trait in their characters is disclosed
when one of Floria's lambs is wound

which completely mystifies Sergius.
A little later Sergius marries Flora,
and takes her to Rome. All is new

his slaves to seek her but their

HODGES GETS ANOTHER
 RESPITE OF 17 DAYS
Supreme Court Decides that County and Chancery Court Had no Jurisdiction Interfere-Res-
 pite Until Decemebr 8th.

Arthur Hodges, the condemned Clark county murderer, was not cleo trocuted today. By the action of the State Supreme Court he gets another respite of seventeen days at least. The Court decided that the Chancery Court and the Pulaski Probate Court had no jurisdiction to interfere, and the writ of prohibition against the Chancellor was granted and the in junctive order of the chancery court against the Penitentiary commission CTS was quashed.
 However, there is rule of the su- preme Court that on order in any pro- ceeding is effective for fifteen juris- diction days after it is made, and therefore under order of the Supreme Court Hodges cannot legally be exc cuted before Tuesday Dec. 8.
 The court rules, however, that "there is complete and adequate remedy at law, and the there was no reason to justify the issuance of the jurisdiction even if the chancery court had jurisdiction to do so. A writ upon proper application could be issued by the circuit court or the judge thereof returnable to the court to inquire into the alleged insanity of the defendant at the time set for the execution, to the end that the sen- tence might not be carried out if it were determined by jury empanell- ed for the purpose that the defendant was insane"
 It has not been announced just what step will be taken by counsel for the acused.

WEEKLY REVIEW OF
 THE COTTON MARKET
Hedge Selling Causes Decline Soon After Reopening, but Recovery Has Started. General Busi-
 ness is Restricted.

New York, Nov. 20.-The first week of renewed trading on the New York Cotton Exchange has been compara- lively uneventful. The reopening of the market on Monday was followed by considerable hedge selling of new style contracts for March, May and July delivery, and there was also It. uuidation of old December contracts attributed to some of the smaller To- cal houses who had been allotted cot ton by the corporation under the syn dicate agreements. Prices weakened some 50 to 60 points from the initial figures under this pressure, but offer ings tapered off on the decline and the market since has recovered several points of the loss on covering and trade and investment buying
 Large trade interests here are cred ited with having purchased most of the December contracts liquidated during the earlier part of the week and the near month has led the rally on covering by the LivorpCc! short inter i est. which finds few sellers around the local nrig below parity with South ern spot prices. The talk is that the interest still outstanding in December is greatly in excess of the local stock, and that the contracts may be held for ,, od,o,,co or actual deliveries
 General business is believed to have
The Prescott daily news., 1914-11-21

been restricted considerably by unfa- miliarity with the merits of the new contracts which are being traded in for delivery in January and later months, and local brokers are predict ing a much more active market once some interest has accumulated and it is generally understood that the con- tract is in uniformity with the cot ton futures law. Aside from this, the light business reflects divided senti- ment with buyers held in check by the existence of large available supplies
 in the South and the indications of crop larfgly in excess of requirements while sellers are evidently cautions at prices below the estimated cost of pro- duction and in view of the improving export tarde.

SHALL DRILL
 TWICE EACH MONTH

Little Rock, Nov. 21.--Orders have been issued by the headquarters of the Arkansas National Guard. that, beginning Nov 1, each company shall assemble for drill and instruction at least twice a month, devoting at least an hour and half to such work at each meeting. The name and rank of each officer and each enlisted man must be made of record at each as sembly. At the federal inspection which will be held after Jan. 1, 1913, these records for the year ending Dec. 31, 1914, must be presented to the inspecting officer. Any organiza- tion whose records at that time fail to show by name and date the requir- ed attendance at drill and instruction places itself in jeopardy as to the right use of the federal appropriation for the year 1915.
 Non-commissioned officers schools are to be held twice month Tn each company beginning Nov. 1 to be con- ducted by the company commander or some officer designated by him. The work in the Officers Correspondence school is still being carried on and is showing good results.

