AUSTIN JOSNSON FOR
ASSESSOR.

The Log Cabin Democrat publishes
this week the formal announcement
of Austin Johnson as a candidate for
a second term as tax assessor of
Faulkner county, subject to the action
of the Democratic primary election on
March 20, 1916.
Although man of family, Mr..
Johnson realizes the need of better
education, and out of his savings
from his first years compensation as
assessor he is now paying the ex-
penses Of attending the State Normal.
Desiring to pursue his studies fur
Their and at the same time provide for
his family, he is asking the Democrats
of Faulkner county to return him to
a second term in his present position.
He states that in making the first as
sessment he has endeavored to be fair
and impartial and that while there
was a decrease in the total assessed
values in the county, he felt that the
hard times due to six-cent cotton last
year, justified a reduced assessment
by many taxpayers, especially among
the farmers. Mr. Johnson was an
easy winner among large field OF
candidates in the primary two years
ago and his friends believe a large
majority of the voters will favor him
for a second term.

FORMER CONWAY'WOMAN
TAKES FOURTH HUSBAND
MRS. PEARL HOGAN-SMITH-
LUYET LICENSED TO WE'D
FOLLOWING DIVORCE.
From SATURDAYS Day.

From Saturdays Da'v
A fourth husband is to be taken
by Mrs. Pearl Luyet, whose marital
troubles have been prominently in the
courts of Faulkner and Pulaski coun-
ties in recent years, according to a
story in this mornings Little Rock
Gazette. Although only SO, Mrs.
Luyet has borne the name of Hogan,
Smith and Luyet in the past few
years, and Immediately following a
divorce granted her yesterday from
Joe Luyet, license was issued for her
marriage to James F. Garner, "a, of
Argenta. Her first husband died and
her second was divorced.
The divorce complaint against
Luyet stated that the plaintiff and
the defendant were married at Nor
rilton April 5, 1913. The plaintiff
alleged that soon after marriage her
husband began a course of abuse,
which ended only when he deserted
her. This, the complaint alleged, was
when he fled from Conway, where he
was bound over to the Faulkner coun-
ty grand jury after preliminary ex-
animation on felony charge.
Mrs. Luyet or Mr.. Garner could not
be located last night, and it is not
known whether they are married.

Arkansas Gazette, Nov. IS.

Arkansas Gazette, Nov. Is.
DR.. Frank B. Young, superintend-
ent of the State Hospital for Nervous
Diseases, resigned, effective December
81. His resignation was rendered at
o'clock yesterday afternoon. In the
same motion by which the board of
control accepted the resignation, the
position was rendered to DR.. j. l..
Greene of Hot Springs, whom DR..
Young succeeded. DR.. Greene, &C
cording to members of the board, will
come to Little Rock this afternoon or
tonight to confer with the board mem
bers. At Hot Springs last night he
declined to say whether he would &C
cept.
Members of the board last night
declined to discuss the developments
that led up to DR.. Young's resigna-
ton. 1t is known, however, that the
relations between DR.. Young and the
board members had not been friendly
for some time and that change was
contemplated before the death of
James Surridge, a member of the
board.
1t is reported on good authority
that if DR.. Greene does not accept,
DR.. w. A. Abingdon of Bebee will be
elected. Members of the board de-
clined to comment on this report.
Dr. Young was elected superintend-
ent by the old charities board last
December when DR.. Greene resigned
and at the same time made charges
of mismanagement against the old
board and it's secretary, r. w. Hart.
DR.. Greene's resignation was follow
ed by Governor Hays dismissal of the
members of the old charities board
and the appointment of new board,
on which were two members of the
old board who had supported Dr.
Greene. Members of the old board
continued to claim they were entitled
to hold office until shortly before the
converting of the legislature. The
controversy resulted in the legisla-
lures abolishing the old charities
board and creating the present board
of control. The legislature also ap-
pointed committee to investigate the
affairs of the old charities board.

BULLDOGS DEFEAT
PfDACOCUtS, I6-7
GAME HOLLY CONTESTED
HENDRIX PILES UP ALL ITS
SCORE WHILE BROOKS Is
OUT OF THE CONTEST
From Fridays Daily

From fridays DAILY
The Hendrix College Bulldogs and
the State Normal Pedagogues yester.
day afternoon staged one of the hard.
est fought football battles ever seen
on Russell field, the Bulldogs emerg.
ing from the fracas with the larger
end of 16 to score 1t was the
Normals' first defeat of the season
and Hendrix first victory. Also it
was the Bulldogs eighth annual tri-
umph over the Teachers. The game
was witnessed by nearly 800 people.
To "Piggie' Sinclair, Coach Bill
Hendricks trim quarterback, is due
the most of the glory. "Piggie"
scored both of the Bulldogs touch
downs and kicked field goal, his to-
tai points being Is. Captain "Bink'
Giles added the other point by kicking
goal, following touchdown.
For the Normal, Joe Brooks, GEN.
ter, probably was the most valuable
player. Both the attack and the de-
Tense of the Teachers are built
around joe During the time he was
in the game, the Bulldogs did not
score, although they got within few
feet of the Normals' line several
times. But in the second period, Joe
sustained an injury which kept him
on the sideline the entire quarter.
Then it was that the Hendrix lads
piled up their 16 points.
Hendrix failed to score in the first
quarter, but seven minutes after play
was called in the second quarter
"Piggie" Sinclair kicked field goal
from the 25-yard line. New conf
dence seemed to be born in the Bull
dogs Immediately, and before the Pc
Rod ended Sinclair had twice planted
the pigskin behind the Educators
goal posts, Giles kicking one goal.
The third quarter, like the first,
was an even proposition, the ball
see-sawing up and down the field.
Each team had opportunities IN this
period but failed to use them. The
ball was in Hendrix possession on
her own 25-yard line when time was
called.
The Normal, tired but still fighting
gamely, now pinned their hope OF
scoring on the aerial route, style
of play they had not attempted often
in the early periods. After Jess Legg
intercepted a pass in midfield, the
Pedagogues staged forward march
toward the Bulldogs standards. Fiji
teen yards were covered on TWO
passes. Then "Skinnem" Clark, the
life of the Normal team, received
pretty forward pass from Dutch
Moore and romped 80 yards for the
Teachers only touchdown. Moore
kicked goal, making the score, Hen
dirk 16, Normal Z.
