HOME CANNING OUTFIT PAYS

We have owned Gamer about
five years and have had success
canning all kinds of fruits, berries,
beans, peas, okra, beets, and to-
matoes. The work is easily done,
can be done partly by children, and
after crops are laid by.
When canning be CAREFUL to fill
the cans full and uniformly. To-
matoes are the principal thing we
can for market. Any one who
will follow the directions sent with
the Gamer need not be afraid to
try canning. We have had our
canned goods on the market for
one year and don't dread any COM
petition of the large factories, for
when hand packed goods are once
used they are always bought. We
use No. 2 cans, and expect to can
5000 or 1000 cans this year, and
find that it pays much better than
working so much to make cotton.

and gives them nothing ia return.
And if Judge Hill is such a
good, great and wise lawyer that
he has no equal in the state, as the
Soliphone would have US believe,
would it not have been more wise
and statesmanlike for the governor
to have brought his entire infiu-
ence to bear upon Judge Hill in
an effort to keep him on the SUI
preme bench, instead of virtually
asking for his resignation by ten
dering him a more lucrative posi-
tion2 And this, too, in face of
the fact that the governor was
bound to have known that it would
cost the state $500 to elect a
successor to Judge Hill; and the
state verging upon a financial
crisis.
The Journal has no fight to
make upon Governor Donaghey, or
any other man, so long as he does
right, and follows the path of du-
ty, with an eye to the peoples in
terests.
But, unlike the Soliphone, we
have never yet reached the point
where we could applaud the every
act of a public servant, whether
right or wrong, merely to gain his
favor.
We do not believe there was
ever a man so bad but what there
was some good in him, or one so
good but what he did things he
should not have done.
When we say a man never did
wrong, we place him above human
fallibility and make him Divine,
therefore The Journal most re-
spectfully declines to bow with the
Soliphone at the feet of its Idol,
Governor Donaghey.
Of course, we have never had
the honor O. of being appointed
official puppet to the governor,
and we have never experienced
the ecstatic delight of being called
colonel (egadD but we are just
fool enough to believe that we
havn't missed a great deal.

OBITUARY

Sister Fannie Holcomb was born
August 81 1914. She married
Jack Holcomb, who died six years
ago, leaving her alone in the
world, for they were without
children. She spent the days of
her widowhood in the homes of
different relatives. Recently she
made her home with Mr.. and Mrs.
j. 2. Magness. Where she seem
ed perfectly satisfied and seemed
as devoted to their children as if
they they had been her own.
Aunt Fannie, /" as she was famil-
larry called had kind word for
everyone, and everybody was her
friend. She was true christian
and a devoted member of the New
ark Baptist church. She leaves
one sister and three brothers and
their children, besides the MEM
bers of her church and large
circle ofother relatives and friends.
But they weep not for her as
those that have no hope.
Mourn not the dead who calmly lie,
By Gods own hand composed to rest;
For Hank! a voice from yonder sky,
Proclaims them blest-supremely blest.
With them the toll and strife are DER,
Their labors end, thier sorrows cease,
For they have gained the blissful
shore
Where dwells serene eternal peace.
Drop the warm tear, for Jesus wept;
Sorrow shall find relief in tears,
But let no secret grief be kept
To waste the sonl through nameless
years;
They rest in hope; thier hallowed dust
Is watched; and from the grave shall
rise;
Earth shall restore her sacred trust
Made all immortal for the skies;''

The Batesville Guard and the
Paragould Soliphone represent
the two extremes of sentiment to
ward Governor Donaghey. The
governor never did a single thing
that the Guard commended him
for, and he never did single
thing that the Soliphone criticised
him for.

Much sickness is of nervous
origin. It's the nerves that
make the heart force the blood
through the veins, the lungs
take in oxygen, the stomach di-
gest food, the liver secrete bile
and the kidneys filter the blood.
If any of these organs are weak,
it is the fault of the nerves
through which they get their
strength. DR.. Miles Nervine is
specific for the nerves. 1t
soothes the irritation and assists
in the generation of nerve force.
Therefore you can hardly miss
it if YOU take DIR. Miles Nervine
when sick. Get a bottle from
your druggist. Take it all ac-
eording to directions, and if it
does not benefit he will return
your money.

