81 years old, a well-known far
mer, who resided IL miles west

Falk was in Beebe during the
greater part of the day and
seemed to those who talked with
him to be in the best spirits. He
lis survived by three sons, his
wife and several small daugh-
tiers. Funeral services were con-
Aucted this afternoon. An in
'vestigation of the death proba-
|hly will be made.

he did not receive any compen-
sation. Judge Youmans sus-

Mrs. Cassie Hardin of Swift

turned Sunday from Texas,
where she attended the trial of
her son, who was convicted of
bigamy on two counts of the in

PENDANT being faced by eight of
his wives, all of whom alleged
that he won them through SYM

The Methodist preacher
New York, who, in confere1zc

the travelling evangelists and re4

actuated by a feeling Of self de
tense, and they have a valid ar
gument on their side. The tenn
pestuous and spectacular reviv-
alist-sswoops down on commurss
ity, and by sRi iiif,; aioiicity, a.
tracts attention and cleans up
as much money as. a circus,
which he carries away, while the
home preacher, who must labor
among his people year in and
year out, is allowed only a n1ea-
ger living. These spasn1odic
awakenings of the religious spir-
it may result in great good BY
reaching many people who would
be otherwise untouched by the
appeal; but it must be admitted
that when they are financed af-
ter our modern methods, the
money goes into the hands Of
fortunate few, while the many
clergymen, who labor assiduous-
ly, are deprived of much that is
due them.-Memphis News

CONVICT FARM
CASE IN COURT
In Hearing Of Petition To Re-
woke COunty's Contract
With John I'll. Keel.

The question of the aggregation
of the county's contract with
John FL. Keel for the use of the
convicts the current year was
heard Monday before Judge G.
B. Coe. The matter came before
court through the petition of
Sheriff j. F. McCuistion and 9TH
ers asking that the contract be
revoked on the ground that the
contractor had not given the
prisoners the treatment, provis-
ions and quarters called for by
the convict farm lease and rules
governing same.
The court held it's sessions in
the circuit court room and dur
ing the morning session, three
members of the last grand jury,
ALT James, Henry Hunter and
John Pennington were placed on
the stand and testified as to con-
ditions found upon the farm at
the time of their inspection.
Stayton & Stayton represent
ed the petitioners and Phillips,
Hillhouse & Boyce the defend
ant contractor.
A large number of witnesses
had been subpoenaed and the
case may not be concluded be-
fore Tuesday.

Jackson County Teachers 4
ISOLATION.

The Teachers Association of
Jackson County convened in a
one days session in this city on
Saturday, Prof. Shaver presid-
ing. The meeting was held at
the high school auditorium, and
was attended by about forty
teachers from over the county.
Judge E. L. Boyce made the
welcoming address which was
a very pleasing one, this being
followed by regular program of
work for the day.
Talks on different phases of
school work interspersed by
some musical selections, made up
most of the days work. Proba-
bly, the most interesting feature
was the address by Superintend-
ent J. J. Doyne of the State
Normal at Conway, and which
was the closing number. This
was the last meeting of the
Association until next fall.
A large delegation of teach
ers from Jackson county will go
down to Little Rock the latter
part of next week to attend the
state association.

Intoxicants Barred In Navy.


Washington, April 5.-Abso-
lutte prohibition will prevail in
the United States navy after
July | next. Secretary Daniels
tonight made public a sweeping
order which not only will abol-
ish the traditiosM wine mess"
of the officers, but will bar all
alcoholic liquors from every
ship and shore station of the
navy. This order, constituting
one Of the most notable victories
ever won by prohibition forces,
was issued on the recommends
ton of Surgeon General Braist-
ed. 1t was brief and to the
point.
"The use or introduction for
drinking purposes of alcoholic
liquors on board any naval YES
sci or within any navy yard or
station is strictly prohibited and
commanding officers will be held
directly responsible for the en-
forcement of this order"

Boys Left Their Regards.

