TO ELECT
CHA\CERY JUDGE
Tenth Chancery District Will
Hold Special Elections To
Elect Bourland's Sue
GeSSGr.
Special 10 Independent.

Special TO Independent.
Little Rock. July 29.-Tn spite
Of the protest Of some Of the
residents Of the Tenth Chancery
District, there will be a special
election held in that district to
select q successor to Judge J.
Virgil Bourland, who recently
resigned and became United
States District Attorney for
Western Arkansas. Judge Will
liam A. Falconer was chosen by
Governor Futrell to succeed
him.
At the time the vacancy in
the district occurred" stated
Governor Futrell Tuesday, at
was made known to me by sew
eral citizens Of the district that
they did not want an election
called for Chancellor on the
23d of July for the reason that
II the committee for the dis
trlct would meet and designate
a time when the election should
be, that I would recognize the
same if it became necessary for
me to act. The committee met
and decided that the election
should be called for the 9th
day Of September.
THE law requires the election
to be held within 80 days after
the issuance of the proclamation
calling the election. 1t there
fore follows that the election if
held on the 9th day of Septem-
Der, will have to be called on the
9th day of August.
I will not be acting governor
at that time, but | have con-
ferred with Governor-elect
Hays and he assures me that
this plan will be carried out
and that the election will be call
ed on the 9th of September, so
the several democratic central
committees composing the 10th
Chancery District may govern
themselves accordingly and
make due preparations for the
election which is to be held on
the 9th of September"
Those who oppose the holding
Of an election in September
wanted the present appointee
to serve until the regular prim-
ar in March 1914, instead of
two months hence, for the con-
test is to fill out the uneXpired
term of Judge Bourland, and
several who are contemplating
entering the race, desired more
time. Judge Bourland was on
ly recently reelected to a term Of
six years. -

The Value OF a Silo.

That the silo is a valuable fix.
ture to have o. the farm is fac,
we'll known to every one that has
investigated the proposition. Tha,
the cattle appreciate the succulent
feed the silo provides in winter
and that it is great thing fol
them is proved by the following
incident.
"A farmer living near Eunice,
Indiana, had three silos. One year,
according to bis statement, he
made about half corn crop and
was short of material for eilage.
On his farm was a low marshy
place that, because of it's situation,
could not be drained without ex-
pense out Of proportion to it's va
lue, and which every year grew a
prolific crop of tall, tender succu-
lent weeds. The cattle, however,
would not eat the weed.
This short crop year he decided
to fill one of his silos with the
weed. The drouth hich bad cut
his crop short had also dried the
marsh SO that he was able to get
into it with his mower, so the
weeds were cut, cut into silage and
ono of the silos filled with it. To-
ward the latter part of the winter,
when the corn silage had given
out, he offered the weeds to the
cattle. At first they refused it.
then began to nibbls At it. and
soon were eating it with evident
relish. 1t made a very satisfscto-
ry feed.
The incident merely shows the
value of green feed in the winter
and that the silo will even make
valuable feed out of al otherwise
worthless weed.-Farm Il Ranch.

philadelphia Dispatch to New YORK

An instrument known as the bron-

Medico-Chirurigical Hospital to aid IL
the examination of the lungs and to
remove foreign substance therefrom.
The bronchoscope is U-shaped. One
of the legs is hollow and is surmount
ed by a small mirror and an electr .
light. To remove a foreign body from
the lungs, the hollow leg is inserted in
the mouth and permitted to pass down
the throat until it reaches the vocal
chords. With the aid of the mirror
and light on the outer end an examin-
alton of the lungs is then made AMI

PLACED ON TRIAL

MATTHEWS.

LAWRENCEBURG, Tenn, Oct. 4.
Henry Neiman was placed on trial
here this morning, charged with the
murder of his brother Matthews Mel

of some of the most prominent men
of the county, was formed by noon.

scene of the murder was about three
miles from his home on the public

eighteen miles from here.
The evidence shows that he was
shot with muzzle olading shotgun,
like the one Henry was out hunting
with that day.
