TWO CONWAY GIRLS
 IN GRADUATING RECITAL
MISSES DOROTHY PYLE AND MARY CURETON GIVE A
 CONCERT AT CENTRAL.

A splendid and representative Con- way audience heard last evening at Central College one of the most bril- liant graduating recitals ever given at that institution.
 The recital was given by Miss Dor othy Pyle, pianist, and Miss Mary Cureton, violinist both of whom are Conway girls and of whose talent and success Conway citizens, as we'll as Central patrons, are very proud.
 Miss Pyle played her most difficult with ease and grace and ap- parently without effort. Her tech nidde' is unusually clear, and distinc- tive in the combination of rapidity and correctness. Her interpretation is good and rather individual, which is another characteristic of the gen uine musician, For lightness of touch, for rhythm and expression of musical temperament, Cascade of the Caudron" by Bendel can hardly be and it was excellently rem

S2.OOO FOR PROBE
 OF CHARITY BOARD

Little Rock, May 4.-Gov. Hays Monday afternoon issued proclama- ton authorizing an indebtedness of v2, 900. Cor so much thereof as may be necessary" for the purpose of carry ing on the work of the special com mittee appointed by the legislature to investigate the old charity board con- troversy. The members of the com mittee are Senators J. o. A. Bush and J. l. Carter, and Representatives Ca- zort, Joiner and Young. Most of the members are here and it is announced that the investigation will be resumed soon, and more testimony be taken.
 A proclamation had previously been issued creating an emergent deficiency of $5,000 for the general auditing committee for the various offices and departments. This does not mean that any of the money can be drawn out of the state treasury. The de- ficiencies thus created must be taken care of by the net legislature, and some one must be found who will finance" the committees. This, the committees say, has practically been done.

dered by Miss Pyle. Her most diffi- cult number and perhaps the number most enjoyed, was Eighth Rhap- sody" by Liszt. The two piano num- Der, with MT. Utermoehlen at second piano, deserves much credit, as it is the result of constant and tedious practice.
 Miss Cureton is a violinist of no small ability and talent. Her tone is strong and clear, but very sympathet- ic and her lowing is always smooth, giving great resonance to her tones. The Kreutzer Sonata was one of her most difficult numbers, and was played with the rich, full tone and | fine expression. "The Running Bird' by Drdla, is new, just publish ed this year, and dedicated to Mische Elman, and was rendered with much speed and lightness. The "Espano- la was especially characteristic in interpretation. The Mussin Mazur- ka was the most brilliant number, rendered with fine phrasing and tone quality.
 The last number was a fitting eli max to the evenings program, being Peer Gynt Suite No. 1" by Grieg with an arrangement for violin, flute, cello and piano, played by Misses Cureton, Livingston, Pyle and MT. Utermoehlen.
 An especially gratifying character istic of both young ladies is self-con- fidence, which at once put their audi ence at ease and insures real enjoy ment of the music, and which is lack ing in so many really talented musi- clans.

TWO COMMUTfD,
 TWO CONDEMNED
AND TWO ARE PAROONED
GOVERNOR TAKES ACTION ON SIX CRIMINAL CASES BE-
 FORE HIM.

Little Rock, May 4.-Governor Hays yesterday acted upon four capital cases, three negroes for wife murder and one white man for criminal as sault. Two of the negroes are com muted to life Imprisonment, and one negro and the white man go to the electric chair.
 Neal Mclaughlin. white man, convicted in Franklin county, of as- sault upon one Martha Byford, of Waterloo, is condemned to be electro cuted June 15. A strong effort was made to secure communication of his sentence, on the ground that the of fense was not so great as to demand death. The governor did not consid- CT, however, that a sufficiently strong case for clemency was made out.
 Gillespie Glover, 20-year-old ne- gro of Pulaski county, convicted of killing his wife, was also refused com mutation, and will go to the chair on June II. Glover made several per sonal appeals to the governor by let ter to save his life, declaring that he was not guilty of murder, although admitting that his wife, to whom he had been married but eight months, was killed during an altercation over other men.
 Lem Stephens, Lee county negro who killed his wife, and who had been condemned to death, was granted a communication to life Imprisonment on the recommendation of the presiding judge, and prosecuting attorney.
 James Rivers, alias Jim Fields, a Poinsett county negro, who had been sentenced to electrocution May 31 for the killing of his wife, was granted communication to life Imprisonment He shot his wife with a rifle. The communication was recommended by Judge J. F. Gautney and Prosecuting Attorney M. P. Huddleston, who wrote the governor that the negro lis below the average intelligence"
 The governor pardoned Wm. Mar tin of Benton, convicted of felony and Emmett Bryant of Pulaski, con. victed of forgery.

LONDON. January 9.-In the sordid
surroundings OF GodalminS Police
Cour; there was unfoldcd romance
of the Belgian refugees which has
touched the hearts OF all who heard
1t. The principal character Is Il young
Belgian woman accused OF attempting
TO commit suicide.
Maria PiGneur, tho prisoner, and two
Belgian officers called at Il hotol In
GodhmirE and had luncheon there.
-Afterward Maria went into another
room alone, and there drank a largo
quantity OF Imminent. Aid was quickly
brought II her, ana she recovered
AS the evidence In the Police Court
brought out. I.;uetenant Collard, one OF
he two Belgian officers, had been In
love with the girl, but in Belgium no
officer Is allowed TO marry unless II is
shown that his intended wife has q
dowry OF at least $4,000 francs CsS,0o0>
Lieutenant Collard was wounded early
in the campaign. and brought to a hos
Dital in Antwerp. Here Miss Pigncu
came TO see him every day. She was
In Antwerp throughout the lombard
ment. For four days and nights She
stayed in a cellar without food. All
her clothes were lost In the confusion,
and she had TO make herself some gar
ments by the light OF a candle before
Ehc could leave the city and come to
England
Lieutenant Collard had preceded her
here. They met by accident at rail-
road station. where the lieutenant had
gone TO see a comrade OF to the front.
Apparently the lieutenants devotion
had cooled. II seems that by reason
of thezbom bardnent and the chaos In
Belgium whatever dowry Miss Pigneur
had had was now gone
Three or four days after this Col
lard received n letter from Miss Pig
neur, In which she said that, as he
seemed TO have lost his affection for
her. they had better part. Hc wrote
back saying that this was agreeable
to him. and seemed the best thing
under the circumstances
But little later she sent him a
telegram saying she was coming to
Godalm!ng fer last Interview and en-
PLANTATION.
The woman's story excited general
sympathy In tho courtroom. The po-
lice superintendent who had charge OF
the case said that he would provide
home for tho girl II She were set
free. The magistrate seemed deeply
moved.
