vigorous protest to President Gomez
against the passing Of the amnesty

measure in defiance of Bryan. subse-

Cuban affairs that the Gomez admin

millions of dollars will be put in the
pockets of his friends by means of con-

For months an effort has been made
by Minister Beaupre of Cuba to learn
the facts with regard to franchise

island and paralleling the Cuban Cen

matter before the state department
and asked this government to look

Mexico and the charges of conspiracy

that he intended to probe to the very
bottom all the causes of the revolt,
all the actions of American officials
and all the reports elating to Ameri-

Principal among the early charges
against Ambassador Wilson were the
assertions that he had openly houted
the Madero government fostered the
Diaz uprising and finally had APPROX

recognition be given the provisional
president with undue and positively
indecent haste
Ambassador Wilson denies the charge
and asserts he could not avoid recop

only constituted authority.

States is virtually responsible.
For a time there was a grim pros

United States in Cuba to prevent the
release of the prisoners. The phrase

AMATEURS. { By George Fitch.)

1 kDy AiC'k SC AbIh.l
 An amateur is a man who does something for the love of it in- stead of the money he can make.
 As soon as man accepts mOn- ey for playing game of any sort, or plays with a man who has ac- ccpted money or tips his hat to the female relatives of man who has played a game for money, he becomes a professional, and is regarded with horror by all pure amateurs.
 An amateur must not take any thing but gold and silver and copper mugs, jugs, loving cups and other bric-a-brac as prizes. When an amateur becomes a champion, he has to hire wood shed to keep his trophies in and he spends his life running races or playing games for the benefit of the promoters of manly sport who sell the sporting goods and pocket the gate receipts.
 In America a man cannot be an amateur football player if he has ever accepted money for play ing baseball OF hOpscotch or mumblepeg. In England the rules are still more strict. No man can be an amateur in Eng land who has ever made money at anything. If an Englishman should so dcmean himself as lO earn his living. instead of mak ing someone else do it for him, he would not be an amateur and would cnntaminatr an athletic meeting with his presence.
 Some people think America ought to be as strict as England and should not allow vulgar wage earners to compete with the sort of amateurs who drive to the games in their own automobiles. However. this should be done by dividing athletics into three clasSeS--prOfessiomaIS, amateurs and snobs.
 Nowadays in America there is so much business uf all kinds that a man can make a good and honest living playing billiards, soccer. baseball. automobile po- To, ten pins. golf or whist. But while he is doing it some man whose father stole railroad, and who can. therefore. afford to play i all these games for the love of them. will look down upon tim with righteous horror.
 We do not need anateuriSm for the development of athletics. but we should have more of it in politics. When more men play politics for he love of stalesman- ship instead of for the money here is in it, this country will be much better off. We need fewer amateur foot racers and more amatpur aldernren.'

USE OF CALOMEL
 PRACTICALLY STOPPED
Dangerous Drug Giving Way for Saf.
 CT, More Reliable Remedy.

Hundreds of people in this vicinity alone have stopped the use of danger ous calomel whe ntheir liver is acting slowly and take Dodson's Liver Tone instead.
 Dodson's Liver Tone is always safe and has none of the bad after effects which so often follow the use of cal omel. It is a pleasant-tasting vege- table liquid that starts the liver gen. tly and surely, and relieves constipa- tion and biliousness and causes no re- striction of habit or diet.
 Many preparations have sprung up that initiate the claims made for bod sons Liver Tone, but remember Dod- sons Liver Tone is the tried and test ed remedy that has proven such a good medicine and is so satisfactory to every user-is the reason that these limitations are on the market.
 Dodson's Liver Tone cannot hurt anyone and if it fails to do all that is claimed for it Hesterly Drug Store, who sell it, will give your money back with a smile. Advt.

METHODIST MINISTER
 LOSES RESIDENCE

Little Rock, Sept. 23.-Rev. Forney Hutchinson, presiding elder of the Methodist Church, South, was rendered homeless by a $l5,000 fire on Pulask k i Heights Monday afternoon. The fire strated in the attic of the home of pr. c. A. Dodson, an osteopath, and probably caught from sparks as a negro had fire in the yard burning trash. The Dodson home was destroyed with practically all contents. The furniture was removed from the Hutchinson residence when it was seen both houses would be dettroyed Rev. Hutchinson was out of the city at the time, but neighbors gave his family shel- ter until another residence can be secured.

GOVERNOR HAS.
 DIPLOMATIC TASK

Little Rock, Sept. 23.-Gov Hays has before him a task that will call for the exercise Of all his tact and deplomacy. He has been invited, among the gover- hors of sixteen other Southern states, to appoint "a pretty and attractive young lady" to place the flag of her state in the con- vention standard during the singing of the first verse of the state song on the occasion of the meeting of the Southern Com mercial Congress at Mobile Oct. 2S. It will also be necessary to decide on the state song, which brings up the question very for cibly, Have we a state song?' It will not be difficult to find the pretty and attractive girl " plenty of them, but there is no recognized state song, and while the state has a flag design, and some small flags have been made by designers, the state govern ment has no flag for use on such occasions as this. The question issbeiug asked, will not some pa triotic society have flag made to present to the state?
