FARMER IS KILLED
 BY HIS NEIGHBOR
Henry Bridges Shot By Frank Prewitt on Jones Farm Near Tuckerman Last Thursday.

Newport, June 18.-Deputy Sheriff R. L. Randy arrived in Newport this morning with Frank PeWitt, who last night shot and killed Henry Bridges on the Tom Jones place, about three miles north of Tucker man.
 Pewitt and Bridges both were croppers on the Jones place. Pewitt is 27 and has a wife and four children. Brid- ges was about 30 and had a wife and two children. Pewitt has been on the Jones place about II years and Bridges about one year.
 It is said that the trouble started when Pewitt used vio- lent and abusive language to Mrs. Bridges. It is said Bridges went to the home of Pewitt yesterday morning and cursed and applied epithets to Pewitt because of the language he had used before Mrs. Bridges.
 When Bridges came in from work late yesterday afternoon and while he was putting up his team at the barn, 1t is said Pewitt approached him with a shotgun and said, Your time is damned short. !" He then fired and Bridges fell mortally wounded. He lived about three hours. It is said Bridges was unarmed and was expect ing no further trouble.
 Bridges and his wife came here from Fulton county and Bridges parents live near Viola
 Pewitt has always borne a good reputation previously. He says he has never been in trouble before, that he had sold his crop on the Jones place and was preparing to go to Kansas to work in the wheat fields.
 After the shooting, Pewitt walked to Tuckerman and sur

Negro Girl Proues
 Herself q Heroine

In attempting t6 Save asmall negro child from being crush ed to death beneath the wheels of an Iron Mountain fast freight train at Diaz last Tues day, Bertha Hawthorne, a negro girl IS years of age, proved herself a heroine.
 She saved the child's life but in so doing sustained ser ious injuries and had mar row escape from death.
 She saw the child start across the track in front of the train and although she was several feet away she ran ac- ross the double track, grabbed the child and threw it clear of the track, but the train was so near she was unable to get en- tirely out of the way and was struck and thrown about 10 or l2 feet. She was severely bruised and probably sustain ed internal injuries. It is re- ported, however, that physi- clans who attended the girl, say she will probably recover.

COTTON CONDITIONS
 MOST FAVORABLE
Lesser-Goldman Company Re- ports Crop Outlook Most Promising in Many Years

Newport June 22.-The Les 'ser-Goldman Cotton Go. today issued the following report on the condition of the cotton crop in this section:
 Answers to our inquiry un- der date of 18th inst. indicate a very favorable crop condition in this territory. The only com plaints being made of some grass resulting from the recent wet weather and in some sec tlons lice have materially re- tarded the growth of the plant. Since receipt of replies to our inquiry we have had four days of perfect cotton weather, such weather as will effectually dis pose of the lice and make pos sible thorough cleaning of the crop. The territory cover- ed by our inquiry embraces the main line of the I. M. Ky. from Little Rock to the Missouri line; all of the White River Ky Memphis Branch from Bald Knob to MeCrory, M. 6 N. A. Ky. and the Rock Island from Jacksonport to Brinkley.
 In this territory today we believe 95 per cent crop con- dition exists. The crop at this writing is a few days later than on June 1st, but with fav- orable weather will easily re- gain the lost ground. General crop conditions in this territory are better than in years and possibly better than ever be- fore.

 It is said that several weeks ago, Bridges let his crop go over to Jones, from whom 1t was purchased by Bridges and that this made Pewitt envious of Bridges.

Autoists All Interested ''FH a !"
.... ........a =. y. lllNew. ReguIations

. wv > -
: MotoristssCat this time are yitally
interested in the'new provisions of the
state motor vehicle act which goes
into effect on December 81 at mid
night
With but a few Gays intervening be-
tween the present time and the time
of the new act becoming effective, mo-
torists. are scanning carefully the di-
gests of the law published recently in
book form by the legal department of
the Automobile Club of Southern Cal
ifornia.
One Of the most important of the
new provisions is the requirement of
DINNERS or deflected headlights. The
problem of arranging the lights so as
to comply with the law will confront
every automobile owner in the State
of California, and the automobile club
has issued, through its legal depart
ment, definite and specific instruc-
tions along this line.
1t is pointed out by the clubs at
torneys that the new law gives the
automobile owner the option of equip
ping his lights with DINNERS so as to
permanently prevent any glare there
from which might interfere with the
convenience or safety Of the use of
the highway or to so arrange the
lights that the center rays shall strike
the ground at distance not to eX-
ceed rs feet in front of the car
In short, the section reads in the
alternative. 1t is not absolutely neces-
sary to use a dimming device if the
lights rays are directed to the ground
within IS feet of the front of the car.
As a rule, the automobile owner will
probably find it more satisfactory to
DINNERS than to adopt the other meth
cd, although the determination of that
question depends largely on the size
and volume Of the lights used
Careful illustration of some of the
important provisions Of the new law
have been made by Clarence A. Eng
lish local distributor of King "Eights," 8"
in the latest King car.

No nan or WOman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally.
says a we'll known authority. Meat
forms uric acid. which excites the
kidneys, they become overworked
from the strain, get sluggish and fail
to filter the waste and poisons from
the blood, then we get sick. Nearly
all rheumatism, headaches. liver trou-
Bile, nervousness, dizziness, sleepless-
ness and urinary disorders come from
sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys or your back hurts or if
the urine is cloudy, offensive. full Of
sediment, irregular of passage or at

stop eating meat and get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar.
macy: take 2 tablespoonful in a glass
Of wafer before breakfast and in a
few days Your kidneys will act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid Of grapes and lemon juice, COM
'oined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimulate
the kidneys, also to neutralize the &C
ids in urine SO it no longer causes
irritation, thus ending bladder weak

claimed for them in every particular,
namely, they are clean, novel and up

real carnival here, with attractions OF

Among the prominent one may be
mentioned the society horse show,

by your watch, set it at any hour or
minute of the day you wish, goes to

bone-headed play in the office of Sec
rotary Of State Hall.
Just to show the animus behind the
action, John Andrews, assistant sec
rotary Of state and general scribe for
the so-called party of revolt in this
state, which plumes itself upon it's
political purity, signed petitions ref
erending the immigration bill.
The Tribune is not able to inform
it's readers al this writing whether
the weilder of the 'trenchent PEN
of the L%igeryood Broadaxe and the
Bismarck State News signed the
Equity or the Hellstorm petition, or
both.
Wish Father to the Act.
It was known from the first that
Secretary of State Thomas Hall would
strain every nerve to accomplish the
suspension of certain laws passed by
the last legislature. He was wise
enough to keep his own signature, off
the petitions, but several members
of his official staff signed some of
the petitions.
To Make Investigation.
Attorney General Linde will make
a thorough investigation of the stu
alton. Mr.. Hall at no time has seen
fit to ask for an opinion as to the
su~fficiency of the signatures. Many
of the petitions are most slovenly in
form.
