INTERESTED IN PARKWAYS
NEW PRESIDENT OF HENDRIX
COLLEGE ADVOCATES SYS-
TEN FOR COLLEGES.

With a view to obtaining park
way system for educational institu-
tons in Arkansas, DIR. J. H. Rey-
nolds, president Of Hendrix College
at Conway, yesterday asked the
Chamber of Commerce for plans con-
corning the project. DR.. Reynolds al
so mentioned the value of commune
eating with John Nolen, landscape
gardner, and having him visit Con-
way on his next trip to Little Rock.
The letter was referred to the Park
way Association, who will take up the
matter with Mr.. Nolen.
DR.. Reynolds says the management
of Hendrix College is cooperating
with other colleges in the parkway
movement, and while possibly the
plan could not be worked out immedi-
ately upon it's adoption, yet the
grounds of the various colleges could
be improved with the plan in view

RESIGNATION AS
Head WITHDRAWN

Little Rock, Aug. 5.-Adjutant Gen.
eral B. w. Green, who has served as
the head of the Arkansas National
Guard since the Inauguration of Gov
ernor G. w. Donaghey, and who pre-
scented his resignation to the governor
as soon as the legislature declined to
make its usual appropriation for the
of the guard, has re-
quested Governor Futrell to permit it's
withdrawal, and the governor COM
piled.
The resignation was rendered at the
time when it seemed there was no
hope to save the Guard, but the Gov
ernor requested that it be held up to
see if there was not some way to pre-
vent it's dissolution. The plans which
have since been worked out, under the
leadership of Gen. Greene, were then
suggested and all went to work with
out a thought of the resignation. Now
there is to be change of Governors,
and Gen. Greene did not feel like hav-
ing his resignation on file, with things
working so smoothly in the Guard,
unless the new official desired to make
a change, and for that reason asked
that it be withdrawn. Gov. Futrell
has at all times refused to consider
the resignation.

MOOSE RENDERS OPINION.

Little Rock, Aug. 5.-Attorney Gen.
eral w. l.. Moose today rendered an
opinion regarding the inheritance tax,
by which he holds that the state taxes
are to be deducted from the entire es-
tate of the deceased, instead of wait
ing to let the heirs pay upon the por-
ton received by them.
This decision means saving for
the state in the settlement of num-
Der of estates. Minor heirs are per-
mitted exemptions of $4,000, and in an
estate where there are both adults and
minor heirs, the state would thus be
much loser, if the division be first
made and the minor heir permitted to
deduct his $4,000.

Rock. Simms was taken back for a
trial at a special term Of the court,
Saturday, and on the way made con-
fession of his guilt.
After the conviction Prosecuting
Attorney Read telephoned Attorney
General w. L. Moose as to the manner
in which Simms should meet his
death. AS the crime was committed
after June Is, when the law went in
to effect, he was advised to have the
negro sentenced to electrocution. An
appeal will hardly be taken in the
case, due to the confession of the ne
gro's guilt.

SAN DIEGO CLOSELY
 LINKED ID AR|z.
Representative of Geo. E. Buxton, Inc, Is Here Offering Opportun-
 'ity for Investment in Deep Water Harbor City.

MT. Van Lee Hood, of San Diego, Cal, representing the real estate firm of Geo. E. Buxton, Inc, is an ar rival in Clifton this week and will remain in the district for the next few weeks offering the people of this district opportunity for invest ment in San Diego real estate. MT. Hood is the Arizona representative of the Buxton firm and will shortly be joined here by MT. Buxton, who prior to going to San Diego four years ago was long time resident of Arizona, being engaged in business at Phoenix and Bisbee and who, incidentally is the owner of business block on Chase Creek in this city. In speak ingof San Diego and its promising fu- ture to a Copper Era representative, MT Hood said:
 '3The completion of the Panama canal in 1915 is destined to revolu- l tiOnize the commercial industries of the world and especially the Pacific ] it makes San Diego the first port of | call, it being the only deep water harbor between San Francisco and the canal, is sure to make it the largest shipping and industrial port on the Pacific. John D. Spreckles predicts that it will be the first city on the coast to reach a population of one million people.

 play missed and left Christy, the lit tlest man on the team, in possession
 of the ball without a man for inter-
 ference. Nothing daunted he whirl-
 and while practically the whole Doug las team was chasing Await he dash
 ed down the field for some twenty | yards before the Douglas quarter came to his senses and barely inter- cepted another touchdown. After several effective line bucks Christy
 caught Douglas before they were
 lined up and broke through the line himself for another touchdown. Cliff
 ton did not kick and the quarter end
 ed with a score of IS to 0.
 In the fourth Douglas again re- ceived and again were held for downs. Now that victory was prac- tically assured Clifton tried new play with great success and Tuttle's Nine buck brought home another There was yet ten min utes. of play and both sides fought like tigers but without any apparent gain. When the quarter ended the boys who were 1oath to leave their many congratulating supporters were hurried off the field by Coach Pear on and made to change their clothes before catching cold.

 Twin Peaks in company with a com Fade when he complained of being ill, not at the time realizing tho nature of his illness. His companion ad- Vised him that his trouble was aea- sles, the eruption then being visible, and the patfont came to Clifton for treatment. Upon his arrival here, the following morning, he was taken in charge by the health officials, and the room in which he sicpt the night before was thoroughly fumigated, and the man removed to the pest camp Dr. Burtch is of the opinion that the eruption began a week since. It is not known where the disense was contracted. The health authorities consider that the case is well in hand, and that no fears should be en- tertained in regard to the spread oe the disease.

whose tallest man was several inches 'shorter than the majority of the Douglas aggregation. Nevertheless, the looks of confidence on the faces of the Clifton players were genuine when they lined up Saturday after noon. Douglas kicked and Await re- ceived and to the amazement of even the spectators passed to Downey, but owing to the wind the ball curved and although Downey tried hard it missed his outstretched hands by several inches. Although this set the high school boys back some twenty inches they soon made it up by several irresistible line bucks and once more Awaits old reliable forward pass to Downey gave Clifton their first touchdown. Beck made a splendid kick but the ball hit the goal post and bounced back. Per ceiving the good luck of the Clifton boys Douglas decided to receive but

Not one instant did he hesitate but with his knees missing his chin by but a fraction of an inch he pounded off down a clear field for a second touchdown This time Beck redeemed himself by kick ing squarely between the goal posts, making the score 13 to 0 in the first quarter.
 Several times in the second quarter Douglas was within several feet of the Clifton goal, but each time the line settled down to business and held them for downs. In the sec ond half Douglas received again but the first four downs saw the ball again in Clifton's possession. A

It will make Arizona products worth more because of her accessi- bility to the markets of the world. It will make her imports cheaper be cause of the lower freight rates. This, in turn, will give the Arizona busi- ness man an opportunity to live more comfortably with his addition al accumulated profits with which he may own a nice summer and winter coast home in his market place, San Diego.
