H0RT|CULTURISTS
 ARE IN SESSION
IS 32ND ANNUAL MEET
DISPLAY VALUED AT SI5O.OOO AND A RECORD-BREAKING
 ATTENDANCE.

Fort Smith, Jan. 22.-With a display
 valued at $150.000 and record.
 breaking attendance, the Arkansas
 Horticultural Society opened it's thir-
 ty-second annual convention yesterday
 afternoon. The address of welcome was delivered by Col. J. Frank Waves
 and Senator P. A. Rodgers of Cray
 cite, in responding, gave an outline of
 the states fruit production in the last few years. He valued the horticul- tural production of the state in 1909 at $20000 ,000.
 Secretary Ernest Walker of Fay IetteVi)le, m his annual report, pleaded for a larger membership and a lbetal financial assistance from the state. He outlined a plan to ask the legislature for an appropriation for the horticul- tural department or the state legisla- ture to make horticultural survey of the state and take the place of board of horticulture, which the legislature refused to create two years ago. He also urged horticultural exhibit at the Panama exposition, and stated this matter would be placed before Cover nor Robinson and the legislature.
 President Bert Johnson urged bet ter organization to handle the fruit crops, declaring that the growers lost heavily last year, when they had rec crops, but had no meth ods in disposing of their production. Dr. J. H. Reynolds, acting president of the State University, addressed the convention on the needs of the institu- tion. His address, in short, was some what quaint, in that it exposed condi- tions at the university that had never been heard of before. Dr. Reynolds devoted his remarks to the states ut ter neglect for it's chief educational institution and classed the university as being extremely poorly supplied with proper equipment.

 MENTAL A|LMENT

Little Rock, Jan. 22.-One of the most important bills introduced in the house Tuesday afternoon bears the names of Hudspeth, Parker, Hartsill, Grant and Ragon, and provides for the regulation of the practice of sugges- tive therapeutics in the treatment of mental ailments.

MR. CHAS. B. HANFORD.

The American stage has never had a more loyal and consistent producer of the Shakespearean plays than MT 1 Charles B. Hanford Many actors make excursions into the classics for a period of time, but this eminent ac- tor and producer has. in this regard, a most enyiable record.
 His first professional appearance was made with William Stafford as Salonio in "The Merchant of Venice" :" | Two seasons with Thomas w. Keene, in which he played at different times all the responsible parts in that tra- gedian's extensive repertoire.
 While playing Ageon in the famous production of "The Comedy of Err TOTS with Robson & Crane, he at tracted the attention of Lawrence Barrett, who engaged him for the sup porting company of Edwin Booth, with whom he played four successive seasons. In the famous Booth Barrett 1 Company, he made one of his great est successes as Mare Antony" to Booths "Brutus" and Barrett's Gas sius,' and divided honors with these l two great stars. He was a leading actor with Booth and Modjeska and then supported Julia Marlowe for two seasons, appearing as Ingomar, Nal volio, Mercutio, Jacques and other parts.
 With Mrs. John Drew he was intro duced in Old English Comedy Then he began his first starring tour as Marc Antony in Julius Caesar" and Ingomar. Later he appeared as a joint star with Louis James and Kathryn Kdder.
 He was especially engaged for the part of "Appius" in Maeterlnck's Mary Magdalene' at the New Thea ter, New York, with Olga Nethersoe in the title role.
 Such an enviable record and breadth of experience cannot but help the ex- cellence of his performance of Iago and Othello, Mercutio, Gratiano and Mare Antony, in which he will be seen in this great caste of Shakespearean stars.
 MT. Hanford, Mir. R. D. MacLean, Miss Odette Tyler and Miss Marie Drofnah will appear here at the Grand on Thursday, January 23.

NO LIQUOR SHIPMENTS BY L. e N.
FROM WET INTO DRY TERRITORY

Admission, May 2o.-(Special) )-Ac.
cording to Admission attorneys the fill
ing just made by Milton IL. Smith,
president of the Louisville and Nash
vile railroad, and sent out to all Off
ctals of that system, information OF
which has just been given out here,
exceeds the Webb anti-shippig bill in
its drastic provisions. as it makes no
distinction between liquor used for le-
gal and illegal purposes.
AS Mr.. Smiths decision is given out
here, that road will hereafter abso-
1utely refuse to accept liquor shipments
from wet territory into dry territory,
regardless of the quantity of the ship
ments desired and it is considered that
this will operate as a death toll to the
blind tiger business, as other roads, it
is averred, will follow suit by the
adoption of a similar rule
An Admission attorney, who was in
position to know the facts, said that
in taking this step, the railroad has
placed itself in position to be sued for
failure to accept shipments offered for
transportation as commodities offered
common carrier. 1t will mean a loss
of thousands of dollars to the road, it is
averred, and the action is considered

Yacht Club Accepts The
Challenge OF Tom Tipton

London, May 2o.-The New York
Yacht club today cabled to the Royal
Ulster Yacht club definitely accepting
Sir Thomas Liptons challenge for the
Americas cup.
The races will take place in Sep
tember, 1914, under the New York
Yacht clubs present rules as to meas
urement. time allowance and racing
rules.
Sir Thomas considers that the con-
ditions of acceptance of his challenge
by the New York Yacht club are a
great victory for him. He says they
will enable him to build a good sea-
worthy boat.
1t is still a question whether Sir
Thomas will be allowed to tow his
yacht across the Atlantic.
Asked whether he thought the de-
tenders would meet him with a bigger
boat than the challenger, Sir Thomas
replied:
THAT does not give me the least
worry. They have always treated me
in the most generous and sportsman
like spirit"
The New York Yacht clubs accept
ance of the challenge says:
'The races are to be sailed as you
suggested, under our present rules of
measurement, time allowance and rae

ing rules, it being understood that the
rule requiring yacht to rate at the
highest limit of her class in certain
cases shall not apply to this match. "
The challenger will be rs feet on
the water line and built under the
present New York Yacht club rules. ;,
SAID Designer Nicholson. This size
was really fixed upon by Sir Thomas
Upton because in his challenge he sug-
gested racing under the same measure
ment rule as in the last contest and
thought that with the extreme type
produced under that rule, having an
enormous sail area, rs footer was
large enough.
In accepting the challenge the rep
resentatives of the New York Yacht
club has held Sir Thomas to the rs
footer named in his first challenge. |
consider this decision highly satisfac-
tory, because it means a departure
from races between extremely freak
ish yachts and | consider it means
more frequent racing for the America S
cup
Asked whether the British boat would
be designed to carry the largest sail
area possible, Mr.. Nicholson replied
The sail area will be moderate COM
pared with her size, because under the
rules governing the race excessive sail
area will he heavily penalized."
Designer Nicholson said he hoped to
launch the challenger in March, 1911
Sir Thomas Upton has not selected
the skipper.
