MUST HAVE L|CE:NCE
TO SELL PROPRIETARY PRFpA. NATIONS WHICH ABE USED
 AS BEVERAGES,
Must Pay Privilege to Government State. County and City. Which
 Comes High

Local druggists have received taa following circular letter. which t self explanatory, from Secretary J. N. Beidleman Of the Arkansas s5ata Board of Pharmacy:
 pr. j. W. BeideIman, Secretary State
 Board of Pharmacy. City:
 Dear Sir Me have your letter of the 15th ia L, in which you call em attention To a report or the ease of Steele ys. the State Of Arkaasas. which Was affirmed by ihe supreme court on last Saturday and reported in Sundays Arkansas Gazatto IS ba. ing a conviction in Violation of the liquor law in selling a certain pro prietary preparation, and asking Us what particular article this man had sold in violation of the law. in order that you may in circular letter give the result of this decision to the va r;ous druggists over the state, in or der that they may be protected.
 This "certain proprietary prepara- ten is not so generally described in the decision. but the decision says
 Appellant sold to one Kelley a car- tain compound called PE-RU-NA." Why the newspaper described this in such general terms and avoided us- Inc l.
 haps understood by all those familiar with the contracts newspapers are compelled to make for advertising on this article, if they make any con- tracts at all. In this instance in which the newspaper failed to reflect the truth of this decision sufficiently to enable the druggists to protect themselves from violations of the law. the issuance of this circular by You is quite commendable and will doubt less be appreciated by the druggists.
 This is a sweeping decision and will not only apply 10 PE-RU-NA, but to any other preparation which may in toXicate. The court in this decision said: It is unlawful to sell the same even though the seller do so thinking. in good faith, that it is to be used as a medicine" To sustain a conviction. it is only necessary to show that the article was intoxicating, and that it was sold without license.
 AS stated by us in a previous letter to you, under the Blind Tiger act of 1883, the POSSESSION of a United States liquor license is made prima facie evidence of the guilt of the party owning or controlling the house. This provision of the law will be of consid- erable interest to those druggists who contemplate taking out United States revenue license in compliance with the recent internal revenue depart ment order, taking effect April 1. 1906. Yours very truly,
 Robert l.. Rogers, AttorGev General.
 Calling attention to the above from the highest legal authority in the state, this board believes it to be duty to advise you to be exceedingly careful in the sale of anything that may be used as an intoX icant-un- less you possess all the licenses state, county, city, as well as U. s internal revenue.
 You will understand that this circu. as matter at all under our super vision or authority.
 Respectfully yours, The Arkansas State Board of Pharmacy,
 J. w. Beidelman, Secretary. Little Rock, Ark, January 20 1906.

at home and was brave to the
! end Just az ke had always been
in his capacity as an engineer.
His fireman. Tony Erwin, was
killed outright. Frank Diebler,
a prominent young farmer, was
once a fireman, and took great
delight in jumping on the engines
asi0nally and showing the
boys that he had not forgotten
any Of his old tricks. That day
he had received a car ofcoal, and
had assisted in spOtting it.
Diebier had the base Of his skull
horribly crushed, and never rea-
lized what had struck him. He
leaves a sorrowing wife and hum
dreds of Granville friends.
Joe Goslin, the brakeman, was
standing on top of one Of the
front cars and the force with
which his train was struck, forced
him over into the wreckage. His
leg was ground to a pulp clear
to the hip. He lived until 6
o'clock and was conscious to the
end. His suffering was awful.
Everything that the citizens Of
Granville could DO for the suffer-
ing men, was done AS soon as
was realized what happened,
every citizen hurried to the scene
of the wreck. Fred Barlow was
taken at once to the Great
Northern hotel. Diebler and
Goslin were taken to Hart's pool
hall, which was thrown open for
the injured. DR.. Barrett deserves
much credit for the way he went
into his work, trying to alleviate
the terrible sufferings OF the un-
fortunate men. A special from
Minotcarried the Great Northern
surgeons, Crokat and Windell,
and DR.. Newlove to Granville.
where all afternoon they worked
over the injured. The followind
day the bodies Of Barlow, Gosli p|
and Erwin we're brought to thi5
city and placed in the variong
mOrgues.
The two engines were fearfulfy'
wrecked. The freight engine had
been knocked back a distance Of
fifteen rods by the terrible force
with which it was struck, and it,
rolled over several times. The
passenger engine remained on
the track but was rendered USE
less.
The baggage car was demol-
ished. but the baggageman es-
capped without an injury. He
must have been in the back Of
the car. Robert Sorenson, cook
III the diner, was slightly injured,
having wrenched his knee. The
passengers were terribly shaken
up, but no one was seriously
injured.
Gov. Deyine, Ex-Sheriff Wm.
Carroll and Banker, Sleeper from
.Mohall were in the dining car en-
Toying a dinner. When the en-
gines struck, the three men we're
thrown against the tables with
terrible force. Every dish on the
table and the table cloths were
thrown to the floor. The dishes
we're all broken. Mr.. Sleeper
suffered from the force with which
his stomach struck the table.
He had but two hours before been
in a wreck st Surrey, so thinks
this his unlucky day.

"A hOrf1Ol0 WT0ck, huSe'VS .,v ~ 9 8
head-end collision Of two Great
Northern trains, occurred at
Granville Friday noon which re-
suited III the death Of four per-
sons, three railroad men and one
farmer. The trains colliding
were No. 6, the east-bound pas
senger, and the daily freight
from the Sherwood branch. The
dead are:
FRED BARLOW. engineer. Lived
but an hour.
Tony ERwIN, fireman for Bar
low. Killed outright.
JOE GosLlN, brakeman on
freight, leg ground to hip. Lived
until $50 that evening.
FRANK DIEBLER, farmer, skull
crushed. Lived until 6:3O that
evening.
The unfortunate occurrence
was the direct result Of a confu-
sion of train orders. A small
wreck had occurred that morn
ing at Stanley, and on that ac-
count Regular No. 6 could not
pass. Word had been sent to
Granville that No. 6 had been
annulled, but later a second No.
6 had been made up at Minot
and sent out almost on time:
Granville was not notified Of
this train, according to the story
of the station agent and the re-
naming members OF the train
crew OF the freight. The morn
ing had been very foggy, an ideal
day for wrecks, and Engineer
.sBilly'' Green, the Jolly little fell
low on No. 6's engine, kept a
sharp lookout ali the way to
Granville, hoping to avoid disas-
ter, but says he could see but
three car-lengths ahead OF him.
He was leaning far out OF the
cab-window as his train pass ed
the first switch into Granville
and he was very close to the en-
gine OF the freight train when he
came to the second switch. His
train was going twenty miles an
hour, and he could not put on
the brakes in time to avert the
terrible disaster.
The next thing Billy Green
knew he was lying out on the
ground beside his engine, the
force with which his train struck
the otherhaving forced him thru
the window to the ground. He
struck on his head and was
rendered unconscious. Aside from
having his face burned with
steam, he was uninjured.
On his engine were his fireman
and q travelling fireman. Neither
were injured. The three men on
the freight engine however were
all killed, or injured so badly
that they died that afternoon.
Fred Barlow, one OF the best
known and most highly esteemed
engineers who made Minot his
headquarters was fearfully hurt.
He was almost disembowled, but
lived nearly an hour. Altho he,
was suffering terrible agony, he
remained conscious to within ten
minutes ofhis death, and realized
that his time was near at hand.
He sent verbal messages to his
wife, his brothers and loved ones
