Saved Her Sight
Another Wonder Performed by
Hoods SarsapariIla.

"My little girl Hazel is now four years
old. Two years ago she had the grip. After
recovery her eyes grew infiamed and sup
turated. For over z months she had to
have her eyes bandaged and stay in dark
rUom. The family doctor and an oculist
did everything possible. She did not inn
prove and even grew worse. AT last after
six months he gave us the discouraging
opinion that the cornea Of one eye was de-
stroyed
And Slight Entirely Gone.
That it was doubtful il she would ever be
able to see any with the other, as the sight
was rapidly being destroyed in that also.

We Believe It.

While GRAPHIC man was eating his midnight lunch at the Lodge restaurant last night, he was joined by MT. Hugh Westbrook, the candidate for reelection to the office of City Treasurer.
 Well, MT. Westbrook, " asked the reporter, how is the municipal cleo tion: and who do you think will be elected Police Judge?"
 'Let me tell you, young man, re- piled Mr. Westbrook, "there isn't anyone who can name thenext Police Judge of the city of Pine Bluff.
 And why not?"
 Well, you know that the candi- dates will not vote for themselves, and consequently, each man will vote for the weakest candidate in the field, not knowing that the other candidates will vote for the same man, and there are so many aspir- ants for the office that the man who gets their votes will be elected. You never thought of that, did you?'

A RIGID QUARANTINE.
All Persons Entering Pine Blng Must
 Hold Health Certificates.

Mayor Bel. in accordance with instructions from the Board of Health, is strictly enforcing the quarantine laws. This fact caused several of our citizens and number of strangers considerable annoyance last evening. and in future they will pay more attention to the quaran- tine laws.
 Yesterday afternoon on the train which arrived from Little Rock were a party of gentlemen consist ing of Hons. s. F. Hilzheim, ". E. Sallee, Prof. Junius Jordan, MT. c. T. Gordon, of Camden, Prof. Gate wood, of Fordyce, and several col ored ministers. A number of the gentlemen had neglected to supply themselves with the proper health certificates and they were arrested and marched to the Mayors ofice. Among this number were, Messrs. Hilzheim, Sallee, Gatewood and two of the negro ministers. Mayor Bell was summoned and shortly ap- peared. Mr. A. B. Grace accom- panied the prisoners to the City Hall to intercede with the Mayor to allow them to go about their way, as he knew that they had not been in an infected district. In very pleasant terms he argued with the Mayor that they be discharged, as from the best of testimony, as well as their own statements, it was shown that they had not been in an infected district. After arguing for some time without avail, he stated that he had spent the day in Little Rock and that he had no health cer. tifcate. The Mayor at once ordered him under arrest and told the Chiet of Police to take him in charge. Mr. Grace denied the right of the officer to arrest him and started to leave the building. Mayor Bell again ordered the chief to arrest him and told him that he would hold him per- sonally responsible if his order was not complied with. Mir. Grace, for the sake of kindly feeling for the office, finally consented to be placed under arrest, stating tbat he would test the matter in the courts. The Mayor then left the scene to consult with mem bers of the Board of Health, leaving orders with his subordinates not to allow any of the parties to go about the city. This order was com piled with, and for nearly an hour they were detained at the City Hall. The Mayor, after a consultation with several members of the Board of Health, ordered the prisoners dis charged.
 Mr. Grace is still under arrest. but gave bond for his appearance before the Police Court Monday morning, after which he sought his home.
 The affair created considerable ex- citement, and but for the friendship that existed between the Chief of Police and Mr. Grace serious trouble might have resulted.
 Moral-When you enter Pine Bluff be sure that you have health cer- tificate, and one not signed by Dr. John I. Hancock, of Little Rock.

The London Council Granted the Empire
 ~Theater License.
 London Oct 25.-The chamber of Lon don council was crowded this evening when the council took into consideration the decision of the licensing committee to grant unrestricted licenses to the pal ace and empire music halls. Heated speeches were made by the respective parties of the free license and redistric tive and the council finally by vote of 50 to 1T reversed the decision of the com mittee in regard to the palace and reim- posed that plan of restriction which was formally in force. While the council were discussing the case of the Empire Earl Russell a member of the council and radical condemned such restric- tions as had been placed upon the license of that place of amusement character izng them as irritating to the persons affected by them and productive of no good results. An amendment offered by a progressive member moving that the council refuse to grant license was re- jected by a vote of 62 to 45. The result of the vote was received with loud cheers. The council then formally granted an unrestricted license to the Empire and the cheering was renewed.
