WE MAY NOT GET
 THE FRANCHISE Argenta Business Men Op- posed to Losing Their
 Baseball Club.
LEAGUE HAS SOME SAY
Action of Pine Bluff Fans Causes Much Comment in Over.tke.
 River Town.

Argenta, Ark, May 1.-The press report from Pine Bluff to the edect that the Argenta franchies in the Ar kansas State League had been offered that city. that at a meeting last night arrangements were made for putting the park in shape and the prediction that Pine Bluff would be in the state league by May 20, caused con- siderable comment among the fans of Argenta this morning.
 While it has been known for some time that Pine Bluff desired organ ized baseball in fact ever since C. Strickland, owner of the Pine Bluff franchise, transferred the same to Alexandria, the citizens of that city realized they would not be given or ganized baseball unless they went be- hind the movement and put up the money necessary to maintain team The statement that the Argenta fran chise has been offered Pine Bluff is evidenly erroneous, as the stockhold- CTS or directors of that club have talk en no action whatever on the mat ter, and if such an offer has been made Pine Bluff, according to those behind the Argenta franchise, 1t has been made by someone not having au thority to do so.
 While the Argenta association is not on as firm a financial standing as it might be, the business men are opposed to letting that city drop out of the league, and it is thought they will not permit it to do so
 There is a chance of the Argenta association blowing up in the near future, and if this happens the fran chise will become the property of the league, and the representatives by a majority vote will decide to what city the franchise shall be transferred. As there are several cities which have asked to be considered as applicants cations are that there would be a warm contest over the matter, as some of he members of the league do not feel kindly towards Pine Bluff on account of it's failure to support the team last year and then refusing to do anything at the opening of the season this year for the good of base ball in the state.

til the followers of Mahamnet came, in
the memorable siege that opened in
planting on the dome of st. Sophia the
crescent in place of the cross in 1853.
The Turk won and the Turk kept.
When all is said that can be said
against Mahometism it must be admit
ted that it made unsurpassed fighters
in the days when swords rather than
gunpowder determined the issue of
battles.
By his religion the Turk is clean
ly, temperate, a total abstainer from
alcohol and fatalist. When his time
has come to die, and not before. he
will die according to the Koran. Since
the invention and use of gunpowder
he has not been so successful as a
soldier; he lacks the discipline and the
long range courage that go with mod
ern warfare. But in the early days he
was conqueror wherever he went.

Young millionaire by inheritance
Hazen Hyde has gotten himself into
a French prison, provided he returns
to Paris. He and his chauffer ran into
a public taxicab and injured passen-
ger. A young Vanderbilt has been
kept out of New York because he was
caught in a poker game by Jerome.
Hyde and Vanderbilt might organize
a society circle at home and abroad
where they would always be welcome.
Being shut out of New York is not
so bad, but being shut out of the social
heaven of Americas new rich is an
episode.
