American Fruit Abroad

Every year sees more fruit from the
United States sold in Europe and
Great Britain. Apples, prunes, lem
ons, oranges, peaches and in fact ev-
cry kind of fruit that will carry well, is
sold in foreign countries. The con-
sular service is doing good deal to
extend the consumption of American
fruit and to encourage American grow
ers to widen their markets. 1t is be-
lieved that the opening Of the Panama
canal will be Of very pronounced aid to
the fruit growers Of the Pacific Coast
in reaching cheaply, not only the mar
kets Of Europe and Great Britain, but
also Of the Atlantic Coast. Improved
refrigeration service and fast steam
ships will help to bring this about.

How to Keep Eggs Fresh

City Engineer Morton Mccartney OF
Spokane says that he has finally solved
the problem OF having fresh eggs in
zero weather when the hens refuse to
supply the demand and the price
ranges from 90 to rs cents per dozen.
For two years he has followed the for
mula given by the United States de-
partment OF agriculture for the preser-
walton of eggs, and has found it to
work like charm. He has II hens
which at this season Of the year lay
more eggs than he requires and the
surplus eggs are carefully stored away
for winter use. For two winters he has
had all the eggs that he needs, and
now has fine start on his supply for
the coming winter.
Engineer Mccartney uses what is
called at drug stores water glass So
luton" one quart Of which will make
II quarts Of egg preserving liquid
when mixed with water. He places
the liquid in jar and drops in the
eggs just as they come fresh from the
hens. The eggs must be clean from
the nest, and any attempt to wash
them may result in loss. When the
eggs are taken from this solution six
months or even a year later Mr.. Ma
cartney says they are as fresh as when
first placed there.

MOUNTAIN PEAK
FALLS INTO LAKE
One of the Highest in the Cascade
Range TumbIed

According to a story told by c. M.
Snow of Ellensburg a we'll known
sheepman, the jagged peak of Mount
ingalls,, one Of the highest in the Cas-
cade range, which for ages has reared
its head among the clouds, is now en-
quilted in the waters of Icicle lake, at
an elevation Of 5000 feet above sea
level.
Mr.. Snow recently returned from the
mountains. He knows practically ev-
cry foot of the country to the west and
north of Ellensburg. Some time within
the last two weeks, according to Mr..
Snow, the high peak that has stood
like sentinel at the head of ingalls,
creek, near Mount Stewart, split to
pieces, and tumbled into the canyon
and Icicle Lake. The little lake is
about 10000, and is fed by mountain
streams. 1t is one Of the highest bod
les of water in the state. Immense
boulders, hundreds Of feet in circum-
ference, blocked the trail up the noun
tainside, while the surrounding coun-
try was covered with rocks and frag-
ments.
1t is generally believed that the peak
was split by the same earthquake that
worked such havoc in Alaska a few
days ago, although no shock was felt
in Cle-Elum, Roslyn or any of the
neighboring villages.

ITEMS OF INTEREST
FROM THE NORTHWEST
WCkersham Home Rule Bill For Alaska
Has Been Passed by the Senate

After decade OF incessant endeavor
on the part Of those interested in Alas
ka, home rule for that territory, is at
last within hailing distance. The SEN
ate has passed the Wickersham bill,
another form Of which has also been
approved by the house. The measure
is now ready for conference, following
which it can be disposed of speedily.
It is reasonably certain that President
Taft will sign it forthwith, despite the
fact that he favored a commission form
of government. Besides providing
home rule, the bill authorizes an Alaska
Railroad Commission, to advise con-
gress as to the feasibility of a govern
ment owned and operated railroad in
Alaska.
Following every railroad accident in
this country, where life is lost, some
one asks why American railroads are
not operated as safely as those OF
Great Britain. The notion prevails
widely that travel is not so dangerous
abroad as here, because fewer passen-
gers are killed on British railroads.
The fact is overlooked, however, that
the total railroad mileage of the United
Kingdom is $4,000 miles, as against
240, 900 miles in the United States.
Careful investigations made Of the real
facts by Julius Kruttschnitt, vice-presi-
dent of the Hartman system, proves
that American railroads do not kill
nearly as many people, in proportion,
as the English. Last year, fourteen
passengers lost their lives in British
wrecks. Against this is placed the re-
cord of the Southern Pacific and Union
Pacific lines, having almost as many
miles Of tracks as all the railroads in
the United Kingdom. The two Amer
lean lines did not kill single passen-
ger in the fiscal years ending June 80,
1910 and 1911.

