HARTLEY ESTATE
 SUES FOR Sl0,000
AGAINST W. ). COLE. JR.
ADMINISTRATOR OF MAN KILL, ED IN ACCIDENT FILES DAM
 AGE SUIT.

Damages in the sum of SlOOOO are asked in suit filed in the Faulkner circuit court today by L. E. Johnson, administrator of the estate of Woot Hartley, deceased, against w. D. Cole, Jr., head of the firm of Cole & Con- pany, grocers of this city. The suit was brought by Charles Jacobson of Little Rock and P. H. Prince of this city, as attorneys for the plaintiff.
 MT. Hartley was killed in runa- way accident on East Oak street in this city on November II. He had started with his wife and two-months- old baby to visit in the country east of Conway and the mule attached to his buggy became unruly, running the vehicle between fence and a tele- phone post and throwing the entire family out. MT Hartleys head struck on a stepping stone, fracturing the base of his skull and causing his death in about one hour. When the accident occurred a party of three automobiles was passing, and the com- plaint alleges that it was the car of the defepdant, which was in the lead that frightened MT. Hartley's mule It is also alleged by the plaintiff that Hartley warned the defendant to stor the machine, but that the automobile continued to run distance of 4C yards after the defendant saw that the mule was frightened The plain. tiff asks $7,500 damages for the widow and child of Mir. Hartley and S2,500 for the benefit of the estate.
 At the time of the accident Mir Cole stated that the mule showed no signs of becoming frightened as he passed it, but when he had gone some distance and another car behind him had come up he looked back and saw the animal had become unmanage- able He said he immediately stopped his car and went back to assist in stopping the mule. Coroner J. A. Pence decided the accident was an un- avoidable one and held no inquest over the body of Mr. Hartley.

HIRES MEN OF MATURE YEARS
ChIcagoan Decidedly of Opinion That
Worker Is at His Best i'm the Neigh

A Chicago man, a leader in the com
mercial life of that city, is quoted as
saying: Among the men | hire nine
out Of ten are better workers at forty
five years of age than are the men OF
twenty-five or thirty" This man firmly
believes that the man of forty-ilve
or Whereabouts is at the prime of life
physically and mentally. He also
holds that men of mature years are
more reliable and less apt to become
restless after year or two in posi-
ton and to seek new fields. The aver
age young man, he says, is seeking
soft snap" and is not the sort OF
employee who will stick by his en-
ployer through thick and thin until
his services become highly valuable
and, in many cases, indispensable. We
often hear young men complain OF
their inability to get settled That is
largely because they do not settle, DO
not seek to adjust themselves to work
and make the most of their Opportu-
nifty. Opportunity seldom knocks at
our doors. We must knock at the door

ECZEMA ON BACK AND CHEST

Pierson, N. Dakota.-"The eczema
started on my scalp. 1t finally went
OF to the back of my neck, then on to
my back, arms and chest. 1t broke
out in pimples first and then seemed
to run together in some places, max
ing a sore about the size of a dime.
At times the itching and burning were
so intense that 1t seemed unbearable.
The more I scratched it the worse 1t
became, and there would be slight
discharge from it, especially on my
scalp, so as to make my hair matted
and sticky close to the scalp. The
hair was dry, lifeless and thin. My
hair was falling so terribly that / had
begun to despair of ever finding re-
lief. My clothing irritated the erup-
ton on my back. The affected parts

