What the sheriff believes to be ;
'frame-up" was pulled off in this city
last week. and the victim, who is ;
resident of the grand old state o.
Texas. has evidently lost some faiti
in human nature, especially nature
of the feminine gender
A correspondence has been goina
on for some time between a youne
lady OF this city and the above men

inevitable: A proposal, a tentative

of his "wad," and whole lot of con
fidence in the female sex.
He came to call on the object OF
his affections who, it seems, has a
lady friend" who has sweetheart
here, The three met and, after a
short period another young man ap-
pears upon the scene and proceeds to
do some "bawling out" to the one
who was presumably lavishing her
affections on the Texan, when he
thought they should be coming to him.
In the meantime the other couple
have had a quarrel, and both local
boys leave in huff, which leaves the
Texan with two ladies to escort
home, instead of one, which he gal
lanuy proceeded to do.
When in the western portion of the
city, two men stepped in front of the
trio, threw a gun in the Texans face,
and relieved him of his "wad." while
one of the ladies proceeded to faint,
in the most approved style, and the
other laughed hlariously.
This mirth was the cause of the
whole bunchs undoing. The Texan
became aroused, came to the city and
called on the officers for help. They
proceeded on a still hunt for the
TWO local lovers OF the fair damSelS,
and soon they were the guests at
Hotel Garrett. The two young ladies
came down to see them in the county
Jail, and their conversation led the
sheriff to believe that they were "in
on the play" and they, too, were
locked up.
Friday afternoon the two girls
made bond, but the two young men
are still in jail, where they are being
entertained by Sheriff Garrett, who
has succeeded in getting some in

uty sheriff who made the arrest
states that it has all the appearance
of "frame-up."

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by J constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin

tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing. and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless the inflamma-

restored to its normal condition, hear

Veterans to Tulsa were made at a
mass meeting of the citizens held
here tonight. Adjutant General Ma
than Bedford Forrest OF Memphis,
Tenn, prominent in the National
Sons of the Confederate Veterans,
who is in Tulsa for the purpose of
ascertaining its ability to entertain
the reunion, reported to the meeting
what would be expected of any city
proposing to entertain the old sol
diers
General Forrest says that Tulsa's
chances of getting the reunion should
be good in view of the fact that only
three meetings have been held west
of the Mississippi during the past
twenty five years. Tulsa has tried
for the reunion for three successive
years. 1t attracts not less than 10O,
900 people.

ABOUT EATING
Your Stomach Will Digest Any Kind
Of Food When Given the
Proper Assistance.

| We are prone to fall into the error
of singing out some article OF food
and soundly berating the fiend who
first invented the dish. The habit
grows with some people till almost
all food Is put on the black list.
This is all wrong. What is required
Is little assistance with those agen-
cies upon which scientific students
for many years have set their seal
OF approval because they have be-
come absolute facts. Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets for all stomach dis
orders are recognized; they have a
hne record; they are rated reliable,
dependable and worthy of confidence
Just as the president of a big bank
puts his o. X. on a depositor's check.
And so you cap eat what you want,
whatever you like, knowing well that
should indigestion, sour risings, gas
formations, lamentations or any
other stomach distress arise, Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets in few mo-
ments will put you right
Coated tongue, bad breath, heart
burn, belching, flatulency, bloat,-all
the symptoms of digestive troubles
disappear quickly when these tab
lets are used They are not a cure
for anything but dyspepsia and kin
dred complaints. But they have
brought relief to more sufferers from

Mr. Matthews followed Mr.. Cruc,
in most interesting speech, il
which he endorsed the Cornish Or.

clared himself real friend to thai
institution. He stated that he haC
Inspected every part of the institu-
tion and found everything in the very
best condition.
w S. Wolverton spoke very inter
cstingly regarding the beginning OF
the building and the final and great
success of the work. He assured
the people of that locality that they
were expected to manifest great
interest in that institution. which
had been so conservatively conducted
to the greatest possible success.
Judge Spradlin related a most in
tersting account of his acquaintance
with the builder of the institution.
He told how he had watch his con-
duct, his struggle to overcome oppo-
stion, and to make sure of success.
That the success had come gradually
and continually and success was
simply amazing to all the people of
that section. "He that looks after
the needs of homeless, dependent
orphan children is the greatest man
on earth" declared Judge Spradlin.
Nothing has been able to discour-
age this man, he has gone on and on
and has surmounted and passed clear
beyond the obstacles that discourage
and cause failure to come to most
men. But he has not borne all the
burden alone. His dear wife. Mrs
Ellen Harris, has done her part, and
must share full portion of the
credit"
Mr. Cruce was most warmly greeted
by the citizens of that section, who
had been waiting most anXfously TO
hear the great man speak, who had
so highly honored the office of chief
executive of the state. 1t is little
to say that his speech was most
gladly received, since there has been
extensive and favorable comment
upon him, both as man and as gov
ernor,
No gentlemen were ever more well

