Miss S. McGhee Isom and Mrs.
P. b. Barringer returned Sunday
night from a trip through North
western Arkansas. While travel

they met with an accident which
came near being fatal to both. The
stage, IN which these ladies were
riding, fell over a ledge, on the

heroic efforts of some gentlemen
present, was prevented from fall
ing 900 feet below. into q river.
Fortunately neither Mrs. Barrin-

According to Doctor c. A. Peterson and
Doctor w F Parks, the site on which
CLAYTON stands and the surrounding country
began forming COCO years ago, prior to
which time II was q wide sea.
A stone ak, recently found by Central
Belt surveyors inbedded fourteen feet be-
meath the surface, they think is a prehistoric
relic left there about that time. They have
had the ak in their possession two weeks,
during which time they visited the country
around the St Louis County seat to con-
vince themselves that their supposiuons
were not unfounded.
They will send the ak to the Smithsonian
Institution. in Washington.
BY examining the subsoil and fnterrosat-
ing witnesses who have been digging there.
the archaeologiSts have decided that the sea
dried up about that time and that the soil
then began TO form. Then great sand
storms ragged and the first stratum of what
is to-day populous and prosperous country
was laid
They think that the sand came from the
bluffs of ST. Charles County overlooking the
Missouri River which are zoo feet high. as
the loess. red clay as it Is more COM
monty called, resembles the top soil to be
found there to-day. The valley kept filling
up gradually until to-day it is fourteen feet
higher.

news that President Castro was willing to
arbitrate reached London after the House
of Commons had risen and most of the
Government officials had left their offices.
For these reasons it was impossible TO get
even a semofiicial opinion upon the prob
able action that Great Britain and Ger
many might take a result of VenezUela's 9
changed attitude.
The prevailing sentiment in political and
diplomatic circles is that Great Britain
will be very willing to submit the question
to arbitration, if the United States has
been approached by Venezuela in good
faith The fact is the sentiment for arbi
tration was very strong in official and non
official circles long before the matter
reached such a critical stage.
There Is no doubt that the sinking of the
Venezuelan warshps was quite a shock to
almost every one outside of the Government
officials. if not to them. 1t was not real
