PENSION WARRANTS
 TO BE ISSUED

The statement made by State Auditor Avry Moore Saturday that he would issue the Confederate Pension warrants as soon as they can be signed settles the question of the attitude of this official on most important matter says the Little Rock Democrat. Dr. Moore states that he has never had any other idea than to issue the warrants, both on the school and pension fund, regard less of the reports in the newspap- CTS. He had steadfastlv refused to discuss the matter with the news paper men, and his statement Sat urday was the more surprising. The fact that he was at the time signing the warrants perhaps lead to his utterance however.
 There are more than 5000 of warrants, and the clerks in the of flee are filling them out as fast as possible. When they are completed the auditor will send them to the clerks of various counties, to be by them distributed to various parties. County Clerk Joe Asher desires it known ,..at the warrants for Pulaski County have not been received by him, and will not until all are sent out, and that as soon as they are received by him, he will so an nounce through the city press. so that all who have warrants may pre- sent themselves as soon as the war rants are ready.

 Philadphia, Penn.. Sept, 10.- Philadelphians are raising howl against the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Company because the con- cern wants to reduce street car fares. They do not object to the reduction so much as they protest against carrying around with them a pocketful of pennies all the time.
 The Rapid Transit Company, which controls all of the street car lines of the city, wants to abolish transfers and the tickets now sold at the rate of for 25 cents, and is willing to accept a straight fare of cents. The people are oppos- ed to the plan because they cannot figure out where they are going to get enough pennies to go around.

LITTLE COTTON
 IS YET GINNED
Census Bureau Reports Show There Is Not Half as Much as at This
 Time Last Year.

Washington, Sept. 10.-The Census Bureau today issued it's first bulletin on the cotton report for the season as shown by the returns from the ginners, showing a total of 191, ,416 bales up to September 1, as compared with 407,551 bales up to the same period last year. In this statement round bales are counted as half bales. The great falling off is attributed to the lateness of the crop.
 The reports show that there were only 4.067 ginneries in operation Sep tember this year, as compared with 6,53S in 1906. The product by states for the present year follows:
 Alabama 7,345, Arkansas S5, Florida Louisiana 112. Mississippi 1 1,12S, North Carolna 43, Oklahoma ), South Caro- lima 3,030. TeXas 145,101. Last year Texas had ginned 32S,5S6 bales before September 1.

TAFT OFF ON
 WORLD TOUR

Seattle. Wash. Sept, 10.-With the cheers of thousands of enthusi- asjic admirers ringing in his ears, Secretary Taft today boarded the steamship Minnesota for journey that. when completed. will have talk cn him around the world With the "secretary of peace goes Mrs. Taft, his son, Charles; Brigadier General Clarence Edwards, chief of the insuIar bureau; Fred W. Car penter, private secretary and a ne gro attendant. The party will be accompanied on the world tour by number of prominent newspaper correspondents, among them Robert l.. Dunn, war correspondent of Col Hers Weekly, who covered the Rus sO-Japanese war, and Robert H. Murray, the veteran correspondent of the Philadelphia North American who will send dispatches to a syndi- cate of leading papers throughout the country
 According to the itinerary, the Secretary and his party will arrive in Yokohoma, Japan, September 25. At that port they will disembark and spend eight days in the Flowery Kingdom where Mr. Taft is well known by reason of previous visit. While the Secretary declares that his Japanese visit possesses no diplo- matic bearing, it is believed that he will use his influence to bring about an amicable agreement in regard to the exclusion of Japanese from this country. While in Japan, MT. Taft will visit Toyio, Kobe, Nagasli and one or two other cities. The party will sail from Nagaski October i for Shanghai, arriving there two days later and after a short stay will proceed to Hong Kong. There the party will board the army transport Mcclellan on October ii, and ar Manila he will preside at the open ing of the first national assembly. Twenty-two days will be spent in the Philippines, most of the time in Manila and vicinity. but few in ter-island visits will likely be made.
 On November I, the party will leave Manila on one of the naval cruisers, probably the Chattanooga or a vessel of that type, for Vladi- vOstock. the eastern terminus of the Trans Siberian railway. Mrs. Taft is said to be responsible for inducing her husband to undertake the trip by rail across the wilds of frozen Siberia. but the Taft political mana gers believe it will prove 10 be of great value to the press agents of the Taft presidential boom. Arriv- ing in Vladivostocll on November l.. lowing day on a special car and reach the party will leave that city the fol- lrkutsk, the Siberian metropolis, on November 16,. Almost without stop the party will proceed to Moscow, where it is due November 23 and remain two days The capital of the great white CZar will be reached November 26. Two days will be spent in St. Petersburg, when the party will depart for Berlin. Novem- Der 29 is the date set for the arrival of the Taft party in the German cap- ital, where two days will be spent. From Bremen or Hamburg, the party will then sail for New York, arriving there between December 10 and 15. Newspaper correspondents acquainted with the trend of events and the possibilities of foreign trav- e] in arousing interest in candl- date, believe that the secretary's re- turn to America will be marked by the greatest political demonstration in the history of the country.

Dramatic Schools.

Like art students, the school Of act
ing pupils form little world of their
own. All their days, of course, are
spent together, and in the evenings, as
tickets are often sent to the schools by
the managers when there is room,
they go to plays together. At the thea
ter they tell each other knowingly
what the actors on the stage ought to
have done. They live in the ebullient
atmosphere of mutual criticism and
endless theoretical argument of young
people who are all trying to do the
same thing. Naturally they drift at
once into that easy familiarity Of the
sexes characteristic of all art schools
where young men and women are
brought together on equal terms. The
girls outnumber the men two to one
and even more. which, in casting the
plays, at least, makes the men do dou-
bic duty and get twice the opportun-
ties. Possibly the reason that fewer
men go to the schools than women is
largely economic. possibly it is because
more women are. stage smitten, but
the plant of the schools is that of the
summer resort-there are not enough
men to go acknowledgement Tassin in
