ENROLMENT WILL
 BREAK RECORDS HENDRIX PROSPECTS FINE
DORMITORY AND BOARDING FACILITIES ALREADY PRAC-
 TICALLY ALL ENGAGED.

Hendrix College will open with the largest enrolment in her history, in the opinion of President Reynolds and the faculty. Members of the faculty have covered most of the state, and their reports are fattering. They all say that the college is in high favor everywhere and that it will be crowd ed in September Prof. Greene has just returned from Northeast Arkan- sas, Prof. McClurkin from East Ar kansas and Prof. Parker from the southwest. They are all enthusiastic over the outlook. What is more to the point, President Reynolds found upon his return Monday, after an absence of two weeks, that all but three rooms at the boys dormitory had been en- gagged and that only two rooms at the girls home were still open. Upon in- quiry he found that some of the popu- lar boarding houses were already full.
 The Hendrix campus is now the scene of intense activity. Carpenters, paper hangers and plumbers are busy. Every possible building on or near the campus is being fitted up for the overflow of students now apparent to all. Improvements are being made on all the buildings.
 An unusually heavy demand for student labor has been made upon the college for next year. It is a fact that a large number of the Hendrix students work their way through col lege-certainly as large per cent as is to be found in any other institution. Hendrix ever extends helping hand to the poor boy. Many of the strong men of the state owe their education to help given them while students at Hendrix.
 MT. Headrick, the new coach at Hendrix, reached Conway few days ago and at once took the field for stu dents. He was a great fighter on Southwestern University's team and he now is showing the same spirit in his service for Hendrix.
 Prof. Staples, head of the history department, left Wednesday for Hot Springs, where he will rest for 10 days.

SECURES CARNIVAL
 COMP ANY FOR FAIR
BIG AMUSEMENT FEATURE
IS ENGAGED BY MANAGER J. A. KING FOR FIFTH ANNUAL
 FAULKNER FAIR.

One of the principal crticisms-in fact, about the only criticism-that has been heard against the Faulkner county fair in past years, Is that the amusement features and shows were not up to the standard, either in num- Der and quality. There will be no ground for this criticism this year, according to Manager'J. A. King, who has just booked one of the greatest carnival companies in the United States for full weeks engagement here during fair week. The company is known as the Clifton Kelley Shows, and consists of II high-class shows, four big riding devices, two great free attractions, 16-piece brass band and numerous concessions of various kinds.
 The company will open their en- gagement here on Monday, October 6, and remain until Saturday night, De- tober II, thus giving two extra days besides the fair dates, October z to lo, inclusive. An entire train IS required to carry the shows.
 The Cifton- Kelley shows were re- gently at Blue Island, Ill.,, where they were under the management of the Eagles of that city. In reporting the weeks doing, Q local newspaper, the Blue Island Standard, says:
 ..The Eagles are flying high this week and everyone is happy. The carnival, as predicted, is the biggest event ever held in Blue Island, and the local aerie is to be congratulated for bringing such clean, up-to-date organization to the city. The Great Clifton-Kelley Shows were truthfully advertised and they are honorably conducted.
 "Thousands of people throng the midway nightly from the moment the band first plays until II o'clock. Many patronize the various shows, while a number of the younger people enjoy throwing confetti, winning poodle dogs, bears and boxes of Dolly Var den candy, throwing balls at the ba- bies and having their fortunes told.
 "Women beautiful and men gener- ous crowd into the seats of the grant ferris wheel every night and cast their optics over the tops of the bn'id- ings, while young and old alike test the capacity of the everspopular mcr- ry-go-gound. The circling ocean wave always comes in for its share of the business.
 Among the bigger shows IS an eX- cellent colored minstrel performance

THE UNEXPECTED HAPPENED.

New York, Sept 18-Under the
most favorable conditions as regads
the settlement of the. strike and the
resumption of mining, officers of Lake
Superior copper companies say that
they will not be able to show much
more than nine months of normal pro-
duction in the current year. Some
progress has been made by the Calu-
met & Hecla organization in reopen
ing a number of shafts and getting
up ore, but practically all the other
properties on the Michigan Peninsula
are still tightly closed down. No Sc
cret is made by local directors of the
companies affected that the strike has
been prolonged for a much greater
length of time than they had expected.
They had hoped that the appearance
Of militia would curb the demonstra-
tons Of force on the part of the strik-
ers and would convince those who
were. following the union leadership
in lukeWarm fashion that it would be
to their best advantage to take back
their old places again. The troops
did keep the situation in hand as far
las the welfare of property was con-
Ecerned, but their presence Is thought
now to have stirred up considerable
resentement against employers in
quarters where it was not in especial
evidence in the early days of the
strike. If'true, this state of mind has
naturally added to the influence of the
union leaders in keeping the men in
Eline. If the diQfferences of employer
and miner could be settled without
further delay it is figured that at least
a month would be necessary to put
the mines in their former state of eff
| ficiency. This is the view of the sit
uaton taken by Wall Street as reported
n one of their papers.

ARBITRARY AND uNTENARLE.

fred Murphy has Just made his inves-
tigation as to conditions prevailing at
Calumet and other mining towns in
that vicinity. He says, 1.-THE men
have grievances that should be rene,

fusing in their individual discretion
Unemployment to any striker who has
engaged in acts of agitation or who
has melted thereto To agitate for
improved conditions, to agitate for
the right of employees to organize, to
ag1tate for any legitimate end is the
right of every citizen. To penalize
the exercise of that riht by refusing
employment throughout the copper
country is to put him and his family
upon that community practically with
out employment. 1t is wrong. funda-
mentally and wholly wrong in princi-
pie. In policy nothing so much re-
minds he of it as the obtruse course
Of the Bourbons. 1t would nut the
strikers who return to work In the no.
