Will Re-instate Main
 Line Local Passenger

The Iron Mountain Railroad, through an agreement reached before the Arkansas Railroad Commission at LittleRock We'd nesday. will re-instate the local passenger train on the main line between Little Rock and Hoxie, which was discontinued about year ago.
 Effective October 31 the train will be reinstated, and will go south in the morning on about the same schedule as be- fore it was discontinued. This is the train the morning Hot Shot" on the White River road made connection with at New port, permitting passengers of this road to go south without waiting for the fast trains. It is presumed that when this train is re-instated the Hot Shot will resume it's former schedule between Batesville and New port, as this was part of the agreement when the local was discontinued and the Hot Shot was given its run.

WILL GROW CROP
 OF CELERY HERE
Claud Edwards, Recently Re- turned From West, Where he
 Grew Celery, Will Try Here.

Claud Edwards who returned last week from Sawtelle, Cali, will engage in celery culture the coming season and expects ito grow two acres.
 MT. Edwards had consider able experience in celery cul- ture in California, where it is grown extensively, and is con- fident he can make a success of it here. He grew small crop of about a quarter of acre of eel cry this year in California, from which he realized more than S700. A celery crop usually produces about 2,500 to $3,- 900 per acre. Two to four acres is considered a good crop for one man, as it requires very close attention and must be ir- rigated, being plant that re- qulres a great deal of water.
 He expects to plant his crop on a level plot of ground just west of town, lying convenient to a spring on the hillside, and has an ideal irrigation plan al- ready formulated.
 Celery is one of the most pro- fltable crops grown and if 1t can be grown successfully here. Mr. Edwards will have greatly benefited this community by introducing a new and profit able industry in this section.
 The Journal hopes the ven- ture will prove a profitable one and wishes him all manner of success.

REMITS PENALTY
 AGAINST ARNOLD
Gov. Hays Relieves Collector Arnold of Payment of Penal ty on Delayed Settlements.

Gov. Hays issued aproclama- ton relieveing Tax Collector Burt Arnold of all penalties as- sessed against him recently in county court by reason of his delinquency in complying with the provisions of the county de- pository law.
 Suit was filed against MT. Arnold some time ago by T. J. Walbert of Batesyille, wherein it was sought to hold the collec- tor liable for penalties and in terest in a large sum, alleging that he had failed to make set Elements according to law.
 MT. Arnold's reasons for not making ettlements promptly were that he was at the time making rounds of the county, collecting taxes, and that ow- ing to bad weather and his physical condition, he was un. able to make settlements in ev- cry instance as often as requir- ed.
 When the matter came up for trial in the county court, Judge Waldrip rendered iudg- ment against Mir. Arnold for $228 penalty and $225 interest. The aggregate penalty and in- terest sued for amounted to S54,852.
 It is said that Mr. Arnold has agreed to pay the amount ofin- terest which the court held he was due the county, which is S225. The governors proclama- tion relieves him of the pay ment of the $228 penalty.
 The case was heard in the coutny court on the 18th of August. Both MT. Walbert and MT. Arnold filed notice of ap- peal, neither being satisfied with the judgment of the coun- ty court, but the action of Gov. Hays in remitting the penalty will bring the matter to close it is said.
 Mr. Arnold is at present in Hot Springs where he has been for some time for the benefit of his health and is said to be inn proving, although he is still in very poor health.

Iron Mountain Liberal
 In Aiding Flood Victims

The Iron Mountain Railroad Company is deserving of a good deal of credit for the splendid manner in which the company extended aid to victims of the recent flood in this section. Many of the people who lost practically everything they had desired to get away to seek en- ployment at other places that were not affected by the floods. The railroad company prompt ly offered to carry all such per free of fcharge, ,nomatter how far they desired to go, and when the local Relief Committee ask ed for transportation for one person or for an entire family, they got 1t and no questions were asked and no protest made.
 Agent w. w. Hoyt informs The Journal that total of 358 free tickets were issued by the company at Newark, the total value of which amounted toS1,- ,- 413. B. In addition to this, the Iron Mountain handled approx imately 25, ,000 pounds of bag gage on these tickets free of charge and all supplies shipped here for the benefit of the flood suffers were handled free of charge.

YOUTH ACCIDENTALLY
 KILLED NEAR DESHA
Body of Lawson Saffley Found With Neck and Throat Muti- lated from Charge of Shot.