Batesville, April 4.--Several
days ago, Phil Medley, young
white man, convicted of selling
whiskey, and negro named
Will Harris, made their escape
from the county jail. Judging
from a letter left to Sheriff Fike,
they made their escape early in
the night, and by the time their
departure was discovered next
morning, had no doubt made
good the declaration sent
to the eriff-that they would
be outside the state by the time
he read the letter.
While the boys express appre-
citation Of their treatment, they
did not express regrets at the op-
portunity to make their depart
ure as his guests.
The letter left for the sheriff
is as follows:
CITY, March 27, 1914.
"Mr. Fike-We appreciate es-
your kindness shown us
while in your care, and while
we do not ask for better treat
ment, still guess we will change
climate. Now, we do not mind
telling you our route for we ex-
pect to be across a state line by
To Newport on the
red ball or hot shot. and then the
first train north or south, it
does not make any difference.
So goodbye for a long time if
you do not catch us, and here's
you all the luck and hap
piness in the world.

Road System
Will Make County
Capitalist Who Owned Big
Farms In Jackson County
Sorry He Sold Them.

The demand of the people of
Jackson County for an adequate
system of roads expressed in the
big majority secured at the polls
March 25, continues to grow.
The editor is just in receipt of a
letter from ]. S. Wilmans, a pro-
gressive land owner, who en-
closes the following letter from
former land owner, C. e. Ak
ers, now of Long Beach, Califor-
MIA, who only recently disposed
of his extensive holdings in this
county. Read what he says:
Il note the seeming interest
hat is being taken in the eff
fort to put good roads in your
county and that the newspaper
seems to be doing all it can to
get them. | certainly hope that
they will get them; it will do
more for your county than any
thing else could do. In fact, it
will be the making of the county
if you get them. If l had
thought you would ever get such
roads, / would certainly never
have sold out, as it would have
made the land I had worth
fortune. I was just three miles
from the railroad and it was al
most impossible to get to the
railroad.
II wish I could tell you all
how much you need those roads.
1t has been the making of Calf
ornia, and I have seen the re-
suits of good roads enough to
know what they mean to a coun-
ty. | would say to you: "Do
everythingyou can toget them"
What is Mr.. Akers' opinion
worth? He has been a very sue
cessful business man and inves-
tor. He is a widely travelled
man. He is known as conserva-
tive and careful, yet his words
could hardly be made stronger
than he writes in support of this
system of roads.
Mr.. Wilmans says of Mr..
"He formerly owned
several thousand acres Of timber
land in White and Black river
bottoms, also the ,Tupelo farm,
East of Tuckerman; he has
been very successful as a practi-
cal business man, having been in
business for a number Of years
at Decatur, Bloomington and
Canton, Illinois. He has had an
extensive experience and has
been over quite bit of this
country and Europe. | consider
his opinion worth repeating, for
! think him one of the soundest
business men / know.
''Mr. Akers went over a good
portion of Eastern Arkansas be-
fore making his investments in
Jackson county which he consid-
ers the banner county of Ark
ansas."

Edgar Munger Dead.

Edgar Munger aged about 60
years, died at the county hospit-
al at Jacksonport Sunday night
from a several months illness.
The body was brought down
from Jacksonport Monday morn
ing and will be buried at Walnut
Grove cemetery, awaiting a mes
sage from a brother in Califor-
MIA.
The deceased was in the en-
ploy of McLain-Holden as book
keeper for a number of years,
and was a very efficient work
man.

The decision of the supreme
court settles for a number of
years at least the license ques-
ton in Newport. The store
rooms held by saloons in this
city, whose doors have been
closed since January l, when the
Going law went into effect, will
now be given up and doubtless
occupied by other lines of bust
ness.
While the saloon interests of
the state will doubtless carry
the case to the supreme court
of the United States, decision
from that court would hardly be
reached in less than two years.
Hence it is almost certain that
Newport will be DIR y for the
next two years and perhaps al
ways.
The continual agitation OF the
license question has always been
a drawback to the growth of
Newport because it has kept the
city divided against itself, its
growth and prosperity and if
the issue is settled for all time
to come, it would be the best for
Newport and Jackson county.
