The Endowment Board met in
Chattanooga Immediately after the
adjournment of the Grand Lodge.
Prof. w. s. Thompson, of Nashville,
was elected president and Prof. A.
Thos. Hill reelected secretary. The
report made by Secretary Hill was
a very exhaustive one, showing con-
clusively that he had given thought
and attention to the affairs of his
Office. The financial statement shows
that $~36,045.7S has been received, and
$15,9S9.91 disbursed during the past
year; total amount on hand July 1,
1911, was $32.496.37.
The order has no cause to be
ashamed of the record of its endow-
ment secretary. He is ranked by
those who know him as a shrewd man.
The entire jurisdiction in Tennessee
should take off their hats to Prof
A. Thos. Hill, who is a veritable
watch dog of its treasury.

nlCClNBOIhAM IS
OUT FOR SHERIFF
Well Known Officer Announces Can
dfdacy to Succeed the Late w. D.
Preston of Desha.

w. D. Higginbotham, one of the
best known residents of Southeast
Arkansas and one of the best officers
of this section of the state, has an
nounced as a candidate for sheriff of
Desha county to fill the vacancy caus-
ed by the recent tragic death Of w, D,
Preston. The special election, called
for the purpose of electing Preston's
successor, will be held the coming
month and Mr.. Higinbotham is the
last of five candidates to announce
for the place.
Mr. Higginbotham is a resident of
Desha ounty and has been active in
official circles of various Southeast
Arkansas counties for eighteen years.
He is at present special officer in the
Iron Mountain service and is regarded
as one of the most competent and eff
ficient men in criminal work in this
state. He was formerly deputy
sheriff under former Sheriffs C. M.
Philpot and James Could, was at one
time connected with the Pine Bluff
Police Department and won an envi-
able record as deputy under Con-
stable Frank Stewart, of this city, for
several years.
Mr.. Higinbotham has been a life
long Democrat He is competent
clerical man and as an officer his re-
cord is not surpassed by men in GRIM
inal work anywhere in the south. He
was a bosom friend of the late Desha
county sheriff and if elected he will
carry out the same policy adopted by
that official during his ten years SER
wee in the sheriff's office at Arkansas
City. Mr.. Higginbotham is. known to
every man in Desha county. He has
worked in that county for some years
as an officer of the law and his popu-
larity is generally admitted.
In recent years Mr.. Higginbctham
has distinguished himself in capturing
q number of the most notorious GRIM
inals who ever operated in Southeast
ArkoMsas. He is conservative and
fearless N the discharge of his duty
would make an admirable official
+ elected The Graphic recommends
his candidacy to the voters of Desha
county for their consideration.

when he admitted on examination
that he had spoke OF the case day
before yesterday to Harry Chandler.
manager of the Times and son-in-
law Of General Otis.
Il told him was a. prospective
Juror in the Mcnamara CASE" said
Clark to Mr.. Davis, of counsel for
What did he say to your asked
Davis.
the defense, who was examining him.
'4He said he hoped l would qualify"
answered Clark.
THAT will do!' interrupted Judge
Bordwell angrily. What do you
mean by talking of this case when
you were instructed not to talk of
it?'
Clark said that he had not consid-
cred that talking of the case but
the court excused him at once, de-
claring he did not want a man on
the jury who could be so careless as
to talk to anyone of any feature of
the case after he had had the in
structions of the court.
Tonight the attorneys for the de-
Tense are saying that Chandler ought
t. be cited for contempt, but it is
apparent the court does not regard
the remark to the juror as serious
enough an offense to call for such
| proceedings.
Clark had admitted to a leaning to
the gas theory of the destruction of
the Times building, based on a de-
elaration his son had made that he
passed the building on a street car
the night of the explosion and had
smelled gas which apparently came
from the building The son is a
teacher in the Pomona school and
doubtless he will be brought into
the case by the defense in support o:
it's attack on the dynamite theory
of the prosecution.
But four talismen are left outside
Of the jury box Of the original We
nire and there are three vacancies in
the box. A new venire probably will
be drawn the first thing in the
morning.
F. ]. Mullin, who was challenged
for cause by the defense during the
morning session, the challenge be-
ing resisted by the state, and is still
in the box. The court withheld this
ruling and probably will give it to-
morrow morning. Mullin admitted
he believes that Mcnamara is guilt,
and that the building was destroyed
by dynamite, but he says he can ac1
fairly as juror. The court mus
decide whether to admit this state
ment and qualify the juror. In the
meantime Clarence Darrow introduc-
ed as exhibits the report of the
Mayors commission on the cause Of
the explosion and a copy of AIcMan-
igal's confession, which was printed
IN, the Los Angeles Examiner, two
of the documents of which Mullin
based his opinion. It is the attor-
ney's evident intention to claim err
ror in this instance, on appeal for a
new trial. if Judge Bordwell rule:
that Mullin is qualified and denies
the challenge.
