Promote niStS

FROM the fact that the Chamber OF
Commerce has renamed It's two mem
bcrs OF the Promotion Committee, w.
A. Bowen and w. II. Iloogs, and the
others have done such satisfactory
work, 1t is more than likely that the
Merchants Association ut its meeting
tomorrow will re.appoint its two mem.
bers, X. II. Trent and G. Fred Bush,
The four will then get together and
probably rename J. A. Mclean.
The work accomplished during the
past year by all Of the present mem
bers has been entirely satisfactory to
the two leading commercial bodies
here, and there Is little prospect Of
any change. unless some of the mem.
bers decide to drop out. II Is under
stood they have all signihGd their vii.
lingness TO serve the interests. of the
public for another term IT rclppOlntel.

the county steam roller" said Mr..
Hogs. but hereafter our roller can
be secured for this purpose. The
traction engine is available for
plowing, heavy hauling, etc. The
pineapple farmer with 200 acres or
SO will find It more profitable to
have Us do his blowing than by
using horses, and We can plow up
20 acres a day in first-class style"
The roller and engine combination
rs certainly an acquisition to the

REMARKABLE ACT
 AT ELkS TnEATER
Woman. Bliudfolded, Describes Arti. cleS All Over the Theater With Amazing Rapidity-Talk of the Town.

Without a doubt the most remark able exhibition of mental telepathy ever seen in this city is that of the Ellises. which is one of the attrac- tions at the Elks Theater this week. The lady member of the team answer ed about two hundred questions last night and amazed hundreds of thea ter goers who crowded into the thea ter. She is blindfolded on the stage and as fast as Mir. Ellis touches ar ticles ill the audience she calls them off. describes them and even reads letters and figures on currency, watch charms, watcht $. knives and articles of every nature. The rapidity of her work is the remarkable part of her wonderful powers. Ruth Grey. Anna Eva Fay and others are not ill her class. Pine Bluffians are discussing the womans powers with much in terest and the cleyerness in which she goes through out supposed mind read ing is wonderful. The other acts continue to win, favor, but the Ellises are easily the headliners on the bill

POPULAR COUPLE
 IN ELOPEMENT
Contracting Parties Will Be Surpris. ed to Read the Announcement of Their Wedding in The Graphic This Morning-Woald Not Confirm It.

W. H/ Reynolds, relied clerk at the Pine Bluff Post Office, and Miss Rufie Norton, the pretty eighteen year old daughter of Mrs. Maggi, Norton. of No. 50s West Fourth avenue. were married last night by Reverend T. o. Owen, pastor of the Lakeside Metho- dist Church. It was tlfe intention of the happy yonng couple to keep the wedding secret, buf the elopement leaked out and although Deputy County Clerk Lindyay refused to tell anything Of .the~fssuance of the li- cense is was issued nevertheless. Reverend T. o. Owen would not af- firm or deny the ceremony and the mother of the bride stated that she was not informed of it.
 The license was secured Tuesday afternoon and MT. Reynolds took Miss Norton to the Elks Theater last night. After the theater they went to Rev erend Owens home, where the we'd ding occurred. Immediately after the ceremony they went to the brides home. Mrs. Reynolds went into the house as if nothing had happened and Mir. Reynolds went to his home sev- eral blocks away. When inquiry was made at the home of the brides mother the latter stated that her daughter was at home and that no wedding had occurred as far as she knew. Her daughter. when called to the phone, would neither affirm nor deny the report, evidently wishing to keep the matter from her relatives for the present. Mir Reynolds could not be reached over the phone and this announcement VII doubtless be an agreeable surprise to him When he reads it this morning.
 MT. Reynolds is an excellent young man and has many friends through out the city. Miss Norton is pretty and accomplished young lady and is greatly admired for her many charm ing qualities.

out Of consideration. English en-,
gineers, however, need not be pitied
as absence of headlights involves Ger.
tain advantages.
The colors Of signal and switch
lights in England are not affected by
the feeble signal-light on the engine
falling upon them. There is no daz-
zling or binding effect produced upon
the crew Of either train when two
trains pass. In this country, where
conditions are very different, the
problem Of proper track illumination
is one which has to be solved. The
increase of traffic and the high speed
of trains, the introduction of block
signals. the train-signal system, and
the presence of level crossings make
the solution Of the problem for Amer
ican railroads one in which all the
conditions must be fully considered
and adequately dealt with, and the re-
suit may have to be something in the
nature Of compromise.
In brief, we may say. some Of the
principal requirements of a locomotive
headlight are that the light from it
shall be powerful enough to illuminate
the track far enough ahead to permit
of an emergency stop; that the light
shall not be so brilliant as to cause
temporary blindness or bewilderment
in those upon whom it falls; that in
the matter of signal observance it
must not alter or modify the colors OF
the lesser lights which come into its
field, and that 1t shall be as effective
a form of light as can be devised for
foggy or snowy weather.
Among the various sources Of lights
available for headlights the use of
acetylene gas seems to have several
points which are worth considering.
A storage system of dissolved acety-
lene is now being used In locomotive
work by several railroads. with very
satisfactory results The acetylene
flame is much more powerful as a
source Of light than that from oil, and
its greater power extends the range OF
vision OF the engineer without seri.
ously inconveniencing those on train
moving in the opposite direction, and
without bewildering those who come
within the beam. The quality Of the
light. or, one may say its approxima-
tion to sunlight, is such that It does
not fade out or modify the colored
lights upon which 1t falls, and its fog
piercing qualities have brought 1t to
The attention of the maritime world,
and the production OF acetylene gas
by the process now In vogue has
brought its cost down to very satisfac-
'ory figures The whole headlight
question has aroused a great deal OF
interest in this country and in Canada,
Ind it is certain that the possibilities
# acetylene gas in this connection are
veil worthy of serious consideration.
