TO SAVE
 THREE FROM CHAIR COMPUTATIONS SOUGHT FOR MIA AUGHLIN, DEWEIN AND STRONG, CONDEMNED TO
 DIE NEWT MONTH.

Little Rock, Nov. 8.-Further legal proceedings are expected during the coming week in an effort to save Neil Mclaughlin, Clarence Dewein and Joe Strong from electrocution on Decem- Der IA and 15. If these fail strong pressure will be brought to bear upon Governor Hays to get him to at least commute the sentences to life impris- onment.
 Officials of the penitentiary and many residents of Franklin county, where Mclaughlin was convicted, be- lieve him innocent. They assert that had the proper legal steps been taken, Mclaughlin would today been free man. Mclaughlin was convicted of criminal assault. His relatives and attorney permitted the time to elapse for an appeal, and all efforts to get the matter before the supreme court on the merits of the case have since failed.
 There is little in the Dewein and Strong case but sentiment, but this is very strong. There seems to be little doubt of the guilt of these youths. They were mere runaway boys, who tried working in a gravel pit at Ben ton and found it too heavy for them. They heard that l.. H. Thompson, an aged merchant of that town, kept con- cealed large amounts of money about his store. They decided to rob him, and went to the store after dark, and in scuffle which followed, one of the boys tapped the aged victim on the head with an iron coupling pin. The skull of the merchant was fractured and he died a short time after. De- vein was captured in Benton a few days later and Strong in Louisiana. Neither boy had ever been in trouble before, and their demeanor since be- ing incarcerated in the penitentiary over a year ago, shows that neither is of vicious temperament. Those who have interested themselves in the boys behalf insist that life imprison- ment is sufficient punishment for them. They insist that had the stat utes not made the crime of deadly as- sault while in the act of committing a felony first degree murder, the boys could never have been convicted of murder in that degree.

FARM NOTES.
(From the Normal Echo.)

Under the excellent management of MT. Holloway the Normal farm is rapidly assuming it's place as one of the important assets of the institu- tion.
 Four and one half acres of sweet potatoes yielded 820 bushels this year. One acre was set in cuttings partly as an experiment and the yield was from a third to half of that from slips. The potatoes are all stored in the potato house and will be used at the girls dormitory.
 One fifth of an acre was planted in the spring in Irish potatoes from which 80 bushels were dug. This same patch now has splendid crop of fall potatoes.
 A great many of the trees in the orchard are too young to bear yet, but all have been sprayed and prun- ed, and are in splendid condition. The entire orchard is now planted in peanuts and the yield is good.
 The cows are fat and healthy and

Parish, Louisiana.

MT. Womble graduated last year. and was unquestionably one of the strongest members of his class. He made an enviable record, one of which any man should be proud. He took a very active part in student activities, and his fellow students frequently honored him with posi- tions of responsibility and trust. During his senior year, he was an as- sistant librarian, editor-in-chief of the Mirror and president of the Har- Ian Society. Other positions that he held during his college course were as follows: Member of Troubadour staff, secretary of Y. M. c. A. 1914-15, Harlan open session debater, Joint open session debater, and inter- collegiate debater 1914. In 1914 he won the mathematics prize, and last year he won the scholarship prize and the Morror poem prize MT. Womble has never taken an active part in athletics, but he has always support ed it. He has never been seriously ill, which accounts probably for his present avoirdupois.
 Mir. Womble is now an assistant in the academy, occupying the place made vacant by the resignation of| Prof. w. w. Parker. He will teach a while before entering upon his life l work.

26 YOUNG WOMEN 10 60
OF ELECTION BEING MAILED FROM GOV
 ERNOR'S OFFICE.

Little Rock, Nov. 5.-Certificates of election are being mailed from the governors office to the 26 young women in as many counties who won the county sponsor contest inaugu- rated by the Panama-Pacific Commis- sion.

