RAILROADS WILL , PAY FRANCHISE TAX
Rock Island and Missouri G North Arkansas Make
 Payments.
THE iTlME LIMIT HAS ENDED
Treasurer Crockett Will Not Declare the Great Number Who Have
 Not Paid "DelInquents.'

Little Rock.-The various railroads operating in Arkansas announce they will follow the example of the Iron Mountain and not contest the legality of the. franchise tax law passed by tho last legislature
 The Rock Island paid it's fraichise tax of s2,647 and the Missouri &c North Arkansas paid s3.64s. Last week was the time limit fixed under the law for the payment of the fran chise tax and only about 1900 out of approximately 5000 corporations have so far paid. However. they are paying as fast as they can get acquainted compliance
 For this reason State Treasurer CrockStt is not disposed to declare those fdelinquent' which have not yet paid the tax. He will not declare any delinquent which have paid by the tified lists. This will give margin of possibly ten days or two weeks.
 The law Is new and many of the corporations have had difficulty in get ting an understanding of it," said MT. Crockett. and for that reason think it would be but right to make some al- lowanee. Besides, 1t would be a ma terial impossibility for this office to get all the clerical matter attached to the law attended to by the close of today. I do not think that 1t is either the intention of the law or the desire of the lawmakers to run the corpora tions out of the state, but to let them pay the tax and remain so long as there is a disposition to pay the tax. It is only the corporation that indi- cates disposition to evade the tax that the state is after"

NEW LAWS ARE
 NOW IN EFFECT
Those Measures Containing the Emergency Clause"
 Are Excepted.
NINETY DAYS HAVE ELAPSED
Initiative and Referendum Gave the People Opportunity to Ask Vote
 on Any Measure.

Little Rock.-All bills passed at the regular session of the last legislature excepting the few that contained the emergency clause" have gone into effect.
 This includes all general and special acts to the number of several hundred, as comparatively few contained the emergency clause.
 Among the more important meas. ures are the compromise education statute, the juvenile court law, the state depository act, the law resulat. ing the operation of automobiles, the act requiring plumbers to be licensed, etc, together with scores of laws ap plying to particular counties. cities or communities. relative to stock, game, drainage, etc, the changing of time for holding court in certain districts and the various other subjects that came up for consideration during the 120 days session of the legislature
 The failure of the acts to become operative immediately upon approval
  atiye and referendum amendment to the state constitution, which gives the people sufficient time in which to as. certain whether or not the acts of the legislature, or any of them, should be referred to the people for vote.
 Attorney General Norwood con. strued the constitutional amendment to require the elapsing of 90 days from the end of the legislative session before any legislation could become effective or operative, unless it has the emergency clause attached declar ing that it is for the peace, health ant safety of the commonwealth that the law become effective before the lapse of this time. The bills passed at the extra session of the legislature will not become operative until September 10, unless they are referred to the people in the meantime.

WEALTHY PlTTSBURG AMATEUR PLUNGES INTO PIT IN THE
 AVIATION FIELD.
TOMBSTONE FALLS IN LAKE
Flaws Cause Both Mishaps-propel. Tor on w. R. Badgers Machine Breaks, Johnstone En-
 zine Explodes.

Chicago 1.-Two aviatorS-Will- ian k Badger and St Croix John stone Of Chicago, both young men, l9st their lives at the .ernational aviation meet here.
 In dying. both revealed the frailty Of the craft in which two-score more aviators are curying and gliding about the air, with scarcely a pause for the death of their contempora- r.es
 Death in both cases was due to un- explained accidents, probably the re salts af unsuspecttd defects in the mechanism of the machines, and was iH TO way caused by carelessness nor lack ef responsibility of the drivers.
 Badger. a wealthy youth, eareened to his death in a pit in the aviation field. There had been flaw in one of the wings of the propellers of the Baldwin machine he drove.
 Centrifugal force broke the pro peller. upset the delicate equilibrium of the machine. and Badger dashed In feet To the bottom oof the pit his neck being broken.
 Iohastone fell 300 feet under his engine and was drowned as the result of an equally unsuspected defect. His engine is believed to have exploded. Caught under the heavy engine in the Moisant monopiane, he was carried deep into Lake Michigan and his body uas not brought to the surface until al hour later.
 Badger lived for three-quarters of an hour after he had been extricated from the wreck of his engine. He dld not recover consciousness and died almost at once after he had reached d hospital.
 His death was the first serious ac- cideut of the meet. although thirty five flyers have dipped and glided here for three days and experts say several similar accidents have been narrowly ayerted.
