DELIVERS TWO MOST ABLE SERMONS ON CHRIS
 THAN EDUCATION.
VERY LARGE AUDIENCES.
The Elegant Speaker Outlined the
 Grand Plan of the goth Gen. tury Educational Movement

For almost two hours Sunday morning and last night congrega- tions which filled all the available space of the Lakeside and Main street Methodist churches listened with rapt attention to the match less pulpit orator of the Southern Methodist church, Bishop Charles B. Galloway, of Jackson. Miss. At the last session of the General Confer ance of Southern Methodist church. it was decided to raise $1 ,500, ,00O this being the Southern Methodist share of $25,OOO,OO0 decided upon by the Methodists of the world as a 10th century thanks offering to be ex- pended for educational purposes. Bishop Galloway is now visiting the churches of this state for the pur- pose of raising their portion of the $1 ,5O0, ,O00.
 The speaker outlined the grand plan of the 10th century educational movement and showed how the various Methodist denomination of Europe and America had begun it and had pledged themselves to raise for that purpose 1925, ,0O0, ,O00 before the beginning of the 20th century.
 He eloqueEtiy reviewed and con- trasted the progress and history of the Christian DO wers of the day with those nations in which Christian ed- ucatlon among the masses has eith- CT been neglected or denied. He de- clared the decadence and downfall of Spain was due to religif us policy which maintained a closed Bible to masses of the people.
 Bishop Galloway concluded his sermons with an appeal on behalf of Galloway College. He said that in stitution should be rebuilt with more grendeur than before by the MethOdists of Arkansas alone and that should be done this year.
 Bishop Galloway has been heard in this city before. He is @ most ex- cellent and gifted gentleman and he was given a most cordial reception by Pine Bluffians.
 Over $500 was subscribed by the congregation at the Main Street Methodist church last night to the Galloway College fund.

aw an insurance company that is member of any rate-bureau or pool anywhere in Europe, Canada or the United States is prohibited from doing business in Arkansas. The agent of any insurance company, under the new law as construed by the Attorney General, is required to file a sworn affidavit with the Auditor of State that his company is not member of any rool or trust here or elsewhere. Ot cours if the insurance companies have to give up their business either in Ar kansas or all the rest of the States of the Union, Arkansas will be the one to suffer. Therefore a meeting of the Commercial League was held Monday night and committee ap- pointed to circulate petition pray ing the Legislature to so amend the law as to apply only to Arkansas. The insurance men do not object to the bill insofar as it applies only to this State, but they are not wiling to swear that thelr companles are not members of any pool or rate bureau anywhere on earth. The law should be amended.

The Late pr. Pepdleton.

The demise of the late Dr, ?. H. Pendleton was shocking surprise to the community and has spread the mantle of gloom over the entire city. There was no more popular physician or citizen than Dr. Pen dleton. He was highly esteemed in a professional way; and universally liked as a private citizen. This was because of his generosity in the practice of his profession and the nobility of his private character. He lived life for humanity be was al- most utterly without selfishness. In- deed, it has been said of Dr. Pendleton sthat the had more gratuitous than pay patients on his list, and that he has been known to decline to answer the call of pay pa tients in order to relieve the suffer- ing of some poor aud helpless widow and mother. He had the highest ideals of his profession. He regard. ed the practice of medicine as being more for the benefit of humanity than for private profit. In his death the poor of this city, as we'll as the public generally, have lost sincere riend and a valuable citizen.
 Dr. Pendleton was absolutely without fear, This was demonstrated last summer when ne volunteered to go to Warner and investigate sus- pected yellow fever case-a dis tingu.shed service to the commuGity performed without fee or the hope of reward, and at the risk of expos ing himself to the malady and quar- antine from his home and family. Pine Bluff can lily spare so useful a citizen. His place will be sorely missed ln the community. It is therefore that the city is so univers- ally bowed down with grief and that nearly every citizen had flower and tear to drop on the bier of all that was mortal of the late Dr. P. H. Pendleton.

Griggs on Trusts.

