 Arrive.

Somerville, N. J., Sept 2.-Eliza Hawk, an 1S-year-old Someryille girl, is in the hospital here as the result of falling into a 60-foot well on the J. B. Duke estate.

Workers nearby who heard faint cries for half an hour, traced the source, and lowering a noosed rope, managed to bring the girl to the surface. where she fainted from exhaustion. When she was re yiyed she said she could not have held on a minute longer.

ENGLISH AND FRENCH TO
 BUILD CANAL IN NICARAGUA

London, Sept, 2.-A sensational re- port that an Anglo-French syndicate Is being formed to construct a canal through Central America to counter act the Panama Canal difficulty over tolls for non-American ships, was re- ceived here today from Berlin.
 The origin of the report was un- known, but the telegram said it was the principal topic of conversation upon the German bourse.
 It received little credence as no con- firmation was obtainable. Inquiries in Paris elicited no information there.
 According to the Berlin reports, negotiations are already under way with Nicaragua with a view to build ing the canal across that country.

NEWS OF THE
 STATE CAPITOL
MEETING OF PEN BOARD
ACTING COVER RODGERS WILL NOT EXERCISE PADON
 POWER.

Little Rock, August 6.-At a meet ing of the state penitentiary board Monday, considerable attention was given to report of Superintendent Chapple that advantage is being talk en of the institution in many in stances by sending men there above the age of IS, which is the maximum fixed by law. Sandy Mcdonald of Greene county, committed as IT, year-old, for one year for larceny, is a husky giant of 175 pounds, and six feet ? 1-2 inches in height. Super intendent Chapple thinks he must be older and that he is rather large to be kept with small boys. No action was taken.
 Attention was called to the fact that county judges in some counties are sending delinquent boys, and boys guilty of small offenses, to the reform school, when they have no authority to do so. The superintendent was in structed not to receive them.
 State Superintendent Geo. B. Cook and wife, who are sojourning in the east, will leave Oak Bluff, Mass, for Boggsville, N. r., next Thursday, and expect to reach home the latter part of next week.
 Before his departure for the east, Governor Donaghey acted upon peti- tions that had been filed with him for the pardon of Basil Clyde Atkins, aged 19 years, and Ernest F. Barry, aged 20 years, who had been convict ed in Pulaski county court October 14, 1910, of burglary and larceny and sentenced to 12 years in the peniten- tiary. He refused to pardon them, but reduced their sentences to six years each.
 Those who expect to take advant- age of an acting governor to secure pardons they have reason to believe Governor Donaghey might refuse, are liable to be disappointed if they jour- ney to Little Rock for the purpose. Acting Governor Rodgers has an- nounced that he will not consider ap- plications for pardons outside the regular order. The first day of each month is pardon day, and by that time Governor Donaghey will be on duty again.
 Governor Rodgers first official duty was to sit as a member of the peni- tentiary board, which had number of routine matters under connidera- tion.

That WoolnQ Ham.

Ham, it has always seemed to us, varied more than any other articles over which blessings are mumbled in degree to palatableness, fragrance and invitation. The variation is due to the manner of approach. If a per con is off his appetite, ham does the best when served as an Arizona break fast-something else for the man and the ham for the dog.
 But supposing you have been hunt ing, rising early and staying late. You have lost your lunch. You have to trudge home over a. hard road. You pass farmhouse, and from its open door there comes the sound of sig Eling ham and the heavens breath of its perfume. It matters not if that ham sprang from a raZorback hog in the wilds of Arkansas, you recognize that that ham is the most glorious flower that grows, the worlds desire. the inner fountain of Eden. the pillar ct fire by night, the sweet influences of the Pleiades and the deliverance from envy, hatred and malice and all uncharitablehess. For the next three miles yoI cant say word to your companion because of watering mouth.

Jenny Ceddes.

Of the memories that gather around St. Giles cathedral, Edinburgh, none is more cherished by the Scotsman than the story of Jenny Geddes. Charles l., determined to force epis- copacy, commanded that on July 23. 1637, the English church service should be read in every parish church m Scotland. On that Sunday a great crowd gathered in St. Giles, and when Dean Hannay in g surplice, began to read the prayers such a commot1or ensued that his voice was drowned. One voice, however, rose above the din-Jenny Geddes. Out! Out!" she cried. Does the false loon mean to say his black mass at my lug?" And seiz1ng her stool she threw 1t at the head of the astonished dean. There followed such an uproar that the ser vice had 60 be abandoned.
 ln modern and more peaceful times this event. momentous in It's outcome has been commemorated by two me morial tablets in the cathedral. One is to Dean Hannay, the other, erected by Lord President Inglis, is to the memory of "a brave Scotswoman Janet Geddes, who on July 23, 1887 struck the first blow in the grea, struggle for freedom of conscience which after a conflict of half cen tury, ended in the establishment oi civil and religious liberty"

IS MADE OF RUSTLESS IRON
Massive Pillar Near Delhi Has Re sisted Corrosion During a Period
 of 2,9oo Years.

