WOULD RELEASE DIR. H. NJ. JONES
Attorneys Hope to Free Man Charged
 With .Complicity in Murder.

Little Rock, May i.-While Dr. H.. M. Jones works away on his five year sentence in the penitentiary, attorneys will argue to have his case tried again, or thrown out of court. Leham Kay of Salem, on Wednesday afternoon filed a trans cript of appeal in the Supreme court ill the Jones case.
 Jones was convicted in Fulton county as an accessory before the fact in the murder of Charles Moore, for whose death Lifus Davis is now serving 2i years in the peni- tentiary. Jones, a horse doctor, was accused of having Knowledge of the intended murder of Moore, and others implicated have testified that Jones assisted in directing the crime.
 A son of Jones was killed while. the gang to which Davis and How ard Sayres belonged was attempting to rob a bank at Mammoth Springs.
 Savers was last week acquitted of complicity in the killing of Moore, Lifus Davis being taken back from the penitentiary to testify against him.
 pr. Jones has been in the peni- tentiary several months, and will make no effort to be released dur ing the pendancy of his appeal. Savers is now being held on a charge of shooting another man in Fulton county.

ECZEMA.

Don't close the pores of the skin and drive it in. Persons afflicted with eczema, scrofula, psoriasis, ulcers, pimples, etc., frequently have recourse to strong astringent external remedies to dry up and close the pores of the skin in order to get temporary relief, forgetting in their anxiety that by so doing they are forcing the poisonous germs back into the blood to reas- sert itself a month later, in the old disease area, or on some other part of the body in a more malignant form. How much better to help the blood throw off the impurities which cause these diseases and get permanent relief. Blood is the most important constituent of the. human body and when impure is the un- deriving cause of most of our ail- ments. Take Bloodine to purify the blood and apply Bloodine Oint- ment to the skin and you will cure the cause of this most dreaded dis ease. Guaranteed to cure by your druggist.

FISHING AND CROQUET
 LEGAL SUNDAY SPORTS
Attorney General Moose Fails to Find Any Law to Give Grand JurieS Control Over These
 AmuSementS.

Little Rock, April 30.-Timid resi- dents of Montgomery county, who on. Sunday afternoon risked life and limb in a game of croquet, and then worried all week because the grand jury was in session. need have no further fears. Attorney General w. L. Moose has rendered decision in which he announces it is not con- lrary to law to play this game on the Sabbath. The attorney general was asked for his opinion on the matter, but try as he would, he could not find anything chasing croquet as a sporting event.
 Another resident wanted to know if it was against the law to fish on the Sabbath, to which the attorney general replied it was not, so long as the fisherman did not make il his vocation. To fish for market on Sunday is a violation of the law.
 From Clarksville came the query: Can licensed Presbyterian min ister, U. s. A., perform a marriage ceremony" Attorney General Moose did not commend this species to the fOolkiller, but informed him a minister of this faith, the same as Hard Shell, Soft Shell, Foot Wash ing, or other species of Baptists; Methodists, Campbellites, Chris tians. EpiscOpalians. Catholic or any other religious creed, who have filed a certificate with the county clerk, may perform such a cere- mony. It is contrary to law for the minister without his credentials to perform a marriage ceremony.

'Please Don't Publish"

Every newspaper is familiar with the request, "Please do not publish anything about it." Sometimes it is made in the form of a demand and accompanied by threats of dire re- suits if acquiescence does not fol- low.
 There are a few things, the Louisville Herald says, the public ought to keep ill mind in the mat ter of newspapers relation to the printing of news.
 In the first place, a newspaper owes an obligation to it's whole cir cle of readers to print fair, com prehensive report of the days hap penings. It cannot overlook this responsibility merely to please in- dividuals. That policy involved an injustice to the many and favorit- ism to the few. Who shall be fa- vored?
 Much of the news that is printed unfortunately occasions annoyance and often heartache to somebody That is an unavoidable incident of the newspaper business. Is there justification for shielding from such consequences the man or woman who has influence, socially or in business, while the many who lack it must be treated without such consideration?
 Persons who wish to escape pub licity should be careful not to make news, or should count the cost of advertisement to the world as part of the price they must pay for what they have determined upon doing
 There are certain easily-defined zones of publicity. The individual who steps into any of these may count upon getting his name in the newspapers. One is the courts, civil and criminal. The man who goes to law invites advertisement Yet many men-and sometimes wOmen-appeal to a newspaper to suppress reports of legal proceed ings in order that they may be saved annoyance. The time to con- sider immunity is before resort to law
 Further, much injustice may be done by the suppression of news The tongue of gossip, uninformed of the real fact, can do a hundred times more injury to the innocent than publication of the truth will do to those actually involved. Often newspaper is shielding the repu- tatiOn of a score from the scandal of suspicion when it is telling the truth about one who has incurred the liability to censure.
 Of two things the responsible newspaper will be jealously care ful-the good name of a woman and the reputation of a financial insti- tuition. Both are of that delicacy to be easily hurt. The good name of a woman is treasure beyond price, and a cloud cast upon the reputation of a bank or trust com pany may cause loss to thousands who are dependent upon it's sol vency.
 But this lesson the public should learn-the way to avoid publicity is to avoid departure from the beat en track. And let this be added tC tiff you have diverged into tht danger zone the way to obtain con- siderate treatment is to assume that you are a subject for news and to take the newspapers into your confidence frankly and fully.
 Such confidence is rarely abused and assuredly never by any news paper that makes profession of de- cency or has regard for ethics.- Newspaper Auxiliary.
