County Consta bic Baker and Police

LITTLE ROCK HAS
 45,94l PEOPLE Official Announcement from Washington Shows In
 crease of 1884
BIG DISAPPOINTMENT
Argenta's Population is Not Included in RepOrt-Say Enumeration
 Not Perfect.

Washington, ID. C., Sept 20-(Spe- ciaD-The census bureau today an nounced that the population of Little Rock according to the census of 1910, is 45,941 being an increase of 7,634 or 19.9 per cent as compared with 3S,,307 in 1900. The census of 1890 gave the population as 25,S74, that of 1900 being an increase of 4S1 per cent
 Are Disappointed.
 Little Rock, Ark, Sept. 20.-This announcement of the population of Little Rock is a great disappointment to the people of Little Rock, who had been confidently excepting much larger figure.
 It should be considered of course, that the census of 1900 and that of 1890 included also Argenta, which has since been separated from Little Rock, but still it was believed that the population of Little Rock itself would be much larger than the figure given.
 In the complete census report a footnote will be added about the sep aration of Argenta, but as the popu- lation of Argenta has not been an- nounced it is impossible at this time to give the combined population of the two towns. The population of Ar genta is being variously- estimated at from 5000 to 15,Q00.
 The official figures are a very con- siderable reduction from the estimate made last January by the new city directory, which estimated the popu- lation of Little Rock at 7S,S2S, and that of Argenta at 14,62S, combined population of 93,456, which now ap- pears~ to be greatly exaggerated.
 The returns seem to prove the charges made at the time the enume- ration was under way that the count was not thorough, and that the en- umerators were not giving the city g. full and complete count It will be remembered that the newspapers and commercial bodies took the matter up at the time, and used every effort to secure more accurate enumeration.
 It should also be considered that the figures given, which are generally accepted as pitifully small, do not in clude the very large area of populous suburbs not included in the corpo- rate limits of the city, where there are several thousand people.

MISS HOWELL, STAR.
 THE WHOLE SHOW

Miss Virginia Howell, a talented southern girl and>a new star prac- tically unknown to Pine Bluffians up to last evenin, appeared at the Elks theater in a dramatization of Mrs. Southworth's novel "Ishmaer The audience was small, due possibly to the near approach of Sidney Drew and his muchly advertised company, who will present Billy at the Elks Theater tomorrow night. It is indeed poor judgment to have a young wo- man of so much dramatic ability as Miss Howell make tour of her na- tive soil with a company of actors who in no wise fit their respective parts. Pine Bluff theater goers are familiar with the story winch nas been cleverly dramatized 5y Miss Alice E. Ives. The play is even bet ter than the book, but lack of good support placed Miss Howell at a great disadvantage in her work. She gets all there is to be gotten out of the part and her emotional scenes are well done. It was evident last night that Jack Byrne, who recently join ed the company, is new in the role of "Viscount Vincent, but MT. Schaeffer Gas per program) fails to accomplish good results that might have been gotten out of the part of Herman Brudenell,'' the wealthy planter. Gertrude Doherty is sat- isfactory black nanny and is the only member of the cast outside of Miss Howell who deserves special mention.

BRYAN TO WRITE
 ON ARKANSAS Next Issue of Commoner to Contain Account of I. &
 R. Campaign.
TALK ABOUT CENSUS
Governor Donaghey Will Appoint His Staff Soon-Is Framing Leg
 iSlatiye Message.

