have been flowing, leaving their de-
posits scores of feet deep at the base
of the mountain. Whence they
come nobody knows. There is not a
city, town, or hamlet in the United
States that has not at least one of
it's number restored to health by
these famous waters. Go into any
community you may select, whether
town or country, and say to any of
its intelligent citizens: 81 have just
come from Hot Springs, Ark" and
he will Immediately respond with
the information that so and so was
there in such and such year, and
was cured of rheumatism, or some
other ailment.
This is the fame they have gained,
and the record they have made in
just one century since their dis
covery.
For years before the white man
came, the Indians had used the
magic waters for the cure Of their
sick. The early explorers found
them here in great numbers, and
the different tribes always at peace
in this Valley of Healing as it was
known to them.
From the Ind ians the whites
learned to use the waters. From
beginning and solely on the merits
of the water Hot Springs with a
population of $4,000 and almost
100, 600 annual visitors, has sprung
into being. Were it not for the
waters it is doubtful if Uncle Sam
would have as much as postfficoe
here.
These waters have been too we'll
proved to leave any doubt of their
virtue. The government has been
using them for the cure Of it's sick
soldiers and sailors for over twenty
years, and the records at the Army
and Navy Hospital shows 90 per
cent cured or materially benefited
1t is of daily occurrence TO see men
and women who have come here
helpless cripples, after from three
to six weeks of the baths, walking
and even dancing with the best.
The War Department goes so far as
to enumerate in an official circular
some score or more ailments which
the waters have known reputation
for curing, thus giving the official
stamp and endorsement Of the gov
ernment to their healing virtues.
Among these rheumatism, with it's
kindred ailments gout and neuralgia,
has the leading place. Malarial dis
orders, functional arrangements Of
the liver, kidneys, stomach, an I
heart, nervous troubles, skin and
blood disorders, catarrh, and many
others are enumerated in the gov
ernment circular.
Their general tonic effect is being
recognized more every year, and
those who are overworked, tired,
and worn out, those who have ever
INDUCED in the pleasures of society.
excessive users Of alcoholic stimu-
lsnts find in the waters an almo t
sure relief and cure.
The Hale Bath House has a tunnel
some go or 10 feet long, into which
patients are taken with beneficial
results. All who go to Hot Springs
and bathe At the Hale and have
Hays as an attendant will be treated
right.

where the National Editorial As
sociation recently held its annual
meetings, are wonderful. The city of
Hot Springs is unique. Providence
provided one man built the other;
Providence made no mistake. Man
did well, but made a few.
Here is the situation, a narrow
valley three quarters of mile long
with mountains on both sides 600
feet high is the central plan of the
city. From the east mountain the
springs flow. Half the bath houses
i'll Hot Springs and the Arlington
Hotel are along the base of this
mountain, forming what is known
as "Bath House Row" On the op-
posite side of Central avenue and
along the base of west mountain are
the business houses of Hot Springs.
10 the north the valley opens out
into several small tributaries, each
having a street in the center. To
the south of Hot Springs valley
opens into the larger and beautiful
Quachita valley.
1t is in these latter two divisions
that the residences are situated.
The city is like huge dumbell with
Central avenue tor the handle. No
other city in the world is like it.
1t can hardly be described. 1t must
be seen to be appreciated. Many
VINO have not seen it think Hot
Springs, the city is crude ,unattrac-
tive affair. When they see it in all
its picturesqueness it is revelation.
In the center on either side the
mountains which constitute the Unit
ed States Government reservation

slope of the Hot Springs mountains
has been made into beautiful park,
planted with choice shrubbery and
flowers, with romantic walks hewn
out of the solid rock in places and
beautiful drives with grand entrances

avenue. Marb!e hot water feun-

AT a great expenditure the govern
ment has made il one Of the most
beautiful spots owned by Uncle Sam.
The great general hospital of the
Army and Navy is on the southwest
corner of this mountain. With all
it's imposing architecture, beautiful
grounds and entrances it sits like a
queen overlooking the broad valley
Of the Quacbita.

