FOOD Value Of chestnuts.

The truit Of the chestnut tree Is
nearly as valuable as bread and more
valuable than potatoes for dietetic
purposes, Two pounds OF chestnuts
contain 1lS grammes Of starch and
eight of fat
The annual production OF chestnuts
in France is over 3.0O0.OO quintals OF
220 pounds. That means food for
many workmen But the hide-tanners
keep the product froh the food-mar
ket by buying it in large quantities
for use in their business. Producers
make more profit by selling their
chestnuts for tanning than by dis
posing Of them for food. -Harper's

 The steamer James Lee arrived at ) D. m.

The Kate Adams arrived late Sunday night with 60 head of mules and a large consign- yesterday the steamer Harry Lee made special trip to Pattons Land ing, Ark, to bring into Memphis the last of Roach & Stansell's outfits at that place., and arrived in port about ? o'clock in the afternoon. The Fred Herold of the Lee Line is blowing down the river with 42 head of stock from Mound City and should arrive at noon today, while 30 mules and equipment were brought in over the Y. & M. V. from Cleveland, Miss.
 The Illinois Central will run a spe- cial train tonight via New Orleans to Bryan, Tex, where Roach & Stan sell have 1,000OOO cubic yards of le- wee work which has to be completed by October 15, and to finish on time all speed possible is necessary The Cotton Belt will run a special train of four coaches and a Pullman from Memphis to Bryan Wednesday morn ing, which will transport all the la Dor necessary for the Texas job
 The steamer Ferd Herold will leave tomorrow with 135 teams and large amount of camp outfit for Gale, H., where Roach & Stansell will build 330,0O0 cubic yards of levee for the state of Illinois.

TO REBUILD THE
 BIG ROUNDHOUSE
Pine Bluff and Western Building, Re. gently Burned, Wili Be Replaced
 Immediately in That City.

AS was unofficially announced in the columns of this paper some two weeks ago, the burned shops of the former Little Rock and Hot Springs Western line, now a part of the Iron Mountain route, will be rebuilt in this city, rumOrs to the contrary not
 withstanding. This announcement was officially made from men high up in railroad circles Saturday after noon, and will meet with the appro- val of all Hot Springs people,
 The plans for the rebuilding of the shops have already been made for the commencement of the work, and for the past week, the task of clearing the rubbish caused by the fire has been under way.
 At the time the shops were burned, report was circulated in railroad circles that in view of the fact that tho Hot Springs Western is now the direct property of the Iron Mountain, and in view of the proximity of the Barring Cross shops, the shops here would not be rebuilt
 The fact that several trains operat- ed on the Hot Springs Western and the Pine Bluff and Western do not enter Little Rock, and that this city is the terminus for the St. Louis Hot Springs special. makes necessary the maintenance of small shop here. railroad officials have declared. While all of the heavy work will be done at Barring Cross, many minor repairs on equipment which does not enter facility here than at Barring Cross.- Hot Springs News.

Night Hawk Fathers Fill Juvenile
Courts, Says This Judge

SEATTLE, March 21-"If faith
ers would stay at home nights
there would be only half as many
divorces, and only half as many
children in the juvenile courts"
says Judge A. w. Frater of the
King county court, Seattle.
Judge Frater has taken great
interest in the Juvenile court sys-
TEN, making a study of crime
among the up-growing generation.
Also he tries more divorce cases
than any other judge in the big
courthouse in Seattle's Profanity
Hill-so called because the law
yers find it so difficult to climb.
The other day, the case of a
physician and his divorced wife
was called to the attention of
Judge Frater. The divorce had
been granted two years before,
and the little daughter of the cou-
pie was the cause of dispute.
Judge Frater listened to the
evidence, then quietly took the lit
tie daughter into his chambers
and had a chat.
'Now, which do you like best,
your mamma or your papa?" he
inquired. A childish voice Hsped:

GIRL LEADS STRIKERS IN
FIGHT AGAINST Big TRUST

LOUISVILLE, KY, April 21.-
One girl, and not a very big girl
at that, accomplished what Wall
street, the legislature and govern
ment investigators failed to do,
when she forced the American To-
bacco Co. to shut two immense
stemmeries and practically close a
plug tobacco factory.
This girl Is Lulu Spaulding,
"the girl in blue" who led the
striking stemmers of Louisville.
She beat the trust to standstill
and landed blow at the financial
center of the big concern.
June 15 law imposing tax
of Q cents per pound on the man
ufacture of plug tobacco becomes
effective. The trust bent every eff
fort to manufacturers many plugs
as possible before June 15, but the
strike has blasted this hope. Not
many plugs are being made.
Lulu Spaulding lives with her
mother and sister-in-law, in a
West Louisville alley home. The
women have worked for years in
the stemmery. Miss Spaulding, u
frail. delicate girl of 81, plain and
unassuming, has a chin that de-
notes determination.
Miss Spaulding sees victory for
the cause she championed. She
is the leader of $500 striking men,
women and children, arrayesd
against the might of great trust
with millions behind It.
Like Joan dare she has led
her army. appointing lieutenants,
perfecting her organization and
carrying on her work uncouseled.
For IL years she worked In the
stemmery, being forced to leave
school to help support the family.
When she went to the plant
Lulu spaulding was a red-cheeked,
healthy child. Today her face
shows the mark of the dust-filled
rooms and her frame is no longer
robust. The tobacco trust has
taken its toll.
She says the strikers will win
because they represent right. "All
we ask is to be treated like human
beings" she declared vehementiy.

TELEPHONE co.
OWES CITY
$4,000

The Home Telephone company
has never paid the city a cent for
its percentage on the gross earn
ings, although it has been operat-
ing in this city two years. The
franchise requires it to pay one
per cent to the city. The amount
now would be about $1,979.64, ac-
cording to a letter sent to the
council by Controller Meads last
night.
Meads says repeated efforts
have been made to collect the
money, but the company would
never pay up.

DEFENSE

Ibrahim Wardani, charged with
the assassination of Premier
Pasha, began today.
The defense of Wardani Is

Boutros' death was not caused by
the bullet which wounded him,
but by the operation the physi-
clans performed trying to remove
the bullet.
