PROSPECTS ARE BRIGHT.

q a roseate glow overspreads the hori-
zon of the season just opening for, the
Philharmonic club and the Minneapolis
orchestra. After the period of indeci-
sion at the close Of last season, the
friends of music in Minneapolis and the
business men interested in the progress
of the city rallied to the cause and a

:. A good story is going the rounds
about Frank Daniels, who will appear
at the Metropolitan tonight in "Ser-
geant Brue - This farce ran all sum
mer in New York and at times the
weather was pretty warm. Daniels Went
,pcrspiringly and uneomplainingly about
his work until one afternoon, ON his
way to the matinee, he noticed blll
of the gutter-snipe' variety announ.
cling the last week of the engagement

orchestra, and that her business men
were going to stand behind the enter
prise. The work of Conductor Ober-
hotter in forwarding the musical inter-
ests of the city was substantially rec
ognized, and list Of guarantors and
patron subscribers was made up that
was a gratifying surprise. Altho this
the canvass is over the list will be
found to contain the names Of many
persons prominent in the city's civic
and social life. -
It is part of the general plan to
take the orchestra on a short two or
three weeks trip during the season,
an enterprise which will add materially
to the musical standing Minneapolis
has assumed among the cities. There
is not another city Of the size of Min
neapolis in the United States which
can boast Of such an organization.
Mr.. Oberhoffer has but recently re-
turned from New York, where he, has
been in close touch with musicians, and
has secured number of fine things
for the orchestra to use this season.
and when made public will be found to
compare favorably with the best pro-
duced in the east. The announcement
of the artists has been deferred until
| the list is completed, but an extra eff
fort is being made to secure the best
available artists, and it will be pub.

1.-THE GRAVEYARD WAGON"
That Is the AppeIIation by Which Car
No. 16 Is Known

"All aboard the graveyard wagon!"
Such were the significant if not eu.
phonious terms in which the conductor
on car No. 1G announced his departure
for the cemetery over the street car
company's lines Saturday afternoon,
as a reporter for the Graphic happen
ed to appear on the corner of Main
and Second.
Perhaps it is one of the most sug.
gestive applications of the modern use
of slang ever heard on the streets OF
Pine Bluff, and shows that Pine Bluff
people are in ncwise behind the times.
Car No. s16 makes the run to the
cemetery, hence the term, graveyard
wagon" applied by the motorman. or
conductor, who startled his hearers
with his rather CHASTITY announcement.

Young Negro Held for Killing Woman
and Her Four Children.

daughter and three sons, aged 6, 8 and
10 years, respectively. who We're MUIR
dered yesterday near Edna, Tex, by a
negro. were inferred this afternoon
lin a single grave.
The discovery of bloody adj with
which the crime was committed, and
a bundle of discarded clothing found
by bloodhounds short distance from
the scene of the tragedy, are the only
clues left by the murderer. However,
as result of suspicion against Hank
Gibson, a 17-year-old negro boy who
was working in neighboring field,
and who gave the first alarm, his
home was searched and a tablecloth
with a bundle of bloody clothing, was
found concealed between the covers of
d bed.
If Mr.. Conditt the husband is able
to identify the articles, the negro will
probably be lynched.
Gibson was last night given 100
lashes by the sheriff, but stood the
punishment without flinching. The
sheriff is determined to have the truth
from him.

/, perhaps, too stringent, at the same
time it is better to follow and carry
cut the requirements of this code than
say lets take a chance.
"The ordinance calls for house to
house inspection of all electrical in
stallations. The idea in passing this
was not to work extra hardship on the
people, but as said before, to protect
the public Now imagine for mo-
ment that the inspector has reached
your house and asks permission to
look over the wires and other appli-
ances. The request is granted, and a
Thorough inspection is made, which re-
veals the fact that from an electrical
standpoint the house is in danger and
certain changes should be made. In
answer the occupant says: We'll, we
have been using these wires for five,
ten. Or twenty years, as the case may
be, and have never had any trouble.
Why can't we go ahead undisturbed?'
"This probably is the case. At the
same time let us draw an analogy
just for arguments sake:
1--WE all understand how water flows
through a pipe We know that a
bursted pipe allows leakage. We
know that too much water causes a
breakdown in the pipe. The same can
De said of a light wire, carrying the
stuff it allows to flow around the
molecules of it's makeup. Current
will heat Too much current on a
wire will heat it to the extent that the
insulation wire will be marred and a
sbursted' wire is the result; then a
leakage to the walls or flooring of
the house or building. Two of these
eakages or grounds complete the
circuit and the result-a fire.
"The question arises how to stop
these two leakages. There is only one
way, and that is to conform to the
rules of the national electric code,
which, of course. puts an end to all
these defects.
$50 far about thirty-ive inspections
have been made of old work done be-
fore the recent ordinance was passed
and not one of that number has beer
found safe, but on the other hand it
has been necessary to condemn them.
If reference is had to the inside in
stallations. The outside work is on
a condition equally as bad, and all is
being done by the electric light and
telephone companies to clear up all
dangers. In order to accomplish any
thing we must all work together. To
do this the public should report to the
inspectors office any defects they may
notice and at the same time ask for
an inspection if they think the house
is imperfectly wired.''

tories required under the law. This
was done by DR.. Clark and his find.
ing was that Burt was not insane in
any degree. On September 80, 1905,
the court appointed Dr.. II. Il. Viii,
liams to examine Chas r. Burt in Jail.
DR.. Williams did so and filed his in.
terrogatories with the court: his fino.
ing was that the man was not insane,
but that his mind was not perfectly
clear. The law requires that a man
charged with insanity be examined by
two reputable physicians. This has
been done. DR.. VIM Crutcher. who
was employed on or about August 3.

or Mr.. Brewster, who filed the affida-
Wit charging Burt with insanity after
he was placed in jail. also filed the
iEterrogatories at that time; the an
swors to most of the questions being
furnished by his brothers. The find.
ing of the county Judge therefore is,
that Chas. T.. Burt is not insane. AS
he is in Jail under a charge for which
the magistrate committed him to
await the action of the grand jury at
its September term, the clerk CT this