 Mir. Holloway has had some hot beds built and now has fine crop of lettuce He expects to have lettuce all winter. He also has patch of young cabbage from which he expects winter crop.
 The flowers in the greenhouse are beautiful but we are not disposed to give Mir. Holloway full credit for these; for we have seen Mrs. Doyne around there quite frequently, and It is not improbable that she has more than a little interest there. The barns are overfowing with hay, the silo is filled to it's capacity, furnishing an abundance of feed for the cattle during the winter season.
 The entire farm has been sowed Tn wheat, rye or oats as cover crops. The oats will likely be allowed to ma ture. Besides furnishing a splendid fall pasture the present indications points to bountiful yield of oats.
 The cattle, hogs and poultry add much to the value of the farm. There are now about seventy hogs being fattened, besides a plenty of stock hogs. The king of all is the big red fellow who weighs about 600 pounds gross.
 There are about three hundred grown chickens which produce an abundance of eggs for the dormitory girls. Incubators and breeders are used to a great advantage. Hun- dreds of young chicks can be seen over the yards now.

 I am glad both state and county primaries are to be held together, but March is little early for thin ming out. The old Democrats will be able to stand, but the Socialists will 20 down to never rise again. Those grand old principles of Calhoun and Jefferson and Jackson and all the sages and statesmen gone will be able to stand. John c. Calhoun, in the United States senate March 21, 1882, announced precisely the same doc Urine that Democracy stands upon to- day. These grand principles will never die.
 The Sunday school at this place IS doing good work, and we have got a good singing class.

Who's Who lH s'iH Hs"'
(From the Bulldog ]

Benjamin Clean Womble first open ed his eyes to the beauties of this world on September 3, 1881. He was too modest and unassuming to give his mother any trouble. So he took the world easy, and never allowed visions of future trouble or glory to fit across his youthful mind. His birthplace was in Nevada County. Ark, about 20 miles south of Pres cott He was reared on a farm, and MT. Womble will smile knowingly if he happens to hear "goods box orator boasting about following "Old Beck" for his youthful occupation.
 MT. Wombles early schooling was meagre, though he partially made up for lost time by pursuing his studies at home. At the age of 21 he enter ed the Camden public school. The following conversation took place be- tween him and the principal of the school when MT. Womble presented himself as student:
 Principal: What grade do you think you will be able to enter, MT. Womble" Womble: "The second grade I SUD- pose. You have three grades, haven't you?"
 Anyway he was put in the eighth grade, and made an excellent record, ranking among the very best in a class of 30. It is rather remarkable, but, after attending school at Cam den one year, he made a first grade certificate and taught school in the summer. He taught parts of sum- mers and winters for three years, at tending school between times. At IS years of age he was licensed to preach by the Methodist Protestant church. At 19 he received a noun tain appointment in Polk county from that church. The following year he received another appointment in Garland and Montgomery coun- ties. He had fairly good success as a preacher, but he keenly felt the need of a better education, and this caused him to enter school at the close of the second year.
 In 1905, he quit school and accepted position in the Texarkana circuit He gave up this charge after five months because of poor support. For few months every winter and sum- mer for four years, he taught in the country schools of Miller county. He attended Henderson-Brown College (then Henderson College) in the spring of 1907. During the summer of 1907 he became acquainted with Miss Joanna Fenley. Immediately Cupid began his deadly work, and on September 12, 1908, the quiet and unassuming Benjamin was trans formed into MT. Womble, the stately and dignified husband. In February, 1908, he entered Hendrix for the first time. He was also a Hendrix student the following school year 1908-'O9. In 1910-'12 he was principal of the DeValls Bluff public school. In the autumn of 1911 he assisted in organ izing the Prairie County Teachers Association of which he became the first president. At the close of his second year at DeValls Bluff he re- signed and re-entered Hendrix in September 1912.
 MT. Womble has been very success ful as teacher, and his services have been continually sought. He has taught in the public schools of Ouachita, Miller, Prairie, Union and Lincoln counties; also in Webster