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 a 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 a IT, year-old, for one year for larceny, is a husky giant of 175 pounds, and six feet ? l-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 ueti- 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 count. lcourt October IA, 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.
 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 member of the peni- tentiary board, which had a number of routine matters under connidera- tion.

.ENCAMPMENT TO END
 TODAY AT ALEXANDRIA,
THE CONWAY COMPANY VILE GO DIRECT TO RIFLE RANGE
 AT BEEBE.

Alexandria, La, Aug. 1, 1912
 The sun is shining, but as there is no work required, the boys are in groups in the shade enjoying the breezes. Private Camp has just come in from guard duty and demanded dinner. Lieut.. Jones is officer of the guard, with Privates Camp, Brown and w. Gaines detailed from our com pany. Private Gaines secured order ly the colonel, and yesterday during field maneuvers he was in command of the water wagon and rife squad
 Go. A worked from 7:15 to 10 p. m. without a single man giving out. We marched five miles, each man cooking his own dinner. At 12:30 our battal- ion moved into position for battle. Our company was selected by special orders delivered by the major to the command orally on the field, to act as first end advance line of the defense.
 At the battle of Camp Stafford the WOIh ol oul SoiiPdiiy was SSPSSitiiy commended by the regulars.
 Lieut.. Cunningham was given a squad to act as an ambush and attack the enemy's advance. He was so sue cessful that the referee declared that the squad had theoretically annihilat- ed a whole company of the enemy. Following the battle, we pitched a bivouac shelter camp at p. m. on the parade ground, attended boxing contest between regular and mili- tiaman, and at 10 p. m. broke camp and came in for the night, without light or noise.
 This morning the boys all put their tents in order, cleaned up nicely and when church call sounded several at tended services. Chaplain Hall gave fine talk and the band furnished music.
 A ball game is on this afternoon be- tween regulars and militiamen. think three Co A boys made the mi litia team. I regret to report that Private Ray is in the hospital, but Dr. Ellis of Hot Springs says he will be all right in a day, he thinks.

REV. J. J. HURT STILL
 CONWAY BOOSTER
FORMER CONWAY PASTOR MAX. ING GOOD IN HIS NEW
 WORK.

In letter to the editor of the Log Cabin Democrat, Rev. John Jeter Hurt, former pastor of the Baptist church in this city, has the following to say of Conway and her people: MT. Frank E. Robins, Conway, Ark. {: My Dear Frank-At last I have gotten settled down pretty well, and have some time I can claim as my own. T speak the truth when I say I know of no city in all the land where there is a finer com munity interest than in Conway, and where all classes and creeds cooper ate more heartily in working out the common veal The one dominant fac tor in all this notable development has been, and is, The Log Cabin Dem- ocrat. l shall want to keep up with the paper and it's constituency, there fore, not only because they are my friends, but also that I may keep in formed as to the moulding influence of a periodical that is published for the public rather than by the public, and that can point unhesitatingly to it's record as a vindication of it's pol icies.
 "Now, having said that much about the noble sheet, let me write down in italics, lest you overlook the most im- portant thing in this letter, you failed to put my name on y0ur subscription list, and I have missed it about as much as I would the Associated Press reports. Be good enough to get me on for this week, if you can.
 You will be glad to know that my work opens up we'll here. The prayer meeting attendance has kept up to and above 100, and the Sunday ser vices are far better attended than dared expect. Just now I am laying plans to lift an indebtedness of S15,- 900 which has been standing for some time We have been received most SI el(lOdois pS OA IIt Baptist churches, and also by leaders of the other denominations, and are happy in the prospects for our work. But many time, as the day wears on, and the shadows begin to gather, we follow the sun as he journeys to- ward our far western home and pray God for all that there may be light at eventide.
 Sincerely your friend,
 JOHN JETER HURT"
