On Roll Cal! Member Has the Right iO Take Up Any Measure in
 Which He is Interested

Little Rock, February L. Today the Arkansas General As sembiy began it's fourth week and it promised to be as full of bus mess as the preceding three weks of the session. It Is Impossible now however to make more than conjecture of what is to come up during the week. and what will be acted upon, on account of the new rules which have been adopted for business in the House. With the roll call in that branch now, the member on call can bring from a committee any bill i'll it's hands, introduce new bills or bring up any other business in which he is interested. This will prolong the roii call over the day sometimes, but will allow each member time to have busi- nesI in which he is interested transacted. The new rules went into effect this morning. Under the rules the member on call has lHe rlSnt to complete hlS DuSl- ness before the next member can be called. The new rules were adopted With a view or giving each member equal rights on the floor and shutting off some who nave been mOnopolizing the time of the House.

A NEW FIELD
 FOR THE BLIND
The State School for the Blind Introduces the PhOnograph In StenO.
 graphic Work

Little Rock, February l. Close study by Supt. s. D. Lucas Of the Arkansas School for the Blind has opened up new field of industry for the blind pupils not only Of Arkansas, but Of the entire world. Supt~Lucas has been the most attentive official the Blind School ,of Arkansasrha ever had, spending many extra hours daily working out plans to relieve his wards of arduous lab- ors, or making their tasks easier for them. All blind schools of the United States are equipped with typewriters upon which the students become often very pro- ficient, using the touch system in writing, but they have never been able tlo make a living in this manner 'as they could not be taught shorthand writing or if they could be taught to write there would be no way for them to. read it. Some months ago " HNil pllODOto o plS DcS du tO make their way into business of ficeS and claim a permanent D ace Supt. Lucas secured one for the Blind School as an experiment. Letters were read into the in- strument and the records would repeat these to the pupils. After months of patient. work with the pupils Supt. Lucas announces the experiment to be more than satisfactory and, with the aid of the photograph the blind pu- pills can secure employment in offices and do work as well as stenographera who see, Supt Lu- cas says there is less liability of mistake in the work Of the blind pupil, which is done in the manner of machine, than there is in the seeing person. ISpeci- mems of the work done at the Blind School from photographic dictation bear out the state ments of Supt. Lucas.

He says he is will ing to put in a little time in Jail for the state if necessary, and will never regret doing so. At tOrney General NorwOOd says he will never be sent to jail for sle has not been guilty Of contempt and the Chancellor will so de- eide. Attorney General NOrwood, in the closing arguments for Supt. PitcOck Saturday declared the injunction should never have been granted and for that req son no cOntempt could be com mitted He said the petition for the restraining order. on it's face showed the, contract between the State and the Arkansas Brick & Manufacturing Co.,, to be at an end, and if such was the case the injunction should not have been Issued, and if the injunction should not have been issued a de- fendant cannot be prosecuted for a violatio of it's orders.

 Morgan, Utah, via Ogden. Utah. June 1S.-The two wounds that I received Wednesday night by a fall. and the in- tense heat in this mountainous district. compelled me to stop at Morgan. Utah. twenty three miles from Ogden. and for the same reason am waiting until 6 P. M for my start to Ogden, where I expect to arrive at midnight.
 I have not. however. been idle, as I am making arrangements for my walk to San Francisco via the Southern Pa cific Railroad route. The officials have kindly consented to give me every as- sistance so that I may have proper care and sufficient nourishment to get me safely over the desert. This assur- ance has caused me great joy. and has been the best bit of encouragement since leaving Kansas. and relieved me of a, great deal of worry. This off my mind. the rest looks easy.
