 PEAR AT CONWAY.

This is the organization which fur nishes music for the state receptions at the White House and has been giv- en permission by the president to make an annual concert tour.

BLOUNT REPORTED
 SEEN AT ROLAND

A report that Lee Blount, slayer of Deputy Sheriff Oscar L. Honea, was seen by farmer two miles west of Roland yesterday was received by local officers last night The report could not be confirmed and the names of the persons said to have seen the fugitive murderer could not be learn ed, but an investigation is being made today.
 Accarding to a Roland dispatch in the Gazette, Blount was carrying Winchester rife, two revolvers and a bag of ammunition.
 Roland is on the Rock Island rail road, across the river and about four miles southwest of the scene of Blount's crime. It was near this point that bloodhounds from Tennessee were put on Blount's trail two days after Honea was killed.

RIG IS RECOVERED,
 BUT THIEF ESCAPES

J. J. Nixon returned yesterday af- ternoon from Argenta, where he re- covered a mule and buggy taken to that place by H. F. Beers Saturday night. Nixon stated that Beers had contracted to buy the mule, but owed a considerable part of the purchase price. The buggy and harness be- longed to Kirby Jones, on whose farm Beers had been working. It is also alleged that Beers had sold several bales of cotton due to Jones as rent. When Nixon reached Argenta he had no difficulty in locating the rig, which Beers had left in wagonyard, but the man who took them had made his escape.

SLIGHT LOSS IN FAULKNER GINNING Il,326 BALES TO OCT. IS GINNING FOR PERIOD SEPT 25 TO OCT. IS IS LESS THAN
 LAST YEARS.

Four more bales of cotton were gin ned in Faulkner county prior to Octo- Der Is than were ginned to the same date last yea, according to a bulletin received by the Log Cabin Democrat today from the census bureau. But the number of bales ginned during the period from Sept. 25 to Oct. IS, 1914, is PIP less than during the same period in 1913.
 The ginnings to October IS this year were 11,326 bales, against H. 322 to the same date in 1913. This represents a ginning during the pe- rlod from Sept. 25 of 7,667 bales, as compared with 1889 bales during like period last year.
 The total amount ginned from the crop of 1913 was 25,324 bales, but the present fall has been a much more favorable season for the opening and gathering of cotton than was last year and it may be that a considerably greater percentage of the crop was ginned by October IS this year than last year. On the other hand, the ex- tremely low price this year has not given the farmers the incentive to rush their picking and ginning, as was the case last season, and it is diff ficult from the ginning figures to base an estimate on the total crop this year.
 On the report to October Is Faulk- ner county stands seventh among the counties of the state. Mississippi county, with 22,5oO bales, leads and lis followed in order by Crittenden, Jefferson, Phillips, Columbia, Lonoke and Faulkner. Conway county, which stood fifth on the preceding report, dropped to eighth place, having gin ned 10,756 bales to October IS.

.BAYONET POINTS
MET @MOTHER' JONES
Famous Labor Agitator Re-
ceived by Troops
IS TOLD TO LEAVE TOWN
Deportation of "Mother" Jones Caus.
ed Much Anger on the Part of
Strikers and Strike Leaders at
Trinidad, Col.

Acting under orders from Adjutant
General John Chase, a detail of the
state militia met Mother Mary
Jones on her arrival at Trinidad, Col,
from El Paso. ordered her to return
aboard the train and accompanied
her as far as Walsenburg, the limit
Of the military zone.
Mother" Jones purchased ticket
from Trinidad to Denver. She offered
no remonstrance.
The military authorities had learn
ed that Mother" Jones intended to
stop at Trinidad to exhort the strik-
ers, and deeming her presence unde-
sirable in the city General Chase or
dered her deported. Should she re-
turn, said General Chase, she will be
arrsted by the military authorities.
The presence at the station of
more citizens than militiamen on the
arrival Of Mother" Jones led to an
early report that the citizens them
selves had deported her and that the
soldiers presence was to prevnt her
from unnecessary indignities.
The deportation Of Mother" Jones
caused much anger on the part of the
strikers and strike leaders at Trinidad
and there were many urgent requests
forwarded to Denver that she return
to Trinidad at once, assuring her
protection from any number Of troops
or citizens. Several strike leaders,
including John McLennon, president
Of the Colorado Federation of Labor.
were at the station when Mother
Jones arrived, but the military Off
GERS would not permit her to speak
to any Of them.

