EFFECT OF GOOD ADVERTISING
Christian Church Convention Commit
tee IL ReapinE Good Results
from It's Work.

The effect Of the advertising done by
the general committee of the Christian
church convention is being felt In all parts
Of the country. The national secretaries
OF the different boards who visited the city
after the Minneapolis convention and
learned that the auditorium would not be
completed in time for the convention were
then only half satisfied with the local
situation, but since then they have changed
their minds. f. M. Rains, national sec
rotary of the Foreign Christian Mission
society, writes: THE foreign society de-
sires that a space 16x20 feet be reserved
in the convention hall for its display. 1t
will have an exhibit of foreign curios and
maps larger than has ever been made at
any convention"
The committee is now preparing to in
crease its working capital by a plan adopted
in other cities for the same purpose. A
certificate setting forth the fact that the
holder has paid 81 to the convention ex-
penses has been prepared and will be issued
upon the receipt Of that amount Of money.
The certificate has as a background the
convention design The Gate City"
The official badges have been approved by
the executive committee. Each member OF
the committee will wear a white linen cap
with patent leather visor and black rim.
around which in red lettering will appear
the words Christian Church Convention. g
Each delegate and committeeman will be
given an official button bearing the con-
vention design, THE Gate CITY," while
hanging from the button will be a ribbon
properly designating the wearer.

THIS MAN 10 FROM CHICAGO.
Hes Going to Introduss Monkeys ~
Farm Hands In the South.

Hes Going TO Introduee monkeys ~
Farm Hands In the South.
Paul Kuntz, q Chicago man. who has
extensive interests in the south, Il
now In Arkansas with a party o.
northern capitalists, has a plan for the
solution of the labor problem in the
south. The remedy, says Mr.. Kuntz
lies In the substitution Of monkeys
for the negro. ,
Thus far Mr.. Kuntz's plans only looh
to the replacing Of the negro by Q
monkey in the cotton-picking season
He says he knows monkeys and their
capacities, and Is confident that they
can be 30 trained as to make the
most efficient kind of cotton-pickers.
They can not only pick as well as the
negro, but they can pick twice as much
in given time. There are other ad-
vantages attendant upon their en-
ployment. One is that they will not
demand wages, and this item will be
an immense advantage to the planter.
Neither will they form labor unions,
and the union principle that Is gaining
foothold among the negroes is not
encouraged on the big plantations.
Mr.. Kuntz derives his knowledge OF
monkeys from observation Of them In
Africa, Of which country he Is a ma
tive. He Is 90 well satisfied that they
can be trained to do the work In the
cotton fields that he now has a large
consignment Of them on the way from
that country. which he proposes to
employ on a cotton plantation which
he owns. He says that his experience
has demonstrated to his satisfaction
that the monkey can be trained tc
perform any kind Of manual labor re-
curing skill and application. The
work must not be too laborious, as the
monkey has not the strength requisite
for heavy labor.

NEW CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT


Alexandria. They are baking Of Q
new congressional district these days.
All of the politicians in the south
western end Of the state figuring on
what the legislature is going to do
for them, ard not few Of them are
more than casually interested for the
reason that if the throw is made to
suit them they will have their names
before tho convention. At Lake
Charles the district, which, they say,
will suit them best, will be composed
of the parishes Of Acadia, Calcasieu,
Vernon, Avoyeiles, Rapides, st. Lam
dry and Cameron. At Alexandria
they say the district that will suit
them best will be composed of GAL
oasieu, st. Landry, Avoyelles. YER
non, Rapides and Grant. Either of
the groups named would have the ne.
cessary amount Of population. and
either of them would form very
compact and homogeneous district.
1t is mere matter of arrangement to
suit the desires and this is something
which happens wherever the question
of redistricting is taken up.
