TIES UP SPOOL
 AND PENSION FUND
Since Opinion of Attorney General Kir. by in Regard to State Capitol Alp. propriation Warrants Will Not
 Be Honored.

Little Rock, Aug. 2l.-No more warrants will be honored by State Auditor Moore or State Treasurer Yates against either the common school fund or the pension fund until the decision of Attorney General Kirby in the matter of the appropriations is tested in the Supreme court or a special session of the legislature makes new appropriations. Both state officers oyer the long dis tauce phone yesterday stated that in the future their acts would be guided by the opinion of the at- torney general, based upon the constitutional provision that no appropriation can run for long CT time than two years. Attor- ney General Kirby's opinion re- lated to the state capitol appro- priation, but the same regulations apply to all appropriations. Hence, the action of the state auditor and state treasurer.
 It is not believed that an ap- peal to the Supreme court by the State Capitol Commission would offer solution to the question The law Is plain, and 1t is be- lieyed that Attorney General Kirby would be sustained in his contentious, and that litigation would only mean an additional expense to the state without satisfactory cause.
 Asked about the condition oi the new state house, Mir. McFar- lane said that if it was left in its
 
 present condition the state would be the loser by many thousands of dollars. There is no protection against ram or weather, and the building if allowed to stand until the next session of the legisla. ture will deteriorate enormously
 George w. Caldwell of Gale we'll x Drake, contractors of the building, was advised by MT. Me Far,ane yesterday that 1t would be to the interest of the builders to discontinue work until the matter of further expenditure was definitely settled. However until the commission has met ant taken action work will not bt stopped, Mir. Caldwell preferrine to take the chance that he vii be paid.

LEGISLATURE MAY
 CONVENE IN OCTOBER
Kirby's Decision Said to Make Extra Session Imperative Must Re Iieve Situation as to School
 Fund and Pensions.

Little Rock, Aug. 2,.-"An extra session of the legislature cannot be avoided" said mem- Der of the general assembly yes- terday afternoon at the state house. "This opinion of General Kirby, calling attention to laws which have been forg gotten, have caused conditions which must be remedied.
 "The old soldiers shall be paid their pensions. The common school fund must be apportioned to the various counties as contem- plated by the people. But the attorney general has had nothing co do with that. He rendered an opinion regarding the power of the state capitol commission to complete the statehouse. He did not make the law, nor did he rem der an opinion as to the legality of the apportionment of this common school fund. But he pointed out the law relative tc the payment of the capitol fund If these other funds are involved the legislature alone can be held responsible. The legislature should be called into special ses' sion and this thing remedied, and it should be done at once.
 "Other matters than these might be considered, also. The governor would designate what matters should come up. Blu, these others demand the action oi the law making power of tho state, and that soou."
 It appears that special session will be called, and the wise ones are figuring out that the month of October will be most excel lent time tor it's sitting.

MALARIAL DISEASES.
How to Avoid Them and the Se- rious Consequences of Neg feet.

"Fix me up something to knock the malaria, doctor" remarked sallow- faced, sickly looking man, entering a rrcminent physician's office the other aay.
 The doctor stepped to his medicine case, took down couple of bottles, mixed a preparation which he handed to the patient with the customary advice to shake well aHd follow directions, and resumed his seat.
 "Such cases are frequent, replied the doctor in answer to question. "The warm days and damp, chilly nights are certain malaria breeders and are most serious in those who have neglected to keep their stomach, liver and bowels in good condition. Such persons are full of the impurities on which the malarial germ thrives, and it is from this class that typhoid fever, pneumonia, Bright's Disease, smallpox and yellow fever claim most of their victims whenever these dis eases are prevalent.
 The proper way to guard against the malarial germ and the serious diseases which follow it is to get into good condi' ton by taking reliable remedy that will keep the bowels clear and the liver healthy, and to continue with it at ire quent intervals during the sickly season A dose of Prickly Ash Bitters three oI four times week will do all of this, be sides stimulating the digestion, improv' ing the appetite and keeping the bodily energy at the highest pitch.
 Prickiy Ash Bitters is known every where as system tonic and bowel regu- lator. It not only removes all traces oi malarial poison from the system, but tones up the vital organs, gives new strength and vigor, makes the body strong and the brain active.
 "Prickiy Ash Bitters is the best aii-arount ] medicine for the family ever used.

 Mir. Miller is here now for the purpose of extending the concrete culvert in the southern yards 100 feet, preparator to laying the new tracks, which will be commenced as soon as the concrete work IS completed.
 It is the purpose ot the con1- pany to install and have for use at this point shops of the same ca apacity of those at Pittsburg to enable them to do the same re- pair work that is done both at Shreveport and Pittsburg.

PLEASED WITH POLK COUNTY.
s. L. Gray Finds Lands Here Very
 Productive.


 Mir. aud Mrs. S. l.. Gray left last week for a visit to their old home in Beloit, Kas.
 Mir. Gray came here two years ago and purchased the John John- son farm two miles east of Mena. Although accustomed to the bumper crops of Kansas, MT. Gray states that he is wonderful ly we'll pleased with his Arkansas farm, and the only thing which attracts him back to Kansas even for visit, being the old friends he has there. While he cannot grow as much per acre here as there, what he does grow is of greater value and in all his ex. perience he has never seen coun' try where the land responded as substantially to the use of stable manure and other fertilizers as 1 it does in this section.
 Mrs. Gray has been sick for some time but MT. Gray remarked that her sickness was not the fault of the climate and after a couple of months visit at theil old Kansas home they will return to their real home in Polk county

CROPS IN BAD WAY.
Uplands in Yell County Will Yield One
 Sixth Bale to Acre.

Havana, Aug. 20.-No rain has fallen in Havana or the surround- ing country for the past nine weeks, and as a result crops are almost ruined. Corn has suffered severely, and cotton is in such a bad way that it is estimated the uplands will not yield more than an average of one-sixth of bale to the acre. Bottom lands in this vicinity will yield about one-third to one-half bales to the acre.
 As result of the poor crop prospects. more people are de- voting their attention to hauling lumber than ever before at this time of year.
