The principal remedy he relies upon in
such cases is Peruna, which every
roma should have, who has any affec-
ton of this kind.
In view of the great multitude OF
women suffering from some kind OF
female disease, and yet unable 10 find
any cure, DIR. Hartman, the. renowned
gynncologist, has announced his will
lingness TO direct the treatment of as
many cases as may make application TO
him during the summer months With
out charge.
The treatment will be conducted by
correspondence. The doctor Will pre-
scribe all medicines, applications, hy-
gienic and dietary regulations neces-
sary to complete a cure. The medicines
prescribed can be obtained at all drug
stores. This offer will prevail during
the summer months. Any woman can
become a regular patient by sending a
written statement Of her age, condition
of life, history and symptoms Of her de-
r-angements.
All cases of female diseases, including
menstrual Irregularities, displacements,
alterations, infiammations, discharges,
irritation of the ovaries, tumors and

Definite REPLY
Insited Gu by Taft in Matter Of
Friars' Lands.

Rome, June 24.-There is no doubt
that the negotiations of Governor Taft
of the Philippines with the vatican
regarding the disposition of the friars'
lands in those islands will end in sue
cess of the American proposals in ali
essential points.
Report of serious bitches are de-
MED by those who are best entitled to
know.
Some diversity of opinion regard
ing the details has developed. This
is prolonging the negotiations longer
than anticipated, and the answer Of
the papal secretary of state, Cardinal
Rampolla, to Governor Taft is too
general in form to satisfy the Ameri
can. But it will be Strengthened out
Governor Taft presented anther note
to Cardinal Rampolla, precisely indi-
eating the American wishes and ask
ing for a categorical reply thereto.

WORK SHUT DOWN
TEMPORARY SUSPENSION At
COTTON BELT SHOPS.
Work W!lI Be Resumed on July
With Full Force in Every De-
partment.

Every department Of the Cotton Belt
shops have been shut down almost
completely until July l. With the OK
ception Of a small force maintained
to keep things in order the entire force
has been given a lay-off.
Several reasons are advanced eol
the action of the officials. among
which is that it is brought about in
order to repair engines, cars, etc
Work of such character, of course
could not be done without a large
force of men. Those we'll informed
state that it is customary with all
railroads to shut Off every expense
possible towards the end of the fisca
year, and as July 1 will mark the
close of fiscal year with the Cotton
Belt, it is generally presumed that the
Cotton Belt is following this custom
The shops will resume OH July with
a full force in every department.

No rain has fallen in many parts of

Cowboy Will A. Smith has re-
turned from Little Rock, where he
has been participating in a siX-day,
e-hours-a-day race, which has been
in progress at West End park at Little
Rock since last Monday. Mr. Smith
entered two nights, and finding that
the patronage did not justify contin-
uig the race, he drew out, leaving the
field open to the two other contestants
Dick Kennedy, the st. Louis pedes-
trian who ran secc-1 in the Pine
Bluff race, and H. Hardesty, the Pine
pluff 'phenom," who entered the race
here, but had to quit on account of
bad health. Mr.. Smith had good
lead when he pulled out. He will soon
pull off a ten-mile race at Hot Springs
against ten pedestrians Of that city.
The Pine Bluff friends of young Har-
desty will be gratified to know that
he is making fine showing against
the veteran Kennedy, and at the CON
clusion Of Tuesday nights race at Lit
tie Rock had good lead and his
friends predict that he is winner.
He is a Pine Bluff product and the
local sports are roofing for him.

GEO. n. kiMBALL, OF YELL
COUNTY, NOMINATED FOR
GOVERNOR.
He Is Civil Engineer and of Good
FamiIy-Executive Committee
Appointed.
PLATFORM
ADOPTED
7 n 6

George H. Kimball, CT Yell county,
was nominated for governor by the
state convention of the Prohibition
party in Little Rock Yesterday. Mr..
Kimball is a young man, a civil engi-
ncer, and belongs to one of the best
families in the state.
The convention decided to make no
other state nominations. An executive
committee was appointed, as follows:
Martin n. Henry. of Jancinto, chair
man; John VI. Parker, of Yell county;
Rev j. w. Smith and J. e. Williams,
Of Newport.
4 platform was adopted, as follows:
We, the Prohibition party of Alkan-
sas, in convention assembled, belieV-
ing Almighty God to be the source OF
all just government, and recognizing :
in the traffic Of intoxicating drinks
the supreme political issue of the day,
and believing that that issue can
never be met and settled save by a
political party organized for and
pledged to the destruction Of the
liquor traffic hereby affirm our al
legiance to the national Prohibition
party and to its platform as announc-
ed at Chicago in 1900.
We announce ourselves as unalter-
ably opposed to the liquor traffic in
any and all its forms, and pledge our
selves, if given power by the vote Of
the people. not only to enforce all eX-
listing laws for curtailing the evils Of
the traffic, but also to enact and en-
force complete prohibltory legislation
for the protection Of the homes and
the business interests of the state, to
the fullest extent that can be attained
by state legislation.
We further pledge ourselves to the
careful safeguard of the interests OF
the people, including the needed re-
of public funds.
We declare our belief that existing
conditions in other political parties in
this state make it impossible that self
Christian men, should contine to sup
port them and the men and measures
for which they ask the votes of the
people. We therefore invite to the
support Of our principles and of our
candidates all good citizens who be
lieve in and desire honest and effec-
tive government, faithful care for the
