Not That Kind,

Apropos of examination time, Prof.

at a recent dinner some examination
stories.
Once, in a Bible lesson" he said,
Il repeated the text:
Arise and take the young chiil
and his mother and flee into Egypt
And then | showed the children a
large picture that illustrated the text
in bright colors.
The children studied this picture
eagerly. Then they all frowned: all
looked rather disappointed. Finally q

RAILROADS HAVE RIGHT TO AGREE ON RATES ORDERED
 THROUGH STATE AGENCY.
Judge Evans Hands Down an Import ant Decision in Suits Brought Under the Rector Antl-
 Trust Laws.

Under decision handed town by Circuit Judge Henry Evans yesterday ahe railroad commission of Arkansas IS given due recognition in the matter of authorizing and ordering passenger rates within the state of Arkansas.
 Suits had been brought against the Rock Island and the Iron Mountain and Hot Springs Western roads by Prosecuting Attorney Means and Judge Cobb which called for judg- ments in the sum of more than i4a- | million dollars for alleged violations of the antitrust laws.
 "A demurrer to the suits filed by the defense was yesterday passed upon by Judge Evans ana sustained and the cases thrown out of court The cases will now be taken to the su prcme court Of the state. for final judgment
 The roads operating between this city and Little Rock have uniform passenger rate, the one authorized by The rail.oad commission. and they TOO operate under uniform freight rates Because of this fact they were sued for violations of the antitrust law, which prevents any agreement to fix rates within or without the state of Arkansas.
 The court held that the law giving the railroad commission the authority to make freight and passenger rates repealed that part of the anti trust law which prevented railroads from working under the authority of the commission, even through an agree ment as to the rates ID be charged.
 It is generally believed that this de. oision will be upheld by the supreme court Of the state
