SLAUGHTER OF GAME
 WORST IN HIST ORYY
Rec ent Flood Drove Deer From Low. lands and Pot Hunters Got ill
 Their Work.

Little Rock, Oct. l6.--J. l.. Parker, president of the Arkansas City Bank, says that the wilful slaughter of game in Desha county during the great flood last Spring was probably the worst in the history of the state, and affords one of the most striking ex- amples of the necessity of protection of our wild life
 Tine wilful slaughter of deer dur ing the great flood cannot be appre- alated by any one unfamiliar with the country of the Mississippi valley,,' says MT. Parker. ''To my mind when protection should have been most af- forded, it was given little considera- ton, as the deer that fled from the loWiands to places of safety were us ually met and welcomed by pot-hunt- CTS or so-called sportsmen with high powered rifles.
 ''At the time the water was highest, l thorough acquainted myself with the conditions that existed and some of the scenes witnessed were horri- flying in the extreme. The water was at it's highest from the first of April until about the fifteenth, and at this time it began to recede. At that stage of the water l was stationed along the M. II. & l.. k. R. at the extreme south end Of Phillips county, just north of the White River bridge. to which was conveyed by a small gasoline launch. from Arkansas City, where l live, a distance of sixty miles. In making this run Ey river l saw some parts of an old levee quite herd of deer, seven, as l remember, being fed by some of the levee guards stationd there. In the same place, on tho same ground, was bunch of hogs, which ate the young deer as they were born.
 Hundreds of deer were drowned, as many starved. and many were ruln1cSSly SlduSHIClCu do IlCy WCAS fleeing to places of safety. The deer killed were absolutely unfit for any thing, and the only benefit, should it be so called, was the sight of these poor creatures falling before the pot hunters rifle.
 "The killing of deer at this season of the year not only destroys those actually killed but many unborn. Our game laws are wholly inadequate tC afford protection necessary and under the existing statute the time is not far distant when there will be very lit tie game left ill the state.
 Il have lived in the Mississippi Val ley practically all my life. and have resided at Arkansas City for sever years. can sec that tue game is dis appearing rapidly think our game laws should be amended to cope Witi this situation. and above all we neet d state game warden, whose office shall be entirely eliminated from poll tics

A wire was also received from the Cincinnati jaouse which is mak ng a very large shipment of tents to the effect that she shipment had been sent fowwarG' and that it was belns closely tracel and would be de- livered in ample time.
 Every day ccmes fresh assurances that the attendance will be good and a large palt, o,f it will be from cut side the county as an energetic ad- 'vertlslng campaign has been conduct ed and every cty within a reasonable radius posted with brilliantly col ored bills. This work is being fol- lowed up by the Snyder Shows and it's effects cannot be discounted.
 A letter was received from farmer in Jefferson county near Youngs- GoWa yesterday in which the writer stated that he was going to send up some large stalks of cotton and also some good exhibits of early June corn and Mosbys prolific. Another farmer nearer this city has promised some fine bales of various grasses and hays. The prospects are now that the exhibits w:ll be net only interesting but very instructive to the stranger who may be attracted here during the week. The fact that pres pectors have been here the past three days from Minnesota Illinois and Tennessee indicates that Jefferson county is attracting attention agri- culturally
 The work of promoting the attend ance ito the fair will not be slackened for one minute till gah,e gates opn and the representative of the Snyder Shows who is here assisting in the work is doing some most excellent tllings in this connection. R. c. Elgin, the representative, is now en- gagged in getting out an illustrated premium list together with the list of amusement attractions which will be sent to the farmers of Jefferson and adjoining counties and keep them from fsrg etting for minute that the show and far will open at Pine Bluff for one week beginning October 28. The management proposes to give Pine Bluff the best advertising a city ever had through the medium of its far, not ony w'aile it is ill operation but for weeks afterwards, as an eff fort will be made to secure some 1 large p'sotcs and panoramic v'eWs or the grounds and exhibits which will be made up into booklets and sent out in special articles 10 the press | of the country. The Pine Bluff Fair l is the first one of such magnitude l that has ever been attempted wholly under tents and it's unqualified suc- cess will mean much for the city and adiacent country through the fayor- able publicity it will receive.

