In nearly every community there are men and women who go or send to the larger cities for many of their purchases, believ- ing that they can do better" in the stores of the cities than at home.
 These people are usually not malicious barriers to the growth and development of the commun- ities in which they live, Never. theless they retard rather than assist the progress of the entire locality.
 In a certain small Southwest ern town a woman, whom I will call Mrs. A. had just completed a very handsome home and had signified an intention of purchas- ing her furniture in distant city.
 A local furniture dealer was very persistent in his solicitation for the order, but to no avail Mrs. A simply thought she want ed better goods than could be had in his store, althought she had not inspected his stock.

.DEREL|CT MAY BE TITANIC
WRECKED VESSEL STANDING ON END IN ATLANTIC REPORTED.
Believed Submerged Hulk Is Forward Half of Ill-Fated White Star
 Liner Sunk April IA, 1912.

Philadelphia, Aug. 4.-Much of the mystery that surrounded the sinking of the White Star liner Titanic on April 14,-l912, may be dispelled by the discovery of a wreck, believed to be part of the hulk of the ill-starred vessel standing on end on the spot where the disaster occurred.
 Capt. Remnant of the British steam ship Luciline, which has arrived at Philadelphia from Bordeaux, reported sighting the derelict, and the United States Photographic office has begun an investigation to learn more about the wreck Lieutenant Commander Landenberger, United States hydro grapher, stationed in this city, at- taches much importance to the re- port
 Should the wreckage sighted by the 'Luciline prove to be part of the re- mains of the Titanic the story of the memorable wreck would be re-writ- ten. The fact that after more than a year the hulk stands vertically in the waves, protruding eight feet or more above the surface, would indicate that submerged ledge of rock had pre- vented the wreck from going to the actual bottom of the sea. If such a ledge exists-and evidences of one were reported as long ago as 1723- then it is regarded as possible that the laundering of the Titanic was caused by the hidden obstruction rip ping open her hull, as much as by her collision with the iceberg. Should these theories prove to be facts Capt. Smith. who was in command of the Titanic and perished when his vessel went down, might be absolved, 1t Is said, of the charge of lack of vigi- lance and damage suits against the International Mercantile Marine, based on the disaster, would fail, To- cal admiralty lawyers say, for the same reason.
 Capt. Remnant of the Luciline be- lieves that what he saw was the wreck of the Titanic or a part of It. It was covered with marine growth of comparatively recent formation.
 It had the appearance, Capt Rem nant said, of being held down by an chors in shoal waters and of beine kept up by water-tight compartments He is of the opinion that 1t was tn forward part of the Titanic, which. it was said, split in two just befors j sank

KIRBY MAY BE CANDI.
 DATE AGAINST CLARKE

Little Rock, Aug. 4-Unless signs fail, William F. Kirby, for. mer Attorney General, and now Associ ate Justice of the Supreme Court of Arkansas, will be a can. didate against James P. Clarke for the United States Senate in the primary to be held next March. Judge Kirby has so far made no definite announcement
 He was defeated by Geo. w. Don. aghey for Governor, and was la. ter named as one of the special attorneys of the state in the rate litigation through the influence of Gov. Donaghey. They have been very close friends and many believe both will not make the race. Gov. Donaghey announced some months ago that he would be a candidate against Senator Clarke. Smead Powell of Cam den is another mentioned as a possible candidate for the Sena. torial toga, but his strength is practically the same as that of Judge Kirby, and him, in the race it is hardly probable that Mir. Powell would be a candidate.

A few days prior to the date of the contemplated trip this progressive merchant learned, quite by accident, that her pur- chasing list included a certain standard make of kitchen cabinet and a well-known refrigerator. Both articles he kept in stock and, as he explained to Mrs. A, his prices were the sa re as else where, and he could save her the freight.
 Her visit to his store for the purchase of these two articles resulted in her buying practical ly the entire bill, amounting to over a thousand dollars. She found the class of goods desired and prices were right.
 1 do not ask any person to patronize his local merchants if he can do better elsewhere, but you should always give your local merchants the benefit of your purchases if they have the art icles wanted and will offer as good inducements in the way of prices and service.

 Powers gave the names of those who had approached him and the phraseology of the offers. Matt I. Sullivan and Theodore J. Roche, in the attorney general. declined to dis cuss Powers story beyond saying:
