EXPECT TO BREAK RECORDS
"ienn II. Curtiss and Other Ayiators Confident of Making New Records
 at Memphis Meet April 6.9.

Memphis, March 25.-Accordinc to promises many new worlds aerial records will be established at the National Aviation Meet, to be held Tn this city April G., s and Q. The crippled engine which Glenn II. Chr. tiss declares prevented him from mak. ing even more wonderful records at the first National meet at Los An. geleS has been replaced by a new one and thus equipped Curtiss expects Tn deal bitter disappointment to panl. nan, Hamilton and Willard.
 Hamilton and Willard are botb confident that they will land the very honors Curtiss hopes to carry away next month and indications are that the bird-men will have a furious tght rom start to finish for each of inc records they are striving for
 when Hamilton let Paulhan take the altitudinal record away from him Tn February he declared that his da. feat was all the fault of defective engine in the Curtiss machine he was using. In a newspaper interview gwen out at Seattle when he had his last tumble, Hamilton is quoted as saying that 'he can take Curtiss' own machines at the next National meet and beat the inventor himself for height, time and sustained flight.n Whether Hamilton will be able to make good his boast remains to be seen and in the meantime other aviators are scheming to take both his and Curtiss' scalp next month. These men of the air, as a class. are the most confident beings of the human race.
 During the flights in Memphis this city expects to be host to over 2O0. .0O0 visitors. Most of these naturally will come from the Southern and Central states, but many thousands are ex- pected from different parts of this continent.

BANK OF FORREST CITY WINS
Rival Bank Sued on the Ground That the Others Bid Was Not Valid.
 Lost In all of the Courts.

Little Rock, March 2l.-In the case of the Bank of Eastern Arkansas against the Bank of Forrest City, in- volsing the power of counties under the new depository law, the supreme court today decided in favor of the former
 The law requires the county funds 10 be placed with some approved de- pository, the depository to be selected through competitive bids on the rate of interest to be paid to the county. There is also a provision tosthe effect that the county has the right to re- iect any or all bids and place the de- posits with some bank through mu- tual agreement.
 Bids were submitted by the Bank of Forrest City and the Bank of Eastern Arkansas, for the deposits of the county, the Bank of Eastern Arkan- sas making an offer of specific rate 1t was willing to pay. The other bank did not name specific rate, but pro- posed to pay ve-sixteenths of one per cent more than the rate offered by eany competing bank.
 On this offer the deposits were pac- ed with the Bank of Forrest City as the bank offering the largest rate. Action was instituted by the Bank of Eastern Arkansas to prevent the de- poslts going 10 it's rival on the ground that It had not made valid offer, no specific rate of interest being named. The suit was lost by it in the lower court, and appealed to the supreme court The court holds that appellee by It's bid sought to obtain an unfair aaYahtage over other bidders, and that Us bid was therefore invalid. The court further holds however, that appellant fails to show itself entitled 10 contest the action of the county court, Tor the reason that the act under which the bids were made gives to the county court the right to reject any and all bids and to award the con- tract to any bank or banks in the county Appellant therefore had no fisht Which it could enforce, notwith- standing It's bid was the only valid one submitted. Affirmed.

Cemetery Association.

People desiring to enlarge their lots Tn the cemetery should confer with some member of the Association be- lore putting in coping or other en- closure. Much trouble and confusion is arising from the disposition that some people show to appropriate ground over there without permission from the proper authorities, and with. out any regard for the rights of others. Such parties are putting themselves in the attitude of tres paSsers and are liable to prosecution. The Cemetery Association has legal possession of the grounds and while the members are willing to adjust ali conflicting claims as fairly as possible, they insist on their right 10 control the disposal of the grounds. MT. A.. L. Stevens. or any officer of the Asso- citation. will gladly advise and assist any person desiring to secure a new lot or enlarge an old one. The mem- bers of the Association are using every effort to put the cemetery into good order. What they have already accomplished is easily seen Much more is to be done and will be done as rapidly as possible, and the Asso- citation earnestly solicits the interest and support ot every good citizen. The work is being done in the inter- est of the whole community, and for the credit of the town. The place has been disgrace to Forrest City for a great many years. Now that an effort Is being made to improve conditions, those making it should be helped and not hampered in their work
 The Association holds regular monthly meetings on each fourth Wednesday at 2:30 pm. at the resi- dence of Mrs. Louis Rolwage. Any one who cares to do so is cordially in- vited to attend these meetings and become member of the Association.

How a North Dakota Man Was "Touch

a stern government inspector who
met him last night in the Union depot
has $50 more on the credit side of
his ledger than he had yesterday, as a
result of their little tete tete.
L.idden had just arrived from Bel
field. He was filled with confusion
after getting off the train and was
undecided just what to do first. He
stood around the station trying to col
lect his thoughts and to decide what
point of interest should first claim his
attention in Minneapolis. He had never
been in the city before and it was
hard to decide. He was debating deep

large awe-inspiring badge.
Anxious to comply with the spirit
as well as the letter of the laws of
his country, Lidden hastily drew out
$50 in bills and handed the roll to
the stranger.
