DEQUEEN ROBBER
 NOTED DESPERADO
Criminal Captured at Kansas City Where He Went For Medical Treatment t-W Wounded By De-
 Queen Officers.

De Queen, April 6. The Kan sas City Star tells of the arrest ia Wichita, Kansas of Stray" Waddell, a noted desperado who was wounded by Officers Wig gins and Ogletree of this place in pistol duel following Waddell's attempt to rob the Kansas City Southern station at Do Queen a few weeks ago.
 The officers knew they had wounded the criminal, as a trail of blood led to one of the tents of the Nibro Carnival Company, but the fellow managed to escape de- spite his wounds.
 The dispatch 10 the Star says:
 "The Wichita officers found Waddell living in roomi n 2 house while recovering from wound he received in Arkar sas two weeks ago. He was arrested in Arkansas and, in making his escape, was shot through one foot. He came 10 Wichita last Thurs day and has been iu hiding here  since that time. A woman gave the officers a clue to Wsddell's hiding place when she went to local drug store 10 purchase pair of crutches and llnimeut. Detec- tives followed her home and made the arrest.
 "The Muskogee officers arrest ed Waddell after the robbery of the Ford bank, which netted the robbers S3, 800. The robbers went from Kingman, Kas., to Ford in a motor car. The car was rented from J. o. Bear of Kingman, who died in Kansas City last week. Waddell was arraigned at Musko- gee, March 2, on charge oI com plicity in the Ford robbery. While twelve deputies were guard. ing him in the court room, he jumped through second story window and m made his escape. The Wichita police say that Waddell has served sentences in the Joliet, Ill.,, and Jefferson City peniten- tiaries."
 A reward of S400 for Waddell's capture is outstanding, and the local officers contemplate claim ing a portion, as they undoubted- ly assisted in the capture by wounding the man, though they were ignorant of the identity of the famous desperado at tho time.

LAUDED BY HUMANS
COL. ROOSEVELT REFERRED TO IN FLATTERlNe TERMS BY
 MAYOR OF THE CITY.
PARTY CHEERED AT THE DEPOT
Large Crowd Gathered About the Train and Took Part in Enthusiastic Dem onstratIon Ex-President Spoke from Rear Platform.

Rome, April S.-The series of events connected with the cancellation of Mir. koosevelts audience with the pope and later his repudiation of the de. nunclatory statement issued by Pastor Tipple of the Methodist church of Rome, added interest to the dinner given in Mir. Roosevelt's honor in the great hall of the historic Capitoline Palace by the municipal authorities, over which Mayor Nathan presided. No reference, however, either directly or indirectly was made to this subject
 The guests included Premier Luz zati, Signor Ferrero, under secretary of the foreign office; Signor Ferrari, gand master of the Free Mason order and Ambassador Leishman. Mayor Nathan, in proposing the health of the ex-president, referred to him as "one whose character and work had an effect upon the civil progress of hu manity"
 Mayor Nathan's Talk.
 After mentioning Washington and Lincoln, as respectively the founder and consolidation of the republic, he characterized MT. Roosevelt as a "a purifier" saying that he had hunted fiercer beasts than during his recent trip in Africa
 Men of his caliber," said the mayor, "are beyond the limits of the country. They belong by right to civilization "
 He concluded with an apostrophe to MT. Roosevelt as the fighting philos. opher,' who is preaching the word of purity, goodness and duty 10 his people, and he compared the ex-presi. dent to Marcus Aurelius.
 MT Roosevelt, in replying. declared that no civilized man could come to Rome without feeling that he was wis. iting civilization. After expressing deep appreciation for the hospitality extended to him here, he spoke oi political life. which he said was not So much matter of genius as of the practical application of the very or. dinary qualities of courage, hinesty and common sense, and the rarest of these, he added, is common sense.
 Cheers for the Party.
 The ex-president and Mrs. Roosevelt left for Spezia at 11:45. Among those who bade them farewell at the station were Count Tozzoni, master of cere monies in the royal household, who represented the king; Mayor Nathan and other civic authorities and am bassador Leishman. Several hundred persons gathered around the train and took part in an enthusiastic demon stration. The distinguished American was warmly cheered and there were many cries of Long live Roosevelt"
 Mir. Roosevelt was obliged to come out on the platform of the special car which had been put at his disposal by the government, and express his thanks to the people of Rome for their generous and unforgetable hospitality, which called forth a new demonstra tion that continued as the train moved away.

Added to the assemblage, there was large attendance of laymen. who sought ,hls opportunity of showing their symptahy with the movement for progression in Southern education. The main floor of the theater was complete ly filled and there was a good sprinkling of spectators in the galleries.
 Much Enthusiasm Is Displayed.

TEARING EARTHWARD
Halley's Comet Faintly Visible Coming This Way at Speed of 1870 Miles a
 nute-Big Show May l7.

II you are up before sunrise these mornings and will look low Ia the east, you will see the cur tain raiser for the greatest celes- tIal show staged iu the heavens since 1835-Halley's comet.
 Since September Il last year, when Wolf of HeIdelburg first glimpsed the return ot Halley's comet to these parts, that fiery wanderer has travelled more than 300 million miles, drawing nearer and nearer. It is now about l3O million miles distant. May IF, vhen il will reach the nearest point to the earth, the comets head will be l2 million miles dis tant, while it's huge tail, stretch ing millions of miles across the heavens, will be close enough to lash our earth's sides with its starry showers.
 Exceeds tbe Speed Limit.
 The comets speed varies as it approaches the earth. Yesterday it's schedule was 1,670 miles a minute, and 1t was reported lon time" at every station. April 19, when it reaches a good smooth piece of sky with down grade, the heavenly speeder will throw in the last clutch and hit it off at the rate of ,S7S miles minute -the fastest time it will make this trip.
 While it's nearest approach May r IS expected to be accompanied by a brilliant shower ot meteor ties that will descend into the earth's atmosphere like fire pop corn out of a jiant poper with the lid off, the display probably will not equal that seen by our grand fathers back in 1885, when the comet came within 6 million miles of earth-near enough to scare the chickens off the roost aud and drive the dog under the perch. After passing across the face of the sun, May Is, the comet will appear in the evening sky, slow ly rising in the west as 1t steams away into space. In August 1t again will be faintly visible in the morning sky, going in the general direction of Jupiter, where it is due to put on show in May, 1911.
 Back Again In 1885.
 The big sky stroller won't be back on this circuit again until l 1oS5. This information is posi- tive. Moreover, this is the orig iual company and plays Earth Mars, Venus, Jupiter and the Sun, with no open dates and nc road companies. 4 1 c
