(By CLIO HARPER)

Little Rock, Feb. 12-With half of the siXty-day session of the Iegisla- ture gone, the people have chance to make comparisons with this and other sessions when the length of the term was measured only by the ability of the economists to prevent extensions.
 The end of the fourth week wit messed the Introduction of 291 bills in the house, and 156 in the senate. The great majority of these bills are To- cal in their nature, and al efforts to curb this species of legislation has so far proven unavailing. There are members ayowedly elected on local issues, and as practically every mem Der has one or more ,oe l,~e"Sures to put through, there is rarely all, op- position to local bills. The author, who is supposed to be familiar with the circumstances, is supposed to bear all the responsibility.
 There have been notable diverg- ences from this rule, as in the case of the Pope and the Independence coun- ty salary bills. The members from the counties were themselves divided, and both bills were defeated by a mar TOW margin.
 But four-wire fence laws, depot acts, school district boundary bills, and such like, go through on the more statement ly the author that it is a good bill and my people want it, The time given to such bills is the time given to reading the bill and calling the roll.
 The great mass of bills introduced has been thinned out considerably by the passage of many lo< al measures, and all are advanced to second read

New York ever taken by anybody
was INDUCED in few days ago by
man who has lived since 1905 in
New Jersey to avoid paying alimony.
He went out for an automobile ride
with couple of friends, and for
some foolish reason or other they
visited saloon in the neighborhood
where the alimony-dodger had once
lived with his wife, and where she
still resides with their son, youth
of Is. The boy happened to observe
his pop, for whom he has no use,
and trailed into the saloon. The sa-'
loonkeeper also recognized his form
er patron and advised the boy to go
after policeman. The boy got two
policemen, but they wouldn't do any
thing without warrant.
But the saloonkeeper had a great
head on him. He upbraided the
dodger for his treatment of his fam
lily and got himself punched in the
eye. Thereupon one of the cops
made the pinch, son notified mother,
and all kinds of legal stranglehoIds
were fastened upon pa.
According to his wife, he has never
paid her a cent and is in arrears Just
$19,500, some part of which he will
have to dig up, his loving family al
leges, if he expects to see the outside
of a certain Jail which is his present
abode.
The lights continued to burn their
brightest in a brand-new Harlem
vaudeville and picture house, while
a dramatic playlet was on. One of the
company dispatched a stage hand to
protest to the owner of the theater,
