BIC BANQUET FOR
 STUDENTS PLANNED
TO DINE SEVERAL HUNDRED
ENTERTAINMENT COMMITTEE PLANNING TO ENTERTAIN
 "HOME-COMERS."

By far the greatest banquet ever undertaken in Conway will be q fea- ture of the entertainment of the for mer Hendrix students during the Homecoming to be held here in con necton with the annual commence ment exercises of the college, June l2 to 15. As no building in the city large enough to entertain the crowd could be secured the committee has rented a gigantic tent, with seat- ing capdcity of 1900, and under 1t the banquet will be given on the evening of June II. The committee is now receiving bids from caterers for serV- ing the dinner, and it is expected that at least 600 citizens Of Conway and former students of Hendrix college will be entertained.
 The dinner will be served at $l q plate, and all of the local citizens and students who expect to attend are requested to notify E. Il NeCms at the Faulkner County Bank on or be fore June 1, in order that places for them may be reserved. Afser that time the preference in allottlbg places will be given to the visitors.
 Secretary Nj. |. DunWay of Little Rock, who is a member of the alumni committee in charge of the home coming movement, writes that out of 2,0OG letters recently sent oat, he las already had responses from about I50 former students, a great major ity of whom state that it is their in- tention to attend the homecoming exercises.

PRESIDING OFFICERS
 FOR CONVENTION ADMINISTRATION SLATE
GAZETTE SAYS PARKS AND TAYLOR ARE THE SEE
 LECTIONS.

That Tillman E. Parks of Lewis vile, Lafayette county, will be the candidate for temporary chairman of the state Democratic convention on the administration slate is understood now in political circles, says an article in this mornings Gazette. It is re- ported that the administration will probably pick out Col Sam Taylor of Pine Bluff as the candidate for per manent chairman. Although no state ments are made by either Governor Donaghey or the leaders of the ad- ministration faction, it is understood that the administration would support Mr Parks for either temporary or permanent chairman of the conven- tion and that he will be the selection for temporary presiding officer. Hon ors are about equally distributed be- tween the two positions. As tempo raIy chairman Mr. Parks would de- liver the chairman's address to the convention.
 Mr. Parks has represented Lafay- ette county in the lower branch of the legislature for several sessions and was recognized as the administration whip in the lower house last year. He took a prominent part in the manage ment of Governor Donaghey's last campaign at the close.
 As far as is known in political cir cles the secretaries on the administra- ton slate have not been selected.
 It is understood that an effort will be made at the state convention, which will be held in the Auditorium rink June [ to incorporate some kind of a plank in the platform relative to the state revenue system and need of

JEFFERSON GRAND JURY
 DENOUNCFS LYNCHINC

Pine Bluff, May 21.-Tn it's final report, made to JuGge A. B. Grace in the Jefferson circuit court, the Jef- fltscn county pcand jury denounced the recent lynching of Jud Jones, negro, in this city, and regrets the fact that it was unable to bring any of the lynchers into court. It al- so complmented Judge Grace highly for the system he has had in vogue here for some months, whereby he maintains an almost continuous grand jury service in this county in order to dispose of criminal cases, between court terms, thereby saving the coun- ty much unnecessary expense in car ing for prisoners in the county jail.
 The committee that visited the Jef- ferson county poor farm recommend ed the demolition of the two buildings there, saying: "They are germ breeders and not fit for dog to live in; nothing but bug harbor, den for rats and mice. and fire-trap."

more money with which to maintain the government. Governor Donaghey has not said whether he favors the plan, but t is reported that some of the Democratic leaders will support such a move in order to meet any at tack that may be made by the Repub- lican party on the ground that the rate of taxation in this state is un- usually high and yet there is not enough revenue to operate the gov ernment
 What will be done in the way of an ti-liquor legislation before the con venton is in doubt, but politicians ex- press the belief that little effort, if any, will be made to adopt a state wide prohibition plank.

Yesterday afternoon in one of the most exciting games of the season Conway defeated Hendrix college by the close score of to on the Hen drix diamond. The game was on the one the two, three, order all the way through. The main feature was the pitching of Bost for Conway. allow ing only one hit and striking out eight men.

DEFEAT CAUSES NELSON
TO CHANGE ALL HIS PLANS

RICHMOND ARENA, Cal, Feb. %.
Former Champion Battling Nelson
had planned to attend a dinner tonight
in San Francisco, which was to have
been given by friends, and was to have
left for Chicago tonight on the Cali
fornia limited. to keep theatrical en-
gagement in that city.
His defeat today and his physical
condition caused him to change his
plans. He was taken from here to San
Francisco to a hammam bath, where he
will submit to medical examination.
Nelson said he would issue a statement
later.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-02-23


Body Blows Effective
The fight demonstrated beyond a
doubt that 1t takes a body fighter to
beat Nelson. Punishment over the
kidneys and heart weakened the Dane.
He gradually succumbed to these on
slaughts. Nelson met a younger man
who fought him at his own game, and
by cleverer and faster work beat him
down systematically without taking
any chances.
Referee Smith made the following
statement to the Associated Press:
''Wolgast fought Nelson at his own
game and beat him fairly and squarely.
Nelson complained at times of VOL
CAST butting, but 1 paid little heed, as
it was simply a case Of the Battler
getting the worst of a game where
both were equally guilty.
Both men fought the same, but one
had youth, the over to come back,
vigor, life and all that goes with it..
while the years of fighting through
which Nelson has passed sapped his
strength and left him without the old
snap, dash and stamina. When I
stopped the fight it had lost all sem
blance of a boxing contest, and l de-
clared Wolgast the winner to save
Nelson from possible serious injury"
Wolgast said after the fight:
MY fight today was like training
bout. I could fight all week with a
man like Nelson. Only once during

ADD ANOTHER TO RECORD
Santa Monica High Puts Up Good
Fight, but Finally Gives Up
to Superiors

The newly organized Glendale team
yesterday afternoon on the Glendale
diamond defeated the Santa Monica
high school bunch by a score of 8 to
4. Fast playing was indulged in by
both clubs and the score stood 2 to 2
up to the first of the ninth inning.
Glendale sent up its best stickers and
came through with timely hits which
netted them runs.
The twirling of Benson for the Win
ners was of excellent form and only
two hits were secured off his delivery.
This youngster struck out twelve of
his opponents, while McNutt, for the
seasiders, made nine walk the strike
out plank. So far the Glendale team
has defeated such fast mines as the
Harvard military school by a score of
IA to 8; Echo Parks, 8 to 2, and the
Edendale grammar school, IA to l.
Next Saturday on the Glendale dia-
mond the final games in the grammar