Lawson Safley, a prominent young man of the Deha neigh borhood, a few miles south of Batesville, was found dead in the woods near Desha Friday night, with a charge of squirrel shot from a shotgun in hisneck and throat.
 The young man left home Friday afternoon to go hunting, and when he did not return at nightfall, his father instituted search. The body was found about II o'clock by Stacy and John Varnell, neighbors, who had joined in the search.
 From the position in which the body fell, and from the gen. eral surroundings, the conclu- sion was reached thatthe young man was in the actofapproach- ing tree where he saw asquir- rel, and was about to step over log to reach the place of van- tage. Just above the log was protruding limb, and it is thought he stumbled and that the gun came in contact with the protruding limb in such way as to discharge the gun. The entire charge took effectin the neck and throat, and that part of the body was horribly mutilated. The boys clothing became ignited, and wasalmost burned from the body, which was badly charred.
 Justice R. R. Case and Sher- if Ruddell went to the scene of the accident, and Squire Case empaneled a jury and held an inquest. The inquest verict was to the effect that young Saffley came to his death from the ac- cidental discharge of his gun.
 The young man was Is years old.

Windows BROKEN
BY BIG BERTHAS'
Havoc Caused by Firing of Ger
man Gun is Told in Letter
From Officer.

BERLIN. sept. Sin a letter
from Flanders Capt Carl Schroeder
OF the 10Th reserve infantry, gives a
striking picture Of a German 42-cen-
tinetre gun at work. He writes.
I'VE had an eventful week. First
Landsturm troops arrived. They
possessed themselves of the houses of
the village and took things easy for
a few days. Then 2 railroad battalion
came and we got busy. Within "a
hours VIC put down about FIVE miles
OF tracks. The quickly built line he
gan at the depot OF the small town Of
~ and ended near "a large swamp
in the n~eighborhood of our village.
At daybreak a long train of fiat
cars came creeping over our line. The
train brought a Big Bertha and its
attachments. Six hours later the giant
42-centimeter mortar was placed ina
position on "a concrete foundation be-
meath a big tree.
The population of the district was
kept at a respectable distance while
the work was going on amid torrents
Of rain. No civilian was allowed to
approach the i-mprovised railroad and
our village. The inhabitants of the
nearby own only knew hat some
thing big was in preparation and
they waited awestruck for further Ge-
velOpments.
"In the early morning OF he next
day Big Bertha went into action
and began throwing shells on a for
tifed town 81 miles distant. At the
first shot the pressure of the air
smashed every indow in our village.
The houses rocked as II they had been
struck by "a fearful cyclone. Two Of
them jumped from their foundations
and collapsed.
Every 20 minutes a shot was fred
and we quickly became accustomed
to the Internal noise.
The firing of this monster gun
was a sight too indescribable gran
deur. With a dull. deafening roar a
ding Of fire rose from the mouth of
the mortar to a heighth of about a
hundred feet and then we could see
the immense shell as ii sped toward
its destination through the clear
morning air. n shell looked like
an enormous rubber ball propelled
through space with the speed of
lightning.
''The queerest thing about these
m,,-~ter mOTtars is that you do not
feel the shock of the shot If you
stand close to them. The officer who
discharges the gun 10y pressing an
electric button assured me that he
felt no physiological effect whatever
and hardly heard the roar.
THE Frenchmen became aWfully
mad when Big Bertha started to
work. Their aviators appeared ana
soon discovered the position Of the
gun. but the French artillery was
powerless, as they could not reach us
with their heavy field pieces. Finally
an English armOred battery came to
the aid of the French. but the Bri-
fishers only succeeded in having their
15-centimeter guns silenced and de-
stroyed."

EnsIand's Army Rifle.

Enoland's Army Rihe.
 Quite number of people believe that cartridges are served out to the soldiers separated from one another. Cartridges are. however, usually given out fastened together in clips of five. The modern rife used by the British army is known as a magazine rife and holds two clips or ten cartridges in the magazine itself as well as an ex- tra cartridge above the magazine. elev- en rounds in all.
 When the cartridge clip Is forced into the magazine the fastening is removed, so that each cartridge when 1t reaches the magazine is separate from the oth- CTS.
 The magazine of the army rife is nothing more than n detachable box containing spring. This spring forces up one cartridge at time into Its position ready for firing. As a rule the ten cartridges in the magazine are only used in great emergency. as when the order for rapid firing Is given to stop an enemy's charge. In the ordi- nary way the magazine, with its ten cartridges, Is shut off from the rest of the rife by means of metal slide call ed the '-cut off."-London Standard.
