JUDGE C. ". HAYS
 ON STATE ISSUES
Devoted Much Time 10 Mr. Brun- didge and Reasons for Not Meet ing Him in Joint Campaign-
 Would Reduce Bonded Debt

Judge George w. Hays made a campaign address Thursday night at the court house before a fair sized audience. He was introduced with a few brief remarks by Mark P. Olney.
 In beginning his speech, Judge Hays stated his reasons for declin- ing a joint debate with Hon. Steph- en Brundidge as these That their platforms were very similar, and would therefore lead only to un- pleasant personalities, oI which the citizens of Arkansas were tired.
 The first part of his speech was devoted to the refutatiou of some of his rivals arguments. together with the intimation that he could say a great many things to the dis credit of the latter if he so willed. In this latter half he declared him. self as being in favor of reducing the bonded indebtedness of the state, which he said would be ac- cOmplished by looking into the un- dertaXed property of the state and making everybody bear his share of the burden, without raising the rate. Judge Hays also expressed himself as favoring a more liberal appropriation to the educational and charitable institutions of the state, and said it was his hope to arrange things so that every boy and girl in the state, whether living in the city or on the farm. could have at least a high school educa- ton. In the same connection he mentioned the old soldiers. and said that he would do all in his power to have ample pensions provided for them. He then spoke of the river, road and penitentiary con- ditions. He said his influence would be used to rectify all defi- ciencies in these branches. He also said that he believed the pardon power, while a good and necessary thing, has been much abused of late. but that if he is elected he will pardon no one without a care- full investigation.
 Judge Hays was very much eX- hausted by his last few strenuous days. and his throat gave him con- siderable trouble, but he spoke with much spirit notwithstanding
 Judge Hays stated very emphat- ically in closing, that if elected he would serve out his term. and if his conduct in office warranted it he would ask for a second term. With that he would be satisfied and would seek no other office.

HONOR FOR GEN. SHAVER
Biz Celebration to Be Held at Cam den, at Which Fighting Bob
 Will Make Address.

Camden, May 2S-A fitting honor will be paid Gen, Fighting Bob Shaver of Mcna here next Tuesday by the Mary Graham Chapter, Chil- dren of the ConGederacy, when a big celebration will be held in this city. General Shaver will address the meeting on Jenkins Ferry and Col. Grinstead. Crosses of honor will be presented to Confederate veterans.
 The famous cannon, "Old Betsy which was captured from the Fed erals during the Civil war, and lat CT thrown into the Ouachita river to prevent its being recaptured, is being mounted on a stone pedestal by the Mary Graham Chapter.
 "Old Betsy" lay in the bottom of the river for about l5 years after the war closed. Then a negro div CT found it and it was hauled to the surface. At the first election of Grover Cleveland it was propped on logs and fired, After that it lay on the courthouse lawn until Wood TOW Wilson was elected, when the town was badly shaken for two days by it's blasts.
 Bronze tablets will be placed on each side of the stone pedestal set ting out the history of this ia nous gun.

Monster Oil Well Brought in at Trees. La. Is Still Burning Fierccly-IlaS Won
 dcrful Capacity.

TeNarkana. May 30.-Reports from Trees City. La~ where the big oil well was brought in Saturday, are that the well is still burning. The well caught fire soon after be- ing brought in, and it is said that the Standard Oil Company figure their loss at about $l,000 an hour.
 Sunday the well got beyond con trol and the streets were flooded with oil. The city officials ordered all the street lights cut off through fear of the oil igniting and grave danger prevailed for a while.
 The well is considered one of the largest in the Caddo field, and has a capacity of about l,50O barrels per day.
 Twenty-Five large boilers were sent from Shreveport and efforts are now being made to smother the flames. The reflection of the fire can be seen at Shreveport, Wlllch is about 10 miles from Trees City.
 IL is learned that a number or Teyarkana people will ask permis- sion to go on top of the new bank brilding tonight to see if the re- neclion can be seen from TeXar- kama. and it is expected a number of local people will go to frees City Sunday should the blaze not be checked before then.

COL. BRUNDIDCE IN
 NENA THURSDAY
Arrived From Hatfield About Noon. Coming Overland-WOrn by Hard Campaign, but Pleads
 Cause With NigOr.

