FEAR THE LEGISLATURE.
Banks Refuse to Honor Vouchers
 for Militia Maintenance.

Little Rock, June 21.-The local banks are declining to accept vouchers of officials of the Arkan- sas National Guard, and it IS having the effect of ieopardizing the future of the organization, Governor Flu trell issued a proclamation declar- ing that an emergency existed to the extent of $3,0OO, authorizing the warrants to be drawn upon the state treasurer to that amount m support of the state guard. The banks are not convinced that the legislature would make an appro- priation to cover the deficiency thus created. and will advance no money on the vouchers. This is the req son for resignation of Capt. W. c. Bradford, assistant adjutant gen eral. and it is not probable that anyone else can be found to serve under the circumstances. The sal ary of the quarter-master, E. B. Jett, is also affected.

THE NEW UNIVERSITY
 HEAD TAXES CHARGE
Professor Futrell Could Have Been Elected Permanent President, but Wanted to Make
 Good First.

Little Rock, June 30.-Prof. J. c. Futrell, elected as acting president of the University, left for Fayette vile last night, and today assumes active charge of the institution, re- lieving Dr. J. H. Reynolds, who to- morrow assumes the presidency of Hendrix College at Conway.
 Dr. Futrell could have been elect ed permanent head of the uniyer- sity at the meeting of the board of trustees held in Little Rock Satur- day, but declined to have the board consider such a proposition until he has a year in which to prove he can handle the situation satisfac- torily to all.
 The new president of the univer- sity will bring improvements in the institution which he expects will bring a healthy increase of stu dents, and in addition to this, he anticipates the most harmonious year in the history of the institu- tion. He plans to start short courses in the agricultural college, by which farmers may secure the advantages of the institution when they are not needed on the farm. The same will be done in the me- chanicaI departments, especially engineering. The new educational department will be opened with the coming year.

TELLS HIS FATHER

0duS Davidson, Facing Hanging for Brutal Murder of Ella Barham, Shed No Tears on Part

Berryville, June 26.-K. NJ. David son, father of Odus Davidson, who is in jail here awaiting execution for the brutal murder of Ella Barham near Zine last November, passed through here Tuesday en route to Oklahoma, where he will live in the future. Mr. Davidson and family paid Odus Davidson a final visit while ill the city. They remained in jail only a few minutes, discuss ing topics of interest only to the family. When they arose to leave, the father told Odus that he might never see him again. and asked him to tell him whether he was guilty or innocent of Miss Barham's mur- der, to which Odus replied: "I am not guilty" Mr. Davidson then told his son that he would go to Okla homa as soon as he could make the drive overland, and that he would return to his lawyers at Harrison the necessary funds to take his case to the Supreme Court of the United States in case the Arkansas court refuses to grant a new hearing.
 Odus went through the ordeal of bidding his folks adieu without tremor or loss of a tear, while his mother and one of his sisters wept bitterly.
 Mr. Davidson advised Odus that in case it was necessary to take his case to the United States Supreme court he would likely have to re- main in jail for a year, and possibly two years, before he would get decision, and also advised him to be patient and obedient to the officers in charge of the prison where he is kept.

Will Reappear on Earth.

At the conclusion of the conver- sation she expressed her readiness to dictate replies to her questions.
 Do you believe that Mrs. Eddy will appear again on earth?' was the first question.
 II do," was the reply. T believe that what was possible for man his reappearance to the world after seeming death, can be possible to woman. For a time Jesus was not visible. But he rose to a demon stration over the human thought, which embodied itself in flesh and through the power of his Christ consciousness manifested himself, Would you deny a woman who has learned Jesus the spiritual ability 10 prove her teachings as Jesus proved his by manifesting herself to the Morld?"
 Do you regard Mrs Eddy as the female representative of God?' was the next question.
 "I do,' replied Mrs. Stetson. God must manifest Himself through woman as he once mani fested Himself through man. Our promise upon which we base facts is: God is spirit, the only creator mind or the great thought con- sciOuSneSs.'
