EASILY SET MATTER s1kAIoh1
Apology of "cub" Reporter Something
 of Masterpiece.

Whenever 1 see the name of Sena- tor Tillman fin print" said an old news paper man, "I am reminded of little incident that occurred several years ago when I was city editor of little paper in southern city.
 Late one night a South Carolina correspondent wired that he had failed to get a desired interview because the senator had taken train for Wash. ington, but that we might catch him ourselves when the train passed through our city. Hastily searching a time table, found that the train meE- toned was due in a few minutes. There being no other reporter at hand. seized Bud Lunkly, raw reporter fresh from the country, told him to meet this train at the station and get some sort of expression from the sen. ator on subject then of much impor- tance.
 Some time later Bud strolled calm ly in and informed me that after per sonal search of every car on the train he had failed to find Senator Till man.

An Arkansas Boost

From the handsome colored coVer'page portraying in a wreath the products of Arkan. sas, the spirit of the state ore. vails in the September issue of the National Magazine. The edi. tor, Joe Mitchell Chapple, mad e an extensive tour of the state with his associates, mingled with the people and has written an ac. count of The Awakening of Ar kansas, which is geography and history up.to- date. Nearly every county and city in the state was visited, and the story will do much to bring the attention of the people of the nation to the remarkable resources of Arkansas now being develop ed.
 Mr. Joe Mitchell Chapple writes a pictorial and personal story that gIows with the hospit. able courtesy which was extend. ed to him in the various places visited. This magazine will be preserved in every home in Ar kansas, and will be sent broad cast by her people to friends in other parts of the country who may not have conception of the wonderful strides toward devel- opment being made in this state Thousands of acres are being re- claimed and added to the fruitful arm-lands, the great mineral re. sources are yielding untold wealth, while the homes, schools and general development in Ar kansas are unsurpassed by any state in the Union in proportion to it's population.
 "Arkansas-A Reverie," by Opie Reed, is a literary classic in it's way, and fitting tribute from the former editor of the Arkansas Traveller" Mir. w. R. Lighton, who recently awoke en- thusiasm with his story, My Arkansas Farm, has written another article for this special mum Der.
 Altogether, the Nationals story of Arkansas, ref ting her splendid progress and immense opportunities for future jryelop- ment, should stir the pride and stimulate tho interest of every one within the state.

NEW HOURS

Professor A. II. Berlin, principal OF
the wilmington High School, this
morning said the new hours for the
pupils. which went into effect yester-
day, seemed satisfactory to the entire
student body, although the change re-
quires the pupils to be in school at
$50 in the morning. half an hour earlier
than formerly. There was no late
comers yesterday. To-day there were
a few, but as there are always some
pupils tardy every morning. the earlier
hour for attendance is not account
able
The new hour for luncheon. 11.SO to
1890 o'clock, is apparently satisfactory
to the pupils. This earlier time for
luncheon has permitted dismissal of
the school at 2.SO o'clock. as formerly
As IL was because of the later dis
missaI made necessary by the first
change that the pupils threatened a
strike, it is believed all ground for
dissatisfaction has been eliminated.
Professor Berlin said this morning
that should he learn that some of the
out-of-town pupils will be unable to
get TO the school by $50 o'clock be-
cause of train schedules. some provi-
sion will be made for them.

AeropIanss Could be Used in War.


WASHINGTON. April 2s-Paulhan's
successful flight from London TO Man
chester proves the value Of aeroplanes
in war according to the aeronautic ex-
perts of the War Department.
1T is indeed an extraordinary feat"
said Major George O. Squier, assistant
chief signal officer to-day. "but there
is no reason why it cannot be repeated
or improved on. 1t demonstrates most
successfully what might be expected Of
air crafts in connection with military
operations. The most striking feature
of the trip to my mind was the start
in the darkness and the landing at a
place unknown TO the operator, who
was able to hover about until he had
selected a suitable field If aeropIanes
can do that to what use may they not
be put during a military campaign.
Military operations could be observed
AT will, and for scouting work. the
aeroplane will be invaluable. This
achievement should be sufficient to con-
vince the most skeptical of the value
of air machines"
