''The House That Jack Built"

Miss Brandow Douglas, who was last seen in
Scranton as Mrs. Smith in that other Broadhurst
farce, "Why Smith Left llomc,' is aside from
heing very handsome woman one OF the best
dresSels on the stage today. As Jacks daughter
Hester in Broadhurst's newest laugh provokcr,
''lhc House That Jack Built" she has a role
to which she is particularly adapted, that oi
young society woman with sociaistic tendencies,
who believes in the down trodden worknsnan
and despises the alistocracy. The gowns that
Miss Douglas will wear in this production are,
q, the ladies would term il, Dreams" of the

Alfred Kline, that diminuliye comedian, who
WAS associated so long with DeWolf Hopper, is
entrusted with another important comedy role
aud pe,hap, one OF the best in which he has
been seen. Miss Anita Bridger is remembered
for her viyaeious impersonation oi ''Crissy" in
What Happened TO Jones' which had been
seen and much enjoyed here.
Miss Grace Dudley and Jennie Ycamans both
have important roles in which they ale con-
genially adapted. All in all the cast, which ap-

After May l we will have on sale Coupon Ice Books-500 and 1000 pounds -and we wish to state to all of our patrons that if they will buy and use the Ice books much tune and trouble will be saved, as we will charge no ice af- ter that date, and as it is not always con- yenient to have the change around the house, customers will find the ice books less trouble to themselves and their use will be appreciated by us, as it will enable us to devote more of our time to looking after the wagon and the de- livery, and by so doing give better ser vice.
 We also wish to state that we wlll deliver ice only once each day, except to the stores and business portion of the city, and all persons who do not procure their ice from the wagon in the mornings, will have to send to the factory for same.

The Revival.

The protracted meetings now in progress at the Baptist church are growing, and much interest is being manifested by our citizens. Precious souls are being brought penitent to the feet of the Savior. But christians are not satisfied and are redoubling their efforts to bring about a glorious spiritual upheaval in this community May God grant their supplications and petitions for grace and mercy. All desire to promote the best and most potent interests for the moral and spiritual welfare of our city, and the surest way tD secure healthy conditions in this line is to embrace the first op. portunity to make peace with God and man. Eld J. N. Couch, of Fulton, Ky, father of the resident minister. is in charge and is the moving spirit of the meeting. He is being ably and yaliantly assisted by Rev. Davidson and Eds. Paslay and A. N. Couch, all of whom are working zealously and earnestly. The sermons being pre- sented morning and evening of each day by the venerable minister from Kentucky, are spiritual benedictions, and he defines the plan and way of salvation so clearly and simply that d child may easily understand. He needs no words of feeble praise or commen- dation from us to those who have lis- tened to him, but we would be glad to bring others under the influence of his ministry. Accept an invitation from us to attend church. Throw aside the cares and responsibilities of business for at least one hour i'll each day and give some thought to the salvation of your soul. Profound and logical ser mons are being offered and they come with such earnest siL LceritY, from d soul set on fire by the grace and power of the Holy Spirit. as to convict the ungodly and worldly-minded and bring them to consideration of their lives in the sight of God. We exhort you to attend these meetings, feeling that you will be a better man or woman for having done so.

