UNUSUAL HONOR FOR
 ISAAC FISHER
Only Negro to Speak in Chicago on Program With Representative Men and Woman From the United
 States, Europe and India.

Principal Isaac Fisher, of the State Branch Normal College of this city, has received an honor deserving more than passing notice. With the entire list of prominent men of his race from which to seelct, the Committee of One Hundred, composed of some of the most prominent white citizens of Chicago. having in charge the arrange ments for the One Hundredth Anni- versary of the birth and the FHt!eth of the death of Theodore Parker, in Florence, Italy, has selected the Pine Bluff negro to represent and speak for his race on the occasion.
 The significance of Fishers selec- tion is that he will be the only negro on program which extends through one whole week, beginning Sunday and on which will appear some of the most noted persons, in all lines of human endeavor in America and beyond seas.
 Concerning the event, the Chicago Record-Herald said, among other things: History is to repeat itself Taking advantage of the fact that Theodore Parker's birth and death were exactly a half-century apart, of- ficials of three great international and American organizations have arranged for the third week in November in Chicago, a memorial gathesng of rep resentative men and women from the United States, Europe, and India, who will do honor, from their various points of view, to the life and work of the great New Englander.''
 There is little question but that Fishers phenomenal record as an es- sayist last year was largely responsi- bic for his selection, because the com- mittee on Publicity for the anniyer- sary requested his photograph and a complete record of all the prize essays which he has written on nat,cnal questions.
 When Booker T. Washington was told that Fisher was to speak at this great gathering, he is said to have remarked to an individual who won- dered if the young negro would be able to rise to the occasion, INT. Fisher will deliver the goods ;

JEFF CHALLENGES
 JOHN |. SULLIVAN
But Not For n Fight-Wants Him to !. Prove His Statement to the Effect That Jeffries Laid Down to the
 Negro, Jack Johnson.

] Los Angeles, Nov. 10.-James J. Jef- fries, the erstwhile worlds champion,
 prize fighter, who showed conclsively his inability to "come back in the fight with the negro, Jack Johnson, has issued challenge to John L. Srl.
 livan. the famous old prize fighter who refused to fight a negro. No. MT. Jeffries simply challenges MT. Sulli- van to prove his statements to the ef- feet that he laid down in the fight with Johnson. In connection With this challenge Jeffries also comes forth with the strong statement that he was doped some time during the three days prior to the fight at Reno.
 This sudden announcement and def from him has resulted from the state- mont recently published crediting Abe Attell with saying the match was fixed which statement was quickly followed with one by John l.. Sulll- van with the same intent. Sullivan charges that the match was to oe a crooked one; that Johnson was to lay down to Jeffries, but that he s!:d- denly changed his mind within the last twenty-four hours preceding the meet. All of this has served to make MT. Jeffries angry. His shell of re- ticence has fallen from him like Eli jah's cloak, and he has spoken his thoughts.
 Never from the moment that l signed the articles in New York until I went into the ring at Reno was there any understanding between Johnson end myself that the fight was to be de. cided in any way except strictly upon it's merits. Any man who speaks to the contrary tells lie, and l chal- lenge John L. Sullivan to prove his statements, said Jeff.
 I trained the best l knew how, and I fought my best. I was beaten, and have kept pretty kuiet ever since. \ great deal has been said about my be- ing doped. You may now say fo- me that I am positive that I was doped for some time during the last three days that I spent at Monana Springs. This Is not the talk of squealer. have spent lot of money and am willing to spend lot more to land the guilty party. Whoever he or they vera. their tracks were covered up so thoroughly that it As the next thing 60 impossible to1rrove anything"

BUYING ORDERS
 WERE INCREASED
Weather Map Favorable Indicating Dry, Clear and Fairly Warm Weath. er-New Orleans Opened at a
 General Advance.

