The moving pictures made in Pulas- Xii county by the Pathe company, for exhibition at the Panama-Pacific Ex- position, have been passed upon by the censors, and approved. The pie lures are very clear, and show Pulas- Xii county stock and plantations, as well as the school parade at the county fair, and particularly the baby show there. The Pathe operator is now working in other sections of the state in order to complete this work by the first of the year.

ARK KADELPHIA HIGH WINS
eBats Fast Prescott Eleven, 58 to 12,
 In Morning Game.

Philadelphia, Nov. 26.-Playing in drizzling rain, Philadelphia High School defeated Prescott this morning 58 to 12. Prescott started off well. Their first touchdown came as a result of tumble by Philadelphia deep in Prescott's territory, Denmann taking the ball 75 yards through an open field Later in the game Prescott advanced the ball down the field on forward passes, the last of which netted their second touchdown. Except for these brilliant flashes, Prescott was far out classed.
 The locals, using old-style football principally, scored nine touchdowns and kicked four goals.
 Captain Abraham went over four times and Wright, Schuh, Waldrop, Berryman and Wilder scored one touchdown each Continual slugging by thev isitors marred the game. However. they soon learned that their own physical welfare depended upon clean football and they were prevailed upon to change their tactics. Arka- delphia started the game with a changed lineup and shifts were made throughout the game.

GOV. HAYS BELIEVES
 ARTHUR HODGES SANE


 Gov. c. w. Hays does not take the expert side of the Arthur Hodges case he having a system of his own to judge the sanity of a murderer, and Gov. Hays is not the least backward in ex- pressing his mind, once he has gone carefully into subject and considered it from all angles.
 "If Arthur Hodges is insane, or even mentally undeveloped," says Gov. Hays, "then we have 50,00O in sane or mentally undeveloped men in the State of Arkansas. "The men who have watched Hodges every day since he was brought to the penitentiary two years ago, do not believe he is insane. Dozens of others have talked with him and failed to find any evi- dence of insanity"
 Hodges is now the center of com- plicated legal contest in state and county courts, in an effort to prevent his electrocution for the murder of a Clark county officer who had arrest ed him for trivial offence At first it was claimed that Hodges was in sane at the time the crime was com mitted. This defense failed and now the attorneys seek to prevent the ex- ecution on the grounds that he is in- sane now.

 I was greatly pleased and impress ed last evening with your rendering of scenes from "The Music Master" You brought out forcibly both the hu- nor and the pathos of the old Ger mans character and held the close at tention of your audience every mom- ent.

The orphan is not hopeless because of
his heredity. That may be the very best.
1t Is his environment that has been at
fault All orphan. asylums should be built
in the heart Of a great city. They should
be merely homes, boarding places where
the children live. But they should be sent
to public schools. They should have the
education of contact. They should learn
to fight the big bully instead Of running
to file a complaint with the institution
against him, to be acted upon at the next
board meeting
This applies not only to orphans. but to
children who are on the border line or
have crossed considerable distance on
the other side Of feeble mindedness. The
feeble mind can be strengthened, but the
place to strengthen 1t is not in the country,
but In the city. Weak wits are strength
ened by contact with stronger ones. Homes
and schools for the Predetermined should
be in the midst of great cities, not even on
their edge. The unfortunates should need
the stimulus of the thoughts and actions

Of others. The quiet of the remote
country is for the incurable insane who
need to be soothed.
The Scotch practice of treating the mild
ly insane has much to recommend. 1t. The
canny Scots board out such cases In
families, where they help in the work and
are in measure part of the family life
This strengthens their brain and their
social instinct. Particularly is this true of
the class Of persons who are only little
feeble-minded. The manifestly feeble
minded are not a menace, because they
understood and segregated and taken care
OF. But those who are only slightly weak
minded, the near-normals, are dangerous to
society, because their cases are not UNI
derstood until some harm has been
wrought. The near-normals need to be
educated in special way. DR.. Cheeseman's
School for Atypcal Children in New Jersey
is doing excellent work. All such children
should be near centres of civilization.
Their lives should not be simple, for SIM
plicity enfeebles. They should be complex,
for complexity strengthens.

To add brilliance and color to the scene
several Hindu potentates who have be-
come fayorites in Partisan society were in
vted to attend, wearing all the Jewels of
their state costumes
Conspicuous among them was the Ma
harajah of Kapurthala, who married the
beautlfui Spanish girl Anita Delgado,
whom he has raised to the first position in
the cosmopolitan society OF Paris. The
Maharajah wore the turban, silk stockings
and flowing robes of his native costume.
The dusky potentate was covered from
head to foot with diamonds, pearls, rubies,
emeralds and other precious stones. He
thus formed link between the various
groups. each of which wore one kind of
jewel only. He and three other Hindus
were the only men participating in the
great jewel display and eyolutions in the
Blue Grotto. The European society men
who were to take part in the ball formed
an admiring audience at this stage.

tainment ever given was the jewel
ball of the Princess Jacques de
Broglie, held Immediately before the out
break OF the war.
Sociologists cannot help remarking upon
the extraordinary luxury Of this entertain
ment and the scenes Of misery, ruin and
terror which have followed so closely
upon 1t. Many OF them argue that there
is direct connection between such af-
fairs and the present worldwide catastro-
phe, because it is the desire for luxuries
that lead nations into war.
Many OF the men who were present at
this great ball have since been killed In
battle. An equally large number OF the
brilliant young women who were the prin-
cipal ornaments OF the affair are now
widows or otherwise bereaved by the war,
and in many cases financially ruined by its
events
Intelligent observers say that Paris will
not see such an affair as this again fo.'
many years. II at all. 1t is a symptom of
a plutocratic age that is passing. When
the war is over about one-fourth or more

the nation alive.
The husband of the Princess Jacques de
Broglie belongs to family that has been
noted in French history since ancient
times. The Princess was born Mile. Ber-
ther de Wagram, a member OF the family
descended from Napoleons famous mar
shall. Both families have made alliances
with influential commercial families, which
have brought them great wealth. The
Prince and Princess have splendid town
house at No. IL Avenue de Messine.
The ball was organized specially for the
purpose OF enabling the owners Of great
jewelry collections to display them to the
best advantage.
1t has been estimated that the jewels
worn were worth sS0,500,00O.
Ordinarily great balls are planned with
some artistic or fantastic idea. OF this
character are the Oriental fetes and the
historic costume balls which have, lately
