REPORT IS
EXPECTED

Bankers and manufacturers who COM

day.

ject would fall through for the want
of $4,000. This has been provided for
now it is said and nothing stands in the
way of the building. George Eder. Pet
er Meyn and Otto Knoerzer are on the
committee.
Provisions Made.
Local pride has prompted some hand
some donations to the building fund.
The club house will be erected on prop
erty in Muenich Court.
The. evolution of the Broken Corners
into fashionable and busy district
will then be ne--iJ completed. That
the Allardt Brothers. a theatrical syn
dicate which controls the Orpheunl
theatre, will build the big block they
promised is assured by members of
the firm. They state that the right par
ties are interested and that in due time
a deal is to be closed which will quiet
fears of the doubling.

An Old, Old Question.

The servant question is not a new ope, and were the wise Akiba still alive he might with right use his tru- ism, "It has all been here before," in connection with the problem. This may be demonstrated by no less an au- thority than Goethe. In his Wilhelm Meister." written in the latter days of the eighteenth century, there is scene where the hero comes to the home of Therese, sent there by Lothario and Jar no. Receiving Wilhelm, Therese asks to be excused because of her scant board: My cook,' she says, 'just ran away at most inopportune time, and our man mangled his hand. had to prepare all myself. Nothing bothers one more nowadays than servants; no one will serve, not even themselves"

Fort Smith, July 16.-State Mine h. spector J. c. Clary Tuesday closed the Jenny Lind mine because of unsani- tary conditions in it, and the Bonan- ga mine because he found it unsafe. Both mines are at Hartford
 Immediately on the announcement of Inspector Clary, Prosecuting Attor- ney Paul Little announced that he wanted all the facts in the case from the state labor department, so that he could lay the matter before the grand jury in session at Greenwood so as to ascertain if any state mining laws had been violated
 Inspector Clark will take the matter of the Jenny Lind mine up with the State Board of Health, as he declared that he was surprised that there had not been an outbreak of fever at the mine.
 He declared the Bonanza mine was a death trap, and that it would not be allowed to reopen until his directions were followed to make the place safe

primaries have decided to cast aside their factional differences and support Judge c. w. Hays, of Camden, the Democratic nominee ill the coming election.
 The election will be held on July 23. Owing to the dispute as to the primary nomination between Judge Hays and Mr. Brundidge, the party has been seriously split, and there is more doubt as to the outcome of the elec- tion than in any similar race in Ar kansas for years.
 Presidents of Arkansas who have been in Memphis within the past week generally believe that in spite of the threats of Brundidge's friends that they would refuse to support Judge Hays, that most of the formers supporters will vote for Hays rather than risk the election of Harry My CTS, the Republican nominee or of G. w. Murphy, the Bull Moose candidate.
 "A number of Arkansans have been at the local hotels this week and al- most without exception those of them that were supporters of MT. Brundidge before the primary have decided to vote and work for Judge Hays rather than see the state turned over to any other than Democratic governor"

He thought he could and started off Three hours afterward he appear ed with ten quart pail full of angle worms The boys were alarmed lest there should not be money enough in the party for such wealth of bait, but they put on bold front and some one asked, "How much do we owe you?" "Well, don't rightly know" answered the old man; ''the ground is kinder solid and the worms is far down. and it's been hard on my back te dig 'em. but I've half mind to go flshin' myself tomorrow, an if you'll give me half the bait we'll call 1t square,"

Some of the local automobilists in- sist on exceeding the speed limit and many of them do not comply with the traffic laws, especially the law requir- ing them to keep to the right. Others insist on "cutting corners" This is dangerous practice and the police have been given orders to arrest all machine drivers who do not comply with the traffic laws to the letter. privers of teams and persons in bug gies are not complying with the traf- lie laws as they should and they will also be arrested. One of the great est troubles being experienced with driver of wagons, trucks, etc., is their failure to turn to the right when given warming that machines are ap- proaching from the rear. They re- main in the middle of the street and accidents are narrowly averted be- cause of their violation of the traf- flee laws.

THE STRIKE RESTS
President is Informed That They Are Ready for Mediation and Cancellation.

New York, July 16.-The managers committee, representing the Eastern railroads, and the union leaders, who demanded an increase in pay for the conductors and trainmen, today came to an understanding which will end all talk of a strike for some weeks to come, at least.
 After conference between the rail- road officials and the representatives of the employees, the following mes- sage was forwarded to President Will son.
 '"rhe conductors and trainmen and the conference committee of mana gers of Eastern roads are jointly de- sirOus of the immediate services of the board of mediation and concilia- tion, as called for in the Erdman act. We would be glad if the commits sioner of mediation and conciliation would advise us immediately upon his confirmation in order that we may take up the matter with him."
 The message was signed by A. B. Garretson and w. G. Lee, for the unions, and by Elisha Lee, for the managers.
 No further statements were made by either side to the controversy and all seemed satisfied with the out come.

Many residents of this city have complained to the police about the use- less "muffler" that is "cut out' by districts of the city every night-af- ter midnight. During the summer months the people sleep with open windows and doors and many of them sleep on porches. They are awaken ed by the "mufflers,' which some auto drivers take delight in using in the still of the night. There is an ordi- nance against the muffler in this city and the police will enforce it from now on.

X New Phase

New York, July 16.-The new phase of arbitration proceedings between the Eastern railroads and their trainmen and conductors, namely, whether the roads will insist on presenting their grievances against the men while the employees argue for higher pay, was discussed today between the confer ence committee or railroad managers and representatives of the unions.
 Since the agreeing to arbitration under the Newlands act the labor leaders have been scrutinizing the rail- roads letter yielding to arbitration, and they are worried lest the words "submit to arbitration" contain some thing in the nature of joker. To de- termine if possible, just how broad a hearing the roads expect they asked for today's conference.
 Leaders of the employees today in- sisted that the Erie Railroad must abide by the findings of the arbitra- tion board. During the entire nego- tiations from January to July 1, at which time the strike vote was can vassed,' says their statement, mo intimation was given to us that the Erie was not dealing in god faith The Erie men, therefore are justified in their contention that whatever award is rendered by arbitration On other roads must also apply to the Erie''
