ARKANSAS WOMAN
 DRINKS POISON
Mrs. Vernon Sharpe. Wife of Former Private Secretary to Congress-
 man Macon, Is Found Dead.

Memphis, July 1O.-Mrs Vernon Sharpe, wife of a former private sec retary to Congressman R. B. Macon of Helena. Ark, drank part of the contents of a small vial of carbolic acid at the Hotel Gehring, Union ave nue. this afternoon, and when found at o'clock life was extinct. It is thought Mrs. Sharpe, who was a beau tiful woman, had been dead only a short time when the body was found
 Mrs. Sharpe was daughter of Mir and Mrs. J. J. Lewis of Lansing, Ark and was prominent socially before and after her marriage to Sharpe sev- eral years ago. It is said her life of late has not been happy one. The police assign this as the cause for her death.
 Her husband accompanied Con- gressman Macon to Washington in December in the capacity of private secretary, but Mrs Sharpe did not go with him. Sharpe kept up a cores pondence with her and frequently in- formed his employer that his wife would join him in Washington, but she never came. Late in the month of March Congressman Macon dis charged Sharpe.
 Sharpe was in Jonesboro. where he has brother living and where his mother makes her home. He has been notified of his wife's death and is eX- pected to arrive in Memphis in the morning.

is forthcoming will quit before the month is out, for they are men whose circumstances in life demand monthly incomes. The Finance Committee is worried. If the men are paid in scrip and it drops to half value, they will quit, as salaries are now small. They cannot be paid in cash.
 Mayor todd, in view of these cir cumstances, has come out openly for change from "lid" to "open town conditions, with the privilege of club rooms under police regulations, and the restoration of the race track through petition to the legislature to repeal the Amis bill. The race track pays no direct revenue to the city, but Jodd states the taxes should be raised and cannot be raised withoupt larg- CT percentage of visitors, and that such an attraction as racing is nec- essary to bring the visitors.

There is more catarrh in this sec ton of the country than all other dis eases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incur able. For a great many years doctors pronounced it local disease and pre- scribed local remedies, and by con- stantly failing to cure with local treat ment pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be constitu- tional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Halls Ca tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J Cheney & Co.,, Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the mar ket It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to . teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and tes- timonials.

Hot Springs, July. 10.-Members of the police and fire departments, usu- ally paid on the 4th of each month, are in doubt as to their pay not only for last month, but for any future months until after the first of the year, when revenues are collectable. The city had $32 in it's coffers on the first of this month
 The statement of Mayor todd that city scrip would be issued in payment of obligations was not carried out pomptly, because it was feared the market would be flooded soon and the scrip reduced to half value. Neither the firemen nor policemen have threatened to strike as yet, but they are anxious about pay, and unless it

 Can't cure bad back until you cure

 Permanent cures in Pine Bluff prove the merit of Doan's
 E. c. Riden, 1911 East Seventh street, Pine Bluff, Ark, says: About ten years ago I began to suffer from kidney trouble. I would get up in the morning so lame and stiff, after pass ing restless night, that I could hard 1y stoop. Although the kidney secre- tions were far too frequent in ac- tion, the passages were scant and burned terribly. l tried several so- called kidney cures, but none of them helped me. About two months ago I read in the paper of Doan's Kidney Pills and as they were highly endorsed by the people of Pine Bluff, I made up my mind to try them. I procured a box from the -Tankersley Drug Co. and the affects of their use was wonderful. I am still using the rem edy and improving every day. feel sure that by the time have taken the contents of another box of Doan's Kidney Pills, will be entirely cured. l would not take five hundred dollars for the vast benefit I have already received"

REALM OF BOOKS
BY PAUL PRY.

The Car of Destiny" by c. N. and A. M
 Williamson. Published by The Mcclure
 Company.
 The Car of Destiny is the latest ad- dition by these two well known writer's c. N. and A. NJ. Williamson who were first endeared to the reading public through their very delightful little story,
 'The Lightning Conductor" Since then We have had My Frined, the Chauffeur, 'The Princess Virginia, and others, all equally interesting and clever. "The Car of Destiny is about the best since the initial one of the series. Ut takes the reader into Spain, the sunny land of TO- nance and poetry. The hero is stalwart, young Spanish nobleman, who is some- what in disrepute with court circles on account of the political affinity of his father. Of course. he has a clever up to date American "nobleman' as friend and chum. Under a thinly disguised English name the Spaniard and his friend after becoming interested in the King of Spain's visit to his English fiancee at Biarrftz, jumped into their "Gloria' car and pur- sued the Kings car across the Spanish frontier. As the couple had most wise ly surmised the Kings car was soon de- layed by an accident and the occupants of the pursuing Gloria" were enabled to offer the civilities due between motor ists. And thus the young Spanish noble man had the opportunity to look into the eyes 6f the young English Princess Monica, then visiting with the Kings

CLUMSY AS EVER
 SAYS THE QUEEN
RULERS OF ENGLAND DISPLAY THEIR TEMPER ON VISIT TO CARDIFF ON DOCK OPENING OCCASION.

London, January 25.-Special Cable.)- The incompatability of temper which for a long time has been known to exist be- tween King Edward and Queen Alex andra, is beginning to demonstrate itself in public. There is less care being shown by the Queen for the presence of a third party. If she is desirous of rating the King she is not deterred by the fact that they are surrounded by strangers and gossips who are only too ready to add a frst-hand anecdote of the King and Queen to their repertoire of social islander.
 Recently the King and Queen paid a visit to Cardiff to open a new dock. As the royal equipage drew up before the entrance to the town hall the Lord Mayor stepped forward, opening the door of the carriage containing the,s King and Queen offered his hand to Her Majesty to help her to alight. The King rose and. in attempting to follow his spouse. trod on the train of her heliotrope gown. Re- gardess of the presence of the Lord Mayor the Queen turned upon him with the contemptous sheer:
 Clumsy, as usual" she grumbled as she gathered her train together.
 D--n your dress" commented the King, shrugging his shoulders, as he gave the Queen his hand and escorted her in the town hall to luncheon.

 Lee and His Cause by John R. Deering. Published by the Nea1e Pub fishing Go.
 In the preface to the little volume entitled Lee and His Cause,v the au- thor gives this terse quotation, His tory, as written, if accepted in future years, will consign the south to in fanny" from the pen of the we'll known late educator, Hon. J. l.. M. Curry. The author follows this with his own words: "The truth, the only antidote for the poison of falsehood, should be set to work at once, or the evil effects will become incurable." Pondering on tn ese tn ings we must be grateful for the volumes which are written from the standpoint of honest conviction and personal knowledge of facts. MT. Deer ing's treatment of his subject falls un- der two heads--the first Gen. Robert Edward Lee, the man, the patriot, the soldier and citizen: the second, the req sons why the southern states left the 'northern--a strong statement of south ern characteristics, principles, interests, sentiments, conduct, etc.
 Without being extravagant in speech or showing any bitterness of spirit. "Eee and His Cause" betrays the earn estness of its author and is very sat- isfying.
