EMPEROR WILLIAMS SANITY
May Bring About Crisis and Cause His
DethrOnGmcnt.

DethrOncmcnt.
LONDON, March "a writer in the
Daily Mail says that Emperor William,
if not specifically insane. is subject to
fits of alteration which. while they
last, are indistinguishablc from mad
ness. His local arrangement behind
the ear, and almost in contact with
the brain, has hitherto, it is added,
been kept in safe limits by treat
mcnt which provokcs Il constant dis
charge. While the discharge lasts the
pain is not very great, and the in
fialnmation and swelling Of the affected
parts being relieved, there is nothing
either intolerablc or alarming. But,
it appears. it has lately become in
crcasingly difficult to maintain the
process. No Hohcnzollcrn is allowed
to ascend the throne, or keep it, who
is afflicted with an incurablc disease,
and it is obvious no madness can be
tolerated in the emperor. 1t is said
that should things get but little
worse, Prince Henry of Prussia, the
cmperor's brother, will be procla lined
regent.

to go out and get real news. A wig orous imagination and bottle of ink are the only qualifications re- quired for sensational journalism. But the time for that is past. There are always plenty of things in pro gress in a rapidly developing coun- try to interest the public, and it is information about these things that the reading public wants. Murders, suicides, scandals-this is very tire some stuff. Local industrial devel- opments, new enterprises. new methods and new facts generally af- ford matter enough, and they give a better and more useful idea to the inquiring outsider as to local social conditions.

ANENT the recent sensational re- ports sent out from Arkansas about negro lynchings and race-riots, the Mobile Register makes the following very. timely and appropriate re marks:
 ''The Baltimore Sm reads the Southern editors lesson that should be accepted, coming as it does from a friendly critic. It re. lates to the efforts at sensationalism made by some of our writers, and is as follows It is undoubtedly bad policy for the Southern press to give large attention and excessive space to local incidents of the kind the Northern press likes to get hold of for purposes of exaggeration and misrepresen tation. 1t is the desire of many Northern and Western in- terests to prevent immigration southward. They are quick TO seize upon instances of alleged violence, insecurity of life and property, etc, to parade as proof that the South is a bad region to emigrate to. A careful Southern press can do the South good by refusing to exagger- ate local disorders and by attaching importance to really important things-the industrial events of the county and State. 1t is easier, of course, fer the country editor to sit in his sanctum and scribble blood curdling descriptions of murders, possible lynchiDgs and the like than

LABOR DAY.

Labor Day is National holiday. The labor people are doing every thing within their power to make the day a grand success in Pine Bluff this year. Every labor organ ization in the city will participate in the demonstration. Therefore, every citizen of Pine Bluff should join in and do what he can to assist in the Labor Day celebration to oc- cur in this city on Monday, Septem- Der 6. The labor people are the life of Pine Bluff, They work hard dur ing the year and spend their money with Pine Bluff business men. The employees of the Cotton Belt shops are especially interested in the oc- casion, and the Cotton Belt shops are one of the leading sources of revenue to the city. Therefore, on their account, as well as on behalf of the other laoor organizations, the GRAPHIC hopes to see the occasion made a grand success.
 For the sake of outside visitors we desire to state that everything will be free on that day. The parade will be public, and the speaking and base ball games and bicycle races at the park will be free.
 Mayor Bell will act as chief mar shal, Col. s. M. Taylor will deliver the welcome address, and prominent labor leaders will be present to ad- dress the assemblage.
 Reduced rates will be given on all railroads, and the occasion will nc doubt bring one of the largest audi ences ever witnessed in Pine Bluff. The Iron Noun tain shops at Little Rock will be closed down on that day and at least 1000 people are ex- pected to attend from the City oi Roses alone.
 Therefore, let Pine Bluff and all Pine Bluffians do themselves prouo on that occasion.

The cotton buyers of Little Rock have permitted the merchants of several small towns to exeell them in the matter of encouraging early cotton picking. The price paid in some of the inland towns of the State for the first bale was 10 cents, while the Little Rock buyers declin- ed to go beyond current prices. We regret to observe such indifference upon the part of men who ought to know better and act with more liberality Arkansas Democrat.
 The first bale of the season was brougt to Pine Bluff, where it sold for III cents per pound, cent more than any other new bale bought anywhere in the South. This goes to show that Pine Bluff pays the highest prices and is the best cotton market in the South.

cago alone, who took his life to es- cape the intolerable heat; yet there is not a case on record where one has taken his own life to escape the cold. To discover the psychological effect of the weather one has but to observe the differences in disposi- tion of those who inhabit hot and cold climates. Those who inhabit hot climates are almost without ex- ception quick tempered, irascible and excitable, while those who in habit cold climates are even.tem- pered, slow to act and methodical. These conditions are not so much inherent as they are the result of exasperating torridity, or the calm ing influence of a cold atmosphere. It is 8 very easy thing for man to find trouble or get himself killed when the mercury is sporting about the 100 degree mark, while it re- quires more proyocation or excita- tien te action when the mercury is lowering about zero. Man is mercu- rial, and his feelings are tempered in a large degree by the thermome- ter. It would be well, therefore, for psychologists to take the wealth CT into account when searching for the influences that move and actuate men. Mr. Moore's future obserya= tions as to the connection between the weather and crime will be watched with interest.

TIE GRApHIo's news columns to- day show that Pine Bluff is not lag ging in the procession of progress. Real estate is active and new build- ings are going up in every part of the city. Pine Bluff has kept mod erately quiet for the past three years, but at the first wave of re- turning prosperity the city rushes to the front in progressive enter prise.

THE PSYCHOLOGY
 OF WEATHER.

Willis l.. Moore, chief of weather bureau at Washingtoa City, is gath ering statistics, which, in his opin- ion, show that hot weather is condu- cive to crime. According to the statistics gathered thus far during the months of January, February and March of last year, there were 1,200 suicides reported in the United States, while in the hot weather months of July, August and Septem- Der in the same year, there were 1, 1,600. For the same period, accord ing to Mr. Moore's observations, there were l, TOO murders in the cold term as compared with 2,500 in the hot term. Pursuing his investiga- tions further, MT. Moore reports 90 persons hanged or lynched during the three cold months as against 113 hanged or lynched in the three hot months. In the face of these statistics, it is evident that the weather must be given, in the future. psychological meaning. There can be no doubt but that heat and cold affect the mind. It is well established fact in psychology
 that the mind is greatly influenced by it's environment. Therefore, if the mind is influenced by it's envi- ronment, it is evident that it must be influenced by the weather, since the weather is part of the environ
 ment. It requires no astute ob- server to tell the effect of the wealth CT upon the mind. Man cores ponds, in a large measure, to his environment Therefore, if the day be bright and clear, nearly every
 one yoa meet will be bright and cheery; or if the weather be dark and gloomy, the chances are that you will find most of those you meet in a condition of mind correspond ing to the weather outside. During the late severe hot spell in the month of July number of suicides were reported, and there was more than one person in the city of Chi
