Fortunate is the one who can eat anything without suffering the tor lures of dyspepsia, but as few are so fortunate. care should be taken in the matter of diet Eating slowly, mastl- eating the food thoroughly and taking a short walk after the heavy meal of the day will do much towards assisting digestion.

U. s. SUPREME COURT
 IGNORES GOING LAW
ASSOCIATE JUSTICE REFUSES TO GRANT APPEAL OF AR
 GENTA SALOONISTS.

. Washington, April 30.-Because the negroes of Arkansas have not raised the question of being denied a consti- tutional right, the United States Su- preme Court has declined to pass up on the consttutionality of the Going liquor license law. Associate Justice Willis Vandeventer, before whom At torneys Morris NJ. Cohn and Joseph w. House, Jr., of Little Rock made their application to be granted an ap- peal from the ruling of the Arkansas Supreme Court, also ruled that the de- cree of the Arkansas court was not final because the case was reversed and remanded to the circuit court for trial. Messrs. Cohn and House rep resent the firm of Topf &Wright of Argenta.
 The Little Rock attorneys who rep resented the saloon men in the appli- cation have returned home.
 Under the law an appeal could he granted by justice of the supreme court sitting in chambers, but it is un- derstood that after conference last ing for several hours with Associate Justice Vandeventer, during which the validity of the Going act was at tackled by the two attorneys, that the jurist refused to grant an appeal to test the constitutionality of that law in the application made in the case of I. D. McClue vs. Topf X Wright.

THINKS TRAINS WILL NOT BE ABANDONED
REPORTED CURTAILMFNT
OF SERVICE OF CENTRAL DI- VISION OF IRON MOUNTAIN
 NOT BELIEVED HERE.

Although he has had no official in- formation as to the intention of the officials, Station Agent J. w. James Of the Iron Mountain thinks it is very unlikely that passenger trains Mo- 1O3 and 104 will be discontinued on this portion of the central division, as was reported in the Fort Smith Ilmes-Record yesterday MT. James said it is probably true that passen- ger service will be curtailed to some extent on the western end of the di vision, but he does not believe that any of the trains now running be- tween Little Rock and Fort Smith will be abandoned. The new schedule however, will likely make some changes in the arrival of trains here It IS unotticially reported that train No. lO3, now due here at 6:20 D. m. will likely be run about an hour earlier and the west-bound accommodation train about 30 minutes later. The change in the time card is expected to become effective either next Sunday or the Sunday following.
 Referring to the proposed changes i the Times-Record says:
 within the next few days the Iron Mountain railroad will inaugurate a new time card for the central divis- ion, Little Rock to Coffeyville, which will, it is stated, mean the discontinu- ance of two passenger trains and changing the time of practically every passenger train of that division. The new card will follow the general lines | of retrenchment of the Iron Mountain that has been pronounced on that road since January 1, 1914 The new time card will become effective either Sunday of week from Sunday ac- cording to the best advices.
 Superintendent Wildman of Van Buren, of the central division, is ex- pected home this week from St. Louis, where he has been in conference with other officials of the road relative to 1 the new card. The trains that are to be discontinued are Nos. lO3 and lO4 running between Little Rock and Cotfeyville. No. 103 leaves this city at noon for Little Rock and No. 1O4 arrives here at 3:45 from Little | Rock
 Tt is stated by local officials of the Iron Mountain that the train service Oi tHeSe lWO lIdlllS VIII Oflly De QlS- continued from Wagoner, Okla, to Coffeyville and will in no way effect Fort Smith. However there are per sistent rumors that the trains will be discontinued from the entire division and the time of trains Nos. 1l9 and l20 changed so that it will equalize the time between the train service be- tween Coffeyville and Little Rock.
 Trains No. 103 and 104 have been in use more than 20 years. When the Iron Mountain first started oper- ations in this section they were known as 53 and 54. When the mum Der of trains was increased their numbers were changed to lO4 and 1O3 respectively"

 This delegation was followed by the out-of town delegation, of which Con- way had the largest number, they, with the Hendrix band, coming to Lit tie Rock yesterday morning in spe- cial car for the purpose of entering the parade. Following this delegation were those from the various churches in the city, the representatives of each church being led by chairman who carried class banner.
 On arriving at the First Methodist church the Hendrix band took it's stand on the corner and played a number of pieces while the procession was disbanding When the Second Regiment band arrived the place was turned over to them and they con- tinued the concert until the last of the procession had reached the corner.
 At 8 o'clock a meeting for men was held at the First M. E. church, south, with H. E. Lufkin, general secretary of the Arkansas Sunday school Asso- citation, presiding The music at the meeting was in charge of Prof. E. O.
