OP|E RE|D IN
LITTLE ROCK

Little Rock, Nov. 25.-Two distin-
guished visitors dropped into the city
yesterday and spent the day together
at the Hotel Marion and at the Qua
paw Club, guests of George r. Brown,
secretary of the Board of Trade. They
were Opie Read, the Chicago novelist,
humorist, lecturer and former report
err of Little Rock, and Al Jennings, re-
formed train robber and politician of
Oklahoma. Opie had. been lecturing
in Al's town over in the sister state,
and so AL accompanied him to Little
Rock just to spend the day, returning
home today. Opie went on today to
Hope, where he will lecture tonight.
Opie Read expressed the sincerest
qualification at the growth of Little
Rock, which he declared had become
one of the foremost cities of the
southwest. He reminisced consider
ably of the days when he was a re-
porter on the Arkansas Gazette, when
the city was just emerging from the
swaddling clothes of an over-grown
village. He has great faith in Arkan-
sas and love for the state, and says
that he has never written anything
that slandered it or it's people. His
critics simply have not understood
him, that is all. He does a great deal
of literary work now, and has just
finished new book, which will be out
in the spring. 1t is not named yet.

M'COMBS DENIES
PATRONAGE REPORT

Little Rock, Nov 20.-Several pa
pers printed a dispatch from Fort
Smith Sunday stating that Frank Nc
Combs, chairman of the Democratic
national committee, and close friend
of President-elect Woodrow Wilson,
had stated that he would control the
Arkansas patronage under the incom-
ing national administration on ac-
count of being a native of the state.
kilograms were received in Little
Rock yesterday from Mr. McCombs
denying the statement in toto, saying
that no one had authority to make
such a statement. He said he would
like to knox the name of the man who
wrote the article, in order that he
could denounce him personally
through the public press.

INTERESTING QUESTION
IN SUPREME COURT

Little Rock, Nov. 22.-An interest
ing question has been put up to the
supreme court from Jackson county.
Pearl Lawler sued her husband, John
Lawler, on a promissory note for mon
ey loaned him, amounting to $1,000. A
demurrer was interposed on the
ground that, "under the laws of Mis-
souri,, as we'll as Arkansas, husband
and wife have no legal capacity to so
contract, and such contract is Their
eforSg void and un-enforcible at law,
and plaintiff wife has not capacity to
sue defenadnt husband. This demurrer
was sustained by the lower court, from
which'ruling the wife appeals.

TUBERCULOSIS FUNDS
HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED
COUNTIES WILL MAINTAIN THE
SIXTY-ONE PATIENTS IN
HOSPITAL.

Little Rock, Nov. 23.-The state tu-
berculosis commission yesterday filed
it's report with the governor. The in
stitution on November 1 had 81 pa
tients in the hospital. The report
says:
The appropriation, 100000, for the
maintenance of the institution granted
by the last legislature, is now exhaust
ed, but through the appropriations
made by the counties will be able to
continue and will not be forced to
close. Each county pays SIS per week
toward the upkeep of each patient
sent from that respective county, and
this fund amounts to about $1,000 a
month. This, however, is paid in
county scrip, which is very seldom re-
deemed at par value. The appropria-
ton exhausted September IT,"

INTEREST In s. |. A.
is ON THE INCREASE

Little Rock, Nov. 20.-Miss Eva
Reichardt, state organizer of the S. l.
A. and connected with the educational
department of the state government,
has returned from Hot Springs, where
she remained the week of the fair in
charge of the department exhibit.
Miss Reichardt was on duty about Is
hours daily and explained to many
thousands the work of her depart
ment She states that many of the
counties came and saw they had~no
exhibit and went home to take the
matter up with the county superin-
tendent to see why. Miss Rechardt
expects this spirit to arouse the coun-
ties which were not represented this
year, and make the exhibit of next
year double what it was in 1912. Miss
Rechardt is highly pleased with the
interest manifested in her work, and
received many promises of new school
improvement organizations as soon as
the fair visitors returned to their
homes.

"Dr. Millar is one of the leading
educators of the south. He is taking
advantage of little leisure to visit
some of the leading institutions in the
south, following the meeting of the
Association of Southern Colleges and
Preparatory Schools at Spartanburg,

DR.. Millar counted the State Normal
College as worthy of a visit.

