TEACHERS DEFICIENT
 IN TWO BRANCHES
EXAMINER LAUGHTER FINDS POOR WORK IN ARITHMETIC
 AND SPELLING.

The result of the March examina- tions was 12 first-grades, 13 second grades, and 21 third-grades, accord ing to Examiner J. M. c. Vaughter
 "The cause for so many third-grades was extremely low grades on arith- metic and spelling, especially the ar ithmetic," said Prof. Vaughter. "The arithmetic was as practical as ever I saw The spelling was 50 practical words. There is something radically wrong somewhere. 1 am afraid we are not doing as much real hard studying as we should. When teach CTS grade from 75 to 99 on nearly everything else and then fall to 60 or 65 on spelling and arithmetic, they are not balanced up right. A chain is not any stronger than it's weakest link. The teachers have my sympa- thy, and l give them the advantages of all doubts, but l can't grant first or second grade licenses when they don't give the correct results to more than four examples out of eight"

WOULD BE OF GREAT VALUE
Idea for . Laboratory of Safety De- vices Has Seen Put Forward by
 Employers of Labor.

Why not have . laboratory of safe ty devices is the question asked by many manufacturers who have been giving honest attention to the subject of preserving the health and physical we'll being of their employees. With the many safety devices already offered, the average manufacturer is some- what in the dark as to the appliances which best could befit his business.
 With this idea in view, it is pro posed that . staff of competent engi- neers be appointed whose sole duty it shall be to test the numerous appli- ances offered and decide whether they arc fitted to the various industries they represent.
 Fire prevention naturally would prove one of the biggest subjects to be taken under consideration. Many inventions have to do with hose, doors. shutters, etc., and under present con. ditions the only way for factory owner to determine their value is to put them - . test--those tests oft times being made under conditions where a great loss in human life re- suits.

HOW THEY PUT IT OVER
 IN OLD MISSISSIPPI
(From a dispatch to the Commercial Appeal.)

Blytheville, Ark, March 26.-Re- turns from all but one box in the Os- ceola district show that Clarke got 1,200 majority over Kirby for Unit ed States senator
 Considerable feeling has been aroused here over Wilson of the low CT end of the county, polling such a great number of votes, as the poll tax list shows that there are only 36 legal voters in that precinct, while total of 13S was boiled there. People gen. .erally, regardless of whom they sup ported, condemn the conduct of the election officers of that place.
 It is expected that 800 people from the Chickasawba district will go to Osceola Monday to be present when the vote is canvassed by the Demo- -ratic Central Committee.

MALAYS NOT OF ONE RACE
Common Error, But Travellers Know That 1t Has No Foundation
 In Fact.

Take the Java Malay, be he Java nese, Soundanese or Madourese. Watch him climb cocoanut palm; in less than no time he Is at the top of the smooth trunk, fifty or sixty feet in height. Notice him in the street, squatting-his toes, like these of Q monkey, prominent-on the edge of a step or pavement, note his sinuous movements! Is he not a man of nature all over? All the aboriginal inhabt tants of the Malay archipelago are Malays but in Java alone you find the calm, quiet Soundanese of West Java, the true Javanese of Middle Java-a much finer race-and the treacherous Madourese of Madoura and East Java
 It is therefore evident that to talk about "Malays" is really incorrect. Anthropologically only is 1t really correct to term all these peoples Ma lays; one would not think of terming all white people Aryans. The term Malay merely refers to one of the great families of mankind The Malay men folk, taking them as a whole, do not make as near so good an impress sion as their women. Contrary to what they really are, they look puny; they are also short have shifty eyes, 8 broad nose, perhaps Q mustache, sell dom a beard; they are lazy. untrust- worthy, will harbor revenge for years, are usually ugly Being Moslems, they all wear 8 head covering, made of col ored linen. The lower classes wear this carelessly, although the Malays of higher standing are very careful in ar ranging it, which they do very ingeni ously. It looks incongruous to see a Malay with "topee' or helmet, above his usual head covering; nevertheless, this is general. A pair of cotton pants, 8 shirt, and a girdle of printed cloth, called 'sarong," form the av- craze Malay's garb, and he is seldom without his kris or dagger-like knife.-T. P.'s Weekly, London.

