HairDinx Cause Insanity.

It has recently been decided by some
who claim to be authorities that loss
of mental balance is often induced by
the use of hairpins. These scientists
argue that, the head, especially at the
back, is the most sensitive part of a
woman's anatomy. Further, that she is
likely to fix upon a nerve center as the
permanent spot on which to locate her
coils of hair, and thus persistently ''jab"
with a hairpin the regions which should
be kept free from the slightest touch.
It is claimed that this is the reason so
many are yearly sent to madhouses,
with some other cause fer their malady
assigned. AS middle-aged women do
not care to appear With short hair many
are, wearing a loose coil at the back
fastened with q blunt-edged shell comb,

Throughout Arkansas.

Large Fields Of Open Cotton De-
strOyed by Flames.
MEETINGS TO PRAY FOR RAIN.

Little Rock Ark, Oct. S.-Drought and
forest fires are doing great damage In

scarcity OF water: in some places there
is not even drinking water for the peo-
pie. No general rain has fallen for
over GO days. and in some localities the
drought is OF even longer duration.
The forests being as dry as tinder and
the ground covered with dry leaves, from
all sections reports of disastrous fires
are being received. Miles OF fence have
been destroyed. saw mills burned and
cabins gutted In some instances the
flames have been communicated TO large
fields of open cotton. which was de-
stroyed. In hundreds Of localities wells
and springs have entirely dried up, and
residents are hauling water in barrels
from the nearest streams, which In some
sections are 20 miles distant. Nearly
all late vegetables have been parched in
the fields The people, in many local
tiles, are holding meetings and praying
for rain.

BEHRlN,. SEA CONFERENCE.

Washington, Oct. S-Full information
has been received as TO the position of
the British government on the Behring
sea conference This proves to be much
more complete than the brief cable re-
ports from London indicate, as the de-
partment has been advised not only Of
Great Britain's declination to enter a
conference unless IL is limited to the
experts of the United States. Great Brit
ain and Canada, but has also been in
formed quite fully as to what led the
Marquis OF Salisbury to this conclusion.
The British view is that at no stage
OF the negotiations has the British gov
ernment agreed TO conference except
that between the experts OF Great Brit
ain, Canada and the United States. The
latest correspondence on the subject
leads to considerable doubt as to who
will participate in the coming meetings.
II has been understood that the differ
ence would be bridged over by holding
two meetings. in one of which Russia
and Japan would participate without
Great Britain. while a second meeting
would be held between the experts OF
Great Britain and the United States.
1T is understood that Ambassador Hay
was directed to effect such an arrange
ment in case Great Britain declined to
enter the general conference. There is
now some question whether the British
authorities will participate in any way
until a definite decision is reached as
10 who will take part in the general
conference. rs there is understood 20 be
a reluctance on the part Of Great Brit
ain to participate in dual conference.
