OQustterS Rights Increased

"Squatters" upon unsurveyed lands
within the national forests who have co.
cupisd their tracts continuously since
before the creation Of forest reserves
and aave complied with the homestead
law. have had their rights increased by
an order just issued by the secretary Of
agriculture. Such settlers can now ac-
1uire title. prior TO survey. to 160 acres.
The new order relates to the act Of
June IL, 1906, which permits the secre-
tary to list for settlement land within
the national forests which he finds
chiefly valuable for agriculture. The
object Of the order Is to provide for the
listing OF the full amount OF land the
occupant would receive II he exercised
his option Of awaiting the government
survey, irrespective of whether the en-.
tire area is cultivated, provided the
claim is bona fde and the land is not
more valuable for its timber than for
agriculture.
In cases where less than l60 acres
have been listed to q person who settled
upon the land before the creation Of the
forest, an additional area sufficient tc
complete the homestead entry Will be
allowed upon application.

Longing for the love of q man whose
affection apparently vanished with his
fortune, Mrs. Philip C~radlebsugh, wife Of
a former broker Of Goldfeld. attempted
to end her life the other day by shooting
herself with Q revolver in Los Angeles,
but it is said she will recover. Her hus-
band lost his fortune in the business
depression OF 1907. and found he could
not support bis l9-year-old wife and
would have difficulty in caring for him.

young woman to shift for herself. She
went to Los Angeles and became q
stenographer.

At the hearing OF the receivership mat
ter OF the State Bank and Trust Company
in Carson last week Attorney Horatio
Alling, who represents certain depositors
| Of the defunct banking company, asked
Receiver Wildes il he had been paying
the paper of Carson to print only one
side OF the case and cover up certain facts.
This Receiver Wildes denied. This ques-
| ton by Attorney Alling brought forth q
| storm OF protest from the attorneys
representing Wildes, coming as it did, on
top of other ~insinuating questions. and
caused quite a sensation in Carson. Both
the Carson papers deny the charge and
are quite angry over the question. The
attorneys for Wildes state that there will
be some sensational evidence concerning
the bank affair when the case is re.
opened.

The moving picture is now applied to educational purposes.
Chemical tests are now exhibited on the screen. There are films

is clearly illustrated. The most unsavory but educational is a him

ces with its feet, and even swinging a dumb-bell as large as the

Crazy Nevada Rivers

1t is astounding to read that Reese river in Nevada Is out OF its
banks, says Goodwins Weekly, for in the memories OF the few who
remain, who once bivouacked on its stormy banks, Reese river is
little more than a ribbon Of silver making a labored voyage through
an ocean Of sand, with a s~agebrush border, bearing here and there
a shrub and once in a while a wild currant bush, sent there to cheer
the birds and give them something sour to eat in the long August
days when the alkai comes up close to the surface and the craving
of animal life is for something sour, and the more acid the better
That Reese river has forsaken its ancient staid ways, and has gone
out of its banks is a wonder, and the Humboldt, that is like a
SQUAD, biggest when first Matched, it, too, is behaving shamefuly.
In a small but select circle, Nevada rivers have seemed to contract
the disease that smote the Seine two months ago.

CHAMPION GIRLS
 T0PLAY NORMAL

Local basketball fans are awaiting with much interest a game to be play ed here next Monday afternoon be- tween the girls of Springdale high school and the State Normal, which will occur on the Normal campus at 1 o'clock The Springdale girls have for the past two years been recognized as the strongest team in the state and they are out for another champion ship this year. If they defeat the Normal they will win the champicn- ship of both collegiate and secondary divisions, while they are practically sure of the secondary championship, even though they lose Coach Long streth said this morning the Normal will give the visitors hard fight for the game, which will probably be the best exhibition of the kind ever wit messed here.
 St. Mary's College of Little Rock vi, also play the Normal gills a re- turn game in this city next Saturday afternoon at 1 o'clock.

BURGLARS ENTER CATHOLIC CHURCH

One or more burglars last night enterd the Catholic church sometime between the close of services at 9 o'clock and o'clock this morning, and ransacked the building in an evi- dent search for money, although noth- ing of value was missing. Entrance was made through one of the win dows. The intruders invaded the sachistry of the church and pulled open all the drawers in the cabinet in which the priests vestments are kept. The theory is that the burglar supposed collection had been taken up at last nights meeting and the money left in the building.

LIGHT PLANT IS
 WORTH S2O,OOO
REPORT MADE TO COUNCIL
VALUE OF STREET LIGHTING IN 10 YEARS IS GIVEN
 AT 14,903.

That the present value of the city light plant is $20, ,223.67, and that the city has received during the past 10 years street lights to the value of IS14.903, on which there has been paid out of the city treasury only S5,300, l is the substance of financial state ment rendered to the new city council | last night by the board of the electric | light improvement district of Conway, which was read by Dr. G. D. Dicker- son, member of the board and also one of the new aldermen.
 Beginning with the purchase of the plant in January, 1901, which is plac- ed at S8,500, the permanent improve ments and extensions of the plant are shown. The largest items of perma- nent investment are the new engine, l dynamo, building and additional lots, which were purchased in 1906 and l 1907, at total cost of S6,500. The pole lines have grown from 16,180 feet when the plant was purchased to ,960 feet at present; the trans former capacity has increased from 910 lights to 2,500 light, while the dynamo and engine capacity have been nearly trebled.
 The report shows that in 1901 the plant maintained seven arc and 20 32 candle power incandescent street lights. Service was then given only from sunset to midnight Now all night service is given with 10 arc and 76 incandescent street lights. The board figures that these lights have l been worth S6 per month for ares and S125 for incandescents on the mid
 night schedule, and S9 per month for arc and $50 for incandescents on the all-night service. The first years street light service is valued at S804 and that for 1909 at $2,340, the total for the period being estimat- ed at S14 ,903. The council has paid to the light plant out of the city treas ury at various times, $500.
 According to the report there is due from private consumers $1,000, while the indebtedness of the plant amounts to $3,000.
 Dr. Dickerson stated that the boiler power at the plant was badly over loaded, forcing the plant to use high priced fuel, and that street lights should be put on separate circuit so that they could be switched off when not needed He said that the improve ment board had no money with which to make these improvements, and ask ed that appropriations be made by the council to repay the plant for the street light service rendered, so that the needed improvements could be made.
