OVERLAND DEALER HAS
 4 FINE SALES RECORD
Garter of Denver Sells 700 Cars Since June 3-Visits Salt River Valley
 on Tour of Southwest

Seven hundred cars placed since June third, that's the record so far this sea son for Distributor Carter of Denver, Colorado. distributor for the Overland line in that district, and at present a visitor in the Salt River valley.
 Carter drove through from Denver in an Overland Model S6, and made the distance, 1905 miles in six days run ming time and reports very pleasant trip. He will spend several weeks here touring and expects to visit the RoOse- welt dam soon.
 Carter has been selling Overland cars for seven years and is one of the com many's best-knoWn dealers It is esti- mated that his district will use from 1900 to 1900 cars this season, but Car ter says this shouldn't be considered as so remarkable when the completeness of the Overland line, its reputation and the factory'S service policy were con- sidered. Tn converse tion with a group of Overland dealers at the Huntsman- Hotchkiss garage yesterday Carter said good as several ordinary One-model lines put together. and that dealers who handled several lines of cars were making a mistake, that they could give their customers better service, get bet ter support from the factories. etc, if they would confine their efforts to pushing one car.

 Minor Reed, clever scenic artist of the Ed Redmond forces will prepare the scenic portion of the opening play from photographs of the original New York production. The scene shows in elaborate detail the home of a young millionaire who has spent his money with a lavish hand on rare paintings and art objects. As the plot of the play centers about the theft of the collection, the art objects must be minutely correct and con- vey properly how a young man with money to burn has lavished a fortune in the curio shops of Europe.
 Beside the stage setting the young artist has prepared two elaborate drop curtains. The much abused ad- vertising curtain has given place to an artistic drop painted in a rich royal purple effect while the fire proof curtain will display a scene of the Roosevelt dam with the wind ing road about. the huge mountains

HELD ON CHARGES OF COUN[FRfE|TINC NODDED LEAD NICKELS MINOR HARKRIDER AND NATH- AN STARR OF CONWAY FACE
 FEDERAL CHARGE.

Charged with the crime of counter feltlng, Minor Harkrider and Nathan starr, white men living near Conway were taken to Little Rock to face the 'harge in federal court today. The men, who were arrested Saturday night by Deputy United States Mar 5hal C. o. Payne, are alleged to have been molding and passing in Conway nVe-cent pieces made of lead
 The "coin" which the men are charged with having passed for mon. ey IS one of the crudest sort of coun. tertelts ever exhibited here and it is dlfhcult to see how anyone could be deceived by it. It appears, however that several of them got by" in locaI stores and one of the merchants, re. memberlng from whom he received the bad money, notified Deputy w. E Cllbourn, who after making an inves. tlgatlon communicated with the Unit ed States marshal's office, with the result that Deputy Payne came UT and made the arrests Saturday night
 The officers state that several o1 the counterfeit coins were found or the men, and a crude mold in which they were said to have been cast wal found at Harkrider's home, on the Lea place, one mile south of Conway
 When arrested Starr admitted his guilt very freely, but Harkrider de nled any connection with the offense After the arrest the men were kept separated, and one of the officers stat ed that Harkrider's daughter, a IA year-old girl, admitted yesterday that her father and Starr had both beer engagS>. in manufacturing the bogus coin for some time. She was taken te Little Rock with the men this morn. ing, to be used as a witness at the hearing.
 Both Harkrider and Starr are mar. ried and have families and both have lived in the county practically all their lives. Their arrest on the se rious charge was a great surprise te their friends.
