WEDNESDAY NIGHT
 AT THE TABERNACLE

A large crowd filled the taber- nacle last night, and the reports for the afternoon meetings show that Wednesday was the great est day of the meeting. Lock- ett Adair came early and con- ducted a testimony meeting. From the great number that tes- tified and the character of their testimonies it is indicated that the people are going into the meeting in dead earnest and are expecting great revival.
 The preachers theme for the evening was Launching Out" He showed that the big fish are in the deep. The Devine com mand is for man to launch out. The man that is satisfied with his present and past is not worth killing. 1 do not believe in a blue john or skim milk religion You can have that kind if you want it but your Uncle is going to swim in cream up to his eyes, If the people do not come to us we must take the gospel to them. I've must be makers of opportu- nity for God. In a few brief words he told how of the time when his call came to launch out, | in the face of Encouragement and opposition he put his faith in God and launched out. He told of how he worked for two years for the city of Dallas and preached at night. He never considered any thing too little to do for the Lord, he believed in filling the place so full it will run over. The men who have done things in the kingdom of God are those who have taken God at his word and launched out.
 In few glowing words he cited as examples men who have launched out. At the close he made an appeal and five men res bonded. Tabernacle Reporter.

TENNESSEE COMPANY

Little Rock, Oct. 1.-The American Prepay Fan Company of Tennessee with w. Morton Garden of Malvern as state agent has filed copy of it's charter with the Secretary of State Hod- ges and entered the state for business. This concern has $5,- 900 invested in the state. Only a short time ago this concern, or one with the same officers and the same name, complied with the state laws for the en- trance of foreign corporations, showing it to be a resident of a western state. The double entry IS not worrying Secretary Hodg- es, and he will welcome an en- trance from a half dozen other state, for each time the company illes such papers it must pay a lee into the state treasury.

TO DETERMINE RIGHT
 TO SELL CRUSHED STONE
Case of State of Arkansas vs Highway Commission Filed by Attorney General to
 be Heard Saturday

Little Rock, Oct. 1.-The suit filed in Pulaski Circuit Court by the State of Arkansas vs The State Highway Commission, to determine the right of the High way Commission to sell crushed stone from the state plant, will be heard next Saturday before Judge Guy Fulk.
 This suit was brought by At torney General w. L. Moose, at the instigation of commercial rock crushing companies, which suffered a loss of business with the state plant making low price rto the road districts of the state. It is claimed by them that the state has no right to operate a plant for commercial purposes. The Highway Commission claim that it can sell it's surplus rock and thus prevent the shutting down of the leased quarry near Little Rock, at which convicts are worked, and for the use of which convicts the Commission CT msut pay whether or not they are worked.

TEXAS LEAGUE HAS DE-
 SIGNS ON LITTLE ROCK
Arkansas Wants Southern Lea que Ball and Will Hardly Fall for Texas Fans.
 Spend Day in l.. R.

Again the Texas League has designs on Little Rock, but Lit tie Rock wants Southern League ball and will hardly fall for the flirtatious offerings of the Long, horn state. During the past week President Sand, of the Houston team. and his manager, spent a day or so in Little Rock spending much of the time in consultation with M. J. Finn, former Memphis, Nashville, Mo- bile and Little Rock manager, and others interested in base ball. Their dream was either Little Rock in the Texas league or Houston in the Southern.
 The visitors figured where Houston should be in the South. ern, and went over the change ill mileage in that circuit if the Texas city should secure the Montgomery franchise. They also figured on pulling Little Rock into the Texas circuit, ;u.c m'.de the mileage look right in- tcresting, but then with people so set on Southern league ball, and Little Rock with it's eyes on Montgomery too, the visitors secured little encouragement.
 Unless Little Rock secures a franchise in the Southern for 1915, M. J. Finn will probably re- turn to scouting for tue New York Giants, for he is said to have turned down an offer on a franchise in the New England league. He has had an opportu- nity to return to the manage ment of the Mobile team, but as Iyet has reached no decision.

COTTON MARKET NOT
 TAKEN AS EXCUSE

The cotton condition is not to be taken as an accepted excuse for overdrafts in state banks, ac- cording to State Bank Commits sioner John M. Davis. The State laws governing overdraft will be strictly adhered to. Commits sioner Davis is of the opinion that the merchant who desires to get into the cotton game, need not be carried from day to day by overdrafts, but can, if he is worthy of credit, make other ar

LEGISLATION l. NOT NEEDED
 TO REDUCE ACREAGE
Commissioner Page Says Land lord, General Merchant and Small Banker are Ones
 to Reduce Acreage.

