mercy of the president of the United States.
 Upon receiving the findings of the court. President James Madison di- rected that General Hull should re- turn to his home in Massachusetts and three continue until he should receive orders otherwise Later he remitted the sentence.
 Public opinion has long since re- versed this sentence and the best his torians disapprOve of it. Benjamin J. Tossing. in his history, calls the tidal disgraceful and it's sentence un- just, and says that the court was evil dently constituted in order to offer Hull as a sacrifice to save the gov ernment from disgrace and contempt.
 Cooley, in his American Common wealths," says: ''The judgment of the court-martial upon General Hull has never, as judgment, had great weight with the people It was or dered by an administration whose blunders in management had been at least equally blameable with his own conduct, and it was presided oyer by an officer whose position in respect to some of the questions involved was such as to suggest a suspicion that he could not be wholly unbiased"

A Woman's Charm

Beautiful hair. fluffy, lustrous, abundant and free from dandruff. is one of woman's greatest charms it's her main delight-yet many who would be most attractive but for their streaked, thin and lifeless hair, think there is no remedy and that pretty hair is a gift of nature. Beautiful hair is matter of care and atten- tion. Parisian Sage, when rubbed into the scalp and applied to the hair, will work wonders-you will be surprised and delighted with the first application-not only will the hair appear abundant, soft, fluffy radiant with life, but really doubly beautiful
 Parisian Sage supplies hair and scalp needs. It surely removes dand- ruff with all dirt and excessive oil It is an inexpensive, scientific tonic and contains nothing to injure the hair or scalp. It can be secured from Owl Drug Co, or at any drug or toilet Sage the best, most pleasant and in counter.
 Delighted users pronounce Parisian vigorating hair tonic made.

THE REGULATED SALOON.

Golfers of June 20, gives us good insight into the regulated and the government controlled saloon.
 Sisseto, South Dakota, after being dry six year, voted wet about a yea ago. Afte.' the election it was de- cided to have one saloon run by the city.
 After trying this perfect and dig nifed method of poisoning people for one year, the town recently went dry, two to one.
 Here are a few of the facts the sensible portion of the citizens began 10 take notice of: The police re- cords during eight months of the Wet regime showed Y arrests, A of them for drunkenness and IT for bootlegging. The fines collected for these offenses amounted to $524.75 against ST col lected during two years under the dry administration.
 Business men said that employees who had been sober and industrious during the six dry years reverted to their old habits: collections be- came more difficult and cash busi- ness fell off. Seventy five to eighty thousand dollars was spent for booze in the community (almost s55 for ev- cry man, woman and child) and oth- CT businesses were the losers
 The superintendent of Good Will Mission at the Indian agency eight miles away, reported that the sale of booze at Sisseton had a demoral- izing effect. Indians who had neve. touched liquor were found intoxicat- ed (both men and womenJ: dishon- esty on the part of Indians was due to wniskey more than to any one other factor
 While the concessionaire claimed that giving the city and road funt all the saloon profits would eliminat, any motive for pushing" the sale o liquor it is claimed that the bar.

GRANDMA NEVER LET
 HER HAIR GET GRAY
Kept Her Locks Dark, Thick, Glossy,
 With Sage Tea and Sulphur

When you darken your hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it's done so naturally, so evenly. Preparing this mixture, though. at home is mussy and trou- blesome For 50 cents you can buy at any drug store the ready-to-use tonic called "Wyeth's Sage and Sul- phur Hair Remedy" You just dam pen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair taking one small strand at a time. By morning all gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark ened, glossy and luxuriant. You will also discover dandruff is gone and hair has stopped falling.
 Gray, faded hair though no dis grace. is a sign of old age, aid as we all desire a youthful and attrac- tive appearance, get busy at once with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur and look years younger r-Advertisement.

