The Future Interest in Our American
Life" In the course of his remarks hs
said this country stands for INDUSTRIAL ism.
as do the other civilized countries of the
world.
Stands for Industrialism.
The age of militarism is past" he de-
clared. 1t has seen its best days and
will not return. We are not interested in
the game of kings who pay checkers with
great armies. We believe the days Of
force are thing of tn, past. ana the
days OF reason and arbitration are near.
Our interest lies in industrial and educs-
tional problems. which require the nm 81
thoughts and strongest physique or our
young men
In his Introductory address Prof. Ever
mann said that the studies that count a.e
those which train the hand and ,ye.
which require close and logical thinking
and physical manifestation OF the same
in co-ordnated action.
The subjects that count. he added.
ARE those which put US in touch with tie
busy. industrial. intellectual and SOCIAL
life of this busy world in which We live
today.
The boy or girl in a school such as
this is apt TO know what he is here for.
1t is well to know what you are dong; to
have a purpose: to be ambitious in some
honorable direction. He who aims at
nothing is already dead. There is no ..ope
for him. Only the sexton and the under
taker can serve his purposes.

SHERIFF PHILPOT

Dep uty Sheriff Walter Stewart, who &C., companied him there remained in that section of the state with the nj 3t..- hounds and the posse, at last reports, was close on the heels of the murder CTS
 The report, which threw this city into widest excitement Saturday af- noon, to the efseat that Sheriff Phil pot had been shot and killed, has not been explained. Sheriff Phi!pot's friends were much alarmed for sev- eral hours until 6 telephone mess age from Mr. Philpot at Hampton, reliev- ed the situation. Sheriff Philpot was

REPEAL. MlDMIGHT
 CL0SIHG ORDINANCE
City Council Will Permit Saloons to Remain Open All Night During the Co1nin Year Increase City Dramshop License From $500 to $1,000 Per An num-Twenty Applications For Licenses Granted

The City Council Monday night |adopted B compromise ordinance which will net the city an additional |Ss,o0o each year and will permit the saloons of the city to remain open all night. After a brief executive session of the Council, held ill the Mayors office, an ordinance was pre- sented repeating q previous ordin- ance regulating the closing of sa- looms and another amending Section iNo. 733,. increasing the city saloon license from $500 to s1 900 per an rum. Both ordinances were unani- mously adopted.
 By the adoption of these ordinances q satisfactory arrangement was made which will probably result in the immediate renewal of saloon licenses iby all the local saloonists now do- ling business ill this city.
 Ordinance No. 904 passed January E6, 1908, was repealed. This ordinance provided that all saloons in the city
 should be closed at midnight and re- main closed until o'clock each
 morning. For the past twelve months
 this ordinance has been in effect and
 its enforcement resulted in a notice
 able falling off fin the receipts of the
 Police Department. It~also had a
 tendency to make the midnight hours
 lonesome ones in the downtown dis
 tricts and incidentally caused the
 streets to be deserted after the mid
 night hour.
 It is understood that the Council
 men repealed the midnight closing ordinance to make a concession to
 the saloon people and avoid opposi-
 tion to an increase ill the City's dram
 shop licenses from $500 to $1 1000. Ap- plications for twenty saloon licenses
 were granted by the Council last night for 1909, which means about $S,000
 additional revenue for the city from the liquor people, the increase being
 $400 for each saloon.
 The following were granted licel-

The other ordinance, providing for an assess mept of property, was repealed at the last meeting of the Council because so much territory in the district cav~ ed into the river The property own CTS in the district will have to pay the assessments of property which was swept away Under the new or diflanee all assessments made several weeks ago will be increased

seated in the corridor of the notel there when he heard some meu d;s- cussing the rumor as being in c,r- culation in Pine Bluff. He made jy.- quiries and immediately telephoncd to his home here to deny it. He said he realized the uneasiness that it wolId cause his family and he did not walt la minute to communicate with them. Mrs. Philpot had not been informed
 of the rum0r. Miss lola Philpot re-
 ceived several calls over the tele- phone. making inquiry as to her fathers return home, but the careful
 ones would not let on that the re- port of her fathers death had been spread over the city. Finally. she became alarmed at the many inquir- ies and when she heard the phone ring for about the eighteenth time she answered it nervously. The person at the other end broke the news by asx-
 ing if it was true that her father had been killed. Miss Philpot was terri ,bly shocked by the message and she and her brother, Eugene Philpot,
 with the aid of the other members ot
 the family, succeeded in keeping their
 mother in the kitchen until they eith-
 Ter confirmed or learned the incor-
 rectness of the report. While they were trying to get Hampton, Sheriff
 Philpot got them over the phone and
 talked with them. The members of
 the Philpot family confined to keep
 the news of the report from Mrs. Phil-
 pot until his return, for fear she
 might think he had been injured.
