EFFICIENCY IN PUBLIC SERVICE
THIS IS TO BE THE WATCH WORD OF PRESIDENT WILSON
 IN MAKING APPOINTMENTS

Trenton, N. J.. Jan. l-Efficiency in public service and the merit sys- tenn, rather than partisan politics will be the basis upon which President Elect Wilson will make his appoint ments, he indicated today.
 Gov. Wilson had occasion to de- clare himself in this connection when a delegation of 90 men representing various labor interests made an ear nest plea for appointments of a Demo erat to fill the state commissioner ship Of labor, now held by Repub- lican.
 John T. Cosgrove, a Democrat and labor leader, was urged for the post tion to succeed Col Lewis T Bryant, incumbent who was appointed by a Republican governor.
 The president-elect told the dele gatiou he recognized sne force of their argument that labor should be represented in the government by one who knew it's interests, but he saw no reason to displace Col Bryant, who had performed his duties faith fully and efficiently
 The colloquy took place in the big ante-room, just outside of the gover- nor's office. One Mr. Botterill re- marked that MT. Cosgrove's appoint ment might not be exactly acceptable to the manufacturers and employees
 "Oh, class opposition doesn't affect me one way or another,' interrupted the governor.
 Later in the day another delegation of labor men appeared in MT Bryant's behalf. Incidentally Mir. Wilson set forth in the day that he recognized the right of labor organizations to be represented in the government and indicated that in the creation of q national department of labor, he might follow that course
 Among the governors callers to- day was Representative-Eiec Beaks of Michigan Mir. Beaks outlined con ditions in Michigan, stating the Demo cratic organization there had not ex- erted itself to it's fullest powers to obtain the election of a Democratic United States senator

naure of a convention, as it lasts from seven to ten days bringing thousands of visitors to our eIty, filling all the hotels and boarding houses to their full capacity, and putting into circu- lation a great amount of money at a time when r is most needed.
 The greatest accomplishment, per haps of the last State Fair was the fine impressions made upon the new ly elected governor and the members of the general assembly, with refer ence to an appropriation for this splendid institution to make 1t all that the world implies, "A Great State Institution"
 The splendid cooperation given the State Fair by the Farmers Co-opera- tlve Demonstration Department, per haps was the most potent factor in making the State Fair the great sue cess it was, and 1 would heartily recommend this arrangement so aus piciously begun be continued, and l am sure will be if it is within the power of Mr. C. " Watson, state agent, who has recommended it and now has the matter up with the auth critics in Washington city.
 The Boys Corn Club, Cotton Club and Girls Canning Club school that was conducted during the State Fair was indeed an inspiration to all who had the pleasure of visiting same and witnessed the splendid results of their work during the year, placed on exhibition.
 If we can continue interesting the boys and girls, it will in time prove the real bulwark of the State Faier, as they are enthusiastic. wide-awake and intensely interested in the work they have in hand and should be en- couraged in every way possible, as they are the ones we must depend upon for Arkansas future develop ment.
 would recommend that the sur plus money on hand be applied as a partial payment on the notes that are in the various banks and that are now due, as this will go further and have greater tendency to maintain ani increase the confidence of the pub lie than any one thing that l could suggest.
 With the same unselfish devotion that has been given this institution by the citizens of Hot Springs, coupled with an appropriation from the state of Arkansas. commensurate with the great work we have in hand, l pre- dict that the Arkansas State Fair and Exposition will become a great institution, out-ranRing that of some of our sister states who have had es- tablished exposition for the last 25 years.

BATTERED AND
 DISABLED VESSELS
SEVERITY AND LONG DURATION OF ATLANTIC GALES CAUSE
 UNPARALLELED EXPERIENCE

Queenstown, Jan. 21.-Battered and disabled vessels continue to arrive at this port after unparalleled eXperi- ences, owing to the severity and long duration of the Atlantic gales.
 Captain McConey or the British bark Earshall, from Swansea, De cember F, for St Johns, F.. which has returned to Queenstown, relates thrilling story of the hurricane, which nearly sent his ship to the bot ton several times in Christmas week. The cabins were flooded, the sails blown to ribbons and the Earshall was only saved from laundering by keeping her head to the sea by the use of motor engine with which the ship was fitted.
 On January II, when 2OO miles west of Queenstown, another terrific storm demolished everything. Huge waves pounded the ship mercilessly and flooded every compartment. There were several feet Of water m the hold and the captain then tried to run for the nearest port.
 Cant. Foxworthy of the British steamer Malvern Range from Boston and Baltimore for Copenhagen, told A similar story. The Malvern Range came into Queenstown under Jury rudder She narrowly escaped foun- dering with all hands in the hurri- cane. which lasted from January lz to t6. During that time the captain never left the bridge, day or night and was obliged to dodge the seas to avoid being engulfed.