New Orleans, Nov. 11.-Cotton- Futures opened steady at an advance of 4 to 6 points on favorable cables. Opening: November, 14.54c, nomin- al; December, 14.57c, asked; Jan uary, 14.64c, March, 14.S4; May, 14.96c, July, 15.05c.
 Private accounts from Manchester were very bullish, stating that a big business was being done in cotton yarns and goods and that many mills were booked ahead until midsummer. After the call buying orders increased from both sides and scalpers took the long side for a turn. The weather clear and fairly warm weather over the cotton country, but it had no eff feet on the market. At the end of the first half hour prices were g to 10 points up.
 The market was supported through out the morning session by extremely bull;sh cables from Liverpool regard ing the Manchester market and the probable value of cotton before the end of the season. They were fol- lowed by a revised crop estimate of Il ,657, 1000 bales from a we'll known New York firm, which was generally considered very bullish.
 Prices gradually rose until the most active months were 10 to 12 points over yesterdays close.
 Longs took profits heavily on the rise, and at noon prices were only 3 to 6 points over yesterdays close.

Oyster Bay, N. Y.,-Nov. 11.-Oys- ter Bay vainly wonders today what has become of Colonel Roosevelt, who is in seclusion at Sagamore Hill. Not since his return from the Spanish American war 12 years ago has the colonel kept himself so secluded at his home and the village folk do not know what to make of it.
 The colonel has not even indulged in his favorite diversion of felling tree with an ax, which so delighted his visitors. It is said the colonel spends much of his time in his nb- rary.

criminals as their companions, until
 the next morning. They are haul ed into court and fined for being
 drunk. Judge Stewart is not who'll ly to blame for the present conditions.
 It is known that the police put the
 cases up to him and he is forced to do
 his duty as he sees 1t.
 Put Judge Stewart has considerable
 authority as the city police judge. He
 ought to dismiss every case of plain druhks brought before him. where the
 men are made to lie in the disease ti ecoing cells over night. In mary cases the families of the men fined need the money and are hungry, but as long as the police believe that the ely needs the revenue and their sal aries must be paid, there Is no thought or consideration for the women and children at home.
 Judge Stewart Is kind haarted man. A good city official, bat he would win the respect and confidence and plaudats of every citizen in Pine Bluff If he rebuked the methods being used by the police and which seem to meet the approval of the present City Council and other city officials
 The Graphic is newspaper that in. tends to publish the news, all the news of importance, but it has never made practice of publishing fincs assessed in police court or the l.ames of the unfortunates whose families suffer because the "city needs the m; ,ney." How often have you seen tho names of working men, and es- pecially the railroad employees in local paper, connected with the pro- ceedings of the police court. These men have no political influence, so to speak, and their names are gladly giv- en out at police headquarters for pub l'cation. But there are other names on the police docket, those of men of and influence. But their names are suppressed or are not giv- en out because 1t might humiliate them and their families.
 The Graphic does not intend to publish little items of such little im- portance. If it decides to do so i'll the future it will publish all of the names on the docket and not only those of the working man, with out influence.
 This paper believes that men who wilfully violate the law should be punished to its fullest. It believes in s~rAsYy cssNas upon .paen. .wha defy the police officers and who re- peatedly violate the law in other ways, but it does not approve of the present methods being used by the police in making their salaries and getting the city revenue.'

A SHAME AND DISGRACE.

xaCC TOT some years, the pOllcy al police headquarters has been to :'round up'' every man who was un- fortunate enough to become slightly intoxicated, and in almost every in- 0tRnce they have been kept in the filthy city jail over night and then fined in police court the next morning. The police officials have repeatedly boasted of their fine financial show ing, made each month, and upon this depends largely the size of the po- Hc department and guarantees their salaries. ..z | On yesterday morning Judge J. R. Stewart, in the police court, instead of finfng poor. friendless and pen niless man, who had been arrested the nieht before on a charge of being drunk and down, gave him a lecture und told him to 60 his way and sin no more. Other similar cases are eaid to have been recorded in the po- No court in recent months. but they lave been few and far between.
 Come months ago this paper advo- cated more liberal policy at police Aeadquarters. It suggested that men ssho were only charged with asunken- 1sss. be dismissed When they "sob- Ised up .a<6d especially after being
