PROSECUTION RESTS
IN BRE WEIR TRIAL
DEFTNSE BEGINS INTRODUCTION
OF DIRECT TESTIMoNY-cAR-
AWAY ASSISTS STATE.

JONESBORO, Ark, Nov, 19-In the
case of state VS.. Brewer, charged with
murder in the first degree for the kill
ing of Garland Driver, the state rest
ed its case at II o'clock today except
for rebuttal, and the remainder of
the day was spent in hearing testi-
ny for the defendant.
Congressman T. H. Caraway, one of
the most noted criminal lawyers in
the state, has been engaged to assist
in the case for the state, having been
employed by the relatives of Driver.
Interest in the case continues, and
the court room is crowded to it's full
capacity all the time.
Brewer is charged with shooting
Driver from ambush. The victim was
a brother of Judge William Driver,
well known jurist of Arkansas, and
the prominence of both families is re-
sponsible for the unusual interest
shown. Judge Silas D. Campbell, of
Newport, is presiding at the trial.

SPLENDID PROGRAMS.

The expression and music class Of

lents and was a great compliment
Miss Petty's work in that school.
It was the most enjoyable and high
ast class affair ever given in that
neighborhood. County Superintend-

ing the morning program, and it was
regrettable upon the part of the facul-
ty and student body that Mr.. Graham
could not accept the urgent invita-
ton extended to him to remain for
the afternoon performance.

for appointment by President Wilson
on the Court OF Claims at Washing
ton. d. c. Many are the prospective
candidates for Congress In the 18th
District who are entirely willing to
have the appointment made Con-
gresham Smith is about as hard .
mt for an opponent to crack as Is
found in the great state of Texas. Not
only has he had things pretty well
his way In his own Congressional
district, but likewise has he been
able to block very successfully those
who might desire to gerrymander his
district bit for him. why should not
the ambitious cnes in his district en-
dorse him for the Court OF Claims?-
