 Rutherford Goes to Capital.
 John r. Rutherford, uncle Of Ellis, hurried to Little Rock last night to aid his nephew in any way possible. He did not wait for the details, but hurried to the capital on the first train. AIr.

 Mrs. Ellis in Hospital.
 It was stated last night that Mrs. Ellis sobbed ptfuIly when she was informed yesterday morning by Ellis that he would have to go to Little Rock to resist the order of the court to surrender Little Mary to Willis for ten days. She had thought that the trouble was all over with Willis, after so many legal battles in which Willis had never accomplished any thing other than to cause her much i worry and expense. Her condition is not at all favorable, it is reported and because of this fact the news of the tragedy is being kept from her.
 Ellis Popular Here.
 No young man is more popular with Pine Bluffians and it's business men especially than Will Ellis. He is a man of unusual refinement and quiet in manners and action. He is an eX- pert electrician and a valuable at tache of the Transit company. His friends are legion here, and all de- clare that they will stand by him in an effort to bring about his acquittal.

LONG DISTANCE
RAGING on CARD
At VELOORONE
All the Events Are Long
Except the Half-miIe
Sprint.

Long distance racing has served more
than anything else to make night cycle
meets popular in this city. and the
card for the Velodrome carnival to-
morrow night consists largely OF dis
tance contests. Beginning with a bis
ten-mile professional open race, the
longest OF the lot, and which will carry
all the sta riders. including Kramer.
Clarke, Fogler, Fem, the Bedeils. AM
derson, Krebs and n galaxy Of others,
it continues through a match race of
unusual length. an Australian pursuit,
an unknown distance affair and winds
up with a half-mile handicap. The only
short event OF the night.
Another reature is the return TO che
system OF lap prizes IN the ten-mile opel
race. and as all the professional con-
tingent In this section will compete. there
will be a great scramble Lap prize con-
tests were always popular, as It makes The
pace hot because Oh the tussles Tor the
lap. Furthermore, II affords d cnance for
everybody to get some OF the prizes and
doesn't leave all the money TO those VINO
finish one, two, three in the final sprint.
Kramer or Clarke is looked upon as the
most likely winner of this event, though
Fogler, Fem, Root or the Bedelis have a
good chance.
The match race, being a little lit be-
tween Fem and Clarke, will afford some
rare sport. 1t is to settle a little grudge
they have been nursing, and it should be
a corker. There Will be a paeemaker in
the race. and the first heat will be at two
miles, the second at a mile, while the
third, il necessary, will be decided by the
toss of o coin.
teur champion, will claim attention with
Percy Lawrence. Jake Magin and the
other star amateurs in the Australian
pursuit and the unknown distance races.
Both these contests are such as will try
the ability of the riders, and each should
prove interesting affairs.
