BATESNILLE ANGLERS HAV-
ING GREAT TINE ON WHITE
RIN Err.

Batesville. June 15.-Since Sunday
more than 1000 fish, principally
white or striped bass, have been
caught by local anglers at Lock Dam
No. /, one-half mile below this city
on White river. James Swain, who
claims the local championship as a
fisherman, caught, by actual count,
on Tuesday, l0S small bass between
$50 and 1890 o'clock. Wednesday
morning he captured string of al
most as large number, on both days
using single steel rod and reel.
Scores of devotees of the rod and reel
are flocking to the dam this week to
take advantage of the biting season"
of the White river bass. Live min
nows in profusion may be picked up
with a small net on the abuttments
of the dam, and so there is no scare
ity of live bait.

CONDUCTOR BLAMED
FOR BOYS DEATH
G.. II. TUCKER HELD AS RESULT
OF KILLING OF BASIL }.
HOWELL.

Little Rock, June l4.-Immediately
after the coroner's jury last night
rendered a verdict that Basil j..
Howell came to his death by gunshot
wounds from a weapon fired by part
les unknown to the jury Deputy
Prosecuting Attorney . NJ. f. Duna-
way filed information against c. H.
Tucker on a charge of manslaughter
before Justice Frank Martin.
Tucker was in charge of the West
Ninth street car from which Basil
Howell was al.ghting at Sixteenth
and High streets, when he was shot
and fatally wounded, Wednesday
night. Mr.. Dunaway ordered his ar
rest on the presumption that Tucker
in firing at Blake Caswell, a negro,
who had been throwing stones at the
street car, accidentally shot and
wounded Howell. Caswell was cap
tured by Patrolmen Long and Hard
ing in an alley near Sixteenth and
Pulaski streets as he was running
from the scene of the shooting. Cas-
well was at first charged with the
crime, but the officers do not now be-
lieve that he fired any shots.
Tucker gave bond in the sum of
50 900, which was signed by Gus
Fulk, one of his attorneys, and his
preliminary hearing will be held at
10 o'clock Saturday morning in JUS
tice Martins court.

WILSON men NOW
FEEL MORE HOPEFUL
MANAGER M'COMBS CHEERS
ARKANSAS SUPPORTERS IN
STATEMENT.

Little Rock, June l3.-Local sup
polters of Governor Woodrow Will
son, Tor a time discouraged by the
Champ Clark avalanche, are begin
ming to feel more hopeful with the
Gains sent out from Wilson head
quarters, that he has really few
more instructed votes than the Mis-
sourian. Members of the Wilson
clubs throughout the state have re-
ceived letters from his manager, w
NJ. McCombs, formerly of Arkansas
in which he says:
Recent developments throughout
the country, especially Governor Will
sons overwhelming victory in New
5elsey coupled with the practical vic
tory in Ohio and the grand success
in Minnesota, Texas, South Dakota
and other states, have been a source
of great encouragement TO friends
everywhere. They clearly indicate
that Democrats throughout the coun-
try realize the vital necessity of NOM
mating a candidate with whom the
party can reasonably be assured of
victory in November.
Party leaders now have clear
exposition of the facts and we are
hopeful of seeing a serious and delib-
crate body at Baltimore which VIII
grasp it's opportunity and nominate
Woodrow Wilson. who will not only
insure Democratic victory, but will
give to the country a chief executive
of the soundness, scholarship and
grasp and ability of Thomas Jeffer-

AMENDMENT FOR
RECALL HAS JOKER
OFFICIALS CAN'T BE REMOV-
ED WITHOUT SIGNATURES
IN FIVE COUNTIES.