SOLID TRAIN 0F ELKS

Luxurious Train Will Make Run From
 Los Angeles

Arizona Elks will have an oppor tunity to attend the grand lodge of Elks at Denver, July F to IS, in style and comfort. The Santa F'e which has been designated by the grand lodge as the official road, that is the one with which connections from all parts of the country will be made as soon as possible will run a palatial train from Los Angeles to Denver. It will be identical with the famous Shriner's special, consisting of steel baggage car, a composite diner, an observation sleeper. a seven compartment drawing room Pullman, two ten section Pull mans with one dra wing room and two compartments and one twelve section Pullman with one drawing room and enc compartment. The,c will be a p.ano in the observations car and bar in ;he composite car. The train viii be solid steel.
 The Elks' special will leave Los An geles at 10 a. m. July 10 and will ar rive at the Grand Canyon at s a. m. July II. It will leave the Grand Can yon at nine o'clock that night and will arrive at Denver at 9:30 July 13. Con- nection may be made from Phoenix with the Elks' special so as to join it at the Grand Canyon by leaving here on the night of July 10. Or by leaving here on the morning of the 11th the special may be caught at Williams.
 Several Elks of this city and vicin- ity have made reservations and if it appears that a sufficient number of passengers may be secured a special car will be put on here which will be attached to the special, after picking up Arizona delegates to the convention from the northern towns The ar engagement is especially desirable as that would give this state a better showing.

 It is suggested by The Republican that either side. desiring to avail it. self of this offer of space. name committee through which all matter relating to the issue shall be trans mitted. In such case, all communica- tions received at this office from other sources will be rejected. We believe that this arrangement is ne- cessary to keep the discussion within reasonable lines.

 The cooks prepared a huge pot-pie larger and better and more delicious than was once upon time set be- fore a king. The result has already been mentioned.

ALLIES BREAK
 GERMAN FRONT
 IN ". FLANDERS
(ContiEued from Page 1)

two desperate attacks to break the front of the allies forces, but without success.
 The progress made by the allies in this region shows that the resumption of the offensive was well timed, for the Germans seem to have been taken off their feet by the fury of the allies onslaught.
 In the fighting along the Ypres- Menin road, the allies gained more than 100 yards at one point, after re- polling the counter attacks of the Germans, and captured besides num- Der of ammunition cases.
 To the south of Ypres the British today made a notable advance in front of Armentierres, where the Germans were pushed back by the English, who left their trenches and charged across the open, attacking with rifles and quick-fring guns.
 About Arras the French made re- markable gains yesterday, according to the statement issued by the war office this afternoon. Near Tracy-le-Val, on the Aisne and in the Champagne district the big /, guns exchanged shots all day, the ad- vantage remaining with the French gunners. Two heavy batteries were , utterly destroyed by the French guns in the region of Verdun.

CITY NOW OWNS
 BIG FIRE TRUCK
Formal Transfer Yesterday of Big Fire Apparatus Fol
 lows Several Tests.

The big new re-fighting apparatus purchased by the city of Pine Bluff at a cost of 5000 from the American Elmira, N. Y., was formally turned over to the city yesterday, and is now part and parcel of the local fire de partment.
 Fire Chief Breiner announced las night that it is not his intention tc put the big machine into actual serv- ice at once, as he wants first to have two Or three men of the departmen' to understand how 10 operate it vel so that there may be no danger o accidents. Captain George Alforo has already been well instructed l. the operation of the car, and Repre- sentative George w. Meade of the manufacturing company is now in structing other members of the de partment.
 Final action in the matter of th< transfer of the big machine to the city by the builders will be taken al the meeting of the city council Mon day night next, and MT. Meade expects he will have completed his work her by that time, so that he can leavf Tuesday morning for his home iy Battle Creek, Mich, to spend Christ mas with members of his family.
 The cold and otherwise unfavorablt weather the past week has prevented the carrying out of several demon strations by MT. Meade for the mem bers of the council and of the boart of public works, but with favorablt weather today and Monday, the city fathers will be given an opportunitj to see for themselves exactly wha the machine can do, when necessity arises. Almost the entire day yes terday was devoted by Chief Brelnel and MT. Meade to locating Pine Bluff street in which the machine might be stalled, but the chief salf last night nothing could be found tha would hold the machine while th' engines were going.

 How Pressure Is EquaiiZed.
 Mr. Bair explained that the reducer or regulator, equalizes the pressure and distribution of gas in all sections of the city, the company having eight of these regulators in use in Pine Bluff.
 "Withcut these regulators he said "one part of the city might have a high pressure, while another part would be almost without any pressure at all. The damage to the regulator in the Lakeside section will affect the pressure in that part of the city until we can get the new parts lnstalled it having been necessary to put the regulator out of commission
 Mir, Bair stated that the boys i'll the Lakeside section have been trying for some time past to set fire to gas in the regulator pit, but heretofore have not succeeded, because there was no escaping gas.
 "They found gas all right yesterday however" he said. 'There is nothing that has been left undone by the company, which might induce the boys and everybody else to leave these reg ulators alone, and I really am sur, prised that the accident yesterday die not result in far greater damage"
