.TEXARkANA COUPLE
WE'D EARLY TODAY
YOUNG NEWSPAPER MAN is
MARRIED TO PHILADELPHIA
LADY AT CAPITAL CITY.

Little Rock, Sept. "a wedding
that marked the elimination of TO-
nance of two years occurred at an
early hour this morning. The con-
tracing parties were James l.. Wad-
ley Jr, of Texarkana, Ark, and
Mrs. Grace NJ. Jackson of Philadel-
phia, Penn. They left on the MORN
ing train Immediately after the cere-
mony for their future home in Texar-
kama.
Mr.. Wadley is vice president of the
Texarkanian Publishing Co. and ed
itor of the Daily Texarkanian. He is
the son of former State Senator j. l..
Wadley, for many years editor and
publisher of the Hot Springs News,
and now editor and publisher of the
Daily Texarkanian. The bride was
formerly resident of Oklahoma
Two years ago she went to Hot
Springs as manager of the Mackay
Telegraph Company, and it was while
soliciting business for that company
that she made the acquaintance of
Mr.. Wadley, who was engaged ex-
tensively in newspaper correspond
ence. The Mackay company, it is
needless to say, got all the business
of the Hot Springs News Bureau, of
which Mr.. Wadley was manager, and
this business acquaintance soon rip
ened into love.

Grand tonight. 1t is the story of a
woman's husband who comes home i'll
and when the doctor is summoned he
leaves medicine to be given to the in
valid every half-hour. Night comes
on and the wife prepares for a lonely
vigil that she may faithfully admin
lister the medicine. In the still hours
of the early morning thief breaks
into the library. The wife starts at
the sound and breaks the bottle. She
knows that if the husband learns of
the presence of the intruder he will
succumb to the shock. There is no
telephone in the house, and as the
nearest neighbor is block away, the
woman is frantic when she discovers
it is time to administer the medicine.
She pleads with the thief to go to
the doctor to get more medicine, and,
after he realizes the seriousness of
the situation he accedes to the re-
quest.

Girls" Essanay, and THE Spirit of

HOPES TO SETTLE
lEYEE TROUBLES

Little Rock, Sept. Ex-Governor
Hays is in his office today for the
first time in a week. He has been
informing himself on the st. Francis
levee district affairs. He will leave

will be held Governor Hays is hope
full that he will be able, with the CO.
operation of the board and the repre-
sentative citizens of the district, to
bring about a satisfactory adjust

eventual elimination of politics which
has so long been feature of the st.
Francis levee situation, and secure
what the property owners most de-
sire, an adequate protection against
the encroachments of the Mississippi
floods.

At The Theatres
THE ARKW AY.

A two-reel Bison production, 'The
Grand Old Flag" will be presented
at the Arkway tonight. The story is
as follows: Don Lopez had tried to
remain faithful to the Spanish king
and crown, until the cruelty of Wey-
Ter had driven him to side with the
down-trodden insurrectos and with
money and influence furnish them
with arms. Ametza, his dark-eyed,
beautiful daughter, is courted by Ell
Donna, who, by courtly manner and
courtesy, has covered his identity as
a Spanish agent from the father and
won liking from Ametza. About this
time a terrific storm on the sea
throws two American soldiers of for
tune on the beach of Cuba near the
home of the Lopez. Ametza, by
chance, sees them and getting aid
rescues them. Ametza's attentions to
the Americans causes Ell Donza to
swear vengeance against them, and
his anger is added to by a good
American thrashing from Harold Lo-
gan.

THE SHORTER THE WORKING
DAY THE GREATER THE LABOR
Washington, Oct. 18.-The Fed
eral Bureau of Labor Statistics comes
out with what amounts to fiat state
ment that the shorter the working
day the greater is the output of the
laborer.
In its booklet just issued on the 10
hour day for women and young per-
sons in industry, the bureau. shows
that while wages have advanced and
hours have decreased, such advance
and decrease have taken place in the
period when American industrial ac-
tivity has increased to the greatest
extent" Further, the report states:
at is now well-known fact that the
adoption of a 9-hour day has not
affected the amount or value of the
output even in the case of establish
ments where machinery is predomi-
nately used" ..-.
The Bureau thus confirms the eco
nomic law which has always been
maintained by the labor unions that
limitation of hours of labor increases
instead of decreases the productivity
of labor" 1t is shown, for instance,
that in Norway, a 53-hour week in
the state workshops results in ap-
proximately the same total output as
was formerly obtained in the 6O-hour
week. This is, of course, due to the
fact that the workers are capable of
more intensive application to labor
for short period than for a longer
period. The exhaustion of the work
er by long hours of labor units him
for the next days work. A longer rest
and recreation period between work.
times, however, enables him to recu-
perate and remain always at his best.