HE SOUGHT ARREST.
BY Stealing Purse Starving viscount
Gets Food in Jail.

viscount Charles Enguerrand de
Marigny, scion Of an old French fans
lily, penniless and starving, snatched
a pocketbook from woman In the
street at Paris. He explained to the
police commissary that he snatched
the purse so that he might be sent to
prison, where he would, at least, be
given food and shelter. The viscount's
father once was wealthy, but lost all
in a bank failure.
viscount de Marigny served with
the French cavalry forces In the Mo-
rocco campaign and was awarded
medal. Recently he was discharged
from the army, his term Of service
having expired. He spent all his saw
ings, he said, vainly seeking employ
ment.
The police commissary complied
with the request Of De Marigny and
sent him to Jail.

A GOOD MAJORITY
Given in Favor of Project Voted
on in tuesdays Eieeiion

Good roads for this section and
the whole of this southern portion
of DeSoto county now seem assur-
ed. In tuesdays election, held
specially for the purpose, a sub
stantial majority was given in fa-
vor of the proposition for the cre-
alton of a special road and bridge
district and the issuance of two
hundred thousand dollars worth of
bonds for the construction and im-
provement of public highways and
bridges.
The election was ordered by the
county commissioners in compli-
ance with petitions signed by peo.
pile all over the proposed district,
and the result is no more than was
expected, as strong sentiment
for good roads has developed
throughout this region.
Punta Gorda precinct gave n
majority of sixty-one for bonds.
The vote of Cleveland, Bermont
and Citrus Center is not definitely
known, as no report was sent out
from these precincts before the
sealing of the ballot boxes; but il
is stated that Cleveland gave u
small majority against the project,
while in Bermont the vote was
about evenly divided, and the Cit
rus Center precinct gave u good
majority for bonds.
Thus, this section lines up with
the other progressive sections OF
Florida in the matter of good
roads. The sale of the bonds and
the judicious expenditure of the
funds will provide u system Of
good roads second TO none in the
state.

NOTED SAFE BLOWER
SAWS OUT OF JAIL.
LADY in Blue" Said to Have
Helped Escape
FURNISHED With FILES
Was United States Prisoner Since
February Last-His Fifth Success
fuI Attempt at Jail Breaking-Led
Dual Existence.

A. d. Cannameyer, better known
in criminal records as Albert Driscoll,
professional safe blower and profess
ed preacher, escaped from the county
Jail at Jacksonville, Fla, by saving
through the bars in his cell and low
ering himself to the ground with tied
blankets.
The arrest and indictment by the
United States grand jury, of Albert
d. Cannameyer for the robbery of the
postoffice at Green Cove Springs, on
the night of July Sth last, reveals a
long criminal record and double life
led by him, that of professional safe
blower and religious worker.
In the disappearance of Gamma
meyer the local authorities have met
the fate of all institutions in which
he has been confined. He is consid-
cred the best man in his business,
and has made several escapes. Can
nameyer escaped from the famous
Joliet penitentiary under the very
nose of the guards and broke for his
freedom at Fort Leavenworth. Kan.
He escaped from Atlanta in the same
manner.
From what could be learned from
a trusty at the jail, it is thought that
the Mysterious Woman In Blue a
one time prisoner, planned the escape
and succeeded by some unknown
method in getting the steel saws to
Cannameyer, by which he made his
getaway.

FIRE AT OCALA.
Lumber Company Plant Burns With
$4,000 Loss.

$4,000 Loss.
Estimates made place the loss in
the Ocala fire at $4,000. Two large
warehouses Of the Ocala Lumber and
Supply Company were destroyed.
The fire, which was discovered a
few minutes past 8 o'clock, gained
considerable headway before the ar
rival of the department, and gave the
firemen and hundreds of volunteers
one of the hardest tasks in years.
The firemen, after a hard two
hours fight, confined it to the two
main buildings, which are total
loss. The origin of the fire is un-
known.
The night watchman passed the
main warehouse, where the flames
started, about fifteen minutes previ-
GUS.
The loss is fully insured, and the
buildings will be rebuilt at once.