Little Rock, Oct. 1.-Legisla- tion is not needed to reduce the cotton acreage to a minimum, ac- cording to John H. Page, State Commissioner of Agriculture. He believes that it is in the pow CT of the landlord, the general merchant and the small banker to control the situation and do more than any law.
 We have between no, ,OOO and 120,000 tenants on small farms in Arkansas, states Commis- sioner Page. "who have been re- quired to plant sufficient amount of cotton to insure the rent before the landlord will per init them to occupy the place. Then the merchant who supplies this planter requires him to plant a certain amount of cotton to insure the payment of his bill. The small banker requires the merchant to have cotton con- tracts before he will grant him a line of credit. All we have to do is to get these men to change to diversified farming to make this class of farmers self SUD- porting. This will make re- duction of over fifty per cent of the cotton growing land in the state.
 Another twenty five per cent of the cotton lands of Arkansas is owned by farmers who have their places incumbered. The bankers require them to raise cotton in order to insure the in- terest and payments. They could just as easily require stock and grains.
 "The balance of the lands in the cotton section are owned by linen who are independent of merchants or banks, and they can plant what they want. but If you will check them over you Twill find they grow very little cotton any way.
 When the men l have men, ltioned change their specifica- tions for farming, and give the tenant land on which to make a living, instead of planting it lall in cotton, then will Arkansas become one of the most prosper ous state in the Union."

TWO THOUSAND REFUGEES
RUSH ACROSS BORDER

Preside, Jan. 3.-TwO thousand
Mexican refugees, including halt
starved women and children and
some Federal deserters, rushed
across the river to the United States
to-day to seek protection from the
battle Of Ojinaga. Many refugees
were started to Maria, Texas, 81
miles distant, afoot. The sick and
wounded were cared for by the Unit
ed States army and Red Cross. All
the Mexican army deserters are be-
ing held as prisoners.
Savage fighting between the reb-
els and Federals at Oiinaga con-
tinued throughout the night, the be-
sieged Federals resisting stubbornly
the attacking force. Before the day
break artillery of the rebels became
more furious. A rain of shells des-
cended on the Federal entrench-
ments and the losses are reported
heavy. Scattering bullets fell on
the American side but nobody was
injured. Fresh supplies for the Red
Cross arrived to-day.

CIGARETTES MAY BE
HIS NEXT INDULGENCE

Winstead. Conn. Jan. Pete, a
tame trout at Highland Lake. has
acquired a taste for sweets and also
chews gum. The fish, following a
New Years dinner to-day of bits of
roasted turkey and liver. was given
molasses candy, which he chewed
until ii melted in his mouth.
Then chewing gum was dropped
into the deep wall spring where
Pete lives the year around. Pete
quickly took II in his mouth and
began chewing. Half an hour later
he was still chewing gum while leis-
urely swimming about in a circle.
The trout now weighs fully one
pound and half. He will respond
to his name and eat from his own
er's hand.

in my mind that the announcement
made by J. p. Morgan & Co. is only
the forerunner of many similar an.
nouncements that will be made In
the near future, and from my point
of view the effect will be wholesome
and far-reaching.
only few days ago the Ameri-
can Telegraph & Telephone Compa-
ny showed that it was in sympathy
with the spirit of the times by an
nouncing that it would surrender
control of the Western Union Tele-
graph Company, and to-day's an
nouncement is just another indica-
tion that our big men appreciate
that a public be pleased policy is
better than the old public be
damned idea.
For ten years We have had open
antagonism between the public and
men OF affairs. Our big men have
now decided to meet the spirit of
unrest on the part of the public by
so adjusting their affairs as to com
ply with public sentiment, and be-
lieve that to-day's announcement
and those that will follow, will be
met by the public in the right spirit.
In brief. the events of the past few
days regarding corporation affairs
have encouraged me more than any,
thing that has happened in many
years"

wounds would have proved fatal
but the most serious was at the base
of the skull, center stroke. There
was another wound on the left side
of the head back of the ear, also one
above the ear and one on the crown
of his head. The first named wound
and the side stroke crushed the
skull. He had no other wounds
about his body, which was we'll pre-
served in its supposed nearly four
days stay under water.
Evidently nothing had happened
to Johnson after he had been struck,
as his clothing was not disarranged.
He still had the little doll wagon
strapped to his back and apples in
his pockets. He also had two SPUR
rels in a pocket, a watch, pocket
knife and bunch of keys. He was a
game warden of Ohio county and
carried his commission in his pocket.
Apparently he had died without a
struggle after being struck, evidently
from the. rear. He had no weapon
in his clothes.

count of this killing, as here stated,
were gotten mostly from County At
