The ONLY Remedy.

The only remedy / can find for TINS is
TO induce the plain people to use sculpture
in ali its forms in simple and cheap way
BY degrees ii will become fad. and
finally will like the bicycle, grow from a
fad of the poor 10 the fashion of the rich.
When the time comes when our million
aire will feel that in order TO be in the
smart set and be in fashion he must have
his statutes in his gardens as we'll as his
horses in his stables. then we will be able
to brag about our culture.
This viii depend lalge.y on our women.
Let our women insist tEat at least a plas-
ter cast or terra Gotta copy OF some mas
teTpiece of sculpture, however small, is in
1ispensable on the exterior ana interior of
the house and in the gardens II they are
TOO poor 10 buy these masterpieces IN mar
bic and bronze. Let our women make it
their business TO engraft upon our culture
this high element.
Instead Of worrying the men with great
colleges let them worry them little more
10 build real gardens, to make even or
most humble surroundings include piece
Of sculpture in some form. and thus b. de-
gTees force us TO establish the fashion.
Then the custom. and finally the habit, Of
using sculpture may be established. When
thai time comes We shall have the golden
age of American sculpture-then real
American school OF sculpture viii be ush-
cred in.
The speaker contended that even among
the wealthy inhabitants or this country
the use OF sculpture was not general
enough. and that the popular reason for
its limited use was its cost. That is a
poor excuse he said, but a more
weighty one is the severity OF our climate.
But, had the desire to possess statues IN
their gardens been sufficiently strong N
the minds OF the rich. they would soon
have solved the problem OF how to pre-
serve them

THE Use of Sculpture III the Home and

discussion at the last meeting of the Ma
tional Sculpture Society in New York.
The arguments and suggestions which were
advanced by f. w. Ruckstuhl, Charles r.
Lamb, and Russell StUsgis were listened
TO with close attention by a large number
OF people, to whom the addresses we're
made doubiy interesting by a number of
fine lantern slides.

no champions with psople VINO have eX-
pensive homes and who are willing 10
spend large sums of money for works of
art. 1t was not the object OF the men
VINO addressed the meeting To bring the
matter to the attention Of that class Of
the community SO much as to show that
men CT moderate means may indulge in
the -elevajing luxury of statuary in the
home. and to urge upon householders to
introduce decorations in their dwellings
which would serve the double purpose of
making the places beautifui and educating
the children TO better appreciation Of
works Of art which are considered by many
people as not within the reach OF the
middle class.
In the course of his remarks Mr.. Ruck-

TO SAVE BELLS NECK.
Attorney \. 0. Pindall Goes to Little
 Rock for That Purpose.

Attorney X. 0. Pindall, of Ark ansas City, passed through Pine Bluff Tuesday afternoon on the lorth-bound Iron Mountain passen- ger en route 10 Little Rock in the interest of bis client Jordan Bell Jr., the negro who is now confined in a cell in the Jefferson county jail here, and who has beeu sentenc- ed to hang at Dumas October 26, for the murder of his wife.
 Mr, Pindall in conversation with a Graphic reporter, said an appeal had been granted by the Desha Circuit Court. He said in his opin ion there is no aestion but what the Supreme Court will reverse the case and new trial will result. Mir. Pindal will use every effort to save Bells neck. Bell in a recent talk says he believes Kr. Pindall will be successful in his work, but added that he was not afraid to die as he has always said his prayers.

AS IF BY MAGIC
The Slot Machines Disappeared in

"Where are the slot machines?' asks the Hot rprings News.
 "They have vanished like magic with the convening of circuit court.
 "Wtesher they 'smelt mice" in connection with this term of court or not is matter of conjecture. It may be that the recent bonfire of slot machines on the streets of Pine Bluff by the sheriff, ,:on au order from Circuit Judge Grace, led the owners here to take precautions against a similar event. At all events no machines are to be found today in aey saloon or public place in the city, and MT. Lasser. manager of them, left this morning for saca- tion abroad. Whether the intention is to permanently suspend the busi. ness or merely wait until court adjourns, is matter about which people may draw their owa con. clusions, but in iha event that the grand jury should act upon Judge Duties suggestion and alay for 5hem'' without final sjournment. the situation would then De interestirg Z

ROBERT M. MAXWELL, OF MAGNOLIA, SUES AN
 INSURANCE co.
HE LOST ONE OF HIS EYES
Company Refuses to Pay Policy on Account of Tech
 nicality.

Robt. M. Maxwell today (Wednes- day) brought suit in the Jefferson circuit court against the Fidelity and Casualty Company, Of New York, the American Bonding and Trust Company, Of Baltimore City, and J. s. and s. W. Whiting for $15.00o. The plaintiff prays iudg- ment against the defendant in the sum Of $10. 900, $500 and other prop. CT relief.
 MT. Maxwell will be remembered as the man who lost an eye while riding on a train near Little Book, a rock having been thrown through a window. The accident happened some four months ago. Maxwell lives at Magnolia but is we'll known here.
 He held an accident policy in the Fidelity < Casualty Go. for $15, 900. The policy provided that in tho event of the loss of one eye he would receive $3 600 under same aud in addition $75 per week for the time that he was unable to perform duties pertaining to his occupation for period not exceeding 100 weeks. As Maxwell is permanently disabled the indemnity for the 100 weeks at $75 per week is also claimed.
 The company refuses to pay the policy on account of iechnicality. Tue other defendants are bondsmen for the insurance company,

miles southeast of the city, he met two lumber wagons, each i'll charge of young negro man When he met the first teamster he made him get of his wagon and by making further threats, ran him into the woods. Perry acted as if he was drunk and it is believed he was. He said he wanted the road, to pass, and ran Ben May, the second teamster off his wagon and into the woods. May seou returned to the road however, and told Perry to "leave us alone, we is got to go to Pine Bluff with our load, :" When May spoke, Perry grabbed az axe from bis wagon and made for May, who ran to his wagon and secured a scan ting. When Perry ran up with the axe in hand, May dealt him a heavy blow on the head, and then ran to the woods.
 The local officers were notified Of the affair and went to the scene. When May saw the officers he came from his hiding place and surrend cred. He was brought to this city and jailed, but soon made bond.
 The officers says Perry was intox- ieated and was doubtless to blame. He is i1oi ng we'll today ard may recover.
