Dead of Two Armies Cremated on
Field Without Ceremony.

The bodies of 10 soldiers killed in
the fighting incident to the capture

way of disposing of the bodies.
The dead Of both forces were placed
in the pyre and no word of prayer or
funeral services was said. PERMITS
sion was given by United States Con-
sui johnson to search the roof of the
American consulate for bodies, few
men having been reported killed there,
but search failed to disclose any.

Tickets will be on sale for the event shortly. and crowded house can be anticipated for the Sage of East Aurora.

law was copied after the Kansas law

companies selling irrigation and land
company stocks. Auditor Oathout
says these amendments are not needed
in Arkansas. All companies which
have stock for sale must now submit
to an investigation by the auditor be-
fore doing so, which will protect the
people from fake stock selling con-

would probably be completely at sea
now, and the entire state aroused over
false reports which are being circulat-

acting governor from different parts
of eastern Arkansas, telling of conta-
gion and want. The acting governor
has communicated with his represen-
tatives in every community specified,
and they have reported the reports
groundless, and the messages, for the
most part, sent in by people who would
sell supplies to the government should
it render aid in their communities. The
only section of the state where assist
ance is needed is in Crittenden and

Meals Came Too Swiftly.

Representative Mckinley of Illinois
is man with only an average appe-
lite. He is also absent minded on oc-
casions One noon recently he went
into the restaurant at the White
House end of the capitol and. ate a
rather hearty meal. 1t was not an
elaborate meal compared to the
amount of ratons that Ollie James,
for example, might cons Ime, but it
was all Mckinley cared for. And
here was the tragedy: Just as he had
finished, he remembered that he was
to be a guest at luncheon party at
an uptown hotel. He had barely time
to keep that engagement 1t was a
struggle eating his way through this
second luncheon for politeness sake,
but he got through it, though feeling
like a stuffed owl.
We'll" says he to himself, TIL at
least not eat again for day or So"
But he hadn't any more than thought
that til he remembered a dinner en-
gagement. 1t was course dinner
and each course looked as big to Nc"
Kinley as a bale of excelsior.
All he ate the next day was part

if we may so call it, as it has not been
definitely named-bids fair to be one
of the strongest forces for general adj

The members, now numbering more
than 70, are responding promptly. At
the last meeting, Prof. Denney gave
an excellent talk on "don'ts," giving
examples of the negative influence
from childhood to maturity, cOmpar-
ing that influence with the affirmative,
asserting that what we need in the
home, the school, the church and the
community is affirmation of the right
tendencies. Prof. Parker also gave a
most clever and unique talk on Re

ject ably, showing many of the ad-
vtantages and disadvantages of the

hour was spent All members are
looking forward to the next meeting,

to be very much out of the regular
