which was equivalent to the miracle
of raising one from the grave.
Pauls plea was for the Roman as
well as the Jew. Considering his per
sonal testimony, he declares that he
is a true Jew of the strictest sect wv.
4-8), and as such he lived in the
hope of the promise" as predicted by
Isaiah and Daniel. That promise has

Paul adds, II have seer him, for

himself, was once a jealous perse-
cutor of the Christians, more so than
those who are now prosecuting him,
being exceedingly mad against
them" He then relates his Damascus
journey and the conversation held on
the road with the risen Lord.
The gospel Paul preached was to
lead men into the kingdom of God
that they might receive forgiveness
of sins and an inheritance among
those who were fitted for that inheri-
lance, who were the sanctified. For
this cause the Jews went about to kill
him.
Five ways are suggested as to the
reception of PauI's message. The
high priests way was to hate him and
oppose. Felix's way was Ego thy way

way wv. 24-26) was to charge Paul
with madness. Much learning (literal-
ly, many writings) was turning him
mad, making him a ~lunatic, a dreamer,
one who lived in the atmosphere of
wild im%aginings. Paul's reply was
harsh. "Most noble Festus" Cam.

Height of Meteors,

Meteors, or shooting stars, are small solid bodies that fall through space, become incandescent in the at- mosphere of the earth, and usually dis appear in the form of gas or dust. If two observers stationed several miles apart see the same shooting star and note the point in the sky where it ap- peared they can construct a hypo- thetical triangle, the apex of which is the point of appearance Of the meteor, and thus obtain the approximate height of the shooting star when it first became visible. For long period of years, it appears, German observer employed this method of estimating the height of shooting stars. From careful observations of no less than lO2 meteors he found that the mean height at which shooting stars first be- come visible is 81 miles. The mean height of the point at which they dis appear is about 59 miles, and the av- craze length of their visible path 45 miles.

ALDERMAN PASS ROMANCE THEY
 DO NOT APPROVE
Think Gravel Street Only IS Feet Wide Waste of
 Money.

Excepting the railroad franchise ordinance and the occupation tax ordi- nance, mentioned elsewhere in The Graphic today, little except routine business was handled at the session of the council las. night.
 Third and final reading was had Of the ordinance forming an improve ment district, for the paving of streets in the southwestern section of the city. and the ordinance was finally passed Several members of the council expressed tho opinion that the proposed paving, with gravel for a width of eighteen feet only. woul,l be waste of monsy for the tax payers, but under the law, the ccua- cil was compelled to pass the ordi- nance forming the district.
 A communication from the East Pine Bluff Civic league was read and referred to the wa!er and lights com mittee. The league stated it had in hand money with which to erecs and install five drinking fountains. It understood the Pine Bluff company agreed, in it's contract with the city. to furnish free water for ten drink ing fountains, and that Dus six such fountains are new in operation. It asks that the company be instructed Ito furnish the water for four of its new fountains, and requests the coun- Gil to inform it Of the cost of the water for it's fifth fountain.
 There was considerable discussion and complaint of the fact that pres ent drinking Fountains are without water much of tse time. Alderman Bahlau of the water and light com mittee is looking into the matter.
 Police cash fines of $323, committed $197. total $520, were reported for the month. Pound fe:s aggregating $32.2O were collected in February. The cemetery sexton collected $169 and expended S140I0, giving an ex- ces of $2S.90.f .tf. .7fas9. ~

Don Juan in Action.

Ismail, on the Danube, is best known to us through "Don Juan" wherein Byron depicts the terrible storming of the place by Suwarrof in 1790. It cost the Russians 10000 men and the Turks 30,000, and even the Russian commander retired to his tent and wept when the victory was won. Byron's cantos are very close versi. fication of French work by the Mar quis Gabriel de Castelnau, and many of the incidents concerning Don Juan himself are taken from actual happen ings. Notable among them is Juan's saving of the ten-year-old girl from two murderous Cossacks, an act really performed by the young Due de Riche- lieu, the founder of modern Odessa Exchange.

 He Spoke Right Up.

"It is said," he remarked, reflective ly. that women's hands are growing larger" "Well?" she returned, inquir- ingly. "Yes," he asserted. And the worst of it is that there is every likeli- hood that this tendency will continue" :" "Yes?' she said, in the same inquiring tone. "Yes," he repeated. You see, driving, and golf, and tennis, and other sports that women have recently taken up are responsible for it. "In that case" she said, with a glance at her own dainty hands, you'd better speak quickly if you want 9 small one" He realized that it was the opportunity of a lifetime, and he spoke promptly.

