ARKANSAS DIAMONDS
Probably Came From Washington
 COunty-Old Cave Discovered.

Fayetteville Ark, Sept, H. A local paper is authority for the statement that the diamonds found in South Arkansas probably came from Washington county. This as- sertion was called forth by the dis covery of hidden cave in the mountains a few miles from this place by hunting party, who no- ticed two stones standing at each end of big flat rock, which, when moved, proved to be the opening to hugh cave which unmistakable signs of having been use1 in tho past. Near the opening of the cae was large tree, on which was ccrved turtle and other signs, and just across from the river (. large number of bones have beer plowed ID. South of the perpendicular entrance to the cave are nun erous
 .rt: .'cmistakable signs of mining. and it is the opinion of some, that this surface mining is the work of French or Spanish adventures. as it is plainly evident that the work was done many years ago. Pieces of stones of different color from any on the surface are also visible here and the remains of an old road can be traced. A large excavation too, concealed by the underbrush.
 This story calls to mind the facs that a Georgia man was here some years ago with chart of that dis trict, pointing out a mine, and in which he interested several men. Prospecting at that time, how proved fruitless.

land, Miss, has been engaged to teach the third and fourth grades at First Ward school and comes highly recommended. Four changes will take place at the Sixth Avenue school. Miss Gertrude Dodds will have charge of room 1, taught the past year by Miss Mildred Larche, now Mrs. D. V. Duncum of Hot Springs. Miss Carmichael will have room 3 and Miss Virgie Hudson, who has a host of friends in Pine Bluff, her native home, will have charge of room 2.
 A new school will be located at East Barraque and Idaho streets and will be in charge of Miss Edith Gauntt, assisted by Miss Mildred owen. Quite a settlement has re- gently grown up in this neighbor- hood and about 15O school chil- dren are enrolled there. So far no successor to Professor Keith at the Sixth Avenue school has been se- cured though Dostor Jordan is in correspondence with several capable teachers. Public exercises will be conducted at the Pine Street school, at which Doctor Jordan and the members of the Board will make short talks and to which the public is cordially invited.
 There have been no changes in any of the colored public schools during the past year.
 After several months vacation for teachers and pupils the opening of the public schools will be welcomed with great anticipations on the part of the pupils as we'll as the teachers. The past several days have been spent by the teachers in ar ranging the usual details for the opening and the downtown stores, where school books are made spe- cialties, have been literally jan,- med with little ones, purchasing books, slates and other necessary school room articles. The coming year in the Pine Bluff schools prom ises to be most successful one.

Humors of Sculpture.

when architects insist on decorating
the facades of public buildings with
symbolical groups" remarked a New
York philosopher, they often add un-
consciously to the humor of everyday
life. Just look at those two cherubs
over the central window on top of the
hall Of records, for example. How can
any one with memory ever forget the
scandals OF the construction of that
building In looking at these two fig
ures? One of them is plainly going
over the account books Of the cost.
