CLOSE SCRUTINY
 OF CAPITOL BOND

Little Rock, Jan. 8.-Within few days the bond of William Miller Sons Company, the state capitol contrac- tors, will either be approved or disap- proved by the state capitol commits sion so the contractors can go ahead with their work with a good grace, or provide another bond. Yesterday afternoon the reports of commercial agencies which give the bonding com pany a high rating, and declare they are good for any bond they sign, were filed with the commission. Several banks of the city have also been ask ed to assist the commission in it's in vestigation of the bond. This delay on the part of the commission IS not considered at all as a reflection on the bonding company, but a mere matter of precaution on the part of the com mission, which is determined not to get tangled up with a bond which cannot be collected should anything go wrong in the completion of the building.

GAMBLERS HOLDER.

Hot Springs, Jan. 8.-Lights are beginning to appear in the palatlai gambling clubs of Hot Springs, the
 most of which have been dark and
 cob-webby for the past two or three
 years. The signs that this resort will this season enjoy one of the most prosper, ous years of her history is proving
 too great a strain on the cupidity of
 the knights of the green cloth and
 they are breaking over the barriers set by the reform element in Septem Der. 1906, and which for one reason
 or another they have been compelled to respect more or less circumspectly since that time.
 Hot Springs has spent thousands of dollars this fall in advertising in the
 metropolitan newspapers of the coun-
 try. The seeds thus sown are already
 beginning to yield heavy returns and
 the incoming trains are crowded. The gamblers, hungry for their long fast, are operating more boldly than in years, and unless the organization of the reform element organizes another, 1 "skidoo" committee or adopts some other stern measure such a smote the gamblers three years ago, it won't be long before things were as they were
 in the so-called palmy days of the re- sort.
 Within the past few days one of the gambling clubs which has been vacant since the fall of 1906, has changed hands, the consideration being $60 900. It is now open with some of the wealthiest members of the gambling fraternity in Arkansas Tn charge.

The Sanders Entertainers gave an other excellent performance at he Grand last night to an almost crowd ed house. Their sketches were as good as the night before and every one who attended went away well pleased. It can be said that MT. and Mrs. Sand CTS are as good entertainers as have ever visited our city and have made many friends while here. A feature of last nights performance was the wonderful exhibition of Earl Wright, in his barrel jumping feats. They were very exciting and held the au- dience in suspense throughout To- night the Sanders will close their en- gagement in this city and promise to give one of the best shows that they are able to give.

CRAND'S GRAND OPENING
NEXT MONDAY NIGHT WITH THE COW PUNCHER"
 AS THE PLAY.

The new Grand opera house will be formally opened in this city next Mon
 day night, January 10, with "The Cow
 Puncher" as the first attraction. The new playhouse is under the manage ment of Messrs. Pence, Rogers X Stew
 art, who have spared no expense in
 preparing an up-to-date playhouse for Conway, one that is as good as to be found in any country city in the state. They have seated the building with handsome opera chairs, the floor has
 been inclined and the stage, which is 40 feet wide and 32 feet deep, is large enough for the big companies that they expect to bill in this city.
 The play Monday night, "The Cow
 Puncher," is a strong western melo-
 drama, the scenes of which are laid in Arizona, and is considered one of the
 best wbstern plays ever written. The
 company is playing two-nights' en-
 gagement in Little Rock, and today s
 Gazetl says the following in regard
 to the performance last night:
 "The Cow Puncher" was the attrac-
 ton at the Capital theater last night.
 It is a melodrama written by Hal
 Reid, and those familiar with MT.
 Reid's style will know that there are
 enough moving 'scapes by flood and | field and f the imminent deadly breach and elsewhere to make Othel-
 los story of adventures look like a Sunday school book. Like all of Mir. Reid's melodramas, the moral is there the bad men get what is due them, all but one who reforms, and honesty and bravery and virtue triumph, and get married besides.
 It must be said also that the seen cry is much more elaborate than is
 usually found in popular-priced melo- | drama, and there is some good mate rial in the cast. Eva M Hayes, who
 will be pleasantly remembered as lead
 ing woman in the Taylor Stock Co.,,
 ny fills the same position acceptably
 in The Cow Puncher," Miss Majorie Davis has soubrette role which
 shows her capability, and Edna Ora
 ham does a Mexican character part

TO APPEAL TO PRESIDENT
POSTMASTER AT LITTLE ROCK WILL TRY TO HOLD
 HIS JOB.

Little Rock, Jan S.-The big Re
 publican blow off is thing of the past and it is now in order for those who failed to get the indorsement of the committee yesterday to take the matter now before the president and undertake to have him override the recommendation of the state central Republican committee. The meeting opened yesterday morning with Capt. F. w. Tucker presiding. The morning session was consumed with the in dorsing of the postmasters in the various towns where there was no op- position In the afternoon the fight ing began. The Little Rock postof- flee was the first to be considered, and U. s. Bratton was unanimously indorsed for this appointment. w.. s. Holt, who has held the office for three terms, was his opponent, and on the
 first ballot received five of the 90 bal
 lots cast It was then decided to
 make the indorsement unanimous for Bratton.
 Holt will probably carry the mat
 ter to Washington, as he has the back ing of the business men of Little Rock
 who sent many petitions to the com- mittee asking for the recommendation of Postmaster Holt.
 Frank Bungardener was chosen as
 the postmaster at Fort Smith He was
 indorsed by the Sebastian county com-
 mittee and later by the executive com mittee of the state organization, but
 the indorsement was held up in Wash 1 ington on account of James D. Moore, dark horse candidate and distant
 relative of the Taft family, was after the appointment Moore was not a contestant before the state committee
 and Bungardener was unanimously in indorsed.
 Outside of postoffice matters, the
 only place where there was any oppo- sition was for receiver of the United
 States land office here John E. Bush
 the negro who has held this office for a number of years, was opposed up | to the time the ballot was to be taken
 late in the afternoon, by J. N. Dono- hoo, a Helena negro. Donohoo with
 drew at the last moment and Bush was unanimously indorsed.

AN ODE TO SPRING. BY DR. J. F.. GODFREY.

The bitter weather of the last three weeks has moved certain editor to repent of his sins in abusing the spring poets. and he joins their ranks with the following ode: Come, gentle spring: I used to chase the poets with a Call a policeman if they warbled
 near; Now I'd do no such thing. For, gentle spring,
 I shiver meath my arctic overcoat, And feel the icicles within my throat And cannot sig nor sing. I find me yearning still, While here I shiver OCT these chilly
 gratcs,
 For something like the birthstone
 that awaits That liar of Pakersville. Come then, o, spring, o, summer, With all your fervent beams shine
 down on me
 For fifty thousand frozen souls
 agree, This winter is hummer.
