Wilkesbarre, Pa, July 11.--District
Attorney Bigelow announced today he
would oppose the pleas of Herbert
Johns, who was exonerated last night
by eoronial jury with connection in
the death of Alice Crispell, whose body
was found in Haryeys Lake last Mon
day.
Johns will have a hearing before a
justice of the peace late today
The district attorney, who is not sat

body, claims the case is beyond the

the only way Johns can be released is
through habeas corpus proceedings.
The district attorney has applied to
the county court for permission to dis

make second autopsy possible.
Authorities Not Satisfied
County police authorities said today
they We're not satisfied with the verdict
of the coroners exonerating Herbert
Johns of connection with the death of
Alice Crispell, whose body was found in
Herveys Lake Monday.
The verdict stated:
Evidence in this case fails to show
any motive for crime on the part of
Herbert Johns and we feel certain that
he had no part in the death of Miss
Crispell"
Representatives of the district attor-
neys office said that while there was
nothing in the testimony to base
charges that Johns was guilty, yet the
coroner's jury should have rendered a
verdict simply of death by drowning
without accusing or exonerating any
one.
Additional Evidence
County Detective McKelvy says that
he did not think that three deputy cor
oners should have made up half of the
coronial jury. He said for this reason
he will introduce additional evidence
tonight when Johns will be given a
hearing before a justice of the peace.
Little that was new developed at the
inquest except that members of the Cris-
pell family testified that the girl had
been wayward and that on this account
she had had trouble with her father.
The father in his testimony admitted
pointing an unloaded weapon at his
daughter.

BEAUTIFY CAPITOL. GROUNDS.

Little Rock, March 20.-Renton Tunnah, secretary of the State Capi- tol Commission is having the large flower bed in the center of the Capi- tol grounds worked over and will en- large upon it this year. The center will be of banana trees, new supply being received from New Orleans. This will be surrounded by fringe of canna plants, with smaller floWer- ing plants tapering off the circle. This large flower bed is the most beauti- full in Little Rock, but almost went to wreck during the year Secretary Tunnah was off the commission. When the work starts on the grounds, the flower bed will have to be moved as it is in the center of what will be the main driveway. Secretary Tunnah will then start new ones on either side of the lawn, and expects to work out the state seal in two large beds of flower plants.

SPECIAL NOTICE TO THE CITI,
 ZENS OF PINE BLUFF.

I have the greatest discovery of the Twentieth Century in the form of a scientific and chemically prepared medicated soap, known as the Cali fornia Medicated Healing Soap. It is especially manufactured for eradicat- ing all manners of kin diseases, and right here in Pine Bluff, has effected many wonderful cures, by curing scrofula and many of the diseases list ed below. Such as Cancer, Running Sores, Blood-poison, Rheumatism. Neuralgia. Exema, Ulcers, Ring Worms. Salt Rheum, Pimples Black heads. Itching on the body, Sore Feet, Cuts, Wounds and Bruises, Bone-fel- Ions, Corns and Bunions. Remember, this soap is partly manufactured from imported olive oil, and that makes it par-eXcellent as hair grower and restorer. Besides being superior to anything on the market, as a toilet soap, it is invaluable as prepara- tion for removing from the scalp dandruff and other diseases of the scalp.
 Call me up, and I will further ex- plain particulars of this great soap. Price per box ,s100; six bars to the box All orders delivered.
