EVANGELIST M'WILLIAMS
Breaches to Large Congregationsqsanda He Deliver Two Powerful
 Sermons.

The Second Presbyterian Church on East Second avenue, this city, was filled to oyerfiowing Sunday by people who had assembled to hear the celebrated young Evangelist, Rev. Glen McWilliams.
 The subject of the morning dis course by the talented young divine was: Love Your Neighbour" and it proved to be one of the best ef- forts ever made by a minister in Pine Bluff. In the evening Rev. McWilliams chose for the subject of his sermon the theme: Practical Work for God and Humanity. ' This sermon was most telling and forcible one. Rev. McWilliams, is a most pleasing orator, a profound reasoner and has an inimitable manner of impressing gospel truths upon his hearers. He will conduct 8 series of meetings here during the week, and those who hear him can not help but being benefited and pleased. Tonight the subject of his sermon will be "A Fallen Woman"

Illinois State Fair Opened Today.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL, Sept. 23.-The Illinois State fair opens most auspic- iously today, ana the handsome new buildings and spacious grounds were thronged with visitors at an early hour The fair this year is the largest State exposition ever held in Illinois and eclipses in size and cost any similar fair ever held in the country. The new grounds and buildings afford the first perm anent home ever provided for the Illinois State Fair. The Manufac- turers and Liberal Arts building, which was finished last year, is the largest and best appointed structure for the purpose in the United States, with the exception of the Atlanta Exposition buildings. Still more eapacious is the Machinery Hall, 800 feet in lena tn. The Agricultural Building, 233 feet square, is the handsomest building of the three, and is surmountcd by the big dome formerly on the Horticultural Build ing at the Worlds Fair. The value and variety of the exhibits is in keeping with the magnitude of the exposition. The fair will continue one week.

What Bicycling MiIl Do

The Bicycling World publishes the following testimony of a well known physician concerning the much-discussed question of cycling for women:
 "There is nothing like cycling for the thin woman or the stout one either. 1t makes her liver work, food digest and creates fine ap- petite, thus affording the thin woman, who is apt to be lily nour- ished, a new impetus, Frightening he eyes, reckoning her cheeks and doing her over generally. While for the stout woman the exercise hardens and consolidates her. flesh and makes her look simmer, even though she may not change in actual weight. It pulls down the flesh about the hips and gives her a trimmer waist. 1t is is iha-;i har fe. fer th tie 8 woman with tendency toward too much avoirdupois to walk easily, for her feet and ankles are apt to give out In cycling, where the weight is kept entirely off these members, this difficulty is done away with

Entitled to Some Protection.

Owners of bicycles are compelled to pay taxes on their wheels just the same as do owners of horses, wagons and buggies, hence they are entitled to some protection at the hands of the law, and the greatest protection that could be given owners of bicy- cles is to punish parties guilty of throwing glass, old iron, etc., upon the public thoroughfares. Today the pneumatic tire of bicycle was badly cut by some glass that had been thrown on Third avenue, near Main street There is an ordinance making it q punishable offense to place grass upon public thorough fare and the police should see that this ordinance is enforced.

NEW YORK DEMOCRATS.
State Coventlon to be called to Order Tomorrow--A Big Fight Expected Between the Followers of
 Hnl and whitney.

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Sept. 23:-The advance guard of politicians has arrived to attend the Democratic State Convention, which will con- yene in Alhambra Hall tomorrow noon. A harmony conference of party leaders will be held late this afternoon or tomorrow night, ae- eording to when the special trains get in with the Tammanyites.
 Among the. delegates on the ground, the sole topic of. conversa- ton is Harmony, with a big, H. At the committee headquarters, in the hotel lobbies and everywhere that the politicians chance to come together, one may hear vigorous discussion of Harmony plans where by the regular Democrats and the Independents be brought to agree to support the State ticket and the Democratic nominees for Senate and Assembly. However, there is an other matter which is already receiving some attention and interest and which promises to develope to considerable propor- tions' ere noon tomorrow. This is in regard to the two presidential booms that are in evidence, those of Senator David B. Hill and William c. Whitney, and politicians are quietly asking one another whether may it be expected to drop some little word tomorrow that will be- tray the sentiments of Tammany in the matter of presidential fayorites. An open fight between the followers of the two leaders would not be surprising to those best acquainted with the situation. The fight would naturally hinge on the control of New York Sta Fe Dele gation to the next Democratic National Convention. Both men are party leaders of the New York type and they are ambitious to be President, while automatically disclaiming any such desire. There is some difference of opinion as to the strength of the two men, but none as to their intentions.
 Today it seems almost certain that there win be but little if any contest over the adoption of a platform and still less in the matter of selecting 0 ticket. There is any amount of good materialfrom which to choose candidates and from present indications it would seem that each of the men, who are pro- minently mentioned in connection with the various places on the ticket, stands an equal chance of cathing the plum. Unity of action is expected to be the cry on the con- vention floor, and the naming of the strongest ticket possible the only object. But it is difficult to foretell what may turn up during the next twenty-four hours and one can but guess.

WHY the cotton Trade is Going
South.

Almost every day we read an
account Of some New England mil
which has succumbed to the lnevl-
table and is preparing for q move
to green fields and pastures new.
Many reasons can be given why
it will pay to have the mills In the
South. nearer the raw material.
The Southern Trade presents a
few:
1.-The sites andlabor and build
ing material are cheaper.
2-The saving of freight on raw
material and the saving OF broke =
age commission.
3-More favorable climatic con
ditions, longer daylight, milder
winters and ability to run the
whole year.
The desirability Of loose cot
ton over compressed cotton 1ol
manufacturing purposes.
5-The market for the goods
will be nearer, as the center o
population is nearer.

A newspaper published in Pekln
is understood to be the oldest IN
the world 1t dates from q period
200 years prior to the Norman con-
quest of England. Naturally, Its
prolonged existence in an autocrat-
ically governed country like China
has been marked by many vlclssl-
tudes, not the least of which is is
the fact, recently announced IN It's
columns, that during the LOU
wears of its existence 1900 OF It's
editors have been beh'aded, OF
roughly speaking, two per annum.

which IS less than one-fifth of the
S170, 900 which they use IN the
common schools. Therefore we
are to draw the conclusion that
the white counties pay out their
money to educate the black ones.
THE poll tax is only one-fourth
Of the school fund. The other
three-fourths is raised by tax on
property.
"The ten black counties pay on
property 1000, which added
to the poll they pay makes 1924,
| 900 and of this they get $4,000,
leaving in the state treasury Tor
other state purposes S64 900. The
white counties named pay less than
$780, 900 on property for school and
other state purposes, which added
to the $4,000 poll tax they pay
makes, all told on polls and prop
erty eor state purposes $4,000.
These ten white counties sreceive
from the State for their common
schools SS7 900, which is $1,000
more than they pay to the state
tor all purposes on polls and prop
erty. This shows that the ten
black counties you name not only
pay the money used in their com
mon schools. but relieve these
white counties from all other State
taxes, and pay them $1,000 to make
out their school fund; after all this
the ten black have in the State
treasury $4,000 and the white
counties have .lething. These
black counties also pay SAB, 900
on privileges, while the white
counties pay less than $4,000. This
shows that the black counties mer-
toned in the article you publish
