 secured in a compromise of headlight suits at the Ozark court. The statutes under which these suits were brought are very explicit in stating that the
 suits shall be brought for viola tion of the railroad commission, and money collected, but it does
 not say what shall be done with the money when it is paid in. In order to swell the general reve.
 nue fund this has been added to it, after lying in the treasury unassigned for several weeks. Auditor lobe and Treasurer Yates called on Attorney Gener- al Norwood several days ago and asked him to what fund the money should be credited. He read the law carefully and came to the conclusion that as no fund was specified, the legislature doubtless intended that the gen. eral revenue fund should profit by all collections made through penalty suits, and agreed to have the homeless and cold cash transferred from a nameless col umn to the general revenue fund.

Ginseng His Fortune.

Marshall, May 23. Two years ago B. M. Gibson, of this place, planted 47,000 ginseng seed as an experiment and as result today he is the owner of 57,00O plants worth seven and half cents each. In addition to this the seed alone will this year pay a heavy interest on the total amount inve sted, and all eXpen ses of raising the crop. The crop which looked like failure the first year has developed into one of the richest that could be produced. The chief market for ginseng is among the Chinese who consider it panacea.

WHAT THE GLIDDEN
 AUT0ISTS WILL DO

The average length of each days run for this years Glidden tour, says the Automobile, is 198 miles, as compared with IFS last season. Although each daily trip this year will practic. ely be one hour longer than last year, yet the pace will remain the same, namely, 20 miles au hour for the large cars, IS for cars listing from $500 to $1 ,600, and 10 miles an hour for those sellin@ below $500.
 In spite Of the high daily mile age, there are only five days on which the schedule exceeds the 200 mile mark, and these are trips over the good road territo- " beGinnipg at Texarkana and ending at Davenport, the routes being; 1exarkana to Dallas, PIT miles; Dallas to Lawtor, POO miles; Oklahoma to Wichita, 216 miles; Wichita to Kansas City, 234 miles: Kansas City to Omaha, 242 miles. and Des Moines to Do,n,,,>,,,t O10 ,,,;Io~
 h contrast tJ these long runs are several short ones, namely, Cincinnati to Louisville, 162 miles; Nashville to Sheffield, 119 miles; Hot Springs to Texarkana 131 miles, and Sunday morning run of 60 miles from Little Rock to Hot Springs.
 The Monday run from Hot Springs to Philadelphia will be one of the harde st days on the trip. Originally it was to have been trip of 191 miles, but ow- ing to the 50 mile run from Little Rock to Hot Springs being made on Sunday, the Monday trip will be reduced to 131 miles. Of these remaining 131 miles 80 are particularly hilly, these hills ranging from one quarter to one eighth mile in length and some with grades as high as 20 per cent. This is one of the poorest selling sections of the trip, the the country being wooded nearly all the way. Once Philadelphia is passed the troubles of the tour are over, so far as roads are con- cerned, the ren ainder of the run to Chicago being through con- tinuous agricultural territory. To Texarkana the road is level, and through cotton and corn country.

MY ONE COMPANY
 WILL MAKE THE TRIP

Little Rock, May 23.-Unless
 bne kind angel comes to earth hdputs a considerable sum of
 kp real stuff into the treasury of
 Arkansas National Guard,
 ut one regiment, the First, will Ike in the joint manouvers at
 0n Springs, Tex, with the
 gular army this summer.
 Major E. B. Jett has just com. Rhted an estimate of the cost of ting one regiment to Leon
 blings, figuring on mileage for
 ecompanies of the First, and |hds that it will cost in the |dghborhood of S2S,700 to move lnd maintain this regiment for ROweeks at tn, Texas camp grounds. As the militia has but lttle more to spend than this mount, even though the funds e enanipulated to cut off some lnOr departments and swell the 'ncampment fund, there is little nance for the Second regiment Ftting to Texas yhis year.
