clever girls wits may be charged
the arrest Of William Zanting and his
mother, Mrs. Zimmerman, on charge
OF counterfeiting.
Lucy Dekorne is the girls name,
and she clerks in a suburban bakery.
Zanting lived near the bakery and
since January has been buying goods
there. The girl noticed that he always
paid for them with dimes, but thought
nothing of teh circumstance until two
weeks ago, when a friend told her
Zanting had once been charged with
counterfeiting.
She saved the money lie gave her
thereafter and found it possible to
bend the dimes between her fingers.
Saturday the man came TO the
place, but had no money and said he
would be back later. The girl notified
detectives and they waited for Zant-
ing, catching him just after he had
passed a bad dime.
Seven dimes which he had passed
on the girl are available for evidence
and q ladle was found in his room.
Zaning was arrested eight years ago,
charged with counterfeitisf, but got
off by feigning insanity. He was
coming dollars and five-dollar pieces
at that time. For four years the po-
lice have been watching him, but
were at a loss until the quick-witted
girl helped them out.

A CITY OF AUTOS
Short History of the Evolution of the horseIess Carriage in Pine Bluff, and Some of the Men Who Have Contributed To Its Introduction.

There is no better indication of both the growth and the progressiyeness of Pine Blutf than the evolution of the automobile in her midst. The first appearanee of the automobile on tue streets of the city, six years ago. creat- ed q distinct sensation. That ma chine was brought here from Hot Springs, during a gun tournament, by C. E. Del .Ong, and sold by him to Dick Charlan. Finally this machine was sold by c. G. Schenck to the HOllenberg Music company of Little Rock IL was a tWO-Seated surrey Ot the locomobile style and would now be regarded as wholly inadequate for the demands of an up.tO-date mOtorlst. However it served to introduce the new method of locomotiOn to the cit izens, and the next autos brought to the city by Dr. A G. Thompson and kllr0y dlSptaScu q ulaIhSu dusdAGc in workmanship and speed power Each year has added larger and finer machines until at the present time no city of it's size ill the south can make a better showing.
 The fortunate pOsessors ol these automobiles have shown commend able spirit of enterprise. as was man. ifested in the organization, about two months ago, of the Pine Bluff Automo- bite club This club not only has for it's object the fostering of goodfel- lowshp and cultivation of an invigo- rating exercise, but hopes also to ma terially advance the good roads move menr. so auspiciously begun In Jef' ferson county.

 Ahont year ago the city fathers, seeing that automobiles were being Licensed to run in other large cities, piaced tax, or license, ON the au. tomoblcs in Pine Bluff So eNor};. tant Was this tax that the Pin" Bluff Automobile club, at it's organization drew np and filed Il petition with the city council petitioning tha the auto mobiles be taxed the same ;aS sther vehicles. An ordinance was passed to this effect and it is as cn"ap t) run a fine automobile oil the street, of Pine Bluff today as it is ic run q surrey
 Ii is not altogether a se}tsi: ptpaS- urc enjoyed by the owner of q speed car for he contributes is quota Of influence all to the he!terment of ike streets and roadways of his communi ty and thus enables less fortunate cit izens to reap substantial profit froln improved conditions Without good roads much of the pleasure Of tour ing is lost and the danger Of acci- dents is increased many fold by badly kept driveways,
 Many physicians of the eastern states are advising patients 10 take what may be called the automobile cure for many troubles which re- quire change of scene The motor car gives this without the long, wear isome railway journeys or the discotn forts attendant upon a portracted stay from home.
 To get a clearer idea or the num- Der and quality of the automobiles in Pine Bluff one needs only to visit Fifth or Sixth avenues in the even. ings from to o'clock, or still better 10 look at the beautiful pamphlet which was recently gotten out by Geo II Adams
