Sunday evening as Miss Irene
Beaver, who resides one miles north
of this city, and Oscar Hudson, en-
ployed on the George johnson farm,
were coming to town, a front wheel
came off the buggy just as the couple
were driving south past Riverside
park in the north suburbs of the

on the side Of the buggy which lost
the wheel, was Immediately thrown
out and after the horse had run a
few rods, Miss Beaver was also
thrown from the vehicle. The
frightened animal ran south up the
hill and into the old Chautauqua
park where it lodged the buggy be-
tween two posts and threw itself.
Miss Beaver sustained dislocat-

brother has been specializing on their
interest in me merely as woman"
Mollie was magnificent in her til
rade and she quite cowed Dick, who
regarded has as something quite diff
ferent from anything he had found in
his previous experience with women.
But l had to smile-when neither of
them could see meas Mollie's own
speculation had been from the first
on whether either or both men were
in love with her. Down deep in her
heart Mollie knows, as does every
woman in whom men are interested,
that these mems interest in her was
not wholly pride in her clever brain,
but she was playing the game
time like woman-and she did not
intend to retire until she had an
avowal of love from either one or
both of them.
In the meantime l am not sure
that she did not hoodwink herself as
well as Dick with her ideas of bust
ness and brains in opposition to love
and sex attraction.
She probably was not aware at this
moment that she had had the same
suspicious as Dick. She was making
out her case in the best possible man
ner, forgetting when men and women
come together, either in business or
social life, you cannot ignore sex.
However, in spite of all this analy-
sis and it's conclusions, think
Mollie is right not to run away at the
first breath of gossip. know would
do just as she is doing, but l am very
curious to know what lies behind in
Chadwick Hatton's life that he must
eschew women, especially unmarried
ones.

It is astonishing how excited
everyone is over the article that ap-
peared in the paper with it's insin-
uations about Mollie and Mr.. Hat
ton, and it is also astonishing to note
the way in which the different peo-
pie took it.
In the first place Mollie herself was
very cool about it until Dick suggest
ed that she should leave town. Then
she got furiously angry.
will you tell me, please, just why
l should be made to leave my home
and my work because lot of vile
minded men have decided to make
me the victim of political holiday?
If anyone can see any real harm in
me lunching with Pat and Mr.. Hat

his eyes upon it. have never in my

What do you insinuate, Dick Wav-

Expected Rache-Denman operators Will Accept $2OO,OOO and End
 Arkansas Trouble.

Fort Smith, Jan. 1.-The United Mine Workers of America have of fered $200,O00 for the holding of the Bache-Denman Coal Company in the Hartford valley of Arkansas, it became known here last night.
 It is believed that the deal will be consummated within few days and thus bring to an end the troubles in the coal mining region.
 Under the terms of the offer all difficulties growing out of troubles between the coal company and min CTS are to be dropped.
 This would include the dismissal of the company's suit for $1,45O,000 damages against the United Mine Workers, the local unions in Arkan- sas. Oklahoma and Texas and the na- tional officers in connection with the destruction last July of four of the

REMOVE CAUSE, THEN
 REDUCE PUNISHMENT
T R. Miller Advances Sensible Sug- eestion About Abolition of Elec-
 tric Death Chair.
(From Mondays Daily Press )

II notice in your paper where a bill will be introduced in the general assembly of Arkansas to abolish le- gal executions" said J. R. Miller, one of the most substantial citizens of Greene county, Saturday. II hope the legislature will not pass this bill until after the liquor traffic has been driven out of Arkansas. Even then would not be in favor of the aboli- tion of capital punishment in cases where the crime is that heinous, un- mAtionable and brutally shocking one in which innocent girls and wo- men are the victims. But for all oth = or felonies I would favor law chang ing the punishment from death To imprisonment, provided the people of Arkansas, either by a direct vote un- der initiative, or through legislative enactment, removed the cause of ninety per cent of our crime. l re- fer. of course, to the liquor evil. As long as the state foists upon society this iniuuitous traffic that has done nothing since the beginning of the human family but produce want, woe, misery, insanity and crime, 1t should afford to society the maxi mum protection by strict enforce ment of the death penalty where the atrocity of the crime merits that ex- treme punishment.
 q am not foolish enough to think that all crime would stop when whis- ky is banished, but I have common sense enough and l have observed conditions long enough to know that the poison that debauches man 5 morals. brutalizes all his impulses, converts happy homes into squaloc and collects it's blood toll from inno- cent women and children, fills our fails, poor houses, insane asylumS and penitentiarieS with hopeless hu- man wrecks-I know this imp of per dition is responsible for most of our crime. and I believe the Christian cit izenship of this state is more con- cerned in the protection ot our homes. in safeguarding the morals of our boys and girls and in producing sturdy, stalwart manhood, and strong minded virtuous, Christian womanhood than in splitting hairs over whether red-handed murderer shall forfeit his miserable life in the electric chair or spend his remaining days in servitude for the state.

GOVERNOR ADVISED TO
 MIND OWN BUSINESS

Little Rock, Jan. 11.-Arkansas politicians who are interested in the organization of the general assembly, spent most anxious day Sunday, the Lundy supporters being alert to pre- vent a break in their line, and the Smith managers leaving nothing un- turned to bring over one man ill or der to elect their candidate president of the senate. It was reported on all sides that money was being freely offered, and the favorite yarn was that a grip containing $3O00 was conveniently placed, to be handed the Lundy supporter who would re- nounce his pledge, and go to the other side.
 When the Lundy caucus closed at midnight Saturday, the Smith men began to work on the Lundy sup porters whom they thought might be changed They centered fire on Ed gar V. Overman of Dallas countg, whom they had expected to line up with the Smith contingent. Over man was requested to accompany ! prominent Arkansan to the office of a leading firm of Little Rock attor- neys, and accepted the invitation. H } found the room we'll filled with poli- ticians of note, and it is reported that Gov. Hays was among them. Up to this time Gov. Hays had not ap- peared openly in the contest. One present is authority for the state ment that after Gov. Hays and oth- CTS had labored with Senator Over man that he informed them he knew about as much about his business as they and departed.
 Both headquarters of candidates for president of the senate were prac- tically deserted Sunday the workers evidently keeping under cover. Sen ator Lundy declared that his sup porters would stick, for they were pledged to him in writing, and no power could make the men break such an obligation. Senator Smith stated Sunday morning that he had not ceased to work, for one deserte~ from the Lundy camp would make him a winner, and he expected to se- cure this muchly needed vote.
 Until the general assembly con- venes at noon, the Lundy forces can not cease to fear the opposition, for the Smith managers have declined to enter caucus, delaying until the session has convened with the hope of breaking the Lundy alignment.
 The fight for the speakership will require several ballots, so no result can be expected before the end of the first days session, and this means that it will require several days to finally organize so the gen. eral assembly can get down to busi- ness. The message of Gov Hays will be read in joint session Thursday, z the organization is completed by that time.
