HOROSCOPE.
THE stars incline. but do not compel.

Saturday. July 81, 1918.
Copyright. IslsJ
Saturn rules this day with evil power.
according to the reading of astrology.
Although the Sun is in a fairly favor
able aspect and Uranus is friendly. eau
ton should be the guide.
Old persons should be especially care
full while this configuration prevails. The
death of a man of prominence will AFFECT
a leading stock early in the next month.
Night workers should conserve their
strength. There is a prophecy Of long
vigils and serious anxiety in many voca-
lions where labor continues after sun
down.
1t is not an suspicious time for jour-
neys. especially those that have COM
mercial gain as their object.
Those who contemplate business OF
professional ventures should delay all
initiative. Events of unexpected impor-
lance may affect this country and few
weeks of depression are prognosticated.
As the aspect is held to be conducive
to physical indisposition the health
should be safeguarded. Weather of ex-
IRENE heat and quick changes will breed
illness and the autumn may be marked
by an epidemic Of fever.
While the stars presage many human
woes there Is promise or prosperity for
persons in numerous vacations. For.
tunes will pile up for the few. but work
ers will benefit.
Uranus continues to foreshadow a
widespread awakening to spiritual influ-

WISDOM FOR THE SUMMER
VISITOR.

! It is not always easy to be sure of
having pleasant vacation. And for that
reason every effort should be made, in
the first place. to choose the right place
for the vacation.

know that you will find them eongenial
and that they will enjoy having you, visit
them. for such a vacation can be made

guests and hosts. But II you need a

your own pleasure, don't visit friends
For visit requires exertion on the part
Of guests as we'll as hosts. And IL you

quiet hotel, even a sanatorium. will prove
far better than friends house.
If you decide to spend your vacation
In some seaside or mountain or country
resort. choose 1t with care. And, latter
you have chosen it irrevocably. decide to
enjoy yourself. Probably there will be
other guests at the hotel whom you will
not like. Surely there will be some
dishes on the menu that will not ap-
peal to you Even the scenery may not
come up to your expectations. But II
you wish to have your vacation a benefit
and pleasure make up your mind not to
criticise.
1t is always well to choose a place a
little less expensive than the most ex-
pensive you could afford to visit. This
will leave a little surplus in your pocket
book. and with it you can make UP for
defects-in chance acquaintance, menu
or scenery. If you have this extra
money you can afford to go to some near
by place famed for its cooking for supper:
you can afford to take a trip by boat or
train to a nearby place Of interest: you
can afford an automobile trip or a horse
back ride. or you can afford to rent a
canoe or rowboat for a week or a day.
perhaps. At all events you will feel that
you can indulge in some little extrava-
gances without really overstepping your
holiday allowance.

WANTS PROHIBlTIVE LAW

A. M Leitzell, for the Frisco rail- way, sent in communication to the City Council Tuesday night asking that body to pass an ordinance keep ing all hotel runners, real estate men, livery men, draymen and solicitors of any description entirely off the de pot platform. The Frisco gave as their reasons that so many fights have occurred there in the past, that the above named crowd up 10 the car doors, interfere with passengers, get ting on and off the trains, and are nuisance generally. The Council did not pass favorably on the ordinance feature, feeling that the Frisco plat form and station is private property of the railway company and that they would be infringing to pass such law. The council proposes to let the railway company establish sta tions for the different visitors at the trains, such as is done in other towns and cities, and then the city furnish police protection to the rail- way company in carrying out their instructions

 The hearing of Lin Henson, Wal ter Scott and others connected with the affair is set for Monday, Janu- ary 25th. By some peculiar means some of the preliminary hearings will be held at Fayetteville, while others will be in Springdale Much comment has been made as to the reasons for taking the cases to Fayetteville, when they properly should have been heard here, and there will probably be some difficulty in getting all the witnesses and principals to report at Fayetteville for the hearing, some of those direct ly interested expressing a desire to have the cases tried in Springdale township, where the fight occurred,

NEW SIDEWALK REGULATIONS

The new law will be modeled after one used in a northern city, and will make eontrac- tors and sidewalk builders put down all walks in the city, as well as street crossings, in the proper man ner This ordinance was called for, owing to the fact that some Of the walks recently put down in the city, and street crossings too, are worth less, and will not stand ordinary wear. Walks and street crossings of this character are detriment 70 the town, and the property owner, and will be ordered destroyed or remeded as soon as the Council can make the necessary orders.

