CITY BEAUTIFUL
 MEMBERS BUSY

Members of the City Beautiful As- sociat:on have not fallen asleep, but are going over the city with eyes wide open, judging from the number of complaints they have filed during the past few days with Mayor w. H. Duncan. They charge that the busi- ness streets, which were kept in good order for while following the or ganization of the association, are al ready becoming unsightly again, and ask the mayor to assess a few fines for carelessness in this respect, in or der to show that it is a violation of the city ordinances. Other offenses to which the association calls atten- tion are the rank growth of weeds and grass on many sidewalks and streets, the unkempt condition of the railway right-of-way and the condi- tion of stone sidewalks, which have sunk too low in the ground and are covered with grass and dirt.

Little Rock, June 13.-At last the late U. S. Senator James K.

Prof. New berry has had access to his private papers and correspondence, as we'll as public documents, and his work is therefore complete and accurate. He has already written and published the life of former Senator Augustus H. Garland, and plans to write the lives of others of Arkansas distin- guished men.

 STREET CAR.

Little Rock, June 13.-As he step- ped from the rear of inbound West Ninth street car No. 253 about 11:15 o'clock last n;ght at Sixteenth and High streets, Basil J. Howell, aged l9, an employe of the Overcast Tail bring Company, living at 1415 Ches- ter street, was shot above the right eye by a negro, receiving a wound from which he died at 2:15 this morning. Blake Caswell, a negro, was placed under arrest by Patrol men Hooper Long and J. c. Hard ing, immediately after the shooting. The officers had to clug Caswell into submission. Running from the scene of the crime, east on West Sixteenth street, the negro passed Patrolmen Long and Harding at Sixteenth and Pulaski streets, and was pursued by the officers.
 After running through alleys and yards, the negro was finally overtak- en by the officers and when an at tempt was made to handcuff him he fought viciously. Patrolman Hard ing clubbed him with the butt end of his revolver and succeeded in placing the handcuffs on the negro. When the negro passed the officer he had a revolver in his right hand, but when captured he had no weapon.

FINE RAIN ENDS
 MONTHS DROUTh

The drouth of months duration was broken here this morning by a fine rain, which will be of incalcula- ble benefit to growing crops and a great relief from the dust. Accord ing to Prof. Burr's guage, nearly two inches fell here, the parched ground rapidly soaking up the moisture as it fell. The rain was apparently gener- al, although report from May flower is to the effect that the pre- cipitation was very slight there.

MANY MENTIONED
 10 HEAD VARSITY
RADICAL CHANGE TALKED
PROF. J. H. REYNOLDS AMONG THOSE SUGGESTED TO SUC-
 CEED PULLMAN.

Possibilities of radical changes in the management and the policies of the University of Arkansas are seen in the selection of the new president to take the place of Judge John N. Illlman, who has just rendered his resignation, according to a story in this mornings Gazette. As the most important step toward the inaugura- ton of movement intended to bring about a complete reorganization, which has been considered by some of the members of the board of trustees, It IS known, the selection of some widely known educator from outside the state to head the institution is believed to be possibility.
 Certain members of the board, as well as many of the alumni of the university, have taken the position, it is said, that the time is now ripe to take long stride toward placing the institution on plane with the best universities in the country. They be- lleve that the sentiment of the state is strongly in this direction and that any movement looking to this end will meet with support from the peo- pie
 Those who have taken this view of the matter believe that the first thing to be done to bring about the desired end is to place in charge of the university the strongest man that can be found in the country. They contend that the size of the salary which would have to be paid to such a man, should not stand in the way. as the results that would be obtained would be worth the added cost to the institution.
 1t is thought that the board of trustees will consider this proposal before deciding upon the man who will succeed Judge Tillman. The names of number of Arkansas edu- cators have been mentioned in con nection with the presidency in case the board decides to look for a man at home instead of going outside the state. Prof. John H. Reynolds, pro- lessor of history in the university, has been urged for the position by a large number of the alumni. Several other members of the faculty have also been mentioned, including Prof. J. c. Futrall and Prof. c. H. Brough. pr. Henry s. Hartzog, for mer president of Ouachita College, is also regarded as one of the possibil- ities. Dr. Hartzog is now connected with a St. Louis publishing house. pr. Hartzog was succeeded as presi- dent of the university by Judge Till man.
 Prof. John H. Hinemon, former state superintendent of public in- struction, and later president of Hen derson College, has also been men, toned in connection with the uni versity presidency.
 It is thought that the board of trustees, which has been in session at Fayetteville this week, will adjourn to meet in Little Rock at later date, possibly within the next week. It is not believed that any action will be taken toward the selection of presi- dent until the board meets here.
