CIRCUMSTANCES CONVICT
 HENRY C. BEATTIE
Discovery By Physicians Has Convict ing Influence For State
 Trial Monday.

Richmond, Va, Aug. 9.-The last link in the circumstantial evidence evidence against Henry Clay Beattie, was forged for the prosecution today when two physicians were found who will testify that there was not grain of gun powder on young Mrs. Beattle's face, but that inside the gaping wound both gunpowder stains and the Wad- ding from the cartridge were found. These witnesses leave no room for doubt that the shotgun used in the murder was pressed against Mrs. Beattie's face and discharged. Had the weapon been leveled at distance of foot or more the face would have borne some trace of powder Beattle will be indicted next Monday. Both sides declare that they are ready for trial

 The fire caught in the elevator shaft at 7:3O and spread to the fifth and sixth floors. It was two and half hours before the firemen were able to get the flames under control. For time the entire hotel seemed doomed as we'll as His MaJesty's Theater, which adjoins it. Great eX- citement prevailed among the two hundred guests. There was mad rush to the exits, none of the guests making any attempt to rescue any of their belongings. All were dressing for dinner when the fire was discoV- cred and many of them left the hotel without some of their wearing appar- el.

PEOPLE OF DUMAS HOSTS AT AN. NttI AFFAIR YESTERDAY
 AND PROVIDE FEATURES.
JUDGE GOULD MADE HIT
Declares For Local Option, a Revision of the Tariff and Government
 Control of Public Roads.

Five thousand residents of Desha Lincoln, Jefferson and other South eastern Arkansas counties attended the annual barbecue at Dumas De- siia county, yesterday and were roy- ally entertained. Many features were provided for the visitors during the day, prominent among which were two baseball games between the Du- mas and Arkansas City teams and the Dumas and Dewitt teams. dance. which was attended by several hun dred young people closed the festiy- ities last night. The barbecue was one of the biggest spreads pulled off In Southeast Arkansas ill recent months and almost every kind of barbecued meat and fowl was served
 Secretary of State Earle w. Hodges. of Little Rock; District Attorney T. iiavls Nixon and Judge James Gould. or this city, candidate for Congress; Senator Arthur Johnson, of Star City. and Prof. J. l.. Spence, superintend- ent of the Fourth District Agricul.ur- al school, were among the speakers. All of them received a big ovation but Judge Gould's address, in which he outlined some of the things he would do if elected to Congress from this District, attracted no little at tention and won him much applause from the thousands of spectators
 Judge Gould went on record as be- ing opposed to statewide Prohibition as it exists at present in some states without being successfully enforced. He declared himself in favor of local option, but said that the government should be prohibited from issuing li- censes in dry districts and encourage ing people to violate the law.
 In discussing the Tariff Revision, Judge Gould said that the Tariff should be revised so as to more heav- fly tax the luxuries of life and lessen the tax on the necessities of life. By doing this he said Congress would protect the poorer classes of citizens and at the same time compel the rich to bear the heavier burdens of taxa tion. He advocated deep waters throughout the country and especially in the south, where they are so badly needed at this time. He said, if elect ed to Congress, he would immediate ly urge the government to establish an engineers office in Pine Bluff, that the farms of Southeast Arkansas might be protected from flood promptly, without the necessity of having to call an engineer from Mem- phis or some other point when floods come Judge Gould said he believes the government ought to go into the road building business to promote good roads thrughout the Union, the same as it is handling the harbors and rivers.

During tie past few weeks General Gofdau has visited number of resorts in an effort to recover his shattered health, but none seemed effective in checking the decline, and relatives and friends have felt that the end of his career was near since he return cd to Memphis recently from Tate Springs.

The h came when Garen wasn't look i too, for he did not believe the les he had read in the newspapers 1 his raid on the Ohio Club, which personally conducted tour all |own, had gotten him "in bad" the leaders of both Democratic Republican parties. Neither did lake due and careful cognizance bnferences between his chief, |table A. B. Carpenter, together said political leaders, both of [ocracy and the G. o.

 No Notification. Garen said today that they didn't give him any official notification of that fact, and then added with con- mendable pride that:
 "Even if they had told me would have resigned on the spot, for I couldn't have done otherwise in view of my oath of office"
 When Constable Carpenter told Garen that his services would no longer be needed, and Garen interro- gated his chief as to the why and wherefore. Garen says that Carpen- ter informed him that "the boys thought it best to ask for his commits sion."
 Naturally Garen wanted to know who was included by the juvenile ap- pellation, and says further that Car penter specified Tom Prichard, Car penters Republican campaign manag-
 It was rumored that Garen would seek an independent commission, but this he has strenuously denied. He even went so far as to say that he had no animosity against Constable Car penter, which beautifully illustrates even in these strenuous times the brotherhood of a man.
 The dismissal of Garen has caused a great deal of public comment.
 (. l. U. Up in Air.
 Among the old "C. l. U." element there is "wailing and gnashing of teeth,' and Constable Carpenter has them guessing. The Citizens Im- provement Union, those dyed-in-the- wool reformers, regardless of the commercial effect of the clubhouses, believe that all gaming should cease, and when Constable Carpenter rode into office at the recent special cleo ton and announced my policies which were so antagonistic to club houses, they hailed him as a twen- tieth century Moses and believed that he would deliver the goods Now they sort of suspect that, recent events considered, the new constable has handed them package"
 Wood, He Lay Low.
 There is one little man, however, who is saying nothing but doing world of thinking He is Prosecuting Attorney J. B. Wood, who smiled smile that had the facial grimace Of the former sage of Sagamore Hill looking tame in comparison when Constable Carpenter announced that he would wage unceasing war on the gambling houses.
 "Well done, thou good and faithful servant" was Judge Woods greeting to Constable Carpenter, and the prosecuting attorney held the new ot- ficial up as a paragon of all that an officer should be.
 Many are wondering if Judge Wood, on his return from Mount Ida, where he is busy in Circuit Court, will not insert little probe all his own ana endeavor to gain some real informa- tion, the result of which is sure to pc interesting.
 It is rumored that in case another deputy is needed to carry out future edicts or business of the constable s office, Humane Officer Boutwell, will be honored with the commission that Garen once held.
 Verify, "there are more mysteries between heaven and earth. Horatlo than thou hast dreamed of in thy phl- losophies."
