The United States army transport
Wyefield Captain Cartmer arrived in
port Saturday morning, having left "a
coma on May goth, occupying thirteen
days in the trip down. The arrival Of
the Wyefield was not looked for, and
she came as a surprise. She has been
rechartered by the United States Gov
eminent for another trip to the Phil
ippines.
Aboard the transport are 115,272 feet
of lumber for Honolulu. This material
will be used in building scows. Con-
siderable feed was also brought, in
bales of hay. These latter are for Ma
Mia. The vessel stops only to discharge
her cargo of lumber and take on the
necessary coal to the continuance of
her journey.
After the Wyefield left Tacoma she
Immediately began to experience the
toughest weather. She had not been
to sea forty-eight hours before a storm
of tremendous violence was encounter
ed The winds were terrific in their
force, and for several Gays the staunch
boat was in considerable danger. The
last half of her trip down was most
favorable one. The transport is a ia
miliar vessel to water frontiers, having
been here once or twice before, carry
ing live stock through to the Philip
pines. She has no horses or mules
aboard this time, however.
Quartermaster's Agent J. B. Near
thur represents the Quartermaster' S
| Department on the Wyefield. Near
thur halls from Tacoma.
| The Wyefielo having left Tacoma the
same day as the last mail steamer left
San Francisco, brings no later news
| from the Mainland. She is now berth
| ed at the old fishmarket wharf. She
comes here consigned to the Navy De-
partment, and arrived in port at 1910
a. m. on Saturday. Lumber will be dis
charged and coal taken on at the dock
where the Wyefield now lies
The transport is British steamship.

clined to move, and intimated as much
DR.. Wood said he didn't want any Sar
Francisco rats from the Czarina ashore
in Honolulu. He had had all the eX
perience he wanted with rats for a Ions
while to come. The captain declared
that he would stop discharging if he
had to move out six feet Dir. Wdel
said he would have to move anyway
Dr. Garvin was instructed later to &C

Bethel Literary and Historical Asso-
cialien is rounding out the most sue
cessfui and in the truest sense the most
prt ftable season 1t has enjoyed IN it's
nineteen years OF existence. Almost
alone Prof. w. 81. Richards has admin.
istered the Office of President-not that
he has lacked support, encouragement
and sympathy-but because the broad
plan of work laid out was 80 thorough
Iy his, and its proper execution depend
ed so completely upon his sagacity, en-
e-gy and application, that the official
board has been more than content to
indorse his every suggestion and action
and back him up at every turn with the
fine force of their moral and financial
strength. Thus compaetness of or.
ganizstion, intellectual affinity, and a
level headed executive have combined
to assure Bethels premiership among
the Afro. American literary associations
of the country, and largely augment
it's power for good. The attendance has
been excellent, no matter what the at.
traction or the character Of the master,
for the people have come to reserve Tues.
day nights for Bethel running no risk
of missing what they know will be
treat OF the richest variety. As an ed.
ucator on general lines Bethel occupies
place in this community not less high.
ly honored than Howard University
Prof. Richards cannot be too heartily
commended for his signal services dur.
ing the past two years, and all join In
the hope that he will accept a re cleo.
ton to the presidency on the 9Th of
May.
For the remainder Of the season the
following schedule is announced:

 4 DRIVER INJURED
A Fearless Team Runs Away and
 Does Much Damage.

Late Wednesday afternoon a team of horses attached to all emp ty lumber wagon, and which were being driven by a middle aged ne gro man named Judge" Bonner, ran away and did some costly and painful damage to themselves, the wagon and tbe driver.
 One of the horses had been in harness or broken only short while, and when the team reached the corner Of Barraque and Chest nut streets, they took a notion to run, and they carried out their notion. Wildly they dashed down Barraque street with Bonner swing ing to them, using his fall force to check their flight. The board, up- on which Bonner was standing, was jelted down to the tongue and fell to the ground. Thls threw the brave negro on the tongue, but he held to the fast. fleeing animals. At the corner of Barraque and State streets the animals dashed against a brick wall. The tongue of the wagon and the horses dashed against the brick structure at the same instant and the heavy force Of the collision dashed Bonner head first agair st ths same wall. He was carried to a stable nearby and soon regained consciousness. A dangerous looking gasn was cut In his head and the blood flowed freely therefrom. Upon examina- ton several of the bricks were found to be freshly broken and some of Bonner's wool was sticking to tfem.
 The horses were more or less in- jured ard the wagon badly demol- isned. The team and wagon were the property of Ashley & Maupin. One of the horses, it is thought, is now unfit for use. Several physi- clans attended Bonner aud stitched his wounds. He is resting easy under the cireums tances.

