RIGGS ANNOUNCES.
Enters the Race for Mayor on Plat form of Strict Law Enlargement.

Enters the Race for Mayor on Plat
 form of Strict Law Enforcement.
 Joan A. Riggs announces this morning as q candidate for the Demo- cratic nomination for mayor of Hot Springs. His candidacy is submit ted on a platform of strict law. en- foTcement, such as he made the race on two years ago. MT. Riggs an nounces that he will make aa active and aggressive campaign, and he be lieves that he will receive sufficient pub,ic suppo;s to gar the office.
 He is the proprietor of the Hot Strings New Era. of ne Lopez Rem. edy, and is interested in other !i1es of business in Hot Springs. He mas been a successful business man, and stands we'll in business and church circles.
 MT. Riggs says: My platform is the same as it was two years ago {; viz. a flat-footed enforcement of law without fear or favor.
 q am the only candidate for mayor who ever came out on this platform in Hot Springs. Many citizens who did not agree with me two years ago have changed their views and now agree that Hot Springs future sue cess and prosperity depends on build ing up the resort on a sound founda- tion. They believe that as l had the courage of my convictions and stooo on this platform two years ago when many were against me that l am the logical candidate for mayor and should have the advantage of the revulsicn of public sentiment against mtolerable conditions here, instead of some others who have recently shifted their platforms to meet pub iic favor"

JOHNSTON JURY
 FAILS 10 AGREE
STANDS WHEN DISMISSED, SIX FOR CONVICTION AND SIX
 FOR HIS ACQUiTTAL.
Johnston Given Liberty Under a Re- duced Bond and the Case Goes over Until Next Term
 of Court.

Standing six for conviction and six for acquittal, the twelve men who as a jury had the authority to pass on how George Johnston should an swer to the law for the alleged kill ing of Carrol Shepman, yesterday be fore noon made its nnal report to Circuit Judge Gotham, and was dis charged.
 After a review of the circumstances Judge Gotham ruled that Johnston should be permitted his liberty on bond in the sum of $2,vO0, to answer to the next term of circuit court, when his case probably will be given a rehearing. The bond was assented to by the prosecuting attorney.
 Principal interest ln the failure of the jury to arrive at a verdict was the oiscussion as to the decisive stand juries in this county have taken ill
 ony cases at this term of court.
 The first murder case tried result cd in conviction 4i the first degree, and Clarence A. Shuman will pay his life for his crime. -he next case tried was that of negro charged with the killing of another negro. under extenuating circumstances, and that jury brought in verdict for murder in the second degree, with a punish ment of 21 years in the state peniten- tiary
 The Johnston case was not con- sidered by court attendants as a strong state case. The evidence was all circumstantial, and there was something lacking in the motive of.

KINDERGARTEN LAW
 IS RECOMMENDED
U. S. COMM SSloNER OF EDUcA. TON WOULD LIKE TO SEE
 IT IN ARKANSAS.

! With reference to the submission
 of bill in the Arkansas legislature
 permitting cities and towns to main
 tain kindergartens, P P. Claxton, U. S commissioner of education, Wasl- ington, D. C., has written the follow ing letter to Miss Jane B. Gray, of this city, commenting the effort to secure the passage of such an act He says:
 Department of the Interior,
 Bureau of Education. Washington, January Is, 1913.
 Miss Jane B. Gray,
 Park Hill Carrier No. 9, Hot Springs Arkansas
 My Dear Miss Gray:
 l am glad to know that you are making an effort to have the legis- lature of Arkansas enact a law per hitting the cities and towns of the state to maintain kindergarteRs as a
 part of the public school system. l believe most thoroughly in the i kindergarten. It is especially help full for the increasingly large mum
 Der of children whose home life is ! poor hecanse of the fact that their mothers and fathers must go into the
 mills and factories, leaving them on
 the street, or in the home, without proper care It has been difficult for the people, especially of the southern states, to understand the /, real value of the kindergarten, be- cause of the fact that until very recently we have had no large cities, l the people have lived in the country and the children have worked on the farm, in the garden, and in the home with their fathers and mothers and
 older brothers, and sisters, or they nave played at the things done on kindergarten provides for their play
 at many simple industries. For very large proportion of elil- dren about the town, the kindergar- ten adds two years to the educa- tional life at very critical time. But probably the best result from the in- troduction of the kindergarten into the commcn schools, Is the effect
 which it has on the work of all ot the elementary grades. Tle philo- sophy of the kindergarten applies equally well to education in all the grades of the public schools and probably tends more than any other one thing to breaking up the dead routine and mechaaical process oi these grades.
 shall be glad if can do anything
 to nelp get this bill enacted into law by the legislature of the state. l Yours sincerely,
 P. F. CLAYTON.

 The rooms have all been redecorat- ed and rehabilitated for the opening and the splendid wall decorations, the potted plants, ferns and flowers have added a charm to the rooms which has transformed them into a verita- ble bower of beauty An orchestra, with well-known vpcaiists, will fur nish music, the dining room furnish ings, the silver and china service are the best that could be secured, and nothing has been left undone that would serve to place this popular club cafe in the frcnt rank.
 The management state in their for nal announcement that first-class eats drinks and smokes will be serv- ed, the service will be exclusively white and the prices will be popular for the class or service given.
 The formal opening of the dining room will be Monday evening, Janu- ary 20, o'clock dinner. At this hour a table d'hote dinner will be served, which the management promises will be the acme of epicurean perfection. Instrumental and vocal music and souvenirs for the ladies will be one of the features of the opening.
