MISS ADAMS
IS Expected to Draw a Big
House in the City Of
Fairmont!

= z
Maude Adams win appear in Rost
lands much discussed poetic drama
"chantecler," at the Grand opera
house at FairmOnt o. February IL
The play Is an absorbing mixture d
interesting and picturesque novelty
with It's gigantic scenery and IAN.
tastic animal costumes, with ii.
PENETRATING satire ON the extraya.
lgance Of modern HE, with It's
powerful and obvious symbolism and
rich verse.
AS most everyone knows, the
scene Of this production is laid In d
barn yard, and the persons on the
stage are the fowls always found In
barn yards. following out their lit
tie destInies between the wheels Of a
cart and or Before a dog-knnel: In
such surroundings Chantecler
stands as the typical egoist
young, ardent, inexperienced who
imagines that the world can not
progress without him. AT the height
of his self-conhdence he falls in love
with a charmer, who, by catering to
his vanity, establishes her domina-
ton over him until she leads him to
betray his cherished Secret, his faith
that his. caH alone brings each
sun to the world. This
disclosure prepares the way for the.
shock OF a most painful disillusioa-
ment. Slowly he discovers that he
is not the idol of his universe, that
his light courage avails little against
the trained skill Of an enemy ana
that even without his call the sun
appears as usual. His experience
shakes his faith in himself, and in
his work. But at the end he per-
ceives that his chosen mission
though not so all-irnportant as he
thought it, is yet honorable and
,benefcient, and that, If he can not
make the sun rise, he may at least
arouse the sleeping world from its
slumbers.
Such is the theme in Which Ros-
tand, with unalyza51e charm, philos-
ophy and fantastic eloquence, ex-
presses in poetic form his wish for
the simple and genuine ins;moder
life. He has merged the truth into
the radiance of his cause. He has
created a symbolism that is an op-
vious platform on which, to- set
forth creed of great elevation, a
plot with sufficient action to hofdsal-
ways the interest and the suspense.
Therefore, the result is a superb
medium in which Miss Adams may
say finally what she had long been
struggling to express. say it wit.

TO ENCOURAGE lNTERURBANS
Little Rock Anxious for New Railroad
 to West and North.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Little Rock.-The Board of Trade transportation committee, with A. R Bragg, manager of the merchants freight bureau, presiding, held an i'm portant meeting, at which various nat ters relative to the trunk lines were considered. The Iron Mountain and Cotton Belt railroads were requested to inaugurate a joint sleeping car service between Little Rock and Nal den, Mo-, via Fair Oaks, Jonesboro and Paragould
 Resolutions were adopted requesting Gen. R. G. Shaver of Mena to take up with other citizens of that city the proposition of building from that place on the Kansas City Southern, 80 miles east of Hot Springs, opening up Hot Springs to the west, and that the pro- posed Little Rock and Hot Springs interurban be invited to a conference looking to joint traffic arrangements with a view to closer relations be- tween that section of the state and Little Rock.
 Charles K. Lincoln, chairman of the committee on building railroad from Little Rock direct north, submitted report explaining the cause of de- layed action to be due to work of fi- nancing local interurbans and desire to bring both propositions before the public at the same time. He assured the subscribers that the enterprise would be taken up as soon as possi- ble. Communications urging the building of the road were read from citizens Of a large number of North Arkansas towns, all pledging cash and real estate subscriptions.

OFFICE SEEKERS BUSY
There Are 2,ooo Postmasterships Tn
 Arkansas to Be Distributed.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Little Rock. - Already Democrats throughout Arkansas are bestirring themselves with a view to obtaining one of those federal offices, which for 16 years have been held without inter- ruption by Republicans.
 There are in Arkansas about 1000 postoffices. The salary list for the presidential office approximates $140,- GOO. These are the first, second and third class postmasterships. The sal. ary list for fourth class postoffices in Arkansas amounts to about $95,000 annually. President Taft, however, a few weeks before the election placed about 36,000 fourth class postoffices throughout the United States under the civil service. These offices pay from $10 to S1,000 a year. Under the present arrangement applicants for va cancies in fourth class postoffices in which the salary is $500 or more a year must take civil service examina- tionS.

