sOME, TIMELY QUOTATIONS
FROM A WELL KNOWN BOOK

ersoevcr the governor listeth.
Even SO the tongue is a little
member and boasteth great things.
Behold how great a matter little
fire lxindleth And the tongue IS
a fire. a world Of iniquity so is the
tongue among our members that 1T
defleth the whole body. and setteth
on fire the course of nature: and 1t
is set Oh fire of hell. For every
kind of beasts and Of birds and OF
serpents. and Of things in the sea,
is tanned and hath been tanned OF
mankind. But the tongue can no
man tame; it is an unruly evil full
of deadly poison. Herewith bless
we God even the Father, and there
with curse we men which are made
cut of the similitude of God.
Out of the same mouth proceed
eth blessing and cursing. My breth-
rem, these things ought not to be.
Doth fountain send forth at the
same place sweet water and bitter :?
Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear
olive berriesg Either a vine figs I?
SO can no fountain both yield salt
water and fresh.
Lord who shall abide in thy taber-
nacle? Who shall dwell in thy
holy hill?
He that backbiteth not with his
tongue nor docth evil to his neigh

government to provide plan for a
Lincoln memorial.
Congress has authorized the ex-
pendture Of S2.OOO.OOO for this
purpose and it is believed when
completed the memorial will satisfy
not only the popular ideal, which
demands grandeur and beauty, but
also the more instructed taste OF
those who require Of such pecu-
liar fitness and who realize the obi
cation to make it in every respect
worthy alike Of the nation and the
man.
The site, chosen by the Park
Commission and enthusiastically
approved by men capable of judg-
ing from all parts Of the country, is
along the Potomac in the Potomac
Park on the axis of the Capitol and
the Washington monument. The
report of the commission states
clearly their reasons for the selec-
tion and the necessity of placing
memorial Of so great a size and I'M
portance where its environment
could be specially designed to har
monte with it. and where the de-
sign need not be controlled or in
huenced by existing surroundings
was emphasized. Upon no other
possible site in the city can this be
so completely secured.
A desi gner to submit tentative
plans to the next Congress was Sc
cured. the choice falling upon Mr..
Henry Bacon, Of New York, who
accepted the appointment gladly,
Immediately laying aside all other
work and giving his time and
thought to the making Of this de-
sign. ...~..-.--., .-~.
1t IS believed by experts the re-
suit Of his work will prove accept
able to Congress, and that in the
near future work will be begun
upon a structure, the essentials of
which will correspond to his plan.
The statue Of Lincoln lin this de-
sign is placed at the rear of a
great rectangular hall. lighted
from above and unadorned. On the
walls Of marble will be inscribed at
opposite ends Lincoln s Gettysburg
speech and his second inaugural.
The exterior will be a rectangu-
lar windowless structure surround
ed by colonnade composed Of
thirty-six Doric columns represent
ing the States in the Union in Lin
coln S time-the Union which he
preserved. The colonnade with the
building it incloses will stand on a
stylobate composed Of thirteen
pIinths, typifying the thirteen orig
inal colonies
On the frieze over each column
will be carved in high relief
wreaths made Of pine and laurel
and to the right Of each Of these
will be cut the name Of State
while ON the attic, the extension OF
: the celia appearing above the cor.

representing the States in the

erected, which, presumably. will bt

His plea to the judge vas in vain and on the profane lan- guage charge he was fined $25 and for the other offense $5. When it came time for the city prisoners to go to their regular work on the street the self styled "Gyp the Blood" protested ttat he was too delicate for such la bor and resisted orally until the off cers tired of his line of stuff and for cibly put him in the city wagon and sent him on his way with the rest of the prisoners.

 TO RESUME ACTIVITY
SECRETARY SPAIIDING RETItR\S AND PLANS BIG PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN FOR PINE
 BLUFF,
The Success of Amendment No. 13 Means Much In a Business Way
 To Arkansas Cities.

H. G. Spaulding, secretary of the Fine Bluff Chamber of Commerce, has resumed his duties and has all ready begun to work out a number of problems which have been sub mitted to the organization in one form or the other during the past few weeks. Regular bi-monthly meetings of the board of trustees will be resumed at once, the first one being scheduled for Friday noon at the Hotel Jeffe1s0n A Plumber of important matters will come up for decisive action, after full discussion.
 Probably the most important mat ter which is now pending is tie completion of the arrangements for the agricultural tair and live stock show to be held in. this city October 2S to November ?. under the auspices of the Chamber of Commerce. The preliminary work is well along but there are number of matters Of pol icy in the management of the event to be thoroughly gone over by the officers.
 In view of many recent develop ments large amount of press matter will be prepared at once for publica- ton in the trade journals and news papers of the country and the cleo ton next Monday will have a decided bearing on the nature of some of the news stories to be written. Probably the most noteworthy of the amend ments from publicity standpoint is Amendment Nc. 1a, providing for the issuance of bonds by cities. Should this be adopted, and theer is reason to expect that it will, the ufliest publicits possible will be given it in tall the fiDancial and banking journals Dfsfhe country.

The letting of the Free Bridge contract, the contract for another railroad and an interur- ban line for the city, the improve ments by the local public service corporation and progress of num- cipal improvement all combine to make a story of prosperity and con- tinued progress which cannot be otherwise than interesting.
