 BIGGEST IN STATE 229 TEACHERS ATTENDING COUNTY INSTITUTE IN SES- SION HERE-CLOSES FRIDAY
 AFTERNOON.

That the attendance of the Faulk- ner county teachers institute, which reached 229 today, is the largest in the state, is the belief of County Ex- aminer J. M. c. Vaughter, who is conducting the institute. Last year Faulkner county, with 186 enrolled, was the second largest county in the state, Pulaski leading with POS. Un- less Pulaski has also shown consid- erable increase this year, Prof. Vaughter thinks Faulkner will have the honor of leading in attendance tn s year.
 The institute is also declared to be the most interesting and enthusiastic ever held here. A notable feature has been the evening lectures in ad- ditlon to the regular work Last night Prof. John T. Buchholz of the State Normal science department de- livered an illustrated address on Nj agara Falls, discussing the subject both from a popular and a scientific standpoint.
 The sessions will end tomorrow af- ternoon The following is list of the teachers who were enrolled to- day:
 w. R. Schisler, A. L. Propps, FL sic Harrison, Maibelle Hildreth, Wal ter Boydston, Joe Henderson, Claud Wilkerson, Ruth Bragg, Maude Jar beau, Laura Russ, Willie Mashburn, Monroe Campbell, Dora Albright and 10. D. Langston.

Clark. The senator thought SO. too. and went to the p'atform, icing re- eeived with great applause.
 He proceeded to make strone Democrat c speech, predicted certain victory for the party in November, condemned the Taft Roosevelt row as disgraceful, intimating, however, that it was the best thing that could happen for Democracy Then he spoke of Bryan. He said:
 This man must first give some good reason for calling himself a Democrat before he criticises the Democracy of others"
 It was bomb-shell, delivered in the well-known blunt way of the sen- ator. And the people resented it. The great convent on began shouting itself hoarse for Bryan, interming- ling their ye!ls with more specific calls for Bennett Clark" For ten minutes the senator attempted to talk against the storm, but it was useless. He could not be heard. The people would not permit man who is still their idol to be assailed. Af- ter time the senator sat down and the audience would not be stilled un- the eloquent son of Champ Clark had taken the platform and made a rousing speech of thanks and predic- tion of Democratic victory.

FOR GERY CHARGE
 AGAINST PLUMBER

A forgery, whereby H. c. Eddy, a plumber formerly in the employ of the Drummer Hardware Co. of this city, is alleged to have obtained $85, has just been discovered here. The l forgery is said to have been commit ted about two months ago, when Ed dy cashed the check at the Marion hotel in Little Rock. Eddy. it is stated, was identified at the time by travelling man well known to the hotel management, who d:d not sus- pect the check was not good The check was drawn on the Faulkner County Bank of this city and bore the signature of William J. Grum- mer. It was deposited in a Little Rock bank, and when received here was paid without question, so clever was the forgery MT. Drummer car ries an individual account in the Faulkner County Bank and had not had his pass-book balanced for sever al weeks, until few days ago, when the alleged forged check was return ed to him along with checks he had issued. He at once discovered the signature was not genuine
 MrS Drummer says he is greatly surprised over the matter, as he had a great deal of confidence in Eddy, who worked for his firm as a plum Der until last February.

Little Rock, June 6.-The IS dele gates to the Baltimore convention have been instructed by the practc- Iaiy unanimous acclaim of the Ar anksas state convention to vote for Champ Clark as a unit, practically so long as his name is before the con vention. This action was taken at 5 Ip. m. Wednesday, upon a resolution offered Ly W. G. Hutton of Pulaski, and there was no discussion whatev- CT. The delegates were ripe for it, and nothing that was done saVe the nomination of Joe T. Robinson for governor could have approached it in popularity.
 Immediately after the adoption of the resolution there occurred an incl dent which demonstrated the loyalty of Arkansas Democrats to party leader who has thrice been the nom- mess and been thrice defeated. It was generally known that Bennett Clark, son of Champ Clark, was in the audience, and there were insist ent calls for Clark" Clark" There was some doubt as to whom they meant.

The old steam roller bumped up
against the White Elephants yesterday
and was thrown back for e decided
loss. No use trying to buck the ele-
phant In this double-header stun. Both
games rolled into Connie MsclSs pocket
and the Nationals dropped TO fourth
place in the league standing. The
scores, 4 to 3 and s TO 1 show that two
fierce battles were waged. Fierce
would be putting It mildly, the final
breaker.

They came at critical stages and saved

The second game was won by the
Athletics in the tenth. Washington had
a clean four-run lead when the ninth
opened, but the Mackmen sent over
enough tallies to knot the count in this
inning and jumped into the fight with a
run in the tenth, assuming lead which
could not be cut down.
SOuthpaw Jim Vaughan worked the
opener, and although hit hard early in
the game, settled down and gave a good
account Of himself. Barney Petty pitched
the last game. and up to the ninth held
the White Elephants runless Then he
