Robinson Circus
 Will Be Here Monday

A real three-ringed circus is com ing to town, wit hWise lions and tigers, trained leopards, jaguars, po- lar bears, seals and even camels w. ing as acrobats with human stars and troops of clamor let loose be- tween the thrills.
 The Yankee Robinson wild animal circus, which is coming to Pine Bluff on Monday, November 3, is huge and grand and new enough to warrant the very highest of praise.
 Every one will laugh at the caper- ing clowns, gasp at the feature acts and shudder at the sensations crowd- ed together into two hours and a half.
 The biggest and most daring of the wild animal acts is the perform ance of Captain Jules with his mix ed group of natural born jungle ene- mics including lions, tigers, jaguars, pumas and hyenas, less spectacular, maybe but almost as sensation are the trained camels and zebras-Just to add good measure to the pei formance it is interspersed With a score or more of high class stars of the arsenic world.
 Of course there are clowns and 30 of them will surely make you laugh if you have one stored away in you. An athletic carnival is one of the seasons big features and it is headed by no less parsonage than young Hackenschmidt, worlds champion middleweight wrestler, who will meet all corners at each perform ance forfeiting $100 to any man he cannot win fall from in 15 minutes.
 Altogether the wonderful program presented under the "big top" of the Yankee Robinson circus will give boundless pleasure to big and small.

Br0ugh Recommends
 Arkansas State Fair

Little Rock, Oct. Ex-Governor Brough returned yesterday from g tour during which he made number of speeches. He addressed 10000 people at the Louisiana state fair at Shreveport on the league of nations, commenting it as the only effective instrument to prevent future wars.
 "The Louisiana state fair is a wonderful advertising medium of the State of Louisiana" said the gover- nor, "and Arkansas should emulate the example of her sister state in arranging for a similar fair to be held at the capital each year.
 "Last year Louisiana appropriated for its agricultural college $351 900, while Arkansas appropriated $434,- 900.
 "I was told by expert oil investors and geologists that the anti-cline which indicates the presence of oil stretches from the Caddo and Clai- borne fields in Louisiana through Columbia and other Arkansas coun- ties, and that it is the prevalent op- inion in Louisiana that oil must be found in paying quantities in ! number of the Southern Arkansas counties.

NEGROES ARE CAUGHT ATTEMPTING 10 FUN
 WHIsKEY BLOCKADE
Rings, Liquor and Pistol Figure in Case Involving Two
 Men.

After smiling upon them for some time, the goddess of chance sudden lv frowned upon George Rainey and Lonnie Roseby, two Little Rock ne- groes, and now they are in the tolls of the law.
 Rainey and Roseby made visit to Monroe. La. They filled two grips with whiskey and started the return journey to the Arkansas capital, rld- ine on Missouri. Pacific train No, 1O4, which passed here yesterday morning at o'clock. Chance was still smiling upon them when the train reached Pine Bluff, but here the smile departed. It was when Constable Ben Brannon and City De- tective c. c. Lynn boarded the train to attend federal court at Little Rock. The frown didn't come until the train was about to roll outside of Jefferson county. Just before Pulaski was reached, the Pine Bluff officers nabbed the contraband-load' ed suitcases, together with the own CTS.
 But that wasn't the end. Not a. tall. Scowl followed frown. and halIley was ueleCJeu SuIlSpCiliouciJ passing several rings to pr. West a colored practitioner who embark ed at Farrell.

In municipal court he was asked by the judge: Were you carrying this gur to protect yourself while calling up on patients, or were you carving it to protect yourself in Little Rock v Dr. West hesitated. and guessed. He guessed wrong. "I was carrying it to protect myself in Little Rock : "I thought so," remarked the judge "It'll be $1OO." West returned or the same train with the constable and detective last night, and informed them that later he had explained pos session of the weapon to the judge

Stiff Workouts Put
 Drive Into Work of
 High School Eleven

A series of new plays, tackling dummy, lot of charging exercises and the cool weather of yesterday provided the material for one of the hardest workouts of the season for the high school football and squad, and at the end of the practice, which lasted until nearly dark, Coach Bas- sett gave his squad tip that the hardest work was to come. "This has been hard day." he said, "but it has been mild in comparison to what is coming"
 With several assistants on the job daily, each man is receiving more individual coaching, and with the several weeks which intervene be- tween now and the Little Rock game to provide ample opportunity for coaching and practice in blockingt tackling and cutting, it is predicted that Coach Quigley's Tigers are go- ing to experience more than one uncomfortable moment.
 Following workout at tackling and cutting at the dummy, a brisk signal practice was had, after which the scrubs and the varsity lined up for scrimmage. New plays were practiced, while old ones were per fected, and at the conclusion of the practice, Coach Bassett stated the two teams had played the best scrim- mage game yet.
 The work of the varsity backfield showed considerable improvement. Sorrells, Boone, Collins and Lindsay providing a punch which the scrub forwards found impossible to stop. The work of the varsity line, and particularly the work of Harper at right tackle, showed some improve ment.
 Not desirous of working his men up to too high pitch this early in the season, Coach Bassett expects to have the hardest hitting team in the state when the locals meet Little Rock. Every particle of training is now resolving itself down to an attempt to put more smash and drive in the backfield and line. Offen- sively and defensively, the coach is building up a machine of hard hit 'ters. The tackling is becoming tru- er-and harder. The cutting is be- coming more vicious; the blocking more savage.

and that the fine of S1O0 had been re- mitted.
 Rainey and Roseby furnished bond of $500 each to appear for trial here on November ), on charges of trans porting liquor. The Little Rock municipal judge fixed and approved the bonds. Roseby was released, but Detective Lynn brought Rainey to Pine Bluff, and will file a grand larceny charge against him because of the rings.
 The case in which the officials had been summoned to Little Rock was that of Curley Washington, charged with selling liquor. Curley was arrested here last year by MT. Brannon and Mr. Lynn. His case was continued until November 12, because of the absence of his attorney H. Kemp Toney, who was trying the Sam Payne case in court here.
 Little Rock officials informed the Pine Bluffians that Roseby is a regu- lar blockade runner; that he has been arrested six times for transporting liquor, and that he was the first ne- gro in Pulaski county to be caught violating the bone dry law.
 Chance possibly laughed last night because of the joke played on the trio. But there was no laughing in the cell where Rainey was confined.