The Hon. stephen Brundidge ar rived about noon Thursday, driving overland from Hatfield, where he made an address this morning. He was worn by the hardships of his campaign, but when he entered in- to his speech shortly after , o'clock he threw this off and addressed his hearers with his usual vigor. There was large audience in attendance, and all gave the closest attention to the speaker.
 Col. Brundidge seems to feel that the money of the state is being squandered ill unnecessary salaries and useless legislation, which he says will stop if he is elected gov ernor. He also says he is in favor of having the county judge let con- tracts to the highest bidder for the improvements of roads, which he says has proved to be highly eff ticient elsewhere. Col. Brundidge says he is not in favor of convict labor contracts, but would keep the negroes on the state farm to raise cotton and establish an honor sys- tenn among the whites and work the roads with them. This, he says, has been tried with great success in Colorado. The men have no uni form and are otherwise treated with greater freedom.
 If elected Mr. Brundidge prom iSes to reduce the penitentiary ex- penses and make the political grafters take to the woods"
 Referring to the present miXup in the governorship, he said: They are making Arkansas a joke and a by-word. l won't promise not to run for the Senate, but I will prom ise you that if I am elected l will fill my office until the expiration of my term unless death prevents"
 In connection with the school question, he said that he noticed with pleasure the increasing ten dency toward the establishment of agricultural colleges, and would favor the appropriation of more money to them and to the general school fund, and also to raising the salaries of the teachers.
 Col. Brundidge stated he had Judge Hays to joint de- bate, but so far the judge declined the issue.

Take Plenty of Time to Eat.

There is a saying that rapid eat- ing is slow suicide" If you have formed the habit of eating too rap idly you are most likely suffering from indigestion or constipation. which will result eventually in serious illness unless corrected. Di- gestion begins in the mouth. Food should he thoroughly masticated and insalivated Then when you have a fulness of the stomach or feel dull and stupid after eating. take one of Chamberlain's Tablets. Many severe eases of stomach trouble and constipation have been cured by the use of these tablets. They are easy to take and most agreeable in effect. Sold by all dealers.

REVIVAL OF BISHOP SLEEVE
to the Pulled Styles Popular
Some Seasons Ago.

There seems to be quite revival in
bishop sleeves though the top puff
80 far is not full enough to call much
attention TO the fashion. In one Of
the beautiful gowns seen at a display
OF autumn dress the sleeve was OF the
old-fashioned bishop shape, with a
tight-fitting cuff to the elbow and full
puff from there to the shoulder. It
made a pleasant change, and the puff
was not too full to be aggressive or to
break In any way the slim silhouette
OF modern dress.
In neckwear a noticeable feature is
the black tulle ruffle made for wear
with white gowns. The rufi.e is really
fixture, and IL is shaped like a
Robespierre collar. the ends being
fastened with plain tulle gathered in
with Jet. The black rufle makes a
pretty addition to the white gown, and
IL looks remarkably we'll on dresses

We can resort to European coun-
tries for inspiration. France, Italy,
Germany give countless recipes that
are economical and unusual. They
are good TO eat, too. very important
fact TO be considered.
In Italy there is wealth of cheap.
nourishing dishes which every house
keeper gives when meat is not re-

the Italian is macaroni and eggs com
bined in numerous clever ways.

the uppermost layer resembles pieces
OF bark instead of flour paste, is mixed
with sliced, hard boiled eggs and
cheese, with tomatoes deliciously fried
in butter, with poached eggs spriukled
with grated cheese, with fish or with
chestnuts In many different ways.
Macaroni and Chestnuts.--Takc 20
chestnuts. Grill them. Then remove
the skins, and cut the kernels In
halves. Cook some macaroni in sailed
water, add the chestnuts and when
cooked. drain and add butter, salt. pep
per and grated cheese. Turn into a
buttered fireproof dish. and place in
the oven, after sprinkling the top with
fine breadcrumbs and melted butter.
Serve when brown.
Palate ALA Provenzale.-A favorite
potato dish-to be served as a dish by
Itself-is known as palate ALA pro-
venzale." The Italian cook places a
large lump of butter In a saucepan.
She adds to IL few spoonfuls of the
best cooking oil. finely pared lemon
peel, finely chopped shallots, little
grated nutmeg, salt, pepper and
minced parsley. She then peels and
slices some potatoes. and turns them
into the frying pan. She cooks them
until nicely brown, but not hard. The
fire Is not too quick Finally. she
spIinkles lemon juice over them, and

Rice-Spinach.-They make, besides.
another maigre dish in Germany of
spinach and rice. While the spinach
is cooking. a quarter OF pound of
rice is boiled in milk-nicely seasoned
the spinach being then strained and
