One of the. most disastrous fires
that ever visited the state OF Ar
kansas occurred in Little Rock at Z
o'clock Tuesday morning.
A full block of business houses
on Main street was destroyed and
the loss is estimated at fully one

The fire started on the fifth f1ool
Of the Donaghey building, occupied

a peculiar premonition that he was about
to die. August Melzner. employed in a
local chain works and a stranger in the
city. arranged for his funeral two weeks
ago with Surrogate Samuel II. Bullock,
and then went to st. Francis Hospital.
where he died. He was buried yesterday
In Greenwood cemetery as he had di-
rected.
Melzner had but one friend in Trenton,
and he told him that he was ill and would
soon die This man. Harry Fox, advised
him to see the surrogate, and Melzner
called upon him, made his will, turned
over his bank book and asked that he be
given a respectable burial. He requested
that his grave be given perpetual care
and that tombstone he erected to mark
his la st resting place. He made Mr.. Bull
lock the executor of his estate and willed
the remainder of his money to Fox.
After completing those arrangements
Melzner went to the hospital and. al
though he did not appear seriously i'll,
his nervous condition aggravated his in
ternal trouble and m operation became
necessary. He died a few days later.

DEER TAKES RIVER TRIP
ON ICE FL0E IN HUDSON
Big Black Buck Fights Off an Eagle
That Repeatedly Swoops
Down.

NEW YORK, February 9.-Thousands
along the east shore of the Hudson river
were attracted yesterday by the voyage
of a deer on foe of ice.
The deer, a large black buck, was first
seen below Croton early in the afternoon.
Then it was on an ice foe about ten feet
square, and stood erect, smiling the air
The tide was running out, the deer was
floating toward New York.
Several men in rowboat started out
to catch the animal, but ice blocked their
passage. They were under the impress
sion it had escaped from an estate fur
Their up the Hudson.
The deer was not seen by the people of
Tarrytown until it had passed there and
the tide had turned, and 1t was again on
its way up the river. 1t was last seen
Just before dark, headed for Croton.
On the up trip the deer, evidently weak
was lying down. JUST before the tide
turned an eagle caught sight OF 1t and
lowered over the ice foe for some time
When the eagle would swoop down the
deer would rise, fight it off and then rest
until the eagle made another attack.

college has been prosperous from the be-
ginning. A large proportion Of the ex-
penses were met by the parents, they
were so eager to have their girls educated.
The latest report from the school shows
school and PAT in the lower departments,
making ISL in all. Some of the grad
yates who have had post-gradu
courses in other institutions are en-
ployed as teachers. AS result OF its
influence and the desire Of the people for
more extended education for their
daughters, flourishing girls schools have
sprung UP in various parts OF the prov
ince, some of these reaching the high
school grade. These schools are for the
most part supported by the people them
selves, but the teachers are provided
from the American College.
The boys college has followed prac-
tically the same course as other Amer
lean colleges in the Turkish empire, ex-
cept that the number of students has been
unusually large and almost wholly from
the Armenian race. There have been
few Syrian students and some other
races are represented, but great ma
jority are Armenians.
The total number OF students In re
institution has sometimes passed 1,OOO.
and the college department alone has
usually stood at about 200, including men
and women. Seven years ago "a per
cent of the students in the college came
from inside a radius of fifteen miles i'm
mediately adjacent to Harpoot. But dur
ing the last year Sc per cent have come
from outside that radius.
In the meantime the stimulus of the
college has caused other important
schools to grow up in the vicinity, which
have relieved the pressure upon the col
lege In this respect, allowing 1t to take
more students from abroad.

Membership of Exclusive

The Washington Stock Exchange is
planning to give a dinner to ihe bank
presidents Of the city, who are not

To this end committee has been
appointed, consisting of William y.

Trust Company; Allen E. Walker, Sec
retary; James NJ. Green, treasurer. and
Benjamin Woodruff, president of the

The date of the dinner has not been
decided, but will be in the near future.
1t Is more than probable that the
engagement of permanent quarters for
the Stock Exchange, the District Bank
ers' Associa ton, and the Washington
Clearing House may be discussed at
that time. The Bankers Association
has no permanent home, and ii nuri-

IMPERIAL THEATER
THROWS OPEN ITS
DOORS TO PUBLIC
Comfort Assured, Latest in
Vaudeville Promised to
Theatergoers.

The Imperial Theater, washington's
newest addition to it's playhouses, opens
its doors to the public tonight at s:15
o'clock. when the first performance will
be given. The Imperial Theater is a
local enterprise, and stands Dor the
spirit of advancement in the National
Capital. This Is evident in many in
stances, as several features, new to the
playhouses of the city, have been inau-
gurated in this one.
It's exterior appearance places the
Imperial on a level with any house in
the city, while it's interior decorations
are equally up to the standard OF the
best theaters.
The bun and brown color scheme has
been carried out even in the chairs. The
asbestos curtain is a feature OF the
house, and Is one Of the most preten-
tious of its kind In this city.
Special attention has been given to
the comfort of the patrons, evident by
supplied toward this end. One par
ticular feature in this Is the cozy and
attractive rendezvous at the bend OF
each of the main stairways leading TO
prove attractive. This drops down
from the balcony floor, and is ar
ranged in a series Of boxes which gives
as the stage.

house to have the stage of the mos
modern character, and consequently
novelty and special acts can be staged
In the best possible manner, and any
ordinary productions can be staged as
well.- There Is full equipment oi

Last evening an informal opening was
held at the theater for the stock
holders and their fagilies. and the
theater was entirely illuminated for Tho
first time. The Imperial Tneater Or.
chestra, under the direction of John n
Pistorio, rendered a musical program
Much interest was manifested in the
house, and the general opinion wa
that the Imperial Is as artistic anC
modern a showhouse as can be found
and Is worthy of the success which
already seems assured.
