summer rate to this resort would bring many thousands of visitors to the city during the summer and in a measure make Hot Springs year
 round resort.
 An example is found in the fact that during one day of the reunion a party of forty persons from Oklahoma came to this city for the purpose of taking the baths and medical treatment, while smaller parties from other sections were included in the vast number Of visitors.
 From an advertising standpoint the present week has been one of the greatest in the history of the resort Not has only Secretary Bedding and his assistants distributed hundreds of thousands of pieces of advertising to the reunion crowds at Little Rock, but Hot Springs has had an oppor- tunity to show the visitors that i've do as We advertise.
 Hotels, rooming houses and restau- rants were asked to maintain their scale of ices during the rush of wis. ltors from Little Rock. Not only did they maintain their regular low sum- mer rates but quite a number of the old veteran visitors who had expected free accommodations at Little Rock found their hosts at Hot Springs most liberal in making the rate meet the condition of their purses.
 Every possible attention was shown the visitors, in showing them about the city, pointing out places of inter- est and furnishing them with all de sired information
 There was a dominant spirit Of Glad U Kun" in the very atmos- phere. and Hot Springs made good in the comparison of accommoda- tions and rates as compared with those of Little Rock.
 The visit of thousands to this city during the warm weather period is bound to result in great good for the summer season. The weather here has been ideal the hotel and bath open to all at mod. crate charges, and the scenic beauty and cosmopolitan appearance of the city created an impression of Hot Springs as a city and health resort which was favorable in the extreme.

 Near the Arkansas River.

 He was in Little Rock attending the reunion and on Tuesday was over come by heat and treated at one of the First Air stations.
 He apparently recovered and was allowed to go.
 Tt is believed that his mind was af : fected by the heat and that he wand cred into the river.
 The body of J. M Bailey, of Denton, Texas a Confederate veteran in L.t- tie Rock to attend the Confederate reunion. was found lying in the river hank beneath the Rock Island bridge this morning. As nothing had appar- ently been removed from the dead mans pockets it is surmised that he lost his way and fell from the bridge.

Adlutant Generals Report

Little Rock, May 17--Twenty-f new camps have been added to the United Confederate Veterans since the last reunion, according to the an nual report of Adiutant- General Wm. E, Mickle. made public at the reunion here today. Georgia leads with eight and Texas is second with five.
 The total number of camps now on the roster is 1,1S3. decrease of F since the last report due to the drop ping of camps through the non pay ment of dues. while there are a mum Der of camps which have died from simple lack os material to keep them alive. others in a dormant state have been revived and there is to be noted only slight decrease in the total now on the roster" says General Mickle.
 ''In no year in the past have We been called on to part with more dis Itinguished associates than in the year just closed. As officers in the Con federate army. able writers, forcible speakers. leaders in commercial cir cles. no organization can make such a showing of leading men.

Hot Springs has been having a lit tie reunion all her own during the past three days mot so small, either, as a conservative estimate of the number of visitors from Little Rock during the Confederate reunion pac es the number at between 1000 and 10000, with thousands more due to arrive today and tomorrow.
 With the congested condition at the capital and the inability of thousands to obtain accommodations, either from lack of room or exorbitant rates the attention of the visitors naturally turned to Hot Springs with her many magnificent hotels, her hundreds of rooming houses, reason able rates and open arm welcome, which Secretary Bedding and his as sistants had guaranteen them
 All day yesterday and last night and today a regular procession of specia trains poured into this city from Lit tie Rock. all loaded to their carrying capacity with visitors who could not get accommodations at the capital city, or who took advantage of the re union rates to make a visit to the worlds greatest health resort.
 Surprised, at first, by the large host of visitors who poured into the city beginning with the first day, and w.- out previous notice of the number to expect. members and officers of the Business Mems League, citizens, po- licemen and city officials turned out to meet the trains and see that the veterans were provided with adequate accommodations at the most reason abe prices.
 The Sentinel Record yesterday morning published an appeal to hotels and rooming houses to notify the Business Mems League the number of visitors they couId accommodate, and to the business men to form monster reception committee for the purpose of meeting the visitors, wei coming them to the city, and aiding them in securing accommodation and any information desired.
 The response to this request was immediate. The league was Hooded during the day with rooming house information, and a reception commit tee numbering nearly 100 was organ ized for the work.
 The splendid accommodations the hearty greeting and the allaround cordial and fair treatment aeeordea the visitors made hit with each and everyone of them. and they at once voted Hot Springs the most cosmo politan city of the Southwest.
 Many of the visitors came for the purpose of securing meals and quar- ters for .the night. returning to Little Rock the following day, while many hundreds visited the office of the superintendent of the reservation and secured permits for course of baths covering stay of three weeks or a month.
 The reservation office force report , that it put in the busiest three days Of the year during this week, and the stream of applicants continues,
 The low rate granted hy the rail roads on this occasion has served to convince the business men of Hot springs that an equally attractive

THE DEATH OF
DIR. KNAPP.
Venerable Al ricuIturlst passed away
Saturday.

Thousands of Mississippians will
learn with deep regret Of the death Of
DR.. s. A. Knapp, general agent Of the
United States department of agrieul-
ture, bureau Of plant industry, who for
the past several years was in charge
Of the cooperative and demonstration
farm wark in the Southern States.
Governor Noel received a telegram
early Sunday morning announcing DR..
Knapp's death. The venerable agricul-
turist was a close personal friend Of
Mississippi's executive, and they had
held frequent conferences during the
past three years relative to the work of
the department in this state.
DIR. Knapp, was rs years af age, but,
in spite Of his advanced years. had been
actively in harness up to a few days
prior to his death. Prior to accepting
a position with the department Of agri-
culture, he was widely know az "the ia.
Their of the rice industry" the Develop
ment Of that great industry in Texas
and Louisiana having been largely due
t . his efforts.

that they cannot save something. Some.
thing. Some people who have only
small incomes say: money helps when
you have it, but suppose you are poor
and your daily income is just about
enough for your daily needs, how are
you going to save any money!"
Of course, there are person whose
earning capacity is no greater than
their needs. There are many such in
the slums of the great cities, but we
are certain there are very few in this
prosperous community who can truth
fully say that they can't save anything
Therefore, il any resident of Green
wood or vicinity does not save money,
the chances are ten to one that it ia
because he does not want to and not be-
cause he cannot. For your sake as
for u own, we respectfully suggest
that you give serious consideration to
this subject of saving now. We offer
you 4 per cent. and absolute security
for your savings.