According to Attorney General Griggs, the country is h the hands of the trusts and the Federal laws are powerless to afford relief. These cormorauts have their clutches on the peoples throats and the auti- trust law, that bears Mr. Sherman s name, is impotent to make them re- lease the hold.
 These views of Mir. Griggs are set forth in letter which he wrote late ly to an inquiring friend who want ed to know why the Attorney Gen. eral was not invoking the antitrust law to stay the onward march of these unlawful combines before they had completely monopolized every avenue of opportunity and source of production.
 In his reply Mir. Griggs states that the constitutionality of the Sherman law has been decided af- tirmatively more tkan once, but that the act only clothes the Federal courts with jurisdiction over mo- nopoly or trade that comes under the classification of international or interstate commerce. According to his interpretation, trusts which are chartered as corporations under the laws of any one of the States are not subject to the provisions of the an- ti-trust law He cites the decision in the litigation against the Sugar Trust, which was handed down in 1894, Tn support of this view. He does not express an opinion that these combines are controllable, sbut

The popularity of this establishment and the certainty of lyour being able to find there the very latest and most fashionable designs that the most expert milliner's create, attracted a large crowd of ladies at all hours during the day.

Gen. Wheeler's Record.

Throughout the country much indignation has been expressed that man who rendered such disting uished service to his country as Gen Joe Wheeler did during the war with Spain should be forced to de- fend his conduct in the Santiago campaign" very correctly remarks the New Orleans States. "He has, however, felt it was a duty he owed himself and the army to refute the statements of irresponsible liars and put on record in the war depart ment evidence that he did not fight the battle of Las Guasmis in dis obedience of orders, and to prove that the chharge that he wanted to retreat from before San tiago on the night of July 2, was lie made out of the whole cloth and one no doubt inspired by enemies in the war de : partment who are opposed to him receiving a commission as brlgadier general in the regular army. The Baltimore Herald, a conservative Republican newspaper, has this to say ir defense of Ger. Wheeler:
 ," All obserYant readers of official and other reports on the Santiago campaign will recognize the truth of Governor Rooseyelt's remark that Gen Wheeler was the backbone of the campaign. General Shafter's dispatch showing that She contemp- lated defeat on the eye of victory, and escaped disgrace only through the brave persistence of his subor- dinates and the accommodating dis position of Admiral Cervera, has been on record for many months.
 1.-The efforts to make and unmake men without regard to the merits of their services were very conspicu- ous during the brief war with Spain and the army itself seems to have been infected by the favoritism ex- hiblted by the war department. Fortunately for the truth of history these effects have conspicuously failed. Gen. Miles and Gen. Wheel CT have bsen proof against assault and Gea, Shafter came back from Cuba with less reputation tkan he carried thither. although he vas given every opportunity to dlsting ulsh Ehimself. It is time the war department put some authoritative end to the backbitlng and misrepre- oentation tkat have marred the his tory of our brief struggle with Span; but no reform is to be ex- pected as long as Alger re- mains at it's head.

Nuclein Cure for Typhoid Fever
(New Orleans statesl

Philadelphia is, confessedly, the hot.bed of typhoid fever, and this because Of its impure water supply. A few years ago Dr. John Aulde in the pages of the New York Medical Journal expourded new process of treatment of the disease, the virtue of which has been since proven by experiments of surgeons in some of tne army camps. The remedy is a copper arsenite and nuclein solu- tion, in speaking Of which the Rec ord has the following comment that will be understood by the faculty however much She technical terms employed may confuse the layman:
 Before stating the results of these experimental cases alluded to it may be well to recall the central significance of this new remedy. Both typhoid fever and malaria are diseases in which there is an absence of leueoeytosis; that is to say, the polynuclear white blood corpuscles fail to perform their proper function as scaYengers iof the vascular sys- tenn, owing to the lack of nuclein, their proper nutrition. Dr. Aulde's conception has been to introduce an artifcially prepared nuclein, there by revitalizing the exhausted leu cocytes and rendering the human blood system disease-destroYing, as in state of health, As for the rest of this proposed remedy, as he him. self remarks: The physiological basis of medication byl copper ar senite is too we'll known, and the brilliant clinical successes attending its employment too long establish ed, to require further elaboration as factor in the treatment of typhoid fever"