plenty. Think of the numerous topics of discussion which they suggest the important public measures with which the children thus early become ac- quainted the great pbilanthropic ques- tlons to which their attention is called :; and the general spirit of intelligence which is produced by these quiet visit ors.
 "The world is moving along lines of thought, fostering principles and sen timents undreamed of in it's earlier history, and it is beyond question the press that is most instrumental in giv- ing these, wings to fly and tongues to speak.
 Now, while we cannot too highly appreciate the educational value and magic power of the press, We cannot too greatly deprecate it's abuse of the same. Hence. as we should always seek the companionship of the best class of people. so we should always seek the companionship of the best lit erature. We should choose our books and papers as we do our friends. for their sterling and intrinsic worth. not for any accidental circumstance Tn their favor.
 !" In fact it is said that we may be judged more truly by the books and papers that we read, than by tue com pany we keep, for our associates are in d measure imposed upon us. but our reading is of our own choosing. '' It is deplorable fact that there is a present day tendency to scatter broadcast pen pictures that are coarse, vile and repalsiye. that portray not only the unpleasant, but the really de prayed side of human life. And these artists demand that we read their works, their plea being that they are natural and realistic. Perhaps they are. A viper is as natural as a Nal tese kitten, yet not one of us would care to make it lireside companion a garbage barrel is as realistic as d bnbbling spring, yet who would care to finger by its side, or drink Of it's fonl contents.
 Now, while the spreading of ugli. ness under the names of Daturalism and realism is being so persstently urged, Club Women of Arkansas, let us turn our backs upon 1t, and permit to come into our homes only those pa pers, periodicals and books that are ennobling in their influence.
 When the time comes that the reading world will refuse to be satis l fled with other than perfect thoughts linked unto noble words, then, anC then only, will the educational value Of newspapers and periodicals be at its l flood

Death of Willie Lee Parham.

Again we have 10 perform the sad duty of recording the death of a beloved citizen.
 At - o'clock on the afternoon of April g. 1900, the spirit of Willie Lee Parham winged it's hieht beaysnward to It's Maker. His illness and death bed were such an one as is rarely wit messed. Nearly two years ago be was stricken with that dread disease, con sumption, and went to Texas in the hopes of restoring his health, but grad ualiy grew worse and was obliged to return, and was confined to bis bed for nearly year before his demise. All that love and medical attention could do was done. Kind friends visited him daily, and the devotion of his wife has no parallel-she was never tiring in her attention and love for her life compan- ion. It was of no avail except to com fort, and the end came at last as a sweet relief to his suffer;ngs. Being consistent member of the Methodist church Mir. Parham learned early in life how to live, consequently he had no fear to meet grim death. and passed away without struggle. The funeral services were held at the Methodist church Tuesday at o'clock, Rev. w. c. Davidson officiating. The edifice was filled with bereaved rela- tives and sorrowing friends. After the services the Woodmen of the World took charge of the remains and escorted them to the Forrest City cemetery, where they were inferred under the beautiful ceremony of the order. The choir of the church sang that beautiful hymn, Happy Land !" the benediction was uttered, and all that was mortal of Willie Lee rested under a bed of floral offerings froU 1 friends.
 Willie Lee Parham was born in St. Francis county, Ark, 1872. and was barely twenty eight years of age at his death. He was the youngest son of the late Capt. John Parham. He was Il young man of sterling qualities, q true friend, and generous to fault lie was assistant postmaster under the late R. T. Scott and under present Postmaster John c. Bell.
 He was married to Miss Lula Mason, daughter of Rev. and Mrs. J, A. Mason, of this city, January Is, 1896. He was a member in good standing of the Woodmen of the world and the Wood men Circle.
 To the devoted wife and bereaved relatives TIE TIMES offers sympathy
 May the Great Healer of all sorrows so alleviate their grief that they may recognize the wisdom of Him who doeth all things for the best.

In Honor of Hrs. Norton.

A highly enjoyable occasion of euphony and harmony was the en- tertainment oi the Crescendo Club and a few musical friends last evening Tn the lovely home of Mir. and Mrs. Walter German, in honor Of Mrs. N. W. Norton, who ex- poets to leave in few days for 2 months visit with her mother at Brownell, Kan. Delightful fca- lures of the evening were several musical productions by Mrs Barnes of St. Louis, Mrs. Turley, Mrs. B. D. Hatcher, Mrs. D. c. Webb and Miss Mamye P'Poole. Mrs. Barnes sang rich soprano solos. Her voice is full, clear and we'll train ed. Besides music the guests were entertained by the game "Russian Gossip" which was most interest ing and proved how gossip repeat ed can be, and often is, completely changed. Bon bons were served. The sweet grace and gallantry of tho host and hostess respectively. was the theme of pleasant con- ment among the departing guests at seasonable hour.
