,fES DISASTER
 FOR ARKANSAS
oH Rurnett, President of State Divi- .ion of Southern Cotton Ass0ci- ation Says Cotton Prices Must
 Be Advanced.

cbickalah, Oct. 22.-A call to tho cotton men, merchants, sorkers and professional men ofArkansas to rally to the sup port of the cotton grower through participation in the mass meeting at Memphis, Nov omber 10, II, 12, called by Har- vie Jordan, president of the Southern Cotton Association, was issued today by B. H. Bur. nett. president of the Arkansas division of the Southern Cotton Association.
 That the present price of cot ton which means disaster, he says. to the people of Arkansas, can be raised more easily now than in 1905 when it was ad- ranced from six cents to 10 and il cents, if the farmers, mer- chants. bankers and profes- sionnal men will cooperate, is the assertion of Mir. Burnett. His full statement is as follows:
 Chickalah, Ark, Oct. P, '08. ''To the People of Arkansas:
 "A mass meeting of the peo- ple of the South, who are inter- ested in the price of cotton, has been called by Hon. Harvie Jor- dan of Atlanta, Georgia, to be held in Memphis, Tenn, on the 10th, 11th and 18th of Novem- Der. I am very anxious that Arkansas shall be represented at this meeting. All are aware that the present prices of cotton are below the cost of production and means financial disaster to people of our State. There is a feeling of unrest among the agricultural classes as is evi- denced by the night riders no- tices received by the various gins and merchants throughout

TRAIN STRIKES
 LOGAN'S COAL WAGON
Phil Garrison, the COIOred Driver Es- capes With Possibly a Few Bruises.
 Narrow Escape.

This morning train No. 35. due here at 7.1O, which was running an hour and ten minutes late, struck the coal wagon of Sam O.. Logan at the intersection of the railroad and Walnut street and seriously hurt Phil Garrison, the colored driver, demolished the wagon, and shinned up the mules hitched to it.
 The negro who is hard of hear ing, was looking toward the de- pot, and was not aware of the approaching train until it was too late. The engine struck the wagon center between the front and hind wheels, throwing the driver about twenty feet and bruising him about the head and shoulders as well as hunting him internally. The mules were con- siderably jostled and it is not yet known whether they are seriously injured or not.

SCENT FARE FOR ST. LOUIS

St. Louis. Oct. 21.--According to city officials, the action of the United Railway company in con- tinuing it's fight against the one-mill passenger tax may re- suit in legislation for Scent fares. It has been the general feeling among officials for some time that the company was stir ring up adverse public sentiment that would result in a demand for three-cent fare legislation. Mayor Wells yesterday again voiced the sentiment by deciar- ing that the company would find the 1-mill tax much more desir- able than Scent fares. He said his statement was not a threat but suggestion Of what he thought the outcome of the an tagonism to the asserted rights of the city.

the state. No one can deny the fact that in 1905, when the whole of the business interests of the South were represented at the mammoth convention held in the city of New Orleans, at which resolutions were passed demanding 10 cents for the un- sold portion of the crop of 1904, which was the largest we have ever raised, and which was then selling at six cents per pound, that in less than four months from the passage of said resolu- tiOns, we got from 10 to Ii cents for cotton. This can be accom- plished much more easily now, than then, from the fact that it is evident that the present crop cannot reach anything near the crop of 1904. All we need is the cooperation of all interests of the south. Let farmers, merchants, bankers and professional men give us their assistance now as they did in 1905, and Scent cot ton will very soon be a thing of the past. Hoping to meet a large delegation of the citizens of Arkansas at Memphis on the above date, 1 am,

AGED PEOPLE
AWAIT DECREE
Judge Jackson of Henry Cir
cult Court Has EIstro Case
Under Amusement.
WRONGS WERE FANCIED.
THIS THE DEFENSE CLAIMS AND
STATES 1T WOULD BE SHAME
TO SEPARATE PEOPLE MAR
RIED FORTY-FIvE YEARS.

No decision has been rendered in the
Elstro divorce case, which was on trial
in the Wayne circuit court yesterday.
The case was not concluded until aft
er O'Clock. The evidence required
so long to place before the court that
the argument of the attorneys was cut
short. Judge Jackson, of the Henry
circuit court, who heard the case, has
taken it under advisement He has
not intimated when he will render his
decision.
The defense based it's claim for de-
cision on the ground the trouble be-
tween Mrs. Elstro and her husband
does not exist SO much from realities,
as the fancied wrongs impressed upon
by her two daughters and their hus-
bands. 1t was charged there is an i'm
proper interest that has been manifest
ed by the latter and that divorce is
desired by them, so they may some
time obtain the possession of certain
property interests. 1t was maintained
by Adam Elstro, one of the sons, that
his mother had become overweight
as the result of the advice offered by
his sisters adverse to their father.
The defense claimed it would be a
shame to separate two persons by law
who have been married forty-five
years and now are sixty-eight years
old.

