When the call to line up for supper came all were ready and it may have been possible that the boys had a scant breakfast the l. next morning. The camp disbanded I Saturday after a very successful months pleasure, several of the boys remaining the entire timeS all looking the camp is ideal. The new large sized kitchen, we'll equipped which was built last year is a fine addition. If more parents could see the benefits and good wholesome pleasure derived by the boys from these delightful outing under fine discipline and con ditions, they certainly would miss no opportunity to have their boys enjoy such privileges each season. The young men who assisted creditably in the comfort and pleasure of their guests were Victor Mouhon, Kenneth Haywood, Clifford Stratten, John Mo- Nance, Herbert Peterson, Ralph Mills, Ernest l.. Fitch was captured by the party as he was leaving camp for Bridgeport. Master Bobby Wood hall7 son of Charles WoodhaH,, diFec- tor of the camp entertained the conI- pany with his pet snakes.

HOUND SCENTS { TRAIL OF MADMAN.
POSSE NEARING. WHEREABOUTS OF NEAR-LUNATIC WHO IS BE- LEVIED TO HAVE BUTCH.
 BRED GIRL.

Carmel, Me, July 29-The armed posse led by Sheriff White, which has been beating the woods north of here since Friday morning in search Of the degenerate who murdered and then shockingly mutilated the body of IA. year-old Naomi Mitchell, today came upon the track of the man eight miles north of here, deep in a wooded ra- vine.
 Shortly before daylight, this morn- ing, Sheriff White was about to send back to Thomaston the State prison bloodhound which had failed to find trace of the assailant. Suddenly the dog began paying. He led them fc a scattered campfire where several strips of cloth, similar to the mater= ial of which little Naomi's dress was made, were found.
 Tn degenerate suspected of the rntr- der once was arrested for stealing certain articles of clothing and he was sent to an asylum for a year The same articles of Naomi Mitche1I's, clothing were missing when her body was found half nude in her fathers cornfield, Friday.
 The dog was put on the trail which he had scented out and all but two of the members of the posse began beating the heavy woods which stretch almost unbroken across the Canada line. The other two returned here for provisions and more men to continue the manhunt.

ARMY BOYS ARE ENTHUSIASTIC
 MOOSEvELTS
EVERY SOLDIER AT CAMP LEE IS ARDENT ADMIRER OF COL.
 ROOSEVELT.

Camp Walter H. Lee, near Hunt ington Center, where Go. B. First Bat talion, U. S., Engineers are at work preparing for the coming was game, is a regular hot-bed of Bull Mooses. Meese or Moosers, whatever the proper name. Every member, of the company at work there is a Bull Mooser and those who are not don't dare to openly confess that much.
 A visit to the camp by a Farmer correspondent yesterday disclosed the fact that they are all aeGent admirers of ex-President Roosevelt They de- clare that as an exponent of the stren- uous life and an advocate of better army rations and increased pay while he was president, he has won 3 place in their hearts that will insure their admiration of him forever It was stated that this feeling is shared by every last man of the regular army. It was directly as a result of his in- sistence for it. that an appropriation was made in the Army and Navy bill which provided for an allowances of butter and milk, (fresh milk if readily obtainable and if not condenced milk is supplied by the Commissary Dept. ) for each enlisted man in addition to the regular army ration. Up to that time the men were obliged to eat dry bread and drink black coffee, as the army ration provided for no such lux uries as these. A substantial increase was also made in their pay at the same time and other indications of a more generous feeling on the part of the General Staff toward the man in the ranks have~.been noted from time to time since ex-President Roosevelt first started a most active campaign for the betterment of the living condi- tions of the man behind the gun, so that it is no small wonder he is held in high esteem by them.

 About the meeting in Hartford re- gently when the initial step was taken l toward organizing statewise, the edi- tor writes:
 ."The meeting of about 100 men from various portions of the state which took place at Hartford on July 16, and
 issued the. call for a state convention of those believing in the formation of a third party, is likely to become not able. as time goes on, for the patriotic movement which it helped to form. It has been many long years since Con- necticut has seen a gathering of citi-
 zens of so sturdy a character. They
 were real men: they didn't talk eK-
 pediency, but expressed their belief that the time had come when the peO-
 pie should do what was right and see about ideals although it was plain
 they had them. Everybody who spoke talked common sense patriotism, and
 there was no partisanship. It looks as though the third party is not going to compromise when it comes to mat ters in which principle is involved; it apparently will have no use for that political phrase, You can catch more flies with molasses than vinegar be-
 cause it isn't after flies.
 "It was a good meeting It made you think of meetings they must have
 had in Connecticut generations ago in
 relation to affairs of the state and 1 nation.''
 Many inquiries have been made as to the origin of the name, Bull | Moose" and how it came to be applied to the third party of Roosevelt move ment. The name is not old but there are few who know the origin. For | the benefit of those who are curious l in this respect the following is given i On May 28 Theodore Roosevelt, at the Outlook office in New York, was
 asked how he felt.
 "Fine! Just like a bull moose ] that's the way I feelr' he exclaimed.
 "But the bull moose belongs te | Speaker Ed Merritt of the assembly. '
 some one said.
 l "I don't know how Merritt got it,
 said the colonel, "but I know they used to call me Bull Moose thirty
 years ago. and I surely didn't borrow
 the title from him.
 The Bull Moose" title spread and
 within twenty-four hours was a fix
 ture and is now generally used as l the third-party designation.

