Two hundred settlers In the Pea
vine district, North Alberta, are re-
ported to be starving through
inability to get supplies 10 their

HERESY CHARGE MINISTER FACES
pr. r. F. Maddox of Tcxarkana, NOti. fled That Hearing Will Be Held
 By Ouachita Presbytery.

TeXarkana, June 1S.-Dr. F. E. Mad dox. pastor of the First Presbyterian church On the Arkansas side of the city, has been officially notified that charges have been preferred against him and that they will be heard at a meeting of the Ouachita Presbytery which has been called at Hope, on Friday, June 26. The question of Dr.. MaddoX's orthodoxy was raised by members of his congregation three or four months ago, but he was sustain ed by an almost unanimous vote of his congregation, which includes many of the most prominent and wealthy peo- pie of the city.
 For several months pr. Maddox has been preaching a series of sermons in which he took advanced ground advO- eating certain doctrines which some of the members of his congregation insist are heretical and contrary to the Pres. byterian creed.
 Dr. Maddox is regarded as one of the ablest preachers of his denomination in the Southwest. He is widely known in Arkansas Texas, Missouri and Ten nessee, and the trouble in which he has become involved has already at tracted a great deal of attention.

ALL NOW READY
 FOR CONVENTION

Jackson, Miss, June 1S.-Prof. T. P. Scott, president of the Mississippi Teachers association, announces that plans are well under way for the great educational conference to be held at the University of Mississippi July 6 and 2. at which it is proposed to bring together the representatives Of the rural and separate district schools, the denominational colleges. to plan an aggressive campaign for education to be waged in the state during the next year.
 All railroads operating in the state have promised to give the usual low rates for the occasion and it is expect ed that several hundred teacher and educational leaders will be in attend ance. In setting forth the objects and purposes of the conference, President Scott says:
 'Is it right that in many counties of this state the schools run only four months, while the average term in the United States is nearly eight months
 "Is it right that of the 260,0O0 white children in Mississippi only so per cent were in school last year, for even one day?
 -Is it right that of the average num- Der of children enrolled in our white schools last year, an average Of thirty six per cent of them were absent each day?
 1nThirty-seven states and territories had longer school terms last year than did Mississippi. Forty-six states and territories spent more for the educa- tion of each child in 1905-1906 than did our state.
 "Is it right that our country child ren should be taught by teachers who receive an average of $197 per year, while our town children have teachers who get an average of $475.59 per an- num?'
 President Scott states that these and other very pointed questions concern ing Mississippi's educational system will be discussed at the conference, and he urges full attendance from every county in the state.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inf1amed condition of the mucous lin- ing Of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have rum bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
 when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inf1amma ton can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition hear ing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh which is nothing but an inflamed con- dition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by
 catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circu- liars, free.

LITTLE TOM HILL
 A MARRIED MAN

Former Pine Bluff Boy Weds Miss
 Nina Martin. Prominent Little Rock
 Girl Secretly-Well Known in Pine
 Bluff.
 Tom Hill, a well known young man of Little Rock, who was born and reared in this city, is now benedict Mir. Hill has many friends in this city, where he figured in athletics on many many occasions and where his mother, Mrs. Maggie Hill Dunaway formerly resided. Speaking of the wedding, which was kept secret for some days, the Little Rock Gazette of yesterday says:
 After having been kept a secret for more than four months, news leak ed out yesterday of the secret mar riage of Tom Hill, a well known young man of this city, and Miss Nina Mar tin, daughter of County Assessor Chas. F. Martin The wedding took place on February 6, which was the sixteenth birthday anniversary of the bride. Hill 1 is 21 years of age and graduated from the High School this spring. The cer- emony was performed by the pastor of the German Lutheran church.
 The wedding was kept secret even from the immediate members of the family until yesterday, when Mrs. Hill informed the members of her family of the facts. She left last night for Memphis, where she will join her hus- band tomorrow morning and from that city they will go to Helena, where Hill has recently embarked in a moving picture enterprise.
 That the news of the wedding leak ed out when it did was due to the fact that the youthful bride told the secret to a cousin while she was visiting in Helena short time ago. Yesterday Hill telephoned his wife from Mem- phis >that the news had leaked out and that she had better tell her father and then join him in Memphis. Mrs Hill told the secret and at once prepared to join her husband, who is awaiting her at the Gayoso hotel in Memphis. She left at midnight for that city.
 At the Martin home last night it was stated that nothing was known of the wedding until yesterday. It was stat ed that the couple feared objections would be raised on account of the E youth of the bride. and that for that reason the secret marriage was de cided upon.
 4 curious coincidence in connection with the wedding is the fact that il took place on the birthday of the bride and that this is also the date of hel mothers birthday and her wedding an. niversary.
