RECEIPT CAUSES TROUBLE.
Frank 5oury Hailed Before County At
tornex for Qamacind School Aousa


A receipt. lost in the school house Of
district No Z, Timber Creek township,
just south Of the city on Center street
a short distance. caused Frank Boury.
aged 90, employed by J. y Baughman.
to be hailed before County Attorney A.
G. Daily Friday Had the school direc-
tors so desired Roury would probably
have been arrested for breaking and
entering the building, serious offense.
When L. S. Gantz. on Nov. 25, gave
Boury a receipt for SO for payment on
note. Roury little thought the re-
ceipt would get him into trouble. We'd
nes6ay night panels Of the school house
door were smashed in. the lock Of the
door was broken and the building was
entered, aitho nothing was stolen from
it. The following morning the teacher
found a bit Of paper on the floor. and
found it TO be receipt. She suspected
1t might be clue. as 1t proved to be.
and gave it to one of the directors OF
the district. He turned it over to Sher-
iff Nicholson. and the latter and his
deputy, Oscar Rosengren. cornered
Boury by means Of 1t and the young
man confessed.
In company with one OF the directors
of the school Boury was taken before
the county attorney, where he again
confessed and implicated another
young man of this city and two girls
the latter being companions on sleigh
ride. The directors had no desire to
prosecute, provided the damage done
the building was repaired, which Boury
willingly promised to do. According to
the county attorney Boury furnished
him the name Of the young man friend
who was with him. and the friend Is
also to be brought before the county
attorney. No charges have been fled
or probably will be filed against either.
There have been frequent depreda-
tions about the grounds and the build
ing has been damaged before by be-
ing broken into.

Baseball was killed dn this country not so many years ago through the same means Greed and sslfishness put the pro fessionafs out of business, but the peoples fondness for the sport en- abled amateur CT nongrofessionai leagues to take up the work end carry it on successfully Its rapid growth and expansion, and the enormous sums invested in it, have made of It an object to inflame cupidity. and the etcries which the rival magnates and OfganlZaUlOnS Iell oii edCn V*noi ots such as to convince the pubic that reformiation is again necessary.

blocks were taken away, after being lifted from i.he street there, and used at another point, and as a result of the unfairness to the residents of that block the street remained open for three months. This was done by En- gineer Hale, who had the contract to repair and rebuild the pavements torn open by the Pine Bluff Natural Gas Company. Engineer Hale should also be ordered Iby Mayer Jordan to clase the brick pavement at the inter section of West Second avenue and Pine Street, whie.l@lhas been open foF many weeks and where several large blanks are used as temporary fil- Ter.
 The Graphic receive another strong endorsement of it's stand against the abuse of raved streets by the city officials and others yester- l day. 6It was from III. N. Atwood the popular agent fer the Iron Mountain ttfFilroad at this place. MI. Atwood ill his letter says:

OUTLOOK IS BRIGHT.

The responsiveness and magnetism of Colonel Theodorf Roosevelt is about to be the undbing of President Taft. In the recent Ohio presidential primary the ex-President induced the people of Tafts home state to turn against him and as a result of Roose- velt's campaign the Oyster Bay idol got away with 25,00O majoity. It now looks as if the Republican party is so badly split that compromise candidate will have to be nominated at the Chicago convention to restore harmony and then it is doubtful if the Roosevelt and Taft supporters will line up solid with the G. o. P.
 In the meantime the Democrats are preparing to put forth the best man that can win from the Republicans. Although Speaker Clark, with his big Congressional machine, is getting the better of Harmon and Wilson in the state primaries, the Democrats have not centered on any enc man and it is believed that the party leaders will carefully weigh the situation before jumping into the sentimental custom of nominating a popular candidate, The so-called popular man does not always prove to be successful can didate. The Clark men and tho Will son men believe that Governor Har- mon is the strongest candidate for President from the Democratic ranks, but are fearing the fight that is Ee- ing made against him by Bryan and other leaders, who are charging that Harmon is a Wall Street selec- ton. Governor Harmon has repeated ly denounced the charge as untrue and unfoundcd and his past official acts, in which he made the Trusts hew to line in Ohio, do not in any way sub stantiate the charge.
 The man who wins the Presidon- tial nomination and the man who can defeat the Republicans ill 1912 mus; carry Ohio and Governor Harmon seems to hold the key to the situa- tion in that state. He captured every one of the delegates and delegates-at- large to the state convention in the recent primary, notwithstanding the fact that the Clark and Wilson forces combined to break into his stronghold there
 The Graphic has always favored Governor Harmon because it believes he is the strongest man in the Dem ocratic party, but it would like to sec lthe good judgment of party leaders at Baltimore prevail, even though

Packing Business
Profits Are Given.

Chicago, Jan. 4.-By-products yield 81
per cent. of the profits in the packing
business. according to figures given by
William D. Miles, formerly general man.
ager of the Armour Packing Co. in Kan
sas City, who finished his testimony, to-
day, in the trial of the 10 Chicago pack
ers charged with criminal violation of the
Sherman law. He gave the company
net profits for 1899 as $202.S75 in the dress
ed beef department, based on the slaugh-
ter of 204, $40 animals.
An analysis of these figures showed
that the company made but three cents
profit on the dressed meat of each steer
killed, but the fat of each animal yielded
a profit of II cents. The profit on hides
was 81 cents head and on the glue man.
ufactured from hoofs it was is cents
The profit from the fat was Ia times
that yielded by the dressed meat, and
the profit from the hides was nearly as
much The money made from glue was
six times as much as that made from the
sale of the fresh meat, according to RI.
Miles Special Counsel Sheean spent sew
eral hours in an effort to compel the wit
ness to admit that these figures We're OBJ
tanned by bookkeeping methods devised
by the packers, but was unsuccessful.

secretary of the National Packing Co,
