A.G. S. AT THE FAIR
Arrived rIonday Afternoon and
are Taking in the Sights.
Senic Railway Company Has Sued
One of the Newark Boys for
Disiguring Their Cars.

Special to the Journal.
St. Louis, Sept. 21.-The Ark
ansas State Guard is making its
presence felt at the big fair this
week.
Company B, of which the New
ark boys are a part, did not get
into camp until 2 p. m. Monday,
and some of the boys were just d
little sore over not having anything
to eat since 6 p. m. Sunday. But
we are now nicely situated and are
having fine time.
But this encampment of the
State Guard, like all others we
will have in Arkansas for few
years, is not what it should be.
1t was pretty cool here last
night. Our feet came near FROST
inc under two blankets.
There are quite few soldiers
here. The Twenty-frst Essex
Fusiliers, of Canada; ten divisions
OF Illinois Sailors; the First Bat
TALON First Virginia Richmond
Blues and a company of Illinois
Infantry (blacker than this ink.)
The Newark boys are having a.
grand time. Our part of the
guard is not bad.
John Cash has been sued by the
Senic Railway for disfguring
property while holding on to a
seat during a trip over the senic
railroad. The trip over the senic
road is very exciting one, and
as the cars run very high from the
ground, John didn't want to fall
out-and did't intend to, if his
grip held out. The seat he oceu-
pied is said to have been badly
disfgured.
Preparations are being made for
the celebration of Arkansas Day
tomorrow and an elaborate pro-
gram has been prepared. The
guard will take a prominent part
in the ceremonies.

ansas product born, reared and
educated in Arkansas is a
firm believer in the future great
ness of his native state.
Mr.. Coleman was born in the
city of Batesyille the 18th OF May,
1877. He was educated in the
schools Of Batesville, graduating
In 1892. In 1896 and 1897 he was
engaged in mercantile pursuits in
Newark, and in 1897 took up the
study of law In January, 1899,
he was admitted to the bar and has
since been actively engaged in the
practice of law.
He always took an active inter
est in politics, and in 1902 was a
candidate for the legislature. He
was defeated by only a very small
majority and it was generally con-
ceeded that if he should be can
didate in 1904 his election was as
sured.
Mr.. Coleman was one of the
first to announce his candidacy in
the campaign of 1904. He was
nominated in the democratic pri-
mary by handsome majority,
having led the ticket by several
votes. In the general election his
popularity was again attested by q
heavy vote, he having received a
total of 2,318 votes, which is sew
eral more than a number Of the
older and more experienced poll
ficians have to their credit.
He is an orator of no mean abll-
ity, and during the recent cam
paign made a number of speeches
throughout the county in behalf
of the democratic ticket.
Mr.. Coleman is only q years
old and bears the distinction of
being the youngest man ever cleo

BOND AMENDMENT CARRIED.

According to the complete re-

September 5, the vote on the two
proposed constitutional amend
ments was as follows:
Amendment No. Increasing

FIVE to six)-Total vote, 9O,O63-
For amendment, 44,773; against.

Amendment No. 9 authorizing

for amendment, 44,066; against,

1t will be seen that amendment
No. s is defeated, while No. 8 is
in the same category with the poll
tax and gubernatorial appointment
amendments, voted on in previous
elections, which received a major
ity of all the votes cast on those
questions, but not a majority of
all cast in the election. 1t is prob
able, therefore, that Amendments
No. 8 will be declared adopted.

WAS TIRED OF LIFE
Old Lady Attempts Suicide at Her
Home Near Cord.
Took Morphine With Suicidal Intent
But Life Was Saved by Doctors
After Hard Struggle.

Mrs. William McLain attempted
to eommitsuicide at her home near
Cord last Saturday night. No
reason was assigned for the rash
act except that she was tired of
living.
Saturday evening she complain
ed of feeling badly and sent to her
son Henry's who lived nearby, for
some morphine. He had recently
bought Il full bottle, only a very
small amount of which had been
used. He, of course. had no sus-
plcion Of his mothers intentions
to end her life with the drug, and
instead of dosing out small
amount for her, sent the bottle.
She took only a very small dose
and rubbed some on her head and
nothing more was thought of the
matter.
That night she did not retire I'M
I'll all the other members of the
family had gone to bed. She then
took half the contents of the bot
tie of morphine. pinned a note on
her breast containing the simple
statement that she was tired of
living, and went to bed.
About midnight her husband,
who was sleeping in another bed
IN the same room, awoke and
heard her grooming. On exami-
nation she was found unconscious.
Respiration had almost ceased, her
body was rigid and it was thought
that she was dying. The note on
her breast was discovered, and
realizing that she had taken NOR
phine, Mr.. McLain, with the hope
that something might be done to
conteract the effect of the deadly
drug, telephoned for Drs. Pascoe
and Poe, of this place, who drove
out, and after a hard struggle,
succeeded in saving her life.
Mrs. McLain is "a years old and
has several grown children. Her
father committed suicide a few
years ago by hanging himself, and
one of her brothers once made an
unsuccessful attempt at suicide.
Her father is said to 'have made
two attempts before he succeeded
in ending his life, the first attempt
being a number of years ago. Al
ter his first attempt he is said to
have expressed regret for his ac-
ton and it was thought that he
had entirely abandoned the idea of
self-destruction, and it was TWEEN
ty years before he made the next
attempt. This time he made good
his intentions by tying a rope
around his neck, passing it over a
rafter in his barn and jumping
from the loft.
At last accounts Mrs. McLain
was getting along nicely and her
recovery is assured.
