Artillery In the Bible.

Did you know that several kinds OF
artillery are mentioned in the Bible?
Most of the machinery mentioned in
the Old Testament is a sort of cannon,
intended for siege. During the reign
of Uzziah, engines, invented by cum
ming men, were put on the towers and
upon the bulwarks to shoot arrows
and great stones I'll Chronicles 26:1).
In his great prophecy, Ezekiel fore
told that battering rams would be set
up against the walls of Jesusalen
Ezekiel 4:2; 21:22). Jeremiah or
dered the children of Benjamin to
pour out the engine OF shot" against
Jerusalem (Jer 6:6). Ezekiel also
prophesied that Nebuchadnezzar
would pour out the engine OF shot and
would set up engines OF war against
the walls OF Jerusalem Ezekiel 26:s).

finds FOREIGN-BORN
MAKING fine FARMERS
Mrs. Lucy Critz Enthusiastic Over
Gardens of New GascOny and Lee

Mrs. Lucy Crtz, canning and DEM
onstration club agent for Jefferson
county, spent yesterday at Double
Wells, where there are quite a num-
Der of members of both the canning
and the demonstration clubs.
Today Mrs. Crtz will go to Lee
Springs, where there is Bohemian
settlement of considerable size, and
where the girls and women are said
to be eager for instruction in canning
and home work.
As is the case at New Gascony
these foreign born residents are ex-
pert farmers, but they are ignorant
in great degree on canning methods.
These they are anxious to learn.
Their gardens are already very we'll
advanced, Mrs. Critz being particu-
larlv enthusiastic ABOUT the condition

where the Italians have made won.

Through Secretary Bloom of the
chamber of commerce, and other
friends of the canning club girls. all
the canned products not consumed
at the homes of the girls will be
purchased by Pine Bluff consumers
said Mrs. Critz, "but there has been
no arrangement perfected whereby
the farm products of the fathers ant
brothers of the girls can be market
ed. If all this stuff is canned, there
will be great excess of canned
products, more than can be market

much stuff is being imported from
other states for sale by Pine Bluff

TO GRADE Streets and
Walks BEFORE PAVING
Commissioners Of Cypress Street bis
trict Reach Agreement with the
City Authorities.

John W. Graves, A. V. Chavis and
r. f. McAllister, commissioners for
the Cypress street sidewalk district,
Mayor Simon Bloom and Alderman
Jos. A. Clement, chairman OF the
committee of public works, follow
ing which it was stated that agree
ment had been reached as to the
grading of the street and sidewalks,
prior to the laying of the new con-
crete sidewalks.
The laying of the sidewalks is ex-
pected now to be completed within
a comparatively short time. The fight
for the organization has been of con-
siderable length, and, as matter or
fact, considerable number OF the
property owners are still opposed to
the organization of the district. At
torney Creed Caldwell, who attended
Mondays meeting of the city council,
stated that there were many property
owners who would prefer to contract
individually for the building of their
sidewalks, and would be willing for
sidewalk notices to be issued against
them, in preference to getting into
the district Some of the protesting
property owners believe they are in
the majority. but it is said to be too
late now for them TO make objection,
as they slept on their rights when
they were not present to make their
objections at the hearing conducted
in May by the council. as the law re-
quires.
The work of the district will in
volve an expenditure of approximate
ly $3,500 roughly estimated, and the
sidewalks will extend on Cypress
street from Sixth avenue to Thir-
teenth avenue The street itself will
be put to grade, and the cross streets
at the intersection with Cypress will
also be graded where necessary.
When the sidewalks are laid, Cypress
will be the first street west of Lin
den to possess sidewalks, Just as it
is the first street west of Linden
which is open from Sixth to Thir-
tenth and beyond. Cypress street is
seven blocks farther west than Linz
den street.

ORPHEO THEATRE.

Today-"Green Stockings" Green
stockings are a drug on the market
Of England. The manufacturers that
are unwise enough to dye their wares
that color soon find that there is
practically no sale for that commodi-
ty. The reason for this is the old
English superstition that the eldest
daughter of a family must wear greer
stockings at the wedding of a
younger sister, and thus admit thai
she is husband-proof. No one in Eng
land wants to enter spinsterdom in
so ostentatious manner, so no girl
desires to have green stockings among
her articles of wearing apparel. This
superstition forms the comedy ele.

strong one and has a, splendid moral,
although the lesson is SO we'll dis
guised in the unfolding of the inter-

the presence of a moral is never sus-

the play was Tainted Money which

a masterpiece of masterpieces. Ger

After viewing this wonderful pic

big step forward that the women have
made in our civilization. During the
period of which the story was writ

husband, the man was absolute lori

to do his bidding at any and all
