 TO 60 TO WAR

Adjt. Gen. Lloyd England of the Arkansas National Quar- es' timates that the State could fur nish 4,000 or more men for vol unteer service in the event they should be called. This estimate of the volunteer of the state was also made by the War Depart ment at Washington.
 The enlisted strength of the Arkansas National Guard is 1,- 500 men, apportioned among the twenty-four companies in the or ganization that are not subject to duty that removes them f r o m the State. They are. however, looked upon as a reserve force which could be depended upon.
 Each company in the Guard has twenty-four men. The maxium company strength is 108 men. The twenty-four companies could have a strength of 5000 men. It is estimated that Arkansas could easily furnish third regi- ment. raising the total of men to 4,OOO.

LECLESS MAN IS
 DRIVING COATS TO
 FRISCO EXPOSITION

Camden. April 20.-A unique sight was man with both legs cut off at the hips. who passed through: :here Saturday driving two white goats. He said his name was Baltimore Dave" and that he was driving from his home in Baltimore to the San Francisco Exposition. His wag- on was covered with 6 canvas top. and provided with a bunk in which Dave sleeps. He doesn't take much length in bed by req son Of the absence of legs. He does his town cooking W h. l e travelling. carrying utensils for the purpose. He sells novelties of various kinds, including photo- graphs of himself and his queer outfit. He made considerable money here. and claims that he is saving up money while on the trip in order to start a show in San Francisco. His goats drive without lines, and obey his com- mands perfectly. Dave lost his legs in a dynamite explosion sev- eral years ago.

A FAMOUS OLD FLAG.
The Star spsngIed Banner Of Fort Nc
Henry In 1914.

The Star SpsngIed Banner Of Fort Nc
Henry In 1914.
Hanging from the walls Of the Ma.
tional museum in Washington is n of
the most famous flags in the world
the star spangled banner that aoated
over Fort McHenry during the British
attack in September, 1914. The flag
measures no less than 26 by SO feet.
At the time of the battle Fort Nc
Henry. just outside the city Of Baltf-
more. was in command Of Major George
Armistead. The garrison flag that few
from it's ramparts was made by a Mrs.
Mary Pinkersgill. assisted by her
daughter. Mrs. Caroline 4. Purdy.
In the battle one of the stars was
shot away by u British shell. After the
war the banner became the property Of
Major Armistead and was left by him
to his daughter. Mrs. Appleton. 1t was
from the son Of that lady. Mr.. Eben
Appleton. that the museum received it
two years ago. The arrangement is
that the flag shall remain permanently
in the custody Of the museum and
must not be permitted to leave the
building to be exhibited anywhere else.
Time has somewhat married the beauty
Of the banner. but no American can
look at the fading and worn fabric
without q thrill. That is the flag that
gave birth to the national anthem Of
his country. Youths Companion.

The Isle Of Man is in the Irish chan
mel. about equidistant from England.
Scotland and Ireland and is famed
for its lovely scenery. excellent climate
and the quaint old world favor Of It's
places and people.
Home rule has been enjoyed by the
Manxmen for many years. Although
there are fewer than 10000 Manxmen,
they have their own parliament and
courts. The house of keys and the
house Of lords hold annual sessions in
Douglas, the capital. and the laws they
pass are read aloud every year from
Tynwald hill. The statutes are pro-
claimed in the Manx tongue. a Ian
guage as distinct from English as ltal-
ian Or German.
The Isle Of Man was long u bone OF
contention among the kings of North
cumberland. Scotland. Norway and Eng
land. The government. as it is in
operation today in Hall Gaines island,
was established by Orry. a Scandina-
Wan adventurer who made himself
king Of the island. He divided his
kingdom into six sheadings. and this
division. with four municipal districts,
still serves in the election of members
of the house of keys. The bishopric
of the Isle Of Man is declared to have
been founded by st. Patrick. who
stopped off and established the see
while on his way to ireland New
York World.

A peculiar play occurred when Ban

knocked the ball into the bleachers.
Manager Schlaf1y patted him on the
back as he turned third, and the UNI
pire called the runner out for the
coacher's interference, following the
rule which caused Kid Gleason trou-

game, when Stoyall's Casey Feds
were whipped. The team was play
ing behind pitching that needed con-
siderable and efficient defensive help,
and gave everything that could be
expected and a whole lot that was
phenomenal.
Ad Brennan failed to puzzle the
enemy as touted, their hits being
punched. He quit in the ninth to
make room for a pinch hitter who
failed to produce, and Mike Ptender-
CAST, a new one, went to the hill.
Then the miracle stuff was brought
out by the Chifeds. Wickland, Zeider
and Farrell came to the rescue of
Prendergast with hair-raising catches
that temporarily STAYED off the defeat.
Prendergast caused his own undo
ing in the 18th by committing wild
pitch with the bases full and one out.
After the game Tinker, was not a
bit cast down. His men had shown
fighting spirit, and he believes he has
uncovered a good pitcher in Prender-
CAST. The youngster will be given
plenty of chance to gain actual. ex--

should develop into a consistent win

s The Thinks batted a dozen safeties
and were handed ten passes. More
than three runs should have been
cleaned from such combination, but
the swats were not luckily placed.
AS long as the men hit, it is only
question of time until they begin
punching the wallops where they will
do thesmost good.

THAT OAK PARK u" DEAL

Sam insult, receiver of the Oak
Park 81" road, came out yesterday
with a statement that he is not
"defying" the public utilities commits
sion or the people of Oak Park or the
authorities of the city of Chicago.
The village attorney of Oak Park,
Frederick Pringle, got permission in
federal court to sue insult and the
81 road for not raising the tracks.
Pringle is going to try to grab of the
$4,000 forfeiture bond of the road
and get the tracks elevated
The insult crowd promised to raise
the tracks by May; 1, 1913: insult
says he knews it ought to be done,
but the poverty-struck %" roads
haven't got the money. If they get
money enough one Of these days they
may build the line, says Insult. For
that reason, he is taking the decision
of the public utilities commission to
the courts. In other words, he is
ibucking the commission but not
''defying" it.

OUT THE PIKE RESIDENTS
SUFFER FROM CREEK FILTH
WHEELING CREEK IN HORRIBLE
CONDITION BECAUSE OF NOT
BEING FLUSHED.
Filth Has Gathered and Water ls
Staonsnt-Steneh Coming From
Water May Cause illness.

Complaints are being registered by
the residents of the out-the-pike dis
trict and especially those residing in
Fulton and East Wheeling because OF
the odors that arise from the stag.
nant water in Wheeling creek. Ow-
ing TO the fact that not enough rain
has fallen within the past several
weeks TO furnish enough water TO
clear out the filth that has been &C
cumulating in the creek all season,
the water has become polluted and
an awful stencil has resulted. This
is especially noticeable in the imme-
date vicinity OF the creek and is
annoying to those riding on the trac-
ton cars.
The water, II water IL NAV be
called, more resembles ink than &
does water and the residents of that
section are beginning to fear an cpl
demic OF typhoid fever or something
worse
With the nearness or the reservoir
and its location on the top OF the
hill II would be an easy matter TO
furnish sufficient water to wash out
the NTH. This matter should be
looked into as this is not the first
year that such conditions have arisen
and not the first time this season.
With the location OF the reservoir so
near. IL would be an easy matter TO
lay pipe to the creek banks and
furnish enough water TO wash out
the NTH once in while. II Is
thought that unless rain falls within
a few days. in sufficient quantity to
furnish the needed flushing water
sickness will result.
