MILLINERY
 OPENINGS,
Carlisle's Enterprising MilIiners At tracts Large Crowds al their
 Big Openings.

Friday and Saturday of last week was red letter days for the
 fair sex' of Central Arkansas. for it was on these days that both of Carlisle's enterprising Milliners gave their fall openings
 Great preparation ns had been made for the occasion and it was nnquestionably the greatest event of the kind ever witnessed in Central Arkansas. The big store of Nichols & Hatson was in array of decorations with palms, cut flowers and pot plants and certainly would have done credit to the largest firms in Little Rock or Memphis. Every shape and design of the Fisk hat was on display and large crowds of people were in attendance.
 The opening of Mrs. J.R. Carr, which was held on the same days was equally as great a success. Her popular establishment was tastefully decorated in autumn leaves and flowers, whice gave it most charming appearance The Gold Med al hats were there in large mum bers and designs, which made it all the more at tractive (to the ladies) and great crowds of people saw the grand display.
 The Carlisle Concert Band was in attendance and rendered many beautiful selections at both places and piano and vocal selections were rendered at Nichols & Hutsons.
 Many people from Little Rock, Lonoke, Hazen and the country surrounding Carlisle were in attendance and large sums of money was spent with these progressive firms, who are most deserving of success.

Light Plant Moved

The Carlisle Power and Flee ti'ic Co. have moved into their new quarters on West Third street, where they are most comfortably situated. Messrs. Allain X Crow. the enterprising proprietors. have not spared time or money in the great inn proyements they have made in this enterprise and Carlisle can now boast of the most modern light and power plant in the state.
 They inform us that they are getting orders every day for new lights and that many of their old customers are increasing the number they already have. This is as it should be, for these gentlemen have taken hold of an enterprise which was almost completely run down and built it up to most creditable one.

TORCH LAKE NEWS
HUBBELL LIGHTING SYSTEM
Will. BE IMPROVED SOON
Tungsten Lights Will Probably be In
stalled in Hubbell Upon the Con-
tract Basis-"Bandstand" Sidewalk
Will be Replaced by New Cement
Walks Soon.

Supt. \. w. Curry, in charge of the
Lake Linden plant for the Houghton
County Electric light company has
presented the village officials of Hub
bell with five year contracts, which he
had prepared TO govern the cost OF
electric lights. There are six arcs IN
stalled i'm the village at the present
time. each of which costs the village
$50 per year With the five year con-
tract as presented by Mr.. Curry the
village could save 81 per lamp each
year which would go quite way to-
ward meeting the cost of another lamp
i'm the town. Instead OF paying S54O
per year. the village would only have
to pay $49S.
Mr.. Curry also approached the
council with regard TO the series
Tungsten lamps, such as those in use
in all the other towns of the copper
country. They are adapted for use
wherever the villages do not care to
install costly arcs. a trial lamp has
been installed in Lake Linden Is CIV
ing excellent satisfaction.
When asked by one of the council
men if the Tungstens could not be
used on the regular electric line, Mr..
Curry said it would be impossible, but
should the village order a. number oi
them. they would arrange for "A sys-
TEN. one Of the councilmcn stated
Yesterday that the village should have
additional light. but in all probability
i'm the near future this matter would
he taken up. However the contracts
have been tabled.
one advantage of the Tungsten light
over the present arc lamp is that tho
Tungstens do not require any atten-
tlon whatever. There would be nc
trimming of lamps and the operator
in the station could readily ascertain
whether or not the lamps were DONG
efficient work and adjust the current
accordingly.