LOCAL LIGHT PLANT
 MAKES PROPOSITION TO
 GIVE 24.HOUR SERVICE

The News has always been a booster for electric lights for Spring dale, and now The News wants to boost for 24-hour light and power service from our local plant
 Todd Brothers state that they cannot run the plant with less than a service of 15-horse power, and run 1t continuous. There is in use in Springdale now, only three or four small motors; one large 6-horse power motor being used at the City Meat Market, but current is fur nished this motor ="on call.
 What The News wants and would like to have is a continuous electric service every day and night, except from a. m. to D. m. on Sunday The owners of the local plant will give this service if enough more mo- tors can be installed to amount to 15-horse power. It is necessary to have this amount before the plant can operate except at loss. The News is willing to install a 3-horse motor; Marion Wright, at the shoe shop a 2-horse, and Peoples Meat Market l 12 horse; this leaves S12 horse power to be taken Up by other parties. What are the people of Spfingdale willing to do .to- secure all day and night serpiee2 The pow CT rate given by the local plant is lower than the rate at Fayetteville, and motors can be bought in any horse power from one=thirtieth up The local plant is willing 10 run for thirty days, giving tWenty=foar hour service, as a trial means Of finding out what Springdale folks want; but they are willing to run 24-hours straight service henceferth and al ways if a 15 horse motor service can be secured.

ECONOMY IS THE WATCH WORD OF THE PRESENT
 CITY LAW MAKERS

The present City Council Is on the watch the treasury order, and is not going to allow any more of the funds of the city to be expended than necessary. At the meeting Tues day night, considerable discussion was had relative to dropping the us- ual monthly amoun- of St0 allowed the Cemetery Ass ociation, and for a short time it appeared as if the council would not allow this amount in the future. The action of the council along this line was not caused by any desire 10 hamper the Cemetery Association in their work, nor to appear nninterested in the good work that is now being car ried on by the ladies of the Ceme- tery Association. It was case of where the city dads thought the Cemetery Association had more mon- ey in their treasury than the City. The account was allowed pending an investigation Of the surplus now on hand by the Association, and if found that there is enough funds on hand to carry on the work without 'tstinting" the Association, the amount will not be allowed until further needed. The 5 per month that has been allowed for the w. c. T. U. Rest Room, just recently op- ened was disalloWed by the Council, and no further sums will be allowed from the City for the maintenance of the room. It was the opinion of a majority of the members of the Council that the rest room is be- ing used by private parties than by the public at large.

MUST KEEP FRISCO MAIL
 WAGON OFF SIDEWALKS

Considerable discussion was had at the meeting of the council Tuesday night over the use of the sidewalks on Emma Avenue, by the Frisco railroad, in carrying the mail from the depot to the postoffice It has been the practice of the boys working at the station to use a tWo-Wheeled cart, in bringing the mall over, when the amount is more than can be car ried on ones shoulder. At other times one of the local drays is used. Mr. Rupple contends that the heavy cart running over the sidewalks damages them to a certain extent, while other members de net hold the same view It was the consensus of opinion of the majority Of the mem- bers of tbe council that the cart should not be allowed on the north side Of the street at any time, but in bad snowy weather, when the main street was in poor condition, that the mail might be carried down the south side without overt damage. The matter was finally left in the hands of Mayor Lane, who will either enforce the ordinance now covering this particular case, or will affect a compromise with the railway peo- pfp

ALI NIGHT LIGHT SERVICE

Springdale will have an all-night street lighting service. This =was made possible through the action of the City Council Tuesday night when they voted to allow a=25 percent increase on the present lighting bill Of the city Todd Brothers pres ented a proposition to the council, where by they are to operate their plant, and keep the street lights on all night, starting from one hour after sunset, and running until one hour before surise. This guarantees for Springdale lights throughout the en- tire night, and gives feature that has been needed for some time. The council also ordered in five new street lights, placed at different parts of the city, and took over the two lights on Holcomb street, that have been paid for by private prop erty owners on the street for the past few months. The light eom- pany is extending their lines one eighth of a mile farther east on En- ma Avenue, and the council ordered two of the new lights to be placed in that district The light company has also donated two extra lights for the use of the fire department, at +l,air ba1l
