PENSIONERS MUST
 FILE AFFIDAVITS

County Clerk c. M. Nchol is anxi- ous that all entitled to participate in the Arkansas Confederate pension fund shall do so, and urges those who are interested in the welfare of these old soldiers or their widows to ascertain if they have compiled with the law requiring the l.ensioner to make affidavit as to his or her eligi- bility. Under new law. the pen sioner must file an affidavit each year in order to be eligible to partl- cipate in the distribution of the fund for the year.
 It is evident that a misunderstood ing exists on the part of many con- corning the law. They evidently be- lieve that it is necessary to file af- fdavit only once; whereas the law requires that the pensioner file af- fidavit each year.
 Tlirty-four persons who have par ticipated in the fund in the past have not yet filed affidavit this year.
 Those are: J. c. Andrews, Sarah F. Barnett, Rebecca D. Berry. Ada A. Blackwell, Wm. Bishop. Jas N. Bailey, J. T. Bridwell, Rebecca A. Bradford Mrs. s. J. Clayton, F. M. Cox, Tennie Culpeppe-, Rachel Cearley. Mrs. M. A Eaton, T. H. Fort, Jno. Gober, Eliza beth Hopkins, Sarah A. Jones, Harriet A. E. Lemon, Julia Matthews, Taylor Miller, s. E. H. w. McMillan, Randy Nixon, Jno. w. Ohlman, J. A. Phillips, J. s. Peebles, Allison T. Pless. Vic toria Stephens, Pattie Tate. J. P. Tucker. Della Ann Woodell, Thomas s West, Fannie J. Vance. J. M Town send, Mrs. F. E. Davis
 Unless the affidavits are filed with ir two weeks, the law will not per- init them to participate in the dis 1t. ibmtion of the pension fund this year.

BEST THEATER.

Today-"Pasquale," the Morosco Photoplay company's new production that stars George Behan, the great portrayer of Italian characters, is the composition of MT. Beban in collabora ton with Lawrence McCloskey.
 The picture-play shows Pasquale as a quaint, honest, endeavoring small grocer, into whose life at a very crit ical time the shadow of the great war casts it's ominous influence. The pa thetic appeal of his rendering so stirs that, to the relief of his final happi- ness, all the range of the emotions is played.
 Laughter, tears, arrangement and suffering, hilarity and joyousness, happiness and tragedy are wonderful ly and fascinatingly blended to make a masterpiece of this very unusual film story.

Armed with full power to call a
strike tieing up 25O,OOO miles Of
railroads the union heads will dis
cuss the questions involved with
the railway officials but will not
consent to calling in an interme-
diary.
This notice was served on railway
managers by A. b. Garretson, head
OF the conductors brotherhood.
This brought the situation between
the employees and employers to a
deadlock within an hour after
the first scheduled conference for
today was called.
Elisha Lee. spokesman for the
railway managers, declared that the
roads would insist on mediation.
and the union representatives de-
cla,eti that they will not consent to
an intermediary.
Members of the federal mediation
and conciliation are now here, but
J the brotherhoods say they have no
desire to see them.
With the conference deadlocked
the meeting broke up and the rail-
way managers set out i'm search OF
the government mediators. The
brotherhood officials went into ex-
ecutiye session.
Lee formally invited the United
States board to offer its good offices
in an effort to reach satisfactory
settlement shortly before noon.
The members, who are here at the
request of President Wilson, met to
frame letter to be presented to
the employees and employers ask
ing that the demands be submitted
to the board.
Chas. W. Knapp, chairman of the
board, said this afternoon that a
meeting OF the representatives of
the employees and employers would
be called for this evening. Garrett
son said he would meet with the
board. but he was not willing to join
the employers in asking for the
services Of the mediatofs.
