Altho no confirmation has been re-

The only thing certain in regard to

Capacity Of Stadium Taxed.
The football elevens of Harvard and
Yale played their annual contest here
today before nearly $4,000 spectators.
;; The huge stadium had been made ell
liptical by the addition of temporary
stands at the open end, and long be-
fore the teams lined up every available
foot Of space was packed with cheer
ing persons.
At the entrances to the field were
hundreds Of prospective spectators
who had failed to buy advance tickets
and spectators found ready sale of
seats. pairs bringing from $40 to $50.
Weather conditions were not satis-
factory. Heavy gray clouds, driven by
a high cold west wind, cast lights and
shadows from the walls Of the stadium
onto the gridiron.
The field was soggy and severa!
spots were slippery with mud. The
wind blew so fiercely that the goal
post at the entrance rocked in the
gale and workmen had to pound down
the earth around the supports. There
was a big advantage to the team hav-
ing the west goal.
Harvard Favored by Wind.
First period: Harvard won the toss
and chose the favored west goal.
Guernsey, after the wind had twice
blown the ball off the "tee," kicked to
the 10-yard line. Mahan promptly
punted into Yale territory, and after
gaining seven yards on two attempts,
Guernsey returned, his punt going to
Harvard 12-yard mark. Mahan kicked
again.
Yale began rushing from It's 43-yarC
mark. Guernsey was thrown without
gain, but Wilson went around the
Crimson right to Harvard's 20-yard
line. Yale then lost the ball on fum-
BILE. and Mahan Immediately punted.
Bingham muffed the punt, which the
wind blew erratically. and Hart, grab
bing the ball, ran thirty-three yards
for touchdown. Mahan missed goal,

King ran the second KICKOFF back to
his 35-yard line. Three tries made
less than five yards and Mahan punt-
ed. Yale attacked from her 33-yard
mark but failed to gain. A poor pass
went over Guernsey's head to the 20
yard mark. and then Guernsey punted
to mid-neld. From the Harvard 4S.
yard mark, King. in two tries. made
seven yards. and on q delayed pass
broke thru center for first down. The
Same play netted Mahan nine yards

Walden replaced Sheldon.
Another trick sent King to Yale's
10-yard mark. Guernsey hurt his right
arm tackling the runner and Chatfleld-

Mahan made the 3-yard line on q fake
kick. King barely gained at center.

HEALTH Don't Endanger if With
 CaIomeI

It is generally agreed by ex- perts in this country and Eu- rope that calomel has a very violent effect on the system. This accounts for the familiar disagreeable feeling accom- panying a dose and the weak ened condition following it.
 Liv-ver-lax is a harmless veg etable compound, that is mild, but effective substitute for cal omel. It has all the effective ness, but not the effect, of cal omel. It's splendid value has brought it into such wide use that in some states it has al- most entirely replaced calo- mel.
 Just try Liv-ver-lax once,a ,and you'll never use calomel again. Insist on the genuine, bearing the likeness and signature of L. K. Grigsby, which is guar anteed to give satisfaction or money refunded. For sale by Newark Drug Go.

WHY WE ARE GREAT

America is a great country, and much of that greatness is due to the ability and fearless ness of the people in think ing and acting for themselves.
 We elect our chief officers for two to four years, and if they don't suit us we kick them out at the end of their terms.
 We have a habit of frankly and insistently telling our pub- lie servants what We expect of them, and we unblushingly give them to understand that ifthey do no make good we will have no further use for them.
 Nearly everybody works in this country, and drones are the isolated exceptions.
 We have no kings or emper- ors, or dukes or counts, for in this country every man is a king in his own right, with more brains than half the crowned heads of Europe.
 Yes, America is a great country, and it will always be great so long as we reverence brain and brawn instead of lordlings and tarnished crowns

Ruddell, July 20.-H. E.

After making a careful study of the deposits, he pronounced them as being the largest and best in the United States, and if the rail- roads will concede the neces- sary freight rate it is quite probable that large quarries will be opened in this vicinity.

FIGURES SHOW VALUE OF DIVERSIFIED FARMING
Grain Crop This Year Exceeds in Value the Most Valuable Cotton Crop Ever Raised.

