Will NOT LACK
FOR CIRCUSES

Little Rock, Aug. 21.-Arkansas
cannot complain of lack of circuses
this fall. Besides the tented attrac-
tions of one ring calibre, Barnum &
Bailey, Ringing Brothers, Hagenbach
& Wallace, John Robinson, the 1O1
Ranch and several other large aggre-
cations of the worlds greatest, will
wander through the state, picking ur
thousands of hard-earned dollars
within the next two months. The state
is now alive with the posters of these
great attractions, and in addition to
them the Buffalo Bill outfit is flooding
the state with moving picture reels
showing that show in action. The
theater season likewise opened in Lit
tie Rock Monday, the vaudeville hous-
es being the first to open. The Kemp-
ner and Capital open later.

MUCH DAMAGE
BY HAIL STORM

ii. Z. Williams of Spring Hill, who
is IN Conway today, reported that
much damage was caused in his seq
ton by severe hail and wind storm
at 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon. The
path of the storm, Mr.. Williams
states, was about two miles wide
within which cotton and corn fields
were riddled and much timber blown
down. Some of the stalks of cotton.
he says, had every leaf and boil beaten
Off, leaving only the bare stalk. The
hail fell about Is minutes and some of
the stones were unusually large. No
person, so far as is known, was in
Jured, but on account of all telephone
lines being down, it is impossible to
learn the extent of the damage caused
by the storm.

SECRET SERVICE
MEN ARE BUSY

Little Rock, Aug. 21.-Several gov
ernment secret service men are said
to have been in Little Rock and other
portions of Arkansas during the past
ten days gathering a bit of informa-
tion for the federal grand jury which
convenes in the fall, relative to alleg-
ed violations of federal statutes on
combinations for restraint of trade
and other matters, which if indict-
ments result will create a profound
sensation. 1t is whispered about that
several of the large corporations
which deal in the common carrying of
communications are to be probed, as
well as some railroad connections. The
pension business for the next federal
grand jury is also expected to be
somewhat larger than usual on ac-
count of the work of large corps of
inspectors in Arkansas during the
past few weeks.

WILL ORGANIZE
MILITIA C0MPANY
CONWAY BOYS TO join
FIRST MEETING WILL BE HELD
HERE MONDAY NIGHT,
AUGUST 2S.

Plans which have been in process of
formation for several weeks to organ
izing state militia company in this
city were practically consummated to-
day, and meeting of those interested
was called to be held in this city next
Monday night, August 20. About rs
Conway boys and young men have al
ready signed an agreement to join the
company when formed, and it is prob
able that 0. d. Longstreth, formerly
of the State Normal School, will be
chosen as captain of the company.
A letter received today from the
state militia department states that
General B. w. Green, Major E. l..
Compere and former Adjutant Cen
eral Bruce 7. Bullion will probably
come to Conway next Monday to aid
in the organization of the company.
No expense is attached to joining
the militia, and as there are a number
of beneficial features attached to
membership, it is expected the COM
pany will be recruited to its full
strength within a few weeks. The
state furnishes uniforms, arms and
other equipment, pays rental on an
armory and pays each member 20
cents for each drill in which he par
ticipates. Those who have signed the
petition for member lip are as fol-
lows:

SLOAN OPPOSES
ANOTHER FARM
PUT C0NyICTS ON ROAD
STATE HAS PLENTY OF GOOD
LAND NOW, COMMISSIONER
THINKS.

Little Rock, Aug. 21.-Should half
the counties of Arkansas get good
roads movement on them and demand
the convicts they have in the state
penltentiary for road work, the state
would have to go out and hire free
labor to successfully cultivate the
state farm at Cummins. This is the
statement of Clay Sloan, commission
er of agriculture, who has Just re-
turned from visit to the large state
plantation. Commissioner Sloan will
cite the penitentiary board to this
fact when the time comes for the con-
sideration of the resolution providing
for the purchase of another state
farm upon which to work the white
convicts and take them off the rail
roads. "The road and the convict
problems should one solve the other"
stated Commissioner Sloan when dis
cussing the proposition recently.
Take the convicts off the railroads
and the farm, where they are now
practically self-sustaining, and a tax
must be levied to care for them. The
road tax could all be given over to
their support, and allow them to work
the roads in all the counties, and there
be no change, but that is of course a
theory which will have to be tried be-
fore it can be definitely determined.
"We have now at the state farm
sufficient land to work all the state
convicts when it is drained properly
and opened for cultivation. The clear
ing and the draining must go on at
the same time in order to have the
work economically done. Drain and
then clear in the after years and you
lose the seasons work spent in drain
ing. At the present rate the counties
are taking their convicts to work their
roads, we will not have enough men
left in a short while to work the farm
as it is today, so | cannot see the use
of another farm. | have been all over
the state farm and see it is subject to
drainage. Accomplish this and there
is no reason why it should not be as
healthy as any upland farm.
Il was born on farm situated just
as is the state farm, right on the river
bank, and l lived 80 years on such a
farm. | was sick but one time in my
life, and if my family has as good
health on river farm, see no rea-
son why we cannot keep the state con-
victs in good health on such a farm"

CONSTABLE RACE

WINNER.

By a margin of only eight votes O.
l.. Honea won the nomination for con-
stable of Cadron township over E. L.
King and John Long, at the special
Democratic primary election held here
Saturday, and will, it is thought, be
elected at the special election Septem-
ber 8 without opposition. Mr.. Honea
received 1913 votes, Mr.. King 1S5 and
Mr.. Long 167, making the race one of
the closest ever held
Honea and King both were in the
race for the nomination in January,
1909, Honea at that time defeating
King by six votes, but was himself de-
feated in the general election in Sep
tember following, by w. H. James,
who ran as an independent. Mr.. James
resigned on August /, and County
Judge J. A. Lea called special eec-
ton for September 8 to fill the va
cancy.

ed the officers of the special primary

was entirely satisfied with the man
ner in which the election was conduct
cd. The total vote cast was 548, ind-
eating that considerable interest had
been aroused in the outcome of the
race.

the Los Angeles Press. But first OF all. powder
and rouge must be discarded because of their
rninous effect on the skin. In its place should
he used plain spurmax lotion. made by dissov-
ing 4 ounces spurmax in u pint hot water. and
adding teaspoonfuls gycerine. Using witch
hazel instead of water makes 1t dry quicker in
cold weather..
This lotion should be applied to face, neck
and arms. then gently massaged In. and when II

tinued using will remove pmples, blackheads,
