STAMP CHECK BOOKS.
Banks Seek Relief from an Internal
 Revenue Ruling.

Washington. June 2S.-A move ment has been inaugurated by the bankers asking for a reconsideration of recent ruling of the commission CT of internal revenue concerning the destruction of stamp check books. The internal revenue commissioner held that under the law blank checks stamped would only be returned te the extent of two cents OF each check. ln many instances bankers have furnished their patrons with handsomely bound books and these under the law, including the ene..&- ing of the stamp, would he q total loss to bankers. The commissioner in view of the interpretation of the war revenue law, does not see how ne can issue the books and checks for reuse, but it is probable that he VII find solution of the problem hy pre- serving instead of destroying the books and checks and recommending to the next congress that the law hc modified to permit their reuse.

horse. pay tax of three dollars each; while the wagon of contract, or or master mechanic that uses the streets only occasionally and are nec- essarily two-horse, are required to pay tax of ten dollars, thereby be. ing discrimination.
 Second, the tax is unconstitutional for the reason that hls class of prop erty is assessed and tax paid ad va lorem like all other personal prop erty and under the constitution of the state of Arkansas cannot be tax ed twice
 Third, the said tax is unfair for this reason. that you take citizen of our city whe lives so remote from the court house that he is absolutely compelled to have some sort of ye- hiele for himself and family to reach the business parts of the town and usually ownes one of nominal value, he is required to pay the same tax upon that vehicle as the person who ownes one solely for pleasure or show, and usually for the latter.
 Wherefore. the premises consid- cred. your petitioners respectfully pray that the said license be repealed, or that the same be so capitalized as to reach all parties alike

ARKANSAS TEACHERS
ADDRESSED BY PROF. HlNEMON
 AND COL. WHITAKER.
Prof. Hinemon Talked About the I'm. portance of the Teacher and Col
 Whitaker About the Fair.

In an address before the Arkansas State Teachers association in Little Rock Thursday Prof Hinemon, of this city, laid his laurels of praise at the altar of the teacher The teacher is an artist, a sculptor. painter and carving characters that shall live forever. More depends upon the in- fiuence of the school than upon ar. mored navies and trained armies. The ratio of illiteracy to intelligence is worth more to us than the ratio of silver and gold and a free education more valuable than free silver The profession has given 10 literature. science, statesmanship, patriotism and invention some of their brightest and most illustrious geniuses. The speaker alluded in the most grateful terms to the cordial hospitality in- variably extended the teachers and all other guests by the people of Little Rock.
 Col. John J. Whitaker. of this city. one of the Arkansas worlds fair commissioners, was introduced to the Arkansas teachers. who are in sos- sion at Little Rock. Thursday and addressed the association on the sub iect of preparing proper education- al exhibit for the big worlds fair to be held at St. Louis i'll 1903. beside which the Chicago fair will pale into insignificance. The site for the Ar kansas building will be selected next week. He said his plan was to raise $150,000 for the purpose of assisting in the proper representation of the state He suggested that if each Of the coco white teachers in the state should raise $5 from their class and eighborhood, $30 000 of the amount could be raised This can be sent t9 the secretary of state.

MY DAUGHTER I'M
Marion Corners Appears o Advantage
in tho Southern Role

''A1y Daughter-in-Law," a conventional
farce comedy. was PLAYED at the Academy
last night. There is little merit in the
piece. The dialogue is not particularly
brilliant, and there is not enough action
for a farccal play. The cast was capa BILE
and deserved Il better vehicle for their
efforts. The leading role was sllillfully
presented by Marion Convers. She was
gowned in exquisite taste, and was very
graceful and charming daushter-in-Iaw.
1t is interesting to note that her talents
have attracted such attention that there
is strong possibility of her being, en-
gagged by r. L. Giffen as leading woman
for his stock company, She is a southern
girl, and is q daughter of Col. Convers
Jones, of Charlotte. n. c., who was at
one time the Acknowledgement of that
State.
Mrs. Ida Jeffreys was excel
lent as the irascible mother-in-law. Miss
Flora Finch played the small part of a
servant girl with good effect. She is well
known in Richmond having organized a
successful amateur production of mid
