So the Humane Society has decid-

and usefulness to human beings, in
accordance with the suggestion in

there is work to do. If we had to
choose between protection to dumb
beasts and children we would all
choose the children Since we can
protect both, but all means let us dc

The committee which is to report
to get together before long, if it is to
secure estimates and make a practi-
cal report to the Legislature of 1910.
The need of such an enlargement is
growing every year. There are more
state officers needing rooms and
practically all the room in the build
ing is now utilized. There is not
space enough in the annex for the
work of the library and to make a
proper display of the collections of
the Historical Society the need of
committee rooms is still more pres
sing There is not single real COM
mittee room in the building, no room
where q committee can make it's
headquarters, store it's papers and be
secure from interruption. The cloak
rooif>is not fit place for committees.

becomes the heavier grows the hat IN
3ian cashmere fringe and every kind f
furry material ornaments the brims of
he new turbans, which sink so low
Ever the face that the features are eff

Lace butterflies are poised on shapes

der the hat brims are all the craze, and
these frill trimmings attain huge pro-

The combination OF collarless bodices
and the love OF q touch of black velvet
wherever it can be put is no doubt ac-
eountable for the tentative return to
favor of the line of narrow black vel
vet ribbon round the throat fastened
1T the back with an old fashioned little
clasp OF strass and enamel. There
have been constant returns to this
fashion, which proves how becoming it
must be. Tt reigned in the eighteenth
century, where one sees 1t in the por-
traits of Marie Antoinette and Nine, de
Pompadour as well as in the portraits
Of Reynolds. Gainsborougn and Hopp-

ircSent Manager Will Probably Con- tinue in That Capacit.-To
 Make Repairs.

M. E. Bloom, an experienced thea tflcai manager and for many years treasurer of the ElEs Theater here. has leased the playhouse for a term t years. The new lease will Co in- to effect on August |, when the pres ent lease held by C. F. Philpot expires Mr. Philpot will probably continue as manager and will continue his vaudeville attractions there durin the summer months. The lease was executed by F. G. Bridges. Sam B. Russell and II. Riley, trustees of the Fine Bluff Lodge of Elks, No. 249 To the trustees is left the matter of leasing the playhouse. which is in the Elks home building
 The local management will con- tinue to book the Klaw and Erlanger attractions, having already arranged 2 large list of bookings for the conl- ing theatrical season. Under the management of c. E. PEilpot tho Flks Theater has offered local theater Z.o- CTS the finest line of attractions tho past season ever presented here and because of his success in handling the affairs of the theater Mr. Philpot will be urged to continue in the capa- city of manager by the new lessee.
 On August 1, when Mr. Bloom as cho let a contract for the complete reno vation of the theater. 1t is planned to replace the floor in the theater it its entirety and install a new and up to date heating plant. New chairs are also to be placed, where they are needed, and other improvements made on the furnishings. The boxes are .,l. so to be redressed. The interior and exterior of the house are to be ia. painted and decorated. The Elks Theater was built only few years ago and is one of the most attra.;iye and modern playhouses in the south west.

Bluff as there is no opposition in .h $ city. Manager Philpot has always been loyal to Klaw and Erlanger and says he will continue to do so no n.at- ter what comes up. The Kempuer Theater, which will be opened ai Li,- tie Rock September 1, has been leased to Weiss and Ottenheimer for a ten year term, has brought that city ,-t the fight in a rather interesting way the fight in a rather intere .;r.' light.

CONFESSION IN
 MURDER CASE Leroy Pope, Brother of Dead Woman's Husband, Tells Story of Recent Crime.
WOMAN KILLED HER
Assassinated Jennie Eva Pope as She Walked Along Country Road
 A Good Capture.

Leroy Pope, brother of Rufus Pope. d negro employe of the Sawyer and Austin Lumber Company, whose wife, Jennie Eva Pope, was brutallv mur- dered while walking along a country road near Jim Aliens place, two miles southwest of this city, May ?, was arrested yesterday by Constable frank Stewart and Deputy Constable W. \. Branson. Shortly after his arrest Pope confessed to knowledge of the affair and implicated Pearl Johnson, young negress, who was soon arrested and jailed. Both are charged with murder.
 Pope was found at work at the Sawyer and Austin camp, twenty-nine miles west of Pine Bluff. The John- son woman was arrested at her home near the scene of the crime. The officers have been unable to unravel the affair, as there seemed to have been no motive other than jealousy for the crime. It is believed that ehe Johnson woman was in love with Ru- fus Pope, husband of the murdered woman, and that she killed her to get her out of the way.
 Leroy Pope says he got the gun for the Johnson woman and they went to the woods near her home and when she came along the Johnson woman fired a load of shot into the back of : the Pope woman's head. Pope says he helped the Johnson woman drag the body into the woods and that the woman covered it with leaves to hide the crime. He says he did not think the Johnson woman was in earnest when she asked him to get her the gun, stating that she wanted to kill his brothers wife. According to Le- roy Pope the murdered woman never saw her assailant He and the John son woman secreted themselves be- ,, hind some trees and when the Pope woman came along, Pope says, the Johnson woman fired the contents of , the gun into her head.
