 BUSY BOOSTING
SUPERINTENDENT OF THE RE- STARVATION TELLS WASHING
 TON A FEW THINGS.
Declares Hot Springs the Greatest Resort of the World and Shows
 Why Its Future Is Certain.

Harry H. Meyers, superintendent of the Hot Springs reservation, is in Washington on official business, and while there is making good his long established reputation as the biggest booster in Arkansas Here is the facts he presented to the Washington Herald to tell to Washingtonians:
 There is no resort in all the world that can compare in health grung proclivities to that of Hot Springs, Ark" said Harry L. Myers. vice pres ident of the National Republican League, attorney at law, and superin- tendent of tn government reservation at Hot Springs, at the Raleigh last night. T
 President Taft has signifled his in terest in Hot Springs by doing every thing in his power to make the resort popular and having it's numerous ad- yantages placed before the public in a proper manner. Hot Springs has all the resorts in the world beaten i'll many ways. Its waters are cure for eyeryehing. except the heart and lungs It is good for the dyspeptic.. 1t is good for the rheumatic; it is good for the blues and rundown system, and for everything in the calendar of human ailments l have known cases that we're given up by European spe- eialists, and who, after taking "a cure at Hot Springs, were restored to health.
 There is no reason why Americans should go abroad and spend their dollars at the European spas in quest of health, when there is spa right tn our own country which cannot be beaten in any respect.
 The government reservation com priaes something like 300 acres" said Mir. Myers, and there are forty-eight springs from which the healthrgiving water bubble and flow all day and every day since 1886, and comes hot enough to boil eggs in. One hundred and forty degrees Fahrenheit is the temperature of the water as it comes out of the ground. and people drink it at 110 degrees and bathe in it at 9S to 1l0 degrees. After a three weeks stay at Hot springs, person is com pletely renovatedt--in other words, through the agency of the waters every tissue of the human body is re built and every ailment is left be- hind
 There isn't a bath house in Hot Springs that hasn't It's collection of cruiches which were left by people cured of rheumatism, locomotor atax- ia, and kindred diseases. About 200,- GOO people take the cure at Hot Springs every year. but there are am pie opportunities to take care of 500,- 000. We have 600 hotels and board ing houses in Hot Springs; and so far as hotels are concerned, there isn5t hotel in either New York City CT Chicago that can beat the Hot Springs hotels so far as occommoda- tion in numbers and comfort is con cerned."

the following account of the accident to
Glenn Curtiss, the American aviator,
and his aeroplane at Rheims: "Curtiss
made two flights with beautiful facility,
landing each time after two minutes 10
tune up. The machine then sailed
away for the third time, and 1t was
evident that Curtiss was planning a
longer flight. But his motor became
erratic and then stopped, the wind
forcing him to an abrupt descent and
he fell heavily. The aeroplane is in a
sad state, and it is a question whether
he will be able to take part in the first
days meeting of Aviation week.
