Yesterday afternoon, after he had
been interviewed by the Governor and
the Secretary regarding his interview
of yesterday in the Advertiser, Mr.
Thwing called at this Office and asked
that a statement be made for him re
garding the circumstances under which
he said that his belief was that in
formation had leaked to Breckens from
the Governor office. What he de- |
sired said was that he did not call |
on the Advertiser to volunteer the state |
ment but made it in answer to di |
rect questions asked him, as he was
afraid the Governor was under the inn |
preston that he had blabbed concern |
ing his suspicious.
It was agreed that such statement |
according to the facts would be made, /
provided Mr.. Thwing acknowledged |
that the Advertiser had neither mis- /
quoted him, misconstrued his words OF
his answers to the ques
tons put to him.

In the arrest Of three yeggmen

secret service operatives say they
have captured leaders of gang
which has made more trouble for the
Postoffice Department than any other
in the country.
Two Of the men have been in Jail

been kept secret to prevent the
third one, who was expected to arrive
at Hot Springs to meet them, from
taking alarm. He arrived Monday
night and was also placed in jail
The men are Charles Gallagher,
alias Laughing Charlie, alias Charles
McMullin; Joe Mccarthy, alias Big

airy sentences, according to Patterson,
and are wanted in various parts or
the country. They will be taken to

DANGER PAST At PINE BLUFF.
Some Banks Continue to Cave, but II
is Believed That Fascnes Will
Prevent Further Damage.

Pine Bluff.-Although a fve-room
house on East BarraQue street tumbled
into the Arkansas river Tuesday night,
the situation here is no longer looked
on as alarming and this is consider
ed the most encouraging day Pine
Bluff has had since the river became
possessed Of the notion that the prop
er thing for it to do is to empty into
the gulf of Mexico in the vicinity of
Galveston, Tex, The Arkansas is now
rapidly falling here, and practically
all danger from caying has passed,
though some banks are stll caving.
The house which went into the stream
Tuesday night was one Of several on
East BarraQue street which had been
vacated. 1t was owned by Joe Krump-
ner and was valued at $500
Several of the small cottages in the
vicinity of the one which went into
the river were torn down so
that the lumber might be saved.
1t is not thought that any more will
go into the river as the facnes, thous-
ands of which have been anchored
along the river front, are holding
well and the current is making no
headway against them.
Pine Bluff breathes easy now and
is preparing to inaugurate deter

TORTURED SIX MONTHS
BY Terrible Itching Eczema-Baby's
Suffering Was Terrible - Soon
Entirely Cured by Cuticura.

Eczema appeared on my sons face.
We went to a doctor who treated him
for three months. Then he was so bad
that his face and head were nothing
but one sore and his ears looked as if
they were going to fall off, so we tried
another doctor for four months, the
baby never getting any better. His
hand and legs had big sores on them
and the poor little fellow suffered so
terribly that he could not sleep. After
he had suffered six months we tried
q set Of the Cuticura Remedies and
the first treatment let him sleep and
rest well; in one week the sores were
gone and in two months he had clear
face. Now he is two years and has
never had eczema again. Mrs. Louis

OIL Is Struck In SEWER County.

Arkansas Thursday strengthened
her claim to being the greatest state
in the Union in the way of natural
resources, when at a depth of not
quite 600 feet the drill at the pros
pecting we'll of the Nichols Oil and
Gas Cimpany, near Lockesburg, struck
a vein Of petroleum. While the well
now produces only three barrels per
day, the officers and stockholders of
the company are jubilant at the in
dications, and experts in the employ
Of the company are certain that not
more than 400 feet more of drilling
will reach a rich pool in the Tren-
ton rock that undoubtedly exists at
that depth.
The Nichols Oil and Gas Company
is composed Of Arkansas meu and
Arkansas capital and derives its name
from William Nichols of LoCkesburg,
who was instrumental in leasing q
900 acres of promising territory a few
miles southeast of there. The near
est oil well was at Annanias, La, 70
miles distant, and the drilling of the
test well at Locksburg was a consid,
cradle hazard, in spite of the assur'
ance Of the expert biologists. Should
the well come up to the expectations
of the company the remainder of the
lease hold will be developed as rapid
ly as possible.
Drilling on the well was started
about 60 days ago and the evident
good fortune that has befallen the COM
pany has not deferred operations
Within the next 80 days Trenton rock
will have been reached.

CAUSE AND EFFECT
Good Digestion Follows Right Food.

Indigestion and the attendant dis
comforts of mind and body are GER
tain to follow continued use of improp-
er food.
Those who are still young and
robust are likely TO overlook the fact
that, as dropping water will wear a
stone away at last, so will the use OF
heavy greasy, rich food, finally cause
loss Of appetite and indigestion.
Fortunately many are thoughtful
enough to study themselves and note
the principle Of Cause and Effect in
their daily food. A n Y young won.

Sometime ago had lot Of trouble