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable. For
a great many years doctors pronounced
it a local disease and prescribed local
remedies and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven Catar-
rah to be constitutional disease and
therefore requires constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufac-
tured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo,
Ohio, is the only Constitutional cure on
the market. 1t is taken internally. 1t
acts directly on the blood and mucous

 A THRIFTY SOUL Baron Manager Is Careful With Coin of Million
 aire Boss

While Molesworth has been dubbed the willing spender of Rick Wood wards healthy roll, glance at the personnel of the Barons who are In the throes of their worst slump this season, will convince one that Moles- worth's eye for young talent Is re- sponsible for the success of the Bar ons instead of Woodward's shekels.
 The Barons' boss, who has not fin ished lower than third in five years, is a believer in youngsters from the bushes. Accordingly every year, he yanks a squad from the minors. Cap tain Roy Ellam was drafted from Con- nellsville in the Ohio and Pennsylvania league in 1909 at cost of $500. Danny Clark, the second sacker, was gained without cost from the Gadsden club in the Georgia Alabama league. Bill Lind say, the third sacker, was signed as q free agent The former Pelican boasts of a batting average over the 300 mark at the present time. In the outfield Cecil Coombs, the star utility player, was drafted from Bay City in the Southern Michigan league last season while Jimmy Magee was procured via the drafts from the New England cir cult in 1913. Jack Wallace, the young catcher, was secured as a free agent and bought for transportation.
 Of the pitchers, Johnson was pur- chased by draft from the Wisconsin State league for $500 in 1913, while Black and Grimes were gained for $400 on waivers. But yet Rick Woodward, the millionaire owner of the Barons is dubbed the "spendthrift of the South ern" for his extravagant outlay of cash for players.

THE PASSING SHOW

The latest rumored successor to Bill Schwartz, Vol manager, who has ten dered his resignation to President Shropshire to become effective at the close of the present season, is Captain Roy Ellam. The rumor is based on good grounds and according 10 the scribes the Vol managerial berth rests between Charley Frank and Roy El- lam.
 Ellam has had years of experience and his aid to the Barons in their pen nant fight for the last three years has been invaluable. Roy is well liked by all of the Barons and a more pop ular player about the circuit cannot be found.
 Schwartz has proven favorite with the Nashville fans, and his departure is regretted. Either Frank or Ellam would make the Vols an ideal manager Although "Cholley' has had more eX- perience than Captain Roy, the latters popularity will make him a distinct favorite with the players and fans.
 
 The little row over in Chattanooga Monday netted the Southern league $50, Eddie Mcdonald and Rivington Bisland contributing S90 each, while Dick Kaufman was fined $l0. "Bissy" also drew a four-days' suspension. The affair was one of the first that Eddie Mcdonald has ever mixed in since his appearance in the local circuit.
 After making a sensational spurt, winning 15 of the IS games played, the Braves have suffered a serious slump. Stallings had his boys going fine and then something happened that stopped his race for the gonfalon. However, the champions are expected to start new drive and soon arrive at their des tination-the top.

ROY ELLAM MAY SUCCEED BILL
 AS VOLUNTEER PILOT

News comes from Nashville that Roy Ellam and not Charlie Frank is being sroomed to succeed Bill Schwartz as manager of the Nashville Vols. Ac- cording to these reports Ellam has been offered the job and it lies with him to say whether he will leave the service of the Barons next spring and make his debut in managerial robes )r not.
 Friends of Frank are still claiming that he is slated to take over the Nashville club, but the probability is that Ellam is the choice. The Baron captain, while not so experienced as the eX-Pelican boss, is ideally suited for a managerial position and undoubt- endly will make the Vols an excellent pilot in case he casts his lot with them.
 Ellam is young in years, being still in the twenties, but he is a veteran Ill point of experience. For several years he has been one of the premier shortstops in the Southern league and as a fielder is without equal in the

 The scribes in Little Rock blast forth with the statement that the Travellers had ruined the Barons pennant hopes. The 3arons, however. are too game bunch to fall for little losing streak. Watch them from now on.
 The Barons return from their dlsas- trous road trip today, and open with the leading Pelicans. The Barons are exactly five and a half games behind the leaders. With three straight wins the local prodegies will be back in striking distance of the top. Dicl1ie Robertson is secheduled to open up the series and a good start will mean a lot.
 After the Pelican series. the Barons move to Mobile for three battles and thence home to meet the Lookouts. Following the Lookouts, every team In the circuit appears on the local soil except the Pels. The Barons will have a great opportunity and they will sure ly grasp it. F. J. B.
