PLAN

American Delegate Meets With
Signal Success in Matter
of COntraCturaI Debts.

The Hague, Sept. General Horace
Porter of the American delegation to the
peace conference, led his proposal for the
collection of contractural debts to practic-
ally unanimous approval today by the
committee of examina ton, and at the
conclusion of the meeting ne was the
recipient of many congratulations upon
the success of his efforts. The Importance
OF this American proposal it is pointed
out, lies in the principle which 1t estab b.
fishes rather than in its application,
which may be very seldom General Por-
ter met all the objections raised with
ready argument and finally brought all
the countries represented. debtor as well
as creditor countries, into line, with the
single exception of Switzerland which Is
neither a debtor nor creditor country.
There is reason to believe, however. that
even the Swiss government will sign the
convention with reserve regarding the
matter Of jurisdiction.
DR.. Drago's Position.
DIR. Drago, while he cast Argentine's
vote in favor of General Porter's proposal
for the reason that il establishes Obliga-
tory arbitration in matters relating to
cOntractural debts, declared Argentina
maintained her original views on the sub
ject. Only thirteen countries, including
Brazil Mexico and Argentina, We're rep

the committee of arbitration, upon which
all the nations are represented The Aus
Hungarian proposal in the matter Of
obligatory arbitration was practically
wrecked by today's vote as the majority
in favor thereof was smaller than that
which supported the British proposition
on the same subject There probably will

The logical outcome of this move- ment, which is already beginning to assume definite shape, will be a petition to the city council to close up all places of business on Sun day. Some time ago a petition was circulated and literally signed with that end in view but for some reason it was never presented to the council. Now it seems that this movement has become a popu- lar one and the circulation of another petition of that character, seeking to close practically every class of business in the city on the Sabbath, is being considered.

 Williams News: The city coun cil of Globe has passed an ordi

The ordinance is the result of decision by Judge Nave to the effect that the city has no right either to license or regulate such places.
 Arizona Republican: Here is what one man did on small patch of Salt River valley land, and it would be hard to equal it in any other country. James Davis, who lives near Mesa City has a small holding of which six acres were planted the present year to onions, cabbage and tomatoes. The gross returns were $500 per acre. The water and expense of cultivation amounted to $20O per acre, net profit of $500 per acre, or $500 from six acres. That is pretty good revenue for a farm so small one can almost carry 1t around with him.
 Yuma Enterprise: A few days ago an Indian called Charlie Tempe, because he formerly lived Tn the vicinity of Tempe, escaped from the prison. He was serving sentence for cattle stealing, and as he had acted like a good Indian, he had been made trusty. In the excitement of making ready for his journey he got into a suit of clothes belonging to one of the prison officials and appropriated jewelry to the value of $50. He is probably now renewing acquaint- ances with his red friends in the Salt River valley, and will be hard hombre to catch.

OLD CORN BRINGS $l.Oo A BUSHEL
Severest Drouth Since 1874 in Pope,
 Logan and Perry Counties.

Dardanelle, Aug. ll.-It has been nearly six weeks since this community has had a rain, and for the greater part of this time the weather has been hot, with occasional hot winds. The result is that the entire upland and at least 60 per cent of tue bottom corn crops are practically ruined beyond redemption.
 A continuous drouth for ten days longer will mean the total destruction of the entire corn crop, unless it be the very early planting, which may prodsce half a crop. In the thin sandy bottom lands and also the black lands where it is not we'll worked the cotton is shedding badly, and is opening prematurely. Even the moderately late peas are dy- ing. This condition prevails from this point to the mouth of the Petit Jean river, distance of g miles. 1t is said to be the most severe drouth that has vis- ited this country since the sum- mer of 1874.
 From the best reports obtain able this condition is not confined co the above named territory but is probably common to most of this county and perhaps Logan and Perry counties. old corn that was selling last week fos GO cents is now Sl per bushel.

HOW BREAKBONE
 FEVER AFFECTS YOU
Disease Spreads in Texas and Is Said to Be Propagated by the Mosquito Pest Disease Seldom Fatal
 but Very Painful.
From the Gazette.

From the Gazette.
 Dengue, or "breakbone" fever as it is most commonly called, which has made it's appearance in Texas, is an acute infectious disease of tropical and subtropical climates, and is said to be spread by mosquitoes. Five hundred cases were reported recently al Brownsville, Tex, and 100 cases were reported from Matamoras, Mex.
 The disease is characterized by paroxysms of fever, pains in the joints and muscles and skin erup- tions. The disease derives the name "breakbone" fever from the atrocious character of the pain. 1t is sometime called dandy from the stiff, dandified gait it causes.
 It Was first recognized in Carlo, Egypt, in 1776 and iu Java. Be tween the years 1924 and 1928 the disease was prevalent in India and the Southern states. Since that time there have been four or five widespread epidemics in the tropical countries, and on this continent the latter part of tue year 1897. None of the re- cent epidemics have extended in- to the Northern states, but it. the year 1888 1t prevailed as far north as Virginia. It has pre- vailed in the United States troops in the Philippines and among the natives.
 The rapidity of diffusion and epidemic character are the two most important characteristics of dengue. It attacks more popula- ton than influenza. In Calves ton, Tex, in 1897, 10000 people were attacked within two months. The disease belongs to the group of exanthematic or eruptive all ments, and is highly infectious. The question of its specific germ is still undecided.
 The period of incubation is from three to five days, during which time the patient feels well, The attack sets m sudden
