PEN PICTURE OF
 I. H. CARAWAY
WOMAN WRITER IN GOLFERS WEEKLY FINDS ARKANSAS CONGRESSMAN A VERY IN- TERESTINB CHARACTER.

Miss Maud Younger, apparently an ardent and perhaps a militant sui fragist, has been interviewing Unit ed States Senators and Congressmen on the suffrage question and incl dently painting some very interest ing pen pictures of those who have characteristics that make them the fit subjects for humor. Miss Young's article in Golfers of last week, re- lates her conversation with Congress man Caraway of this district, and incidentally the writer gives some of her impressions of the statesman. It follows:
 When is the evening and the morning of the day in Congress?"
 Great light was thrown upon the MT. Caraway of Arkansas. l was on my way one Monday afternoon to consult him about the Judiciary Committee, which would meet in the morning. The elevator stopped on the fifth floor of the House office building, and there he stood, round and beneficent, hated and overcoat- ed, with two constituents. They were waiting for the elevator to go down.
 "When can I see you in the morn- ing?" asked, hastily changing plans.
 Flight o'clock"
 Eight o'clock?" I gasped, think ing of congressman, not of Arkan- sas farmers.
 'I can be there at seven.'
 Eight will do," I hastened to assure him.
 Not to appear as novice in early rising, 1 was on hand at 7:45. Every thing was ashen with dawn. The marble building was grayish white, the elm trees grayish brown, six colored women scrubbing the corri- dors, grayish black.
 Early as it was, footprints on the fresh /scrubbing betrayed the pres ence of congressman. The farming representation had risen with the LArk, and though there were no cows to milk nor stock to feed in Wash ington, it arrived at the accustomed hour to do the chores for the people, The day in Congress does not dawn in the East, but in the West and South, those great agricultural areas where eyes open with the eyes of the sun.
 And so, early as I was, Mir: Cara way was before me- He was sorting mail when I arrived. He is inclined to stoutness. He has not much hair but he makes it go as far as possible. It goes all the way from his left ear across to his right, leaving brown tracks over what otherwise might have been pinkish waste. He has keen insight into men and movements and dry humor. His philosophy is sealed to farming com munities where people have room to turn around. Complex problems of city life, balance between group and group, the influx of women into in- dustry, being remote from Arkansas, were remote from MT. Caraway until he came to Washington. But rising with the lark and reaching his office in early morn, he has time to think things over before clerk or stenog- rapher appears.

Phillips Wins Bout
 From Reese On Foul

J. G. Phillips, local boy, won foul decision over Jack Reese, of San An tonic, Texas, after P minutes of the third round of scheduled three round finish wrestling bout at The Regent Theatre on Tuesday evening.
 Both Reese and Phillips, weighing 158 and 175 respectfully, were in pink of condition and were trained to the minute, and while perhaps, Reese had the better of it in science and speed, this was overcome by Phillins' strength and endurance, and just who would have won had the bout gone to finish, and clean tactics been pursued, remains in doubt.
 The local boy won many friends among the sporting element of Ma rianna by the cleanness of his meth ods and his unwillinness to meet his opponent with questionable tricks.
 Both men were handicapped by the smallness of the mat on which they had to work, rendering them unable to pursue their usual line of attack and defense, and it is to be hoped that if another bout is staged this disadvantage will be done away with.
 The Bout by Rounds.
 Phillips downed his opponent with a hip throw immediately after shak- ing hands, and after fifteen minutes of hard work, during which time neither had the advantage, he final ly secured body lock-with right and shoulder break with left and forced Reese to the mat for the count. Time IS minutes.
 In the second round Phillips again downed his opponent with foot trip, and secured half Nelson hold which was broken after ten minutes by his opponent, who in turn got a half Nelson and body lock combined, which forced Phillips to the mat. Time 16 minutes.
 The last round developed into more or less of a farce in which Reese's main objective scanned to be to stop the match by foul.
 At least twice during the last frame he had his opponent at his mercy, once with a full Nelson and again with scissor hold, but for some reason he failed to take ad- vantage of it, and tried for foul. After repeated warnings by the referee, he continued to foul, so the match was stopped and the de- cision given to the local boy.
 According to the rules of the game all bets, if any were placed, should have been declared off, as the result so far as betting was concerned, was the same as if there had been no de- cision.
