Loss to Business FropertS ESuAA~teo ~
 s4,00O.
 Decatur. Feb. 1s.--(speetal.) )--Bank Street was visited by fire at an early hour this morning. causing total loss of about $G000 covered by insurance The origin of the fire is unknown.
 The old State bank building which was erected in 1852 Is badly damaged in the second story by fire while the low CT floor Is damaged to the extent or several hundred dollars by water.
 This building was owned by MFs. Leila seaton Wilder, of this city, and was occupied by w F. Grisham as a lodging house This was one of only five buildings that was left standing in Decatur at the close of the civil war. all the others having been destroyed nv the army. The building can be re- paired, but 1t will cost several hundred dollars to replace the damage done by the fire and water.
 Adjoining the bank building was a two-story brick business block contain ing two store rooms. One of these Etores was owned by John l.. Brock and was occupied by W. ?. Grisham as Q cafe. The other store room was own ad bv pr. w. D. Steers and was un- occupied at the time of the ire. This brick building is badly damaged also by ire and water. but can be repaired at a considerable expense.
 The fire companies did good work in saving the buildings from total de- struction and also in saving adjoining buildings.

 The see-saw failed to work yester- day. Miss Virginia Bragg smith ano Miss saliie watkins Wood are play inr a new game. It is modelled altex tha faunoua ~Csaston and Apnonss anisode of the comic Sunday supple merts. Each wants the other to pc first In the race for The Adveftlsers sf,000 automobile and other prizes. The conversation between tue peerless contestants now IS soinelhins like this:
 ~prav nrecedel me, my dear saltle.
 T beg you to remain first my dear Virginia" o, me, my dear Sailie."
 q beseech you to remain where you are, my dear Virginia"
 T insist that you become qnsen v
 Tha foregoing may not be the exact words they use in addressing eacn other, but their actions amount 70 sns same thing. 1t is very evident, Judg- inr by their scores this mornings that Miss smith and Miss Wood are botn playing 'possum. That is. each ps tTy- ing to conceal from the other now many votes she really has II matless not at this stage of the contest who is in the lead, since each is trying 10 re- sarva aome votes for the final test of strength, when it will make Dig ait- ference as to who is in first place.
 Fabian Tactics.
 For the last two weeks MISS smith and Miss Wood have been see-saWing back and forth, one being in the lead today and the other tomorrow. Never beforS has .oueen virginia reigned suprema for more than one day ct a time. @Today we have an exception, and 1t is not little Yirginia's fault She gave Miss Wood every possible eppor- tunity to take the lead again, by not adding a single vote to her score or yesterday morning. Miss Wood TOT once smothered her ambition to wear the crown aud permitted an increase Of only 5000 in her score, leaving her stiIl 1.750 points behind her popular little rival.
 Of course no one will believe for . moment that Miss Smith and Miss Wood have suddenly quit working, or that they have completely exhausted me generosity of their friends. The pub lished scores of the various contes- tants show only the number of votes that have been placed in the hands of the contest manager to be recorded in their favor. and does not take into account any subscriptions that have been cashed and for which ballots have been issued but not yet voted AS good many subscriptions are paid and ballots issued with the place for the name of the contestant favored left blank, the contest manager does not know how many votes are outstanding for any contestant He does not know how many contestants have duly ap- proved ballots that have been sent 70 them without his knowledge.
 Masking Thetr Batteries.
 It is a well known fact that vir- gina Bragg Smith and Sallie Watkins Wood have a great many friends who are eager to see them win first prize,

-N
 and that q great deal of work is being done for each of them. aside from what they are or may be doing for them selves. Miss Smith being but eight years old. cannot do very much Tor herself, but she is ably assisted by her devoted mother and elder brothers and a host of loving friends. Miss Wood. who is in the high school and has her lessons and examinations to keep up, does not have very much time to de- vote to her oyn campaign. but she, foo, has a mother and brother and vast army of friends to help her.
 Thus the merry war goes on from day to day. The fighting is not all done in the open, but neither side is resortfng to any means that are not strictly honorable. It is good general ship for one side not to expose to the other the location of it's batteries nor to use up all of it's ammunition at once. That is why Miss Virginia and Miss Sa11ie are so sparing of their votes at the present time. Each young lady is planning. no doubt, to surprise the ether with big reserve of votes at
 sam Anybodyss Victory.
 1t Is still anybody's victory regard less of the present state of the score. It Is t0ss-up whether Miss Smith or Miss Wood would be in the lead today If the entire number of votes each ac- tually has at the present time were known. The all-important question is

Mineral Deposits Found.

