PREFERRED TO
 LEAVE THE COUNTRY
Modern Rallies is Given Choice Be- tween Sing Sing and His De-
 parture For Good.

New York, uly 17.-Banishment from the United States with the al- ternative of five years in Sing Sing was the sentence meted out today by Judge Dyke in the county court in Brooklyn to Lieutenant Karl Won Metz Meyer, son of Cristinia banker and former Kings guardsman, who confessed to burglarizing a score of fashionable houses in the fashionable Columbia Heights section of Brook lyn. Meyer chose to leave the coun- try and will sail this week for Nor way.
 In pronouncing sentence, Judge Dyke told the prisoner his polished ways were dangerous to the con- munity and that the public should not be burdened with his support in prison. Letters found in Meyers room proved he came to this country to marry an heiress.
 His conquest cost him several positions and he became modern Rallies, operating in high hat, opera coat and a silk mask.

 July 9 and 26, which are to be set aside and designated as Rat Killing Days"
 1 All kinds of weapons may be used in the killing-none bared-and any
 thing from a club to Calling gun

LEGAL AUTHORITY OUTSIDE CITY

Non-residents of the city, with one miles around the city proper, do not generally understand that the state law gives the Pine Bluff Board of Health authority to enforce the or dinance recently adopted by the City Council, compelling all property own CTS ithin one mile of the corporate limits to place box underneath sur face closets to guard against an eni- demic of courageous diseases.
 The ordinance was passed to make effective the resolution of the Board of Health and to prescribe punish ment for such violations. It also pro- gides that the excrement shall be dumped at the city dumping ground.
 The section of the state statute giv- ing the city authority to enforce the Ia win this case, follows:
 The city council shall have power to establish Board of Health, with Jurisdiction for one mile beyond the city limits and for quarantine pur- poses in cases of epidemic five miles i; to invest it with such poewrs and inn pose upon it such duties as shall be necessary to secure the city and the in habintants thereof from the evils of courageous and malignant and infec- tious diseases

the governorship has captured the oI- flee without opposition. Earle Brewer, the next governor, is in the city, and will remain here until Monday to at- tend the meeting of the committee, after which he will probably issue formal letter of thanks to the voters of the State. He was close second ln the campaign four years ago, being defeated in the second primary by l. F. Noel by a little more than 2,o00 votes.
 i The next important matter to be brought before the committee will De the preparation of the official ballot to be sent out to the various county executive committees. l AS applied to the senatorial contest the name of Hon. C. E. Alexander will appear first, followed by Senator Le- roy Percy and former Gov. J. K. Var daman.
 i The senatorial contest continues to be the all-absorbing feature of the campaign, all other contests being so completely in the background that 1t is doubtful whether a majority of the voters know who is running for the various other offices and will not be- come we'll acquainted with their names until they go to the polls two weeks hence.
 Three senatorial aspirants brought very strenuous week to close this afternoon, and will spend Sunday in this city attending sporting matches Although weather conditions during the week were not favorable, each ad- dressed large crowds at all points visited.
 From the three campaign bureaus lists of speakers who have been en- gagged to deliver addresses in behalf of their respective candidates during the next fortnight are being announc-. ed. It is estimated that at least 40 sneakers will be in he field during the closing tow weeks of the cam paign.

cally, and set about to remedy e9ils that were permitted to exist. That they have succeeded admirably is at tested by the popularity of the Y. M. c. A. now, with many of our best citi- zens and their boys aiding in it's yari- ous progressive and up to date move ments.
 Stich and varga were largely re- sponsible for the Improvements and recently when they retired voluntari- ly, they left the affairs there in fise shape for their successors-W. s. Blanton, general secretary, and c. D. Wilson, physical director.
 Although here only a few days these two men have already created an unusual interest in the Y. M. c. A. work and especially is this true of Mr Wilson's physical culture depart ment Boys, who are being taught to be men, strong men, have induced their fathers to become members of the Y. M c. A. and now many bus- ness men are taking advantage of the fine opportunities offered there for physical development. The new phy- sical director is doing some great work with the young boys, who are soon to be among Pine Bluffs young CT business men. They will have to be strong physically, to be strong mo rally and strong in the business world. They ought to receive the beneficial lessons ill physical culture that are being given daily at the To- cal Y. M. c. A.
 In addition to the regular program of physical culture, MT. Wilson is fea- turing special classes in the natator- ium. Many of the most prominent business men in the city are taking daily swims in the big pool and the natatorium is becoming so popular that the directors are arranging to install a heating apparatus to keep the water warm during the winter months, that the swimming lessons might continue through the cold sea- son. They are also planning to ar range special days for the ladies ard girls of the city, that they too, might enjoy the benefits of MT. Wilson's beneficial lessons in the art of swim ming, as suggested by the Graphic several weeks ago.
 The Y. M. c. A. has come back. It is doing some effective work now. The old sentiment that injured it b. cally for months has been eliminated and the officials hope to make it one of the best in the south Go see for yourself and then become member of the local "Y'. It means much to you and incidentally you will be aid ing a good cause.
