President of School Board Presented
With Silver Seryices-Class
HOnOrs to Be Omitted.

Seventeen young ladies', clad in
dainty lingerie and clasping clusters
of flowers, graduated from the Pine
Bluff High School last night with
appropriate exercises held in the au-
ditorium of the school. Sandwiched
between the bit of feIninity were six
youn men, two of whom, for the first
time in the histry of the school, car
ried away the class honors this
year. The exercises brought to an
end the regular term of the public
schools.
The exercises were highly enter
tanning and instructive and delighted
the large audience which filled the
auditorium to the doors. The pro-
gram was interspersed by musical
numbers and brief addresses in which
Col. S. M. Taylor, Hon. w. F. Cole
man and DR.. Junius Jordan, super
intendent of the public schools, were
prominent. The appearance of each
of the graduates was the signal tor
liberal applause The audience was
principally made up of friends and
relatives of those graduating.
Following the processional by Prof.
M. D. Mcneil and an invocation Ivy
Rev w. F. Evans, pastor of the Lake
side Methodist church, the ihgogram
was formally opened by DR.. Jordan
who introduced the speakers, essayist
and others, and who acted as master
of ceremonies.
The stage was simply decorated
with ferns. Little Ella Hum Howell,
the class mascot, who led the way
for the graduates to the stage, was
clad in dainty college cap and gown
and carried sheep skin. The
graduates entered the hall while Prof.
Mcneil played march OF his own
composition. In the background were
all the members of the Pine Bluff
School Board and the High School
faculty.
The salutation by Gordlons Freeman
was most attractively said. He con-
Quoted himself with perfect ease and
his remarks were well chosen and es-
pecially appropriate for the occasion.
He declared that it was not a fare
we'll but night of welcome and
congratulations. The class orator,
Ernest Whitelaw, also appeared to
fine advantage and his Grafton was
enthusiastically applauded. The class
song Aollowed and was well render
ed.
Miss Emma Wilbournt, the essayist
displayed unusual talent in present
ing her essay, "The Passing Show"
She charming entertained the audi
erce with quaint and humorous Illus
trations and her reading was over
flowing with many delightful refer
ences to accomplishments of the
people in this up to date age. The
instrumental selection, F'Valse Cap
rice by Miss Elizabeth Brown, was
one of the most delightful numbers
on the program and was excellently
executed.
Melbourne McCain's valedictory, his
farewell to his class mates was
characterized by that same brilliancy

Tacoma just kept hammering the
ball over the fence all the same.

was hovering around II cents pound,

lake copper selling at the latter figure.
The iron and steel business IL still
dragging, but is nevertheless not as gen.
orally depressed as formerly, and the
statement Of untitled orders Of the Steel
Corporation given out after the close OF
business hours on Saturday showed de-
crease for the month of May of but
l06,00e tons, whereas a decrease Of two
and half times that amount had been
looked for The conclusion In this re-
spect still holds as firmly as ever that
as miscellaneous business over the
country is going to improve the iron 'and
steel trade will improve too.
The investigation into the affairs OF the
United States Steel Corporation by the
Stanley committee is a sort OF pin-prick-
ing that would not be noticed under other
circumstances-that is to say, II the steel
trade was just now in a busy and -four
ishing condition. This investigating COM
mittee that Is at work is one of eleven
other investigating committees which have
been appointed by a Democratic major
ity IN the House OF Representatives with
the idea Of making as much political
capital as possible for use In the next
Presidential campaign.
Meanwhile in the stock market the
greatest ACTIVITY Tor the time being Is
in the railroad stocks, particularly in
the high-priced shares, and this is only
natural for manifold reasons. Invest
ment which for months has concerned
itself with bonds is now flowing into the
better sort OF railroad stocks and busy
ing itself, as is inevitable, with the great
railway properties of the West and
Northwest in which liquidation was so
insistent last year and whose business
prospects, based upon the promise of
abundant crops, are now SO excellent.

NEWS OF WALL STREET
Banks Report Conditions Satisfactory-Steel Inter.
ests Not Alarmed by Probe of
Stanley Committee.

New York, June 11.-There were really
no particular developments In the finan-
ciaI world last week, except that busi-
ness sentiment over the country was
plainly more cheerful and that the al
ready splendid crop prospect was i'm
proved 1t is probably the case that
whatever Improvement In business is
noted is more in spirit and In sentiment
than in actual results thus far, and this
IL undoubtedly due to the effect upon
the minds of business men OF increased
reflection over the beneficial character Of
the decisions Of the Supreme Court in
the antitrust cases.
( The head of one of the three largest
banks in the city said last week that It
seemed to him business was about 10
ger cent better at the moment than II
was the day before the Supreme Court
decisions were rendered. BY this he did
not mean that bank clearings had in
creased much or that new orders for
manufactured goods had greatly en-
larged, but that to the extent described
the whole business world was feeling the
impetus os announcement and new life
II must be said that this remark re-
ceives general corroboration from most
people in a position TO speak intelli-
gently.
There are many critics who think that
the copper trade Is now more of a
barometer Of general business than iron
and steel is, and II they are right in
their view hopeful auguries must be
drawn from the course Of events in this
direction. The last report OF the Copper
Producers Association shows that al
though copper production has increased.

greater ratio, so that the present sur

Mr.. Garner sat erect. "WhatH' he cried,

Miss Mossley stood up also. IF you ap-

said; then, with q sob: "Oh! why have