Little Rock, Ark, Sept. 20.-The next issue of the Commoner will have lengthy article from the pen of William Jennings Bryan on the re- cent election in Arkansas and the vic tory gained by Amendment No. 10, Col. Bryan keeps in daily touch with the situation in order to tabulate the counties and total the results as they come in. Secretary of State o. c. Lud- wig still lacks the official returns from 26 counties, but these should all be in by the end of the week and these then will show the total majority for the amendment. Gov. Donaghey claims the amendment car ried by to 1. In making his calcu- lation he states that fully half of those not voting would have favored the bill had they voted, and they must be counted in on the reckon ing. On the counties reported, the amendment has majority of about 15,000 and it grows with each county.
 Sore Over Census.
 The commercial interests of Lit tie Rock are up in arms at the cen- SuS report made public Tuesday, in which Little Rock is given a popula- tion of 45,941 and all sorts of wild claims of oversights and missed sec tions of the city are being claimed. The~result is disappointing to all people in the city, and it is probable a protest will be sent to Washington for a recount, in which the commer- cial organization will offer to bear a good portion Of the expense. The population of Argenta has not yet been announced, but with the show ing made by Little Rock, it is not es- timated to be over 10000. There is only one happy corporation over the result This is the Little Rock Elec- tric & Railway Co.,, which has a fran chise permitting it to charge straight , cents for fares until the city had a population of 60,000, when the tickets will be sold at reduced rates It was thought the company would have to sell tickets at the conclusion of the census taking this year, but the result gives them another ten years at full fare.
 Governors Staff.
 Gov. G. W. Donaghey will not ap- point his staff until the first of Jan uary, and the announcement will be made at the time he is inaugurated two weeks later. Gov. Donaghey has spent much time during the summer framing up his message and were the legislature to meet at the begin ming of next week, he would have no difficulty in getting it ready for that body. The message this year will contain recommendations wholly along the lines Gov Donaghey has ad- vocated in his speeches over the state and in his statements in board meet ings or on public topics.

Last night about 7:3O o'clock, when Fred Gossell and Miss Nellie Meyer were out driving on the Sweet Home Pike, four miles southeast of Little Rock, someone at the roadside shot at them and both received slight flesh wounds on the head and face.
 Neither wound is of a serious na ture, but whoever did the shooting (and that is one of the deepest mys teries that has baffled the officers of Little Rock for a number of years) evidently aimed to kill MT. Gossell, although small shot were used. The shot literally tore the hat worn by him to pieces.
 The couple drove to farmhouse, and telephbned for Dr. Snodgrass, who went out immediately and dress ed the wounds. Returning they met a buggy, apparently with no driver, and an investigation disclosed the fact that a dead negro was in the bug gy. His name was Arthur Hatton and he had been shot with buckshot !, This negro was driver for John H. Martin of the Martin Arms Company and had been to the depot with Mir. Martin, who left on the s o'clock train. Later he took a negro girl driving. This negro girl was ar rested by Deputy Sheriffs Hawkins and Reichardt and is now in jail. Man Demanded Money. She says a man came out from the roadside and demanded money from the negro and when he was refused the man fired upon the negro. When the shots were fired she ran and did not return for several minutes.
 The shot entered the negros head near the right eye and literally tore the top of his head off, scattering the brains over the top of the buggy. The theory of robbery looks good in this case, because after killing the negro the robber turned his pockets inside out, took off his shoes and hat and let the horse and buggy with the dead body go.
 Mir. Gossell and Miss Meyers. In the meantime MT. Gossel and Miss Meyers were returning to the city in an automobile with Dr. Snod- grass when they met Charles Diehl going in the other direction. It was not until later, however, that they learned that Mrs. Diehl had been shot in. the same vicinity and that she was l in a serious condition.
 Killing of Ed Nelson. At TAO o'clock yesterday evening the police station received mes- sage from 3200 Arch street saying that Charlie Wooden had shot ne gro named Ed Nelson. The police l went at once with the patrol wagon, but before they could get there the l negro had made his escape. It is not 1 stated what he and the negro had the trouble about, but Deputy Sheriff Hawkins is of the opinion that he made his escape from the scene of the shooting, and realizing that he had killed the negro he knew he had ], to get away and that he had to have money to get away with. Deputy l Hawkins thinks he hid himself in the woods on the Sweet Home Pike for the purpose of robbing anyone who passed along the road.
 Shooting About the Same Time. But the hours are somewhat con- flicting. It seems the shooting at one place, at least a part of it, was talk
