MARKET TRADE
PICKING UP

Although the markets are still
hard up for fresh vegetables, there
is decided improvement in some
lines. The commission houses are
still well supplied with fruit and
a shipment of Japanese oranges,
ways favorites, has been received.
The fish market has shown a
great improvement also, and salm-
on trout and cod are to be had at
prices slightly increased over pre-
vious ones. This has helped to
relieve the deafness of the past
few days and as soon as the cold
weather is broken, brighter pros
poets are looked for.

FORT SMITH AFTER ASYLUM.

Little Rock, Nov. 1S.-At least three members of the state board of chali- ties will next Saturday spend the day in the vicinity of Fort Smith looking over the site for the branch state hos pital for the treatment of nervous dis eases, which they are offered there. Fort Smith is determined to get this branch institution, for which the legis- lature appropriated S200,000 to build and equip and has set the pace. The board has already passed a resolution requesting $100 ,000 in cash and 1000 acres of ground as bonus for the hos pital, and Fort Smith is willing to meet the demands of the board. The site there is said to be an ideal one, and within a mile of the city limits. Fort Smith is also making strong bid for one of the four agricultural schools

Ions day and to receive no pay for his work if he failed to secure the wa ter. It is possible that the commis- sioners will enter into contract of this character with some one.
 If it is found that artesian water cannot be secured, another possibility is the use of the Cadron Gap water shed, one mile north of Conway. Ac- cording to Prof. G. H. Burr, there are about 240 acres in this watershed, and the average annual rainfall would pro- vide theoretically nearly a million gal Ions of water per day. A dam could be constructed in the gap between the two hills and the elevation of the ar titiclal lake thus created would be Suffi- cient to give considerable gravity pressure, thus saving much of the eX- pense of pumping In order to use this watershed the entire property would have to be purchased and the road which runs through the gap would have to be changed.
 The board adjourned this morning subject to the call of the chairman, and in the meantime conferences will be had by the commissioners relative to the employment of an engineer.

MASONIC GRAND
 LODGE ADJ0URNS

Little Rock, Nov. 1S.-The grand lodge of Free and Accepted Masons closed last night with the installation of the new officers and the finishing of the reports of the various committees. The committee which had in charge the temperance question reported ia voring a rejection of even the minority stockholders of corporations which dealt in liquor CT permitted it to be sold on the place. This was accepted by the lodge only after the report had been changed so that the minority stockholders who opposed the sale of liquor by the corporation, would not te liable and could be admitted to membership. A vote by the raising of hands was unsuccessful in determin- ing the count, so a rising vote was taken, which resulted in almost a tie, but the resolution was adopted as amended.
 The resolution to have the candidate voted on at once for the first degree, and reported unfavorably by the com mittee, was rejected and the lodges will continue to vote for the candi- dates for the three degrees separate ly. No resolution was introduced to carry out the recommendation of Grand Master McCuloch for a meet ing every two years, and provide an endowment fund for the orphans home, so it will not be acted upon for another year at least.

PICKS HENDRIX
 10 WIN CAME

Coach Staples of the Hendrix foot ball squadris enthusiastic over what he believes to be a good chance to win the game with Henderson next Sat urday, which will probably carry with it the collegiate championship of the state This will without doubt be the biggest game ever seen here,' he said this morning, and probably the hardest fought l think the teams are evenly matched and I see no req son why Hendrix has not just as good a chance to win as Henderson. You can put me down as saying positively that the Philadelphia team will not outclasS us, even though they should defeat us. Our men average only about l32 pounds, and l understand Henderson is somewhat heavier. They may excel us in some positions, but I think it will be shown that we excel them in some positions. Our men are on edge for the big battle, barring the slight illness of Hanesworth, and every man on the team firmly believes Hen dirk will win. They will go into the game with that spirit and they will never give up the fight. All this talk about the game being a one-sided af- fair IS nonsense, and the wise guys who are predicting an easy victory for the visitors will have some explaining to do after the game" Coach Staples said that Hanesworths illness was not serious, but should he be kept out of the game, his position could easily be filled

GOVERNOR FAYORS BONDS
WOULD PERMIT STATE, COUN- TIES AND CITIES TO BOR-
 ROW MONEY.

A constitutional amendment author izing the state, county and city
 governments to issue bonds for the purpose of making improvements, pri-
 marily to provide better roads in the country districts and streets in the cities, is advocated by Gov. George w. Donaghey and will be recommended by him in his next message to the state Legislature, according to announce
 ment made yesterday by the governor when he was asked for his opinion of the recent interviews with municipal
 engineers relative to road and street
 improvement work in Arkansas, pub
 lished by the Gazette.
 For the past two weeks the Gazette has published a series of interviews with wel-known municipal engineers of other states who have been in the nished expert and unbiased opinions on the value of improvements thus far made in the state the need of more, the ability of the state to make those improvements insofar as immediate natural resources are concerned, and the proper manner in which to pro- ceed. The laws of the state requiring the organization of improvement dis tricts and forbdding bond issues by state, county or city have been criti- cised.
 Governor Donaehey, when asked for his opinion of these interviews, stated

FRAUENTHAL
 HEADS BOARD ORGANIZATION EFFECTED
WATERWORkS BOARD WILL SEE LECT ENGINEER AND BE-
 GIN WORK SOON.