When Napoleon Was wounde d.

Napoleon, like almost all great mili- tary leaders, was wounded in course of his military career, though once only. This was before Ratisbon, on April g, 1909. He was struck by grape. shot ball, and received a flesh wound, which disconnected him so little that he mounted his horse, wiping away the blood with handkerchief. The ball was picked up by an officer, who treasured it so highly that it passed as an heirloom to his children and grandchildren. It now rests in the Musee at Paris.

RUSSIANS HOPE WILSON
WILL NOW BE FIRMER
Believe End of Campaign Gives
Him a Freer Hand

Petrograd. Nov. 12.-The Russian
newspapers comment briefly on the re-
election of President Wilson, confining
themselves in general to the conclusion
that a more decisive foreign policy is
as much to be expected under Mr.. Will
son as il would have been under Mr..
Hughes.
The "Novoe Vremya" looks for a
more determined attitude toward sub
marine warfare "now that President
Wilson is no longer preoccupied with
the political campaign 1t adds:
american political history shows
that the President usually commits
himself to a more definite policy dur
ing his second administration. Presi-
dent Wilson will not now be bound by
considerations of political prudence,
and will show greater freedom of ac-
ton. He declared a year ago that he
would not permit piracy. He now must
show that his declaration is not mere
words"
The "Bourse Gazette" says that, since
the election depended more on internal
than international issues, the result
cannot greatly interest Europe. 1t adds:
"The American nation indorses Pres
ident Wilson's policy of peace 1t has
voted for a President who exerted all
his energy to prevent the country from
going to war, and at the same time
tried to maintain national dignity. But
recent German submarine attacks show
how difficult it is to accomplish both
of these aims. The moment will come
when America will be so full OF gold
that it will not need 20 pump more
wealth out of Europe. Perhaps by, or
before. this time President Wilson's
role Of pacifst will end"

SAYS WOMEN'S PARTY
CHECKED PEACE VOTE
Miss Paul Sees Victory Near for
Federal Amendment

Chicago. Nov. 12.-The result OF the
National Woman's Party campaign in
the equal suffrage states and the effect
OF that campaign on the national WON
an suffrage cause are discussed by Miss
Alice Paul, national chairman OF the
Congressional Union, in statement
issued here. II follows:
"Now that the election is over, we
will return at once 10 Washington TO
begin preparations for work with the
coming session OF Congress.
Both parties throughout the cam
paign devoted great effort TO trying TO
prove 10 the women voters their devo-
ton to the enfranchisement of women.
When the two great national parties
vie with each other in proclaiming their
enthusiasm for suffrage we feel as
sured that the passage of the suffrage
amendment by Congress is near az
hand.
"More than a third and nearly half
OF the total electoral vote cast In the
suffrage states went against President
Wilson. When we entered the cam
paign the middle OF August We found
the voting women lined up for Mr..
Wilson because ne kept us out Of war
We opposed that cry with the counter
plea that he kept us out OF suffrage,
and found that wherever we were able
II reach the women voters they re-
sponded 70 this appeal.
"If the Woman's Party. which was
born only last June, was able in the
few months OF its existence to keep
between a third and half Of the cleo
toral vote in suffrage states from going
to Mr.. Wilson. We have every reason to
believe that by the time the next cleo
ton comes. in 1918. il will be so power
full that no party will desire TO incur
It's hostility

Both Sides Prepare for Careful
Work To-day

San Francisco, Nov. 1.-THE Official
count of CALIFORNIA; vote in the Presi-
Dental election will begin tomorrow,
and steps have been taken not only TO
expedite the work but to insure its &C
curacy. Both the Democratic and Re-
publican State Central committees have
engaged checkers and attorneys to scru-
tinize the count of each tally sheet.
The Republican State Central Com
mittee was busy to-day getting in fig
ures on the individual votes of all
electors, in the belief, it was an
nounced, that at least some OF the Re-
publican electors might be found to
have won.
With seventeen isolated precincts
still unreported, the vote tonight
stood: Hughes, 462,s2s; Wilson, 1885,
lO6. The missing votes, it was gener-
ally believed, will not materially change
President Wilson's plurality of S,27S.
