Little Rock, January 2o.- Good road enthusiasts from all sections of the state are today gathering in Little Rock to be on hand for the opening session of the Arloa'nsaL Good Roads As >,ociation which will be held to- morrow morning in the conven- tion hall of the Hotel Marion On account of the activity in road building in all sections during the past year, and the many miles of good roads laid out for the coming year, the meeting prom iseS to be the greatest ever held in Arkansas At least 200 dele gates are expected, of which nearly 100 are already in the city. The convicts on the road the pet theory of Governor Don aghey will be one of the chief topics of discussion and it is probable the association will pass a resolution asking the leg islature to make this disposition of the surplus convicts Judge Jas.

holds resolution contains clause similar to that which has made the Oklahoma measure practically imperative so far as the referendum feature is con- cerned. The resolution offered by Senator Arnold provides that the referendum may be ordered eith CT by petition signed by five per cent of the legal voters or by the legislative assembly, except as to laws necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace health or safety.
 The Oklahoma constitution con tains. an identical provision and as a result it is possible for the General Assembly to prevent the ordering of referendum on any law by simply attaching an em- ergency clause there. Whether or not this was the motive which actuated the General Assembly of that state it is a fact that more than three-fourths of the laws passed at the first session year ago contained such an emergency clause.-Little Rock Gazette

THE LEGISLATURE.

Little Rock, January 25.- Two weeks the House and Sen ate have put in stirring things up to pass upon them defina tely this week and while the first two weeks were decidedly productive the third one promises to bear the most fruit, as many of the bills which have been read twice will be passed or defeated and sent on to the Governor for final action if passed upon favorably by both branches of the General Assembly The bill discharging the Capitol Commission and an- nuling the Caldwell & Drake con- tract is sure of passage in the Senate. It is thought the Winn bill making it a misdemeanor for a railroad agent to charge over two cents per mile for fare, the bank guaranty act, and the semi monthly pay day bills will be act ed on unfavorably by the com
 mittees, which will mean certain death to the measures. The night rider bill is equally as certain of passage during the week The Senate will probably pass this bill appropriating S5OOOO for the purpose of fighting the rail
 roads either this afternoon or tomorrow morning. The bill providing for a pardon;ng board will also probably pass :a

Death of Mrs, Hubbard

Mrs. Margaret Hubbard, wife of John
NJ. Hubbard, an old-time resident of
Denver, passed into the Great Beyond
last Thursday after undergoing a seri-
Gus operation for cancer. Heart failure
was the cause of death. Perhaps no one
woman in Denver has done SO much for
the sick and helpless as did Mrs. Hub
bard i'm the years she gave to charity.
Having no children of her own, she de-
voted what time she could spare TO the
orphans and the distressed, doing good
by stealth and blushing to find il fame.
The afflicted have lost a good friend
in the death of Mrs. Hubbard, and
many have been parted from a true
friend.
Mrs. Hubbard walked to Mercy hos
pital early last week when she learned
that she must be operated upon, and
was cheerful to a degree which robbed
her illness of the dread which would
naturally have attached TO it On Thurs
day she went under the knife and, after
recovering from the anaesthetic, her
heart action Jagged and she closed her
eyes in the last long sleep before her
husband had an opportunity to reach
her bedside.
Last year Mrs. Hubbard was presi-
dent of the Good Shepherd Aid society.
and in other charitable organizations
she held office. She was the permanent
resolutions committee for practically
every church society, being of a poetic
temperament. and couching in truly
beautiful language the sentiments of
these societies for their deceased mem
bers. In the Woman's club of Denver
she was assistant treasurer. and prior
TO assuming that office was assistant
corresponding secretary. Higher Of
fices were laid at her feet times with
out number. but she chose TO remain in
the background. The only time she
permitted her name to be prominently
mentioned was when il would help the
cause of the distressed or unhappy.
Then she was ever ready to forge to the
front.
Mrs. Hubbard was a New Enslander.
whose childhood home was at Fail Riv-
er, Mass. A brother, David f. Lingane.
lives at East Orange, N. ]. The funeral
WIS held from the church Of the Sacred
Heart Wednesday morning, members of

several hundred attending Interment