On the plains of Delhi in India there stands massive iron pillar, nearly sixty feet in length and weighing about nineteen tons. This ancient column is literally monument to the "antiQuated' processes and metallur~ gists that produced it, for it has re- sisted the attack of the elements dur ing a period of about 2.900 years in which fully a million times its bulk of iron or steel has umbled into useless dust. No one would suggest that civi- liZed man return to the primitive and labOrious methods by which the iron of this column was made so long ago, and besides there are not men enough living today to supply our present de mands, even if all of them should en- gage in this type of manufacture. But, granting that the world would pay for limited amount of iron as passive" as this old Kutub pillarfi it is very doubtful whether modern iron-workers know how 10 make 1t. Probably this specimen Of unusual iron was the re- suit of accident rather than design, as far as its resisting qualities are concerned, and it stands today the sur rival of the fttest, rot so much be- cause it was intended to be, as be cause it proved to be, the most last iDg. For 1t is not likely that proc ess known to give iron of this kind would ever have been used so seldom, since the importance of rust-resist' ing iron and steel was as much appre- oiated in those days as now. NO doubt all the older processes made ron and steel which rusted less-yes, and some of it very much less-than what is usually produced today. but there is great difference between this mere excellence and a resist ance to corrosion during thirty cen :uries such as this column shows EverybOdy's Magazine.

He's Recuperatlne Now.

Twas Friday afternoon, and the ed itorial stan were hard at work, when suddenly the pen of the chief sub editor ceased its inky scamper.
 q say" he called. Ifs it more cor rect to refer to a man who goes uI in q balloon as an aeronaut or bal loOnist?"
 "Balloonist," growled the special commissioner, who had just drifted in.
 "Balloonatic," suggested the story cite editor, with suspicious glance toward the fighting editor.
 "Aeronaut's the right word" said the man who writes the paragraphs decisively, and I can prove it.'
 Nonsense" growled the stan ir chorus. You can't!"
 "Of course I can! You see, it's this way. When a man goes up in g balloon he goes up in the air. But as A matter of fact he doesn't know whether he'll remain in the air-or-not Seer"
 When the curtain fell the fighting editor was furtively stalking that poor paragraph editor, and in his hand he held his new club.

SCHOOL BOARD
 BEGIN CANVASS
RAISE FUNDS FOR SCHOOL
RESPONSE HAS BEEN MOST CORDIAL, ACCORDING TO
 COMMITTEE.
From Tbursday's Daily.

From Thursdays Daily.
 The committee appointed by the school board to raise the necessary funds to supplement the district and state funds for the maintenance of the Conway public school another year has begun it's work. The re- sponse, on the whole, from those al- ready seen, has been most cordial. Some of the usual difficulties of ac- complishing such an undertaking, however, have already been met with. This is not to criticise any in- ,dividual, but the thing that seems to put the severest limitations on the willingness of some to give to this most worthy public enterprise Cor ne cessity) is that they will reap no di- rect personal benefit from the school because they have, or will have, no children in the school another year.
 It does not require an argument to convince any public-spirited man that the greatest assets of any community are it's educational interests, most fundamental and important of which lis the public school. It does not mat ter whether a man is a patron of the school or not, he shares both directly and indirectly in all the benefits that come to the community through the school.
 Conway holds a well deserved rep utation throughout the state for the excellence of her schools, but her pub- lie school has been hampered for some time on account of crowded classes and shorter school term than most schools in towns of this size enjoy. And because the school
 revenues have not been sufficient to meet the running expenses of the school and pay maturing bonds or the new building, the shortage has reached such proportions that some thing has to be done to relieve the
 situation and at the same time con. tinue the school uninterruptedly witf
 an additional teacher added to tho faculty. Let no one, therefore, fee that he is not interested in the pub

From Fridays Daily

From Fridays Daily
 Little Rock, August 2.-In regard to the statement of Captain L. D. Hickey, the deposed captain of the Jonesboro company, that the investi- gation at Fordyce was unfair and that the governor had called upon partsans of his to give evidence against the captain, Governor Dona- ghey yesterday emphatically denied the assertion and said that the inves- tigation was just as fair as could possibly have been made. He said that he had not considered whether those called upon to assist in the in- vestigation were his political friends or not, but upon recalling the affair he found that not one in ten of them were.
 "There is nothing in Capt. Hickey s statement whatever" said the gover- nor, I didn't ask any questions about that side of the matter, and certainly it was no political matter. The first thing 1 did after arriving at Fordyce was to call the officers to- gether and talk to them, and then l called on the mayor, the sheriff and the marshal and asked them to pro- cure reliable citizens to give evidence in the natter
