An Enjoyable Play.

Every situation in the new play of the "HIDDEN HAND" appeals to the human heart, say the critics who have seen it and they have most flattering compli- ments for the author and produc- CT. The most encouraging praise IS added that the drama is high class. It appears to have all the thrills and powerful eli maXes a melodrama should have without any of the absurdities and cheap sensations. Rest, con- tentment, the simplicity of moun- tam life in Virginia before the War, the comedy, superstition, pieturesqueness and romance of the baekwoods people give the play It's genuinely interesting character. In this instance, the producer, Fred c. Conrad, and author Eugene Moore, all actor ot h1gh standing have worked to- gether to make thoroughly en- Joyable drama.

The Springdale News will make the foolish experiment of a twice-a-week paper. We have always regarded the editor oe the News as a pretty level-headed fellow, but if lie don't pay well for this experience 1t will be be- cause he don't try 1t very long. The semi-weekly country paper is q dead and buried relic of the busted past.
 The above encouraging words are from the Green Forest Trib- une. Before undertaking the twice-a-week the editor of this paper consulted with some of those who have been publishing a twice a week paper for years. and it was their opinion that the two-times-a-week country news paper was success. We would have conferred with the editor of the Tribune, but was not aware that he had had experience along this line. However. we are not prepared just yet to accept the Tribune's verdict.

Of course Senator Keel of Jackson County, who introduced the bill to remove the University to Little Rock, does not expect the bill to pass, and 1t IS to be hoped the representatives from this section will not get excited over the matter.

The bill comes up every session, and 1t IS usually introduced for the purpose Of whipping the members from this section into line for some pro- posed legislation in which the author of the bill IS interested. We remember the session of 1901, wheu Judge Humphreys of this County was speaker of the House, this same bill was introduced, and the threat of some member to call up the 'sUniyersity re- moVal billa had the same effect on the Speaker as a red rag way ed m the face of d mad bovine.
