MONEY TO PAY PENSIONS HAS
 GIVEN OUT, SAYS AUDITOR

Montgomery, June 15.-(Speeial.)- )-Money to pay pensions for old soldiers has given out, according to C. Brooks Smith, state auditor. He made report to Governor O'Neal today, in which he said: You will note from the statement that during the year 1911-12 we paid the pen sioners on an average of about ssl2. TAO per quarter. and in l9lo-u We paid them about s251,s17 per quarter. This is why the fund is exhausted" The state auditor thinks that the act eliminating all fourth class pensioners, advancing those in that class to the third class, and which raised the property limit from $400 to 5000 is responsible. in the main. for the absence of funds. There is now but s9f54 with which to pay sev- eral thousand pensioners for the quarter beginning July 1.

Tex June 15-Mexican insur- iectos would not hesitate to fire into American territory from Juarez if any troops recruited by the Mexican federal government on American territory at temptcl to cross the Rio Grande here. Col Pascual Orozco. Sr., father of the rebel commander and head of the Juarez garrison here, in this way replied today to the demand of Col. F. 2. steever. com mander of the department of Texas. that no rife shots or bombs or shells must cross into the United States from Juarez at any time.
 Colonel orozco stated that while he would direct his men to avoid as far as possible firing into El Paso in case of fighting yet if any men recruited, as he alleges, in Fl Paso by D. c. Lorente. the Mexican consul here composed the attack ing force he would feel justified in giving his men no instructions.
 The Mexican government officials deny that any force has been enlisted by them on American soil.

Most elderly people are more or less troubled with a chronic, per sistent constipation, due largely to lack of sufficient exercise. They ex- perience difficulty in digesting even light food, with a consequent belching of stomach gases, drowsiness after eating, headache and a feeling of lassi- tude and general discomfort.
 Doctors advise against cathartics and violent purgatives of every kind, rec ommending a mild. gentle laxative tonic. like Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, to effect relief without disturbing the entire system.
 Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin Is the perfect laxative, easy in action, cer- tain in effect and, withal, pleasant to the taste. It possesses tonic proper ties that strengthen the stomach, liver and bowels and is remedy that has been for years the great standby in thousands of families, and should be in every family medicine chest. It is equally as valuable for children as for older people.
 Druggists everywhere sell Dr. Cald- ,Tell's Syrup Pepsin in soc and s1.00 Sottles. If you have never tried it tend your name and address to Dr. w. M. Caldwell, POI Washington St., Mon- cello, H., and he will be very glad to .4nd a sample bottle for trial.

 Little Rock.-Gov. Donaghey grant ed a pardon to Mrs. Stella Schneider, who was convicted in the Pulaski Cir cult court about year ago on a charge of murdering her husband by placing poison in glass of beer. This case attracted wide attention for some time following the killing. Mrs. Schneider was arrested in Chicago and brought back to Little Rock for trial. It was alleged that Mrs. Schmei- der pretended to enter into a suicide pact with her husband who was con- siderably older than herself, by agree ing that both should drink beer in which poison had been placed. It was alleged that the woman placed the poison in her husbands beer, but did not place it in the beer which she sentenced to six years in the peniten- tiary.
 Governor Donaghey also granted a pardon to Mrs. Leila Ford, woh was convicted in Boone county on charge of murder in the second degree and sentenced to 12 years in the peniten- tiary. Mrs. Ford was alleged to have interfered is a fight between her hus- band and another man and to have killed her husbands antagonist
 Governor Donaghey stated that he pardoned the two women because of the fact that they were the only white women in the penitentiary and that there was no place in the penitentiary where they could be cared for proper ly. Mrs. Donaghey has taken great interest in the two women and had visited them number of times. As result of her investigations she strongly urged the governor to give the women their freedom.
 The governor granted IS other par dons. He passed upon GO applications. Twenty-nine were denied and II were passed for further investigation.

They looked like newly married folks, says Mack's National Monthly, but were not on their honeymoon, as Mann learned by deduction. The woman laid down a newspaper she had been reading and said to her hus- band:
 Do you know, I wish 1 had one of these affinities. Oh, I think it would be just grand to sit on rock with somebody and have him rave about the incomparable golden color of my hair and tell me that my eyes were the most beautiful in the whole world, and"
 "Uh, huh" said the husband, yawn- ing.
 And that the delicate pink of my cheeks had been painted there by the angels, and that he couldn't live with out me. Ooh, I think an affinity like that would be-"
