BAR SUNDAY VISITORS

Little Rock, Feb 5.--It is an
nounced that hereafter the state
capitol will be closed to visitors on
Sunday, until after the work now
under way in the interior has been
completed, which will probably be
in the late summer. This is made
necessary by the large amount OF
scaffolding that has been erected for
the purpose of stripping the walls of
plaster which is to be replaced with
Alabama marble. The whole inter-
Tor of the building, except the Off
ces, is vast workshop, and the walls
are bare and unsightly. The walls
of the Senate and House are also
being stripped, and when the Legisla-
ture meets in January, 1915, it will
be in halls lined with white marble.
The seating arrangements in both
halls will be changed, providing
ample space for all the members,
clerks, and representatives Of the
press. Handsome marble stands will
be provided for the Speaker and the
President, and all effort will be made
to solve the acoustic difficulties
which We're SO annoying last session.

Mr.. Alciatorei also furnished me
with a report of the minimum tenn

periods mentioned. This shows that
for the moath ending January 21st
there were twenty four days in which
the minimum temperature was below

IA such days. The weather bureau

ct will thus be seen there were
three cold spells during the period
covered by the January bills, in
which the minimum temperature was
at or below freezing, while during
the period ending December 22nd.,
covered by the December bills, there
was only one period of freezing

New York, Feb 5.-Changes in
playing rules, especially regarding
'foot faults" and the proposal to be-
come identified with the International
Lawn Tennis Federation are two of
the principal topics to come before
the United States Lawn Tennis As
ISOLATION, which will hold it's annual
meeting here tomorrow. ~
The opponents to joining the Inter
national Lawn Tennis Federation have
their attitude on the organization
eligibility rules, which are much
stricter than those of the American
Association. Every big tennis coun-
try, except the United States, is now
affiliated with the International.
The International permits a player
to have his expenses paid only to
world championship tournaments
such as those at Stockholm, or the
All-Comers at Wimbledon, EnEgland.
In this country a player can have his
expenses paid to any tournament.
Some of the tennis delegates today
expressed the fear that our men
would be declared ineligible by the
International Federation if they con-
tinue to compete under our amateur
rules. The amateur rule promises to
be the centre of lively debate before
it is presented for a vote tomorrow.
President Robert D. Wrenn, of the
Association, said it was not likely the

be fashionable the pugilistic persons

medium of birthmarks, gold filleG
teeth or fondness for certain foods
and liquids.
