wife has remained at the home of her
parents.

METHODIST COMMENDS
PROF. W. T. HOGAN

Prof. w. E. Hogan of Hendrix col
lege has been made assistant secretary
of education and will have immediate
cl e.rge of all the details of the educa-
tion Office at Nashville This appoint
ment comes about simply because DR..
Anderson, the secretary, knew exactly
where to find his man. Prof. Hogan is
the senior professor, in point of con-
tinuous service, in Hendrix college;
yet he is young man, just enter
ing his prime. He is sturdy, solid and
practical, with immense capacity for
work, silent and judicious man, who
knows the technique of educational
work. His going from Hendrix will
excite universal regret The chair of
mathematics may be filled, but Prof.
Hogan's place in the institution in it's
larger aspects it will not be so easy to
fill. The Western Methodist would
commend him to our friends at Nash
vile, and to the whole church as a
frst-class gentleman every way and a
Christian of exalted character

MT, VERNON THE Scene OF
ANOTHER CRIMINAL ASSAULT

down from a position halfway up
the chimney.
Cooler heads prevailed over those
who urged an immediate lynching, and
members of the posse who favored al
lowing the law to take it's course final
iy succeeded in bringing the boy back
to the town near which his crime was
committed.
Harris was at once arraigned before
Justice of the Peace J. W. Clanton,
who ordered him held to await the ac-
ton Of the grand jury, under charge
of assault with intent to commit rape.
The prisoner was brought to Conway
this afternoon and committed to jail.
He was kept under a strong guard
at Mt. Vernon last night by officers
who feared to risk a mob's violence
should they start on the trip to Con-
way with him yesterday.
Scratched and bruised and extreme
ly nervous as a result of her harrow
ing experience, Miss Henry was hard
" able to describe the assault at the
examining trial yesterday. She was
positive. however, of both the identity
and the purpose of her alleged assai-
liant.
Harris admits having an encounter
with the girl, but declares they were
only engaged IN fight as result OF
disagreement between them.
Lee Harris bears an unenvlable rep
utation in his neighborhood, where ne
is said to be regarded as a degenerate.
On July 10, 1907, when he was only
Is years of age, he is alleged to have
committed a criminal assault upon a
daughter of F. p. Hawk, and a few
days later was indicted by the grand
Jury for rape. On account OF his eX-
treme youth, the court permitted HIM
to enter a plea of guilty to assault
with intent to commit the crime, and
he was sentenced to serve seven years
in the penitentiary. Later he was
transferred to the reform school, from
which he was pardoned last spring.

LITTLE ROCK BOY
SHOT BY MUSICIAN
NOT FATALLY WOUNDED
SHOEMAKER FIRED WHEN HE
SAW OLIPHINT ADVANC-
ING ON HIM

Little Rock, July 29.-Gardner Oil
phint, court stenographer and law
yer and member of well known Lit
tie Rock family, was shot and serious
ly wounded by L. F. Shoemaker, mu
sican, about II 80 last night in front
of the Lyric moving picture theater on
Main street. The shooting followed
an argument between the two men, in
which Oliphint is alleged to have
drawn a long knife and to have told
Shoemaker that he would kill him be-
fore tomorrow night" The ill-feeling
between the two men arose over
young woman.
Oliphint jumped from a Fifteenth
street car going south, just as it was
passing the theater. He carried a
travelling bag and as he swung from
the car he opened the bag and took
out a revolver. Shoemaker was stand
ing to one side of the entrance to the
theater talking with group of men
employed there. The group saw Oil
phint advancing with the pistol in his
hand. and each one dived for place
of safety, except Shoemaker, who
moved toward the middle of the en-
trance, drew his pistol and fired once.
At the shot Oliphint pitched for
ward on his face, his hand tightly
clenching the pistol. Shoemaker NOV
ed over to a piano in the lobby of the
theater and laid his revolver upon it,
then moved back to the front and re-
mained there until placed under ar
rest by an officer who had been on the
same car with Oliphint and who had
jumped off when the shot was fired.
Oliphint was unable to make a state
ment, although he retained conscious
ness. The bullet struck at the base
of his nose, passed under an eye, un-
der his brain and lodged in the head.
He was rushed to st. Vincent's mfr
mary, where it was stated at an early
hours this morning that he was rest
ing easy. Physicians attending Oil
phint do not think the wound neces-
sarily fatal.

aunt. who is Lee Harris mother, and
left late in the afternoon to return to
her home, one-half mile distant.
Harris, who had seen her at his
mothers home, is said to have left a
few minutes before the girl and inter
cepted her as she was passing through
the woods. Unprotected and too far
away from house for her screams to
be heard, the girl, according to her
story, fought fiercely to save her
honor and finally repulsed the boy,
who turned and fled.
Strong talk of lynching was heard
on every side, when the news of Har
ris' second criminal assault was learn
ed in the neighborhood. A posse, con-
sisting of neighbors and relatives of
the unfortunate girl, was Immediately
formed and all night long the chase

cial aid of the Southern Education

sas.

man was authorized to appoint four
committees-an executive committee
of seven members and three subcom-
mittees of three members each--to
| consider four specific subjects. The
executive committee is authorized to
prepare an address to the public, out
| lining the aims and objects of the
commission, so that the people of Ar
kansas may become thoroughly famil-
| lar with the work that the organiza-
| ton intends to accomplish. The sub
committees are to prepare digest
on the consolidation of rural schools
! fbo ci,h iant of Ct n + a
aid to county high schools.
Superintendent Cook said he would
name the committees within the next
day or two and that he expected all
would begin at once the work assigned
| them He believed each committee
would be prepared to make its report
within about 20 days from now, when
he would call meeting of the com
mission.

bership of the commission: George B..
Cook, chairman; DR.. Henry S. Hart
zog, secretary; Mrs. John |. Moore of
