Outstanding has not been contradicted
by Gen. Goethals, that Col. Harding
would succeed to the goyernorship. In
fact, Gen. Goethals has let il be known
that he obtained the detail OF Col.
Harding to the isthmus for that very
purpose.
Immediately after his resignation as
governor and his departure from Pa
mama, Gen. Goethals plans to apply
for his retirement from active service
with the army. His intention Is TO
take years vacation and then to en-
gage in private engineering consulta-
ton work In New York City. In this
venture he probably will be joined by
bis son. Capt George r. Goethals, u.
s. A., and Sidney B. Williamson. long

Before Gen. Cocktails departure the
detail of Capt. Hugh Rodman, u. s.
NJ, from shore duty as marine superin-
tendent with the Panama Canal to the
command of the superintendent

by the navy department. Early this
year Capt. Rodman applied to the de-
partment for a return to sea duty on
the departure of Gen. Goethals from
Panama. His request was granted and
he was assured Of the command of the
New York. He probably viii be sue

Cmdr. H. v. Butler, U. s. N, at pre-
sent captain of the port OF Balboa, Ca
nal Zone, probably will have left the
canal by the time most of these chang
es take place. He already has applied
for detail at sea and undoubtedly VIII
be given the command of one OF the
smaller navy vessels. He probably
will be succeeded by Lieut.. Allen 3.

Col. Chester Harding Slated
For Governor to Succeed
G0ethaIs;; Navy Shifts
IBy Associated Press. J

PANAMA, C. Z-During the latter
part of August and the early days Of
September, next, several important
changes will take place among the
higher personnel of the Panama canal.
The resignation Of Ma. Gen. George
w. Goethals, u. s. A., as governor of
the Panama Canal and his departure
from the Isthmus, where he has been
IN supreme command for the last eight
years, will be the beginning of other
changes.
The most important of these will be

California with her mother, Mrs. C. B.
Ripley. Miss Gertrude was attending
Berkeley High until some months ago
when a strenuous attack Of measles
which nearly resulted In pneumonia
left her with eyes unfit for studying.
II was quite a disappointment as the
bright girl was on the eve of her grad

name for herself both in studies and
athletics.
That Helen Wilder has decided not
to return this year is a disappoint-
ment to the young folks She has been
attending school in the South and has
made up her mind to 60 into a girls
camp for the summer Last summer
she won the highest honors at the
camp for everything in the way OF
athletics. She took cup for the
swimming and diving and an Indian
blanket with her name for being the
best all around girl in the camp. This
is saying lot for Hawaii, isn't it?
Laura Low, too, has gone into the
mountains with a camp and no telling
what this very nature girl will do. I
suppose what she won't do would be
more to the point She will not return
to Honolulu until next year, after her
graduation at Capen school, North

POCAHONTAS FIRE
 CAUSES HEAVY LOSS
Six Brick Buildings Destroyed
 By Fire Which Started in Ho- tel Early Tuesday Morning.

Pocahontas, Oct. 12.-Fire originated in the Court Square Hotel at 2::30 o'clock this morn ling, completely destroyed every building on the south side of the court square. n Inadequate fire fighting ap- paratus furnished no protection land the people were unable to prevent the fire fromspreading in both directions. Six brick buildings were destroyed and the Pringle Drug Company's building on the east end of the row, was destroyed by an ex- plosion caused by the heatfrom the adjacent buildings. The shock of the explosion was felt over the entire town. The plate glass windows in the Randolph Coutny Bank building across the street from the Pringle building were broken by the force of the explosion.
 The loseres in the fire were as follows: Pringle Drug Con- pany, building and stock of drugs; Wall Bros.

FOUR CARS TOMATOES
 READY FOR SHIPMENT
Newark Canning Co.,, has Cars Loaded and Will Ship Friday With Streamers Flying

The Newark Canning Com pany yesterday completed the crating and loading of fourcars of tomatoes, and the four cars will be shipped to Little Rock tomorrow.
 The four cars are now stand ing on the siding awaiting the completion of a large streamer, which is being painted and will be attached across the full length of the four cars. The streamer will bear an inscrip- tion in large letters stating that the four cars contain choice high grade tomatoes put up by the Newark Canning Company of Newark and consigned to Bozley& Johnson of Little Rock.
 Manager Baucum has made a splendid record in the small amount of cans lost from spoil ing. His losses from this source are reduced to a minimum, asis shown by the fact that whenin- specting and labelling the four cars of tomatoes for shipment, an average of only three spoil ed cans were found to each car loaded out.
 The factory is now canning sweet potatoes and some splen- did high grade potatoes are be- ing put up.

