Fa'UTED lil FIRST CENTURY
t-0earac,le Colored Portraits or Weed Found by Prof. Flinders
 Pstrie in Egypt.

With the revived interest in art,
 sth ancient and modern, it is sur ,ri5'no that SO little attention has 5ecn paid 10 the recent exhibition by Prof. Flinders Petrie of some re- narkabe color portraits which he '.ecovercd in an Egyptian cemetery Tt Fayoum The cemetery dates from about the first century and its occupants were probably Romans. !h5 portraits which the professor has discovered are painted on thin cedar wood and were used as a cov- cring over the face of each mummi- led body. Professor Petrie consid- ITS that these are probably the ear iiest paintings know, and says that many of the portraits are of such Individuality and strength as to challenge comparison with the tech lic and imagination of modern agt-
 SIS. lhls IS particularly ref rk- 1bie from the fact that the bgsic material of the paints is booswaX, which must have been melted to re- aeiye the pigment, and then melted gain imemdiately before use. The eolors have been foua' 10 consist of mineral ochre, and haenatite, the
 lacks and charcoal, and the pinks md purples are madder. It is in- ieresting to note that several modern artists have attempted to use bees yaX in their pigments, bat the re- sults have been unsatisfactory, owing 70 'Ss tendency to either harden % sio@iy, which causes the colors to i0n. or too quickly, causing the
 ash to become clouded.

PROTECTING WILD ANtm>Le.

An important amendment to tho came laws which goes into effect th.s year is that prohibiting the sale of game at any time. While this will have no effect on the average hunter, 1t will put an end to practice which has had much to do with decreasing the supply of wild animals and birds in this state. The slaughter of game in order to supply the markets has in the past done much to aid in the extinction of our wild animals anl birds, and the elimination of this type of hunter will be most benei- cial.
 Each year the game laws are be- ing more strictly enforced, and the protectors have obtained a large number of convictions. The officials are no longer ready to overlook vio- lations of the law. but are making every effort to put stop to illegal hunting. And in this work they have the moral support of all good citizens of the state.-Schenectady Gazette.

JIMMY WARD GOES
 MILE A MINUTE AVIATOR AFTER HEARST $aO,0OO PRIZE MAKES GOOD DAYS
 RECORD ON HIS JOURNEY.
HE FLEW 1000 FEET
Showing From The Cold When He Makes Landing After 12O Ntle
 Trip From Patterson.

Callicoon. N Y., Sept. 14.-With bet ter fortune on the second day of his flight James J. Ward, who is attempt ing to fly from coast to coast for the $50,000 prize offered by William Ran- dolph Hearst placed 130 miles be- tween himself and New York City. According to the official figures of the train dispatches of the Erie Road, Ward began his flight at Patterson at 9:22 A. M., passed Suffern at 9:42 and handed at Southfield, 25 miles from his starting place, at 10:3O o'clock
 He started from Southfield at 11:2O
 land landed at Middleton at 11:5O o'clock. The last stage of his jour- ney today, covering 69 miles, from Middleton to Callicoon, began at 3:47 P. M. and ended on the Campus back of St. Joseph's college in Callicoon at 4:42 o'clock Ward was in the air two hours and thirty minutes today and actually covered 12O miles. His speed for the whole days flight is fraction over a mile for each minute he flew, He still has 4,362 miles to fly to complete the flight to Los An geles. Tomorrow he hopes to get as far as Naverly, which will equal his flight today and bring him within 160 miles of Buffalo. He hopes to arrive in Buffalo Saturday.
 Wards flight today is one of the most remarkable achievements in cross country flying that has ever been accomplished in America. The topography of the country he flew over is identical in everything but ac- tual elevation with the Alleghanies. It is picturesquely wild and rugged, offering no landing places for an aero- plane for many miles. From Middle ton to Callicoon, ward constantly cov- cred over gradually rising mountain ranges that varied in height from 200 to 800 feet.
 Having passed these interminable hills, Ward has securely qualified to fly over the Rockies if he chooses to take this route from Chicago. When he reaches Susquehanna tomorrow he will have passed over the worst part of his flight over New York state. Be- yond Susquehanna the country be- comes rolling with level fields at ire quent intervals. Ward flew at an altitude varying between 2,OO0 and 4,O0O feet in this region
 At middleton 10000 people had wait ed patiently since o'clock. When the machine finally swung into sight, soaring at an altitude of about 5000 feet, all the bells and horns in the city broke into pandemonium. With long, steep drive Ward came to the ground He was shaking with cold.
 Ward was driven to the Commercial Hotel where he lunched and later slept for an hour. His start from Mid- dleton was brilliant Whrd circled twice around the hospital for the in- sane. The physicians then requested him to give their patients an oppor- tunity to see the aeroplane. As soon as he left Middleton his machine be- gan to grind At Otisville it was so small that he could hardly be seen. It was here that he flew at he1ghth of 1000 feet. As he dropped into Hort Jer1+'s. he gradually swooped

The mammoth White Way parade
 witnessed by thousands of persons
 who lined every downtown street on which the procession was routed
 was the best ever It was without a doubt the greatest and most enthus- iastic effort ever made on the part of Pine Bluff business men for dis play of their Irrespective stocks. The people simply said that they were greatly pleased with the fine showing. The impressive floats or other en- tries were applauded by the populace of all walks of life when they cheer ed Justify as a passing wagon rep resenting artistic work and expense, went by Everybody watched for his fevorite and pointed out its advan- tages. The interest on the part of merchants. from the largest to the smallest, in having themselves rep resented in the parade was really re- markable. There was no waiting for the parade.
 It was scheduled to start promptly at 7:30 o'clock, and it did. It was concluded by breaking up' at the court house about an hour later. Be- fore the appointed time, however, the route of the parade was crowded.
 The great assemb age formed at Walnut street and West Barraque St. Mayor Jordan and the members of the city council headed the parade and rode down Barraque street to the court house, where mass of expec- tant citizens and visitors awaited to see the White Way, which is to make Pine Bluff famous, flashed on by ment.
 Mayor Jordan gracefully stepped from his automobile in front of the court house and amid cheering hum dreds mounted the steps, crowded with people and made his way to a small booth where he pressed a button, turn ing night into day on Pine Bluff streets. He turned to the vast crowd and waving his hand, quieted the ap- plause.
 In a brief but spirited welcome ad- dress Dr. Jordan spoke to the crowd, after which he resumed his leader ship of the parade and the magnifi- cent train began it's journey on one of the most elaborate White Way lanes in the south.
 The Old Confederate Veterans, not as they were mounted as of yore, but in automobiles decorated with Con- federate flags, followed. Next came the fire department. The first was in red entirely, the second was a great wagon of White and the last proved to be blue, thus carrying out the national colers. Mounted Police, in- c'uding the force to a nan, acted as r'arshalls of tae parado, with CA;es --,SL "a:nell IS grand marshall.

The flights made here yesterday surpassed anything of their kind ever given in this country. People who have witnessed some of the greatest exhibitions over the country declare that nothing they had ever seen com- pared with the Brindley flights here yesterday. The easiness in which the Columbus, Ohio, boy sailed through the air demonstrated that he is an 0xpert aviator and has perfect con- trnl over the Wright car.
 .- Although the committee contract J h f6r only five flights Louis Mitchell Ngas generous and gave eight. The
 st three were spectacular and set
 eople all of the city wild with en-
 usiasm. Even after many had gone |go their supper tables, thinking the Sst flight had been pulled off, they x&shed out again only to see an aero Yxane float gracefully over the city I'd speed away to it's starting point {ain.
 flights were scheduled for 3:30
