 MINE SWEEPING GOES ON.

Turkish Ships Are Reported to Be As sembIing at Nagara-AIIies Lost 19
 Killed, 3 Missing and 25 Wounded.

London.-The British battleships Queen Elizabeth and Prince George and the battle cruiser Infiexible, with their eight 15-inch and their dozen 12- inch guns, attacked the principal forts on the European side of the narrows in the Dardanelles.
 Two of the forts were damaged and the magazine of a third was blown up. Guarding the narrowest part of the straits from the European side, they are believed to be the strongest forts along the entire water way, although those opposite almost equal them.
 One fort, indicated on the admiralty maps as Il, has two 14-inch guns that could scarcely reach the Queen Eliza beth, which fired 29 rounds from her 15-inch weapons by indirect fire and had the advantage of aeroplanes to aid her gunners. The other two forts have three 11-inch guns and some smaller cannon
 Cruisers continue attacks on the for tifcations along the coast of Asia Mi HOT, from Besika, near the entrance to the Dardanelles, to Smyrna, doubtless to prevent re-enforcements being sent to the straits, where there are many Turkish troops, with whom the ma- rfnes landed to complete destruction of the forts at the entrance to the straits have been fn contact It was in the %-hx casualties, according to the British re- port, of IS killed, 25 wounded and three missing. The Turks, however, place the British casualties at higher figure.

Petrograd.-The Russian army of the Caucasus driving the Turkish forces before 1t has reached the river Khopachas, the estuary of the Tcho- ruk in Armenia This advance by the Russians cuts the route of Turk fish endorsements and supplies from Constantinople to the Caucasian from tier, through Khopa, Turkish Armenia and isolates large section of Turkish territory.
 The Russian forces advanced from Batum on the Black Sea near the Turkish border and were opposed by the Turks at every step. They were assisted by Russian warships, which cleared the shore of Turkish forces and cut off successfully several ave nues of Turkish communications by sea until only the Khopa route re mained.
 After battle of three days this last route was closed effectively.
 Official returns show that up to Feb ruary 13. 49,000 Turkish prisoners, in- cluding 527 officers, had passed through Pyatigorsk since the war with Turkey began, on their way to the in- tertor of Russia.

SAYS ZINC FIELD
 POOR MANS CHANCE
RICH WORKINGS OPEN TO OPE- RATOR ON A SMALL
 SCALE.
STATE BIOLOGIST REPORTS
Ore Beds Declared to Be Radically Different From Those of South
 west Missouri District.
Mountain Home

Tt is a poor mans field, where mines can be developed at a minimum expense" said John T. Fuller, state geologist of Arkansas, after having spent six weeks Investigating the geo. logical conditions and the operating mines in the North Arkansas zinc dis trict.
 The ore beds," said MT Fuller, fare radically different from those of the Southwest Missouri district h that district there is a blanket formation of sheet ground, much of which re- turns but small metal content, but which covers large areas. The Arkan- sas district will probably not develop this sheet ground formation in the deeper levels. The upper ore beds of the Arkansas field without exception lie in breaks and troughs, and the probabilities are that the deeper ore bodies will also lie in this form as the surface ruptures extend apparently deep into the earth.
 Successful mining in this field will be conducted with small plants rather than large ones. Success can best be obtained with numerous small units rather than by fewer larger ones, on account of the irregularity of the ore deposits. At places these deposits are exceedingly rich, at others lean. While the average recovery Is good, mill ing cost should not be,entailed on the real lean dirt Sorting of all ore should be resorted to, and that which will not return good recovery should not be milled, as 1t costs as much to mill rock as ore
 ITO practical men this district of fers wonderful opportunity on ac- count of the small expense involved tn opening up the ore deposits. In a great many instances the ore is found ill free chunks that require no milling, but is marketable in the same shape as it comes from the ground. These properties can be put on a paying ba- sis with few pick and shovel men, increasing the force and output as the ground is opened up. There are many small mill propositions also that can be opened up with small amount of capital"

TAX EXTENSION
 FINALLY BEATEN
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OPPOSED TO PROPOSITION OF EXTEND
 ING TIME FOR PAYING.
THREE BILLS ARE DEFEATED
Last Bill Was Designed to Aid Tax payers of Only Limited Num-
 Der of Counties.
Little Rock

Little Rock
 The Fortieth General Assembly went on record most emphatically against the policy of extending the time for the payment of taxes. Three bills for this purpose were defeated by the house, one of them, a general bill, after 1t had passed the Senate.
 The first bill was one that had been vigorously championed by Rep resentative Brawner of Clay county to extend the time of tax paying in his county from April 10 to Novem- Der 10. He lost at every point, al- though he made hard fight for the benefit of his constituents
 Then came the bill which had passed the Senate, providing for an extension of time all over the state. This was also badly beaten. As last resort, the representatives of h. dependence, Izard, Fulton, Sharp, Jackson, Clay, Randolph, Green, Law renee, Howard. Nevada, Prairie and Monroe introduced a bill to apply to their counties alone. This had rough passage through the legislative break CTS. It provided that those who ask ed for an extension of taxes should pay the state 10 per cent for the time extended after April 10. In the final contest Messrs. Gray, Rogers of De sha and Brawner supported the bill, MT. Rogers explaining that as MT. Gray had been one Of the first to come to the relief of eastern Arkansas counties during the overflow period of 1893, he favored giving the hill counties the relief sought. Messrs- Griffin and Belote opposed the bill, MT. Griffin on the ground that it is class legislation and MT. Belote be- cause he believed 1t did not provide for protection to the common school fund, but would make the other coun- ties support this fund for the ex- empted counties. The bill was final iy defeated, 36 to fl, and with it the last chance of any sort of taxpaying extensions or exemptions for this ses- sion

The Woods nuisance act" signed by the governor, is modelled after the famous Tennessee statute, and is in- tended. as it's author declares. to get the man higher up" in the blind tiger business-the man who allows his buildings to be operated for the pur- pose of illegal liquor traffic.
 Under this law an investigation may be ordered. where there is cause to believe that the liquor laws are being violated. and if violations are to be found the chancellor is authorized to order the place of business closed, and any reopening of the place for the purpose of illegal sale of liquor works as conviction for contempt of court and subjects the agent, owner or person in charge of the building to Imprisonment for from 30 days to six months, in addition to a fine of not exceeding $50. The building is closed and may not be reopened for any pur- pose within year.
 In determining whether or not liQ- uor is being sold illegally, the court may take prima facie evidence of such violation the possession by the de- fendant of an internal revenue liquor tax stamp. or record showing that he has taken out revenue license. Copies of the records in the office Of the district internal revenue collec- tor are admissible in evidence.
 Not only is the attorney general or the prosecuting attorney authorized to file a petition with the court to abate a blind tiger nuisance, but any five cit'-ens may, without the concur reno 7eh officers, and upon their own T, file such petition and de- man. aa investigation within the premises. If filed by citizens they must make such bond for costs as the court may determine. to be assessed against them in case it develops that the petition was filed without prob able cause. Otherwise, no costs are taxed against the petitioners.