 The disease when contracted by adults is not at all a serious illness. It commonly takes the form of slight fever sores in the mouth and a slight eruption on the fingers. In, the case of small or sickly children, it may take a more serious form, especially if complicated by other illnesses.

washington D. c. Nov. 21.--Accord- ,,s to the specialists of the Depart
 Ds ,t of Agriculture people even in csa c,,tes ouarantined for the foot-and- s.ntb s disease need have no fear of n 's,ing meat, provided they cook it thoroughly. The foot-and-mouth dis
 .,o @ is not easily communicated to ssrsn s beings through food, al though ul m from diseased COW might transmit the disease to human be-
 .r In the case of milk, howey CT .asturization @ will render it entirely s.fe Human beings who do get ,hs diesease commonly get it from di- ,s,t contact with a sick animal. It is visest, therefore, for people to keep .vsv from all animals having the disease, unless they are properly pro- v;ded with rubber gloves, coats and hoots, and these are thoroughly dis infected after each visit to the ami mas.
 In the case of meat, as in the case
 of milk, it must be remembered that all herds which actually show the dis ease are quarantined, and neither milk nor meat from the sick animals can be sold. 60 per cent of the meat used in this country is produced in the nearly 900 Federally inspected sIaughtering and packing establish ments no animal is slaughtered until 1t has passed an ante-mortem inspec- ton and also a most rigid post-mor- tenn inspection by a veterinarian at time of slaughter. After slaughter its meat cannot leave the establish ment until it has been carefully ex- smined and stamped "U. s. Inspected and Passed" In all these establish mentS no animal showing any symp- toms whatever of foot-and-mouth dis ease is allowed to go to slaughter, and no meat which, on post-mortem in- spection, shows any suspicious symp- toms of this complaint can be shipped out of the establishment. All meat suspected of coming from an animal suffering with this complaint is sent, under Government seal, to the tanks to be rendered into fertilizer. The Federal inspection stamp on meat, therefore, means that it is entirely safe.
 The Federal Government, however, has no jurisdiction over local slaugh- ter ohuses which do not ship meat outside of the State in which it is slaughtered. If, however, meat from such an animal did escape from one 0 these local slaughter houses, which are purely under State or municipal control, all danger of it's communi- catlng the disease to human beings would be removed when it is thorough

EUROPEAN WAR AFFECTS
 MANUFACTURERS POTTERY
Condition is Said to be Largely Fault of POtteries Themselves-Many Vast Beds of Clay all Var
 ieties in this Country.

Among the many materials in com mon use that have been affected by the European war is clay suitable for manufacture of pottery of various kinds.
 "That this condition is largely the fault of the potteries themselves is attested by the fact that there are known many and vast beds of clay of all varieties in this country" says John T. Fuller State Mineralogist.
 "The peculiarity of the pottery clay working industries generally seems to be that when once certain clay is found to come up to specifications the potter will continue to use the same clay if possible, no matter how diff cult it may be to obtain, and stub- bornly refuses to experiment with any other clay, notwithstanding the fact that clay may be submitted to him of as good or better grade, located within easy reach.
 Many foreign clays are used by the potteries of the United States as the supply of imported clays is now entirely cut off, it is up to the Ameri- can potteries to find a domestic SUD- ply or close their plants. Clay avail able for the manufacture of clay pro- ducts is one of the most widely spread minerals of this country. There are clay working plants of one descrip- tion in every state in the union.
 "The miners of the lower grades of clays are usually the manufactur- CTS, but as the higher masses of clay are reached the fewer manufacturers are also miners and as a rule buy their clay from others. The figures given below represent clay that is mined and not manufactured by the miner is sold as clay to the manufac- turer, and are therefore interesting as indicating the extent of the market that may be opened up to Arkansas clays:
 In 1913 there was total output of 33S, ,123 tons, valued at $2,006,775
 The tariff act of 1913 reduced the duty on clay 50 per cent.
 During the same year there was mined and sold in the United States a total of 2,647,9S9 tons of clay, val ued at $4,1S0,45
 Thus out of approximately $6,00O,- 900 paid for clays in 1913, we paid one third to foreign producers.
 In 1913 we mined and sold only 2S,S34 tons of the highest grade kaolin or China clay while we i'm ported 26S,666 tons. It is in the pro- duction of the highest grade of clays that We are deficient
 "Arkansas is very fortunate in pos sessing large quantities of clays oi various kinds, and the opportunity is now at hand for exploiting this re source of the state."
