 BIOGRAPH The Painted Lady
 LUBIN The Old Chess Players ---- lHATHE Little Ravens Sweetheart
AmuSenlents

The bill which opened at the Or phao last night for the remainder of the week is one which should be a good drawing for the theater. Miss Mae Harding opens the show and has a sweet voice and her monologue is very touching. She opens in beau- tiful silk gown and finishes in male costume and is hard to distinguish as the same person. The -Four Marvel ous Mells" close the show and as ring artists and muscle posers they have never had their equal in Pine Bluff. They perform some very diff ficult stunts and was well received by the audience. Seibert's orchestra furnished their usual program.

OIL BURNING ENGINES
 ARE DANGEROUS
FEDERAL BOILER INSPECTOR MAKES REPORT TO COMMERCE
 COMMISSION.
John F. Ensign, Following Investiga- tiOn, Says Locomotives Generate
 More Heat Than Water Can Absorb.

Washington, Jan. 9.-That crews and passengers on trains drawn by oil burning locomotives in the south west are riding hand in hand with death on every trip is the substance of a report made today to the Inter- state Commerce Commission by John F. Ensign. chief inspector of boilers, on his investigation of the accident on the Southern Pacific railroad near Cosgrove, New, last October.
 Ensign says the oil burning loco motives generate such heat that the water obtained in that section is not heavy enough to absorb it and protect the boiler. To prevent accidents he recommends that tonnage on al freight and passenger trains be reduc- ed so that it will not be necessary to overheat the boilers in propellins the train.
 The accident at Cosgrove in which the boiler of the locomotive was blown 600 yards ahead of the train and tha fireman and engineer killed was due, Ensign explains, to tht thinness of the water which failed te absorb the heat and cause the boiler to bulge and burst.

LOUISIANA REAL
 ESTATE MANS STORY
SPECIAL AGENT FOR LOUISIANA DELTA FARM O., TELLS OF
 VALUE OF PLANT JUICE.
Sleeps Fine After Using One Bottle
 and Continues to Enjoy ,.. it's Benefits.

Ellis T. Brawley, special agent fo1 the Louisiana Delta Farm Company and associated with J. w. Stewart real estate agent at 316 Safety build. ing, Rock Island, H., says:
 Having been troubled with nerv- ousness and obtaining but little sleer nights, I determined to try Plant Juice on the advise of reliable par ties, and am happy to say obtained good results from the very start Therefore, l take pleasure in recom- mending it. l felt there was no harm in trying it at least, in fact I was ready to try anything in order to ob- tain sleep. 1 am now sleeping fine and have used only one bottle. I in- tend to continue it's use for perman- ent results
 Such a statement as the foregoing should prove of unusual interest to those suffering with similar troubles Members of any family ill Pine Bluff are likely to be found suffering with the same nervous, debilitated condi- tion of the body, as it is an all too common complaint in the large towns, where natures laws are more apt to be disregarded.
 All of this pervous, debilitated trouble, is due principally to imper- feet digestion, which is superinduc- ed by the strain of modern city life. There is too much hastily eaten food.
 Most people however, are not ser- iously affected with imperfect diges- tion. they are just loggy and nervous and easily tired. They feel worn out after a little exertion and are moody and depressed. These are sure symp- toms of an overworked stomach that needs tonng up and regulating. Plant Juice will positively accomplish this toning up and restoring the organs of the body to their healthy, normal con- dition. Our preparation must prove satisfactory, or we will not take the money for it." Call at SeaWelPs Pharmacy today and have a talk with the Plant Juice man.

SCRIPT OF MAD 4EMPERORv
Relic Presented to San Francisco Mu-
scum a Reminder Of the Early
Days Of That City.

The old days Of Sar Francisco-that
period about twenty years ago when
the 4Guttersnipe," "Topsy-Turvey,"
"The Great Unknown" and other ia
nous street characters were daily
sights in the eity-are recalled vividly
by a donation made last week to the
Golden Gate Park Memorial museum.
Chris W. Smith gave the museum a
piece Of script issued BY the far-famed
Emperor" Norton. the millionaire pio-
neer, whose reason went with the loss
Of his money by unwise speculation.
It was in the late seventies that
Emperor" Norton held forth in all his
glory. He had come to California in
1s4s. had endured all the hardships OF
that early date, and retired TO San
Francisco when his wealth had
reached the million mark He was
not violently insane, simply possessed
Of the hallucination that this was one
vast empire. over which he ruled. and
that those whom he daily passed on
the streets were his humble subjects.
The piece of script presented to the
Park museum Is perhaps the only relic
Of one habit OF Emperor" Norton.
Striding into a store or into a place OF
liquid refreshment the emperor
would, in a dlgnifed manner, order
whatsoever he wished. In payment he
would give a piece Of script such as
that received by the museum, or may
hap a personal check. More than once,
say the old-timers, a $4,000 check was
given in payment for a small glass Of
mineral water
Emperor" Norton's script is printed
on a blank piece Of paper slightly
larger than a bank note. and worded
as follows:
"The Imperial Government OF Em-
peror Norton / promises to pay holder
hereof the sum Of ten dollars in the
year 1850. with interest at i've per
cent. per annum from date. the prin-
cipai and interest to be converted at
the option Of the holder at maturity
into twenty.year fye per cent. bonds.
or payable in gold coin Given under
our royal hand and seal this Goth day
Of March. ISIS.

Why don't you make more use Of
your left hand?
1t has been estimated that OF per
cent. Of the English-speaking people
are righthanded when they grow up.
Seventeen out Of every hundred are
born righthanded. but the remaining
SO are born without any inclination to
use one hand more than the other
and, therefore, become rlghthanded
owing to Influences brought to bear
on them during their childhood days.
It is impossible TO calculate how
much men lose by neglecting their left
hands Formerly-in primitive times,
that is to say-everyone was ambi-
dextrons. and the sooner people be
come ambldextrous again the better.
In Japan. l0r many years, soldiers
and sehoolboys have been taught to
use both hands And this wise ex-
ample Is now being followed In Ger
many.

A tree is a stick made Of various

Trees are tall short, thick and thin,

nude trees stand around and invite

them a little later. which makes them

been any higher in the evolutionary

a sort Of dance to which the partie.s
