A SrAR reporter recently interview.
ed Mr. j. r. Buchanan, Gent Pass.
Ag't, Of the F. E. 4 ". v. Ry., and to
ascertain what il anything bis road
would do to advertise the Hot Springs
and induce the people to visit this fa.
NOUS resort the coming summer. Mr.
Buchanan said that he had expected to
do considerable in that line aud to that
end had had . large number Of fine
views taken Of points OF interests IN
and near the Springs, and would use
them to illustrate the advantages Hot
Spring possesses as a summer resort.
Mi. Buchanan further stated that the
effort he should put forth, would in a
considerable degree be measured by
the hotel Accommodations that Hot
Springs could furnish. He estimated
that fully tw.nty thousanl people
could easily be induced to make a trip
to Hot Springs during thu coming sea-
son, but that II present facilities Tor
caring for that number were entirely
inadequate, and unless more hotel fa-
%cilities could be furnished it would he
folly to carry in so many people. MIR.
Buchanan's opinion is certainly Of
great value, al he has opportunities Of
knowing what the prospects for the
next season are, such as few have.
The question that confronts us,is what
shall we do to secure more hotels.
Here is an opportunity FOR some one or
several IN fact to establish themselves
in a good business in a good city. To
do all the business Hot Springs can
get to do, she must have more hotel
facilities. The hotels we now have
are good enough, but there is moi

A MORBID APPETITE.

A Little Girl In Nebraska Who Has an
Uncomfortable Desire for Blood.
The six-year-od daughter of farmer
named Suth, living few miles from Kear
rey. Nebr.. has recently developed most
remarkable appetite, which is alarming the
parents and pulling the local ply sic!ans.
The appetite is for fresh blood, which the
child seems to prefer warm from the
creature supplying 1t. The girl is of
slight appearance. with fair hair and
blue eyes. Ordinarily she is of shrinkin
disposition, dreamy and languid and In.
clined to be nervous. For some DAYS be-
fore her appetite was noticed she became
torpid and very much averse to any move
ment. She was supposed to be iii and a
physician called to see her. She refused to
take either medicine or nourishment and

killed chicken for her. AS she held the
bleeding fowl in her hand little Ernpsti ne
sprang upon her, wrenched the chicken
from her hand and applying her lips to the
CORY neck, sucked the warm blood. The
Mortified physician and mother attem pied to
take it from her, but she fought savagely
for it, and fearing her reason might give
way the ductor told her parents to let her
have it.
After she had finished her hideous meal
she threw herself on the floor and fell into a
deep sleep. from which she did not awaken
for twenty-four hours. On awakening she
appeared to be her natural self and had no
| recollection OF what had occurred. Since

A SUPERSTITION VERIFIED.
Fruit That Has Graveyard Taste an
SMina VIII Not Tnnch Il

Fruit That Has a Graveyard Taste and
Swine WIN Not Touch 1t.
The yield of an apple tree in the ST.
George Cemetery verifes the superstition
that all things grown in graveyard are
unfit TO eat The fruit has a graveyard
taste-so much so that swine will not
touch it.
When Benjamin Raymond, a civil en-
gineer on the Delaware and Chesapeake
Canal, was buried in September, 1924, one
of his fellOw-craftsmen stuck an apple-tree
switch in the ground alongside of the grave.
A large and apparently healthy tree now
marks the spot, the white fruit of which
temptingly natures in august Of each wear
Tue ylsid falls to the ground, and the
only persons known to have even spar
ingly eaten Of it are domestic Cowboys"
whose sense of taste is not rs acutey de-
yelOped as that of the average human being.
When placed on the stove hearth to roast
THIS peculiar fruit SINNERS down IN oil, and
emits ali odor strongly suggestive OF a
graveyard.
Some time ago Mahala Dudley, colored,
who lives near by, saw The hne-ooking
apples on the ground, and asked if she
could give some Of them to her hogs. Will
lam Ii. ROssum, the cemetery keeper, told
her to help herself. and Mahala spent an
afternoon in gathering four bushels and
carrying them to her home.
To her surprise, however, the swine not
only refused TO eat the fruit. but ran away
from IL. The disappointed woman tried in
vain to make the hungry animals eat the
burying ground yield, and the next day
asked tile donor If he had put a smell on
them apples"
1t is believed that the roots of tie tree
have become impregnated with deleterious
matter, anu that to eat any quantity of the
apples would cause sickness, If not death

DECORATING AN ARTIST.
A Little Epis ode by Which Verestchagin'
Coat Was Nearly Ruined

