PICKFORD THRILLED.

Speaking of thrills,' said Mary Pickford, who will be seen at the Ideal theatre on Thursday in the celebrated comedy drama, Studs" her recent United Artists Corporation produc- tion, q though I had the thrill of my life when I took my first aeroplane flight-but that was tame in com parison to the ride I had while film ing Studs
 "I was supposed to drop into a basket of clothes and go shooting down the laundry chute, dragging the pro- proprietess of the laundry down with me. I sat down with a lot of force, madame's foot caught in the rope and away We went. The over ambitious property man had made the chute un- necessarily slippery, and the madame weighs a little under 200. Between the slippery chute and madame's great weight l went down that cute at about two miles a minute and when 1 land ed on the counter at the other side of the basement room to which the chute led, l was absolutely breathless and felt even worse than when l came out of nose dive in plane. When you see the picture watch for the in- cident and you will realize I'm not ex- aggerating the truth"

LOCAL htN ATTEND
 (. OF (. LUNCHEON

Four Conway men and six from Morrilton are in Little Rock today to attend the luncheon given by the Little Rock chamber of commerce at noon for discussion of the proposed perma- nent road between Palarm and North Little Rock, the missing link in the good roads system to connect Morril- ton, Conway and Little Rock. The Conway men at the capital are Tom Davis, president, and Senator Geogre F. Hartje, secretary of the Conway Commercial Club, Jo Frauenthal and F. F. Cleaver The Morrilton delega- tion was headed by Ed Gordon, an at torney of that city.
 An improvement district for the constrution of the Palarm and Little Rock link was formed by the legisla- ture at the same time the Faulkner and Conway county districts were formed. For some reason, the district was allowed to go dead before 1t was given preliminary organization. The purpose of the luncheon was to stir the interest of Little Rock business men so that the district would be re- vived and the road constructed. It's completion should prove great trade advantage to Little Rock, making this territory accessible by highway 12 months of the year.

An audience which comfortably fill ed the Central College auditroum last night heard the annual recital by members of the conservatory faculty. Equal praise was accorded those ap- bearing on the program for their share in presenting a concert of un- usual merit by a conservatory where merit is the rule and not the excep- tion.

BIG FIRE CAUSES
 S45,O00 LOSS
Continued from page 1.)

M. Harrell said that a thorough exam ination and appraisal would be re- qulred to determine its damage. The two buildings destroyed were owned by Mrs. J. B. Moore and were valued at about $10,000 with $5,OOO insur- ance. The City Meat Market, opened about two months ago, was owned by Charles J. Erbacher and C. M. Hucka- by. Fixtures and stores of meat on hand represented about $8,OOO with $4,OOO insurance. MT. Erbacher lett today for Little Rock to dispose of 40 head of cattle held here. An un- usually large supply of meat was on hand at the time of the fire. Esti- mates of damage to plate glass win dows were made by J. A. Pence, own CT of the building occupied by Panich & Selby.
 To have resulted in the damage it did, this mornings blaze was the least spectacular imaginable. The City Meat Market burned quickly, and the flames in the part of the Harrell store destroyed were held down by the roof, giving out clouds of smoke but no high shooting flames. Electric light lines were soon broken and left that part of the city in darkness ex- cept for the fire, flashlights and lan- terms were carried by the fighters. A heavy cable carry 124 telephone lines was strung over the alley be- tween the market and the Harton building. It broke and suspended telephone service as well as lowering itself over the railroad tracks in the rear of the fire.
 Manager G. w. Sammons of the To- cal exchange said today that cable and ordinary telephone lines are be- ing replaced as rapidly as possible. Full service to the 124 phones now out of commission will be restored by Wednesday night, he stated. Electric lines were replaced by noon by Supt. E. V. Leverett and his assistants, and complete service restored.
 So far as known, the first knowl- edge of the fire was had by Marshal Durham. A generally accepted theory is that the blaze originated from a defective flue, theory supported by the fact that it had completely spread through the roofs of both buildings before working downward Scant ac- cess to the roof and it's timbers pro- longed the fight and left the fate of the other buildings in the same block in doubt for some time.
 Even at the height of the blaze, fire fighting went on with small scurry and racket. A part of the hose used was old, and the audience lined up across the street was treated to an icy water bath when a break oc- cured and a spurt of water cast in that direction. Leaks were frequent in many sections of the old hose, and probably reduced the pressure of the streams thrown.

