NEW UNIVERSITY

The 1917 legislature has pro- duced a crisis in the affairs of the University of Arkansas which makes it about as com fortable for the loyal Arkansan, as having two friends contest for an office. The bid of the citizens of Little Rock and Pulaski county, to be the home of a new University, draws the lines tight between Little Rock and Fayetteville, and it is prob able that there will be final settlement of the matter i'll this session.
 The citizens of Little Rock have caused to be introduced in the Senate a bill organizing Pulaski county into an improve ment district to give at least S1,O0O,0O0 to the State for the erection of a modern institution in Little Rock. In addition to

SUNDAY BASEBALL

A Sunday baseball bill which will affect only two counties of the state, Pulaski and Sebastian, is due to make it's appearance in the House this week. It is claim ed by those advocating the measure that 46 members of the House, and a majority of the Senate, will support the bill.
 This bill is different from those previously submitted in that it permits the cities in these counties to vote on the matter, and the hours Sunday ball may be played will also be specified so that there can be no interference with religious services.

NEWS AND NOTES OF
 THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY
(By Clio 5Harper)
PUBLICITY ACT

There is pending in the Gener- al Assembly a bill to cause the newspapers to bid for the right to advertise measures submitted to the voters under the Initiative and Referendum. On the face of it, this bill sounds like a panacea of all advertising ills.
 While the bill may save to the voters of Arkansas considerable money in advertising, it will probably cost several times as much in senseless legislation. Newspaper men have not been consulted the measure, or they would have pointed out the weaknesses thereof.
 Under this bill it is possible for the newspaper in the rural community of a county to under bid the paper with the circula- tion of the county. The sue cessful bidder may have only a hundred or so subscribers, while the largest paper will have several thousand. The bid of the small paper, with the circula- tions compared, will make the small paper advertising cost many times what it would in the larger one, and still but few people in the county see it.

MULES CASE TAKES
 COURTS TIME
Maud" and Her Value, Is Im- portant Case In Circuit Court Saturday and Today. Case Is Being Tried For Second Time.

The case of R. H. Wilson vs. H. w. Orr, citizens of Montgom- cry township, and on which the price and value of a mule is the important question, is being tried in the circuit court for the second time. The trial of the case began Saturday, and up to the hour of going to press, the jury had not reached a verdict. Sometime last Feb., Orr sold to Wilson, a mule, which MT Will which Wilson, was not worth, the price paid, and a suit was entered, for the difference that he had paid for the mule, and what he received for it. The suit was first tried in justice peace court in Montgomery township, and was appealed to Circuit Cot. 1t was tried at the July term of court, and re- suited in a hung jury
 The Grand Jury is still in ses- sion, but had made no further report to the Court today. It is thought, they will complete their work by tomorrow evening.
 Several railroad suits are set for this week, and it is thought the work of the Court will be completed by Saturday night.

 NEGRO MINISTRIES
 PLEASING CROWDS

(From Muamduke (Mo.) Mes senger.)
 Harry Young's negro min strels have been with us all the week, showing nightly to large and well pleased audiences. Composed as it is of a race of people that are known for their quaint ways and natural love of music, they give an entertain ment replete with the pathos of their nature. Quaint sayings and queer antics furnish amusement throughout the performance. An old joke is clothed with a new vestment, and you lose sight of it's age in the telling. The sing ing is good, of the honey kind, and the dancing is of the kind that only the negro can portray. Clean-cut and free from any suggestions, it is show that can be enjoyed by all. They will be here the balance of the week, closing the engagement Saturday night.

this, the citizens of Pulaski county pledge themselves to see that the present university is maintained, as branch institu- ton.
 Little Rock does not desire to cripple Fayetteville, but it does want to build up the University of Arkansas. The commission appointed to negotiate for the erection of the University, is composed of Little Rocks lead- ing bankers. They are fair deal- | ing men, as we'll as men who have the finances to swing any thing they go after. The com missioners will probably meet with citizens from Fayetteville, and if possible, make some agreement with them before go- ing the limit in the organization of the district.

THIEVES ENTER
 TWO PLACES
The Fair and Shuffield's Restau- rant Entered Last Night. Two Negroes Arrested. One Has Confessed.

A good haul was made by theives last night, operating on Main street, when they entered the Fair Store and J. H. Shuf- fields restaurant, and secured about $23 in money, two boys suits of clothes, and three pairs of shoes.
 Night marshal Billy Rober- son and Ed Gray Thrasher, this morning about II o'clock arrest ed two negro boys, about IA and 13 years old, who gave their names as John Bishop and Isaac Green. According to MT. Roberson, the Bishop boy has ad- mitted breaking into the Fair store. They were arrested near the negro school.
 At the Fair store, the en- trance was made by reaching through a broken window pane, at a rear window, and unlock ing the window. MT. Harrison, manager of the Fair store, states that while he has not made a through examination, all that is missed so far, is two boys suits of clothes, and two pairs of mems shoes, and three dollars, which was taken out of the cash register.
 At the Shuffield restaurant, the entrance was made at a rear door, by prizing the same open, with some instrument. $20 was removed from the cash register, and nothing else was mo1ested, The robbery was discovered this morning, when he opened the restaurant for business.
 The report that the store of c. A. Chamberlain&Co. was among those entered, was an error, as MT. Park Chamberlain states, that so far as can be ascertained, no effort was made to enter his place of business.
 No time has been set for hearing of the boys arrested.
 It has been stated by many citizens, that the street lights were not burning last night.
