Old Friends Pass Through.

Mr.. and Mrs. o. E. Hodge
passed through Winfield on last
Tuesday enroute home from the
Carnival. The Sentinel is always
glad to meet its friends, especially
those who have been such great
factors IN building WINFIELD to
its present magnitude. 1t will be
remembered that Mr.. o. E. Hodge
and Mr.. j. 5. Hunt came to
Winfield just a few years ago
and started small planning mill
at Calvin, and also put in the
Sulphur Timber 6 Lumber Co.'s
mill here, and now own one of
the largest milling plants in North
Louisiana, this plant being locat-
ed at Hodge. La. There is, no
doubt, a great future for these
two young men and nothing af-
fords more pleasure than to see
young men start out with nothing
and build themselves up to q
million dollar proposition in five
or six years, as these two young
men have done. Give us more
young men like these.

That Social Club?

What is the matter with the
young men organizing a literary

are free and without other attrac-

weekly or semi-weekly meetings.
Such an organization would prove
highly beneficial from an intellec-
tusl point of view, and profitably
enjoy the evenings. Who will

The character Of the disease for
which any operations would be neces-

ABATEMENT IN ENGLAND.
Fact That Peary Found No Traces of
Cook Exctes Comment.

London. Sept. 1T needed but the
amazing announcement of Pearys sue
cess in reaching the north pole. so hot
upon Cooks arrival in Europe with the
same news, to complete the astonish-
ment of geographers and the public
generally.
No longer could the slightest doubt
be entertained that to America unre-
servedly belonged the proud honor of
planting the flag for the first time at the
north pole. Since it could not be given
to an Englishman to win this honor.
the British people extend their hearth
est congratulations to the American
people. Their wish now is that Shac-
kleton may succeed in planting the
British flag ut the other pole.
Wonder is excited that Peary is not
yet aware that he has been forestaled.
His statement that he did not come
across any traces of Cooks expedition
also causes surprise.
Sir George Mares. who commanded
an arctic expedition in 1875, comments
on the fact that Peary's ESkimos at
Etah apparently did not know that
Cook crossed Smiths sound and Etah
last winter and says: isn't this ii pc
culiar fact? Wouldn't it be just possi-
BILE that Dr.. Cook had learned of Pea
RVS success and was making an effort
to reach civilization first with the pri-
ority claim of having discovered the
pole?"
Captain Il. T. Scott said: "Peary's
message raises very interesting stu
alton and means n battle as to who
was the first to reach the pole. 1t will
have TO he fought out in America"
The London newspapers comment
enthusiastically on Peary's success and
give min fnli credit.

Coronation Lunches,

snack upon record is undoubtedly
that piece of cold chicken which was

Lord Gwydyr in the gallery Of West

the authorized rcfreshment Of the
highest pers0nages is apt to be rather
unconvcationaily served on these oc-
crrions. Queen Victoria tells In her

crowgcd she "renA!red with all the
reers bearing the rcgalia, my ladies
ard trainbearers, To st. Edwards

lie chapel than anything he had

tar was covered with sandwiches. bot

PETRIFIED EGGS.

Science has evolved new
method of preserving eggs to a
ripe and respected old age. The
eggs are first sterilized in compress
ed carbon dioxide and then dropped
carefully into a mixture of carbon
dioxide, nitrogen and hydrogen at a
freezing temperature. AS result
of this heroic treatment eggs can be
kept ten months at a cost of thirty
eight cents per thousand and still
be fresh enough to fool a discrimi-
mating clearinghouse proprietor.
If the method suggested is still
further improved, the time may
come when chemistry laboratory
will be a necessary adjunct to every
chicken-coop, and when hens will
not work for their contemporaries,
but for posterity.
