WHY is LANCASTER FIRM?
Because Its Citizens Have Learned The
Truth.


Truth.
Robert Reynolds, Lancaster Wis.
says: Il suffered from kindey com.
plant for two years and my condition
became go bad that I had to give M
my work on the farm. Finally I pro-
cured Doan s Kidney Pills at Hatch s
Drug Store and the contents of a
few boxes restored me to good health. -
After reading this generous and en-
couraging report from Mr.. Reynolds.
those who have the misfortune to
suffer, as he did. will naturally long
to get similar relief. But to get the
same good as Mr.. Reynolds had. you
should get the same remedy. There
are of course, other kidney pills but
there are no other kidney pills the
same as Doan's. That is why Lancas-
ter people demand the genuine.

SWEET ARE THE THOUGHTS.

SWEET ARE THE. THOUGHTS.
Sweet are the thoughts that sa-

Sweet are the nights in careless

The poor estate scorns fortunes

Such sweet content, such minds,
such sleep, such bliss,
Beggars enjoy when princes oft

The homely house that harbors
quiet rest,
The cottage that affords no

The mean that 'grees with coun-

The sweet consort of mirth and

Obscured life sets down a type

A mind content both crown and

Glass of Fort Smith has appeal
ed to the supreme court from a
judgment of the Sebastian cir
cult court sentencing him to
three years in the penitentiary
for burglary. It is charged that
he robbed the house of c.. C.
Jackson, Feb. II, 1913, Of goods
valued at aboue $500. He was
later arrested in Oklahoma, The
evidence against him is almost
wholly circumstantial.
Among the exceptions taken
by the defense is one against
the following language used by
Prosecuting Attorney Little in
arguing the case before the
jury:
"Look at the Davidson case.
He murdered beautiful girl.
He cut her to pieces and hid her
limbs. They are going to
hang him on circumstantial ev-
idence. There is not a man on
this jury that wouldn't a hung
him. There was blood on his
axe and they had men with e.
= "tand upon their oath and to
nough respect for themselves
send him to the gallows. This
defendant was caught at Sails
saw, Oklahoma. with Jackson's
ring. Send him to the peniten-
tiary."
Exception is also taken to a
statement by the prosecuting
attorney that many witnesses
had been coming before that
court and "lying like a dog"

NEGRO TEACHERS
ARE ADVISED
How to Educate Children tc
Bring Respect and Success
to the Race.

They have had d profitable and
helpful session. Hon. ". NJ.
Shaver, the county superintend-
ent, and the principal Of the city
school (White) visited the insti-
tute and gave some helpful adj
vice and instruction. The sub
iect of agriculture and Indus
trial education were given prom
inent place in the daily work of
the institute.
A public platform meeting was
held last night at the A. NJ. E.
church on Main street, Professor
Wheeler Of the colored public
school presiding. Rev. H. R.
Mcmillan, pastor of the First
Baptist church, colored, and
Rev. J. C. Robinson of the A. M.
F.. church addressed the teach
ers and congregation. Rev. Nc
MILAN stressed the importance
of the Negro teacher insisting
on good government in the
school, thus bringing the youth
up to respect authority, and be-
come good citizens. He urged
the teachers to look upon their
positions as important ones, and
always keep in mind that in pro-
portion as the Negroes are ele-
waited morally, Intellectually and
industrially, in that proportion
will they be respected in the
communities in which they live.
Rev. J. G. Robinson, said, eve
have hundreds of white friends
in this country who wish for us
the very best in life. There are
others who speak of our short
comings, and not because they
hate the negro, but because of
the conduct of a certain class of
us in public places. The decent
Negro citizens should call on the
authorities and ask them to
stop that public nuisance called
a dance hall on Front street,
where noise is kept, and vulgar
dancing is carried on. I believe
/ if the better colored people would
ask that it be stopped, it would
be stopped. Then again, the
crowds that gang at the stations
and "Guffau" and Hurrah and
make the air wild with uncivil-
lied noise. ARE doing much to set
us back in the eyes of the better
class of people in this country.
And we may preach till "dooms-
day." but until we frown on such
conduct, we are all going to be
put in the same class by those
who write about us, and speak of
us in the public press. The Ne
gro has made rapid strides, and
the schools and colleges are doing
much to help us, but we must rid
ourselves of this burden by help
ing the authorities to keep in
check all forms of vice and i'm
morality"

Chooses Section of Street for
Road Demonstration.

