SPECIAL CIRCUS BY CHILDREN
AT CHAUTAUQUA SATURDAY

A very interesting development, in
tancing how much solid benefit the
.own is deriving from the Ch~autauqua,
occurred at a called meeting of a few
OF our citizens interested in the well
fare of children, held at the Chamber
of Commerce this morning. Miss Hig-
bee, who has charge Of the Children's
Chautauqua, gave some most interest
ing information about children's play
ground projects in the East, and how
they could be applied in Tucumcari.
Perhaps the most extraordinary infor-
nation of all consisted in a piece of
delightfully."- good news. Miss Higbee
in behalf of the C~hautauqua, has most
generously decided to turn over all
proceeds of the wonderful Children's
Circus next Saturday to a Committee
of Trustees and advisors, who shall
use such fund solely for the benefit of
Tucumcari children in a playground
and recreation project in keeping with

VARSITY REMOVAL
 BILL UNDER FIRE

Special to the Log Cabin Democrat.
 Little Rock, Feb. 21.-Contrary to the expectations of its proponents, the bill to move the University of Arkan- sas from Fayetteville survived today when a motion to indefinitely postpone an amendment affecting it failed to pass the senate, Is to 1T. The amend ment was to submit the removal prop osition to vote of the people. If it had been indefinitely postponed the bill would have been killed. The amendment was then adopted, F to 16.
 During the argument Senator Alex ander charged that Governor Brough has been endeavoring to pledge sena- tors against the bill, stating that 23 senators had been reported pledged. The vote today was great surprise to those favoring the removal of the institution to Pulaski county, which proposes to form an improvement dis trict and raise $1 100000 for the pur- pose.
