DOUBLE WEDDING.
Miss Rica Simmons and Mr. Sam Bunch Married at
 Crystal Wedding
 Celebration.

On Saturday evening at their home on West Cedar Street, MT. and Mrs. o. H. Cooper, who re- gently moved to Brinkley from Tioga, La, to make their per manent home, celebrated their Crystal Wedding, and with the very happy celebration was; the marriage of Mrs. Cooper's sister, Miss Rica Simmons, to MT. Sam Bunch.
 The home was beautifully decorated with a profusion of rare flowers, ferns, etc, while
 the over head was canopied in
 rich colored festooning.
 After the guests had gathered
 the strains of Mendelsohn's s Wedding March was a signal
 which attracted the guests at tention. The brides sisters,
 Mesdames Will E. Jelks of Nc Crory, Tim Shults, o. H. Copper and Mary McNeese of this city, marched into the parlor in ad- vance of the bride and groom. Rev. w. P. Talkington in very short yet impressive service, pro- nounced them husband and wife.
 The bride wore a beautiful silk
 dress which bore most unique and interesting history because of the fact that 1t had been worn
 as the wedding dress of her mother, Mrs. T. c. Simmons, just AS years before and had been worn by the grand mother even prior to that.
 Following the ceremony, the bride and groom and MT. and Mrs. o. H. Cooper who were celebrating their crystal wedding anniversary, stood in line and re ceived the congratulations of the assembled friends.
 Quite a number of beautiful and valuable presents were re- ceived by both MT. and Mrs. Bunch and Cooper.
 Among the out of town guests present were: MT. and Mrs. W. E. Jelks and Master Rukin Jelks,
 of McCrory; Mrs. John Jenkins, of Beebe; Mrs. Olin Deatrick, of Jonesboro; Mrs. Joe McGregor, of Cotton Plant.

Spurious Dollars in
 Brinkley

On Saturday three spurious dollars were passed off in Brink ley.
 Constable Al Rutherford got one of tehem, and says that the "circulator" here was a colored woman, but he could not locate a closer clew.
 In Little Rock the same coin was turned loose freely, as will he roted from the following;
 The Police department has been notified of another lot of spurious silver dollars. The dol lars are of the same variety of those discovered about two weeks ago. The dollars are of the mintage of 1881, and are a good imitation of real money. The coins cannot be told from a genuine dollars by the ring, as the counterfeit money has the same ring as the other. The only difference in appearance is that the bad coins are a trifle thicker than they should be and a shade lighter. They color rap idly when exposed to the air and soon become almost black. Several of the counterfeit coins save been reported from the downtown business houses, during the last three days, and the detectives have begun work on the case. LITTLE ROCK DEM OCRAT.

DENIES PETITION
FOR INJUNCTION.
Citizens Ask Judge Scott to Up
set Westhampton's New
Street Car Schedule.
FASTER SERVICE
Association Still Has Complaint
Pending III Henrico Cir
cult Court.

A petition was presented last nigh,
to Judge r. Carter Scott, of the Hen
rico County Circuit Court, praying
mat he enter an order restraining the
virginia Railway and Power Company
from putting into effect it's new sched-
ule on the Westhampton division to.
day. Because the matter was in such
shape that he could not act he denied
it,
inc paper. which was signed by nu-
merous citizens of Richmond, was pre-
sented by committee, which sought
Judge Scott at his home.
IT is understood that these com
plninants will later make a second an
plication to the County Court. The nc
non was taken individually by citi-
1ens. who were represented by M. III.
omohundro and others
Petition Still Pending.
The Wcsthampton Citizens Associa-
ton still has petition pending in
the County Court asking that the Vir-
sihia Railway and Power Company
De ordered to put into effect better
schedule than it has maintained. This
petition alleges that the railway has
been giving abominable service. An
answer to this was filed Monday nv
counsel for the company. in which
all OF the allegations of the petition
ing organization were den ed in toto
1t set forth that Westhampton was
getting all of the car service to which
II was entitled: that the business Mt
the present time would not be iusti-
fled by making the changes prayed
for.
Residents of Wcsthampton and the
city, including members OF the Coun-
try Club OF Virginia, who pntronize
the suburban line, are of opinion that
they have Jared badly at the hands
of the power company. For a long
whilc war has been waEed against the
railway with a hope of getting more
frequent service TO and from west
hampton. The only result so far will
be the inauguration this morning at
$50 o'clock of service more infrc-
suent than formerly.
New Schedule To-day.
The new schedule, brought about by
an order of the Circuit Court in April,
1910. to become effective at this time,
was published yesterday by the power
company and shows that during the
midday hours and at night instead OF
operating cars at intervals of thirty
minutes they will arrive and depart
every forty minutes. From $3.50 until
10 A. NJ. thirtyminute schedule
will be observed, as will be done from
> to Z p. NJ
This action has ncttled the people
of Wcsthampton, who were in hopes
that during the rush hours they would
be given n fifteen minute service IN
stead of this they will get the old
halfhour schedule during the rush
hours and the forty minute during
the rest OF the day.
However, they have by no means
given up the fight, and intend DO use
every effort. it is understood, to COM
pei the railway to give them what
they want.
