 Pine Bluff he passed away at time

 operate it to the advantage of the city and it's people. The magnificent wat erworks and lighting plant that have already been established here by that company. despite it's hardships in be- ing compelled to rebuild the plant
 when 1t was suffering financial los ses. is evidence that the stockh olders of the company have the greatest faith in this cfty's future If they get the street car system they will do even more for Pine Bluffs advance ment. Some people may censure the Pine Bluff Corporation. just as they do all other public service corpora tions. but when we look at 1t Tn @ fair minded way. 1t has done more possi- bly to aid Pine Bluff in its efforts D spread out nha an any other one con- cern in. this city or state Lts office s are practically all home men.

1 The confession Of Rev Clarence '. T Richeson, the Boston minister who admits he aeartIessly murdered Miss Avis Linneil, a pretty Hyannis choir girl, ought to have a good effect on society in general. Rev. Richeson admits that his conscience and re- morse prompted him to make a cean breast Of the whole affair and he wrote the confession voluntarily and without any promise of ciemency or leniency whatever. It was Generally believed that the death of Miss Ln- nell was due to the trfckery and de- eeptIon of Rev. Richeson. But bis friends and admirers believed firmly in his innocence and many Of them refused to believe his confession er- en after It was made known. Rev. R.cAeson was pastor Of one of the most prominent churches in Brook 1! line, fashfonab1 suburb Of Boston. 1 He Is evidently a degenerate Of bhe 1 worst type and when the electric : chair ends his miserable career the world will rid itslf of 8 creature 1t would have been better of without.
