LAKESIDE BROWNIES"
 DEFEATED AT ENGLAND

The Lakeside "Brownies,'' the girls basket ball team of the Lake side school, suffered defeat at the hands of the England High School
 cam yesterday afternon in that city, the score being 30 to IS.
 Prof May, principal of the school, stated last night that he was we'll pleased with the showing made by his girls against the England team, as that team was composed of High School girls, all Of whom were much larger and heavier than the Pine Bluff team. The local girls will play the England team in this city about two weeks from now and they are going to work hard to secure re- venge Another fact to which Prof May attributes the defeat is that the game was played on a floor, while the local girls have never practiced anywhere except on the ground. The star playing for Pine Bluff was done by the two forwards Misses Mary Sorrels and Ethel Haley while the Misses Reeves and Sim mons were the main-stays for the England team.

THE CAPITAL DEBT.

Little Rock, Feb. 22.-George w.. Caldwell, of the firm of Caldwell x Drake, the former state capitol con- tractors, after stay of two weeks Ill the city, left Friday afternoon for his home in Indiana. Before going he declined to make any statement about the bills introduced in the Senate Fri day morning, one by Senator Jacob- son, offering to settle the dispute be- tween contractors and the state, and making the members of the Supreme Court the board of arbitration, and the other by Senator Moore, providing an appropriation for the completion of the capitol, but making the expendl- ture of $173,50O contingent upon the finding of the board of arbitration. If the state is successful, the work will be done. If Caldwell & Drake win, they will be paid out of the $173,O00
 The Jacobson bill requires the con- tractors to accept the proposition within sixty days, and file a bond of $20O,00O, from which the state can collect any sum due it, if the board of arbitration decides the contractors are indebted to the state.
 It is probable Caldwell & Drake will accept the bill and file the bond, which is heavy one, but the con- tractors have always been able to give bond for any amount, and if the terms suit them, they will have no difficulty in doing this.

ials of Vera Cruz, in view of actual conditions in that state. A band of sympathizers with Francisco Madero stopped a train on which he was be- lieved to be freeing from the federal capital to the coast with the object of rescuing him. The news reach ed General Roberto Velesco at the city of Vera Cruz, to whom it was re- ported that the venture had been suc- cessful. He thereupon loaded sev- eral trains with troops and rushed them to Crizaba to fight under the banner of the fallen president.
 General Huerta was informed of the movement and force of federal troops was sent off post-haste from the federal capital to Orizaba and on reaching there surrounded and dis armed the men, commanded by Ve- laScO.
 Francisco Madero and Pino Fnarez have been removed from the Nation> al Palace to closely guarded captivity in the penitentiary. This move is significant in view of the rumors of plots to liberate President Madero. Senora Madero again appeared be- fore General Huerta today to plead for clemency for her husband. She begged on her knees that leniency be shown him, but no promise was forthcoming. Huerta treated the Sonora with every courtesy and seemed to be deeply affected by her fright and sorrow, but he explained to her that in view of the investiga- tions which his enemies had demand ed that Madero was subjected to the authorities and could do nothing in his behalf. Congress must render the final decision, he told her.
 Governor Villareal of the state of Nuevo Leon, father-in-law of Gustavo who was shot to death in the capital, resigned his office today supposedly for the purpose of taking the field against Diaz.

ROADS SHOULD BE CARED FOX

The present year promises to De
 the greatest in the history of the
 movement tor the improvement of the public roads, according to the re-
 ports received from all parts of the
 country says the Arkansas Home stead. A joint committee of Con- gross is engaged in an investigation of the feasibility of federal aid in the construction, improvement and main- tenance of public highways, and the state legislature, now in session, is considering good roads legislation recently recommended by the Arkan sas Good Roads and Drainage Asso- citation, providing for a State High way Engineer In connection with the general impetus that the good roads movement has recently had in all parts of the county, the Director of the Office of Public Roads, United States Department of Agriculture, says: essli
 "TOO much stress cannot be laid upon the importance of maintenance in connection wit hthe work of inn proving the roads. The people in nearly all the states are filled with for road improvement, and are spending enormous sums of money in the construction of superb roads, and yet almost without excep- tion they are making little provision to care for the roads after they are built. This is true not only in the various counties, but under many of our state highway departments.
 ITO maintain the roads in good condition year after year requires a considerable annual outlay, but this outlay is infinitely less than the loss which must fall upon the people eventually if they allow their roads to go to utter ruin The thing for all advocates of good roads to do is to urge continuous, systematic main tenance."

EXPERIENCES OF HOUSTON

The following data about commits Tex, was prepared by the Houston Chamber of Commerce for publication ill . special newspaper issue and is authoritative. In part it follows.
 Commission government as exem- plitied in Houston probably is the most perfect of any city operating un- der q charter. The municipal admin istration changed from the old alder manic syste min July, 1905. The new regime took hold with a $4G0,O00 de- tscit, the city's finances demoralized and the citys credit under par After five years of commission government business basis and the city of Hous- ton has wiped out all floating debt arl has given to the taxpayers out of tho treasury, without the issuance of a s.nglc bond, permanent Improvements, principal items being auditorium. parks. new bridges and street paving, tAtS.iSlOGSl u WdtGI OSpdi SCIUO buildings, sinking fund, etc, of $2,- 179,5S5.S7, and all of this being paid out of current revenue besides elimi- hating the floating debt Further than this, while these improvements were going on the tax rate was reduced 30 cents on the $100.0O from $2.0O to S110. on about 60 per cent yalua- tion.
 That the people have confidence in their new commission is evident from the fact that proposition to pur- chase and operate the municipal water works plant, overwhelmingly defeated two years prior to commission form being adopted, was carried by ma- iority of three to one in May, 1906, after ten months of the new govern mort. The purchase price was $901,- 70O''
 The article continues at some length to explain the manner in which com mission form of government is oper- ated in Houston. One of the statis- ticians of the United States depart ment of commerce and labor vicited Houston and inquired into the views

A banker called attention to the fact that previously with high taxes the city was never theless heavily in debt; now with lower taxes a large share of the debt has been paid and at the same time the streets are better cared for and many improvements are being carried on.