ter astonlshment that so good q
newspaper man as the veteran ed
itor of the Paragould Soliphone
could be induced to sell himself
for the hollow mockery of being
permitted to play soldier for few
days.
Did you ever see boy with his
first pair of red-top boots, across
the toe of which were pieces of
shining brass, which the proud
owner had rubbed and polished
until he could almost see himself
in theml
Uncle John bought them for the
boy, and by that act he established
himself in the boys estimation, at
once, Immediately and forever, as
the greatest, noblest and sublimest
of men. Uncle John was IT, and
forever thereafter whatever he
did was right, so far as the boy
was concerned.
This is a fair illustration of the
Soliphone's attitude toward Gov
ernor Donaghey.
Some time ago the governor
wrote Brother Taylor: Come
down to Little Rock, my boy, and
I'll give you pair of soldiers
boots and spurs and a big tin
sword, and make you adjutant
general of that mighty and fear
less army, the Arkansas State
Guard"
When this message was deliver
ed to the doughty old wa boss as
he sat at his desk, he brought down
his fist on the desk with such force
that the pastepot jumped clear to
the ceiling. Gosh dernl where's
my hatlo he shouted and lit
shuck for Little Rock, not even
waiting to investigate his eligibil-
ity; and from that day to this,
asleep or awake, sick or well,
sober or - oh, we'll, just any
time you might ask him to name
the greatest living American, he
assumes stately salute and
mechanically replies, "Guv. e-nor
Don-e-gay."
Because of The Journals recent
criticism of Governor Donaghey's
action in creating the necessity for
the recent special election, the
Soliphone jumps onto US with both
feet, and in its frenzied attempt to
defend the governor, makes some
glaring mis- statements of facts
that entitle it to active member
ship in the Annanias Club.
The Journal most emphatically
denies saying there are thousand
lawyers in the state who can handle
the railroad rate litigation as we'll
as Judge Hill. We said Gov.
Donaghey could not find a lawyer
in the state capable of handling the
job without taking a Judge off the
supreme bench, although there is
probably a thousand lawyers in
the state, many of whom have won
success and distinction in their
profession. y
Judge Hill did not resign until
after Governor Donaghey appoint
ed him as special counsel in the
railroad rate litigation, and nobody
knows this better than does Col
Taylor.
The Soliphone says: The va
cancy on the supreme bench hav
ing occurred, it was the duty of
the governor to call the special
election.
The Journal comedies that it
was, but we deny that it was the
duty, or even the moral right, of
the governor to disorganlze the
highest tribunal in the state by
appointing its chief justice to
more lucrative. but less important
position, especially when, by SO
doing, be incurs and expenditure

cURTIss AVOIDS COLLISION
WITH ANOTHER AERoPLANE

RHEIMS, Aug. 19.-The American
aviator, Glenn H. Curtiss, at sundown
today added a dramatic feature to the
trial flights of aeroplanes entered for
the contests of aviation week by skill
fully guiding his machine above an
other aeroplane, thus averting a col
lision.
The feat was accomplished when, for
the first time in history, three heavier
than air craft were maneuvering to-
gether at the same time. All were fly
ing rapidly when suddenly Curtiss saw
Dumanset in an Antoinette monoplane
approaching at right angles and on the
save level with him. Curtiss, realizing
the danger, elevated his plane. His
machine instantly shot upward and
scared safely over the Frenchman.
Spectators watched the maneuver
with bated breath, but when they saw
1t was successfully and brilliantly car
ried out, they applauded the American
wildly. The third machine in the air
at this time was that of M. Tissandier.
Experts tonight were agreed that Mr..
Curtiss had made fine demonstration
OF his skill and ability to control his
machine. They declare that his BIZ
plane was a real racer.
The wind, which had been blowing
for two days. suddenly died out at sun
down, and the aviators rushed to the
sheds and dragged out their machines
Count de Lambert in a Wright model
was the first to start and make a COM
plete circuit of the aerdrome. M. Tis-
sander. also on Wright biplane, fol-
lowed him. Then the Curtiss machine,
looking smaller and more compact than
the others, was placed in position for
flight

DENVER, Colo, Aug. 19.-Cloud-
bursts in Southern Colorado caused
further damage by floods late today
The downpour at Trinidad was said to
be the worst since 1904. Several bridges
over the Purgatoire river were washed
out and the tracks of the Colorado &
Southern railroad were torn away In
places. A force of men was put to
work piling up sand bags to keep the
river in its channel, the concrete wall
having given away in many places.
In other parts of the state flood con-
ditions were improving. The flood in
the Royal Gorge is subsiding.
Another cloudburst occurred at Four
Mile creek this afternoon, which again
transformed the stream into raging
torrent and swelled the river at that
point.
The Royal Gorge itself is a mass
of tangled debris. The famous hang
ing bridge is covered with sand and de-
brs three feet deep.
Both the Denver & Rio Grande and
Colorado Midland railways are operat-
ing trains west of Leadville, but regu-
lar traffic has not been resumed.
Today the river at Florence washed
out 100 yards of reinforced embank-
ment. It has been raining there al
most constantly for the last twenty
four hours.

