Alex Semereux at Work.

Minneapolis, July 21.-When Alex
Semereux, a railroad switchman at
Odessa, Mimi, lost both arms in a
railroad accident two years ago, he
didn't go to begging.
Guess I'll have to talk myself
into living sales or something like
that" he pluckily told his wife.
He secured agency rights on a line
of automobiles. He soon found,
however, that driving a car was
necessary to his business. He
couldn't afford an extra man for
demonstrations. He decided to try
himself.

SMASHING PRECEDE NTS

President Wilson refusal to lay aside state matters to talk local poli- ties with political fence repairers seems to be getting on the nerves of some of the big fellows in the party When a pompous senator wanders in~ 10 the White House to suggest the ap- pointment of few henchmen he is referred 10 the head of the particu lar department that he wants to get his favorites in. Of course he is some what offended and talks sarcastieally of precendents and other bosh.
 But Mr. Wilson doesn't seem wor- ried at all In fact he doesn't seem to be in politics any more. He is now the president of the United States and has intimated that he will run that cedents don't bother him. Just be- cause William Fl. Taft paraded into a Washington theatre to the tune of Hail to the Chief is no reason why he should is the way he looks at it, and that's only one recital Of prece- dent smashing that the president is with.
 Following the rut of custom and tradition is the trouble of politics any how. Wilson's method of procedure is somewhat of relief from the time honored or 'honery" traditions and his desire to make job of his position is worrying q few but source of a little pleasure to the deer pecpuI."

sanity on two different occasions. They will draw fee from the county for their duties. Dr. J. L. Green, superintendent of the State Hospital for Nervous Diseases at Little Rock has made three trips to Pine Bluff and has also appeared before the two governors who have been in office during the time the fight for McVay s life has been carried on Each time the specialist appeared he rendered a bill.
 When footed up the amount McVay has cost the county will be enormous
 For the past several weeks McVay has been as helpless invalid There has been little improvement in his physical and mental condition and now he will so to the institution built by the state to care for it's men tai weddings, an institution which has housed his brother for many years

stayed for ten days for developments. McVay's mental and physical condition showed no improvement and Governor Donaghey again extended the date, setting February 2S for the execution.
 Last week Governor Robinson heard arguments for communication by attor- neys for the condemned man and took the matter under consideration.

Crime Charged To McVay

John McVay, with his two brothers, Ed and Cullen, were indicted for first degree murder for. the killing of J. w. Ethridge, of Fall Back, Miss, in the Jefferson county court house on November 20, 1911. Ethridge was on trial for the assassination of Albert McVay, which occurred almost a year before The trial had just begun and attorneys for both sides completed their opening statements when re- cess was taken until the next day. As Ethridge, his aged father, and the de- fense attorney, H. K. Toney, emerged from the court room volley of shots rang out. Ethridge was mortally wounded but staggered down to the first floor and fell just at the en- trance of the building His father re- ceived bullet in the left arm.
 The four McVay brothers, John, Ed, Cullen and George were ordered ar rested by Judge A. B. Grace. The killing, taking place as it did in the hall of justice, created widespread comment and many large newspapers comented upon it in long editorials. George was later released when there was conclusive proof that he was mo- where near the court house at the time of the killing. S~
 The three were indicted for murder in the first degree. John was con- victed and sentenced to be hanged on May IT, 1912 An appeal to the su preme court acted as a stay of eXecu- ton. In the meanwhile Ed and Gull len McVay secured a change of venue and were tried at Star City. They entered pleas of guilty to second de- gree murder and were sentenced to twelve years and half each in the state penitentiary They are now serv- ing their sentences.
 The supreme court affirmed the sentence of John McVay and his exc cution was set for December 27. Within two weeks of the date on which he was to pay the penalty for his crime he exhibited signs of in sanity. A sanity commission was en- panelled and after evidence by sev- eral physicians, one of which was Dr. Green. of Little Rock, the commission +, insane and his execution was again

WITHAM MAY BE
 HELD FOR MURDER Pistol Toter Identified as 55lay CT of Robert Younger
 Near Malvern.
WORKING OUT FINE
Arrested Here for Carrying Conceal cd Weapons Wanted in
 Pueblo. CaiO.

Complications in the case of ". T. Wtham, the white man who was fined S200 for carrying pistol by Police Judge J. R. Stewart about two months ago and who since has been laboring on the city streets, have arisen and the men is now confront ad by more serious charges, one of which is murder
 It is alleged that Witham is one of the men who brutally murdered Rob- ert Younger, a western officer, on the Iron Mountain train a short distance from Malvern recently.
 Chief of Police J. L. McBurnett and Night Chief Fiveash have both been working hard on the case and had pictures taken of Witham and he was also measured very carefully.
 One of the pictures was sent to the state farm to Warden McCook and was shown to a man by the name of Willis who was recently sent to the penitentiary from Malvern for the killing of Younger Willis has always contended that he did not fire the shot that killed Younger, but that his partner did X telegram re- ceiyed here yesterday from Warden identified the picture of Witham as being the man who was with him on the night of the murder of Younger and stated that Witham was the man who fired the shot which killed the officer. Willis is now at the State Farm serving his sentence of ten years for the killing of Younger and stated that the original of the picture shown him was the man who was with him and who fired the fatal shct.
 Witham has many aliases, among them being Otto Montgomery and Otto Smith. He was arrested in this city by Patrolmen Roebuck and Sherman and upon beinfg searched, a pistol was found upon him. This is thought to be the pistol which killed Robert Younger He was then arraigned be- fore Police Judge ]. R. Stewart on a charge of carrying concealed wea pons and that official fined him $200 Since that time, Witham has been working on the city streets in the chain-gang and has been very reti- cent in speaking of his past life.
 He does not know that Willis has stated that he is the man who killed Robert Younger and who was with him, and will not be informed of that fact until all circumstances are brought to light
 He has worked his last day on the streets of this city and will be kept in close confinement until further de- velopments. 1t is very probable that he will be taken to Malvern and tried for the murder of Younger. However, the state law is that no convict can testify in a case until he has been par dOned and Willis is the only prescott ing witness available just now.
 Chief McBurnett received tele- gram yesterday from the sheriff at Pueblo Colo, stating that 0Witham is wanted in that city and asking that he be held for him. However, it is not known just what disposition will i be made of the case, but it was stated last night that the man will be closely guarded until more developments oc- l cur.