Keats a Great Poet

One of the highest of authorities declares the Ode to Nightingale" to be "one of the final masterpieces of human work in all time and for all ages" The same high authority re- fers to the odes to Autumn" and to the "Grecian Urn" az being unequaled and unrivaled, the triumphant ac- complishment of the very utmost beauty possible to human words" In Keats larger poems are passages that approach very near to poetic perfec- ton. Keats died at twenty-six. And yet he lived long enough to have writ. ten some of the finest things in litera- ture.

VOTE IN JACKSON
 FOR GOOD ROADS I93 MILES TO BE BUILT
COUNTY TO ISSUE $675,OOO IN BONDS-COST SIX CENTS
 PER ACRE.

Little Rock, March 27.-An advis ory vote was taken in Jackson county last Wednesday on the question of the proposed county highway system, and the question carried by a majority of two to one. By this vote the repre- sentative of the county-W. M. Shaw CT was nominated-is instructed to introduce and work for the passage of bill providing for the construc- tion of the proposed system.
 This is, the first time such a vote has ever been taken in the history of the state, and the highway commis- sion feels that it is an endorsement of the policy adopted by the board.
 The proposed plans, which have been worked out by State Highway Engineer H. R. Garter, call for the construction of 193 miles of improved modern highway, estimated to cost about $675O00. This will place every piece of land in the county, with the exception of Glaize and Barren town ships, within three miles of an inn proved road.
 The main road will begin at the north end of the county, run south through Swifton, through Tucker man, Campbell, Diaz, Newport, Err win, Auvergne, Shoffner, Weldon, Tu- pelo and Simmons. The road will be P feet wide, with 16 feet of macadam and will be 43 miles long, costing S193,500. There will be IF subsi- diary roads. 'f
 There is a total taxable value in Jackson county of $4,000,000, of which the railroads are assessed $2,- 4,O00. By levying a one and one half per cent benefit, the interest on $675 5,O0O of bonds can be paid and the bonds retired in 19 1-2 years. This means that land assessed at $4 per acre, the average assessed value in Jackson county, would pay six cents per acre, or the rate could be reduced and the time extended.
 It is recommended that the board of directors shall consist of one man from each township, to be elected by the people.
 "The building of this system of roads, says Commissioner Dye, means that farmers will not only have the advantage of good roads, but the money will be spent in the various communities and paid back in cash and paid back for labor and team hire and paid back at season of the year when nothing else can be done on the farm. It will make busi- ness for the merchant and banker be- cause the money spent will be new money put into circulation, or money that was not in Jackson county be- fore the bonds were sold"

 DUNAWAY'S LEAD
IIS 62l AHEAD OF HULK
OTHER RESULTS OF INTEREST TO FAULKNER COUNTY
 PEOPLE.

According to Thursday morning s | Gazette the additional vote received yesterday only served to increase the i lead of M. E. Dunaway over Gus Fulk for the nomination for prose cutting attorney. Dunaway's lead in the district is now 621, and it is prac- tically impossible for Fulk to over come this lead.
 A rumor was rife late yesterday afternoon that MT. Fulk intended to institute contest, alleging many ir- regularities, especially in the Second ward of Little Rock. Asked about this, Mir. Fulk made the following statement:
 T have not yet decided to contest the election. Everything is in a too intangible condition for me to make an announcement just now. How ever, it is certain that there are many discrepancies and these may be look ed into later"
 The only two townships in Pulaski county now unreported are Young and Ellis. It is not likely that the two combined boiled more than 50 votes.
 Despite the most strenuous efforts the Gazette has been able to obtain the results from but nine of the 21 townships in Perry county. Rose Creek township held no election.
 The additional returns received yes terday made practically no change in the contest for the nomination for circuit judge. Judge Guy Fulk is leading John w. Wade by 800 votes, which assures his nomination.
 For state senator of the Twenty Seventh district, including White and Faulkner, w. P. Davidson defeated Clark by majority of more than two to one, according to the Searcy pa pers.