TITANIC WITHIN =. =. =.
SHORT DISTANCE OF
THE CALIFORNIAN
Testimony at Hearing in
London Similar to That
Adduced in America.

LONDON, May 1.-THE British Gov.
ernment's inquiry into the Titanic's dis
aster produced sensational developments
today when testimony was introduced to
show that the Allan line steamship Cali
fornian was within easy reach of the
great white Star liner when she plunged
to the bottom of the Atlantic.
Stanley Lord, master of the ship, told
In answer to questions Of court and
counsel az follows;
I'VE sailed for the United States April
), arriving at Boston on April 10. The
ship carried no passengers, but we had
lifeboats to accommodate 21S persons.
On Sunday, April "a, we encountered ice.
The Titanic was within wireless range
at that ime because a message which we
sent out was intercepted by that ship.
About 1890 on Sunday the ice became so
thick that we had to stop and reverse
the engines. About II o'clock. having
remembered the nearness Of the Titanic
i told the wireless operator to send her
message of warning and let her know
that we were surrounded by Ice. At the
time l did not know whether the I'll
tanic's operator had received the mes
sage or not as he flashed back the reply:
Keep out: ] am busy with Cape Race.
We could see the lights OF q vessel COM
ing up and stood at the rail until II 30
o'clock watching her approach. About
half-past II the lights showed that the
ship had stopped dead. The third officer
OF our ship tried to communicate with
her with the Morse lamp signal, but got
no reply.
AT 1910 o'clock, another OFFICER Of our
ship met me on deck and told me that
the ship whose lights we had been
watching. was in the same position
as she had been when she stopped at
about 1880 o'clock. The second officer
reported that he had seen white
rocket"
Sir Rufus Tsaacs. os the government
counsel. declared that II the third Of
ficer was right the ship must certainly
have been the Titanic. Witness said
there were a number OF ships in the
travel lane which might have carried
two lights.

B|SSON'S MADAM X
GIVEN PRODUCTION
BY POLL PLAYERS
Miss lzetta Jewel Wins New
Laurels in the Title
Role.

In mounting the ladder of theatrical
fame the Poll Players, in presenting
Alexandra Bisson's Madame x" have
scored another success, and one that is
or higher quality than their previous
productions. From drama to farce
comedy, and from farce comedy TO
emotional drama this company of popu-
lar players has proved beyond doubt
that 1t is equal to any emergency, and
extending tosthe Shakespearean plays
II needs be.
Bissons wonderful picture of the
beauties of a mothers love for her
child has been presented to Washing
ton playgoers before twice in English
and once in French, but 1t is safe to
say that the Poll Players equal, and
in many respects excel what ars sup
posed to be a higher grade Of pro-
ductions acted week in and week out
by travelling companies.
In the title role Miss Izetta Jewel
won new laurels and her portrayal of
the wife who had sinned was cast
off by her husband, and then drunk the
bitter dregs of her sin, exceeded all
expectations. From the prologue to the
final scene in the court Miss Jewell
Inc Wnere
she recognizes in the youthful lawyer,
who Is defending her OF murder her
son, was startling in it's effectiveness.
A. III. Van Buren,. as the senior Flor
lot. gave an excellent portrayal as did
Duncan Penwarden, in the character of
Laroque Mark Kent as Perrisard and
Billy Belts as Merival were we'll cast.
Robert lie Sueur was equal to the part
of Raymond Floriot, and his appeal to
the jury in behalf of his client was
effective.
Others of the company who were cap
able in their respective parts We're Miss
Gertrude Bondhill, as Helene; Miss
Marie Howe. as Rose; Miss Louise
Kent, as Marie; Mr. Rallo, as Noel:
Louis Haines, as Victor, and Mr. Van
Kinzie, as DR.. Chesnel.
Careful attention has been given to
the staging of the play, although the
waits between acts are too, long, and
careful attention has been given to
detail. Taken all in all the production
Of Madame X' will long be remem-
bered as an achievement by a stock
company.
