Two SLAIN IN A

both almost instantly killed in a duel
between the two men at Gaynon's

day yesterday and had paid several
visits to the Gaynon home, and had
said he was there "to kill or be kill
ed Gaynon endeavored to have Bar
ger arrested, but the latter eluded the
officers and came to Gaynon's house
shortly after II o'clock. Barger en-
deavored to enter the house through a
screened window and Gaynon, seeing
him, pulled his pistol and fired. Bar
ger drew his weapon at the same in
slant, each firing several times, and
both fell mortally wounded, Barger
dying Immediately and Gaynon about
80 minutes later.

BULLET HIT man
HALF MILE AWAY

Fort Smith, July PA case al
most without record as shooting
episode occurred here yesterday aft
ernoon in which Robert Ford, an aged
and crippled negro, was shot in the
forehead, although the bullet was fired
almost half mile distant from him.
The missile imbedded itself beneath
the flesh and fattened out against his
skull, causing nothing more than a
flesh wound.
During the afternoon d. c. Berry
and Nellie Harris, the latter a local
character, were walking along the
Poteau river bridge when their con-
duet became repulsive to Mrs. Carter,
wife of the bride tender Mrs. Car
ter is stationed upon the Oklahoma
side of the river and when the couple
refused to leave the neighbOrhood in
an orderly manner she fired five shots
at them with 38-calibre revolver.
Neither Perry nor his female com
panion were injured, but one of the
bullets struck Ford. He was seated
on the porch of his home at Red Row,
which is just few feet from being
half mile from the point where the
shots were fired The bullet was
mashed as fiat as a coin against his
skull. He came to this city and had
physician abstract the missile.
Berry and the woman were arrest
ed, but because Mrs. Carter resides
on the Oklahoma side she was not
molested.

Wants Deed Destroyed
20 Years Ago Restored

The fire which destroyed the old
frame courthouse in Conway in Jan
uary, 1889, is the cause of a suit
filed in the Faulkner chancery court
today by Mrs. B. T. Markham, Mrs.
Markham's children and their heirs
being named as defendants. The
blaintitf alleges that lot 8, block 19,
of Robinsons plan of Conway, was
conveyed to her by her husband, r. 7
Markham in 1889, and the deed was
given to J. V. Mitchell, then the re-
corder, to be recorded. The court
house fire destroyed the deed before ii
was entered of record and the plain
tiff asks that the deed be restored.

COUNCIL TAKES No
ACTION ON DEPOT
MATTER NOT BROUGHT UP
CROWD OF SPECTATORS PRES.
ENT AT MEETING ARE
DISAPPOINTED.

Contrary to the expectations of a
considerable crowd of spectators as
sembled at the meeting, the city coun-
ell did not consider the passenger
depot and public square matter last
night, the question not being even
mentioned at the meeting. 1t is
thought possible, since considerable
controversy has arisen over the prop
osition, that the council will take no
action on it, although a resolution
embodying,the proposition of the rail
way company may be introduced at
an carly meeting.
The recent ordinance providing for
the removal of all wooden posts and
awnings in the business district was
amended last night to exempt the
north and east sides of the. public
square Those who favored this ac-
tion stated that the wide awnings on
the east side of the square was an
absolute necessity on account of being
unprotected from the sun in the west,
and that the danger from fire was
small on account of the awnings being
covered with iron and no other build
ing being in front of them. The reso-
luton amending the ordinance was
adopted, Aldermen n. c. Martin and

Engineer Watkins Thinks
Cadron Water is Good

Engineer G.. A. Watkins of the Con-
way waterworks district today ship
ped several more jugs of Cadron creek
water to Fayetteville to be analyzed
by the University chemist. About 10
gallons had previously been sent to
this chemist, but letter from him re-
quested an additional quantity in or
der to carry through the exhaustive
tests to which the water is being put.
It has been already passed upon most
favorably for drinking purposes, the
additional water being sent TO analyze
it's qualities for use in steam boilers.
Mr. Watkins thinks the Cadron
water will prove far superior to that
taken from the Arkansas river. "At
the time when the river water is at
its worst-when it is very low in the
summer-the Cadron water will be
the best" he stated this morning.
"The east fork of the stream practic-
ally stops running in very dry wealth
er, and the water in the creek at the
point where it will be taken into the
mains is as such time supplied al
most entirely from the north fork.
The north fork is fed by pure noun
tain springs, the water being very
clear, so that Conway will have the
best water when the river water is at
it's worst"

have the railroad company continue

templated by the railroad company

PEODL|NC ACT TO
HIGH TRIBUNAL
ARKANSAS CASE APPEALED
APPEAL TO SUPREME COURT
QUESTIONS RIGHT OF STATE
TO ENACT LAW.

Little Rock, July 27.-Arkansas
famous peddling act enacted by the
last legislature, the constitutionallty
of which was recently sustained by
the Arkansas supreme court, will now
GO to the United States supreme court
for final determination.
The appeal is in the case of E. l..
Gannaway VS.. the State, and also A.
C. Cranshaw VS.. the State, both cases
coming up from Union county, where
the appellants, Crenshaw and Gamma
way, were fined for not paying the
required license.
The, were selling stoves for com
pany located outside of the state, each
stove was shipped into the state sep
arate from the others, coming in on
what is known as the Original pack
age" direct from the factory or dis
tributng house to the buyer in this
state. The prosecuting attorney in
Union county contended that this was
"peddling" within the meaning of the
statutes, and the agents were fined
for violating the law, they appealed
to the state supreme court, where the
lower court was sustained.
The appeal to the United States SUI
preme court is on the ground that the
action of the state legislature in pass
ing such a law is illegal because the
operation of the law interferes with
interstate commerce.
