This leaves but little for another day and Treas urer Crockett is figuring upon being forced to turn back those who pre- sent warrants not later than Thurs day morning. This will be the scrip basis which has been prophesied for many years, but which has never be- fore been reached. The holders of warrants will then be forced to cash them at discount or hold them un- til the collectors of the state have made partial settlements with the state.

Heartburn, Gas and Indigestion Van-

AS there is often some one in your family who suffers an attack of Indi- gestion or some form of Stomach trouble, why don't you keep some Dia pepsin in the house handy?
 This harmless blessing will digest anything you can eat without the slightest discomfort, and overcome a sour, gassy Stomach five minutes after.
 Tell your pharmacist to let you read the formula plainly printed on these 50-cent cases of Pape's Diapep- sin, then you will readily. see why it makes Indigestion, Sour Stomach Heartburn and other distress go in five minutes, and relieves at once such miseries as Belching of Gas, Eructations of sour, undigested food Nausea, Headaches, Dizziness, Consti- patton and other stomach disorders. Tind relief from Indigestion and Dyspepsia or an Out-Of-order stomach with the common everyday cures advertised that they have about made up their minds that they have some thing else wrong, or believe theirs is case of Nervousness, Gastritis Catarrh of the Stomach or Cancer.
 This, no doubt, is a serious mistake Your real trouble is. what you eat does not digest; instead, it ferments and sours, turns to acid, Gas and Stomach poison, which putrefy in the digestive tract and intestines, and besides, poison the breath with naus- eous odors.
 A hearty appetite. with thorough digestion and without the slightest discomfort or misery of the Stomach is waiting for you as soon as you decide to try Pape's Diapepsin.

MAY IRWIN AT
 THE ELKS TONIGHT
Clever Actress to Present Her New Play. "Getting a Polish,'' Before
 Pine Bluff Audience.

This evening is the date set for the appearance at the Elks theater of May Irwin in "Getting a Polish,' new play by Booth Tarkington and Harry Leon Wilson, the authors of ''The Man From Home.' The dimensions of the advance sale of seats shows theater-goers ready to put their trust in the personality of the star, the reputation of the authors, the good name of the management, and the favor with which the attraction has been received in those cities in which it has been seen.
 May Irwin is a host in herself and she has, this year, an unusually clev- CT supporting company. Her play will show her in the role of a Vest ern clearinghouse keeper, who sud- denly comes into an enormous for tune. Quite naturally the pendulum swings far the other way. The flood gates of a naturally bouyant and impulsive nature are thrown open, and the boarding house keeper comes East to cut splurge, conquer "swell' society and make a "dern fool of herself" The common horse sense she was born with finally as- serts itself and makes her realize the latter fact in the end, but not until she has led the other characters through a series of mirth-provoking situations that should form the nucleus of a jolly evenings enter tainment.
 Supporting Miss Irwin in Getting Polish'' are many clever players of whose past careers something has been already said in these columns. The production is the first Miss Irwin has appeared in under her new man. agers, Messrs. Liebler & Company. As a star under the direction of that firm, the jovial May has had the advantages of having had her new play staged by Hugh Ford. one of the few really great stage directors of the present time, who devotes himself to the Liebler & Company attractions exclusively.

A Jefferson Representative Threatened to Talk Until
 Midnight.
THE PASSES CAUSED IT
Lobbyists May Have To Register With Secretary of State If CarlLee
 Bill Goes Through.

Little Rock, March 14.-His oppo- nents called it filibustering, the first notable filibuster of the session, but Representative Kerwin insisted tha. he was discussing important matters germane to the issue when he held the floor from 2:30 til 4:30 Monday on the question of allowing passes to the members of the Arkansas Rail- road Commission. The fight arose over motion by MT. Hurst, in the consideration of the general appro- priations bill, providing Kerwin took the floor with the announced purpose of talking the day out, that no vote might be reached on it Monday. At one time the House voted to adjourn at 7 D. m., and the gentleman from Jefferson announced nonchalantly. as he leaned his arm on pile of books, took another drink of water, and picked up another volume of the Acts, that he could talk till midnight And he continued to read law books. with running comments, holding the floor off by another motion to adjourn The bill is expected to come up again Wednesday morning, when MT. Kerwin will still have the floor He Insists that the Commissioners should be permitted to accept passes and that it is better for the state to do this than to pay out S20,000 of the peoples money for travelling expenses.

NO FISH FOR STREAMS.
State Game Warden Lincoln Unable
to Procure Seined Fish to
Distribute.

