GERMAN AMERICAN
 BUND IN SESSION
HTNDREDS OF DELEGATES AND VISITORS GATHER AT LITTLE
 ROCK FOR CELEBRATION.
Question of AiiiIiating With National Federation is Being Considered
 By Arkansas Society.

Little Rock, Oct. S.--One of the most important matters which will be considered at the meeting of this, the fourth annual convention of the Ger
 man-American Federation, will in all probability be taken up this after noon, at which time it will be decided whether or not the Arkansas organ ization will apply for recognition and membership in the national order of German American Societies. It is generally believed that when the matter is brought, up at the conven- ton action favorable to joining the national organization will result.
 About two hundred delegates had arrived and Were-preScnt when the meeting was called to order this morning at 10 a. m. by President Chas Heinrich of Little. Rock, but it is expected that more delegates will arrive on later trains today. Among the delegates who were present at the session this morning were c. Boiling CT and A. M. Scholze of Fort Smith, Wm. DeClerk of Pocahontas, r. Spinnenvech of Pocahontas, Rev. J. A. Haas and Paul Bellinger of Morrill, ton, Rev. F. Placidus of Altus and II. Obertse of Hartman.
 Routine business occupied most of the morning, and reports of most of the outstanding committees were heard. The applications of the local clubs at DeQueen and Conway for into the State organiza- tion were considered and it was de- cided to accept the applications.
 The German-American Federation of Arkansas has 5S branches, and be- tween four and five thousand mem- bers. After adjournment of the morn- ing session at noon today, luncheon was served, in typical German style in the dining rooms of the TuNne: hall, where the convention is beina held, and the delegates and many visi' tors to the convention are unanimous in declaring that the convention pro- misses to be one of the most successful in the history of the organization.
 Tonight there will be an elaborate program of entertainment, including the presentation of German play.

BOOK CASE ARGUED.
Supreme Court Expected to Hand
Down Decision Soon.

The mandamus suit against the
state textbook commission in the mat
ter of split" series in readers and
Biographies was argued in. the SUI
preme court today and a decision is
expected soon. John Dawson, attor-
ney general, appearing for the COM
mission and in defense of its selection
of the split series, made the point
that the commission acted within its
powers and selected books up to the
requirements and that therefore the
effort to mandamus the commission
was based principally upon techni-
cality. -...-
The action was brought to test the
legality of the commissions action in
selecting split series of readers and
Biographies, which is to sa by differ
ent authors and publishers. The first,
second and third readers selected by
the commission are Wooster books,
and the fourth and fifth readers are
issued by a Nebraska publishing firm.
The primary geography is published
by one firm and the intermediate
geography by another firm. The ac-
ton was brought to compel the text
book commission to reassemble and
select readers all by one author and
Biographies all by one author.
A basis for the suit is opinion by
former Attorney General GODDARD de-
livered ten years ago to the effect that
books should be selected in uniform
SERIES Dawson contended that the
opinion of an attorney general was not
of necessity final and absolute. He
cited the case of Chief Justice John
ston of the supreme court who had, as
Justice, reversed an opinion that he
(Johnston) had delivered on a school
land case while attorney general twen-
ty-f1ve years ago. Dawson also argued
that the word uniform" as applied to
the books by the law might we'll mean
Uniform use as uniform series.
The attorney general declared in his
argument that if the contentious of
the petitioners were upheld by the
court that the decision would tie the
hands of the textbook commission and
1T could no longer be free to select
what it regarded as the best books
presented by bidders. Further, that
there was in the petition no allegation
of fraud or lack of legal requirements
of the books selected, but rather that
they were not written by one author,
thus basing the suit on technicalitY.

MRS. GEO. W. REED WINS
Topeka Woman Awarded $4,000 by
Ohio Court for Injuries.

For injuries received IL years ago if
a Baltimore & Ohio railway wreck. Mrs.
George W. Reed, of Topeka, was today
awarded $4,000 damages by a jury III
the United States district court of Gin
cinnati. Major A. NJ. Harvey, who
prosecuted the case for Mrs. Reed, re-
ceived a telegram this afternoon an
nouncing the decision of the jury.
Mrs. Reed was among several other
passengers who were seriously injured
in a big wreck on the Baltimore & Ohio
road in 1901. A few months after the:
wreck suit was filed in the federal court
by the late David Overmyer, who then
represented Mrs. Reed. Judgment for
S25, 900 damages was asked.
Since the filing of the suit. many of
the members of the defendant COM
panys crew, and several officials have
died. The case was continued from
time to time and was never brought to
trial until this week. Major Harvey re-
turned to Topeka last night after
spending more than four days in Gin
cinnati in the trial of the case. He
expressed himself as pleased with the
amount of judgment and believed that
it would be sustained if carried to the
circuit court of appeals.

MUST PAY Up.
Commercial Club viii Post Delinquent
Members.

If recommendations made today by
the membership committee of the
Commercial club are adopted by the
board of directors the names of all
members of the organization who are
six months in arrears for dues Will be
posted in a conspicuous place.
The membership committee is of the
opinion that strictly business principles
should be applied in connection with
the collection of dues. Lodge organ
izations adopt the system of posting
names of delinquents, and the com
mittee believes that it would be ad-
vantageous for the directors to put in
a similar plan.
All delinquents will be allowed 80
days in which to pay their dues before
the names are posted, according to the
recommendation of the committee.
When a name has been posted for two
months the member will cease to be
considered as such.
"Too many people treat the Com
mercial club as free public perform
ance" said Secretary J. Will Kelley,
this afternoon. I'VE must apply busi-
ness principles
The committee under George Cod
frev. Moore also recommends to the
board of directors that the regular $40
Initiation fee be maintained, and that
former members of the club be re-
quired to pay So as fee for rein

NO NORTH SIDE PAVING
Curtis Street Can Not Be Improved
Now.

Judge Whitcomb today held that
the Rock Island Railroad company is
resident petitioner in the applica-
ton for the West Curtis street paving
and granted an injunction against the
city to stop the laying of brick. The
question of the Rock Islands resi-
dence as a petitioner was raised by
Thomas Lillard, attorney for
George Kimmerle, petitioner for an
injunction.
Some months ago petitions were
circulated for the paving of Curtis
street west from Kansas avenue to
the Kuehne preserving plant. Among
the petitioners were the Rock Island,
which owns property in the district.
Application was then made to enjoin
the letting of the paving contract by
the city. Lillard commended that be
cause of the roads purchase of the
old C. K. & n. railway, that it be-
came a resident petitioner. His con-
tention was upheld by the court and
Curtis street will not be paved this
summer
