NERVE DISEASES
READILY CURED

About thirty years ago two German
physicians made the wonderful dis
covery that every portion of the body
is controlled by and supplied with
vitality by nerve centers located III
different parts of the brain.
Later DIR. Miles, President of the
Grand Dispensary, discovered that
defects of these delicate centers were
prolific cause of many weaknesses
and diseases of the various bodily or
gans. If an engine does not receive
sufficient power it cannot do is work.
The same is true of the lungs, heart,
stomach, liver, kidneys, womb, blad-
der, etc. Loss of nerve power is a
prolific cause of consumption, dys-
pepsia, headache, pain, Brights' and
heart disease, nervousness, debility,
etc.
This discovery is rapidly revolu-
tionizing the treatment of this class
of diseases. Cases that were former
~ incurable now yield readily to DIR.
Miles new treatment. Weak nerve
centers cause or complicate every lin
gering or chronic disease. Persons
having any weakness Or disease,
should read DR. Miles "Neuro-
,pathy," a booklet treating on Nerve
Cure for all chronic diseases, which
will be sent Free It contains many
interesting facts and fine illustrations
of the various brain centers which
control the numerous organs. It
shows the seat of life where a pin
prick will cause instant death. Do
not fail to send postal for it.
IF you wish a better understand
ing of your disease, if you desire a
speedy cure, if you would prolong
your life. remember that "Knowl-
edge is power" and send a postal

Situation at Sc Peterahura.

ST. Petersburg, Jan. 2.-The foreign
office has given out a~statement that
nothing had been done in connection
with a reply to Japan. The Japanese
minister here is unable to confirm or
deny the advices received from Paris
by Baron Mayashi, the Japanese min
lister to Great Britain, that Russia
had decided not to grant the Japanese
proposals. He says an answer TO these
proposals has not yet been made. It
is generally accepted in diplomatic
circles here as unlikely that an answer
will soon be delivered, and attention
is now mainly directed to the Japanese
war preparations.

GLOOMY VIEW OF IT
London Has Forebedlnss Of Trouble
In the Far East.

In the Far East.
London, Jan. 2-The far Eastern
outlook is gloomy. No further news
has developed, but the fact that not
a single telegram from Japan has been
received by any London newspaper
since Thursday night in itself creates
alarm. The telegraph company is not
aware of any delay in the transit Of
messages, and it therefore is supposed
that the Japanese government is stop
ping dispatches. The feeling of ap-
prehension is reflected at L1oyds, un-
derwriters demanding additional pre-
sells, no matter of what nationality,
proceeding east of Singapore. Even
in diplomatic CIRCLES hitherto sanguine
of peace there is a recognition that a
rupture is all but inevitable Neither
Japan nor Russia will abate anything
of their claims, and there is no dis
position on either side to invite the
mediation of friendly powers. It is
believed that Japan will take decisive
steps within the next few days, unless
a conciliatory message is dispatched
from st. Petersburg, a contingency
which those best able to form judg
ment do not anticipate.

THOSE WHO PAY TAXES
They Number Little More Than Those
Who Don't.

Comparison of the books in the
sheriff's office shows that just a little
over half the citizens i'll Jefferson
county pay taxes. The poll books
show that there are 1l,0cT people in
the county who should pay taxes. and
the assessors books show that only
1928 of these really pay anything into
the treasury of the county. That is
not two-thirds of the people
assessed. The list OF the townhsips
show that the people in Old River
more people live in that township who
do not pay taxes than who do. There
are AGA citizens in the township VINO
are assessed for taxes and there are
only 1G5 who have paid for the year
1903. showing that 299 people live in
that township who never see the col
lector. Plum Bayou township is anoth-
er township where the people are
away behind. for there are 1924 peo.
pie in the township who are rightly
assessed for taxes. and only 754 OF
these have gotten receipts from the
collector. while $40 have overlooked
the matter entirely.
The people in the city of Pine Blun
probably come nearer paying up than
anywhere else i'll the county, prob
ably due to the fact that the books
are kept in Pine Bluff and they have
better onportunity to pay All but