State Fish and Game Warden Geo.
A. Lincoln is out of one job this fall.
He will not distribute any fish to
the inland streams and rivers of the
state. The reason he explains is that
there are no fish available at the
usual seining spots along the Missis-
sippi. The lakes and bayous where
the operations of gathering the sup
ply of fish each fall were carried on,
have disappeared, because OF the ex-
tremely low stage of the big river.
Mr.. Lincoln spent a busy time in
specting along the Mississippi last
week. He was at Sabula where
there are extensive bayous and lakes,
where the majority of the fish had
been secured in the past. The river
was never lower in Mr.. Lincoln's
memory and this is the first time
since he had been fish warden that
he was unable to distribute at least
a few fish in the fall. One year he
did not distribute any because of
high water.

from civilization as possible, for rest
and recreation.
Just after we located our rooms
for the night, We came out in front
of the inn, and party came in from
the afternoons fishing trip, with all
the fish they could carry. There was
"a trout weighing twenty-seven
pounds, another weighing seventeen
pounds, and many fine black bass,
pike and pickerel. This whetted our
appetiteS the more, and so we quick
ly arranged our trip for the morrow.
We engaged a French Canadian, 10
Parron by name, to take us out in
his launch, and Batiste, a native AL
gonquin Indian, to go along as guide
and to paddle the canoe or row the
skiff as desired. After all arrange
ments were made we retired and
slept like babies in the cool, clear,
refreshing breeze which came across
'AAO iSihC' III llAC llAOl mn VIC IL II
about seven o'clock, and after a two
hours ride about the enhancing
lake, we tied up the launch in Shin
ingwood Bay, and Batiste soon had a
skiff ready for us to commence fish
ing. We let out about 100 feet of
line and as we rounded the point of
an island, and had made a wager
as to who should catch the first fish,
both Gilmore and the writer had ter
rife strikes at the same moment, and
then the fun began. We each had
hooked fine bass, and as we reeled
the fish, breaking water three times
of course, gave us as fine sport as
the most ardent disciple of Isaac
Walton could wish for. AS so it was
throughout the day. We had pro-
cured fishing licenses at Temagami,
which permitted us to catch eight
bass each in one day, and numerous
other fish. We had splendid luck
in the morning, getting a number of
bass, pike and pickerel, and at noon
Parron gave us as fine a fish-steak
dinner as anyone could desire. In
the afternoon we changed from troll
ing to fishing for bass with worms,
which would be considered "unpro-
fessional' in this country. But we
had purchased some worms at twen-
ty-five cents per dozen, big ones, as
large as lead pencil, which had
been shipped from Toronto, and
wanted to try them. Sitting on the
stern of the launch we let down thir-
ty feet of line, and it was great
sport to see two big bass come up
and tackle both our hooks at about
the same time. We had as fine sport
as two men ever had, caught as many
fish as the law would permit, and
got back TO the inn in time to take

COBALT SILVER MINES
Newspaper Men of America Visit the
Worlds Greatest Silver
District.
A DAY ON TEMAGAM LAKE
Editor Enjoys Fishing Excursion
With French Canadian Cook
and Indian Guide.

Leaving Ottawa our special train
carried the editorial party far to the
northwest in an all nights run to
Cobalt, the famous silver mining dis
trict which during the past six years
has attracted the attention of the
entire world in its wonderful and
rapid development and its enormous
production. Cobalt is $50 miles
straight north of Lake Ontario,
northeast of Georgian Bay, and only
$50 miles south of Hudson Bay. AL
though it was in July, the hottest
month of the year, the writer was
mighty glad he had money enough
to buy a suit of thick wool miners
underwear to replace the thin sum-
mer outfit worn at Ottawa. 1t was
cold enough for a heavy overcoat,
and many Of the party were FORUM
ate enough to have brought one

virgin forest, which had been devas-
tated by forest fires. Lakes, rocks,
scraggly pines, charred stumps greet
ed us on all sides as we sped along
through this unsettled country. We
were running through the territory
of recent forest fires, which a little
to the northwest had just recently
wiped out entire villages and burned
to death over a hundred persons.
The tales told by survivors of these
fires is appalling. There were many
stories of the bravery and the endur-
ance of the miners and the people
who lived in the villages. A Catholic
priest told us that the entire village
in which he lived was wiped out in
short time. Several lives were lost,
but he managed to save the most of
his flock by getting them into a lake,
about all sides of which was a surg
ing mass of flames. The women and

Temagami Lake is

ever experienced. Temagami Lake is
about thirty-five miles long, with a
shore line of over 1000 miles, and
with hundreds of arms and smaller
lakes stretching out from it in every
direction, like great octopus, pene-
trating the virgin forest. The entire
country about is a forest reserve,
preserved in its virgin state, and
abounds with fish and game or all
kinds. 1t is said that there are num-
erous lakes in which no one has ever
fished, and through the dense forests
there is scarcely even a trail, hunt
ing and fishing parties occasionally
making portages from one lake or
arm OF the large lake to another,
across the hills, accompanied by In
dian or French Canadian guides.
This is said to be the best fishing
grounds on earth, and We have no
reason to doubt the claim. We have
had some little experience in the
mountains and streams OF various
parts of the continent, anu have
travelled somewhat in numerous
directions in search of just these
things, but for real virgin beauty of
forest, stream and lake, for the "call
of the wild" we have never seen

