blow in the face with the revolver. Scott started after this man and pull ing his revolver, fired at him. Ed Lindsey was evidently waiting for Scott to run out, for, as he began firing at the retreating figure, he rushed on Scott and grappled with him. Lindsey was at the same time shooting at Scott. The Argenta po- liceman finally threw Lindsey and be- fore he could rise shot him. Lindsey shot once after he was down, but the bullet had penetrated his heart and he died within a few minutes. The witnesses to the duel state not word was said other than the calling of Scott to the door.
 Chief of Police McMahon, Constable Jones and Sheriff Roberts, with their assistants, were soon on the scene and took charge of the body and wounded officer. The man who was with Lind sey was permitted to escape by those who saw him rush down the stairway, revolver in hand. The only witness to his part of the deed states he was cross-eyed man, but others claim it was another of the Lindseys.
 The trouble is acknowledged to have been over the Argenta election. Ed Lindsey, formerly a deputy constable in Argenta, was defeated for consta- ble on that side of the river. He be- came involved in number of shoot ings scrapes afterwards, in which his brother, Mitt, killed an Argenta off cer, but was later freed by jury in circuit court on a plea of self-defense. After this difficulty he came to Little Rock. but remained an active worker for his faction in Argenta politics. He was with the anti-Faucette fac ton, which is now very strong in Ar genta. He was very active in the in- terest of w. R. F. Paine, the Demo- cratic nominee for mayor, who was de- feated by J. P. Faucette by seven votes The Democrats managed to elect the balance of their ticket, even though the fight was bitter one, and it was recognized that there would be serious trouble following.

Louaiing the work of their oppon- ents in offensive work, but falling considerably short on the defensive, Hendrix college lost yesterday game to the University of Arkansas, 10 to 6. Heavy hitting on both sides fea- tured the contest, Hendrix gathering F hits for total of 19 scores, while the visitors secured an equal number of safeties for total of Is bases.
 Nine errors by the local collegians tell the story of their defeat, and but for the ragged fielding they would have given the varsity boys close rub for the game. Coach Wilbur ac- counts for the poor field work by the illness of three of the regulars, neces- sitating several shifts in the lineup.
 Although the University took long lead in the early stages of the game, Hendrix fought eamely for scores, and a ninth-inning rally in which five hits netted three runs, aroused great enthusiasm among the rooters Galloway Harrison led both teams in batting, his home-run being one of tho lo~rec+ ever seen at Hen drix park, while he also rapped out two singles.

IMMENSE CROWD
 AT CARNIVAL

All of the attractions were crowded to the doors, which is sufficient evil dence that they have met with the ap- proval of our people.
 The DiXieland Minstrels is as good as most 50 and 75 cent attractions and keeps the audience in a constant up- roar of laughter.
 John J. Stocks big fve-in-one- show, of which Blue Bell'' is the main at traction, is highly commended by ev- eryOne who has seen this wonderful attraction; there being five distinct features in this particular show, among them being Jessie" the hu- man COW, the only one of the kind in the world; Hiram and Major, the largest and smallest horses alive, and Paddy, the handsome donkey, that is a delight for the youngsters. Those. who are lovers of horse flesh and de- sire to witness an attraction out of the ordinary, will not regret paying this show visit. The animals are won- derful freaks of nature and are all in class by themselves
 Baby Ethel has head that weighs 36 pounds; is highly entertaining, smart and brilliant and can be term human encyclopedia.
 Prof. Teeter's congress of wonders is another attraction that will astound the curious.
 A frst-class brass band renders pop ular selections during the evening.
 A very large crowd patronized the carnival last night, in fact, it seemed as if the entire populace of Conway were congregated on the amusement grounds.
