Uu-to-Date Finance.

Thomas w Lawson said the other
day of a scandalous financial deal;
These people traded on popular ls-
norance. They were like Calhoun
Clay, who opened bank in Nola
Chucky.
All the colored people around Nola
Chucky deposited their savings IN Cal
houn's bank, and Cal soon began 10
wear, instead of cowhide boots and
leans, patent feathers and broadclotn:
Then. one day, Wash White calieu
at the bank and said:
"Td like for to draw out my
money. sab
Your money! said the banker
lighting a ten-cent cigar.

"'Yes, my $40 what posted las'

Calhoun Clay angrily, don't you know

MADERO AND SUAREz
WERE SHOT TO DEATH
THEY WERE BEING TRANSFER.
RED AT NIGHT FROM NATION
Al PALACE TO PRISON.
TRIED TO ESCAPE, SAYS HUERTA
Two Of the Attacking Party Shot
Dead and Many Wounded as They
Mixed It In An Attempt to Lib.
crate Madero and Suarez.

Mexico City.-Francisco l. Madero |
and Jose Pine Suarez, deposed presi- |
dent and vice president, respectively,
of Mexico, were shot and instantly
killed Sunday night when an attempt
was made to rescue them from an au-
tomobile in which they were being
transferred to the penitentiary.
News of the death of Madero and
Suarez was confirmed by General
Huerta. Previously it had been an
nounced that the transfer from the
palace to the penitentiary had been
made successfully.
The escort was composed of Major
Cardenas of the Seventh Rurales, two
other officers and one soldier. The
automobiles left the palace at II
o'clock and about twenty minutes later
the attack occurred. .
In the greenroom of the palace at
2:30 o'clock Lieutenant Colonel Mas,
in the presence of Generals Huerta
and Banquet, with aides, gave out the
official version of the affair for the
provisional president.
Wrapped in military cloak and
wearing smoked glasses, which he has
used constantly since he underwent
an operation for cataracts, his head
incased in a military cap, General
Huerta paced restlessly back and
forth.
General Banquet was stoical, stern
grim and outwardly unmoved. He
was muffled in military cape, anC
stood by, motionless as a statue, II
marked contrast to the active move
ments of his chief. In lower room
in the southwest corner of the palace
at the elevator landing leading to tn
antechamber of the presidential OF
fees, and at the doors leading to tn
greenroom, Chapultepec cadets di
sentry duty. In cases where courag
J and absolute loyalty are required hls
officials of the army invariably ca

WILL NOT POSTPONE
 ELECTION.

Little Rock-There was much speculation following the charges or fraud and contest proceedings brought by Col. Brundidge relative to the attitude of Gov. J. M. Futrell. It was freely declared that the gov ernor would postpone the election six months to allow ample time for Col. Brundidge to substantiate his charges in the courts, and Private Secretary Smith was quoted as hay ing said the governor could do so. However, after investigation, Gov. Futrell issued the following state ment:
 T have decided that It is not within the power of the governor to recall or postpone the special election; that if it were possible to postpone the election, 1t would be highly improper to do so. It will not be done. (Signed)

above took place. The committee again adjourned at p. m. until o'clock Tuesday morning when 1t an. nounced that 1t was ready to hear the charges.
 In lengthy statement following ths meeting Hal L. Norwood said:
 Party Is on Trial.
 The Democratic party is on trial The friends of Judge Hays are in tho majority on the committee. We sub mtted to the committee a proposition which would have demonstrated whether the claims of fraud were well founded and which could have been determined in time to certify nomi- nee, but the majority of the committee has shown no disposition to aid ths contestant in sincere investigation. We shall not surrender Colonel Brun- didges rights because his opponents are using the steam roller but we shall contend for his rights and If ths Democratic party does not have nominee at the coming election, 1t will be the fault of the parties who refuse to meet us half way and to comply with reasonable request made undsr the law"

 Little Rock.-The Democratic State Central Committee did not take kindly to the contest of Hon. Stephen Brun- didge and emphatically rejected every proposition advanced by the Searcy- ans supporters. When the committee met on Monday it found itself con- fronted with mandatory injunction secured by Col. Bruididge early Mon day morning in the Pulaski Chancery Court ordering and directing the com mlttee to investigate Col. Brundidge's charges of fraud and restraining the committee from declaring the nominee until after it had heard the evidence ana decided the contest according to law.
 This injunction was the only point scored by Col Brunddge during the day He had sprung a complete sur prise on the Hays forces Saturday by serving on Judge Hays official notice or his intended action as follows:
 Honorable George W. Hays: You are hereby respectfully notified that the undersigned will present to the Honorable John Martineau, chancellor Of the First Chancery district of Ark ansas, at chambers, at the hour of 9 o'clock on Monday, the 3Oth day of June, 1913, a petition for a mandatory Injunction to direct and compel the Democratic Central Committee of the state of Arkansas to hear and deter mine contest upon the returns of the primary election held in this state for the nomination of the office of gov. ernor by the Democratic party on the Fist day of June, 1913, which said con test will by me be filed before said committee on said Monday, the 3Oth day of June. 1913,
 Respectfully. (Signed) "S. Brundidge.
 By Hal L. Norwood and Joseph M. Stayton. attorney"
 Col. Brundidge was said to have de- cided on this course as result of ru- mors in circulation that an effort would be made before the State Cen tral Committee to table his contest De- tition.
 Political Events Unusual.
 The political events of the day were unusual Two divided wings of the Democratic party appeared before the State Central Committee demanding that this high party tribunal decide which was right. Bitter words were spoken by men whose party loyalty hitherto had been unprecedented. to men whose Democracy never had been attacked
 But through the exciting events of the day, it was seen that Judge Hays supporters dominated the committee, and the Camden jurist won every point left to that tribunal to decide.
 Neither Judge Hays nor Mir. Brun- didge appeared in person before the committee throughout the day of stub born fighting, but the interests of each were guarded zeaIously by men who worked for them at the polls be- fore bitterness entered the party ranks.
 A resolution offered early in the committee meeting by w. r. Coleman of Pine Bluff, the floor leader of the Hays forces, resulted in stubborn fight, which lasted throughout a long, sultry afternoon The Hays men fought for the adoption of the resolu- tion and won. The Brundidge men fought it every inch of the 6ay and lost.
 The Coleman resolution vas as fol lows:
