DR.. SHELDON S. THAYER
(Chewanean Press, Pa.sley)

IcoS, TdIblty)
An hour of gloom has come upon all
the citizens OF our community. A loved
and honored member has been rudely
called away by the silent finisher of
our earthly destinies.
DIR. Sheldon S. Thayer died at 2:3O
O'clock last Saturday afternoon at his
home in Paisley. While it has been
known for some time that he was grad
ually sinking, 1t did not In any degree
lessen the tragedy of his demise.
About two months ago DR.. Thayer
and family left for The Dalles, Oregon,
where they were joined by several of
their relatives. While at The Dalles
Mrs. Thayer underwent a serious oper-
alton and after seeing her safely
through the operation and nicely
started on the road to recovery, the
Doctor and balance of the party re-
turned to Paisley expecting Mrs.
| Thayer to follow in short time. Ap-
parently the trip caused too much ex-
ertion for DR.. Thayer, who drove the
car, as he was siezed with hemmor-
hage Immediately after his arrival in
Paisley. The attack siezed him
when he stepped from the car at the
end of the trip. That was just three
weeks before his death. DR.. Ballard
Of Lakeview was summoned that night

CIRCUIT COURT
 MAKES RECORD FOR QUICK WORK Civil Suit Filed, Decided and Judgment Satisfied in Two
 Hours.
CHARGE AGAINST
 SHIP DISMISSED
Only Living Witness Against Young White Man. Accused of .AS>auitiny Convict Guard. Is Fugitive
 Convict.

Wha; is believed to be a record foa rapid handl ng of civil suit was made in the Jefferson circuit court yesterday afternoon. when com plaint was filed, judgment rendered, the proceedings entered in the rec ord and the judgment satisfied within less than two hours.
 It was shortly after 1 o'clock when attorneys for William Jenkins, admin
 strator of the estate of Charles Smith, deceased. f led suit against B. F. Bush, receiver of the St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern railway, for alleged damages sustained by the death of Smith. The railroad filed answer disclaiming liability, but ex pressed willingness to consent to a judgment for $20O, and this was entered bySsC rcuit Judge Sorrells, who found that Lucy Smith had not been supported by the deceased and was. therefore, not entitled to recover anything.
 That the proceedings could be entered on the record at once indi- cates the efficiency maintained in the circuit clerks office, because in most counties the cireu' cl TX is behind with this work. The proceedings must be entered in sequence. and thus though case may have been dis posed of it cannot be entered until all previous proceedings have been recorded.
 Before 3 o'clock the case had been enter;d, the money paid to attorneys for plaintiff. and the proper entry made on the record, showing the liti- gatiOn.

 versity to That Plaee

Little Rock, May 30.-(Special).. .. One ol the prospective fights before the coming session of the Legislature will De the biennial agitatieh for the removal ef the University otsArkansas iron. Fayetteville to Little Rock. This has been an issue for many years, but it has never made any greatheadway.
 Gov. Hays is taking hand in the project now,. His first announcement that he favored renewal was made in the celebrated long-distance telephone speech to the Arkansas Press Assoc iation at Texarkana. Since then, he says, he has been giving the subject a great deal of thought. He has decided to ask three prominent Southern edu- cators, residing outside of Arkansas, to make a survey of the situation, ard submit report as to the feasibility of removal. Their recommendation will be incorporated in the farewell mes sage of Gov. Hays, accompanied by . strong argument in favor of removal. The opponents of removal will be thoroughly organized, and the fight that will ensue will, if per isted in, be one of the bitterest of the Legislative session. -F
