GUARD MUSTERED OUT.

Little Rock, March 14.-Under in- structions which are being sent out today by w. B. Green, adjutant gen eral of the Arkansas National Guard, that was, the 21 companies are order ed to disband at once. At the same time Gen. Greene has sent notice to Washington to have an officer of the War Department detailed to Arkan- sas to check in all supplies. The reg mental bands were also requested to make their settlements for supplies issued. Under these orders Arkansas will be the only state in the Union in
 less than week which has no militia.

ARKANSAS SOLONS
 HIKE FOR HOME
ARE A SATISFIED LOT
EACH ONE BELIEVES IN "PUT- ING SOMETHING OVER" ON
 THE OTHER FELLOW.

Little Rock, March 14.-Few mem- bers of the thirty-ninth general as- sembly remain in the city, the major lty taking the remainder of the letter heads, tablets and other supplies fur nished them by the chief clerk and secretary and hiking for>home last night. A more satisfied lot of legisla- tors never left Little Rock, for all de- parted with the happy thought that they had put something over on the others, and still left some picking for the next time.
 While it appeared that all state in- stitutions were being bereft of kith or kin, a cold analysis of the facts show they fared much better than could have been expected with the general revenue fund in it's depleted condition. The University of Arkan- sas is not crippled to any great extent with an appropriation of many thous- ands in advance of the appropriation of two years ago. The agricultural schools have nearly half million ad- vance. The state tuberculosis sanita- rum has appropriations for buildings refused two years ago and the state hospital has an appropriation of near ly $175,000 greater than that of 1911.
 The state land department, which had a fight to keep from being abol- ished, came out of the fray with an increased appropriation of over $5O,- 900, due to the placing of the state highway commission under this de- partment.
 With all departments enjoying an advance there is a general jollifca- tion and hopes are being expressed that the next session will not exceed sixty days if all hands can be as sue cessful as the past one.

ARKANSAS HAS
 TWO GOVERNORS
FUTRfLL TAXES THE OATH
BUT ACTING GOVERNOR OLD- HAM REFUSES TO RELIN-
 QUISH OFFICE.

Little Rock March 14.-If the say- ing of Solomon is true, "a house divid- ed against itself will fall,' the roof of the state capitol is due for tumble before the end of the week, for be- heath It today there are two seats of government, and they are as far sep- arated as it is possible under the lim- its of the building. Acting Governor Oldham holds forth in the quarters which have been assigned to the gov ernor in the northmost corner of the building, while Acting Governor Flu trell has offices in the southmost cor ner, adjoining the senate chamber. Both claimants to the office are sur rounded by retinue of legal talent and followers.
 Acting Governor J. M. Futrell, president pro tenn of the senate, who took the oath of office on Thursday morning, Thursday afternoon made a formal demand upon Acting Governor Oldham, who took the oath of office as governor Wednesday afternoon, for the office. The demand was met with stony glare, look of askance land point blank refusal. In fact, Acting Governor Futrel was almost told to Ego to-"
 Nothing daunting, Acting Govern or withdrew from the office of Acting Governor Oldham and established his citadel upon the hill at the other end of the building. No further commu- nication was indulged in between the claimants for the office, but both set on foot legal proceedings to hold or grab the office.
 In his end of the building Acting Governor Oldham consulted with his attorneys and at the other end Act ing Governor Futrell was surrounded by an apparent majority of the sen ate. His chief advisors were Sena- tors Lundy of Polk, Rodgers of Ben ton and Miles of Pulaski.
 Acting Governor Futrell is looking after the real interests of the people of Arkansas, while attending to his right for the office, for he has taken the precaution to sign all appropria- tlon measures, even though they are signed by Acting Governor Oldham, in order to make them legal. He did this so that no question could come up on them in the future. Acting Gov ernor has further notified the enroll ing committee of the house and sen- ate where he is to be found to sign all bills which have been placed in proper shape by them. He advised the heads of these committees to bring the bills to his office if they are to be legally signed.
 The question of who is the proper person to sign the bills will bring the Igubernatorial problem to an early so- lutlon, for it is judicial question. which will permit the supreme court to pass upon it and some way will be found to get the question into that court Monday, or the week following, so the question of who is governor will not be long in being solved.

WORTH AND WOMEN
TOGETHER IN CELL
DAMAGING TESTIMONY GIVEN
AGAINST MRS. BOSSERMAN
By CITY JAILER

STAUNTON, VA, March 26.-The
prosecution in the case OF Mrs. Clara
Rowzee Bosserman, who IS charged
with being an accessory to shooting OF
her husband by A ID. Worth, con-
sumed the whole day.
Sensational evidence was given to-
day ny Jailer Hutcheson as TO find
ing Worth in Mrs. Bossermans cell
at 5 o'clock yesterday morning
The evidence against the woman as
to her relations with Worth is strong.
but as TO her being an accessory to
shooting 1t is not. When put on the
stand, Mrs. Bosserman gave the same
evidence as Bosserman, saying that
she threw herself between the two
when Worth shot him. Defense also
examined Mrs. Bossermans sister,
Halle Rowzee, TO whom Worth has
been paying attention. The jailer's
story was the big sensation and bore
directly on criminal relations between
the woman and Worth. 1t was kept
out of the ruling Yesterday. but after
hot debate was put in today.
