C0PPEAk WAS
 ACQUITTED
YOUNG MAN CHARGED WITH AR SON IN CONNECTION WITH
 cLAYsRook HOUSE FIRE.
Justice Afford Rendered Decision Al. ter Full Survey of Much Xvi.
 dence Offered B State.

John Coppeak, young man charged with arson in connection with the burning of the old Claybrook house on Park avenue about two weeks ago, was yesterday afternoon acquitted through a decision by Justice Afford, after hearing of the case.
 The principal witness for the state was Flo Barnett. whose evidence was Tn effect that he had discovered the lire and saw Coppeak running away, but in offset to this was evidence to the effect that just after the fire Bar. nett had stated that he had seen some man set the place afire, but did not know who it was. anu thought it was very large man. Coppeak is small man.
 The insurance feature was fully de veloped by Prosecuting Attorney J. E Wood, who represented the state. J. T. Shelton, who owned the furniture in the building. 1t was shown, had two policies of $1,O00 each on the furniture with the J. H. Avery agency. One of these was cancelled by the agency.
 On the afternoon before the fire shelton had called on Rector and Wooten, agents, and stated that a policy had expired on his furniture and he did not want it to go over un- protected for the night, and that W. J. Little agency had not beeh able to write the policy because it was after , o'clock and their stenographer had left the office. so Rector and Wooten wrote and issued the policy. finishing about 6 o'clock The next morning at 2:30 o'clock the fire was discov- cred.
 The matter will probably be in the courts again when the question of pay ing the policies is taken up.
 Coppeak was arrested shortly after the fire, and when the police had made an investigation that led them to believe he should be held for preliminary investigation in court.

CITY ICE PLANT
 DRAWS TAX SUIT
STATE OF ARKANSAS ASKS $3, 71o.ss ALLEGED TO BE DUE IN
 STATE TAXES.
Suit Filed by Little Rock Firm Which It Is believed Is Giving Special At
 tention to These Actions.

In the name of the State of Arkans- as and Hal Norwood 6 firm of Little Rock lawyers yesterday filed an ac- ton against the City Ice Plant of Hot Springs for a sum of back taxes al legged to be due the state in an en- tirety amounting to s3.7lO96.
 But recently the City Ice Plant had endeavored to offset a material raise in it's assessment in this county, and was the plaintiff in a suit to this end, but the suit was lost. This probably called the attention of a Little Rock law firm to the circumstance, which it is said gives special attention to back tax suits.
 It is alleged in the complaint that the property of the City Ice Plant of Hot Springs should have paid taxes on valuation of $55,OOO in 1908 and every year since, and 1t is shown that only the following assessments were made.

Abbeville. Anderson and Oconee
counties are going after the securing

road is under advisement between Alb

Oconee county. This is the roadway
mentioned in The Intelligencer recent
ly and also adds the Abbeville and

The road would commence in Alb
beville and would come through the
Level Land section through Honea
Path and up through this county to
Townville. Then passing the border
of this county into Oconee the road
way would go.
So far as this county is concerned
the roadway is not nov in good shape
and would be admirably suited to the
development planned by the govern
ment.
Governor Blease wrote the 1ntelli-
gencer recently that he would indicate
the roadway in this county when the
money is raised.
Prominent citizens in the county
are new working on the matter and
