 The rain will be immense benefit to crops. Early corn had been suffering Tor several weeks, and in some sec- tons corn was severely damaged.

 inquest over the body of James H.. Harrod, the distinguished attorney Who was killed Friday at noon, began at o'clock Saturday morning and the most of the day will probably be con- stunned with the examination of wit nesses.
 While it claimed by the defense that the death of Judge Harrod was an accident and it is admitted that James E. Madding, the young man plloting the high powered car which crashed into the distinguished citizen, had no criminal intent, yet public feel ing is high against him, because it has been shown by many witnesses that the car was travelling at a high rate of speed at the time of the ac- cldent. There has never been any dan ger of personal violence toward young Madding, but sentiment is so strong that prosecution and conviction, for at least manslaughter, is demanded.
 It was customary for Judge Harrod. with neighbors, to walk to the city every morning, he declaring that his health demanded the exercise. At noon he usually rode home in his tour ing car, but Friday he decided to take a street car home and did not wait for his son and the machine. As he stepped from the car a heavy truck crossed Broadway headed in the same direction sthe car.
 The rapidly approaching car driv- en by young Madding, and occupied by Aca c. Oracle and Miss Mary Mast in addition, could not be seen by Judge Harrod. The car, headed in an op- posit direction from the street car and the truck, in order to avoid a collision. running full force into Judge Harrod and James Coates, the small son of John E. Coates, a we'll known insur ance man of Little Rock.
 Judge Harrod was thrown against the curbing, the top of his head being crushed in as though it was an egg shell. He died instantly. James Coates received deep gash in his throat, which extended from ear to ear. and another in his forehead. He will probably recover.
 Judge Harrod has been very promi- nent in legal affairs of Arkansas for many years. He was one of the most active of the States attorneys in the recent rate litigation, and was slated to become United States District At torney for the Eastern District of Ar kansas. He was classmate of Pres. Woodrow Wilson, and was the person. al selection of the president for this place.
 The funeral will take place Sunday afternoon at o'clock with interment at Mt. Holly cemetery, beside the grave of his young son, Thomas, who was drowned at Ludington, Mich, two years ago, just as he was reaching his majority.
