HOLDS FISH LAW VALID.
Supreme Court Affirms Decision
Against Shipper.

Against Shipper.
Little Rock-The supreme court
has decided the case of Louis Fritz
against the state. The indictment
was based on the law which makes
game or fish from the state, and pro-
vides a penalty of from 500 to $500.
Fritz had shipped some fish to
Memphis, but relied on the fact that
he caught them from an inland lake,
and from that part of the lake Dor
dering on property to which he had
fee simple title as a defense. How
ever, he was fined for the offense
and appealed.
The supreme court held the law
against shipping game from the state
is valid, under former opinions of
the court, and that the evidence JUS
titled the verdict against Fritz. Hence
it is affirmed.
Interpreting the law for the state
to be that any decree, foreign or do
nestle, may be renewed or taken up
by parties in actions at law in this
state, The supreme court handed
down an opinion in the case of Jor-
dan vs.. Muse. The action was brought
by Muse to revive a decree rendered
against Jordan by the chancery court
of Henderson County, Tenn, in 1899.
The judgment was never satisfied,
and in 1907 Muse undertook reviver
suit. Jordan claimed the action was
barred by the statute of limitations,
since it had been more than five
years since the decree of the Tennes-
see court The supreme court holds
the limitation of five years was ap-
piled in this state prior to 1874, but
in that year an enactment provided
that DEGREES and judgments might
be taken up within ten years.

Beckmann was at his hotel when

$3.50 charges on it, and wanted to
know whether she should accept it

"Paragould," replied the stenogra-

Fort Smith.-It is announced on

Fort Smith and Western railroad,
will Immediately assume the duties
of the president of that road in place
of President A. C. Dustin of Cleve-
land

tiers in st. Louis, instead of Fort
Smith, as formerly. 1t is understood
that official confirmation of the ap-
pointment of Mr.. Crane to his new
duties will be sent out from the offices
of President Dustin in a few days.
The change in the management of
the road has been brought about by
the press of business which has been
put upon President Dustin by his ap-
pointment as receiver for the defunct
municipal road, Mayor Johnson's
Scent line In addition to his duties
as receiver, President Dustin's large
legal practice in Cleveland made it
imperative. upon him to turn the rail-
road business over to Mr.. Crane.

Messina and Reggie Will Be Rebuilt

Rome, Italy-Messina and Reggie
will be rebuilt This is the message
brought to Rome Monday by Cardinal
Nava, Archbishop of Catania, who ar
rived from Messina
"The destruction of these cities"
said the Archbishop, lis just as COM
plete as the most extravagant. stories
have pictured, but the commercial ad
vantage of their sites is such that
they must be rebuilt.
ut will take a generation for these
cities to recover and it will be a quar-
ter of a century before Messina's
glory is restored. There is absolutely
citizens of Messina and Reggie to
abandon the towns. Many of the
smaller towns, however, will not be
rebuilt. Some of these are literally
blotted out and as their sites had no
peculiar advantage, it would be cheap
er and easier for the people to estab-
lish other towns
$4,000 Bodies in the Ruined Cities.
Director Palermo of the government
chemical laboratory and Vice-Director
Lutrario of the department of public
health left for Messina and Reggie
Monday. They say that from the best
estimates obtainable, $4,000 bodies are
buried in the ruins of Messina alone.
The rescuers are now weighing the
bodies and sinking them in the Straits
of Messina. Apprehension is felt that
if all the bodieG are dumped into the
straight a fearful contamination will
follow.
The pope said that he would con-
tribute all of the jubilee fund to the
sufferers. This fund has been raised
in all parts of the world and amounts
to large SUM.

Arkansas Cotton Seed in Demand.

Arkansas cotton-seed products are
this year keeping live stock of Kan
sas and will guarantee the sugar
planters of Louisiana good crops. The
demand for cotton-seed cake and meal
from these two states this year has
put the price up, and cotton oil men
of this section are holding on to all
they have not sold on contract, for
they anticipate a healthy rise in the
meal between now and time for
planting in the spring. The high
price of grain in Kansas has forced
the farmers there to turn to some
thing cheaper, and they are buying
largely of cracked cake, the cotton
meal cake broken into Jumps the size
of a walnut. In Louisiana the meal
is taken, no matter what the condi-
ton of it may be, so long as it has
the properties for rejuvenating the
soil This gives the oil mills a
chance to work up all their overhead
ed seed and dispose of the produce
for fertilizer.

Why don't you buy 100 acres of the
Canadian Pacific Railway Company's
Land in sunny Alberta, Calgary Dis
trict, Canada, a home for yourself or
for the boy, or for an investment? You
can get it for from SIS to $25 per acre,
irrigated and non-ir,igated. Half ir-
rigated and half non-irrigated makes
an ideal farm that produces from 80 to
IS bushels of wheat, from so to 1876 bush
els of oats, from 40 to So bushels of bar
ley and as high aston tors of alfalfa to
the acre. You al buy this land on the
Ip annual payments or crop payment
plan, with s per cent interest. This
land produces their crops without irri-
CATION. Irrigating increases the yields
often 10 bushels per acre. The best in
vestment on the market today. This