TONIGHT OUR CITIZENS WILL MEET AND PROTEST AGAINST POSTOFFlCE LEASE.
OPINIONS OF CITIZENS
The North and South Side Resi- dents Differ---one Says Do
 It, the Other Says Don't

The mass meeting to be held at Knox's hall tonight at s o'clock by indignant citizens, who will protest against the action of the United States Postoffioe Department of Washington, D. C., in recently re- newing the lease on the present Postoffice building, will doubtless be largely attended and the matter en- enthusiastically discussed.
 There seems to be a difference of opinion, taking in the business por- ton and the North side.residents and the residents of the south side of our city, in regard to the location Of the postoffice. Those who live on the north side of Pine Bluff. and the bus mess men especially, are in favor of removing the postoffice north of the railroads. Those residing on the south naturally want the office to remain at tits present location, be- cause it is really more convenient for them ana their families.
 As a result of the above difference. the local postoffice officials will not side either way for lear of making their patrons angry.
 A Graphic reporter interviewed a few people on the subject and the following Is .heir names and opin- ions,
 W. z. Tankersley-It is n known fact that majority of our families live on the south side and 1t Is a much easier matter and with less danger for us to cross the railroad tracks for mail than it is for our wives and children to do. As far as I am concerned however, l do not object to the removal of the office.
 Dr. A. G. Thompson-fh The present location suits me. l am not hard man to please.
 L. .. Knox-It will be much bet- ter for our business portion anf will probably be the cause oi our city securing handsome United States building if the postoffice Is moved north Of fhe tracks

HARD IRON AND HARD LUCK.
Joe Williams Interfsres With Pile
 .of Iron and is Nailed.

Joe Williams is negro, That isn't all. Joe Williams is in hard trouble. and he probably Can tell you hard luck story.
 1t seems from his actions, the police authorities actions and the actions generally of those concerned that Williams prefers living off of other people or their property than earning his own living "by the sweat of his brow.
 He was arrested Wednesday on 8 charge of stealing iron, grand lar- eeny is what the legal fraternity calls it, and arraigned before Judge Vance this morning to answer to the charge. He waived examination and was bound over to await the action of the grand jury.
 It seems that Williams carried away from Williams mill in the suburbs of this city, some iron that was the property of someone else, sold it to the sirop man" and soon found himself in the hands of the law, with the above result

EaA EE|ziaAfter the reading of the last min- and the reports of various , Amittees were received a general ]{Snussion of the work in hand was Hfered into by several speakers. Bdese all agreed that nothing more 'buld be done at present with the nayor's proclamation until he Sttempts to enforce it.
 But the society contends that ghile the adult citizens are thus NE delivered from the attack on heir rights and persons, yet the hildren are unable to defend them, slves against compulsory yaccina- 
 Son through the order of the school Saard.
 NTherefore the following resolu. |Son was unanimously adopted:
 ssIt IS the sense of the Anti-Com- salsory Vaccination Society that

 yes to contest such orders and ISrry a suit through to the supreme ;4nrt if necessary to establish our |nn tention against compulsory vac. anation of any person within the Fate of Arkansas.
 4AThe committee on ways and means 6ln now proceed 10 carry out the xish of the society and ask the CO )beration of all our citizens who en- l0rse the position taken that this auestion may be settled for good.

He said If I was to catch the smallpox I would give it to tie other children, and as I was always running round and rubbing up against all sorts of folks, he was going to stand on his paternal rights and in the name of his institution protect his other children. 1 told him Americans didn't recognize paternal govern ment. He said he was a Dem ocrat hisself, but smallpox was d family affair, in fact it was l regular Nor mon daddy. He said Congressman Roberts had explained the phHoso. phy of it. I came to the end of my row and coaldn t say nothing more.
 But, I heard there was @ eye and ear doctor and a internal vaccina- ton doctor who could help me get away with the governor, so 1 went to see them. One of them said he
 wasn't opposed to vaccination, but did 1t internally, so l would have no sore arm. I asked him if l would have sore innards. He said no. Pap said if it wasn't the real stuff it wouldn't do no good, and If 1t was the real stuff the juices and things in a boys stomach would likely change it into something else before it got tligested. Anyhow, he said he would rather for doctor to put it under his skin, than to put the nasty stuff in his mouth and make him swallow it. The old man also said he had served on the jury and the rule was to give a yer dict according to the ponderance of testimony. He said there was nine teen regular doctors in town and some of them had been to school
 and they all said scarify, if you
 want to vaccinate. He said he had knowed some of them for 6 long time and they was good citizens and he didn't know nothing about these new fellers, at least no reason
 why our folks should boiler "These arc thy gods, 0 Israelr' If these two little self-appointed gods were allowed to dethrone the board of health it wouldn't be long before the twin devils, Anarchy and Pesti- lence, would reign in their stead.