PAIR PASS NEWARK ON
 LONC-DISTANCE HIKE
Man and Wife Making 1000 Mile Trip on Foot Spend Sum- day Night in Newark.

w. H. Watkins and wife who are making a cross country hike from Beaumont, Tex, to Nor folk, Va, were in Newark Mon- day morning.
 Mir. and Mrs. Watkins left Beaumont on the 27th of last January. They walked north through Texas, Oklahoma and into Kansas before turning east ward, and coming down through the Ozarks by way of Spring field, Mo. After passing Bakers field, Mo-, they kept near the White river, but have not fol- lowed the railroad, preferring the dirt roads for walking.
 MT. Watkins, whose home is in Cleveland, Ohio, is a maga- zine writer of some note, and on the trip he is gathering ma- terial for a book which he in- tends to prepare Republication the coming spring.
 MT. Watkins is long-dis- tance walker and has made a number of cross country hikes. The present trip is being made on a wager, parties in Beau mont having offered to bet that a woman could not walk from that place to Norfolk, Va, in a year, and Watkins says he promptly took them up on be- half of his wife. He and his wife left Beaumont on Jan uary 27 on the trip and he says they have merely been playing along most of the time so far, but that they expectto get down to business and cover 30 to 35 miles a day from now until the trip is completed.
 They left Beaumont with on- ly 28 cents and are making the money to defray all necessary expenses of the trip as they go along.
 They spent Sunday night at the home of Uncle Nat Wilson, near town, and after spending a few minutes in Newark Mon- day morning, they continued their journey.

A Many Entries Now Booked and
 Manager H. C. Sanders Says Fair Will be Most Successful
 Ever Held in Jackson County

Jackson county's second an- nual fair will be held at New port next week, opening on Wednesday, the goth, and con- tinuing up to and including Sat uray, the 23rd.
 A premium list aggregating $5,000 has been prepared. The list covers a wide range and shows that the management have spared no pains or ex- pense in their efforts to make the fair a successful one
 In conducting the fair it has been the aim of the manage ment to give prominence to those features that would prove not only educational, but be an incentive to the introduction and growing of more and better live stock and aid in teaching the importance of thorough soil preparation, proper seed selec- tion and the various other steps in progressive agriculture.
 The fair will be the mostsuc- cessful one ever held in Jack son county now seems an naSuur- ed fact. Manager H. c. Sand CTS states that there will be an unusually large list of entries, and that there will be the best agricultural, horticultural and live stock exhibit ever shown at any fair in North Arkansas.

DEMONSTRATION
 WORK VALUABLE
Government Reports Show Mon- ey Spent For This Work in
 Arkansas Gets Good Results.

Independence county has re- ceived a proposition from the U. $. Government and College of Agriculture, cooperating, of fering to contribute from $450 to $500 fort he improvement of farming and stock raising in the county during the coming year. This money would help defray the expense ofmaintain- ling a farm denomination agent in the work of demonstrating profitable farming methods. This is the class of work that enabled farmers working under the direction of these agents in the State to grow an average of 28 bushels of corn while the Arkansas farmers average corn yield is only Is bushels to the acre. The cotton yield was 524 pounds, State average, but far mers following the advice of the farm demonstration agents raised an average of LIPS punds to the acre.
 County Judge Waldrip has received a proposition from c. w. Watson, State Agent, farm demonstration work for Arkan- sas to be submitted to the Quo- rum Court that meets on Octo- Der 27.
 The work costs more than the amount contributed to the Coun- ty by the Government andState College of Agriculture, and the difference, of course, has to be borne by the county where the work is done. For instance if the court will levy, in cash, $750 the College and Government will contribute $450 cash, and if the county will increase the amount by $50, the Govern ment and College will increase it's gift by the same amount, or $900 to $600.There is regular scale of increase for larger a. mounts.
 That most of the counties in Arkansas have snapped up these offers of free aid for sev- eral years past is shown by the fact that in 1913 Government aid amounted to $40,000 while local appropriations amounted to $53,000 including $2,780 contributed by the railroads in transportation to the farm dem- onstation agents.
 This amount was greatly in- creased in 1914 when a total of nearly S112,000 was spent for farm demonstration work in the State. It is expected that still larger increase will be seen this year, particularly in view of the geat interest shown in inn proved and profitable farming methods, and the remarkable awakening shown by bankers, business men and the public generally.
 With increased crop produc- tion absolutely shown by farm demonstration methods it is plain that money spent to main- tain an agent in a county, with the Government and College contributing nearly half of the amount expended, is brought back into the county and spent among local business men through the increased value of crops produced. In addition to this the farm demonstration agents are instrumental in mak- ing farm life easier and more satisfactory and therefore hap pier. A phase of this is seen in the boys corn, pig and poultry club work and in the girls can ming club work, in demonstra- ting good roads, and other forms of constructive and in- structive methods.
