GET THE STEAM FERRY

It is gratifying to note that the Board of Trade has taken up the mat ter of securing a steam ferry fer handling traffic across the Arkansas river at this place, a suggestion made by the Graphic some days ago, and that the local commercial body yes- terday took initial steps looking to the purchase of modern river craft that can handle the traffic and han dle it as it should be handled Pine Bluff needs free bridge worse than anything else at this time, and just as bad if not worse than it needs new railroads But in the absence of suf- ficient funds and any plausible move ment that might result in securing bridge here, a steam ferry would an- swer temporarily if not permanently.
 The Graphic believes that Pine Bluff is one of the best towns, if not the best city of it's size in the United States. You hear people say Don't knock your home town,' The Graph is has never been accused of knock ing, but there is one thing certain and every business man and property owner in the city knows it, that un- less something is done to draw the trade from the north side of the river to Pine Bluff, where it geographically belongs, this city will cqetinue to suf- fer inestimable financial loss.
 Do you know that hundreds of coun- try merchants in little towns north of Pine Bluff have made thousands and thous- ands of dollars that should have gone into the pockets of Pine Bluff mer- chants? There are men on the north side of the river who are lending money to Pine Bluff today, just be- cause the Pine Bluff merchants have been sleeping for years and permit ting the trade of the northern section of this county and that in adjoining counties to go elsewhere. This trade can be brought to Pine Bluff with a free ferry, one that will insure prompt transportation across the Arkansas river. Hundreds, yes, thousands of bales of cotton, are taken to other cit ies and towns every year that would naturally come to this market were accommodations better along the riv- CT here. Farmers and cotton planters on the north side of the river prefer to trade and dispose of their products in Pine Bluff. They have repeatedly made this statement, but they do not AoASs 1ClAdlhlu6 SApOSSu u tue next of summer or dangerous wintry winds on the opposite side of the river for hours, waiting to be taken across on a rickety old ferry boat, which carries only one or two wagons at a time.
 A steam ferry, operated as it should be, could accommodate ten or twelve wagons and teams each trip and would bring them across the river as fast as they could drive up to the landings.
 There is not merchant in the city who would not gladly give s25 year toward the operation and maintain ance of steam ferry. There is noth- ing else that would be of more value to them and the city generally from business standpoint than a daily steam ferry service, especially dur ing the fall season.

putting out his cigarette against the
sole of his shoe. "All I'm certain OF
just now is that if there hadn't been
a wreck, by this time you'd be sitting
in an eight by ten cell, and feeling like
the rhyme for it."
But listen to this" l contended, as
he picked up his hat, "this fellow Sui
Ivan is fugitive, and he's lot more
likely to make advances to Bronson
than to us. We could have the case
continued, release Bronson on bail
and set watch on him."

necktie to dream over if you think it

Mrs Klopton's voice came drowsily
from the next room, punctuated by
yawn. "Oh, l forgot to tell you,'' she
called, with the suspicious lisp which
characterizes her at night, somebody
called up about noon, Mr. Lawrence.
1t was long distance, and he said he
would call again. The name was"-

CHAPTER XII.
The Gold BAD.


have always smiled at those cases
of spontaneous combustion which, like
fusing the component parts of a seid-
litz powder, unite two people in a bub-
bling ephermeral ecstasy. But sure
surely there is possible, with but a
single meeting, an attraction so great
a community of mind and interest so
strong, that between that first meet
ing and the next the bond may grow
into something stronger. This is es-
pecially true, 1 fancy, of people with
temperament, the modern substitute
for Imagination. 1t is a nice Ques-
ton whether lovers begin to love
when they are together, or when they
are apart
Not that followed any such line
of reasoning at the time. / would not
even admit my folly to myself. But
during the restless hours of that first
night after the accident, when my
back ached with lying on it, and any
other position was torture, found my
thoughts constantly going back to ALI
son West. / dropped into a doZe, to
dean of touching her fingers again
to comfort her, and awoke to find
had patted a teaspoonful of medicine
out of Mrs. Klopton's indignant hand.
What was it Mcknight had said about
making an egregious ass Of myself?
And that brought me back to Richey,
and 1 fancy I groaned. There is no
use expatiating on the friendship be-
tween two men who have gone to-
gether through college, have quar-
relied and made it up, fused together
over politics and debated creeds for
years; men don't need to be told, and
women cannot understand. Neverthe-
less, I groaned. If it had been any
one but Rich!

CURED. l touched the little gold bag
under the pillow.
Well" he said judicially, you've
always declared against the immature
ty and romantic nonsense of very
young women"
ct never said anything Of the sort,
/ retorted furiously.
"'There is more satisfaction to be
had out of good saddle horse! he
quoted me. more excitement out
of a polo pony, and as for the eternal
matrimonial chase, give me instead
good stubble, a fox, some decent dogs
and hunter, and I'll show you the
real joys of the chase!'"
For heavens sake, go down to the
telephone, you make my head ache,
I said savagely.
l hardly know what prompted me
to take out the gold purse and look
at it. 1t was an imbecile thing to do
call it impulse, sentimentality,
what you wish. 1 brought it out, one
eye on the door, for Mrs. Klopton has
a ready eye and a noiseless shoe. But
the house was quiet. Downstairs Nc
Knight was flirting with the telephone
central and there was an odor OF
boneset tea IN the air. I think Mrs.
Klopton was fascinated out of her
theories by the "boneset" in connec-
ton with the fractured arm.
Anyhow, held up the bag and look
ed at it. 1t must have been I'M
fastened, for the next instant there
was an avalanche on the snowfeld of
the counterpane-somem money, wisp
of handkerchief, tiny booklet with
thin leaves, covered with a powdery
substance-and a necklace. drew
myself up slowly and stared at the
necklace.

fairs that women are wearing now,
heavy pendant of gold chains and
carved canoes, swung from thin

necklace was broken: In three places
the links were pulled apart and the
canoes swung loose and partly de-
tached. But it was the supporting
chain that held my eye, and fascinated
with it's sinister suggestion. Three
inches of it had been snapped off, and
as well as / knew anything on earth,
knew that the bit of chain that the
amateur detective had found, blood
stain and all, belonged just there.
And there was no one could talk
to about it, no one to tell me how
hideously absurd it was, no one TO
give me slap and tell me there are
tons of fine gold chains made every
year, or to point out the long arm Of
