of the people having an opportunity
to vote on it at the earliest possible
moment. and am opposed To putting it
of until the general election, where
it would GET mixed up with political
issues. The purpose of separate mu-

see no reason why the charter could
not be submitted at an early date
Pass So-Called Canvass.
ADD Pass, as usual, took a pessi-
mistic view of the matter He said
that he had felt all along that there
was going to be as much opposition
to the new charter as there was last
fall. He had not noticed any change
of sentiment in favor of it. He claimed
that he had spent four days consult
ing Il hundred voters of his ward on
the matter, and that while he had
found the sentiment practically unani-
found that 80 to 90 per cent were in
favor of holding the election next fall
the rest favoring an early election
He said that he did not doubt but
that this was fair representation
of the whole city as regards special
election. Aid. Pass read lengthy
statement that he used as IA basis for
an argument against the calling of
special election. He wound up by max
ing professions that the people ought
TO have a fair show to decide the
matter after due deliberatiOn''
Aid. Lloyd expressed of skepticism
of Aid. Pass figures and the audience
applaudcd.
Aid. Hampl came to Aid. Pass rescue
and said that he thought that sixty
per cent of the taxpayers were against
ia special election. He did not make
that eighty-five per cent of the people
in his ward were against special
election, and said that he would vote
against it.
Will Obey the Law
Aid. Mahowald said that he was not
against the new charter. and was not
saying that he was for it. He felt
that if it was submitted at the gem
eral election it would satisfy the peo-
Iple. If the law required that special
election be called within ninety days
he would not oppose the law.
AID. Eichstaedt moved that special.
election be held March "a. and Aid.
Lloyd seconded this.
/ Aid. Mahowald said that he was not
iready to vote at this time, but that
he would be ready to vote at the next
meeting. He wanted to give the peo-
jple chance to be at the meeting
and have all sides heard
AID. Pass said that he, too, was not
ready to vote upon the matter now.
! Aid. Eichstaedt withdrew the motion,

meeting.
Aid. Pass: There has got to be a

the charter last fall is against it now.

MRS. D'I0NEY

Widow of Little River Planter Ac-

Ashdown, July 22.-(Special)- )-Ella Deloney, widow of the late w. l.. De- loney, who was accused of compile ity in his murder, July 13, was acquit- ted my the july at 4:10 p. m. yester- day, after deliberating about IS hours. There was no demonstration by any one following the announcement of the verdict as Mrs. Deloney walked out of the court house.
 This verdict means that Oscar Pull lem, alone and unaided, shot and killed Deloney, and that his confess sion duplicating the widow of his vic tim was untrue. She refused to dis cuss the verdict, and said not a word to judge, counsel or jurors, but silent ly left the room.
 She was cool and self-posses throughout the ordeal, never swerv- ing the breadth of hair in any of her statements in absolute denial of all of Pullem's allegations During the ex- aminations of witnesseT she sat stol- idly in her chair. cycling the jury, and when Pullem was brought into the room she never removed her un- flinching gaze from his face. She will return at once to her farm in Little River county.
 Pullem to Hang September 2.
 Court adjourned this morning after a three-week's session, one of the busiest ever held in the history of the county. The court room was crowded during the time that sentence was be- ing passed upon those who had been convicted during the term. The most interesting incident of the morning 2 was the sentencing of Oscar Pullem to be hanged September 2. Judge Steele in passing sentence delivered one of the most impre 7sive addresses ever heard in the court room, and then called upon Pullem to make any statement he wished.
 ' Pullem replied that he had no one to blame but himhelf. He reiterated all the charges he had made against Mrs. Deloney, who was yesterday ac- quilted, and declared that it was hn- cause of his infatuation for her thet he IS now facing the gallows. He retold the story of the killing. and said that on the night of the murdo, he hitched his horse cuartnr oe . mile from the Deloney home. filled his shoes with cayenne penner tc throw dogs of the scent, walked te

The mass meeting called for next Tuesday night at the court house means much to the people of Pine Bluff 1t has been called at the sol iciation of the officers of the M. D. & c. railroad in order that they may come in close touch with the people of Pine Bluff and discuss railroad matters with them. The building of the M. D. and G. road into Pine Bluff will insure us the location of factories that will not come here oth- erwise, and will give to Pine Bluff large wholesale and retail trade that now goes to other places but which by right belongs to Pine Bluff. Ev- eryone interested in the future growth and welfare of the town should attend this meeting, but it is to the business men in particular that we appeal, for upon them and their action depends the future of Pine Bluff, and it is up to them to say whether Pine Bluff shall be clasSed among the progressive cities of the south or the dead ones. Let ev- cry business man come out next Tuesday night and make one strong united pull for this road and success will be assured.

POULTRY HOUSES.

so many conditions must be con-
sidered in building poultry houses
that each individual must in the end
plan his own house However, the
plans here suggested, for which no
especial originality is claimed, will,
with slight modification, meet a wide
variety of needs.
The essential requirements of a
poultry house are comfort for the
hens and convenience for the at
tondant II should be dry, well
lighted and well ventilated. 1t is
not necessary that it be warm. Ven
tilation is usually secured by open
windows or muslin-coyered open
ings. PerChes should be as far back
from the front as possible, and i'm
mediately next to the tight rear
wall
Dirt floors are cheapest, and if
properly elevated and drained, are
probably best for the comfort of
the fowls. Double board floors with
skaters felt between are warm, dry
and comfortable. If properly ele-
waited, rats will not be able to es-
tablish themselves underneath.
When single board floors are used,
skaters felt should be laid over the
joists before putting down the
boards. Cement floors are expen-
sive, and are apt to be cold and
damp. They often furnish ideal
conditions for harboring rats.
All poultry houses should have
tight walls. Rough boards may be
used and covered with roofing pa.
per or shingles, or grooyed siding
may be used with skaters felt back
of it. Windows should not be pro.
yided in excess of real need. About
one square foot of glass to 8 square
| feet of floor space is sufficient.
A Piano-Box BroOder House
Nearly every farm needs a few small
houses that may be equipped with
| brooders or used for broOding hens
They are especially useful where
/ there is reason TO fear gapes, ol
rats and other enemies.
The cheapest way of providing
these houses is by utilizing piano
| boxes. One way of constructing sucl
a house is to lay the box fiat on iii
back and remove the entire top. Th'
sides should then be extended, max
