Record Breaking Gathering Today to Hear Proceedings in Dill Charged
 With Criminal Assault.

Little Rock, July 24 - No trial in recent times has drawn such "a crowd to the Pull aski County Circuit Court room as appeared there this morning to hear the first days proceed ings in the trial of Earl Dill, who is charged with criminally as saulting Miss Ray Burkhalter in the Knights of Pythias hall in this city early last month. It was noon before the call of the jury
 had been made and the special yenire commenced upon. It is cer- tain on account of the great pub- licity given the assault at the time it was committed that no jury can be selected today and it is hardly like,y evidence can be commenced upon before Tuesday or Wednesday. Sheriff Burt Ro1- erts has been out over the county personally summOning a specia. yenire of 60 farmers from which an effort to secure a jury will be made after the regular panel has been exhausted Sheriff Rob erts questioned every man sum- mOned as to his quallfica tiOns for acting as a juror in the case be- fore summOning him to appear in court this morning. Prosecuting Attorney Roy D. Campbell is as sisted in the trial by Walter II. peTnbertson who was employed by Pine Bluff friends of Miss Burkhalter, Lewis RhOtOn De E. Bradshaw and Tom F.

Once the jury has been charged with the responsi- bility of deciding the guilt or ln-
 nCCence of young Dill. 1t will not take long to try the case as the evidence will be brief. The att torneys for Dill are expected to erdeavor to establish an alibi for their client Miss Burkhalteu' appeared in the court house this morning but did not face the gaze Of the hundreds of curious spec tators by remaining in an ante room with a number of friends She will not appear in the court room until called upon to testify

CLEARING UP
 ARKANSAS RIVER
rodineers Completing Drawing, Showing Every Bar and Banks as They Were
 and as They are

h title Rock, July "A - ,f+er working the following week in the Upper Arkansas clear ng out the snags sufficient to make o channel for boats as far up as Snadra the snag boat Arkansas viii return to Little Rock and tbon be dispatched down the rlv-
 or to work below Pine Bluff. The Arkansas has been working in tine Timer Arkansas for about six weeks and while only the snags which were obstructing the main |channel have been removed the work done has been sufficient to Iet boats through. Government engineers are now completing their drawings of the river which are made from the surveys, show i inp every bar and the banks of | the river, as they were at the / last survey and as they are now ! The drawing is on a large scale | and looks a great deal like a Japanese puzzle with its many ' bars and lines showing the chang ' ing banks. The river about Pine Bluff with it's twists and turns
 on down to Rob Roy is especially |entrancing and resembles a laby- |rinth The Rob Roy bridge with | the draw span standing over a sand bar is shown, also the new ] Idraw span which is to be put in 1 by the Cotton Belt so the bridge will mo longer be a bar to navi- gation. At Pine Bluff a quarter of
 reyetment work is shown, to pre-
 went the further caving of the
 south bank of the river. The 'en-
 gneers who have prepared the
 large map, state the Arkansas a.
 bove Little Rock is a much more
 navigable stream until a few
 miles below Van Buren, than it
 Is between Little Rock and Swan
 Lake down stream. The caving
 banks down stream are charged
 with all the impediments to navi-
 gation while the banks up the
 river are mostly rock and remain
 the same from year to year while
 the lower river is rapidly widen
 ing.
