her modest gift to the Log Cabin Democrat office today, and though she is not a suffragist she said she
 wished for once that she could vote in order that she might cast her bal lot for Woodrow Wilson, whom she regards as the greatest Democrat that has ever been president. She says she first took an interest in a presidential campaign when James
 K. Polk was the choice of the Dem- ccracy and as a little Mississippi girl she echoed the shouts of her father and grand father for the ante-bellum president. This fine old woman, who during long life of hardship and self denial and who even now is doing her own house. work, has always maintained sweet and lovable disposition and not even her closest friends know the extent of the charities that have come from
 her slender means. "I haven't seen where the women have been giving anything to this fund.-" she said to- day, "and thought maybe if 1 start

ANOTHER STOCK DISTRICT PLANNED EMBRACES 4 TOWNSHIPS Petitions Asking Law in First Dis trict, Embracing Eight Town
 ships, is Filed.

More than half of the territory of Faulkner county will be incorporated in two general stock law districts if the plans of those interested in the matter succeed at the November election. Following the filing today of largely signed petitions for six of the eight townships embraced in a district proposed some weeks ago and comprising the entire western half of Faulkner county with the exception of Pine Mountain and Dan ley townships, another petition was started today for the formation of a second district which will embrace four more townships. These four townships are Enola, Harve, New ton and Mathews. They lie in a body, forming almost a square, in the north central portion of the coun- ry and adjoIn on the east the other proposed district
 Sentiment ls said to be strongly in favor of the general stock law in all l2 of the townships The petitions for the first district were filed to- day, with the exception of those for Cadron and Benedict townships, which are to be presented later. In Walker, California, Union, Hardin, Clifton and East Fork townships it was stated that no difficulty at all was experienced in securing the re- quired number of signers, which is 25 per cent of the vote cast at the preceding general election. The smallest petition, it was stated, con- tained at least twice the required number, and in California township petition was left at a store at Guy and more than 100 farmers volun- tarily came in to sign it.
 The question will be voted upon at the general election November '. If a majority of those voting on the question vote in favor of the stock law it will thereafter be unlawful for horses, cattle, sheep, goats or hogs to run at large within the territory of the district, and fences will be re- quired only to keep stock in pastures, rather than to keep them out of cul- tivated lands.

GLOOM OYFRSHADOWS
 BULLDOGS PROSPECTS
Chances of Coping Game With Lit tie Rock College Remote,
 Coach Says.

Another hard scrimmage session was doled out to the Hendrix Bull dogs yesterday afternoon by Coach Bill Headrick, and as resulted Mon- day, the display of the gridders was anything but pleasing to the coach, he said today. A pail of gloom has settled upon the athletic field, the students seem displeased at the squads work and little interest is manifested on the campus. There must be some radical changes take place in the next two days if the Bulldogs hope to make any kind of decent showing before the Little Rock College outfit Saturday. The clash with the Catholics, which will occur on Kavanaugh field, Little Rock, will open the season for both teams. Coach Bill said today he ex- poets to take his first team to Lit tie Rock, and he expects to use every man, and there will be 15 of them. The team which has been picked for the opening fracas averages 166 2-3 pounds. The capital cltyanS may outweigh he Bulldogs, but if our boys put up the class of Rugby they are capable of putting up, and not the kind they have been displaying the past week, they might trim the proteges of Coaches Quigley and keeney. Little Rock College hereto fore has been classed with the high schools of the state, but this year they are entered in the college di- vision. Coach Qpieley, formerly of Arkansas College, who last year turned out one of the toughest teams in the state, has joined the Catholics brigade of tutors, and it is believed he will be of material value in whip ping the Collegians into shape for Saturdays melee. Several automo- bile parties from Conway will wit ness the game from the sidelines.
