Citizens Committee Notifies President
 Hurst They Have Thrown Up Fran chise-Opening May Be Postponed.
 Fort Smith, April 13.-Fort Smith will not be ill the Arkansas League. Notice to that effect was wired to the league officials today by the commit tee of citizens which took up the mat ter upon the refusal of Ted Sullivan. scout of the White Sox, to back the team in the league unless given a guarantee of Sunday ball. Baseball in Fort Smith without Sunday games was considered at mass meeting held tonight, and 1t was almost the universal. opinion that team under those circumstances could not last the season out. and 1t would be better to drop il. at the start, ~ .e V
 The. only logical site for 2 park where. Sunday games could be played Is Iin, the town of Arizona, across the line in, Oklahoma, adjacent; to the city limits. However, 1t would take q great deal of money to prepare the grounds, and build the park, which, with the financing of the team, the fans do not care to tackle. so the franchise goes begging in Fort Smith. A league team without Sunday ball was tried in Fort Smith two years ago and ended jisastrously. Emmett Rogers will have an independent team, which will be supported in part by popular subscriptions.
 "Yes, Fort Smith is out of It," said President Hurst last night. Il can't say just now what will be done. Some definite step will, without doubt, be taken tomorrow. Pine Bluff wants to get back in the league and there is another town that is anxious for franchise, but whether they could get read in time for the opening of the season Friday is question"

HE THINKS MOUNDS
 WOULD SAVE LIVES

Cengressman Wallace Advocates This Plan Along Aissi6sippiLAsks $ls0,-, saoo0 For Saline River for Improve ' ments.
 Washington, D. c. April 13.-Con- gressman Minor Wallace has renewed his former efforts to provide for the protection of human life and property along the Mississippi river between, the government levees and the river banks by the erection of mounds.
 Nr. Wallace as heretofore seeks to. take advantage of the demonstration by the aborigines of the utility of these mounds, his bill just introduc- ed providing for the erection of 50 of them as experiments, the expense to be $60.000.
 MT. Wallace's Contention.
 Mr. Wallace cites in preamble to hfs bill that there are more than 1.- 100000 acres of ground between the mouth of the Ohio river and the Head Passes owned and inhabited by ciu- xens of the United States, which land les between the lines of the levees now constructed and those to be built and the river banks. He cites that the continually higher building of the levees increases danger to human lie and that the added risk arises as aSresult from the building of the gov ernment levees. He likewise cites that 1t was the practice of the origin q inhabitants to use such mounds.
 Wants to Improve Saline.
 Congressman Wallace also has of- fered a bill to appropriate $150.o0o to lock and dam and otherwise im- prove the Saline river between War ren, Ark, and the point where it emp ties into the Ouachita river in Ar kansas. The proposed locks and dams are to be built near or at Moores Mill or Hampton Landing, and the purpose is to straighten, dredge and otherwise improve the channel.

Laid Down The Frying-Pan.

When, at Gaines Mill in 1862, the 5th
Texas captured two whole regiments OF
Yankees, the Texan soldiers were all very
proud OF their achievement. J. b. Policy
was one Of them, and in his Soldiers
Letters to Charming Nellie" he describes
an amusing scene in connection with the
surrender.
When the Yankee officers surrendered
their swords in body TO Colonel Upton,
they were so prompt in the duty that he
was compelled to lay down the frying
pan which he carried in place OF a sword,
and held the weapons presented in his
arms.
lust then he noticed a commotion at the
far end OF the captured regiments. That
was near the timber, and squad OF the
prisoners were making an effort TO pass
by "Big John Ferris" OF Company b,
who stood there unaided, endeavoring to
intercept them.
Springing up on a log, the amful OF
swords dangling about in every direction,
Upton shouted:
"You John Ferris! What are you try
ing to do now?"
"I'm trying to keep these fellows from
escaping" returned big John in a stem
torian voice.
"Let them go, you internal fooll"
shouted back Upton. "We'd sight rath-
er fight 'em than feed EN-"

A warning against probing too deeply

this story from the New York Sun. A
tale Of jurymen appeared before a certain
Missouri judge, and every man explained
that il would mean disaster TO him to
serve at that term OF court--all but a little
fellow al the end OF the line, hunter who
had lived in a cabin on the creek all h's
life.
"You have no excuse TO offer 2" asked
the surprised Judge.

"You think you can spare the tine to

"Surc."
The Judge sat a while and meditated.
Reaching over, he whispered TO the clerk.
who shook his head in perplexity. Then
the judges curiosity got the better OF him.
"You are the only man who has got the
time to serve your country as a iurynian."
he said. Would you mind telling me
how il happens 2"
"Sure not" the little man replied
promptly. 81 heard you was going to

He showed the letter and the result to an
acquaintance in another line Of business,
who persuaded him to print the same let

The newspaper advertisements cost $l24.
The profits on the sales directly attributed

mail orders still coming in at the end OF

that the newspaper carries business an

with much greater certainty Of effective
delivery than Uncle Sam.

THE RIDE OF PAUL REVERE.

Listen. my children. and you shall hear
OF the midnight ride Of Paul Revere
On the eighteenth OF April in Seventy-fve;
Hardly man is now alive
Who remembers that famous day ana year.
He said 10 his friend. IF the British march
By land or sea from the town tonight.
Hang lantern aloft in the belfry arch
OF the North Church tower as signal light
One, if by land. and two. il by sea;
And on the opposite shore will be.
Ready 10 ride and spread the alarm
Through every Middlesex village and farm.
For the country-folk TO be up and TO arm.
II was twelve by the village clock
When he crossed the bridge into Mediord town'
He heard the growing OF the COCK.
And barking OF the farmers dog.
And felt the damp OF river fog
That rises after the sun goes down
II twas one by the village clock,
When he galloped into Lexington.
He saw the gilded weathercock
Swim in the moonlight as he passed,
And the Westinghouse windows. blank and bare
Gaze at him with spectral glare
As if they already stood aghast
AT the bloody work they would look upon.
II was two by the village clock.
When he came TO the bridge in Concord town.
He heard the bleating OF the flock,
And the twitter OF the birds among the trees.
And felt the breath OF the morning breeze
Blowing over the meadows brown
And one was safe and asleep in his bed
Who at the bridge would be first 10 fall.
Who that day would be lying dead.
Pierced by British musket bail.
You know the rest In books you have read,
How the British Regulars fired and fled.
How the farmers gave them ball for ball,
From behind each fence and farm-yard wall.
Chasing the red-coats down the lane,
Then crossing the fields to emerge again
Under the trees al the turn of the road
And only pausing TO fire and load
So through the night rode Paul Revere.
And so through the night went his CRY OF alarm
To every Middlesex village and FARM
A cry Of defiance and not Of fear,
A voice in the darkness, knock at the door,
And word that shall echo iorevermore
For borne on the night wind OF the Past
Through all our history TO the last.
In the hour Of darkness and peril and need.
The people will waken and listen TO hear
The hurrying hooi-beats Of that steed,
And the midnight message OF Paul Revere.