ASKS MEANING OF LANGUAGE OF REGENT NOTE OF POWERS
 TO THE PORTE.
ANXIOUS ABOUT THE CAPITOL
Accuse Powers of Broken Faith" in Guaranteeing Integrity Of Terri tory-Dont Understand Be
 nevolent Support"

London, Jan 21-Turkey, before presenting reply to the joint note of the powers, wishes to have explained certain passages in the note. Instruc- tions to this effect have been sent to the Turkish ambassadors accredited to the powers Rechad Pasha, head of the Turkish peace plenipotentiar- ies, and Tewfik Pasha, ambassador to Great Britain, have been enjoined to seek elucidation, as they are in Lon- don where the note was prepared.
 Explanations are to be requested on the following points:
 The joint note says that in case of the prolongation of the war, tine fate of Constantinople might be put in question. Does the note mean that allies might be allowed to attack, conquer and remain in Constantinople or does 1t mean that the powers them- selves might control the government in the Ottoman capital?
 The note speaks of "the moral, ma terial and benevolent support of the powers" What must Turkey under stand by that? How Is this support to be extended? and what form; to what extent; what guarantee is there of fulfillment of this promise?
 Similarly what assurances do the powers offer for the settlement of the question of the Aegean islands in such manner as to exclude further menaces 10 the security Of Turkeyg
 It is stated that the Turkish dele- gates in endeavoring to obtain satis- factory answers to these questions have made reference to what they describe as "Europes broken faith in failing to live up to the promise made four months ago that the status quo would not be changed, whatever the result of the war.
 A distinguished diplomatist. losing patience, has recommended them not to pretend to be more naive than they are, since the Turks know we'll that the statement of the European DOW CTS contemplated only a case in which the ottoman arms were victor ious. as in 1897 when Turkey defeat- ed Greece, on which occasion Europe would not permit a change in the status quo.

sold out his farm in Montana on ac count of having rheumatism, and the extreme cold of that section caused him much suffering.
 lie came to Hot Springs with his Vile, and took quarters on Ravine street. He had something over the S5,O0O that he lost in the swindle. but that loss left him with very little.
 Standing in front of leading hotel on Central avenue one day in Decem. Der, he was approached by a strang- CT. They talked few minutes. It was one of the cold days in Decem- Der, and they discussed the weather. Then they talked of weather else where, and strangely enough the visi- tor was from Montana, where Mack was from.
 They talked awhile, and parted. ~The next day when Mack was coming down the street he was accosted by the same Montana stranger, and they talked some more. They went LID in Happy Hollow to talk, and there the stranger, Emerson by name that he gave, told his story.
 Emerson told the victim that he was Emerson of the Bromo-Seltzer fame, and that he had sold out his interests for S175.000, but he made a mistake in this, for he should have gotten a million. Emerson also con iided to the stranger, however, that it didn't make much difference, since he had other funds, and that all he was looking for was a good place to settle in a tropical country.
 Emerson then unveiled lot of in. formation to Mir Mack that he claim ed to have gathered about southern Texas, which he said was a grand country, and where property could be bought cheap now Mack was inter- ested, and finally confded to Emer- son, his new and wealthy friend, that he had $3000, which he had received from his sale in Montana. and that he was looking for a place where land was cheap.
 They had a dinner together Christ mas, Mack having Emerson at his apartments and the day after Christmas they were to start to Texas to look after the cheap land they could buy.
 They left the city together, but in buying the tickets Emerson explained that if they went over 60 Little Rock they could buy tourists tickets and save some money. and that as Mack was not so well off, he would go on to Little Rock with him aid help him make flhat saving
 They reached Little Rock, and there they met the wealthy race track plunger from Detroit, and were ush- cred into the fake poo room, and the play came off Mack was supposed 10 have won a considerable sum, but the house could not pay at the pres 'ent, having to telegraph for funds and later they got Mack off to Texas and threw hlm in the discard. It was there he discovered that he had been the victim of confidence men, and that he decided to come on back here ana see what he could do towards the prosecution of inc men who fleec- ed him. He did not find any of them, as yet, and then took the route of trying to recover some of the money on the certificates of deposit. placing the case with Wood and Wood, in whose hands it now rests.
