RHODES EXAMINATIONS.
WERE HELD AT LITTLE ROCK YESTERDAY-ONLY FOUR
 CANDIDATES.

President Stonewall Anderson re- turned last night from Little Rock, where he with President John N. Till man of the University of Arkansas, held the annual examinations for the Cecil Rhodes scholarship from Arkan- sas. Only four candidates were pres ent to take the examination, Ashley P. Boles, J. L. Shipley and J. H. Atkin- son of the University of Arkansas, and Claud D. Nelson of Hendrix col lege The examinations were held in mathematics, Latin and Greek.
 President Anderson rather regrets the fact that so few of those qualified to take the examinations apply at the annual examination time. Last year the number was small, although this year there are perhaps fewer contest ants than on any previous occasion.

NEGROES HELD
 TO GRAND JURY

After an examining trial before Jus tice of the Peace w. B. Wilson, which lasted into last night, Ed Jones and Morris Arnold were held to the grand jury on a charge of grand larceny, the alleged offense being the theft of bale of cotton from J. P. Balmat, and their bonds were fixed at $500 each. Both of the negroes today made their bonds.
 Jim Garrett, who had already been bound over on the same charge, was the principal witness for the state at the examining trial. Garrett admit ted he was one of the party who stole the cotton and declared that his only companions were Jones and Arnold The defendants introduced evidence to establish an alibi, but the court held that Garrett's testimony and circum- stantial proof offered by the state was sufficient to warrant their being held to the grand jury.

HIGH SCHOOL IS DEFEATED
HENDRIX THIRD TEAM TAKES GAME YESTERDAY BY
 SCORE OF 15 TO o.

The third football team of Hendrix college defeated the Conway high school lads yesterday afternoon by the score of 15 to 0. All the scores were made in the first half, Hartop of Hen drix circling the ends for two touch downs and Stubbs, intercepting for ward pass from high school, ran 50 yards for a touchdown. The high school boys fought gamely but were unable to score. Wilson, Thornton and Harton were the stars for the high school, while Smith, Charles, Stubbs, Harton and Lee put up some classy playing for Hendrix. The high school lost their only chance to score when they had the ball on HendriX's 1O-yard line, but Hendrix held them for downs and they were unable to reach the goal. The lineup:

BANQUET

Judge A. Davidson returned the
latter part of last week from Great
Falls where he had been to take part
in the annual banquet given by the
Caledonian club of that city. The
club is composed Of only genuine
Scots and the Judge reports one of
the most enjoyable times of his life.
The hall was tastily decorated in the
Scottish colors and none but old fash
ioned Scot dances danced and during
the entire evening no dance was re-
peated. The dancing gave way at in
tervals to violin solos and duets and
to Scottish songs and recitations.
When the clock tolled midnight the
guests sat down to as sumptuOus a
banquet as was ever set before liking,
prince or potentate," many favorite
dishes of their native land being par
taken of. B. NJ. Burrell, of Stockett,

admirably and proved himself past

In his annual report Secretary of
the Interior Ballinger states that
in Montana there are 9,295,360
acres of land which have been with
drawn from coal entry pending ex-
animation and classification; 1882
$50 acres withdrawn from all entry
pending classification, on which the
field work has been completed, and
S,O75, 300 acres classified and re-
stored.
The Secretary states that 27,954-
$40 acres of Montana land has been
placed under the $50 acre homestead
law passed at the last session of con-.
gress. The investment in the rec
lamation fund to date has amounted
to $50, ,661 $40 and out of this sum
$45, ,757,91S has been invested in
reclamation work. For the coming
year Mr.. Ballinger has allotted the
sum of SIS ,52S, ,O5O for the continual
ton of the work, of which the fol-
lowing sums will be expended in
Montana:
Milk River, S1O3,O 900; Huntley,
$40, 900; Sun River, $4,000; St. Ma
ry, $4,000; and Lower Yellowstone,
$4,000.
The department has been unfort-
unate, he says, in the selection OF
some projects, as regards water sup
ply, soil and climatic conditions, and
some projects having no public lands
have been undertaken by the gov
ernment which should have been
handled by private enterprise. He
disapproves of irrigation by the gov
ernment by pumping with steam
plants at high lifts, as the burden of
operation and maintenance is usually
too great for the average farmer, al

Enterprise will not venture All opin-
ion, at present. However, we De-
lieve, that owing to the numerous
difficulties which the reclamation
service and the interior department
have constantly been hampered with
and as these difficulties still exist, It
would be wise plan to turn the
work over to the people. AS from
past experiences the work would be
carried on faster and at the end the
cost of the project would be less. so
far as is evident, and what is known
of Mr.. Hills plans, the people are
with him and believe that is the
only solution to speedy completion
of the great project.