The grain crop of the South this year will exceed in value by several hundred million dollars the total of the most valuable cotton crop ever pro- duced by the South.
 This remarkable fact is due to an increase in grain pro- duction throughout the South, which will demonstrate what this section is capable of doing in the development of diversi- fled farming. According to the forecast of grain productionf for the country, based on eondi- tions July 1, the production of grain in the Southern States for this year will be l ,540, 0,000,- GOO bushels, or a gain of 286,- O00,000 bushels over lastyear. If to the figures covering wheat corn and oats we properly add the rice crop of 30,000,000 bushels, and as this years rice crop exceeds by 6,000,000 bushels last years we would have a total increase of grain of 292,000.000 bushels.
 This phenomenal situation is all the more impressive when taken in connection with the grain crop of the entire eoun- try.
 The estimated yield for the country for the year, including rice, is 5.414,000,000 bushels, or an increase of 490, ,000, 1000 bushels over 1914. Out of this total gain, 92.000. .000 bushels or nearly 50 per cent, is due to the increase in the South. The gain in the south will be nearly 23 per cent over last year as compared with only 512 per cent for the balance of the country. The actual gain in the South is 94,000.000 bushels greater than the increase inthe balance of the United States. These figures are wonderfully significant of the agricultural possibilities of the South, and this increase in grain, which ty- pifies the increase in foodstuffs generally, will largely offset the adverse situation in cotton. In the South corn demands a much higher figure than in the West, running often from 10 to 20 cents a bushel or more than Western prices. On this basis, therefore, 1t is safe to estimate that the grain crops of the South will represent a gain of at least $250,000,000 over last years figures.
 The gain by States shows a splendid steady expansion throughout the entire South, and for wheat, corn and oats combined as follows.

DOUBLE KILLING
 NEAR CONWAY
FAMILY FEUD RESULT OF
 FORCED MARRIAGE
F Father-in-Law Kills Son-in-Law and is Then Slain By the Young Victims Father.

l Oung NlCIlm $ dtner.
 Conway, July 19.-Tom Ac- ton and Virgil Bird, father-in- law and son-in-law, respective Fly, last night were killed in q Ithree-cornered tragedy be- tween the two and Jake Bid, father of Virgil, near Bono, IS miles northwest of Conway.
 Acton and Virgil Bird, were the first combatants, fighting each other with knives, in which Bird was killed. One hour later, Jake Bird, father of Virgil, surprised Acton at the home of Sam Johnson, and Iopeend fire on him with a shot gun, before hisvictim was aware of his danger. Acton fell from his chair lifeless after the first shot.
 Sheriff Bishop was snotified at an early hour this mornging, and Deputy J.L. Summers, with Deputy U. s. Marshall Charley Payne and Dr. G. s. Brown went to the scene. A telephone message from Summers to Bishop this morning stated that Bird offered no resistance to arrest.
 Virgil Bird was completely dlsemboweled by the knife and was without medical attention until Dr. Browns arrival, about six hours after receiving the wound. But sugical aid was useless.
 The trouble to which resi- dents of the section trace last nights affair had is origin in the alleged compulsory marri- age of Virgil Bird to Bertha Acton, daughter of the man killed, about two years ago, and his subsequent alleged mis- treatment and separation from her.
 About one year ago, live stock belonging to Jake Bird got into Acton's field and bad feeling was intensified when Acton drove them out. Nei- ghbos sent for Deputy Charley Payne, whose sister, married Acton's brother, and who was formerly neighbors of the two fmen, and he was able to patch up the trouble. Since then things has been quiet on the surface, according to friends of the men.
 Virgil Bird, after his mar riage to Acton's daughter, liv- ed with her for some time, but afterwards separaed from her. Nelghbors patched up the trou- ble between them and Bird re- turned. It is alleged he mis- treated her, which Acton tried to stop. During Birds absence his wife saved with her parents
 After the first fight Acton is said to have left Bird wounded on the ground and walked to the home of Johnson some dis tance away. Passers-by dis covered Bird, almost lifeless, and with a knife clutched in his hand. When Jake Bird was notified of what had happened he armed himself, and went af- ter Acton. He is alleged to have said that he had done just what he wanted to do and would stand the consequences. He is a tenant farmer and has a family of seven children.
 Acton, the man killed, was a Well-to-do- farmer and the fath- CT of three girls.
