Death of Mrs. J. A. WhittentOn.

On last Saturday morning, July 2, shortly after o'clock, the soul of Mrs. J. A. Whittenton, of the Yocona neighborhood, passed to it's maker, after painful illness of nine days Mrs. Whittenton was in her forty fourth year, having been born in June, 1868. She came to Arkansas when child with her parents, MT. and Mrs. John Cox, and resided in this county continuously until her death She was married in Noyem- Der, 1888, to Mr. J. A. Wbittenton, and to this union eleven children were born, one of whom Mr. Willard WhittentOn, with her husband, sur wives her.
 Mrs. Mhittenton joined the Bap- tist church when she was seventeen years of age, and was a conscientious, consistent Christian woman, who was loved by all who knew her, and who was known far and wide for her free handed open charity, and especially, for the liberality shown by her in contributing to the various orphans homes to which she was asked to con- tribute. She was kind and loving wife and mother, true and loyal friend, and woman whose place in the lives and memories of those who knew her, will be hard indeed, to fill.
 The remains were inferred in the Forrest City cemetery Saturday after noon at } o'clock, Elder James A. Smith, officiating and large con- course of friends and sympathizers of the family following the funeral cortege to the fast resting place of all that was mortal of her whom they loved and reverenced so we'll. In the sincere sympathy and heartfelt con- dolence that has been layished upon the bereaved family The Times wishes to add its share.

To The Public.

lnasmuch as good deal of misun- derstanding and uncertainty exists in the minds of many people of our State in regard to the condition of affairs at the University, the Faculty of the University wishes the people to know what the facts are
 l. The Board of Trustees, while taking time to select president with mature deliberation, has appointed Prof. J. H. Reynolds of the Depart ment of History acting president of the University with full authority to conduct the affairs of the institution. There Is every reason to believe that this arrangement will eonti n u e throughout the coming academic year.
 ?. The members Of the Faculty are unanimous in their endosement of the action of the Board and in their hearty support of President Reynolds and his administration They have implicit confidence in his ability to guide the affairs Of the University with wisdom and judgment. His administration will stand for the best academic traditions and for the high est standard of character.
 3. As an evidence of their faith in Prof Reynolds the Faculty is harmo- niously working with him to orgonize the various forces of the University V for better and large service to the students and to the State In this work they are invoking the expert ence of the best universities in the country. The people may rest in the assurance that the president and the Faculty will enforce proper discipline will maintain high standard of scholarship, and will train the young men and women of Arkansas to be obedient to authority and to become useful citizens of the State.
 4. Instead of being discouraged the Faculty is hopeful and confident that the University has before it career of great usefulness and development. To the realization of their highest ideals of state university worthy of the people of this great State serving their every need the Faculty is conse- crating their best efforts. They there- fore ask the people Of this State to give the present admiuist ration the confidence and support that il de-

In Honor Of The Late V. F. Williams.

At a mass meeting of colored citi- zenS of St. Francis county, the fol- lowing resolutions were passed out of respect to the memory of Hon. ". F. Williams who departed this life July Huh, 1912.
 Whereas, It has pleased the Heaven ly Father to remove from the land of the living the soul of our late friend and fellow citizen, Hon. W. F.. Will Hams, Ex-Sheritf and Collector of St. Francis county. and one of the bright est political lights of Eastern Arkan- sas, whose honesty and integrity as a citizen were above reproach and whose entire career as an officer was unsullied and whose many virtues as a husband, father, friend and fellow citizen were indeed most worthy of emulation: and,
 Whereas, We,the coored citizens of ot' Francis county feel very keenly the loss Of such worthy friend and counsellor as the Hon, w. F.. Williams proved himself to he to our race in tlls part of our state; and, since We are highly appreciatiye of the kind efforts of other worthy white citizens who like him, are doing what they can to ameliorate the racial conditions ot our common country; and
 Whereas, We feel that in cases of this kind We should brush aside GUS toms in vogue and take such steps as will inform his family, relatives and friends that in their great bereave- ment they have our most sincere and heartfelt sympathy, and that we too loved honored and cherished him for his manly virtues, his generosity to our churches and schools, and his friendship for our people in general:
 Resolved, That while we very much the death of our hoH5=5d friend and fellow citizen and keenly feel the loss We have sustained in be- ing deprived of his excellent counsel and most wholesome advice, yet we reyerently bow in humble submission to Heavens $ will and feel that while In his death earth has lost noble man. Heaven has gained an immortal.
 Resolved further. That we hereby extend our most tender sympathy to his devoted wife and loving children in this sad hour of their bereavement and We trust that they may feel that although they are bereft of his per sonal presence, yet his influence as loving husband and indulgent father is still with them and will raise up friends for them throughout the length and breadth of our great com- monwealth. We humbly commend them to the care and keeping of Him who needs the sparrow fall and will bind up the broken heart.
 Resolved further, That as friends who honored him we shall ever revere his memory and eXtol his many yir- tues: that we shall strive to so live that when our summons comes to take up our chambers in the silent hall of death that like him, we too shall lie down to pleasant dreams.
 Resolved further, That a copy of these resolutions be furnished the family of our deceased friend and that they be published in the county papers.
 Respectfully,
 Signed L N Nelson, Chairman; w. L. Purifoy, Secretary; Dr. D. ]. Williams, Rev. P. c. Fannin, w. K. Grimes, Jno +. Hodges, J. H. Gull Ter, L. J. Walker ] S Buntin, E. P. Powell. Rev. J R. Burdette, Rev. B.

