DESCRIPTION OF
A SEPTIC TANK
improved Method for DlspCs-
ing Of Sewage.

A good many Of our citizens are
wondering just what a septic tank IS
how constructed and operated. The
bids for the Vinita sewer system were
made with and without a septic tank,
the difference being $1,000
The council concluded to employ
this plan Of disposing Of the sewage.
IL is a double brick circular tank Zone
inside the other) 80 feet In diameter
and six feet high. The discharge is
into one tank, from which the water
is syphoned into the other and from
that syphoned TO the outside.
The calculation is that "A hours swill
have elapsed between tile time the
sewage enters the tank and is dis
charged. Further scientists state
that when confined IN az air-tight re-
eeptacle bachteria will destroy itself in
p hours. Mr.. f. J. Spriggs, the con-
tractor, offers TO guarantee the dis.
charge will be much clearer than the
creek and without odor.
Once in about two years, says this
gentleman, the tank VIII need bt
cleaned out, which is done by mar
with a shovel, ''man-holes' being left
for the purpose. The use Of the sep
tic tank is the most improved methoC
Of disposing Of sewage and is the one
employed by most cities where ther'
Is not tidewater or considerable
stream TO carry il away.

NO UNION MEN MARCHED
Cripple Creek Has an Unusua
 Labor Day Parade.

Cripple Creek, Col, Sept. 5. ' Labor Day was observed here with parade of 5000 independ- ent workmen. It was the first time in the history of the camp that the union men failed to pa rade, and probably the first ob- servance of Labor Day by strict ly non-union men in America. Banners reading" "They Can not Come Back, Cripple Creek is Still in America" "198 Ship ping Mines" and We Don't Hire Salaried Agitators" were carried. Army officials, the fire company and the local militia participated.
 It is thought to be the first time. the militia ever marched in a Labor Day Parade.

 This line, when completed, will probably become a part of the Memphis district, as the office of trainmaster on this road has been abolished, and the jurisdiction of the superintendent and trainmas- ter of the Arkansas division has been extended to include the Searcy and Des Arc.

terest in the extent of the inter vention of Japan in the affairs of the hermit kingdom.
 Under the Anglo-Japanese al- liance both powers agreed to re- spect the independence and in- tegrity of Korea, and the agree ment between Japan and Korea is regarded as an infringement of Korean independence. But 1t had been expected that if Japan was successful in the] war she would establish a protectorate over Korea. The Russian en- bassy pointed out today that at the beginning of the war the Russian government declared it would not regard the acts of Japan in Korea as binding, and therefore they would not receive the recognition of the Russian government, a fact which, it is stated in Japanese diplomatic circles, does not concern Japan.

Independence county has voted against license by a small ma jority, which will cut out saloons in Newark and Batesville, though both those precincts gave license majorities. In Batesville, how ever, the vote was close.
 Craighead county has also Topped into the ranks of the dry ones, and Randolph and Greene are also reported to have gone against license.
 Lawrence county has elected Hill, a republican, sheriff, over Bill Childers, and has probably been carried for license, though many country precincts are yet to be heard from.

BALLOT BOX TAKEN
 FROM ELECTION JUDGE

Ola, Sept. 6.-The ballot box in Wilson township was taken from the election judges last night while they were on their way to Wm. Berry's house to spend the night. Two men com mitted the act. They kept the box all night and returned it to the judges this morning. It was decided by the judges to turn the box over to the county election commissioners at Danville with out counting the ballots. This has been done.
 The local contests in Yell county were decidedly heated, especially over the sheriff's of flee, but the returns indicate the election of Briggs, Democrat, over Smith, independent. Da- wis, for governor, carried the county, which is one of his strongholds, by about 1000 plu- rality.

NO HOPE FOR MEDIATION.
Russia Desires to Regain Her
 Lost Military Prestige.

London, Sept. 5. Careful In quiries in official and diplomatic quarters here today establish the fact that no hope prevails of the termination of the war at this moment as a result of the series of victories obtained by the Jap- anese at Liao Yang. There has been no interchange of official views by the neutral European governments. What discussion has occurred has been entirely personal and has led to no results, even to the extent of paving the way to mediation. There is no thought of intervention, the As sociated Press has learned, nor can there be any mediation with out the consent of both parties,
 and Russia, 1t is stated emphati- cally, does not find the moment opportune to accept the good off, fees of any power. Japan, on the other hand, is known to be less discontented with the pres ent situation and would be will ling to enter upon peace negotia- tions if Russia could be induced to do so. But Russia feels, ac- cording to statements made in Russian diplomatic circles here,
 that she cannot afford to accept peace until she has completely vindicated her military prestige,
 thereby reasserting her influence in central and far eastern Asia.

Iron Mountain Freight Crashed
 Into Cotton Belt Passenger.
 Wynne, Sept. 6. Cotton Belt express No. 38 ran into a vest bound Iron Mountain freight train about three miles east of Wynne this morning about 5:10, smashing both engines and de- railing five cars. None of the passengers on the Cotton Belt were injured, the only sufferer from the accident being the fire man of the freight train, who was slightly cut in the leg as a result of jumping upon a sharp stone.
 No. B pulled out of Wynne on time, and the engineer, George Barnett, says he had no intima- tion of danger until he rounded the curve, three miles from Wynne, and saw a headlight bearing rapidly down on him. He shut off his engine and applied the air and succeeded in almost stopping his train before meeting the freight.
