STRIKE TIES UP
 WORK ON CAPITAL

Little Rock, July 9.-A gene. ral strike of all union workmen employed in the constr uction of the new state capitol was called yesterday morning and as a re suit between 100 and POO men employed on the building walked out at 10 o'clock. The contract orS claim that about 100 men struck, while at union labor headquarters last night it was claimed that about 200 men went out. The strike was caused by the fact that the union stonecut ters declined to handle the stone from Bedford Ind, which they claim was quarried by nonunion labor. Union men employed in other trades affiliated with the Stonecutters walked out in sym pathy.
 Practically all work on the new state capitol has been stopped. Only the bricklayers and plaster CTS remained at work yesterday afternoon, and at labor head quarters last night it was assert ed that the bricklayers ould not return to work this morning. It was further claimed at the same place that the plasterers would be unable to work if the other men were not at work.
 It is stated last night by req. presentatiye of the men out on strike that they will not return to work until the cotractors will use stone that is quarried by union labor. On the other hand the contractors declined to make any statement, but appeared to be indifferent. It is believed that Governor Donaghey and others interested in completion of the state capitol think that the strike will be settled within a week, and that the strikers will return to work by the end of that time.

Social Leaders Get a Shock

Pine Bluff, July S.-Not since a fake palmist who turned out to be crook and swindler, was ad- mitted to the homes of some of the best families of Pine Bluff and there welcomed as a social equal on accout of his pleasing ways and musical ability, has the local 400" sustained such a shock as through the arrest of C. w. Patrick a lumberman and the revelations which followed his incarceration in the local jail. Patrick, before his arrest in Hot Springs this week charged with beating his board bill in the Hotel Jefferson, had renewed ac- quaintances with the elite of the city and with woman who was accepted by his old friends as Mrs. Patrick, he was given much social attention, the pair being entertained in several exclusive Pine Bluff homes and becoming familiar figures in the speeding automobiles of prominent citizens who were on excellent terms with the man when he formerly travelled through here as a rep reSentatiVe of the Van Cleve Lumber Co. of St. Louis. But now the woman is under arrest charged with illegal cohabitation which charge is also against Pat rick in addition to charge of at tempting to beat his board bill.

ing the nunT7berS of useful birds and conseq uent Iesscning of the destruction to crops, fruit and foliage by insect pests. In addition to this multitudes would receive physical and moral ben etits through forming appreciation for the beauties of nature and taste for outdoor life.
 Fortunately, this movement is grow ing ra pidly. Boards of education are laying out wise and reasonable courses i'll nature study, not emitting Life OIrds. The normal training schools are now sending out all their teachers with some knowledge of these branches. Thousands Of teachers each summer are taking special courses in bird and general nature study in the summer schools. Our Connecticut Agricultural college hopes soon to send out an illus trated bulletin on bird study to every teacher in the state. Various towns and cities now appoint a supervisor of nature study, just as they do for music and drawing, which is the ideal plan.
 The study of our common wild birds in the public schools is no mere fad, but based upon soundest reason. Granting that every child ought to acquire an interest in nature and out door life, acquaintance with the birds is the best starting point for such an interest. Every child naturally de- lights in wild animals and in stories