Little Rock, June Provisions
have been discovered in the recall
amendment to the constitution, to be
submitted to the people in the Sep
TENDER election, which it is declared,
will make it impossible for an official
of a county or township to be recall
ed unless petitions bearing the sig
natures of citizens of five counties
are secured.
Secretary Of State Hodges received
a letter yesterday from w. A. Black
Of Fort Smith, former representative
from Sebastian county, calling atten-
ton to this fact, and asking that it
be corrected. Mr. Hodges stated in
reply that the matter had been called
to his attention, but that he had no
authority to change the petitions as
filed and could do nothing but have
the proposed amendment printed as
| it was prepared by those who sought
its initiation.
The proposed amendment provides
that in seeking the recall of any
state official the petitions shall bear
signatures equal in number to not
less than II per cent of the entire
vote cast for all candidates for such
office in the preceding election and
that the petitions must be circulated
! in az least five counties
The amendment further states that
petitions for the recall of any county,
township, city or town official, or OF
any road overseer or school director,
shall be prepared, circulated, signed
and verified in the same manner as
provided for state officials.
Another section of the amendment
provides that until otherwise provid-
ed by law, the legislative body of any
city or incorporated town may pro-
vide for the manner of exercising the
recall powers, but makes no other
provision for the circulation of petit
tons for county or township offices.
1t is contended that as the amend
ment stands, any petition asking for
the recall of a county or township
official would have to be circulated in
five counties.

DR.. l.. Hogan, who says he is vet
Urinary surgeon of Conway, was fin
ed $50 and costs in Justice of the
Peace Ivy's court yesterday, on a
charge of obtaining money under
false pretense. Hogan said he was a

fact that the outfit was bogus, and
the arrest followed. Not being able

TRUSTEES WILL HOLD
ADJOURNED MEETING
BOARD TO CONSIDER UNINERS-
ITY PRESIDENCY AT LITTLE
ROCK JUNE &c.

Little Rock, June 14-An adjourn
ed meeting of the University board
of trustees is to be held in the gov
errors office in Little Rock June 26
At that time it is probable that at
least progress will be reported on the
selection of a new president of the
University After the declinatlon of
Judge John n. Tillman to be consid-
cred as an applicant, and his consent
to serve until his successor is elected,
the matter was placed in the hands
of a special faculty committee con-
sisting of Profs. Droke and Carroll,
and the teachers committee consist
ing of Messrs. Cook, Reid and Hill.
The presidency was discussed only
tentatively, but it appeared to be the
sent.me of probably majority of
the board that an effort should be
made to secure one of the biggest
university men in the country, even
if it be necessary to pay him as much
as $4,000 a year The sub-commit-
tee is looking about the country for
available material, and viii not act
hastily. 1t is not to be considered a
political job, and the progressive
members of the board consider that
no man is too big for the place.

CHOCTAW MANS HAIR
QUICKLY TURNS GRAY

From Thursdays Daily.
Porter Eubanks, living near Choc-
taw, Van Buren, county, recently had
eczema. In two days after taking
the disease his hair began falling out
and in less than a week he was bald,
according to a recent dispatch from
that place. TO the establishment of
all the new growth of hair that soon
began to appear was as white as cot
ton. Mr. Eubanks is only 33 years
old, but this sudden change in his APP
pearance makes him appear very old
and his most intimate friends fail to
recognize him at any distance. Mr..
Eubanks formerly had jet black hair
and of very coarse texture, and the
new growth is fine and silky.

Little Rock, June 18-When the
board of trustees of the University of

two names will be considered. Presi-

the educators between whom the

J For some months the board of trus-

ident Mitchell did not make an ap-
plicatiOn, but members of the board
opened negotiations with him, and

Arkansas if he could better his con-
dition by so doing
Until a few days ago it was not

Der of the board has satisfied himself
that Chancellor kirkland has COM
pleted the work he started out to do
years ago for Vanderbilt, and that if
he was elected to the presidency of
the University of Arkansas, he would
accept the position.
There is no fixed salary for the
president OF the y nlVerSlty OF Afkdn-
sas, though for some years the pos
ton has carried with it yearly sal

is aware Of the fact that neither of
the educators under consideration
could be secured for this amount, yet
the members believe that the best is
cheap at any price, and it is proba-
Bile that 81 800 will be offered the man
to whom the position is rendered.
There have been at least dozen
applications filed for the position of

many places until after the selection
