WILL, PERHAPS, EXTEND
LEGISLATIVE SESSION

Little Rock, Feb 21.-The request
embodied in a concurrent resolution
adopted by both houses, for an opin-
ion from Attorney General Moose as
to the time the 60-day session of the
legislature begins, has not yet reach
ed that official. 1t is not generally be-
heved that the attorney general will
hold that the session begins on any
other day than January 10, the first
day of the session. 1t is the opinion
that the people meant 60-day ses-
sion and nothing else, and that the
action of the speaker and supreme
court in declaring the amendment le-
gally adopted had nothing to do with
the time it became effective. There is
growing belief, however, that it will
be necessary to take advantage of the
extra Is days permitted by the
amendment in order to pass the nee
essary appropriation bills.

who was convicted in September,
1912, of carrying a pistol and fined
$50. Garrett is an 18-year-old boy at

record for department and proficiency
in school and his friends are convinc-
ed he has resolved to make a man of
himself" And he adds, "The human
ity of the governor will suggest that
at is better to raise mortal to the
skies,
Than to drag an angel down."

PRAISE FOR CONWAY
EDUCATIONAL JOURNAL

The Lonoke Democrat has the fol-
lowing complimentary mention of the
Arkansas Teacher and Prof. J. J..
Doyne:
A new magazine, named The Ar
kansas Teacher, has been started at
Conway, of which Prof. J. J. Doyne
will be the guiding genius. The is
sues we have seen are full of articles
of good merit We know that this Pc
riodical has not been projected for pri-
vate gain; it's inspiration is an inter
est in humanity. We know of no one
better equipped than Prof. Doyne to
conduct an undertaking of the kind.
He is man of much learning and has
the fine art of imparting what he
knows so that the hearer or reader
can get the idea. He knows the needs
of Arkansas and can help Arkansas
teachers perhaps better than any man
in the state. We notice one fact,
which we commend, an absence of the
earmarks of the sycophant and pc
dant.

The Rhine May Get the Danube.

The Rhine May Get tho Danube.
OF late the evolutions Of the course
of the Danube above Vienna have been
the subject of much research. Accord
ing to most authorities, the source of
the Danube is in the two streamlets
called Bregach and Breg, which de-
scend from the tanks of the Black
forest, in the grand duchy Of Baden,
and unite at Donauschingen with
spring. regarded by some as the true
source. The stream from this point
flows southeastward toward the bases
Of the Rhine and the Lake of Con-
stance through the calcareous beds of
the Swabian .Jura and at certain points
into sinks and riffs. Coloring matter
has shown that there is leakage OF
this snbterranean water to the Rhine
basin. The prediction of German
scientist is that the whole Of the Dan
nbe above Tuttlingen will some day
ne captured by the Rhine.-New York

Matches Beauty 81 The MILKY Wy q
8ssn Ia Telescope.
The MILKY way, or galaxy, Is an ap-
parent ring extending entirely around
the universe Of stars visible In the
largest telescope. It Is composed Of
suns In literal millions. They are 90
remote that, as seen from the earth,
they appear to be close to each other.
while really they are separated by
millions and billions Of miles. 70 the
eye the belt Of soft light looks like q
continuous band OF cloth Of pearl, but
telescopes have the effect Of bringing
objects nearer. This separates the
nlmy cloud into many millions Of gilt
tering but minute points on the black
background Of space. At distance
forest trees seem to be close together,
but 40 they are approached they sep
arate and stand alone
It Ii next to impossible to describe
the matchless beauty Of the Milky
way a. seen in telescope of great
power. Carpet large room with
black velvet. Hang many electric
lights In the ceiling. Throw down and
scatter all over the black floor q bushel
OF minute diamonds, rubies, pearls,
saphires. opals, amethysts and other
gems. Then turn on the light.
You would have a faint imitation Of
the supernal glories of the galactic
hosts. For the appalling depths Of
space look black In our great tele-
scopes. In places these suns look by
perspective as though they were ar
ranged in piles, heaps and banks or
built up into colossal windows, or
twisted into spirals, or dashed into
wisps and cosmic spray. In some
places the concentration is so great
and dense that only the most power
full telescopes on earth can magnify
enough 10 bring out details. A few
clusters exist that have not so far
been resolved into these needle points.
