DIR. K. |. HINTON PION-
 FER CITIZEN, DEAD
Business Houses of Prescott Close During Funeral Services Died at Age of S6 Years at Home of Daughter.

Dr. R. L. Hinton, aged 86 years, died yesterday morning, June 4th, at .9 o'clock at the home of his daugh- ter, Mrs. H. E. Doris, East Walnut and Third streets in this city, after a few days illness. Dr. Hinton had been in his usual health until last Thursday, when he began to weaken. He spent the afternoon up town with friends and when he was returning home about 6 o'clock suffered an at- tack of heart failure from which he never recovered.
 Dr. Hinton was probably one of the first business men of the city. He was the proprietor of Hinton Drug Company's store in Prescott for long period and was also one of the leading physicians of the city. Since his retirement and up until his death he has been engaged in fitting glasses.
 Dr. Hinton is survived by two sons, pr. A. Hinton, of Marked Tree, and L. E. Hinton, of Little Rock, and two daughters, Mrs H. K. Doris of this city, and Mrs. Will Brown, of Arka- delphia.
 As a token of respect and high es- teem in which the deceased is held by Prescott citizens, every business house was closed during the funeral services this afternoon, from 2:30 until 3 pm. The beautiful and abundant floral tokens from Prescott's citizens and out of town friends and relatives also showed the esteem in which Dr. Hinton was held by every one.
 The services were held at the First Methodist church this afternoon at 2:30 and were conducted by the pastor Rev. N. c. Augustus and Rev. T. D. Scott, of Hope, formerly pastor of the Methodist church here. The active pail bearers were as follows: Thos. c. McRae, o. R. McDaniel, E. Y. Blakely, Levi Moore, B. H. Logan, and A. F. Logan. The honorary pail bearers were Col. C. A. Thornton, C. NJ. Buchanan, Capt, w. R. White, T. IS. Bryan, Alex Vaughan and o. R. F. Whitten.

CONGRESS TO MARK TIME.
dany Senators and Representatives Will Attend Political Conventions.

Washington, June 4.-Under an agreement reached by party leaders to permit senators and representatives to attend the national conventions, Congress will do little but mark time during the coming two weeks. The Senate will not meet until Thursday, and then only to recess again after complying perfunctorily with the con- stitutional provision limiting recess periods.
 While the house will continue it's daily sessions, only routine business will be considered and the proceedings will be virtually on a unanimous con- sent basis.
 Scores of members of both houses have left for Chicago and enough more probably will go to St. Louis later this week to reduce attendance at the capitol to the smallest percent age it has reached during any session of Congress for several years.
 Speaker Clark, Democratic Leader kitchin and Republican Leader Mann, however, will remain here during the convention period.

Justice Hughes Has Nothing to Say"
 as to Whether He Will Accept.

Washington, June 3.-Justice Hughes today declined to take the op- portunity to put himself definitely out of the running for the Republican nomination for president.
 His advocates here seized upon this fact as a clear intimation that Hughes would not refuse the nomination.
 This flat question was put up to Justice Hughes through his secretary this morning: "Will Justice Hughes accept the nomination if it is offered him ?"
 "He has nothing to say on that point" Secretary Green replied.
