Gle to Governor Donaghey, copied in

made against me, | herewith publish
the statement made by Ben L. Griffin.

ION and editor of the Conway Times.
ltout an editorial concerning my
self and alleged to have been written
y me and which was published in the
Arkansas Democrat a few days ago.
| WI! state that the original edito
rial was written and published in the
Carlisle Independent some time prior
&c the date mentioned, and without
my knowledge or suggestion The
INST saw of it a clipp ng of the same
was handed me by F. E. Robins, edi-
tor of the Conway Log Cabin Demo-

friend, desired to republish

His statement as to the manner in

the publication of same is false, but is
characteristic of the campaign now
being made against me.

to rest my case with the rank and
file of the party of the whole state.
For one, do not propose to admit that
the standard of Republicanism is SO
low that candidate for office must
prostitute himself to the extent of
endorsing by word of mouth or by
silent acquiescence, against his better
knowledge and better judgment, gross
misdeeds of men in charge of party
machinery.

Big Beast Had to Be Shot In Order to
Save Mans Life

~'S ~~IeSh ''NN W -C SibSS III VI wi w
Save Mans Life.
Howard Quinn, assistant animal
trainer with a carnival company ap-
pearing at Winona, is in a precarious
condition as the result of being at
tackled by Nubian lioness he was
attempting to train. Should blood poi.
son not develop he will likely recover.
In the absence of the regular trainer
Quinn undertook to show he could do
just as we'll. The noness had been
sullen several days and when she saw
stranger in her cage instead of
mounting pedestal at his command
she sprang at the man, catching him
in the side and stripping the flesh
from his ribs. Turning him over she
took his right arm in her powerful
jaws and crushed the flesh and bones.
Attendants sprang to the aid Of
Quinn, but it was seen the only way
to save his life was by killing the
honess, which was done, four shots
being required.

THE COMMON LAW

In many instances works of fiction
lose their true import when adapted
for stage presentations. Not so, how
ever, with regard to Robert W. Cham
bers famously successful book, 1.-The
Common Law" which in the drama
tization has not only preserved all of
the salient features of the authors
purpose but has rather been enhanc-
ed in general interest by the addition
OF number of def touches designed
especially with the object of holding
dramatic interest.
THE Common Law" will have a
hearing upon the stage of the Opera
House on Monday, Nov. 25th, and en-
joys the further distinction of being
a dramatization which, while slightly
deviating from the connected story of
the book, nevertheless giving in min
utest detail the strongest possible
essence relating to the argument Of
fered in defense of the marriage tie.
At the same time there are introduc-
ed certain elements of melodramatic
as well as sensational qualities to
further enhance the story of theatre
cal import
The management in order to give
the production commanding attention
has been most generous in supplying
all the necessary scenic effects in
Guiding the stage furniture, and at
the same time he has not overlooked
the fact that much depends upon an
intelligent Interpretation and in this
regard has assembled a company of
players all of whom may be conf
IDENTIFY relied upon to give a good ac-
count Of themselyes.-(Ad vt)

revolver shot. however, showed how
much in earnest he was and he fell