No Stranners Allowed.

Frank H. Hitchcock, the postmaster general of the United States, takes the deepest interest in even the smallest details of the postal service. One eve ming he was at the Union station in Washington, when he decided to go into one of the railway mail-service cars to see how the mail matter was being handled. Being tall man and very athletic, he easily swung himself from the platform into the car, but he did not find it an easy matter to stay put A burly postal clerk grabbed him by the shoulders, propelled rim toward the side door, and practi- cally elected him to the platform be low.
 What do you mean by that?" ask, ed Hitchcock indignantly.
 q mean to keep you out of this car" replied the clerk roughly. That fellow Hitchcock has given us strict orders to keep all strangers out O. these cars. Popular Magazine,

SKIN DISEASE ON FACE

Barthell, Ky.-''I had a skin disease on my face, neck and hands that tor mented me all the time and when would get hot the places would burn so that l had to keep my face wet in cold water. It began as pimples and indeed it was disfguring, for it would get in spots on my face and hands as large as quarter of dollar. It would get into blisters sometimes and I sure did suffer- My face burned all the time. It was this way so bad for about six years and I tried everything that l could hear of, but nothing did any good.
 One day found the Cuticura Soap and Ointment advertised and ordered some at once. I would wash my face good with the Cuticura Soap and then apply the Cuticura Ointment and they have cured me. It would take half a tablet to tell all suffered in those six years. (Signed) Mrs. Della Hill, Jan. g., 1912.

HOTEL CLERK HELD UP
Robbery Perpetrated In Heart of Lit
 tie Rock Business District.

Little Rock.-Awakened from his slumbers on a bench in the lobby of the Grand Central hotel in the heart of the business district, H. F. Dyer, the night clerk looked into the mug gle of six-shooter in the hands of neatly dressed stranger, who com manded him to get behind the desk and hand out the money in the cash register. Dyer, only half awake, stop ped to rub his eyes, and was jabbed in the ribs with the gun, the robber holding the muzzle against the young mans side while he pushed him round the desk to the cash register. With the gun pressing steadily against him, Dyer hurried the operation of opening the register and handed out the con- tents, $10.50 in currency and silver.
 After receiving the money from the clerk, the robber turned and, hurried ly grabbed an old hunting coat from a hook on the wall, threw it over the young mans head, commanding him to keep his head under cover for 10 minutes.

INDICTED UNDER OLD LAW
Little Rock Merchants Selling Weap-
 ons First Ever Prosecuted.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Little Rock-Indictment were re- urned by the grand jury against sev- sral dealers in Little Rock for the vio- ation of the act which prohibits the vale of certain kinds of weapons, in- ':luding dirk or bowie knife, sword or spear cane, brass or metal knucls, or pistol of any kind, except such as are lsed in the army or navy of the Unit ed States. The penalty for the offense is fine of not less than $50 nor more than $200.

Fashion Note,

Lady Duff Gordon, at a tea at the Ritz-Carlton, praised the pannier skirt
 Everybody likes it, it is so grace full" she said, smiling. Everybody likes it except crusty old fellows"
 She turned to a crusty old fellow upon a Louis Seize chair beside her and continued:
 q know woman whose husband growled at her when she tried on a new pannier gown for him:
 "T I don't see why you wear those ridiculous big panniers.. You haven t got the hips to fill them

Newspapers and Literature.

All this over emphasis of the un- meaning surface is due to a confusion of newspaper and literary standards, to suggest an absence of red-blood; ; spinners and knitters in the sun; the 9 cent magazine crowd; this Is non sensical, of course. In It's elemental meaning literature is at least as stern a jab as journalism, albeit the inten- tion and function of the latter is mere ly to present things that happen, of the former to volatilize such material into lowering and potent meanings to strike the rock and raise spirit that Is life.