Raft to Carry Wireless Antennae In
vented by Two War Veterans.
John S. and Daniel W. Shea, veter-
ans of the Spanish war, have invent
ed method of signaling from subma-
rine boats which, they say. will put an
end to submarine disasters. An at
tempt was made by the German gov
eminent to get the exclusive rights to
the inventions. but the Sheas say they
refused it. In describing it Daniel
said: ..- ...
''The arrangement will enable the
crew to communicate with vessels or
land stations from the bed of the
ocean.
''The invention proposes the mount
ing of mast on a buoyant support or
raft carried by the submarine boat
The mast IS equipped with a yardarm
to carry wireless antennae and also
for the use of flags when the ship is
on the surface. When the boat is sub
merged the raft may be released from
within the boat to float on the surface.

Baltimore Girl More Interested In
Archaeology Than In FrivoIity.
Miss Lucy Buckler, debutante daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. William II. Buck
Ter Of Baltimore is planning to give up
social life ard accompany her parents
on their expedition to. Asia Minor,
where Mr.. Buckler will take part in
the archaeological studies to be car
ried on at Sardis.
1t is not the custom of archaeologists
to have young women as companions
on such trips. but Miss Buckler is so
interested in the subject that she will
spend considerable time there if her
health permits The young woman
accompanied her father last year on a
similar expedition.
Mr.. Buckler and DR.. David Robin
son, his companion in the researches,
are both affiliated with John Hopkins
university. There will be several other
scientists in the party. Miss Buckler
expects to enter the archaeological de-
partment of Oxford university.

ADVERTISING OUR SCENERY.

Government Will Send Official Abroad
to Tell Europeans Of America.
The "See America First propagan-
da, preached SO extensively throughout
the country, at last has reached the
federal government. Plans are in con-
temptation for sending abroad a gov
eminent official to give illustrated lee
lures in the important cities of Europe
on the beauties of America.
It is believed by government authori-
ties that considerable part of the
$5OO,000,OO0 spent abroad annually by
Americans can be diverted into the
pockets of American railroad stock
holders. hotel keepers and guides. The
scheme is not being considered alto

purpose being to prove that this coun-
try has mountain. lake and moor seen

Great Railroad Builder Raps the Poll

Great Railroad Builder Raps the Poll
ticians.
A merger of the immigration of severn
northwestern states for the develop
ment Of these commonwealth is ad.
vocated by James J. Hill, chairman of
the board Of directors of the Great
Northern railway.
Mr.. Hills plan has reference to the
states in the recently organized North
western Development league. They
are Minnesota, North Dakota, South
Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Washington,
Oregon and the territory of Alaska.
"Men must work out their own in
dustrial SALVATION" declares Mr.. Hill,
Einstead of trusting to politicians to
do it for them
He calls the territory involved "the
zone of plenty" and in the course Of
his statement makes the following
characteristic remarks: -@-
"The conduct of business in the long
run is not a mere scramble for the
best place at the trough.
"Whenever this country has faltered
or stood still it has been through re-
lance upon politicians.
"When they tell you that prosperity
may be created and maintained by
tariffs and other articles laugh at
them. .--...:,
eve need honesty enough to live
within our means
'We need to understand that the flu
ture of men and commonwealth is
created out of character and intelligent
effort and not by anything which any
political agency can accomplish"
