SEGREGATION IS
BEFORE COURTS
ATLANTA ORDINANCE SEPARAT.
ING NEGROES AND WHITES
TESTED.

ATLANTA. July 27.-Can the city
of Atlanta prevent white residence
sections from being over-run with ne
grOes?
Again this question is before the
courts.
Already 1t has been yariOusly decid-
ed in the cases of Baltimore. Louis
vile. Birmingham and other southern
cities.
Now its to be decided again.
When Atlanta's first segregation or
dinance was held by the state SUI
preme court to be unconstitutional
and null and void, the city council
passed a second ordinance prepared
by the city attorney in conformity
with the supreme courts decision.
Now the test has come. A negro
living on Myrtle street, a high-class
north side residential thoroughfare,
has been ordered by the police to
move. Refusing, he was arraigned
before the recorder and given ten days
to move. Again refusing, the police
have been blocked by an order of
court restraining them from interior
ence with the negro until the courts
have passed upon the constitutionality
and validity of the citys second or
dinance.
The negro made one concession,
and only one. He nailed up the front
door of his house fronting Myrtle
street and used the back door facing
another street. He claims this brings
him within the ordinance. since he
has placed his number plate over the
back door and published the back door
address as his true and correct place

BEST THEATRE.

Today-Enda Goodrich, the beauti-
full star of the Oliver Morosco Photo
play company, will be seen in her lat
est photoplay. Its entitled 1.-THE
House of Lies" and presents most
unusual story in a highly interesting
way. A stepmoth, cold and calculat-
ing, uses her dead husbands insur-
ance money to create market for
the beauty and charm of daughter
and step-daughter. Edna Goodrich,
as The p-daughter, furnishes an ex-
auisite characterization as the girl
who reveres decency and intelligence
above luxury and pretty clothing.
Her charming personality is reflected
in some of it's most alluring phases,
particularly when she purposely mars
her own beauty that her market value
may be ruined. The story is strong
with dramatic tensity and a most
surprising finale, and furnishes Miss
Goodrich vehicle which will deligh
everyone.

Campbell SHOWS
= DECLARED BEST
CARNIVAL HERE:
High Glass Attractions with
Big Company Opening
Here Last Night.

The II. w. Campbell United Shows
arrived in Pine Bluff yesterday, on
special train of 40 cars, and opened
last night an engagement Of a week,
at the show grounds, in Main street
and Tenth avenue.
Not in a. number of years has there
been so big carnival, nor one of such
high class, as the Campbell shows.
This was admitted generally yestel-
day afternoon and evening, after hun
dreds of persons had seen the tented
city and heard the big band which
is directed by Prof. Fink. After the
entertainment last night, the opin-
! ion was freely expressed that the
show is the equal Of any that has ever
| been here, and the superior to most
of the organizations of it's kind that
have ever visited Pine Bluff.
The Campbell shows are among the
best known carnival attractions in
| the entire country, ranking with me
| ton three or four. The attraction
carries it's own big wagons and teams,
are followed by the big circus organ
are followed by the big circus organ
izations, and as result, there Is
that system which allows the central
management to know at all times
| what is being done by any of the
Twenty or more different attractions,
and also allows the head of the ag-
| gregation to give the guarantee thai
the shows are absolutely clean, moral
and without any Objectionable feature
whatever.
A big feature of the show is the
monkey speedway, something abso'
| lutely new in this section. "A NINA
ture reproduction of the Indianapolis
speedway is shown, with monkeys
driving high geared autos in the
death daring race. The attraction
was the big hit last night. Most o
the attractions with the campbell
shows were obtained direct from tn
Panama-Pacifc exposition at San
Franisco, and Fink's big band, which

1t has been many a season since the
farmers of Georgia have had their in