Letter to Charles E. Chatneuff :, Bridgeport, Conn.

Dear Sir: Todd & Downing, con tractors and builders, Morgan City, La, have painted Deyoe for for 3 S1c,a or Devoe than of any other paint they have used. That means that a job costs less with Devoe; not only for paint, for labor as well.
 They paint nothing else. Devoe ex- clusively. They have said nothing about the comparative wear of Devoe and otn- CTS: oversight, may be; perhaps too soon for that. But Devoe IS the strongest paint; that's why least gal Ions: best wear, same reason. Least cost and longest time between jobs.

 MT. Evans was born and reared on a farm in our neighbor county (Izard) and comes of one of the best families in North Arkansas. He has been a citizen of Indepen- dence county twelve years, ten years of which time he has lived in Batesville. He has been in the employ of the Weaver Dowdy Company for six years, and mem- bers of this well known firm speak in the highest terms of his ability and integrity. He is very courteous and agreeable gentle man, and no doubt will make the people a careful and efficient ser want, should he be chosen for the position he seeks.

PASSENGER WRECKED
Engine Hurled Down 40 Foot En- bankment and Engineer
 Seriously Injured

West-bound White River pas senger train No. 210 was wrecked near Calico Rock Tuesday morn ing. Engineer Dan Elliott was SC. riously injured. Fireman Rout- gong was slightly injured in jump. ing from the engine. No one else was hurt.
 The wreck was caused by the engine striking a huge stone that had rolled down the mauntainside and lodged upon the track.
 Engineer Elliott saw the stone but not until the train was almost upon it, as there is a sharp curve at that point. He told the fire. man to jump, Elliott remaining al the throttle in an effort to check the speed of the train as much as possible before 1t struck the stone By so doing. he performed a heroic deed and perhaps saved the lives of number of people.
 When the engine struck the stone the engine and tender were thrown from the track and hurled down a 40-foot embankment, and would have rolled into the river had 1t not been for some trees standing near the waters edge.
 None of the cars left the track except the baggage car, and it was not ditehed but only derailed.
 The track was badly torn up and and traffic delayed several hours the east-bound passenger due here at 7:10 p. m. being delayed until 1:30 a. m.
 Engineer Elliott was taken to the hospital at Little Rock. Several of his ribs were broken and he was otherwise badly bruised and burn ed, but 1t is thought that he will recover.

STATEWIDE IS MOVING Initiative Petitions Being Filed and Plans Made for Notable
 Campaign Tour

Fifty thousand signatures to the Statewide Prohibition petition by May 8, is the goal that has been set by the Rev. Frank Barrett of Little Rock, and his co-workefs who are engaged upon the initia- tion of statewide law. And they are going about it systematic ally.
 The workers actively engaged in the organization and the propa- ganda are Rev. Frank Barret, Rev. E. J. A. Mckinney, Rev. J. II. Bishop, Rev. J. A. Anderson, Ed L. Salyers, W. w. Nelson fPme Bluff, Rev. J. F. Jernigan Mark ed Tree) and L. C. Craig (Walnut Ridge1. Others who are aiding the cause as much as their time will permit, are Rev. w. K. Rich ardson of Little Rock, Hon. Clay Sloan, Commissioner of Agricul- ture, Dr. J. w. Conger, President of Central Baptist College, and Rev. 1. c. Mcclure of Argenta. It IS the purpose to have the state completely covered by the first of March.
 The petitions are being circulat- ed in each county under direction of the State organization. There are spaces for 58 names on each petition, and as rapidly as they are filled they are sent to headquar- ters in Little Rock, for record, and are filed by Dr. Barrett with the Secretary of State. The first were filed by him last week.
 J. c. Hollenbeck, Assistant Gen. eral Passenger Agent of the Mis- souri Pacifc-Iron Mountain, is making out the itinerary for the proposed State Wide Prohibition Special that will tour the State from about the middle of July to the middle of August, after the completion of the initiation petition. It is planned that Hon. w. J. Bry- an and other prohibition speakers of national reputation shall accom- pany the train, and 1t will be the most notable campaign of the kind in the history of the state, not excepting that for the adoption of the 1 & K Amendent, when Col. Bryan was cheif speaker.
 Already there are 131 towns listed for the tour; and as many more will be added as it will be possible to arrange for. It is pro- posed that there shall be State wide picnic at each town on the day of the Specials arrival. Local speakers will be provided, and the noted speakers on the Special will be heard during the hour or more the train is able to remain before leaving for the next point.