Buriap as Wall Covering Is Durabis
and Artistic.
Burlap as a wall covering is now
recognized as being very artistic as
we'll as durable. It is now made in the
finer grades and in all colors, so that
it will meet any requirement 1t is
very effective for use in the dining
room if properly handled.
Burlap makes an excellent material
for window or door curtains in a room

ing. Stencil patterns can be drawn by
any one who uses the pencil little.
Frequently in magazines are found or
namental head and tail pieces that will
furnish the motive scrolls, convention
al leaves, circle and dart patterns and
fieur-de-lis.
Draw the pattern small at first and
then develop 1t on an enlarged scale
upon a sheet of stiff but thin card
board. When it is penciled clearly cut
it out with the scissors. They will
give a smoother line than the penknife,
though in using scissors the stencil
must be cut through at one point. This
is remedied. however, by gluing the
edges together with strip of paper on
each side.
A stenciled border for window cur
tains or portieres runs down the center
and along the lower edge. The goods
must be laid fat on an even surface,
stretched across a large pie board by
means Of small wire nails or over the
bare wood of a kitchen table.
The kind Of paint used is known to
decorators as "distemper coloring." 1t
should be applied in a smooth wash
and should be neither pasty nor thin,
for If too thin it is apt to run, and If
thick it forms into Jumps. A fat and
rather pliable brush spreads the color
evenly.
Be careful to press the stencil down
firmly around the edges over the part
being painted to prevent the colors
from running underneath the card
board and making an uneven line. To
repeat the pattern lift the stencil, wipe
clean and lay it over the proper spot.
A little care about this matter will as
sure the proper spacing.
The best way to keep the design in
alignment, however, is to stretch the
entire curtain evenly on the bare floor
Of an unused room. Draw a string
taut between the two nails at either
end Of the curtain and use it as q
guide line to keep the stencil straight
Where the design is a leaf pattern
with stem the latter may be Joined
afterward free hand, making the en-
tire border continuous.
Almost any piece of goods in a fiat
color and of sufficient weight can be
made into table cover either by STEM
Cling or by stitching to it a border of
tapestry, silk or cotton cut with mi
tered corners.

Greater improvements Made
This Year Than Any
Previous Time.
NO OBJECTION REGISTERED
STREETS OF RICHMOND ARE IN
GOOD REPAIR AND CITY coUN-
ciLMEN HAVE NO FAULT WITH
EXPENSE.

More street improvements have
been made in Richmond this year than
any preceding year for some time past.
In 1905 and 1907 the city each year
expended between $4,000 and $25, 900
for street improvements. Council was
Informed last night by City Controller
Parry and w. P. O'Neal of the board
that the citys street improvement bill
this year would amount to between
$4,000 and $4,000.
These statements were made last ev-
ening to council in explanation of an
ordinance appropriating $1,7oo for the
payroll of the street commissioner,
which was passed under suspension Of
the rules. The city throughout the
year has had large number of men
employed on street work and there
has been large amount of crushed
stone used. Street Commissioner Dye
now has nearly every street in the city
in good shape and council has no OBJ
lection to appropriating money for this
work so long as it continues to be as
satisfactory as it now Is.
Mr.. O'Neal explained that this year
North Fourteenth street. North Tenth
street and South E street from Fifth
street to Sixth street had been maca-
damed, several storm sewers had
been made and that improvements
would yet be made this year on North
Eighth street and North d street.
i He said that graveling work had
been done on the following streets:
North Third, FIT. Wayne avenue, from
Fifth street to D, Washington avenue,
North E from Tenth to Nineteenth,
one square on North Thirteenth, one
square on North Twelfth, five squares
ON North Sixteenth, North d from Fit
Wayne avenue to the c. c. & l.. rail
road, the National road in front of
Glen Miller park, Newman's Hill road.

MARY GARDEN COUTURE.
Arrangement la That's tho Very Lat
est Wrinkle,

The latest effect in evening coiffures
is the arrangement a la That's, that
affected by Mary Garden in her inter
probation Of this role While it is ex-
tremely effective and artistic, it has an
advantage in that it's arrangement
does not offer very grave difficulties
and that it can be accomplished even
where the growth of hair is not abun-
dant.
The hair is divided across the head,
waved very little, and then the
front hair Is again divided by center
part. Both sides of the front hair are
then pulled out loosely and secured a
little beneath the crown of the head,
after which the previously waved back
hair is brushed up to met the front
hair and is also pulled out in pompa-
dour effect. This, however must be as
irregular and soft in outline as posi-
BILE; otherwise the artistic effect pro-
duced by the finished couture will not
come up to requirements. Unite the
long strands of hair and form a large
Psyche knot we'll in the center Of the
head, pinning it down securely with q
lew laise sHeH piHS. IL preferred
large bun or plain coil or a figure
s may be substituted for the Psyche
If the hair is not sufficiently long
and thick to make a large knot
small one would not be in keeping
with the full arrangement of the hair
or even braid laid fat over the head
Puffs in Grecian style are also permits
Sible with this couture, and as many
as nine of them may be made-or pur-
chased-arranging them in fat, irregu-
lar rows over the back Of the head. A
Grecian filet is placed in front Of the
couture
