Young Man Gets Two Years.

Edward M Martin has been sen fenced to two years in the peniten- tiary by Judge Lea in the first divis- ion of the circuit court, after Martin had entered plea of guilty to two charges of obtaining money under false pretenses. Martin was indict- ed on three charges and the third indictment was nolle pressed after he had pleaded guilty on two indict- ments. Martin was sentenced to one year on each charge to which he had pleaded guilty. Martin was arrested at St. Louis several weeks ago after his wife had notified the police that he was wanted on a charge of desert ing from the United States army. Af- ter Martin was arrested his wife claimed that she had given this fn- formation simply in order to secure trace of him, but it then developed that he was wanted in Little Rock OH the charge of having cashed several worthless checks.

May Lose Positions.

Washington.-The greatest shake up'' that ever has occurred in the personnel of the Department of Con- merce and Labor took place Tuesday when about hundred employees were reduced and resignations of about 10 others accepted. This action was taken by Secretary Nagel as the re- suit of an investigation into the "ef- ficiency recwd" of the employees in his department. The reductions were made, it is stated, because the em- ployes were found to have "loafed on the job,' while those allowed to re- sign were found to be inefficient.

To Save Money For State.

To Save Money For State.
 One oef the most important meet lngs of the penitentiary board of this year, in which retrenchment and re- form will play the most important part in the proceedings, and at which ac- tion is expected to be taken which will reduce the expenses of the in- stitutions about $4,000 a month, will be the one that will be held this week. The meeting will be an ad- journed session, and no one will be allowed to be present except the members and the secretary It will be the most secret session that has been held by the board for many years. The members propose to in- dulge in a heart-to-heart talk on the the penitentiary without interfering with the successful operation of the institution. The elimination of some of the expenses of the penitentiary proper, the Reform School and the state farm is contemplated by the board. It is proposed that all the frills that cost money, and which may be deemed unnecessary for the practical operation of the institution, shall be cut out and in manner that shall be binding upon all the em- ployes. There are 12 acres in culti- vation at the Reform School which requires the use of four mules and one horse A proposition will be made to sell two of these mules to the penitentiary. The abandonment of the old penitentiary will be con sidered, which would result in the concentration of authority at the new penitentiary. The authorities at the old penitentiary are allowed the use of seven horses, and it is the inten- tion to send four of these to the state farm. The board contemplates that work on the new state capitol will soon be resumed and it expects to re- ceive considerable revenue from this source. The members have been in- formed that the capitol will require the use of 50 teams on the work, all of which teams will have to come from the state farm. It is proposed to charge the commissin S3.50 per day for each team, to be paid to the penitent'ary out of the state capitol fund, which will amount to $175 per day. The board also intends to au- thorize the discharge of about 22 pupils from the Reform School who were committed to the institution for indefinite terms by the county judges of the various counties in the state. By reducing the number of pupils, the expense of maintaining the school will be correspondingly reduced. By the proposed method of retrenchment in expenses, the board hopes to effect saving in expenses of from S4,OOO to $5,0oC a month.

To Aid Corn Club DeIinquents.

The deputy state superintendent of public instruction has mailed a letter of inquiry to the chairman of the Boys Corn Club Committee in each county where clubs have been organ ized, asking each to send to the de- partment the number of clubs in the county and the number of members in each, and also for information as 70 what steps have been taken to se- cure prize exhibit for display at the Arkansas State Fair at Hot Springs. It is stated that some of the coun- ties have made but little preparation for exhibits of this kind and the ob- feet of the educational department in seeking the information asked for is to aid other such counties in the preparation of their exhibits. It is he intention of J. A. Evans, district representative of United States farm work, to go to the assistance of each county that has not arranged for the election of it's prize exhibits. by send ing one of his experts to help out the committee in it's work.

Little Rock July 13.-Earl Dill, who is charged with committing an as- sault upon Miss Ray Burkhalter in broad daylight in the Pythian hall at Fifth and Main streets several weeks ago, will be compelled to go to trial before jury maue up of citi- zens of Pulaski county. This was de- cided Monday night about 8 o'clock when Judge Lea, after one of the most determined legal battles ever made in the local courts on a point of this character, overruled the mo- tion for a change of venue filed by the defense. Immediately after Judge Lea had ruled on this motion, Lewis Rhoton of the firm of Bradshaw, Rho- ton 6 Helm, who are representing Dill, notified Judge Lea that he de- sired to file a motion to postpone the trial of the case for two weeks. He declared that this did not constitute a formal motion for a continuance, but simply request that the trial be postponed for two weeks in order to enable the defense to make neces- sary preparations.

School For Cotton Farmers.

Much interest is being expressed in the Farmers Union cotton grading school which is to be conducted in Little Rock, July 19 to August 29, and the scope of the school, which was first intended merely as a course of instruction for the farmers in grad ing their own cotton. will be broaden. ed to take ir a study of the different forms of cotton. the soils and how to combat the boil weevil J. Aston Clapp of this city, who will be the instructor of the school, as he has been in the two past years, says the inquiries he has already received con. vinces him the school this year will be much larger than either of those held in Conway. He has not yet se- lected the place where the school will be held, but it will be in one of the local cotton warehouses where the men will have the environment to urge them on in their work. Those attending the school will be given a diploma at the close of the course. They will then have knowledge not only in cotton grading, but in the keering of books for a cotton ware house, know how to protect his cot ton after it has been ginned, how to prepare the different kinds of soil for cotton and what to do to get out of the way of the boil weevil, if such a thing is possible The course is open only to members of the Farm CTS Union, and as the matriculation fee has been placed at S5, the low price is expected to bring several hundred young men here during the school.

Meeting of Tuberculosis Fighters

Meeting of Tuberculosis Fighters.
 Electing Dr. J. $. Shibley Of Paris superintendent of the state tuberculo- sis sanitarium, the Tuberculosis Sani- tarium Board at meeting last week launched the first definite plans for the institution. Instructions to leave as soon as possible on trip through the best sanitariums of the country to get in touch with the most modern ideas in construction and treatment, were given Dr. Shibley by the board. The board considered the offers of sites for the sanitarium, sitting out seven as practicable and deciding to the owners can be obtained. A state ment of the requirements which will be made of the site for the sanita- rum was given out by the board, fol lowing the meeting. "The sanita- rum should be located south of the Boston range of mountains" the state ment says, "and will need a large tract of land, at least 1000 acres. The site should be in a section free from malaria, where the drainage is good and the streams fresh and whole some; the soil should be sandy or rocky in order that there may be as little dampness as possible. Pine lands where the timber has been cut off is preferable, and it must be where the transportation facilities are ade- quate for patients to come from all parts of the state. Several lumber companies have generously offered to donate tracts of 1000 acres or more of cut-over land, and others have of fered to sell at reduced prices. The board intends to locate it at the best place for the purpose, and if it can obtain the land by donation it will be grateful, but if the best place for it must be purchased it will make the purchase. The great consideration is getting the location where the con- dition of the climate and the drain age and transportation indicate the best results can be obtained in the work of healing consumptives."

CALLS FOR COUNTY CONNECTS.
Jackson County Roads Are to Be
 Worked

Newport Judge H. s. Sim mons has taken the initial step to- ward securing for Jackson cross county turnpike. The start was made in the order of his court calling for Che services of the 16 state convicts from Jackson county, as authorized under the Patterson act of the last legislature. Judge Simmons idea is to first complete a rock road east from Newport through Union and Village townships to the county line and upon the completion of this road to build south from Newport to the county line, using the road tax of each district upon that part of the road within it's borders. As Union township has road tax of approxi- mately $6,000, this would give the movement a good start.
