CAMPAIGN AGAINST
SPLITTING COMMENDED
EDITORIAL SAYS
OTHERS SHOULD FOLLOW
FAULKNER'S EXAMPLE.

Referring to the rule adopted for
the first time this year against spit
ting in the Faulkner county court
house, the Arkansas Democrat in an
editorial yesterday highly commends
the movement, saying in part:
THE example ought to be followed
with vigor in every courthouse in the
state, for the sake of health if for no
other reason. If expectorating is ne
cessary, it should at least be done
'decently and in order Nobody, not
even a sovereign voter, has the right
to turn a facial hydrant loose on the
helpless walls and floors of public
buildings, polluting the surface of ev-
erything in sight, and making the
very atmosphere nauseating. The
right to pay taxes doesn't carry with
it the privilege of spreading disease
by needless and unwarranted viola
tons of the common laws of santa
ton. Promiscuous splitting, in court
houses, street cars or other public
places, is a violent trespass upon the
rights of others, and is absolutely in
defensible.
Here's hoping that Conway will
succeed in starting sanitation boom
that will reach all over the rs coun-
ties of Arkansas"

Staining Glass.

The art of colored glass has been
lost and rebound. guarded and stoieD
SO many times during the history 0s
civilization that it seems almost I'm
possible 10 say anything new on glass
staining. Yet a process has been dis
covered for making the stained glass
used In windows which Is q departure
from anything known to the old
timers.
The glass first receives its design in
mineral colors. and the whole Is then

ture Of this method is that the surface

DOG UNCCWERS BODY
OF FOUL PLAY VICTIM

Rapid City, 5, D., Jan, l6.-An in
, quest today over what remains of the
incinerated body of Il man found In
the ruins of a shack which was burned
several weeks ago on the George T.
Bennett place, disclosed no features
upon which can be founded the respon-
sibility for the crime, for a crime
seems unquestionably to have been
committed.
a dog belonging to Anton Becknan,
Of the Rapid City Dairy company, was
found Thursday gnawing at the
foundations of a shack about half q
mile north OF Canyon lake on lane
owner by George p. Bennett. :
Charles Johnson and Alton Schroe-
der later visited the place and in
formed Sheriff Hewett and Coroner
They went out to the site of the shack
yesterday and made a thorough ex-
animation of the premises, bringing
away what is left of the burned re-
mains.
The shack was burned on. or about
the night of November %, at 10 o'clock
in the evening. On that date Mr.,
BeCkman, who has several stacks OF
hay near the creek, vas attracted by a
bright light and walked as far as
where the wagon road crosses the
tracks of the r.. c.. b. II. K w. rail
road. When he saw that his hay was
safe and that the shack at some N
siderable distance was burning, he re-
turned home, thinking that probably
some hunters had gone into the shack
and set it on fire.
Coroner Robinson and Sheriff Re
welt made a careful examination of
the premises and brought away with
them what remains of a body, badly
charred, burned beyond recognition.
The examination of the premises re-
