ECCENTRIC WOMAN
 DIES IN SOLITUDE

London, February 24.- (Special.--The closely drawn blinds of a large house In St. Georges Square, South Belgravia, hid for nearly week the mystery of the death of a wealthy woman who lived there alone.
 As no answer came to knocks at this silent house the police forced the door and found on the floor of her bed room the body of Mrs. Margaret Beet Swaine, who has been living apart for the last nine years from her second husband. a retired captain of a Yorkshire regiment
 Mrs. Swaine, middle aged woman of somewhat eccentric habits, was rela- tive of Prince, the actor who mur. dered William Terriss outside the stage door of the Adelphi theatre in Decem- her, S97 and who was sent to Broad moor.
 Some months ago Mrs. Swaine called in a doctor from the neighborhood and he attended her several times. Several weeks ago, when he called one day. he could get no answer to his repeated knockings. and he drew the attention of the police to the house, fearing his eccentric patient might be i'll.
 As a constable was forcing the door, however Mrs. Swaine appeared in the hall highly indignant ;st the intrusion as she called IL ana threatened an aC- ton for damages against the first man who crossed her threshold. The police withdrew and Mrs. Swaine slammed the door, retiring into her self sought seclusion. After that no more attempts were made to render her any assistance until few days ago.
 pr. Bramsdon of St. George Square, who had been attending her, called then, and as he could not get any an swer he informed the police. After a consultation 1t was decided to risk fore ing an entrance again.
 When they entered the house was si lent as the grave. and dust lay on the hangings and the furniture in the lower rooms The house was searched and in her bed room Mrs. Swalne was found dead At her feet crouched a small Irish terrier, thin and famshed as though it had been without food for days
 The doctor took charge of the faith full little dog, which seemed at first reluctant to leave the house, and tho body of Mrs. Swainc was taken to the Westminster mortuary where the cor oner held an inquest.

 To the astonishnient of the court Vers- bach's body immediately became rigid and his arms outstretched. The lawyers attempted to move his arms. believing he was shamming, but they failed. and then, at the suggestion of the doctor, they thrust needles into his face and other parts of his body. Nersbach. however gave no sign of reaction, and only re- covered consciousness when the doctor pronounced another formula. The case was then adjourned temporarily.
 When the trial was resumed the prison CT fell spontaneously into a hypnotic sleep, from which it took long time to wake him. The proceedings were there upon again adjourned, and Versbach will now be examined by medical experts, and an attempt will be made to discover the identity of the unknown hypnotist.

The Final Tire

After 13 years, we have brought pneumatic tires as close to perfection as we ever hope to get.
 Goodyear tires represent fnality in all that makes good tires.
 To that we have added a pat ented feature which makes rim cutting forever impossible.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-02-25

Statistics show that 23 per cent of all ruined clincher tires are rim-cut. o-Rim-Cut tires wipe out that loss entirely. ' Experience proves that 10 per cent oversize, under average conditions, adds 20 per cent to the tire mileage.
 You get both these savings in No Rim Cut tires. Yet they cost you nothing extra. These pat ented tires now cost the same as other standard tires.

TICKS MUST G0 SAY ARKANSAS R EXPIRES
Plan To Install Dipping yats in This State ito Eradicate the Cattle Tick.


 An enthusiastic meeting was held n the Court House at Har rrison, Ark, on Saturday., Feb. 14th to consider the question of taking up Texas fever
 ch cradle. ti:!n in Boone County th-S
 car.
 Henry '' Petit, i9 President Boone
 'ounty Cattle Growers Association I rcaidad over, the meeting The t..
 :. Department of Agriculture was re- resented by Dr. A. E. Wight, Of
 little Rock, who has charge of 1ac government work in Arkansas, Louis
 ana, and Missouri, and the State
 Department by ,Dr. R. NJ. Cow, Asst State Veterinarian, and asst. veter- marian of Arkansas Experiment Sta-
 ion.
 The plan outlined is to install some 5 or 20 dipping vats throughout the county and to use the standard ar ;enical dip. Each owner 's to drive ! lis cattle to the nearest vat at re- 5ular intervals throughout the sea- son and the officials state that if all
 ne cattle can be so handled he cou l. y can h2 cleaned up in one season and inside of 12, months could b2 placed above the Federal Quarantine inc. Of course under the above plan t would be necessary that every cat- sle owner take an active interest, &. q cooperate with the inspectors on the ground.
 E The State Department offers to buy the cement and furnish man to to the concrete work, also furnish he ingredients for making the dip, and ask2 the farmers in the differ mt localities to haul tho material and furnish the labor to complete the gats.
 Representative stock men and far ners from all parts of the county we're in attendance, and a great many spoke of the urgent need of a united sffoft to free their county of ticks. It seems that greater number of cattle than ever died last year with Texas fever, and there is Gtrong sentiment in favor of ridding the county of this disease. It was also 2ointed out that in those counties which. have been placed above the quarantine line, cattle ~are worth from three to eight dollars more on he head, which would mean a great aggregate increase on Bone County's l5.000 cattle.
 It was decided to hold meetings in the near future in each dipping