THE FIDDLERS" METEORlc RECORD
(Written Specially for the Graphica

The announcement that the horse,
The Fiddler" was dead created but
little comment last week in the
sporting world as compared with the
announcement last spring that this
same horse bad won the sixth race
on the New York track and thereby
made one of the greatest killings ever

he had broken on the tracks, but be-

race few select friends OF the
owner of the horse captured their
first last and only prizes by betting
on the horse that day. Meteor-like
"The Fiddler" flashed across the rae
ing horizon and in the same manner
he flashed entirely out OF the interest
OF the sporting world. 1t has been
thought by many followers OF the
turf that the horse was what is COM
monty called "ringer,'' but this fact
is steadily denied by the owners and
friends of the horse, and it is now
generally conceded that the horse was
simply a selling platter which ran one
good race and never ran another. Per
haps The Fiddler" was "primed" for
that one race, but the race would
never have amounted to much had IT
rot been for the heavy odds placed on
the horse by the "bookies" and the
hacking he received at several points

but the real owner OF the horse never
dreamed of the money that would be
won when that last race was called

one short year because he never won

the horse netted the owner, L. Y.
Cromwell. about $500 while the side
bets brought the owner but $l05.
'.The Fiddler was a three-year-old
cray gelding owned by 7. Z. Crom-
well of Pine Bluff. and ranked always
as q cheap horse. Mr.. Cromwell pur-
chased him of J. II. Walker OF st.
Louis for a comparatively small sum
ana did not use him for racing pur-
poses at onde. The owner always
| nelieved the horse could make good
| m some selling race, and the owners
predictions were verified beyond his
ELDEST dreams. The horse had won
q race on the Pacific coast. but the
winning amounted to but little and
.rouaht the horse no fame. From ST
| louis the horse was brought to Pine
Bluff and trained at Jones Park by
trainer Anderson. The horse made
several good miles while in training,
and when the chance came to ship

a class OF selling platers, Mr.. Crom-
we'll took advantage Of the chance.
The horse was the last one entered

could do a mile in ~, and when the

grow suspicious when ST. Louis and

to call for some one to take the "t'id-

COTTON STATES DOPE.


league pennant now stands it seems
that the whole matter will have to be
decided upon by 4 meeting of the
league directors at the end of the sea
SON Pine Bluff has drawn the lines
closer by taking a series each from
Monroe and yickshur2 during the
strong factor in the race really occu
pying first place or pushing NicksbHrg
close for the honor. The latest dis
agreement. and one which promises
to be serious, is the ruling Of Presi-
dent Wheatiey ami ice President
Harry lockwood Oh protested games,
by the board OF directors Of the Pine
Bluff association. Some weeks ago
Mr.. Wheatley ruled that the game for
feited by Greenvlle 10 Pine Bluff, and
so awarded by Umpire John Oldtield.
should be thrown out and not counted
in the games won. Last week, acting
lockwood announced that he had
thrown out the game awarded to Pine
Bluff over Vicksburg in the last series
here when Manager Earle of that
team refused to go to the ball park
and play the game after every ar
rangement had been made to get the
Vicksburg team there in time to play
the game before sundowl.
The Pine Bluff directors dissent
strongly to these two rulings and
claim that niether the president nor
the vice president has authority over
forfeited games. The section OF the
constitution OF the Cotton States
league which refers to the matter is
as follows:
"a club shall be entitled to for
feited games to count in it's series as
games won-by a score OF 9 to 0.
''In case the umpire in any cham
pionship game shall award the game
to such club on account of the VIOLA
tion by the contesting club OF any Sec
ton of this constitution, Or any of the
playing rules, and in the event OF
said forfeiture being caused by the
withdrawal Of the players during the
progress Of the game, Or by failure to
report with it's team at the time fixed
Tor the game, unless a written notice
has been received from the home
club, that the game cannot be played.
then such forfeiting club shall incur
a penalty of s10O, which shall be pay
able to the president within ten days,
for the use and benefit OF the non
offending club but said fine may be
RENTED or modified upon appeal to
and hearing by the board OF direct.
ors.'
The local directors claim the two
sames forfeited to the home club, one
by Greenville and one by Vicksburg.
While the league officials have given
notice that the games have been
thrown out. The Greenville game was
slVeh 10 FINE Blum by Umpire Old-
neld because of the refusal of Mana
ger Rothermei to continue the game
The. crowd did not interfere with the
game in any way. The Vicksburg
game was awarded to Pine Bluff by
Umpire Clifford because of the failure
OF the Vicksburg team to report at the
park for the first game of the Vicks-
burg series here. The Pine Bluff di-
rectors claim that President Wheat
ley has oyerstepped his authority in
announcing that the games must be
played over and have asked that he
count them in the official standing
tnat he gives out for publication.
1t is now generally conceded that
the race for the pennant this year
