELLIS
 HERE TODAY Judge J. M. Elliott Issues Habeas Corpus Writ at Request of Counsel.
ARRIVE THIS MORNING
SherfH PhiIpOt Takes Writ to Little Rock and Roberts Is Served
 With It.

"A writ of habeas corpus was iss,1aG here yesterday by Judge John NJ. FL lott in the Jefferson chancery court commanding Sheriff Bert l.. Roberts of Little Rock. to bring w. Y. Ellis tc this city this morning at II o'clock and show cause why he is detaned in custody. Sheriff c. M Philpot, o; this county, was given the writ, ana left immediately for Little Rock to serve it. Ellis will be brought to this city this morning by Sheriff Roberts, and will be accompanied here by Sheriff Philpot, his wife, Mrs. Hattie Bell Ellis, and brother, Oscar Ellis The latter two are in Little Rock looking after Ellis welfare while a prisoner in the Pulaski county jail.
 The application for the writ of ha- beas corpus vas filed late Tuesday afternoon by Judge M A. Austin. of the law firm of Austin & Danaher, who, with Attorney James A. Gray. of Little Rock. have been employee to defend Ellis, who is charged with murder in the first degree. Ellis shot and killed Nathaniel Parker Willis, divorcd husband of Mrs. Ellis, while the latter was in a court room at Lit tie Rock July P, where he had been awarded the custody of little Mary Willis, who has been in her mothers possession for several years
 The filing of the petition for habeas corpus writ in this county is believed to be the first of its kind ever record : ed in the Arkansas courts, where the county on first degree murder charge. is demanded by a court of another district. The reason given by Ellis attorneys for filing the habeas corpus petition in this county was to lessen the expense of a hearing, in the event that one was necessary to Se- cure bond for their client Practically all of the witnesses for the defense live in this city and hearing here would not necessitate railroad fares to Lit tie Rock and other expenses so com mon in cases of this character.
 In the petition the attorneys for FL lis charge that he is being wrongfully deprived of his liberty.
 It was stated last night that attor- neys for Ellis were in communication with Prosecuting Attorney Roy D. Campbell, of Pulaski county, in an ef- fort to arrange a hearing to suit his convenience. It is being urged that the hearing be agreed to for as early date as possible. Unless Campbell agrees to bail for Ellis a hearing will take place before Chancellor Elliott, at which all of the evidence that is expected to create genuine sensation at Ellis trial, will be reviewed.
 In the event the hearing is not ar ranged for one day this week Ellis will be held in the Jefferson county jail in this city. pending the courts order.

Haunted Alaskan Island.

To the south and west of Kodiak,
distant about 100 miles, and forming
one of the Semidi group, is the island
OF Chirikof. the haunted island of
Alaska.
Enshrouded for a great portion OF
the time with almost impenetrable
fog. the Tanna Tribune says, this lone
ly isle is an object of terror to the
natives, who we'll not go near the
island. saying it means certain death
to invade the canny confines, and
there are few men in the far north
who have the temerity TO test the
truth of the many and weird tales told
of this forbidding and barren island
Shipmasters and sailors passing the
place assert that the agonizing cries of
Russian exiles sent there to starve or
die of torture are sometimes heard
on quiet nights, while the clink OF
chains and the sound of blows are
testified to in an affidavit by a white
man who once attempted to remain
there for a week and who lost his
reason.

DON'T STUDY NATIONAL AIRS
American Visitor In Great Britain Re.
turns with His Feelings
Perturbed.

IL WISH" growled a man lately back
from a tour of the British Isles. that
the British bandmasters would take
a course of instruction In what con-
stitutes the American national airs.
Band concerts are the rage all over
England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
During the summer season, probably
as compliment to the hordes OF
Americans who are fiinging away gold
for their benefit. they present daily
what is generally dubbed American
national airs
"The majority OF these bandmasters
think Dixie is the national air, be-
cause they sagely observe IL is the
only one which Americans applaud.
The 'Star-Spangled Banner is dismal
and lugubrious enough under the best
Of circumstances, but to hear the
Scotch bagpipes have a fling at 1t Is
indescribable misery. The man who
wrote the Columbia hymn would not
know his own work as performed In
King Edwards domain, and even the
Kentucky Home and other negro bal
lads get touch between an Irish Jig
and Scotch wall which robs the
American visitor of any pleasure
which he might experience in hearing
songs from home. II may be that
British, Scotch and Irish guests on
this side of the water get as much dis
comfort In hearing Annie Laurie I
hope they do. for II would establish
sort of international musical bal
ance"

Several Entertainments Given ant
Few Serious Franks Reported.

Halloween was very quietly observ-
ed in Hancock Saturday evening, only a
few pranks being reported and these
only OF a trifiing nature. A few gates
were removed, and loose articles left

There was also the customary mark
ing up of store windows with soap, so
that a general window cleaning was in
order on Quincy street this morning.
Several Halloween parties were
given by the residents at their homes
and there was also a public entertain
ment given at the Methodist church
parlors by the members of the Ep-
worth league. The place was orna-
mented with pumpkin jack o'lanterns
entertainment features comprised for
tune telling. bobbing for apples, lun-
cheon and other diversions.
At the public schools Halloween was
observed Friday afternoon with pro-
grams in several Of the rooms and Hal
lowe'en games arranged for the
youngsters.
A somewhat amusing Halloween
incident occurred at the Franklin To-
cation, where a deputy sheriff's gate
was removed by boys while he was
engaged in watching some of the min
ing company's property. Frank Bly,
the was on duty as deputy and did not
think that anyone would modest his
premises, so he was greatly astonish-
ed on returning homo after long
vigil TO find that both his gates had
vanished. He regarded 1t as a pretty
good joke on himself.