Officers We're Elected and Compensation ALI
owed the Attendants.

At the annual meeting of the trustees
of the Delaware State Hospital at
Farnhurst Thursday DIR. John j. Black
was elected president, and DR.. j. H.
Wilson, secretary. DR.. Black was al
so elected treasurer of the hospital
fund. DR.. Paris 7. Carlisle has been
secretary of the board for years, but
requested that some one else be elect
ed as he is about to remove into Sus
sex county, aud will have to relin-
qulsh his membership in the board, as
he was appointed from Kent county.
Superintendent Hancker made de-
tailed report of the recent smallpox
epidemic at the hospital. The addi-
tional cost occcasioned by this out
break was 81, zoo, and an itemized ac-
count was presented. 1t was decided
to allow $40 each as extra compensa-
tian to the 81 attendants for their SER
vices during the epidemic, and it was
suggested that the physicians also be
allowed additional compensation.
They declined to make request for
any amount, however, as they consider
ed that it was their duty to attend the
outbreak of any disease in the hospital
Trustees Baker and Wilson, however.
were appointed a committee to consider
the matter and report at the next meet
ing.
DIR. Hancker reported 80 patients
and that he had received S192,85 from
the board of pay patients. vote of
thanks was extended to the trustees of
the poor for the loan of the Emergency
Hospital in which to treat the small
pox patents. 1t was also decided to
overhaul the plumbing in the institu-
tion.
DIR. Watson was appointed to attend
amedical convention to be held in Mon
treal beginning on June Il.
The report submitted by the super
intendent showed the cost of maintain
ing patients at the institution to be
15.7 cents each per day. William J.
Nickel, who has been assistant super
visor of the institution for several
years, was appointed supervisor to
succeed Samuel McMullen, who died
of smallpox during the epidemic The
salary is $40 month. Clayton Smead
of New Castle, was appointed assistant
supervisor at S2J per month.

All the Prisoners but James p. Hughes Sub.
mitted ia Dover Jail Without Protest.
Sheriff Reedy has received his first
consignment of convict clothing for
use of the prisoners confined in Kent
county Jail, and the inmates who have
been sentenced by the Court of Cen
eral Sessions were at once ordered to
change their clothing and put on the
stripes.
The change was ordered by the Levy
Court some months ago on the ground
that it would be financial saving in
costly clothing, that it would make a
prison sentence more rigorous, that it
would lessen chance of successful
escape.
When the change was made all the
prisoners except one or two submitted
and gave up their citizens dress. The
principal obiector was Jane P. Hughes
who refused to make the change and
became so boisterous in his objection
that the warden had to sentence him
to ten days behind the "blind door. "
Hughes is serving a sentence for steal
ing a diamond.

NEW CASTLE A TOWN OF RESIDENCES.
Once a Thriving Industrial Center; There is
Only One Factory Running.

At present New Castle is but a CITY
of dwellings, for of all the industries
which have been located there, only
one now is in operation. This lonely
plant is the Knowles knitting mill.
which employs about $50 hands. The
town has population of about $500,
and most Of the working people have
to find employment in Wilmington,
Chester and Philadelphia.
About two years ago the big plant of
the National Tube Company, the New
Castle shirt factory, the Triton cotton
mills, the Knowles knitting mills and
Lea's flour mills were in operation,
and New Castle was a prosperous and
busy little town. Since then the tube
works, shirt factory and cotton mills
have gone out of business. The Lea
mill now has discontinued and the ma
chinery is being removed to Whining
toh. This leaves but the Knowles mill
in operation. As fast as the mills have
closed, the employees have found work
IN other cities, but continue to reside
In New Castle because rents are cheap.
The fact that the season has been a
fairly prosperous one for several fish
ermen is blessing to the city.

the report he spoke on holy matri-
mOny and stated that it IS no mere
natural and civil contract. He held
that the State has no right to limit the
term of a contract nor extend the class
of persons between whom the contract
may be made. Yet he felt that it
might properly enough narrow that
class to make individual safeguards
and do away with the great number of
divorces.