Little Episode by Which Verestchagin s
Coat Was Nearly Ruined.
The celebrated Russian painter, VeTest-
chagiD, who created such sensation by his
alleged sacrilegious painting, once received
a decoration. The Gar bestowed on him
the cross OF st. George, which is only given
to those who distinguish themselves in war.
Verestchagin happened to be in a small
town which was beseged by large force of
Turcomen, relates the Texas Siftin2s. The
little Russian garrison was in danger Of be-
ing overwhelmed by the enemy. Although
not connected with the army, Verestchagin
seized musket and laid out many pictur-
esque-iU0king TurcOman, whom he would
much rather have painted.
He distinguished himself in the sorties
made on the enemies for the reason, he put
it, that he didn't care to be left behind. The
Russians managed to hold out until re-
endorsements arrived.
Some time after General Kaufman called
on the artist and told him that the Car had
given him the cross Of st. George.
what do l want with the st. Georges
CROSSE"
That's neither here nor there. The cross
is here aud you must take it,"
Verestchagin refused to accept the cross,
and General kaufman, taking out his pen
knife, cut slit into the breast of Verest-
chagin's coat and hung the cross on his
breast.
There, you have ruined my only coat"
said the artist. There was no help for 1t,
he had to accept the decoration. He said it
was warning to him never again to give
up the brush FOR the musket.

one hundred and second birthday, says the
Philadelphia Times. She was born in Penn
sylvania, the daughter of Stephen and Mar

HOW TO KILL CATS.

The Quiet-LookIDg Man Tells His Story,
Which Ends the Conversation.
They had been telling stories of ineffectaa nj
attempts to drown cats, pussy in every case
turning up on the kit hen hearth. purring
serenely as though nothing had happened.
Finally a quiet-looking man, a stranger,
who had been silent up to the moment, sud-
denly broke out with
THAT reminds me, gentlemen, of the
time | had with my cat"
Instantly every face was turned toward
the Ouiet-l00klug man. Ue went on:
That cat was the biggest nuisance ever
saw. And steal? Great Cesar! He was
the worst thief that ever walked on four
feet. i had tried a dozen times to drown
him. But it was no use. Bag and ballast
and all that sort O. thing were only fun for
him. He always got home before | did. At
last tried new dodge. / put Tom in
bag and tied him right tight and started for
the railroad track and left a locomotive and
twenty cars run over him. Then | went
on my way with him. When l got to
the water | tied ten pound chunk of iron
to the bag and threw it in. | waited until
the last bubble had come UP and then re-
turned home" And when you got there"
cried half dozen excited listeners, you
found that cat" The quiet looking man
seemed surprised at this. "Oh, no, gentle
men," he said, you forgot that freight
train and the big junk of iron and the bub-
bles. No, never saw that cat again." The
qulet-looking man had not been loud or boast
fnl in telling his story, says the Boston
Transcript, but when he had finished every
man present looked as though he had re-
ceived personal injury, and there was no
more conversation.

An interesting feature In the boat Is the
position OF the mast. The Glorana's mast
is 10 feet inches abaft the forward end of
the lOad-water line. The center of the
mast on Mr.. Rogers boat VIII be from II
feet inches TO 10 feet or trifle farther for
ward than that of the Gloriana. The new
boat will have less freeboard also, although
the difference is hardly noticeable. Another
difference in rig will De an excess in the
length OF the masthead Of nearly three feet
over the Gloriana's. This length on the
Gl0rana is 9 feet and on the Rogers boat it
VIII be about u feet or nearly as great as
that Of the old 90foot sloops
The chief fea ures of the designs In the
new vessel are full lines forward and very
fine bullock lines and diagonss. The effect
is to make the yacht travel through and
over the water with the greatest possible
ease.
The minutest details of construction of
the new yacht have been reported in the En-
9llsh sporting newspapers, which fully rec
ognlZe the merits of the innovations. These
extend even TO the carrying of the lines of
the hull fair TO the fore-edge Of the stem
The planks are five inches wide and very
carefully laid, the seams of the two skins
breaking joints, while at each butt of either
SKIN an inside butt strap of wood is placed
The seams of each skin are very carefully
fitted so that no calking is required, the re-
suit being smooth surface Of wood with
no putty to swell out Of the seams.
An English yachting correspondent, speak
ing of the boat, says: ut will not surprise
me if there will not be number of keel
"fortieS" laid out next year. The new de-
parture has certainly given flip to yacht
designing and building. We are just copy
ing the AmericanS-that is all. ="
