 With healthy body, MT. Arnold has devised means to make himself useful in many ways, and one of the things he brides himself enabled to accomplish through ingenuity, has been to build rack and "buck" on which he saws all the wook consum- ed in his home.
 MT. Arnold has been a member of the school board for twelve years and during eleven years has been secre- tary of the board, performing the various clerical duties of the school district, and checking up and paying out the large sum necessary to car ry on the school work.
 Being a capable bookkeeper, MT. Arnold states that he has already de- yised a way of conveniently handling the books and the business of the treasurer's office, should the people favor him with the office.
 Being lifelong democrat, of course he announces subject to the will of the voters in the party pri- lv1

MURDERER PARDONED
 BY GOVERNOR BROUCH
OLIVER RIDER WHO KILLED LON HATLER AT CORD IS FREE
 MAN AGAIN

Oliver Rider who was convicted in the Independence Circuit Court last spring for killing Lon Halter at Cord, was pardoned by Governor Trough last Friday.
 The crime for which Rider was aonviHeted was one of the foullest murders ever committed in lndepea- deaae county After killing Halter Rider carried the body some distance to the river bank where an old culti- yator wheel was fastened to it and the body thrown in Black river.
 In the trial of the case, Rider did not deny killing Hatley but endeav- ored to show self-defense. but this collapsed when it was shown that Hatler had no gun at the time, but was a peaceable and law-abiding cit izen and never went armed.
 The case was appealed to the su- preme court and the supreme court affirmed the decision of the circuit court.
 Some time after the supreme court decision, Rider took himself to the pen and reported that he was ready to begin his sentence. It is re- ported, however, that Rider was nav- CT confined in the penitentiary a day and that he never even put on stripes.