great expanse of waters, dotted with
over three thousand wooded islands,
beautiful beyond the power OF de-
scription, the clear, pure air redolant

sparkling water of the lake, into
whose depths lou can easily see to

seated in one end small canoe,
with native Indian in the other,
deity welding the paddle which
makes the canoe fairly skim over the

this is not indeed the paradise of
nature, the real happy hunting
ground"
Gliding in and out about the
many islands, the little steamer car
ried us through this delightful pan
Drama of natures fairyland, and to
Temagami Inn, situated on a point
of land extending out into the water.
1t is a cottage hotel, of log cabin
style, a big, cheerful room with a
huge fireplace, the floor covered with
skins of bear and other denisons of
the nearby forests, off from which
extend corridors to sleeping rooms,
etc. Here is an ideal spot for one to
get back to nature" and we found
parties here from Chicago, Des
Moines and other American cities,

of silver to the ton of ore; 10000
600 ounces of silver were produced
from this district last year, the en-
tire production since the discovery of
silver here being over 100000, 1000
ounces, or over one hundred million
dollars in money.
During the day the party were
taken for a drive through the mining
district and a visit to some of the
principal mines. The trip down the
shafts into the mines was a novel
and interesting experience for many
of the editors. At the mills we were
shown how they crush, wash and
separate the ore, shown veins of
silver in the earth, and the process
of mining from the beginning until
the product is ready for market.
Various mines in this section extend
under and even into lakes, the lake
upon whose shores the city is situat-
ed being directly over a mine, the
lake property being recently sold for
million and half dollars.
With a few friends we boarded the
trolley car at Cobalt and rode
through the mining district to Hal
leybury, more modern city some ff-
teen miles distant, where the mine
owners and higher class of operators
make their homes. 1t is fine little
city, situated on the shores OF the
beautiful Temiskaming lake, a mag
nificent body of water eighty-five
miles long. Here we took dinner at
a modern hotel, and then returned,
passing numerous mines and mining
camps on the way.
The association expected to spend
the next day upon the beautiful
waters of Temagami Lake, and hav-
ing seen about all that we wanted to
see of Cobalt and vicinity, friend,
Mr.. w. T. Gilmore of Upton, Iowa,
who enjoys fishing as much as we
do, and the writer took the regular
afternoon train to Tamagami, leav-
ing our party at Cobalt, where they
were to remain that night and run
to Temagami in the morning. 1t
was only a run of an hour or two,
and we planned to spend the after
noon and evening on the lake, and
get everything in readiness to spend
the next day fishing while the party
was touring the lake on the steamer
When we reached Temagami We
found steamer awaiting the arrival
of the train, and we embarked i'm
mediately, taking passage for Tenn
agami Inn, sixteen miles down the
lake, where we had planned to re-
main for the night and go out from
there in the morning on our fishing
trip. The trip down the lake was
one of the most delightful we have

girls took blankets or shawls and
wrapped about them, standing in the
water up to their shoulders and
necks, and every moment or two dip
ping down under the water, wetting
themselves all over so that they
could Withstand the awful heat and
keep themselves from being scorched.
He told us that they stayed in the
water for thirty-six hours, fighting
for life, and watching everything
they possessed wiped out by the de-
vouring flames.
Soon we ran out of the burned
over section, and into the dense for
est, scene of rare beauty and gran
deur, the entire country dotted with
beautiful lakes of crystal water, to
the edge of which grew the tall dark
rich, green pines and the vegetation
peculiar to this northern cline.
1t was not long until we began to
notice that the hillsides were dotted
here and there with prospect holes,
with deserted mining shacks and
piles of earth thrown out from min
ing shafts, and then we could see
every now and then a mine in full
operation, some very large plants,
and some small ones, and as we
skirted beautiful lake we felt the
train slowing down and looking up
the hillside to our left we saw the
mining town of Cobalt, very similar
in almost every way to Cripple Creek,
Colorado.
Cobalt is a typical mining town of
about 5000 people, six years old.
Silver was accidentally discovered
here in 1904, while prospectors were
looking for cobalt, a valuable blue
mineral used in the manufacture of
paints. Large deposits of cobalt
were found, and while mining it the
miners discovered rich veins of sill
yer, and it was not long until the
rush to Cobalt was greater than the
rush to California in 1S49, to Color
ado and to Alaska in later years.
People came in by the hundreds from
every direction. At the railroad sta
ton it became necessary to station
police to handle the crowds, and in
a remarkably short time they had
thrown up city of 5000 people
here, huts and shacks of every kind
stuck up on the hillside to furnish
a place to cover their heads at night.
Cobalt is the richest silver mining
camp in the world, and now the val
liable mineral cobalt is merely a by
product. Sixteen large mining COM
panies are in operation, some of
them operating several mines. Dur
ing last year this district produced
over one-fifth of the silver supply of
the world. 1t averages $4,000 ounces