ASK RELIEF FROM
 < x H|CHWAY.TAXES

A number of taxpayers from the Damascus road improvement district met with the board of commissioners of the district here at the Commercial Club rooms yesterday and asked the board to take under consideration some plan for granting partial relief from the highway taxes due next spring Those making the request said the present depressed price of farm pro- ducts would make the payment of the first years taxes, which will be the highest of any to be collected, very difficult. It was suggested that for the present the road be constructed only to Wooster and the remainder be deferred until conditions improved. It was also suggested that additional territory be incorporated in the dis trict in order to give wider distri- button of the tax.
 The commissioners took all the suggestions and requested under ad- visement and it was stated today that efforts will be made to work out some play by which the burden may be at lest partially lifted until the present emergency is passed. It is probable, however, that special act of the leg islature will be necessary for this pur- pose.
 Boards of all three improvement dis tricts in which construction work is in progress held their regular month ly meetings yesterday, and allowed the engineers estimates of the work done during the past month. On all of the contracts, it was stated, the cost of the work is running consider ably below expectations, the quanti- ties of excavation proving to be less than the preliminary estimates of the engineers.

 DOWN TO DOLLAR
tBy United Pr0s)

Pratt, Kans., Nov. 23.-"Dollar wheat" was predicted today by J. D. Frisbie, manager of the Pratt Flour Mills. He said that wheat touched new low level yesterday when the grain was quoted at Pratt at $1.30.
 "We might as we'll face the music" MT. Frisbie said. There is no need to hide the truth-wheat is bound to go down and I believe it will decline to $1."

Farmers Live LONGER.

This, on the authority of the bureau
of labor, which has been compiling sta
tistics on the subject. Undoubtedly
they do. An open-air life, coupled with
fairly regular hours, sufficient food
and sleep, and lack of opportunities
for some of the more wasteful forms
of diversion, must needs conduce to
longevity The farmer reaps the re-
ward of this virtue even If the virtue
be only that of necessity. Counterbal-
ancng factors will be found I'm faulty

FORBID BICYCLE
RIDING ON WALKS
City Ordinance Makes
Boys Pleasure a
Misdemeanor.

1t Is unlawful for boys and girls
to ride bicycles on sidewalks over
the city. Many Of them are unaware
that there IS city ordinance pro-
hibiting this common practice, and
that they are subject to a visit to
the police station II discovered in
the act
Until recently, police have been
very lenient with bicycle riders, but
so many complaints have reached
officials lately that there Is to be Il
greater effort made to stop what Is
termed a nuisance, IL was said at
the city hall yesterday.
The ordinance relating to the use
of bicycles reads: 1t shall be un-
lawful for any person to ride or
drive on any sidewalk of the city or
10 stop any vehicle or animal on any
crossing or cross walk of the city or
to leave the same standing on or
across the said crossing or cross

and Other City
Officials Put Taboo
on Street CarniUdLs

Carniyals and. other forms OF
street shows are In disfavor by
the mayor and. city commission
ers. The last carnival to visit
Tulsa, carly last spring. left bad
taste In the mouths Of city off,
cials and private citizens. 1t also
left a tremendous amount Of rub
bish and filth on Tulsas streets.
A request by the local union OF
tho International Machinists as
ISOLATION. 'rking that It be al
lowed to bring the Frisco Expo
sition shows here next month, was
passed upon unfavorably by
mayor and commissioners yester-
day. They contend that there is
nothing about a carnival that Is
uplifting, elevating or educa-
tional, and that there are a lot OF
Objectionable features.
So Tulsa will probably go car
nival-less for a while.
