comes "GETS-IT' with a newly dis
covered formula-the corn cure on a
new principle and a simple plan that
never fails. This is why "GETS-IT''
has grown in three years to be the
biggest selling corn cure the world has
ever known.
There's no more need of fussing with
corns, no more digging or cutting
There's nothing to press down on the
corn, nothing TO inflame the flesh, to
pull the corn or cause pain. Put
two drops of "GETS-IT" on in two
seconds. That's all. For any corn,
callus, wart. or bunion.

FEAR FOR SAFETY OF
ROYAL MAIL STEAMER
Last Wireless Message Said She Was
Disabled and FloOded-12O
Are Aboard,

Halifax, N. c., Jan. 13.-The Royal
Mail Steamer Cobequid, with 100 per-
sons aboard, went aground on Briar
island, in the Bay Of Fundy as she
was battling agaisnt a terrific storm
just before dawn.
Wireless communication with the
stranded vessel ceased abruptly at
o'clock this morning. The operator
sent a last Pickering message that
the engine room was flooded. No
trace of her has been found and her
fate is in doubt. The gravest fears
for her safety are entertained. It is
believed she is lost.
The distress cry of the Cobequid.
which urged immediate aid was pick
ed up by the wireless station at Cape
Sable, across the bay, and was relay
ed to dozen vessels. They are now
struggling against an icy gale and
mountainous seas to reach the Cobe-
qud.

GETS CAPITOL
Special Judge for Supreme Court
Holds Invalid the Referendum Pc.
titions Against Capitol Location.

Muskogee, Okla, Jan. 13.-Judge
Stillwell H. Russell, of Ardmore. sit
tin as a special judge for the Su-
preme Court, today held invalid the
referendum petitions against the
State Capitol location and appropria-
ton law and the Gore election law.
The court held that the legislature
adjourned June 80 instead of July 5,
because the journals showed the leg
islative action. The referendum petit
tions were filed too late to come
within the legal ninety day period if
the legislature was adjourned June
80, as the court held.
Under the decision the State capitol
is permanently located at Oklahoma
City, and $75O,00O. made available i'm
mediately for construction OF a build

comes secretary of the state election
board, supplanting the present secre-
tary.
This ends a fight for the State

as governor, removed the capital from
Guthrie to Oklahoma City over night
carrying the state seal with him in al
automobile.

A FINE TRIBUTE
PAID JUDGE COFFIN
Body of Beloved Arkansas
Statesman Laid to Rest
in Beautiful Bellwood.
VETERANS ATTEND.
Many Of Out Town Men OF Prominence
Paid Last Tribute to H0n0red
Friend.

The funeral service yesterday over
the remains of the late Juuse Charles
F. Coffin, would have told, If moth
ing else had, that a great and good
man had passed away, and that those
living wished to honor the memory
of one who had been of such signal
service ard usefulness during a long
and honored career. Friends came
from various sections of the state;
it was mingling of those who &C.
cupy exalted positions and those
who claim no other honor than being
simply citizens, all coming with
hearts beating the same and minds
of the same thought.
The service was held at the resi-
dence of Dr.. q Orto, brornel -:n-law
of the deceased. The service was
conducted by DR.. L. Norris, pastor
of the First Presbyterian church,
who used as a short text befitting
the character of the deceased jurist
What doth the Lord require of
thee, but to do justly and to love
mercy, and to. walk with thy God"
which, DR.. Norris said Judge Coffin
seemed to have taken as his life's
motto. He referred to Judge Coffin
as an aristocrat in the highest sense
of the word-that while he realized
that he was the descendant of
lineage notable as of the finest of
the south. and was proud of it, he
showed the true aristocracy of his
nature by his gentleness for the
lowly, his consideration 1ur the
ignorant and his fine appreciation
of the good in human nature in what
ever walk of life he found it.
Dr.. Norris paid him beautiful
tribute as a friend and as soldier,
referring to him also as patriotic
citizen and a man who held with
dignity and honor, many distinguish
ed offices. Mention was also made
of his scholarship and his record as
an authority on literary subjects as
vel! as legal matters, and it was
known that he was particularly
interested in the careers of young
lawyers who came within the radius
of his influence. Many attorneys,
now prominent in the profession, he
said, owed their standing in large
masure to his kindly interest.
The last tribute DR.. Norris paid
him was in the light of personal
friend and words in this respect
moreso, If anything else, touched the
hearts of his auditors.
1t is seldom that there is such a
distinguished gathering as paid a
last tribute to one of Arkansas noted
soldier-statesmen It it certain that
the funeral cortege was one OF the
longest ever seen in this city, as the
remains were borne to Bellwoou
cemetery. the last resting place.
! Among those who came to attend
the funeral were Gen. J. r. Glib

 IN OPENING GAMES Clarke Has Led Team to Victory in Eight of Their
 Opening Bouts
Rx ERNEST J, LANIGAN

Baseball dope is a very peculiar thing. Looking over the major league openings for the last 10 years one finds that the Pirates, who in this time have won only one flag, have landed eight of their opening controversies, and so have the Braves, who generally have finished way down in the ruck. The Maps, also non- pennant winners, have done splendidly at the kickoff. capturing seven contests. The White Elephants. with a record of four pennants in 10 years, have broken away in front just six times, and the Giants, who have annexed five gonfalons, have had only an even split in their pry- off combats. The McGrawites, moreover. have been blanked on opening day on four occasions. Six times have the Car dinals had to be content with one tally Tn their first championship contests.
 Star pitchers do not always fare well when real hostilties commence. Cy Young was the twirler for the Boston Red Sox in four of their openers and he brack- eted only once. Joe Woods record on getaway day shows one victory, two de- feats and one tie. Nap Fucker has gone down to defeat three times when the championship lid was lifted. and only once has led the Superbas to a triumph in an opening game. It was when G. Napoleon was operating on the mound. in 1912, that the Giants set modern record for runs on the first day of the season by accommodating 1S

Team Composed of Tiger Regulars and Recruits to Open TwO-Game Series With BarOns Today
By ASA ROUNTREE, JR.

Headed by "Wahoo' Sam Crawford, the veteran Tiger outfelder, the second team of the Detroit Americans reached the city late last night from Montgom- cry, where they opposed the Billkens in a two-game series Saturday and Sun day, eager to take a whack at Moley' S coalition of stars.
 The party was composed of Sam Craw- ford, Del Gainer, High, Mckee, Gibson, Claude Williams. Hal Dubuc, Dauss. Reynolds, Shepherd, Schultz, Bauman. Veach, Fitzsimmons, Burke and Mori- arty.
 While the team has been dubbed the yannigan squad of the Detroit club, it is in reality partly a veteran and re- cruit outfit. Sam Crawford, Del Gainer, Moriarity. Hall, Dubuc, Veach and High are regulars, while Gibson and Williams former Volunteers. were carried by Jen- nings during the flag end of the 1913 season. Both were summoned upward by the Tiger leader late last season from Nashville.
 The other exSouthern leaguers on the Tiger roster this year-Harry Covaleskie snd Pug Cavet-are with Jennings and the regular squad.
 Both Gibson and Williams have per formed in such promising form this spring that Jennings has signified his intention of keeping them over for a more thor ough trial before deciding on their fate Reports have it that Gibson has cinched the third position on the Tiger catch ing staff, having beaten out Baker
 Crawford and his squad had very lit- tie success in Montgomery against the Blllikens. Bobby Gilks' hopefuls held their major league opponents to a 12- inning tie on Saturday and came back yesterday and defeated them to B.
 The Tiger players are fresh from the training camp at Gulfport and should ing time this afternoon and Tuesday.
