VICAR GENERAL
 LUCEY AT HOME Returned Friday from a Beneficial S0iourn in the East, Where He Was Happily Received
RECENTLY IGNORED
Is Now Member of the P0pe's House. hOld-His Jurisdiction as Vicar General-Somcthing of the Popular Priests Remarkable Career.

Rt. Rev. Monsignor .J M. Lucey, "
 G., returned home last Friday from a two months vacation trip. He left
 May 27 with U. c. V. on their special train for Richmond, Va. After the reunion exercises, the Jamestown ex- position was visited in company with General Knox, Captains Bell, Ben ton, Tucker and others. From Nor folk, Va, the Monsignor took steam- CT down Hampton Roads to St. Cha"- les, whence he proceeded by train to New York City.
 The Monsignor's father married in Troy, N. Y., and soon afterwards moved to Rocky Comfort, Little River
 county, Ark, and few years after
 ward to Fort Smith. The other mem bers of the Lucey family settled ill New York state and the Monsiguor found number of cousins, among whom he spent several weeks and l then spent the remainder of his yaca- 1 tion at Far Rockaway Beach, Long Island.
 Just before his departure from 1 Pine Bluff for the reunion he receiv-
 ed information from Bishop Morris
 that he would be appointed Vicar
 General of the. diocese, which em-
 braces the state of Arkansas. The
 matter was not mentioned to any of
 his local friends but in Richmond, the l fact got out some way |. was pre-
 maturely published in the Arkansas ! Gazette. The office is next in rank tC
 that of Bishop. The office of Mon
 signor is more papal than a dio-
 cesan affair. A Monsignor of the first
 class, Right Reverend, is entitled to
 wear the purple robes and ranks in
 the order of bishops, though he does
 not thereby receive any extended jur- isdiction. He remains pastor of a
 parish. In Rome he is considered as 1 belonging to the household of the | Pope and enjoys special privileges
 as such. The title of Vicar Foranens l or Rural Dean, which Monsignor Lu- cey has had for several years, cor
 responds in general way to the office
 of Presiding Elder in the Methodist
 church, as it confers jurisdiction over
 a district.
 Bishop Morris has recently divided the diocese or state into districts or deaneries as they are called, the priests holding the office receive by courtesy the title of Very Reverend. A Vicar Foranens or Rural Dean has a limited Jurisdiction. A Vicar Gener- al has general Jurisdiction over the whole state. He is next to the bish- op in authority and acts for him in a general way, especially in his ab- sence from the state. Monsignor Lu- cey is the senior priest by ordination
 in the diocese, having been ordained at Fort Smith by Fitzgerald in, 1872.

 The many friends of MOnsignor enjoying good health and that he was much benefited by his vacation.

Eas5 Second Avenue Paving Will Be Done by Shelby and Petty, Little Rock Contractors.
TRANSIT COMPANY
Must Place Girder Rail Along the Newly Paved Street-F0urteen Blocks to Be Paved With Vitrified Brick.

The commissioners of the East Second avenue paving district met Saturday afternoon and let the con- tract for the paving of that thorough fare to Shelby and Petty. Little Rock contractors. The price is S1.S4 a < square yard, and 50 cents a linear foot for the curbing and gutters. The total cost of the contract is es- timated to be about $30,000.
 This meeting was to have been held some time ago, and it was thought that the contract would have been let then, but owing to unavoidable delays the contract was not let until Saturday afternoon. The contract calls for the paving of fl blocks on East Second avenue, from State street to Nebraska street with brick. Just what action will be taken about paving between the tracks of the car company has not been decided yet, but the contract ors will do as much as they can with the amount of money they have. It is thought that crushed rock will be placed between the tracks. and it is likely that this will be the course adopted by the commission CTS. By doing this they can make has been argued by citizens that the middle of the car track will not be used for traffic very much anyway and this is thought to be the more practical course. If at any time af- rewards, they desire to pave be- tween the car company's tracks they can do so much better than they could widen the street. As it is, the street will be betweer. g and 35 feet wide, possibly wider.
 In accordance with the franchise of the street car company in this city they will be required to lay the girder rail, in place of the '"T' rail which they are now using on that thoroqghfare. Mayor w L. Toney has issued the following notice: To the Citizens Light and Transit
 Company:
 nhv ond avenue of the city of Pine Bluff is about to be paved with brick from State street East thereon to. Ne braska street, and that you are therefore, under the terms of your franchise, required to substitute for the ''T' rail which You have now on said street, a flat chair, girder rail weighing not less than sixty pounds to the yard; and notice is hereby given you to proceed to put in said girder rail while said street is being paved, so as not to delay unnecessarily the contractor in his WOrK, aCCOTulLS Io IAC PA PAo'i'AoAAA in your franchise above mentioned.
 Yours Truly
 w. l.. Toney
 Mayor. The girder rail which is required by the franchise is similar to that now in use on East Sixth avenue, and Mayor Toney says that the car company must lay the track immed- lately to keep from having to tear up the street after it is paved. The paving will extend to the gate of the shop yards which is Nebraska street. The paving will be done with vitrified brick and the contractors say that they will start work on it AS soon as they can get the material here. This will not be more than sia weeks and they hope to have the work completed before the winter weather starts in .

DoWie'S Waterloo
New York Visit

NEW YORK. March st was in
New York that Dowie met his Waterloo.
In October. 1903. Dowie laid siege to
vice-ridden Gotham He came with an
army of 1900 Jealous invaders on nine
special trains from Chicago. preceded
by a blare of trumpets and press
agcntIy that has not been equaled i'm
the history Of religious movements in
this country. He rented Madison Square
Garden for his churcl. and quartered the
workers of his army there while he and
his STAFF occupied palatial quarters at
the Waldorf-Astoria.
For weeks before Dowie came he
flooded New York with announcements
Of his purposes. He declared that once
he got hold Of the city the devil would
be routed. the Great White Way would
be purged. and the tenderloin would be-
come as virtUous as a precinct in Zion
City.
But Dowle did not know New York,
and New Y ok gVInCed no inclination To
know Dovie. The miraculous SUCCESS
which had attended his revival services
in Chicago was not repeated here. New
Workers refused To- look on Elijah III.
as anything other than a huge joke.
The night of his opening service ne
characterized the newspaper men as