Millar made an admirable address to
the faculty and students, mainly on
the subject of educational values.
While this is an old subject, DR.. Mil

500 men SEEK THE
MURDERER OF GIRL
DEAD BODY OF DAUGHTER OF
GEORGE BARHAM FOUND
NEAR GER HOME.

Harrison, Nov. 23.-Five hundred
men are searching for the man or men
who last night criminally assaulted
and murdered Olive, the 18-year-old
daughter or George Barham, a farm
er, who resides near Pleasant Ridge,
10 miles east of Harrison. The MUIR
der was the most atrocious in the his
tory of northwest Arkansas and, that
the brutes will be lynched if found
seems to be foregone conclusion
judging Yrom reports received from
the Pleasant Ridge district.
Sheriff Helm of Harrison and Depu-
ty Jones are searching the mountains,
assisted by hundreds of heavily-arm-
ed men.
The horribly mutilated body of the
girl was found yesterday morning by
some hunters whose dogs led them to
the corpse, which was found on the
side of a small mountain. The lower
limbs had been severed from the body,
the head split in two and the body cut
in two. She also was decapitated.
From appearances the fiends had made
an effort to cut the body to aid them
in concealing 1t.
The girl left home late Thursday to
go to Pleasant Ridge for her father
mail. She was mounted When she
did not return at late hour, the fam
lily became uneasy and a search was
instituted. The body was found at an
early hour yesterday morning. The
girl had been dragged from her horse
and was assaulted in fence corner.

NEGRO ATTEMPTS
TO ROB HOUSE

From Saturdays Daily.
Friday night at late hour Miss
DoIlie Payne, who lives with her pa
rents at the Faulkner county Jail, was
awakened by a noise made by some
one raising the window to her room.
She screamed and aroused the family.
Her brother, Will Payne, shot at ne
gro fleeing from the window. That
the negro was hit, and perhaps Sc
riously wounded, was evidenced by a
trail of blood for 40 or so feet leading
from the building. 1t was found that
the screen had been cut from the win
dow, and an entrance would-soon have
been effected if the noise had not
aroused Miss Payne. The affair was
kept quiet yesterday, as the officers
are on a still hunt for the guilty
party, and as they have pretty good
description of the man, his arrest will
be but question of time.

NORMAL HENDRIX
ON THANKSGIVING
FOURTH ANNUAL GAME
TEAMS MORE EVENLY MATCH
ED THAN EVER BEFORE
STRUGGLE ANTICIPATED.
From Fridays Daily.

From Fridays Daily.
ARRANGEMENTS are under Roadway
for the fourth annual game of foot
ball between the Normal and Hendrix
elevens, to be played on Hendrix field
Thanksgiving Day. AS there will be
no game in Little Rock on turkey day,
it is thought a large crowd will witness
the game. All business houses will
be closed and the business men will
have chance to see the game. AS
all the games played here this sea-
son have been played on Saturday
they have not had an opportunity OF
seeing football game this year, and
it is believed that all lovers of the
sport will witness this game.
The Normal has the best team in
its history this year. They have
perfect record, three games played
and three games won. 1t is very prob
able that the Normal will furnish
some material for the all-Arkansas
team this year, as they have some OF
the best footbaA men in the state on
the team.
In Brooks, the Normal has one of
the best centers N Arkansas. He was
a few days late N starting, but got in
the first game and has made an envia-
BILE record for hiaaself. He has starred
in every game the Normal played this
year. Two of Normal's victories are
largely due to his work. He has a
way of getting through the oppon,
ents' line and getting the man before
he makes any gum. This is Brooks
third year with the Normal
Browning, at end, is also star. He
is fast and hits hard He is especially
good in receiving forward passes, ano
never fails to kick a goal after a
touchdown is made. He is playing the
third year on the. team.
The Normal has quartet of back
field men in Webb, Davis, Covingtor
and Stubs, that any team in the state
would be proud TO possess. They are
all fast, nervy. strong, and hit haro
when necessary They are expected
to put up a game fight for the turkey
day game.
The Hendrix team, while not in as
good condition as it was before the
Ouachita game, is still able to put up
a good fight, and they will give the
Normalites the best that IS in them on
Thanksgiving Day.
Hendrix has won every game play
ed between these institutions hereto
fore, but this year the teams are more
evenly matched and the Normal team
is confident that the tables will be
turned Thanksgiving.
Both teams are practicing hard and
will be in the best shape possible when
they clash next Thursday.

every angle and pulled off several
startling plays. The entire team from