WRIGHTS BRING
DAMAGE SUITS
AVlAT0RS CLAIM HERING-C UR-
TISS is INFRINGEMENT
Aeronauts Sue Aeronautic Society and
Demand Aeroplane of Competitor
Be Turned over to Them
for Destruction
(By Associated Press.0

NEW YORK, Aug. 19.-Wilbur
Wright and Orville Wright, the await
ors, today sued the Aeronautic society
of this city, alleging that the Herring
Curtiss aeroplane, which the society re-
Gently purchased, is an infringement on
their patents.
The Wrights demand the machine be
turned over to them for destruction,
and in addition ask that the court
assess damages for threefold the
amount of whatsoever losses they are
found to have suffered by reason of
the infringement and the public eXhi-
bition or rental of the machine.
Aeronautic experts generally viewed
the suit as in the nature of a test case,
brought to determine legally whether
the Wright patents cover effectually all
aeroplanes constructed along similar
lines.
Regarded in this light, 1t was pointed
out, the suit probably will have most
important bearing on the development
of aerial navigation.
In the bill of complaint the Wrights
declare their claims to the sole rights
in heavier-than-air flying machines of
this type "have been recognized by the
United States government, which has
purchased some of the machines, while
the sovereigns of other countries have
given similar acknowledgment"

NEW YORK, Aug. 19-Herman Gott-

to-do families in New York who have
pet cats to warrant him in becoming
q peddler of catnip.
He first tried to sell some at One
Hundredth street and Fifth avenue.
In doing so he dropped some to the

cat
AS Gottlieb proceeded the odor from
his basket attracted others. By the
time he reached One Hundred and
Sixteenth street there were between
fifty and 100 cats following him and
when he halted. they surrounded him
and the longer he remained there the
larger the aggregation of excited felines
became, all struggling to get at the
basket.
The cats attracted as many children
ana as the easiest solution of the puz-
zling matter, the police arrested Gott-
lieb and took him to the station in

Although the horses were whipped

TAFT'S CHAUFFEUR IS
CENSURED FOR SPEED
DRIVER OF PRESIDENTS AUTO
WILL CUT DOWN PACE.
Chief Executive Is Busy Arranging
His Addresses for His South
ern and Western
Trip

BEVERLY, Mass, Aug. 19.--Presi-
dent Taft is not an automobile scorcher,
according to an official statement made
today.
Stories that have gone abroad about
the great speed at which President
Taft's chauffeur takes him along the
smooth oiled roadways about Beverly
brought letters of protest from timid
admirers of Mr.. Taft These urge that
Robinson, who drives the president, be
instructed to use more care.
The president does like TO go fast
when out In a machine, but to reas-
sure those who have taken the in
terest to write it is announced that
Robinson has specific instructions not
to exceed twenty miles an hour at
any time and that the needle on the
speed meter, which remains fixed at
maximum speed until reset, never now
adays shows a fraction above the
twenty-mile mark.
President Taft is giving more thought
to the many speeches to be made on
his long western and southern trip.
and also to his annual message to con-
'gress. The president has thought out
the general plan of his message; he
has several cabinet officers at work
on the details of it, and will not take
up the work of assembling the docu-
ment until week or so before con-
gress is to gather. The message is
not likely to be long one.
Personnel of Taft's Party
The personnel of the presidents trav-
cling party has been completed. John
Hays Hammond, Capt. Archibald W.
Butts, military aide; Wendell w
Mischler, assistant secretary: DR.. J..
G. Richardson of Washington. d. c.;
James Sloan, jr., and l.. c. Wheeler of
the secret service, and Major Arthur
Brooks, the presidents confidential
messenger, who just now is fighting
with the red army of invasion about
the Boston bay, will accompany the
president. Six newspaper men will
make the entire trip.
It virtually was decided today to in
clude Ogden, Utah, in the list of stop-
ping places. This change will necessi-
tate a curtailment of the stay in Salt
Lake City, and was arranged in ac-
cordance with a request from the
Utah committee.
The president will reach Salt Lake
City late in the afternoon of Friday,
September a. On the way to Salt Lake
1t had been arranged that there should
be a stop of an hour or more at Provo,
Utah. The president will be in Butte
Monday morning, September 27, and
the stay in Ogden will probably be on
the Sunday preceding.
The mail man brought to the execu-
tive office this morning a stuffed gray
suede elephant, about IL inches high,
addressed to President Taft. The little
fellow had g. o. p. stamped on one sids
and one ear. On the front of the ele-
phant was traced a picture of the pres
ident, and underneath were the words,
Sunny Bill" The elephant came from

CASUALTY COMPANY GIVEN
VERDICT IN THEFT CASE
Clause in Policy Exempts Under
writer's Unless Money Is Taken
by Felonious Entry

LOUISVILLE, Ky, Aug. 19.-The
Kentucky court of appeals has handed
down a decision in favor of casualty
company in a bank burglary case. The
policy exempted the company from
liability unless the money was taken
from the safe by feonious entry, by
the use of tools or explosives
In the case in point the cashier of
the bank was forced by the robbers to
open the safe at the point of a gun,
and the bank sought to collect from the
insurance company holding that the
contract was complied with because
the cashier was, in a sense, the tool of
the burglars. The court admitted this
point was correct but held that the
term tool" was different from that
involved in the contract, which referred
to burglars tools.
