The night and day in New York
TO be filled with sightseeing, con.
stitute an extra feature of the tour
as originally planned The Sentinel
is determined to give the young la
dies ample opportunity to visit their
country's largest city. We shall ar
range for the young ladies to attend
a notable production on one of the
famous roof gardens of the city, to
take trip along the great Riverside
Drive. and to visit many of the nota-
Bile and historic buildings and sec
tions of the city. The stop over in
New York will be made probably on
the return trip.
Other great cities to be visited on
the journey to or from Boston are
st. Louis. Chicago Pittsburgh and
Philadelphia. The young ladies will
also have an opportunity to see the
points of interest in the historic city
of Boston.
There is no question but what the
trip from here to Boston will be a
rich treat in itself and will be a
most desirable tour even if the Euro
pean tour were not to be included.
The trip across The Atlantic to be
made by the two young ladies on
the Cymric will be filled with nu-
merous pleasures, for the Cymric is
one of the most popular and one of
the largest of the famous bin
steamers of the White Star line. THE
fact that it is coo feet long gives an
idea of its size The Cymric has all
of the modern conveniences and
Injuries, and to all of these the
young ladies will have access. The
Cymric has three decks. the upper
bridge deck. the Promenade deck and
the saloon deck There are spacious
parlors, music rooms. library. loung-
ing rooms, smoking rooms. Marconi
wireless stations, electric elevators,
electric lighting system, magnificent
dining saloon game rooms, gymnasi-
um and a great series of other fea-
lures of this nature. The prone
nades are broad, extending nearly
the full end of the ship. affording
ample opportunity to enjoy this ex-
hilirating feature of an ocean voy-
age. The state room to be occupied
by The Sentinel's guests is admirably
located amidships, and is most at
tractively appointed and convenient
ly arranged
Carries Music.
The Cymric carries band and or
chestra and several other big enter
tainment features.
The Sentinel proposes that the
ocean voyage of the two young ladies
shall be made under circumstances
OF the most delightful nature.

Bodies Found in Ruins-Gas Explosion
 Wrecks Building.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Hot Springs.-The business district Of Hot Springs was visited by dis astrous fire last week, which destroyed two tWo-story brick buildings. It's further spread to the north was pre- vented only by fire wall seperating the Thompson building from the Ohio Club and the efficient work of the fire department. Several persons are believed to have perished and some bodies have been found. 1t is possible that a more thorough search of the ruins may reveal more. The loss is estimated at $300,O00, with insurance estimated at about $100,000
 The cause of the fire was an explo- sion of natural gas in the basement Of the building occupied by Mattar Bros. Oriental store, which practically blew the building to pieces. Fire quickly followed the explosion, and so quickly did it spread that the clerks and GUS toners who were in the store barely escaped with their lives. Several were pinned in the wreckage by debris, nearly all of whom were rescued.

The house passed the bill to change the rate of taxation by shifting the levies from one fund to another, and also laid the bill appropriating $25,- 900 for the Arkansas National guard in the cold, cold ground. The "clin- cher" was put on the military appro- priation bill, which prevents it's re- consideration, and taps has been sounded for the Arkansas guardsmen. As a result of the defeat of the ap- propriation for the guard, Arkansas will be the only state in the Union without National Guard and the banners will be furled and laid away. The government appropriation is ex- pected to be withdrawn and as a re- suit it will be a difficult matter to reorganize the state militia in the fu- ture.

A stubborn fight was made on the bill to change the taxation rate, and a motion by Patterson to table the bill failed. Sain of Howard objected to the bill on the ground that the sink ing fund was created for the purpose of taking care of the interest on the school bonds due in 1929. He said that there now is $108,000 in the sink ing fund and desired to know why this was not borrowed and the one-eighth mill levy be allowed to stand.
 Westmoreland of Sebastian was in favor of shifting the rate. He said that the idea that the people are over burdened with taxes has been created by politicians until the people have begun to believe it. He declared that the people are not taxed too much di- rectly, but are taxed too much indirect ly. He believed in going forward in stead of backward.
 Smith of Bradley called attention to the fact that d careful estimate Of the income and expenditures for the next two years shows that at the end of the two years there will be a de- ficit of between $500,000 and $l,o00,- GOO, and he wanted to know where the money is coming from to make up this deficiency. He said that the peo- pie would like to have reduction of the rate of taxation, but conditions now are such that it is impossible to reduce the rate. He declared that a deficit is staring the people in the face and the only thing to ve done Is to provide against it.
