The thought in the mind OF Gov

Reverting to the state debt sugges-

OF the state was not wiped out for
fifteen years thereafter. and the floating

RUN ON CORNING BANK.
Mere Gossip Results in Closing Doors
Of First National

Corning May 16.-The First Nation
al Bank of Corning failed to open its
doors yesterday. following a run in
which about $50, 900 IN deposits was
withdra wn. The institution was closed
on order of the controller Of the cur
rency and a bank examiner is in
charge. R. r. Newcomb IS the presi-
dent and B. Newcomb Is the cashier.
The latter said Yesterday that all
claims will be paid.
The capital stock of the bank is
SLOT. 900 and surplus s2s.430. In the
Rand McNa1Iy banks directory for
1918, it's deposits are given as $4,000.
Resources not counting capital stock
were placed at $3.50. 900 in the last re-
port Most Of the stock was owned by
the Newconb family.
The presence of the bank examiner
here for several days is believed to
have given rise to the rumor that the
concern was not in good condition. and
the run was the result. Cashier New
comb was positive in :he statement
that the banks resources were ample.

Solon Crook Assassinated.


 One of the most deplorable deeds that has been committed in our city for a long time, was the shooting of Solon Crook down in cold blooded murder Tuesday night. While sitting in the family room of his own home, the assassin stood in the
 back yard or in the horse lot and with a shot gun poured a volley of buckshot into the back of the deceased's head. Solon Crook was 38 years of age and was shot down without a word of warning, and there is no clue to the perpetrator of this terrible deed. Following the death of Crook, the screams of the family will be something our citizens will not forget in many years. They were truly heart-rending. Blood hounds were ordered from Poplar Bluff and upon arrival they picked up the trail and fol- lowed it to Hoxie where the as- Isassin no doubt caught a train on one of the railroads. The funeral was held at his late home on East Third street at 2 p. m. Thursday conducted by Rever- ends T. A. Bowen and G. c. Cur rie, after which the Eagles took charge and he was buried with the honors of that lodge. Solon Crook had a world of friends and his sudden passing away cast a gloom over the entire county. The funeral possession was one of the largest ever witnessed in our city. The business houses all closed out of respect to the deceased. He leaves a devoted wife, two children, a sister and other relatives to mourn his un- timely death and with whom the Blade fully sympathizes. The floral offering was profuse and the fresh mound in the Lane cemetery was a bed of flowers when the silent cortege returned to the city.-Walnut Ridge Blade.

FEED OURSELVES AND OUR
 TEAMS.
By H. M. Cottrell, Agricultural Commissioner of Rock Island
 Railway.

This should be Arkansas plan for 1915. Each year Arkansas sends out practically all the mon- Icy which the cotton brings, for food stuff for her people and feed for her livestock.
 Winter oats sown immediate ly will be ready to cut next May. This crop is adapted to all the cotton districts of Ark ansas. It does not do well in the Northwestern part of the state. The farmer can feed them in the sheaf to his work teams and save the expense of threshing. An acre of oats sowed with good seed will fur nish this S1.50 per acre for oats for a work mule or horse on the farm, for sixty days. It will take 25 to 30 bushels of corn to feed an animal for the same length of time. Corn is now 50 cents a bushel, in some of the corn states, and the crop is gen. erally short throughout the U. s. It will probably cost the Arkansas farmer next summer SIPS a bushel, or more, so that each acre of oats which he raises to feed his team will save him from buying from $25 to $35 worth of corn. Seed for oats will cost $1.50 an acre and the labor to put them in. Will it not be better for the banker and merchants of the State to fur nisr this $1.50 per acre for oats this fall, than to furnish the $25 Ior $35 that he will have to pay for the corn if he does not SOW the oats?

 Use one bushel turf oats, or one and one half bushels Texas Red rust proof. Break the ground with turning blow. Disc

NO REASON FOR 1T.
When Newport Citizens Show A
 Way.

There can be no reason why any reader of this who suffers the tortures of an aching back, the annoyance of urinary disor- ders, the pains and dangers of kidney ills will fail to heed the words of a neighbor who has found relief. Read what a New port citizen says:
 Mrs. c. w. Gochenour, 616 Main street, Newport, says: 'Two of my family had symp- toms of kidney trouble, such as backache and dizzy spells. The kidney secretions were painful in passage and filled with sedi- ment. A cold always made the trouble worse. Doan's Kidney Pills strengthened the back and regulated the action of the kid neys."
 Price soc at all dealers. Don't simply ask for kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Gochenour had. Foster-Milburn Co.,, Props, Buff falo, N. Y.

Granville Jones, Humorist.

The mark of a great orator IS that he reminds you of no one else. This is true of Granville Jones. He is unique, original, always strong and delightfully."- interesting. The entrance of this lawyer, humorist and editor upon the Lyceum platform as a lecturer means that "A new Richmond is in the field" The man, the message and his me- thod are all out of the ordinary and wholly different from the us- ual lyceum lecture attraction.
 If Jones is like any man who has been in the limellght ot America, it is Abraham Lincoln tall and angular of body, al- ways clearly logical, and yet overflowing with the richest hu- mor. He is a typical son of the South and his ideas and utter ances are as fresh as the honey suckle and dogwood bloom of his native land. A magnetic, natural simplicity marks the manner and mental processes of the man. Like many of our great American statesmen, he has a slight strain of Indian blood in his veins, plainly trac- cable in his features.
 From his appearance and first word upon the platform he en- gages the watchful and sympa- thetic attention of his audience. He early overcomes it's mental barricade and quietly captures the citadel of it's intellectual de- lenses, and from that time on to the close of the lecture he is su- preme master of the occasion. With his fine philosophy, learned in the school of real life, and his absolutely original and natural humor, he carries his audience up to such heights of intense in- terest and to such sympathy with the man and his great mes sage that one is at a loss to know whether to allow tears or laugh ter to express his appreciation; a mingling of both is fitting and usual when Jones speaks. If, as the critics say, the finest litera- ture of the world is spoken lit- erature, then some of the most