D. Ward King exponent and
promoter of good roads and the
inventor Of the split-log drag ar
rived in Newport ON No. 4 Fri
day morning from Hope, his last
engagement. He comes to adj
dress the county good roads
gathering called to meet in this

c.. B. Coe, when a large crowd
from every part of the county is
expected.
Mr.. King was met at the de-
pot by Messrs c. E. Crook, G. A.
Hillhouse, w. A. Billingsley and
Judge c. 3. Coe and was taken
over the city to view the various
proposed sites for demonstra-
ton work. In order to secure a
stretch of road that could be
made wet. Mr.. King decided to
make his demonstration on Main
street, which will also be easily
accessible to the crowd after the
address at the court house.
In the morning, Jackson
County Good Roads Association
will be organized at the court
house to follow up and promote
the movement. In the after
noon, Mr.. King will speak at l
o'clock and then make his DEM
onstration of what the road drag
will do Immediately after the
close of his talk. The committee
in charge has urged the mer-
chants to close for two hours
and monster crowd should
greet MIR. King.
"The use of the drag" said
Mr.. King, "has spread during
the past IL years until there is
not a state in the United States
where split log drags no ware not
mending the roads. Widespread
use of this drag may be found in
Canada, the Philippines, Russia,
France, England and Australia,
and recently / had an inquiry
from Mandalay, Burmah, con-
corning the construction of the
Implement
While farming in Northwest
ern Missouri, II years ago, Mr..
King realized that the roads
about his farm were in need OF
repairs. He ingeniously con-
structed drag of split logs, con-
nected by 30-inch braces, with
the smooth faces of the logs fac
ing front, and by persistent work
improved the roads on his farm.
He next directed his attention to
the roads in the vicinity OF his
home, and it was while engaged
| in their improvement that the
attention of the state highway
engineers was attracted to the
simple homemade scraper.
LECTURES ON ROADS.
Mr.. King was persuaded to
leave his farm and tour the
state, instructing the farmers in
the construction and use OF the
drag and since that time has
been travelling continuously IN
the United States, lecturing on
| good roads and results which
may be obtained by the use OF
the split log drag. He has been
employed by railroad companies
counties. states and by the fed-
eral government, and in addition
has made many lectures lnoe-
pendently.
Drag After Rains.
All that is necessary with a
split log drag is to care for the
roads at the proper time. Mr.
King advises dragging immedl-
ately after rains, with the drag

RAILROADS REFUSE
 CONDUCTORS REQUEST
Wage Increase to Trainmen
 Would Burden Public.

Elisha Lee, chairman of the confer ence of managers of forty-three east ern railroads. formally declined the re- quest of the Order of Railway Con- ductors and the Brotherhood of Rail. road Trainmen for anN increase in wages. In his letter to representatives of the men MT. Lee points out that to grant the demands would mean the ad. dition of S17.000.0o0. or 20 per cent per annum to the sum now paid to approx imately 100000 employees. This. he adds, would be equivalent to placing lien on the railroads of $425. .000, 900 of 4 per cent securities. which would have preference over first mortgage bonds" This burden would. he insists. fall upon the public.
 He also refers to i'll advised legisla- ton and extra crew measures which have increased operating expenses of the roads.

MONTENEGRINS WILL
 EVACUATE SCUTARI
King Nicholas Decision Does
 Away With War Scare.

Sir Edward Grey, the British foreign minister, announced at the meeting of the ambassadors that Montenegro had internationally placed the question of the future of Scutari in the hands of the European powers.
 The decision reached by King Nich- olas at the very last moment had the effect of immediately relieving the great tension in European politics and caused unbounded satisfaction to diplo- mats and the general public
 It was generally hoped that this ac- ton of Montenegro would do away with all necessity for military incur sions into Albania such as Austria and Italy were contemplating against Es- sad Pasha, the former Turkish com mander of Scutari: Djavid Pasha, with his refugee Turkish troops, and other independent leaders on the plea of re- storing order The example of Monte negro, it is expected, will have salu- tary effect in causing other disturbing elements in the Balkan peninsula to bow to the will of Europe.
 King Nicholas decision is taken to mean that the evacuation of the city will be carried out immediately.
 A Cettinje dispatch to the Reuter- Telegraph company in London con firms previous announcements that the Montenegrin cabinet had resigned. A dispatch to the Times said that the resignation of the cabinet was because the counsels of those advocating the evacuation of Scutari had prevailed
