The team appears to be in the best of
condition and confident of victory.

they have brought surgeon along with
the team.
The Athletic club boys have been prac-
tcing faithfully for the game and their
team work show, q big improvement
over that of last week. as their game
today will no doubt prove. They also
are confident of defeating the visitors,

Vandalism.

One of our most reputable citizens reports a state of affairs out at the cemetery which is truly deplorable. lie says that yesterday while out at the cemetery he saw several people desecrating the gayes of the honored dead and robbing them of flowers and foliage placed there by loving hands of affection. According to our informant a young maiden, accom- panied by her parents, robbed sev- eral graves ofnowers with the utmost impunity and returned to town with a very large and handsome bouquet, A large calla lilly placed on a grave made but q few days ago was lplueked by this girl under the very eyes of her parents. And this is only one instance of many. People who have not enough respect for the dead to honor the gayes of the departed should be made to do so. The cem- etery officials should at least be on hand on the Sabbath day to prevent such acts of depreciation and ruthless ndalism. The graves of our hon ored dead should be respected and protected.

Pine Blun Telephone Company.

1 We call the attention of our renders
 to inc advertisement of the Pine
 Bluff Telephone Company in this
 issue. This company has not made
 a cut to meet that of the old com
 pany, but the Pine Bluff Telephone
 Company assures our people that
 the rates they have established,
 which are just one-half of what the
 old company has been charging for
 the last six or eight years, will re-
 main stationary and will not be in- creased whether the old company
 remains in business here or not
 The old company-theS Southwestern
 Telephone Company-has made q cut on the new company, putting down the price of phones to $2 per
 month for business houses and Sl for residences. But thepublic can readily see through this reduction. It is done with view of running out" the new company, which no sooner accomplished than the old scale of $5 and $2.50 d month will be restored. 1t is rather strange that if the old company can furnish phones for $2 and $l a month that it has not done so before, and it is at once apparent that if it can furnish phones for $2I and $1 a month now, that it has been extorting money from the peo- vNia .f Inf sessed an absolute monopoly.
 The new company is composed of home people who are entitled to the preference and patronage of the peo- pie of Pine Bluff. The support and maintenance of the new Company is the only guarantee against extor- tionate telephone charges in the future. The present cut of the old monopoly is simply scheme to drive out all competition, and the monopoly's methods are well under stood in this community
 The fact of the business is the new company has the old monopoly in a | corner. The new company already | has nearly 300 subscribers as against less than 200 for the old company, and the list of the new company em- braces nearly all of the subscribers in the old.
 The cut of the old company, there fore, is kind of "death-bed repent ance." The subscribers in the new have entered into contract for phones fft5i. ft55ii. ;s ie:iaaa iises:;iaaa ef three years, and the reduction in phones by the old company will therefore avail it nothing.
 In the meantime let the people stand ny the home company, for it's is the only safeguard in the future against telephone rates as high as tine telephone poles.
