Secretary W. w. Waters returned yesterday from st. Louis where he had been for the greater part of the week in the interest of the 1914 Ar kansas State Fair Association, and on which visit he secured contracts with some of the leading St Louis manu- lecturers and dealers for exhibit space in the next state fair.
 The visit proved one tAing con clusively to Secretary aWters, and that is that if the merchants and 10. cal dealers will use their influence with the manufacturers and iobbers of the large ines they handle, there will be more manufacturing and com mercial exhibits at this fair than have ever been shown in Arkansas before
 "Our agricultural and our horti cusvely to Secretary Waters, and tcrs. are nicely handled through the state government demonstrators and through our friends in the county fair associations of the state. Our stock exhibits are looked after, and will be good ones this year But our mer- chants could do much towards the success of this fair if they would i'm mediately open correspondence with their manufacturers and jobbers and sho wthem where space a this fair won dbe mutually beneficial to botA the retailer and the dealer"
 Secretary Waters believes that with the proper cooperation the comin2 fair will surpass all former ones in every Ii1e, and that it will not be in- terfered with to any extent whatever by the fact that there is a war now on.

 < number of authorities are cited to show that the interested parties to a suit must make themselves known, and must he represented by counsel and that if such is good law, every petitioner must give some sort of au- thority to the attorneys to represent them.

For the purpose of adding a new ward 10 the city, or extending the limits of the Fourth ward, a mass meeting Of citizens will be held Tues day night al the Asbury Methodist churcl of that section for the purpose of getting an expression from all in. tcr2sted in this subject
 Alderman Rigsbee stated yesterday that the residents Of his ward had been making an effort for better fro protection through the establishment of a fire department on Park avenue, and that this seemed difficult to do because so much of the property to be protected lies outside the corporate limits of the city.
 He believes that if the residents of that section will add new ward to the city, or urge the extension of tho boundaries of the Fourth ward, this vii be more easy to secure.
 There las been a sentiment for some time for more wards instead of increasing the boundaries of the pres ent wards. The wards being the political divisions of the city, the vote in the Sixth, and Second, are already too large for the convenience Of the city. There is a demand for the eX- tension of the city boundary south of the city along Central and the for nation of new voting precinct there.

In Poland Bring Teut0nic Losses to
Tremendous Total of Thirty Three
Thousand Men Twenty-Eight Ma

(By Associated Press.)

LEMBERG, Nov. 2S.-Authentic adj
vices reaching here late today tell of
tremendous losses sustained by the
Germans and Austrians during the
fghing around LODI. Fifteen miles
northeast of that point the most san
culinary battle of the war has just re-
suited in a complete victory for the
Russians Seventeen thousand Ger
mans were killed during the battle
which ragged there for four days, and
sixteen thousand Austrians are also
reported to have fallen. The Russian
losses have been heavy will not be-
gin to approach the enormous total of
thirty-three thousand.
Heavy artillery played prominent
part in the fighting around LODI, and
tremendous death toll resulted. The
absence of covered trenches and mod
ern defenses contributed largely to the
fatalities. No estimate of the wounded
is contained in the information reach
| ing here, but will probably run into
many thousands Twenty-eight ma
chimes were captured by the Russians
after deadly execution had been done
with them in the Muscovite ranks.
The Austrians are completely de-
moralized and constitute a majority of
the prisoners taken, while the Ger
man troops have maintained a SEM
blance of order, and are retreating
under perfection of strong rear
guard.

PENNILESS AND
SORE DISTRESSED
FAMILY ASSISTED
ALL FOOTSORE AND HUNGRY AT.
TER LONG TRAMP FROM
DOWN IN FLORIDA

There arrived in Americas yester-
day evening the most distressed fam
lily of six people that has ever come
here asking assistance, and when their
sad story was told at the city hall
food was given the>party, consisting of
father, mother and four little child
rem of tender years, all of whom had
walked hundreds of miles from lum-
Der camp far down in Florida in an
attempt to get back to their former
home in Newman, Ga Their condition
was, indeed, pitiable.
The party had walked from Florida
to near Albany, where tickets to
Americas were given them. A purse
was made up here and transportation
as far as Macon provided for the six
unfortunates.
They had gone from Newman, the
man stated, to Florida, where he had
been promised work in a sawmill, but
the plant closed down upon his ar
rival and the family of six were left
stranded among strangers. Failing to
get work, the party started to walk
back to Newman, 400 or 500 miles, the
little children trudging along the rail-
way track with their parents. Weeks
were thus spent upon the road.
In crossing trestle the poor wo-
man fell and sustained injuries that
prevented further walking upon her
part. The husband then sold the few
bedclothes they carried, and with the
proceeds, bought ticket to Albany,
from whence they came to Americas.
The tired party, with a good supper
and tickets to Macon, continued their
journey home last night.

Americas merchants wore an ex-
preston of ce-ulean indigo today, re-
sulting from lack of business. A steady
rain which began falling in the early
morning hours kept shoppers away
from the firing line, and in the many
attractive stores the salespeople
rested and wondered If there would
be a rift in the clouds. But 1t came
not, and today goes upon the scrolls
of time as blank in business. The
rain is beneficial to young oats and

in Sumter county this fall.
