"The Arrival of JOsie."

She arrives in America and endeav- ors to locate Miss Blake, an American
 girl, who, while studying music in Germany, had protected her from her |ill-tempered aunt. After meeting with
 some very funny experiences, owing
 to her ignorance of the country and its ways, she finds the Blake family
 have moved out West. She strikes
 up" an acquaintance with Hank, a
 grocery boy, by knocking him sprawl
 ing on turning street corner, and he gets her job as servant girl with a young married couple she met coming over on the steamer. At the moving
 picture show with Tank, Josie is in her glory, thinking gleefully of her aunt's rage and astonishment on find ing her gone, bag and baggage. It is a true life portrayal of an immigrants struggles and experiences, full of fresh humor and funny incidents. It will prove a big hit on the program arranged by the Orpheo theatre for today.

NEW TARIFF WILL HELP PINE BLUFF City Likely to Ship Fifty Additional Cars of Ice
 as Result.

An order that will be of direct benefit to Pine Bluff ice mancfact- urers, in the opinion of Commission CT w. M. Taylor of the Pine Bluff traffic bureau, is that made by the railroad commission at the Eureka Springs meting amending standard freight distance tariff No. so as to permit shippers of ice in carload quantities to load 4,000 pounds extra to each car to provide for meltage instead of using 4,000 pounds of saw dust or other preventative.
 MT. Taylor, who returned Sunday from the session of the commission at Eureka Springs, says the old tariff prevented Pine Bluff from meeting competition of cities outside the state, citing as an illustration that when car of ice was shipped from this city, 4,00O pounds of saw dust had to be put in as a prevent ative, but at Monroe, La., the shipper was allowed to put in 2,400 pounds to the ton to care for meltage. When the ice reached it's destination, the full amount ordered was on hand, but in the Pine Bluff shipment, much Of the ice had melted and the full 2,000 pounds, was not there.
 The tariff as amended, gives local shippers the right to put in an ex- tra 4,000 pounds of ice, in a car load shipment.
 Commissioner Taylor said that the new ruling would mean a great deal of business for Pine Bluff which is now going out of the state. He said this city would ice 50 more cars each year as a result.
 Commissioner Taylor says that a great deal of business was transact ed at the Eureka meeting. Fifty eight rules and regulations for the new tariff, which is to be taken up again on August 10, at Little Rock have been prepared. The rules were gone Over one at a time and proved acceptable to the railroads, commits sion and shippers.
 He said that the new tariff would be adopted at the next meeting at Little Rock and would in all proba- bility be in operation about the mid dle of September.

THREE COMPANIES ! MAKING READY TO
 SINK OIL WELLS
S. O., Producers and Pitts
 burgh Companies Wild catting Near Camden.

Camden, uly 21-The Standard Oil company has 5000 acres of land under lease in Ouachita and surrounding counties and are preparing to pros pect it thoroughly for possible oil wells.
 A few years ago two or three oil wells were started at Lester, 10 miles from here; they were never developed however, and people considered it a wildcat scheme which was soon for gotten.
 The Standard Oil company has been quietly working, however, and now have practically all the Moline com pany's land under lease, their hold ings extending from Kent up the Ouachita river. Their movements have been very quiet, even Sydney Stone, whose farm adjoins this tract, and who acted as guide to the ad- vance guard of the oil company's workers, watched them measure the ground and drive stakes without be- ing able to learn why it was being done. Their tents have been erected at Pine Lake near the Moline camp, lumber was procured from Malvern, and one derrick is up, ready for the Slrillers, who arrived today to begin work.
 The Standard Oil people are not the only capitalists in the field. The Pittsburgh oil company has a lease on about 1000 acres and the Produc- ers' Oil company of Shreveport has a man here looking up options on Co,,o ,,rn,nicinu O tnrritnrv
 Every one knows these capitalists do not go into thing blindly nor sink their money in any project of which they are not pretty sure, so the residents of this part of the state and Camden in particular, which will undoubtedly be the oil companies headquarters, are confident that the activities of these concerns will de- velop oil industries which will mean much to this section of the state.

DOOM OF CHICKENS

with the chickens seems definitely
doomed as a New York institution
The latter half Of the custom is about
to he thrown into the discard, at least,
because if the Department Of Health
has its way there will soon be no
chickens to get up with.
There Is no assurance that New
Workers will retire earlier on that ac-
count. hut. once retired, not the cackle
of the hen nor the crow OF the rooster
will arouse them. The nearest rooster
will be a minimum of seventy-fve feet
distant-seyenty-fye feet as the crow
sounds.
The reason is that the Department of
Health approved an amendment to the
Sanitary Code yesterday, and it is ex-
tremely likely to become law. 1t re-
cites that no New Workers shall main
tain chickens unless Maryland style,

saying that no New Yorker shall main

tions under which small manufactdr-
ers will be encouraged to enter for
eign trade was recognized in the ap-
pointment of committee on this sub
iect. In accordance with the resolu-
ton creating the council a committee

Washington, Sept. is. - Secretary
BRYAN announced to-day that Ambas-
sador Morgenthau at Consta- tinople
had been instructed to protest to the
Turkish government against abroga-
tion of the capitulations.
The following statement issued by
Mr.. Bryan is a paraphrasc OF the
cablegram sent to Ambassador Nor
genthau:
"You will bring to the attention OF
the Ottoman government that the gov
eminent of the United States does
not acduicscc in the endeavor Of the
imperial government to set aside the
capitulationS.
Furthermore, this government does
not recognize that the Ottoman gov
eminent has a right to abrogate the
Capitulations, or that its action to this
end being unilateral can have any ef-
feet upon the rights ana privileges
enioyed under the capitulatory con-
ventions.
you will further state that the
United States reserves for the present
the discussion Of the grounds upon
which its refusal to acquicsce IN the
action of the Ottoman government Is
based, and also reserves the right to
make further representations IN this
matter at later date

citation, who called at the White House

peace in Europe, which had been start
ed by the federation Of British and

veyed to President Wilson by Mr..
Mott, who will go abroad soon to en-
list support for the cause of peace.
II was Mr.. Motifs wish that President
Wilson designate him as a peace en-
voy in Europe, but the President was
not disposed TO take such action.
Turkey is modifying the largest
army in its history and the mission
