PRICE OF LIGHT
 SERVICE REDUCED Pine Bluff Company Makes Popular Announcement
 at Council Meeting.
AFTER THE CHICKENS
Ordinance Prohibiting Their Running at Large is Read-Street Car
 Rails Discussed.

At the regular monthly mee,ing of the City Council, held last night at the City Hall, a vote of thanks was rendered the Pine Bluff Company by that body when the official announce ment was made by it's officials that effective September 1, reduction of five per cent would be made for light service in all homes of the city, the reduction being from 20 to 15 cents per kilowatt. It means practically that those who are paying $4 for light service at this time will only have to pay $3 after September 1.
 The Council heard the Chicken Ordinance, prohibiting the running at large of chickens and ether poultry in this city, read once, it being re- ferred to it's place on the calendar on motion of Alderman Wolff.
 Alderman Ben Well won a point over the Mayor when he appealed from a ruling of the chief executive. while the street car ordinance, as to the quality of rail to be laid, was un- der discussion. Alderman Veil off, fered an amendment, requiring the street railway company to pave in- side the street car tracks and two feet on each side of the tracks on every paved street. He received no second to his amendment and Mayor Jordan ruled his amendment out of order Alderman Veil insisted on being heard and still the Mayor ob jected, resulting in Alderman Fox seconding a motion that Alderman Veil be heard After Alderman Veil had spoken, the Mayor again declar- ed the amendment out of order. AL derman Chestnut seconded the amendment and the alderman was sustained. The ordinance, which was generally objected to by the Council, was read twice and referred back to
 .t the ordinance committee.
 The ordinance gave the Pine Bluff Company the right to lay 56 pound rail on all unpaved streets, after be- ing taken up from the paved streets and replaced there with 70 pound Trail The aldermen were of the opinion that the officials of the street car company had agreed to place the Trail all over the city and because of the misunderstanding the ordin- ance was finally referred and a spec ial meeting of the Council will be held next Monday night to consider it again.
 The Council was asked for $500 to aid in maintaining the Play ground but it vosed only $200. This amount will doubtless be thankfully received by the Playground Associa. tion.

THROUGH AN UNKNOWN LAND
Adventurous Voyage Made by Young
Australians Travelling In .
Light Canoe.

A remarkable voyage was taken BY
four young Australians of Goulburn,
Victoria, recently, from Tolwong
Mine to Nowra. The young men
provided themselves with a canvas
canoe IA feet long and weighing 10o
pounds, which could accommodate
all four, as well as their provisions,
the whole outfit weighing about four
hundredweight. The party went to
Tolwong by lorry, being set down
at the top Of the aerial tramwGy at
the mine. The canoe and accesso-
ries had to be taken down the noun
tain side to the river, the task ne
cessitating a rest every so or 70
yards. For the first 80 miles only
waterholes and rapids we're encoun-
tered, but the next day the party
we're rewarded for their exertion by
stretch Of 112 miles Of water. The
scenery was magnifcent, but good
water for canoeing was not reached
till they came to Burrier, 26 miles
above Nowra. The journey was
then finished in one day. The voy-
ageurs immensely enjoyed the trip,
and described the shooting the rap
ids as a glorious sensation. Game
was plentiful en- route in the shape
Of wallabies, pigeons, fish and few
pheasants. Between Badgery'a
Crossing and Burrier the adventur-
lists were completely cut off from civ
iliLation.

Chinese BABIES.

The Chinese adore their children !;
family life is very close, and all the
numerous members assist in bring
ing up the little ones. The babies
are always in the arms or on the
back of mother, sister, father or
brother; and as soon as they can
walk they toddle absut with their
elders, their little bodies trussed up
in wadded clothes and their yellow
heads a varied pattern of small,
erect pigtails and shaven surfaces.
Until they are five or six years old
boys and girls are treated much
alike. They are always underfoot,
swarming on the streets and in the
cramped houses of the poor, play
ing softly together in the many
roomed sectional mansions and gar
den courtyards of the rich. Their
elders seem to enjoy having them
about, perhaps partly because they
are by instinct quieter than western
children, having been trained fol-
centuries to a code of reverence

Nature is a pretty thorough work.

are a case in point.
In the deep sea, below 200 faith
oms, where very little light from the
sun reaches the bottom, fishes and
shrimps are found with eyes of enor-
nous size. They require large lens
to collect what little light reaches
them, and as we go deeper, and even
side by side with the large-eyed
kinds, we find fishes and shrimps and
crab-like creatures with no eyes at

given up the attempt to see as bad

sea inhabitants are still struggling
by aid Of enormous lenses to get a
glimpse of the almost sightless world

sea fishes and crustaceans have no
trace of eyes at all others have what
were once eyes converted into fat,
plate-like structures, the use OF

Pathetic elimination Of Romance In
Pennsylvania Hospital fer
TubereuIosls.

Without hope of recovery, both
being incurable victims of the white
plague two patients in sanatori-
um at Morton, Pa, we're married
the other day. The romance, which
terminated in the ceremony, when
their cots were pulled close together
so that the dying man might placs
the ring on the finger of his dying
6ancee, began seven years ago, when
to all appearances a hale and hearty
man, the bridegroom was ordered to
Mount Airy. The physicians had
discovered the little germ in one
lung, which had spread until both
lungs are now nearly gone. Al
Mount Airy he met and fell in love
with a ruddy-complexioned, healthy
girl, who endeavored to nurse him
back to health. In nursing him she
contracted tuberculosis. She wilted
and faded into living skeleton, her
condition keeping pace with his. For
three years they have occupied ade
joining cots, each endeavoring to
cheer the other, and a few days ago,
just after terrible coughing spells,
they decided to, die as man and wife.