q. c. Root of Hot Spring county.
was in Little Rock Tuesday, confer
ring with State Geologist Whitlock
concerning samples OF graphite ore
which he found on his farm and which
was pronounced to be of high grade.
Mr.. Root is now attempting to find
someone who will help him develop
the veins of graphite, which he is sure
cover part and possibly the whole
of his entire farm. Mr. Root states that
he did not go very far in attempting
to ascertain the exact extent of the
graphite vein on his farm, but said
that he had probed his land, which
lies near the northern boundry of
the county, at three different places,
about 200 yards apart, and had found
the vein of graphite at each place. He
states that he dug down in the vein
about one foot and a half at each
place, and in neither case did he sue
coed in reaching the bottom of the
vein. Graphite is valuable mineral.
1t is used, in the refined state, for
lead pencils and for various other
purposes.

Fruit Crop Is Not Damaged.

Fruit growers at Sloan Springs
have made a careful inspection of the
fruit buds since the recent cold snap,
and report that neither the peaches
nor any other fruit has been injured.
c. M. Lee, one of the largest peach
growers there, said that he had care
fully inspected the buds and found
them in good condition. He stated
that he believed the cold weather had
been a good thing, as it checked the
too rapid growth of the buds, thus
avoiding the danger of a late frost.
1t is believed that the danger from
cold weather is about past. The rec
ords show that every fruit crop that
has been killed by cold weather was
killed at an earlier date than this.
The prospects for a heavy crop of all
kinds of fruit is very good. but the
peach crop promises to be an excep.
tionally good one.

Hoo Cholera.

The greatest drawback to the hog
industry which breeders in this coun-
try have to contend with is what is
known as hog cholera" and swine
plague"
Hog cholera is a highly contagious
disease and unless checked is liable
to carry off great number of hogs in
a very short time.
Mr.. A P Williams, of Burnetts
Greek, Ind, tells of an experience
which he had with some hogs that
had the cholera. Five years ago, "
says Mr. Williams, 81 was in the en-
ploy of Mr.. J. D. Richardson, Lafay-
ette Ind, as his barn foreman. Some
fine hogs that / was feeding took the
cholera l gave them Sloan's Lini-
ment and did not lose a hog. Some
were so bad they would not drink
sweet milk and l was compelled to
drench them. have tried it at every
opportunity since and always find it

Will A. Moore Killed BY Charles p.
Meehan.

Charles P. Meehan shot and killed
Will A. Moore at Cotton Plant at I
o'clock Wednesday morning. No de-
tails can be obtained. as to what red
to the difficulty, as Mr.. Meehan has
made no statement. He surrendered
to a deputy sheriff shortly after the
killing, and is now in Jail awaiting
a preliminary examination, when the
facts will probably be developed I'm
til he has advised with counsel
Mr.. Meehan will not talk.
Mr.. Meehan is the son of a we'll
known merchant and planter of Cot
ton Plant, formerly of the firm of Nee
han & MCGOWAN. He and the dead
man were both reared in Cotton Plant,
and have been acquaintances all their
lives. Mr.. Moore is survived by his
wife and two small children. Mr.. Nee
han is married and has one child.
Owing to the prominence of the par.
ties, the tragedy, so wholly unexpect'
ed, created much sensation.

OLD SURGEON
Found Coffee Caused Hands tc
Tremble.

The surgeons duties require clear
judgment and steady hand. A slip
or an unnecessary incision may do IL
reparable damage to the patient.
When he found that coffee drinking
caused his hands to tremble, an Ills.
surgeon conscientiously gave it up and
this is his story
For years l was a coffee drinker
until my nervous system was nearly
broken down, my hands trembled so
could hardly write, and insomnia tor
tured me at night.
Besides, how could l safely per-
form operations with unsteady hands,
using knives and instruments of pre-
cision? When | saw plainly the bad
effects of coffee, l decided to stop it,
and three years ago l prepared some
Postum, of which / had received
sample.
The first cupful surprised me. 1t
was mild, soothing, delicious At this
time gave some Postum to a friend
who was in a similar condition to
mine from the use of coffee
~ lew udg SbllSl, L hiOJ MN anu
he was full of praise for Postum, de-
claring he would never return to cot
fee but stick to Postum. We then or
dered full supply and within a short
time my nervousness and consequent
trembling, as we'll as insomnia, disap-
peared, blood circulation became nor
NAL, no dizziness nor heat flashes.
My friend became a Postum en-
thusiast his whole family using it ex-
clusively.
1T would be the fault of the one
who brewed the Postum, if it did not
taste good when served.
THE best food may be spoiled if
not properly made. Postum should be
boiled according to directions on the
pkg. Then it is all right, anyone can
rely on it. 1t ought to become the
national drink" There's a Reason"
