GIVEN A SUDDEN JOLT
Alderman NichOl Interrupted Read. ing of Natural Gas Ordinance
 at Meeting Last Night.

When a MT. Mcintyre, representing H Fl. Wright X Co.,. of Brockton, H., appeared before the Pine Bluff city council last night and asked for d twenty-year franchise to lay and con struct pipes, mains, conduits, tubing and other necessary appliance ill the streets and alleys of this city for the purpose of delivering and distribut- ing natural gas to local consumers Alderman William Nichol, of the Sec ond ward and other members of that body strenuously objected until they were shown" that the promot- CTS meant business
 Soon after City Clerk Lee began reading the ordinance, which was the first intimation of the purpose of the promoters. Alderman Nichol inter- rupted him and was recognized by Mayor Toney. He said that no proDo- sition of any kind had been submit ted to the council for natural gas privileges Or plant here and that un- less the matter was brought LID in a business like manner, he was flatly opposed to such procedure Alder man NichOl declared that the council had something else to occupy it's time besides granting franchises to parties for financial gain'
 Mayor Toney stated that MT. Me- lntyre was present and would be heard if he cared to address the council. Mir. Mcintyre, who says he is from Terre Haute, Ind, took the floor and stated that it was the aim Of the company he represented to secure market for natural gas and then to dig for it. He offered no ex- planation of the purposes of his con- cern, other than to say that they in- tended to pipe the gas from a find" Ill this vicinity. He only asked for chance to sell and that it would be forthcoming from wells they would dig. His company, he said, proposes to spend from $50,OOO to $75,OOO in this section in experimenting. Its wildcat proposition" said the speaker. He argued that other cities had granted similar franchises and cited the recent franchise which was granted the Busch-Everett syndicate In New Orleans. He expressed him. self as being confident that the city council did not wish to run away capital, but if the franchise was not granted he and his concern would depart from the city In as good hum- or as they came.
 Mr. Mcintyre urged the council to hear the ordinance and then make it's comment. Alderman Gabe Meyer said that he had read the ordinance; that it was good one, but that he pre- ferred to hear a proposition from the promoters.
 Alderman A. C. Jordan said that he believed the promoters should be giv- en some consideration; that the mat ter should not be disposed of hastily. He made motion that the ordinance be referred to the ordinance commit tee, to confer with the representa- tives of Wright & Go. and that it be considered at the next meeting of the council. This was perfectly satisfac- tory to Mir Mcintyre, he said, and the motion carried.

Mrs. Taft judging from the "boy
 party" episode in Washington, seems to be unduIy impressed with her SO cial importance and the pride of po- sition. Her career as first lady of the land does not promise to make her as dear to the hearts of the "com- mon Lerd' as her predecessor, Mrs. Roosevelt, Or Mrs. Cleveland. She could learn much by little reflection upon their tact and unassuming dis nity and in time might be able to take the pedestal left by them unoccupis |.
