Local Army 0iGcor Transferred,

First Lieut.. Clyde a. Phillips, now stationed in Camp Lewis, Wash, has received orders from the War Depart Iment assigning him back to his old regiment, the 4th U. $. Infantry, one battalion of which is now located at Fort Lawton, Wash, being four miles from tre business heart of Seattle.
 MT. Phillips will join the battalion now lat Ft. Lawton and will be given the command of the Machine Gun Com pany upon his arrival. Upon the dc-
 parture of the 4th Infantry from Camp Lewis last June, MT. Phillips was un- table to accompany his regiment, due
 to the fact that he was on special duty
 with the Camp of Instruction for Re- serve Officers and the Citizens Mil. tary Training Camp. Throughout the summer, he acted as Assistant Adjut- ant of the various Summer Training Activities which were conducted at Camp Lewis. Clyde's many friends in Ashdown will be glad to learn that de- spite the great eduction of the Ofic- CTS of the regular army and the cor responding demotione in grades and rank formerly held by them that his standing in the promotion list of the army was such that his status was not affected.

BLUE SUNDAY LAW
 PASSES TEE MOUSE
Prohibits Fishing, Golf, CT Any Other
 Game, Gn First Day-'rO -A Play No Fay0rites.

Little Rock, Feb 10.-'.Let the law be made consistent" urged Representa- tive Sheffield of Phillips county when he arose on the floor of the House yesterday and demanded that the Sun- day prohibition be extended to all games of skill and athletics.
 MT. Sheffield called up for final reading and passage his bill to prohibit fishing, golf, tennis, football Or any ether similar game, on Sunday. Sug- gestions were made by more or less facetious members that he should in- clude mumblepeg, tiddle-de-winks, marbles and finch, and some soliciti- ous member toward the rear of the hall wanted to know what affect the bill would have on a mans kissing his own wife.
 Mir. Sheffield however, said he was sincere in his desire to make the stat utes apply to all games and to prohibit the rich man from playing golf as well as the poor boy from playing baseball on corner lots. He cited the following section of Crawford & Moses Digest, which was approved March 5, 1885, and has never been repealed, and, incidentally. does not appear to have been enforced
 Section 2743. It shall be unlawful for any club, person or persons to en- gage in any game or play of baseball in this state on the Christian Sabbath or Sunday"
 When the bill was placed on final passage, only one courageous repre- sentative dared vote against it. This was John A. Riggs of Garland county, who was heard to remark, soto voce, that lot of his wealthy constituents at Hot Springs would never forgive him if he stopped them from playing golf on Sunday
 The bill was hurried over to the Senatorial end of the building, where Senator Grabiel took it in hand and when it was read the second time had it made special order for this morn ing.
 Sunday Baseball Bill Beaten. ~ The temperament of the House on the question of Sunday baseball was tested when Mir Quarles of Phillips county called up the playing of base ball on Sunday in Phillips county. The bill had been amended by MT. Sutton to exempt White county, which had been added by Senator Abingdon. MT. Quarles offered an amendment provid- ing for a referendum, whereupon Mir. Timberlake of Hampstead moved that the bill, with amendments, be tabled. The motion was seconded by Mrs. Hunt of Jefferson and MT. Belote of Hot Springs, and was carried over- whelmingly.

ton by the committee had been held

of Texans including Adj. Gen. Z.
ID. Barton, over a newspaper account
of meeting in Kansas City wherein
General Ely was quoted as having
referred to the Thirty-sixth Division,
Texas and Oklahoma National Guard
troops as "rOtten."
Responding to a Geographic inquiry
from Chairman Wadsworth, General
Ely replied that he had not used the
language quoted and had not meant
any reflection on the Thirty-sixth Di-
vision by the statement that they
were, forced into action before their
training was completed, and that his
statements were not deemed a reflec-
ton when made before an audience
In San Antonio, Tex. or later before
the one in Kansas City, which includ-
ed a number of National Guard Off
GERS.
Moreover, he quoted the text Of n
letter addressed to the editor of the
Kansas City Times. which printed
the story calling attention to wrong
quotation and asking that proper cor
rection be made.
Accompanying the telegram from
General Ely were messages from
Adlutant General Raup of Missouri.
Col. e: NJ. Stayton, Mai. James II.
Batchelor and Maj. Edward Nc
kehan. all of Kansas City, urging
his confirmation and denying there
was any reflection upon the men of
the Thirty-sixth Division. Acting on
these kilograms the committee voted
to report out the nomination favor
ably.

7. ID. Armour. founder of the great

Attorneys for Murphy took every
possible step to fight the mail rob-

The case is now before the Supreme
Court and Murphy will await its de-

AS he was being transferred to the
Jail tonight, Murphy attempted to

When the marshal wouldn't listen,
Murphy resigned himself to the in

REFRESHING DRINKS NECESSITY FOR HEAVY INDUSTRY WORKERS,
 FLORENCE KELLEY DECLARES

By International Labor News Service Philadelphia, Pa, Oct 6.-Attrac- tive, refreshing drinks must be pro- vided for workers in heavy industries who depend on alcoholic liquors to replace the fluid which they expend at their work, or otherwise they will drink whatever lessens their discom- fort, prohibition or no prohibition. This is the conclusion of Florence Kelley, general secretary Of the Ma tional Consumers League, in writing in the September issue of the An nals, published by the American Academy of Political and Social Sci ence, Philadelphia The issue is de voted to discussing prohibition and it's enforcement.
 Miss Kelley declares herself pro- hibitionist, convinced that the 18th Amendment will never be repealed. She expresses fear, however, that popular feling against prohibition will lead to the virtual annulment of the amendment and says that one means of making friends for the amendment is the systematic provls- ion of refreshing drinks for workers who are exposed to high tempera- lures by the climate or the nature of their employment.
 Prohibition" she says, "has sharply accentuated long struggle of wage earners of the most varied character for an elementary human right-the right to replace, as need ed, the fluid which they exhaust at their work
 Miss Kelley, who has taken part in many investigations of industrial conditions, goes on to tell of condi- tions that existed 30 years ago, when much human suffering and ruin was caused by the absence of wholesome beverages available for men and boys subject to the double strain of heat and hard labor She shows that in numerous cases the workers were driven to seek liquid refreshment in saloons of the lowest kind and says that in many industries laws provid- ing for proper drinking water facil ities are difficult to enforce.
 The need of providing satisfying substitutes for intoxicating bever- ages, for the use of workers in heavy industries, is still acute, says Miss Kelley, who ends the article as fol- lows:
 What, in conclusion, are safe drinks for employees who suffer from the heat while at work? Certainly not ice water or that drawn freshly from artesian wells. For many peo- pie, pure water alone is distasteful and often injurious. The safe, old standby in glass, iron and stel works

the price of that labor so as to stabil- ize their employment. The public has an interest in the coal problem, but 1t Is unjust to condemn the miner for not protecting public that had sufficient powers to protect itself and yet did not interest itself sufficiently to use them.
 ITO the statement of William Wiley to the Senate Commission on Education and Labor (vol. 2, p. o75).
 "'I believe hte United Mine Work CTS of America started a union at a time when 1t was most tremendously needed, at time when the operators were doing most dreadful things; and that there was a union needed, and they have done wonderful work, but as the power has grown in them they seem to have lost a sense of the ben eft to the men, ft the conditions that they wanted to remedy when there were no more conditions to remedy k (Thes Adherence being that the union IS unnecessarily
 There IS only one answer The inference Is not true. So long as the industry is over-developed, good in tentions will not maintain scale rates. The miners union is needed today to keep conditions from reverting to those that existed when operators did most dreadful things.
