Heber Case Affirmed.

A case of much interest to Con- way people was affirmed in the supreme court yesterday, when the case of Max Frauenthal against the town of Heber was affirmed. The controversy was over the pos session of the Sugar Loaf park where all the springs of the resort are located. It was originally the property of MT. Frauenthal but the town claimed it had become public property, and this contention was sustained in both courts. Justice Samuel Frauenthal is relative of Max Frauenthal, who lost the case, and did not participate ill the decision of the court.

TWO FELONY CASES TRIED
Jury Returns Verdict of Ac-
 quittal in Each Case.
Charge of Perjury-Criminal Docket Nearly Exhausted.

The acquittal of two of the three persons indicated for felonies and the dismissal of the case aga inst the other clears the docket of the Faulkner circuit court of all felony cases, and the few remaining mis demeanor cases will probably b disposed of by tomorrow noon.
 The jury in the case of F.. C. Zugelder late yesterday afternoon returned verdict of not guilty. Zugelder was charged with having sold to s. G. Smith a bale of cot ton subject to lien held by J. A. Mode. The defendant admitted the sale of cotton, but denied that is was sold with the intent to de- fraud his creditor. Another simi lar case against him was continued until the next term of court.
 The court this morning took up the trial of Robert Chambers, in- dicted for perjury, and after the state had presented its case, the court instructed the jury to return a verdict finding the defendant not guilty. Chambers was alleged to have sworn falsely in testifying be- fore the grand jury as to the sale of some liquor. It was charged that he furnished evidence before the grand jury discriminating some parties of such a sale and after wards testified in open court that he had been hired to make such statement to the grand jury. The state, however, failed to prove that the statement Chambers was al legged to have made was m m4terial evidence.
 Other proceedings of the court were:

LIBEL SUIT
 IS ON TRIAL

Little Rock. July I3.-Both sides expressed themselves as be- ing ready for the trial of the S5o,- : GOO damage suit of 0. c. Ludwig, secretary of state, against the Western Methodist, A. C. Millar, James A. Anderson and the other proprietors of the paper when the case came up ill the court of Judge Guy Fulk this morning. Secretary Ludwig has completed his dapo- sitions in answer to the charge of the church paper and its editors that the secretary of state and Governor Pindall connived together to app-int election commissioners in certain counties which would favor the liquor men. He took the dispositions of prominent men in the counties which were emu merated by the defendants when forced to specify.
 The suit promises to be one of tue most sensational ever tried in Little Rock. The church paper about the time of the last state election charged Governor Pindall and secretary of state Ludwig, who constituted majority of the state board of election commissioners, with conniving to appoint county election boards which would favor the liquor interest. The paper was so bitter in its fight against the state officials that Secretary Ludwig filed a S5o,ooo damage suit. The defense claims it will spring a number of sensations of Arkansas politics, and the plaintiff says he will be able to spring some himself. The last obstacle in the

SCHOOL CENSUS
 SHOWS GAIN

Supt. s. $. Waters, who is makss ing the enumeration of children of school age in the Conway district, has almost completed his work <, lacking the enumeration of only d few fami ies among the negroes. According to Prof Waters census there are goo white children be- tween the ages ot 6 and 2I in the district, and he estimates the negro children will number .}2o, making total of ,28o in the district This is a gain of Io2 over last year, or practically TO per cent, and the same ratio of gain was shown last year. over the preceding year. As was also the case last year, the in crease is confined wholly to the white children, tue populaton last year being, whites, 852, negroes, 323. In 1907 the school populas ton totaled I,o75, of which 779 were whites and 2o6 negroes.
 Prof. Waters believes the school census indicates total population of at least 4,ooo and probably 4 500 in the city of Conway. He says that not more than 100 of the school children enumerated in the district, which is somewhat larger than the city, live outside the city limits. His final report to the county examiner will be made the first of next week.