POETRY TELLS TRAGIC STORY
OF DEATH OF THREE
Boston, Mass, Oct. 18.-On the
top floor of a tenement, in room
where the odor of gas still hung
heavy though the last of a quarters
worth had escaped from the jet,
police found the bodies of Mrs. F. ].
Johnson and her two small children.
The woman was so thin that she
seemed a shadow-woman. Her
cheeks were hollow and the skin
drawn tight across the bones; her
eyes were sunken in the sockets! She
was suffering from tuberculosis.
On pine table was a piece of
poetry, much thumbed and tear
stained. 1t read:
by wreck and explosion and fire,
By swindling and thievery and
traps
We are robbed that a stock may go
higher;
We die lest the dividend lapse.
And the State drops a tear and a
flower;
God willed it; why? Who was to
blame?"
A month ago Mrs. Johnson's hus-
band went to Maine to fight the same
disease from which she suffered and
she has been trying to support her
children and herself.
Yesterday she placed the last quar-
ter she possessed in the gas meter
and then waited death for herself
and her babies.
The instinct of life was strong to
the last, for she tried to crawl to the
window and lay dead within a few
inches of it.

She tried to, but to him 1t was SAD
DER than her tears would have been.
For an hour they walked through
the dim and musty streets. He exert
ed himself to amuse her and fairly
succeeded. But never did the unac-
countable fear, that presage of misfor-
tune, sleep in her heart. And at last,
When he took her to her carriage and
babe her good-by till dinner, half
formed idea began to grow in her
brain; to save Mr.. Jones without be-
traying Ryanne.
The latter's carriage was at the 9TH
er end Of the bazaars; so he strobe
sullenly through the press, rudely ell
DoWlng those who got in his way. An
occasional curse was flung after him;
but his height, his breadth of Shout

thing more active. The Moslems had
deal of faith in the efficacy Of
curses; so the jostled ones rested up

directly, or in the near future, Allah
would blast the unbeIeving dog in his
tracks.
What cleverness the mother and
scallawag of an uncle had shown to
have kept the child in ignorance all
these years! That she saw darkly, as
through fog, he was perfectly sure.
sooner or later the storm would burst
upon her innocent head, and then God
alone knew what would become Of
her. Oh, damn the selfish, sordid
world! At that instant a great long

all these evil webs, to begin anew
somewhere, even if that somewhere
were but wilderness, a clearing in a
forest.
This moment flashed and was gone.
Next, he reviewed with chagrin and ir-

the preceding night. He had had not
the slightest semblance of plan in
his head. Sifted down, he saw his
savage and senseless humor and the

What right had he, roisterer by night

CHAPTER X.
Mahomed LAUGHS.

The drawing back of Rya1ne's pow-
erful arm was produced by the stimu-
lus of self-preservation; but almost
instantly thought dominated impulse,
and all indications of belligerency dis
appeared. The arm sank, relaxed. 1t
was not possible nor polite that Ma
homed-El-Gebel meant to take repris-
al in this congested quarter. 1t would
have gained him no advantage what
ever. And Ryanne's perception of the
exact situation enabled him to smile
with the cool effrontery of man in
ured to sudden dangers.
well, we'll! So you have found
your way to Cairo, Mahomed?"
yes, effendi,' returned Mahomed,
with smile that answered Ryanne's
in thought and expression, the only
perceivable difference being in the ac-
centuated whiteness of his f 2 teeth.
eyes, have found you"
"And you have been looking for
me?"
Surely"
Ryanne, with an airy gesture, signi-
fed that he wished to enter his car
riage. Nahomed, with a movement
equally light, implied his determine
ton to stand his ground.
''In moment, effendi," he said
smoothly.
MahGc:ed spoke English more or
less fiuently. His career of forty-odd
years had been most co%O>ful. Once
young sheik of the desert, of ample
following, a series of tribal wars left
him unattached, a wanderer without
tent, village or onion-patch. He had
first appeared in Cairo. Here he had
of necessity picked up few words of
English; and from laborer in the cot
ton fields ne was eventually graduated
to the envied position of dragoman or
guide. He tired of this, being nomadic
by instinct and inclination. He tried
his hand at rugs in Smyrna, failed, and
found himself stranded in CONSTANT
nople. He drifted, became steve
dore, hotel porter, burying his pride
till that moment when he could, in
dignity and security, resurrect it. For
tune, hanging fire, relented upon his
appointment as caVasS or messenger
to the British Consulate. After
time, he became what he considered
PROSPEROUS; and like all fanatic pa
gans Of his faith, proposed to recon
struct his religious life by pilgrim
age to Holy Mecca. While there, he
had performed a considerable service
in behalf of the future Pasha Of Bag
dad, who thereafter gave him a place
in his retinue.
l@hcmed was not only proud but
wise; and a series Of events, sequences
Of his own sLreWdness, pushed him
forward till he became in deed, if not
in fact, the Pasha's righthand man in
Bagdad. That quaint city, removed as
It is from the ordinary highways of
the Orient, is still to most Of US an
echo remote and mysterious; and the
present Pasha enjoys great privileges,
over property, over life and death;
ard it is not charging upon fact to
say that when he deems it necessary
to lop off a head. he does SO, without
consulting his master in CONSTANT
nople 1t is all in the business Of a
