work of rescue. knowing that a crash
OF such force must have been fatal
TO the other vessel.
Pumps Worked steadily.
The Nantucket's bows had been
crushed and she began to ship water
heavily. Within an hour her condi-
tion was so dangerous that the mas
ter began to fear for the safety OF
those on board his own vessel. The
pumps were kept steadily in action
and wireless calls were directed to
any other ships in the neighbOrhoOd
to stand by in case Of an emergency.
Steadily and heroically worked the
sailors on the Nantucket. Driving
their lifeboats under the hull Of the
helpless Monroe, they risked their
lives to save the passengers and crew
Of the sinking boat.
Not less heroic was the work of the
seamen of the Monroe. The Monroe s
crew was hampered by the fright of
the passengers. and many women
tainted and had to be carried into the
boats.
The Monroe was settling fast and
the passengers had no time to dress
nor look to their baggage. But their
excitement and fear ad risen to such
a pitch that they gave no thought to
such trivals. Escape was the com
pelling idea.

ARK KANSAS AND THE WORLDS
FAIR

Arkansas cannot afford to miss be-
ing represented at the Panama Expo
sition to be held next year in San
Francisco.
The last Legislature failed to make
any appropriation for an Arkansas
building at the fair, and while some
have criticised the lawmakers for over
looking this very important matter it
may be just as well that no appro-
priation was made.
Governor George W. Hays has con-
ceived the plan of raising the nee
essary funds for an Arkansas build
ing and exhibit by statewide popu-
lar subscription, and there is no ques-
ton but that he will succeed in Sc
curing all the money necessary to
properly finance the exhibit.
The plan adopted by Governor Hays
is better than an appropriation by
the Legislature, as it gives all the peo-
pie of all the State an opportunity
to personally aid movement that will
advertise the revenues of Arkansas to
thousands of people from every sec
ton of the civilized world.
The governors plan opens the
door to every loyal citizen of the
State to do his share in promoting an
enterprise that cannot fail to pay big
dividends to the whole State.
Sufficient assurances have already
been received from a few Of the
wealthy men of the State to guarantee
the financing of the project(, but it
should not be financed in this manner.
All the people should take hand in
it, Let the movement be endorsed
by every citizen who has at heart
the upbuilding and development of the
great State of Arkansas and the re-
suit will be that Arkansas will have
a building at the big exposition that
will in truth and in fact be building
erected by the people of the State.
The indications are that the move
ment will be given an impetus that
will result in the speedy raising of all
the money necessary to guarantee

But-have you a Granary? You
will get big crop this year, so make
the most of it. A Granary is indis-
pensable. Don't overlook such things
as this.
Don't get in bad like Alexander.
Alexander was a big colored person of
boastful and lordly ways. A small
coon from neighboring city visited
Alexander. They partook freely of
gin the while Alexander entertained
his small yellow guest with accounts
of his own Importance, his fighting
ability and so forth.
At length the gin worked it's way
and Alexander said, "Ah can lick any
niger in town." with a baleful glare
at his small guest. No reply forth
coming, he repeated, "Ah can certain
ly lick any niger in this town."
At this the little coon hit Alexan-
der and knocked him senseless. When
Alexander opened his bruised and bat
tered orbs, the little negro observed,
"Yo can lick any niger in dis town,
can yo?"
"Ah still maintains what ali said,"
replied Alexander, "nigger, 20 don't
live here, 20 lives in Nashville"
So with US all. 1t is the unexpected
outside thing that affects our destiny.
Do not overlook Granary. Your
crop this year will be tremendous and
the price may be low. Put the grain
in Granary, season it and wait for
a good price.
Ask Mr.. H. S. Johnson at the Rog-
ers Lumber Company to show you
the Plan Book Of Granaries, or its Ar
chitect at Minot will prepare any plan
you want.

DEFEATED CANDIDATE
FOR SHERIFF ARRESTED BY 3
BROTHER AT BISMARCK,

Bismarck, N. D., July 1O.-Deputy
Sheriff C. E. Barnes was arrested
this morning by his brother, Sheriff
Frank Barnes, on charge of assault
with intent to kill with a deadly wea-
pom. The charge was preferred by
C. J. Martinson, a former policeman
of this city.
G. E. Barnes was a candidate for
sheriff to succeed his brother, in the
primary campaign, and after election
attacked Martinson on the streets be-
cause it had been reported the latter
had blackmailed him. A change of
venue was taken when the case came
up in justice court this morning.
