Boats That Travel on Land.

The unsophisticated visitor to the
lumber districts of Canada may oc-
casionally see what is to him a very
remarkable sight, a primitive-looking
steamboat high and dry on a road,
crawling along quite comfortably, ap-
parently just as much at home as in
its natural element These boats are
known as "alligators,' and are used
for towing the RATS Of logs down the
rivers and lakes to the mills. Some
times it is desired to transfer one of
these craft to. q new sphere Of opera

CLAYTON AND HIS PATRIOTISM

Prof P. P Claxton national commissioner OF eduCa-
tion hoy denies the mputaOn made by the Sons OF Iae
Revolution that he subscrbes to a single unpaflouc
tenet Here is what the distinguished educator says
Give or six years ago in Boston delivered lecture
in which among other things, said, In modern cneS
the flag must stand for larger things than it did 1or he
ancients. People are drawn from all corners OF the
earth to live together They are born one place i've an
other travel much and thus nearer to the ideal
universal aherhood of God and brotherhood Of man. and
in this connection the flag in the broader sense must
serve ALL The time has come when men do not revere
he flag alone for its material combination Of coIors,
but for what symbozes If it stands for liberty equal
ty Of opportunity progress prosperity and real protec-
ton it is loved and reyered If it stands for oppression
and the denial Of freedom and lack Of opportunity then
it is not reyered no matter what the material or color
81 never said a derogatory word against the flag in
my life revere it as other men do not as battle flag,
necessarily but as a flag symbozing freedom and equal
ity in all things and to make it carry out its function
have given 10 years of my life
The sentiments expressed should not offend a single
patriotic citizen Of this country The flag is only SYM
bo just Mr. ClaXton contends and it will be reyered
and men will fight and die and women suffer for it, only
so long it stands for the principles Of liberty justice
and equality, and to maintain it as such symbol should
be the greatest concern Of every patriot Neither does
being the defendant Of participant in the revolutionary
war mean very much Of ITSELF it matters most what
record for loyalty and good citizenship one has made for
himself

DEWIN DECLARED SANE
 SENTENCE STANDS

Benton, May 20.-Clarence Dewein was pronounced sane by jury in the Circuit court here shortly afternoon today The verdict was returned by the jury after brief deliberation the last argument having been completed at 11:15 o'clock this morning, when c. P. Johnson of St. Louis, former lieutenant governor of Missouri, de- clared Dewein insane, and unable to understand the proceedings of the trial in which he was condemned to Ielectrocution.
 Last testimony was introduced last might and Grover T. Owens, a Little Rock attorney, made the opening argu- ment in behalf of the condemned youth. D. D. Glover, prosecuting at torney, and J. s. Utley, former prose outing attorney, argued for the State this morning.
 The jury returned the verdict about 1:45 o'clock this afternoon. The de- cision was to the effect that Dewein was sane at the time of committing the murder. As a result, Dewein and his companion, Joe Strong, without doubt will die in the electric chair. Immediately after the verdict was re- turned officers started to Little Rock with the condemned youth.
 Testimony in the case was complet- ed Wednesday evening in time for the opening argument to be made by Mr. Owens. The last evidence was introduced about S;30 o'clock. Many witnesses, including several expert physicians, and three fellow-convicts of Dewein's, testified that he appar- ently was insane. The State introduc ed about 25 witnesses to combat the delegation.
 Dewein and Joe Strong, whose home ! is said to be in Seligman, Ariz.. mur- dered l.. H. Tompson, Benton mer- chant, in 1913. Dewein admitted the crime and implicated Strong, who had fled. Strong later was arrested and also confessed
 Numerous efforts have been made to get the death sentence meted out to the two youths commuted to life i'm prisonment. Governor George w. Hays has steadfastly refused to re- duce the punishment however, and Dewein's trial was believed to be the last effort that could be made to aid him in escaping the electric chair.
 Dewein's and Strong's executions are set for June 8.

$l5O,0O0 LOSS IN
 SAW MILL AT AMITY
l5O Men Thrown Out of Work as ;, Result of ROsbOro Plants Des- truction. Sawmill and EIec-
 tric Plant Destroyed.

Amlty, May 20.-The Rosboro lum- Der mill, three and one-half miles northwest of Amity burned this aft ernoon, causing $150,O00 loss. About 150 men are thrown out of emplov- ment.
 Both the sawmill and the electric power plant were destroyed, but en- ployes, by hard work, saved all the lumber and also the planer.
 Bemis Brothers owned a controlling interest in the mill and the remaining stock is owned by Kansas City capi- talists. w. F. Rosboro, with head quarters at Prescott, is general mana .. ger. MT. Rosboro was in Prescott but started for here as soon as he learn ed of the fire.
 It is believed the mill will be re- built as not half of the company's timber in this section has been sawed.
 The mill was one of the largest and best equipped int his section. It had a capacity of S0,O00 feet day. It is known that some insurance was car ried, but it is impossible to learn the amount until the arrival of Mr Ros- boro.

PROTECTION AGAINST
 CLOTHS MOTHS
Camphor, Tar Paper, Cedar Chests and Other Preventatives Useless When Eggs Are Present.
 Brushing is Important.

Washington, D. C., May 21.-The various substances used to keep away moths, such as tobacco, camphor, naph- thalene cones or balls, tarred paper, and cedar chips have no effect if the eggs are already present in the clothes and entomology specialists in the United States Department of Az riculture therefore recommend a thorough beating, shaking, and brush ing of all articles likely to attract moths. before they are laid away for the summer The brushing of gar ments is especially important in order to remove eggs which may have es- capped notice. If the articles are quite free from eggs and larvae when laid away, the odor from the various repel- Tents already mentioned or from ce dar chests and wardrobes will serve ! to keep the moths away. This odor, however, lessens with age, so that the protection it affords is greatly de creased after few years. For this reason when furs and other valuable garments are wrapped in tarred paper or placed in sacks of tarred paper these containers should be renewed every year or two.
 In general moths are likely to af : feet only articles which are put away and left undisturbed for some little time. Apartments and closets that are frequently aired and swept are not apt to be seriously affected. Tn fact airing and sunlight are probably the best as well as the oldest reme- dies. Where circumstances demand that the articles be put away, how ever, convenient and effective device is to place them in a large paste board boxes such as tailors use and gum strip of wrapping paper around the edge so as to seal up the box con,- pletely and leave no cracks. If the garments have been thoroughly clean ed before being placed in these boxes no additional protection is necessary  and there is none of the objectionable odor which is characteristic of so many moth repellents.
 For valuable articles the safest plan is to place them in cold storage. Re cent experiments have shown that the larvae of the clothes moth will resist for long time low temperatures if these ahe uniform, but that the alter nation of low and high temperatures quickly results in death. It is rec commended therefore that storage com panies submit their goods to two ol three changes, varying the tempera ture from about IS degrees F. to 40 or 50 degrees, Fahrenheit. After this preliminary treatment, they should be kept permanently at about 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Any lower temperature is a needless expense.