the future and give a shadowy basis
to the humor of a separatist move
ment. The cause is economic and re-
lates to the question of transportation.
The Panama canal may put the
costly Tehuantepec railway practically
out of business and render almost
va1ueleSs the expensive port works at
Salina Cruz, on the Pacific, and Coat
zacoalcos. or Port Mexico, on the At
lantic. 1t is q possibility only and not
anything more, but it IL disquieting.
That the canal will naturally reduce
the s-Tehuantepec traffic is a GER
tainty.
Tehuantepec was a rival of Panama
almost from the time of Cortez. In
the middle of the last century, when
Americans built the railway across
the isthmus of Panama, another group
of Americans obtained concessions
from the Mexican government for g
line across the Isthmus of Tehuante-
pee. Important explorations were
made for the American navy depart
ment under the direction of Admiral
Shufeldt, and for a time the question
was whether canal or railway was
the more feasible. Ultimately the con-
cession was annulled.
Along in the eighties some rails
were laid, both from the Atlantic and
the Pacific side, and a few years later
the ends were united. When Presi-
dent Diaz had pushed through various
railway enterprises in central and
northern Mexico he turned to Tehuan-
tepec and put the government back
of that project A new contract was
made with the firm of Sir Weetman
Pearson, the present Lord Cowdrey,
who had successfully carried through
the drainage project for the city of
Mexico. Under the terms of the Pear
son contract a working capital of
81 600, 900 was provided. and the gov
eminent went into partnership with
the Pearson firm on conditions which
would make it the sole owner of the
line and the terminals in fifty-One
years.
A large element in the total cost,
which is said to have been approx
mately $35,000,000, was for the har-
Dor works at Salina Cruz and Coatza-
coalcos. 1t was realized that without
good harbor facilities interoceanic
traffic could not be obtained
Salina Cruz is hardly more than an
open roadstead, with the northeast

pee railway, 100 miles long-carried,

disc, brought to their termini by yes

is double the amount thus transported

merce, moved westward, $23,700,000
worth via Panama and $62, 100000 via
Tehuantepec, while the remainder
moved eastward, $7,300,0O0 across the
Panama line and $37,100,000 worth
over the more northerly trans-isthmian
line.
Only a few American ports partici-
pate in this trans-isthmian traffic. OF
the westward movement, $4,000, 900
worth of merchandise was shipped
from Boston. The east-bound traffic
included $21 100000 worth from San
Francisco, $18,200,O00 from Hawaii,
$2,100,000 worth from ports in the
state of Washington, $1,S00,00O from
ports In southern California, and
about 100000 worth from the state of
Oregon.
New York's shipments by way of
this vessel-rail-vessel route went
chiefly to San Francisco, 37A million
dollars worth having been consigned
to our Pacific coast metropolis, COM
pared with 15A million dollars worth
to other California ports, sA million

Two Versions of Scripture.

'Bathhouse John" and Raymond Rob-
ms evidently gathered the material for
their public speeches from the same
source. Each had different interpre-
tation, however, of the following we'll
known episode:
Mr.. Robins, speaking before the
Sunday Night club, referred to the
Pharisees past and present. By way
of illustration, he cited the story of the
Magdalene, quoting the phrase: He
who is without sin among you"
On the same day Alderman Coughlin
assured his constituents of the First
ward that "these stiff-necked reform
ers went butting in two thousand years
ago the same as they do now"
"You remember Mary Madeline" he
said, land what she done. They was
about to revile her when Christ said:
Let the Teller what's never done moth
in sling the first rock. Chicago In

serious engineering problems, includ'
ing refuge harbor and an inner har-
boz, had to be solved. The difficulties
were overcome and Salina Cruz was
made hospitable to traffic.
When the road was completed its
total length was a little under two
hundred miles. The birds flight from
ocean to ocean across Tehuantepec is
about one hundred and twenty-five
miles.
British interests here, as elsewhere
in Mexico, are vitality concerned in the
outcome. 1t is not presumed that
Lord Cowdrey and his associates have
transferred any of the obligations.
They also secured valuable oil conces-
sions on the Isthmus of Tehuantepec
and are understood to have large hold
ings of lands. The connection of Sir
Lionel Garden, the British minister,
with a land company in lower Mexico
was explained in the news dispatches
from the City of Mexico some time
ago.
At one time some American money
was invested in the railway line
known as the Pan-American, which
branches off from the Tehuantepec
railway at San Geronimo and runs
down to the border of Guatemala. The
money was in the bonds which we're
turned over to the American con
tractors as the different sections were
completed. These bonds were guaran-
teed by the Mexican government.
Later the government took over the
railway and made it part of the Mexi-
can system.
Two American capitalists who had
held official positions in Washington
and in Mexico were the intermedi-
aries. They were supposed to have
made a good deal of money by the
transaction.
In view of later developments this
may be doubted. They got control of
the international bridge across the
Suchiate river to Guatemala. But
since President Cabrera of Guate-
mala was in no hurry to join up the
Guatemalan lines with the bridge. the
expected profits from the tolls on
traffic across the river did not mate.