By the election of Jo Frauenthal as chairman and G. w. A. Wilson as sec retary, the commissioners of the wa terworks improvement district of Conway perfected it's organization this morning. A meeting of the board, composed of Messrs. Frauenthal and Wilson and B. l.. Harton, was held in the law office of R. w. Robins this morning. MT. Frauenthal nominated MT Harton for chairman and Mir. Harton returned the compliment by nominating MT. Frauenthal, who re- ceived the votes of MT Harton and MT. Wilson. Mr. Wilson was then elected secretary.
 The commissioners decided to em- ploy a civil engineer to examine the sources of water in this section and recommend the one best suited to the cty's needs. Until this engineer has made a study of the proposition, of course nothing will be done toward making plans for the system, as the cost of securing the water will largely determine the extent to which mains can be laid in the city.
 If the expense of piping water from the Arkansas river proves too great for the financial limitations of the dis trict, it is probable that an effort will be made to secure artesian water from deep wells, provided that in the judg- ment of the engineer this is deemed advisable l..

that he believed some of these criti- cisms were just, He declared that he intended to take the matter up, give it much thought and in his message to the next legislature recommend the adoption of joint resolution provid- Ing for a constitutional amendment which would allow the state county or city to issue bonds with certain re- strictions-Little Rock Gazette.

Island, with tKing' Max Schlemmer
on board, on April 81. AS the Concord
did not enter the harbor last evening
it was impossible to learn whether or
not Max remained on the island. He
stated shortly before he left that he
might come back on the Concord. 1t
is probable, however that he stayed,
as he has certain obligations in his
lease to fulfill, among these being the
planting of number of cocoanut trees
every year. Max took about four thou
sand eocoanuts down with him on the
Concord. The Concord viii be put in
the regular run between here and the
other Islands. Eben Low, whose boat
she is, will endeavor to win the racing
laurels in the yacht race between here
and Kahului in her.
American Hawaiian Sailings.
The local agent of the American Ha-
waiian Steamship Company has issued
the following schedule of sailings of
steamers of that line From San Fran

viii sail on May q, and the Pleiades
on June 2. From Seattle and Tacoma
to Honolulu direct the Mexican will
sail On June 10 and the Missouriap on
June "a. The Virginian, which was
advertised to sail from Puget Sound,
has been Withdrawn.
Korea In This Morning.
The Pacific Mail Steamship Korea is
due here this morning from San Fran
cisco, bringing mail and passengers for
this port. The Korea will probably
sail this evening for the Orient at FIVE
O'Clock. She is supposed to have an
extra large load of passengers, good
many of whom will probably stop over.
Bringing Propeller Blade.
A new propeller blade for the Matson
steamer Lurline will arrive here on the
Korea this morning, the local agents
having cabled to the Coast for one as
soon as the news of the accident to
the Lurline at sea was wirelessed here
On account Of the work which will
have to be done on these repairs. the
Lurline will not sail from here for the
mainland until next Saturday after
noon. That vessel, as has already been
published, flung off blade from her
propeller when she was on her way
here from the Coast the last voyage
The accident was not serious in any
way, however, merely causing a little
delay in the arriving of the big steamer
at this port. The work of putting on
the new blade viii not take very much
time. The Lurline is now being tilted
on one side 50 that the work may be
easily done.
When she leaves here Saturday she
will have a large number of passengers
for the Coast as well as big shipment
of sugar and fresh fruit.

After having been laid up for some

Baxter Springs news. [volume] (Baxter Springs, Kan.) 1882-1919, 1909-03-04

From a Tuscaloosa, Ala, paper
we see that Mrs. Louise Kean, a
Baxter lady, is winning laurels
in the South. Miss Stella Searcy
Harris, one of Mrs. Kean's STU
dents, gave a reception one day
LAST week, and it was a grand
success. Speaking of Mrs. Kean
the Tuscaloosa paper says: The
entertainment provided for her
guests by Miss Harris was mus
ical program of the highest merit
rendered by Madam Louise Kean,
a singer of distinguished gifts and
cultivation, teaching in Birming-
ham, and whom she secured for
the occasion. Madam Kean, who
is a native Virginian, and ex-
tremely charming personally, is
delightful vocalist. She has
studied under the very best teaf \
ers and was with Madam Mattfr4s
da Marchesi, the famous Paris
teacher and the mother of Madam
Blanche Marchesi, for five years.
She has a lovely lyric soprano
which she handles with the
greatest dizziness. The program
was a varied one, and Madam
Kean sang in different languages
with the greatest ease. The 0c-
casion was a memorable one in
Tuscaloosa society.
