'-atarrh Cured
Accept Our Advice and Try This
Remedy at Our Risk.

Catarrh is a disease of the mucous
membrane. The mucous membrane is,
one may say, the interior lining of
the body. Catarrh therefore may
exist in any part of the system.
When the catarrhal poison attacks
the mucous membrane, Inflammation
and congestion are produced and ma
ture fails to throw off the accumu-
lated pOisons. The organ which has
been afflicted ceases to perform its
proper function as nature intended it
should. The result is, complication
upon complication, which may lead
to other even more serious Attic
| tions.
We honestly believe Rexall Mucu-
Tone will do wonders toward over
coming catarrh. 1t is made from the
prescription of an eminent physician
who made long study of catarrh,
and his great success with this rem
edy was an enviable one.
We want you If you are a sufferer
from catarrh in any form, to give
ReXall Mucu-Tone a thorough trial.
Use it with regularity and persist
ency for a reasonable time, then il
you are not satisfied, come bach
and tell us, and without question OF
Formally we will hand back to you

RIOT ON BALL FIELD
Empires are Assaulted in Game
 at Little Rock.
Decision of O'Brien fingers Fans, Who At tack Arbiters with Pop
 Bottles.

Little Rock, Aug. 20 Little Rock baseball fans were treated to an exhibit of John o Brien's ineffi- . ciency as an umpire yesterday af- ternoon and only the prompt action of officers prevented his being roughly handled by the mob which surged onto the ball6eld. O'Brien forfeited the game to Memphis, Q to and was held under the stand until the crowd was some what scattered. He was then es- corted through back gate to a buggy and hurriedly driven to the city. Umpire Rudderham, who was officiating with him. received gash on the head from pop bot tie thrown by a ruffian in the bleaChers.
 The game had gone through to the last of the eighth inning, Lit- tie Rock playing like cross cour- try lot up until that time, allowing Memphis to make 6 runs while the Travellers were getting They made error after error on the easiest kind of chances, allowing Memphis to run up the score. Fi- nally O. Brien called Memphis runner out on the plate, when he was apparently safe and the fans horot, at the t,n,nIya
 In the eighth inning Little Rock filled the bases and Sentz hit hot grounder down the first base line. It knocked dust out of the top of the bag as it passed over. The ball went to deep right field and two runners had crossed and the other was almost at the plate when O'Brien called 1t a foul.

second baseman, took the lead in the remarks which were addressed to the umpire. o Brien finally ordered him from the game and grounds. Flood refused to go. O'Brien pulled his watch and Flood went to the bench, Manager Finn advising him to stay and or dering O Brien from the grounds.
 Rudderham, who was calling de- cisions on the bases, rushed in and went to Brien's assistance. He made a defiant remark to the bleachers, who had swarmed up to the wire netting which held them from the field As he turned away a pop bottle took him beside the head. The umpire was rushed to the players bench and water poured on his head. He then made an effort to get to the bleachers when he was stopped. o Brien then for feited the game and went into secluded spot beneath the grand stand until he could be taken from the grounds.
 This is the same umpire who has been escorted from the field in Atlanta, Montgomery, Birming- ham and other cities of the circuit to keep him from being mobbed Should he appear on the field this afternoon it is feared the angered fans will make another attempt to get vengance. Umpire Fitzsim- mons was in the stand and also went to O'Brien's rescue.

PETITION BEING
 CIRCULATED TODAY IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT To be Organized by City Council
 at Next Meeting.
First Petition Requires Only Ten Signers, but Many are Anxious to
 Attach Names.

The first step toward securing waterworks was taken this after noon, when Secretary G. l.. Banner of the Board of Trade began the circulation of petition asking the city council to organize the entire city of Conway into sn improve ment district for the purpose ot constructing system of water works.
 The petition, under the law af- fecting improvement districts, re- quires the signatures of only ten owners Of real property within the proposed district, in order to make } it mandatory upon the council to pass an ordinance organizing the district and establishing its limits. So anxious are the people, how ever, to secure this great improve ment, that many are volunteering to sign the petition and it will probably bear many times the re- quired number of names before be- ing presented to the council.
 The petition will be given to the council at its regular meeting on next Tuesday night. After the passage of the ordinance organiz- ing the district, majority in value of the owners of real estate in the city must, within three months. present to ths council a petition asking that a waterworks system be constructed, after which the council will appoint an i'm provement board of three citizens to carry on the work.
 Where are we going to get the water?" is a question with which Secretary Banner is occasionally confronted. He states that no definite plan has been decided up on because there is probably no one familiar enough with such problems to decide absolutely. i've know, however, states MT. Banner, "that we can get water and plenty of it, because there is always the Arkansas river to fall back on, if every other scource should prove insufficient.

Ice doesn't form very rapid

Ice doesn't form very rapidly this weather, even in the vats of the ice factory. The temperature of the past week has been so high that the local plant has found it impossible to make ice enough for the demand and had to import a car from Little Rock. During excessively hot weather, the tenn perature of the water used in cool ing the ammonia pipes is so high as to greatly retard the freezing pro cess, while the demand for ice in creases apace.
