At the Theatre.

If half of the theatrical offerings
taught as uplifting lessons as does
Frederic Thompson's 'Polly of the
Circus, = there would be less need of
sermons. The success of this admir-
able play, which is to be presented at
the Turner Theatre next Sunday eve
ming exactly as it was in New York
and Chicago, is instant and emph atic,
for ''Polly of the Circus" appeals as
strongly to the intelligent play-goer
as a drink of pure spring water to a
thirsty person. It tells a beautiful
story revealing the budding and bios
soming of love in the heart of a win
some little maid and the heart of a
strong, fearless Christian gentleman.
It tells in a simple manner how these
two, originally as far separated in
social and intellectual conditions as
the poles, were inevitably drawn to-
gether, despite the Mortified resistance
of narrow-minded bigots so often
found in this world of ours. The play
is delightfully."- enriched with fine char
acter drawing. It's not one part
story. Instead, there are at least ten
very strong roles that must be played
by very competent actors and actress
ses, and every one of them is admir-
ably played and portrayed. Miss Fay
Wallace, who plays the part of Polly,
has a part that is fitted for her, and as
the lovable, unframed little circus
rider, suddenly thrown amid the re-
fnements of g minister's home, striv-
ing nightly to be more worthy of the
friendship of the man she has grown
to almost worship, she is irresistible.
Her naive slang and quaint little ex-
pressions of surprise and gratitude;
her warm, affectionate nature; her
10y lty to old friends, and her sacri-
! fee Of self for her benefactor are por-
trayals of the highest artistic excel
lence. The close Of the first act with
the little circus rider, injured from her
fall, porting over her newly-found
wonders of the Bible story as she
nestles among the pillows of her bed,
forms beautiful picture, which Miss
Fay Wallace, who plays the role, does
not spoil by coming out of the charac-
ter during this scene to take the num-
erous curtain calls.
The play is excellently staged. One
Of the scenes shows circus in full
sway, with the trained ponies and hor-
ses, the clowns ard acrobats, bare
back riders and all the necessaries of
the white tops. Anothers shows a
miniature circus caravan winding its
| way off over the hills at night, with
Polly and the preacher standing in its
deserted ring, quoting aloud to each
other from the Book Of Ruth. There
is nothing that is not in keeping with
the standard set by Mr.. Thompson for
all his famous and successful plays.

American Banks Needed Abroad

Germany and England have chains of banks in foreign countries which afford important facilities to their compatriots interested in the foreign trade as well as to the native business interests in their respective spheres of activity
 The lack of such facilities repre- sents serious handicap to American export trade and the intercourse be- tween the foreign nations and Ameri- can commerce. In many of the most important territories, which by the mere reason of geographical position are within the natural scope of Amer ican export activity, every dollar that changes hands between Americans and their foreign connections yields a tribute to German and British banks American Industries.

FOOTWEAR CAUSE OF WOE
Popular Pump Is Rough on Silk Stockings, But Girls will
 Wear Them.

The bachelor maid twisted her pret- ty foot around and looked ruefully at the heel of her silk stocking, just above the top of her patent leather pump.
 What do l care about airships?" she exclaimed mournfully, "or wire less telegraph Improvements or deep sea navigation? What women most need is some kind of an invention that will keep pumps from cutting through stockings just above the heel. That would meet a real human need l paid $3 for those stockings and this is the second time I have worn them One pump has cut long gash, as you see, and it is useless to mend it. The same kind of a gash would be cut through the mending silk in a few hours
 Why not abandon the wearing of pumps? Oh, horrors, no! They are the most adorable footwear on earth. No sane woman would be willing to surrender them. l will wear cheaper stockings if l must, but give up pumps, never! Surely there must be enough igenuity in the whole world to rise to this demand. 1 believe a manufacturer who would devise some means, either on the pump or in the stockings, to obviate this difficulty would wax rich"

AMY OF THE CIRCUS"

Amy of the Circus" a decidedly interesting drama, was presented by the Fulton Stock Co.,, at the Capital theatre last night in frst-class style. The production will be the attraction at this theatre the balance of this week, with the usual matinees. It is one of the best plays that has been presented in Little Rock this season." Little Rock Democrat.
 Amy of the Circus" closely re- sembles in many particulars Polly of the Circus," a play that was an in- stantaneous success throughout the country. As presented at the Capital in different garb, the production has lost none of it's charm, but on the contrary appears to better advantage. The scenes are somewhat different, as are the lines and climaxic situations, but on the whole Amy at the Circus" is the best play and is really deserv- ing of capacity houses.
 The various members of the com pany are cast to excellent advantage. In the title role Miss Enid May Jack son, the emotional actress, is clever withal, and her work was keenly ap- preciated by all.
 Amy of the Circus" is in four acts The production is well staged, and while the first three acts are conventional, the last act, that of the exterior of a travelling circus, is de- serving of special mention.
 Amy of the Circus" will be played by this company at the Grand opera house Monday night, April g.

MAYOR BENTLEY, who has just as sumed control of Morrilton's govern ment, is wondering how the city is going to make both ends meet. In a staement rendered to the city council he shows that the income from taxes last year was only $3,344.44, while the city has contracted to eXpend $2,800 year for water, $1 800 year for lights and $500 a year for the marshal's salary, making a total of $5,200. The outstanding warrants of the city amount to $8,879.71. It will indeed be difficult for Mayor Bentley to make much progress to- ward extinguishing the debt and car rying on street work and other i'm provements with such a condition as that staring him in the face. The city of Conway is fortunate in that it has never been on a scrip basis, and it's warrants have always been as good as United States currency.

Two People at Least Who Failed to See Any Humor in the Sit

It was a train coming through southern Wisconsin. On board was one of those impromptu comedy crowds from the tall grass that hadn't any idea it was funny. One woman suddenly descended on her husband with the thrilling inquiry:
 Where is that umbrella of mine?"
 "I dunno" grow'ed the husband.
 Well, you had it last"
 Didn't neither"
 You did, too, and you've got to git busy findin' it. I bet it's up forred there where we was a-settin' before we come back hyer."

WE heard a great deal from certain
 Arkansas newspapers during the last
 campaign about the danger of Repub- licanism to the Democratic party in this state. Judging from the attitude of these papers which are continuing their harrangue against the men whom the Democratic party has se- lected as it's nominees, We are led to wonder whether they are Democratic or are allying themselves with the op- position. But these papers will reg ular' enough when the time comes agin for Democratic candidates to place their newspaper announcements.
