The metropolitan police department yes
terday received probably the most mys-
FERROUS case in its history when a cor

body of the Hill woman was found nine

An editor out in Kansas says
there are seven reasons why men do
not go to church, namely: "The
Sunday newspaper, the automobile,
tiresome sermons, the collection
basket, failure to reach the barber
shop on time Saturday night, mis-
placed collar buttons and the lure
of the Sunday morning nap Doubt
less there are other reasons that
might be added to the list, but as
they are neither better nor worse
than those the Kansas man has CIV
en-, we are willing to let it go at that.
Newspaper men and some others
who have to work seven days in
week do not need any excuse. Some
of them hardly have time to get ac-
quainted with their families.

His Moral Sense.

Apropos of another scandal in the New York bar, Bishop Winston C. Ru- therford said, in Mobile:
 "The morals of the New York bar seem to be about like those of Colonel Byrne, no better and no worse. The colonel, Kentuckian, defended some men for breaking into bank It was testified that the burglary was com mitted on the night of August 20. Two witnesses passing the bank long after midnight testified that they saw a light flash twice in the vault room and heard suspicious noises. On the nighc in question there happened to be a brilliant full moon.
 At this point Colonel Byrne pro duced an almanac showing that on the night in question there had been no moon whatever. Thereupon a great laugh resomGed through the court room and the defendants were speed fly acquitted.
 "Colonel,' said the defendants aft erward, "how much do we owe you ?'
 You owe me five hundred dollars, :" replied the colonel.
 "Ain't that pretty steep? 2"
 No when you consider that get only one hundred dollars out of it."
 Why, what did you do with the other four hundred dollars? Bribe the jury ?"
 No. sir" shouted the colonel hotly, DO you think I have no moral sense Why, it cost me four hundred dollars to get that almanac prin,ed!"

METHODIST MINISTER'S
 WANT CLOSER SOCIETY

That closer union of Methodist ministers be affected. preachers and pastors of many charges in this State last night convened at the First Meth odlst Church, Eighth and Center streets, and perfected the organiza- ton of the Arkansas Association of Methodist Ministers. While the rep resentation last night was excellent. many ministers were unable to attend the meeting and sent letters in which they expressed themselves as favor able to the organization.
 The Rev. B. A. Few of Prescott, originator of the plan, was elected president, the Rev. John B. Andrews of Sloan Springs, vice president, and the Rev. T. P. Clark of DeValls Bluff secretary and treasurer. All minis ters including both Northern and Sou thern Methodists, are eligible to mem- bership in the organization. It is estimated there are 200 Methodist iiiiiioISio III lillS DCdlc. w WlUnlH the next two months the first annual meeting of the association will be held here. It was decided that all yearly conventions be held in Little Rock. It is believed that many of the Methodist ministers of the State will be present at the annual meetings.
 After the conclusion of business last night the ministers adjourned until the first annual meeting is called
 The Rev. Mr. Few started actual work on the organization only two weeks ago, and because notification to the Methodist ministers of the State was sent out shortly before the date set for the meeting many were ab- sent from the business meeting last night.

of morals in the state. It stood for state wide prohibition, and until it did that reform did not stand a ghost of show It stands for law enforce ment, the sacricity of the home and the equality of opportunity If it did not do so the state would not today be the fair spot she is and her insti- tutions would not be a credit to her as they now are.
 Why then this unwarranted attack upon the press by few little half baked' petty dabblers who are the sort who have, in the past, brought re- proach upon the Arkansas Legisla- ture?
 We are glad however to record that the people of the state are becoming more thoughtful and discriminating now than in past times and want real men. Only a few of the present leg islature are of the insipid type. Most of the members are men of hon. or and dignity and above the assinine qualities of the narrow eyed croakers who seek to vent their spleen upon the press. We do not know why these little men have a grudge against the press. but We do know that a man who is too small to rise above personal grudges is not 1-10 big enough to be a legislator of any state.
 May good old Arkansas be spared from them in future legislatures.- Murfreesboro Messenger.
