TRAIN KILLS TWO Al ROAD CROSSING JUDE MADDEN AND WIFE Meet Death When Passenger Train Strikes Buggy In Which They
 Were Riding.

I.qde Madden, aged 70, and his wife, Mckie Madden, aged 65, ne- groes, were struck by Iron Mountain passenger train No. 103 at 6:05 o'clock yesterday afternoon at the Kuykendall crossing, one mile north west of the local station, sustaining injuries from which they died. The wife was killed instantly, while her husband survived until o'clock this morning.
 The aged negro couple were en- route to church from their home, about four miles west of Conway, when the accident occurred. They were riding in an open top buggy. The train bore down upon them at a speed estimated by an eyewitness at between 40 and 50 miles an hour There being long "cut" about 35 yards west of the crossing, Madden and his wife were unable to see the train approaching, it is said. The engineer failed to sound the whistle at the whistle post about 100 yards liOiil tilC tiooSiilS, eiNSOiui u tHS WitneSs.
 The couple were in the middle of the tracks when the train hit the buggy and horse, and were thrown about 40 feet. The horse was killed. Madden was injured internally, while his wife sustained injuries about the head and her left ankle was broken.
 The engineer apparently did not see the victims until it was too late to stop his train. When within a few feet of the crossing, a witness told reporter today, he sounded the whistle The train was not stopped until it ran several hundred yards from the crossing.
 The train was in charge of Conduc- tor w. B. Mann.
 The Maddens were among the most highly respected negroes in Faulkner county. They had lived here more than 30 years. They leave large family of children and grand chil dren.

to a special committee to consist of the senators and representatives from the counties which are touched by the proposed highway, Sebastian, Crawford, Franklin, John sol, Pope, Conway, Faulkner Pulas- Ri, Lonoke, Prairie, Monroe, St. Fran cis, Woodruff, Cross and Crittenden.
 Representative Gentry raised an objection to the resolution, asserting that other counties are interested and contending that it would take funds from the general road fund created under the federal aid act The resolution failed of adoption and the bill was referred to the commit tee on roads and highways
 The house this morning passed the Whitaker bill for millage basis of taxes for the maintenance of the state educational institutions, as fol- lows: University of Arkansas, four ninths mill; State Normal School at Conway, one-ninth mill; each of the four agricultural schools, ninth mill; Branch Normal and Arkansas University medical school one-ninth mill; total, one and one ninth mills. This tax is to be deducted from the general revenue tax.

case IS carried higher.
 It now appears as though there Will be no contest, but should there
 be, and the supreme court rules agalnst the bill, it can destroy only one section-the appropriation. The legality of the portion of the bill pro- Vldlng for the convention cannot be questioned. The convention can then assemble, and Governor Brough can declare an emergency appropriation to defray the expenses, depending upon the legislature of 1919 to Care for the deficiency.
 There has already been a bill in- troduced in the house to govern the contest for seats in the convention. This bill will prevent any one spend ing money on a candidate, or any in- terest eXerting influence for cand- dates.
 Questions which will be considered by the convention are now being free ly discussed. It is admitted that some steps will be taken to give re- lief now possible only at the hands of the general assembly, by increas- ing the authority of the quorum courts, or in other manner, and thus saving the time the assembly now de- votes to the consideration of local bills. Another thing is the length of terms of office. The delegates are expected to provide four year terms, with provision that no officer, or one connected with an office, shall be a candidate while holding office. A ses-

CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION SURE LEGALITY. UNQUtS7I0NEO Fund Appropriated for Expenses is Only Point Subject to Attack
 in the Courts.

Little Rock, Feb 19.-No matter what legal steps are taken, there will be constitutional convention in Little Rock, to open November 19. That much is assured, notwithstand
 ing the point of order raised on the passage of the bill in the house by Representative Johnson of Sebastian county. He maintained that the bill, which carries an appropriation of $25, ,000 for the expenses of the con- vention, required 67 votes, or two thirds of all elected to the house, to be legally carried The bill was de- cared passed by Speaker Cazort on vote of 54 to 40, he holding that a majority only was necessary, it being considered by him a necessary ex- pense of the government.
 Gov. Brough and many legal au- thorities sustain the ruling of Speak CT Cazort, and all expect the supreme court to sustain the ruling if test case is carried to the supreme court. These authorities do not class the ap- propriation for the Panama-Pacific exposition building as the same, hence the supreme court ruling in that case is not germane to the ques- tion. The state capitol case of State vs. Sloan. is directly in line, and the decision will probably govern If the

OR. REYNOLDS WILL CONSENT 10 SERVE AS FAULKNER DELEGATE Hendrix President Accepts Call to Become Candidate for COnstitu-
 tiOnal Convention.

The call extended to him through the Log Cabin Democrat and by a large number of his fellow-citizens that he become a candidate for dele gate from Faulkner county to the constitutional convention was accept ed today by Dr. John H. Reynolds president of Hendrix College.
 If the people desire me to serve them as delegate, shall be glad to do SO, he said to the Log Cabin Dem ocrat today. Dr. Reynolds said, of course, that before making a formal announcement he would secure the assent of the Hendrix College board of trustees. He is now consulting some of the members of the baord and does not anticipate any objection upon the part of the board to his candidacy.
 The suggestion that Dr. Reynolds be called upon to represent Faulkner county in the great constitutional convention which will assemble next November, which was offered in the Log Cabin Democrat last week, has met with a most hearty response Upon all sides it is conceded that Dr. Reynolds is admirably fitted for the position and that Faulkner county would be peculiarly fortunate in hay ing man of such high attainments to sit in the convention. Scores of the most prominent men in the coun- ty have expressed sentiments to this effect since the name of Dr. Reynolds was proposed, and it seems that his support will be almost unanimous In fact, the impression is general that Dr. Reynolds acceptance will practically eliminate any opposition.
 All over the state the tendency for the counties to call out their biggest and best men for service in the con- vention is apparent. On last Satur- day petition signed by more than 300 was drafted at Little Rock asking that three of the brainiest lawyers in the state and the leading newspaper man of Arkansas become candidates. Greene county is prepar- ing to send former Acting Governor J. M. Futrell; in Phillips county John Ike Moore is being urged to be a can didate; Sebastian county is calling upon Judge Joseph M. Hill, and nu- merous other instances could be giv- en to show that public sentiment is demanding that the convention be made up of the states best talent.
 In such convention Dr. Reynolds would be big man among big men. He would quickly and naturally be- come one of the leaders. The an- nouncement that he has consented to serve if elected will be received with qualification by thousands of people of this his native county, who recog- nize his unusual qualifications for the position of delegate from Faulk- ner.

 A buffet luncheon will be served at the club rooms during the evening.

NORMAL BUILDING
 CUT 10 S60,O0O

Although the bill has not yet been officially reported to the legislature, unofficial news from Little Rock is to the effect that the budget com mittee has agreed to cut the appro- priation for a main building for the Arkansas State Normal School from $160,000 to $60,000. It is recognized here that the latter amount would be entirely insufficient to construct such building as is imperatively needed to meet the growth of the Normal, and it is probable that if the appro- priation is cut by the committee as deeply as reported, strong fight will be made on the floor of the house to restore the item to it's original amount.
