FORESTRY men
TO GET GOATS
OF KAHG0LANE
-Four Hundred Wild Ones Will
Be Taken Next Week in
Drive on Little Island

Four hundred wild coats on the isl.
and OF Kahoolawe are TO be disposed
this week by Territorial Forester
c. s. Judd and the members OF the
forestry commission. who will leave on
Wednesday for what promises TO be
one Of the biggest goat-hunting expe-
dltions ever staged in the islands.
Kahoolawe island, which lies on the
lee side OF Maui, is all part of the
territorial forest reserve, but goats
that have run wild upon 1t for many
years are fast running the vegetation.
In their characteristic manner of
thorough eating they have cropped
the heritage so close that roots and
stems alike have been molested. Then
the strong trade winds sweeping down
upon the bare hilltops have finished
the job. tearing up the soil and strip
ping it bare of growth.
Thus the island has been barred OF
vegetation in many portions, and has
reached condition where the forest
ry commission has thought it neces.
sary to take active steps to save what
portions are left,
I'VE will begin, at the northern end
of the island . Forester Judd explains,
land will then work toward the
south, driving the lgoats before us
much as jack rabbits are driven in the
big Jobs of that sort 10 the West.
sour object will be to get the goats
into pens, but Of course many OF them
will break and run during the driving
process and will then have to, be TAX
en- WITH rifles. 1t is estimated that
there are about 400 goats on the lit
tie island"
Commissioners a. l.. c. Atkinson
and Arthur Rice will accompany the
territorial forester, and Atkinson will
take band Of men along to aid in the
big drive. The party is due here
again on May 16.

Fine was the word with which

waiting to see what Congress is going
to do with the question. r.. :
The question of Philippine indie

news of continuation of the tariff

Shippers there face the difficulty,
however, of getting their goods car

scarcity of boats. presume the same
condition Applies here. The sugar
business, and in fact all of the bust

AS to the japanese question, the
general would venture no statement,
merely that "a whole lot of Japanese
excitement seems 10 be idle chatter
He likewise refrained from expressing
any opinion as to whether or not the
Filipinos should have their indepen-

Gen Barry mas been in the Philip

WHY Tolerate lCataI1h?

Youhaye noticed mo doubt. that any
cold aggrayates nasalcatarrh, and the
flow of mucous amazes you that such
Objectionable matter could find lodg-
ment in your head. To ignore this
catarrh when the cold subsidies is
wrong because it continues to slowly
injure the delicate Innings of the nasal
passages and clog them up.
To correct catarrh, cleanse, the nos
trils frequently with solution of warm
water and salt, insert vaseline on re-
firing, and take spoonful of SCOTS
Emulsion after meals for one month.
SCOTS acts through the blood to feed
the tissues, and contains soothing
glycerine to check the inflammation
and heal the sensitive membranes.
SCOTS is pleasant to take.

BACK FROM COLD COLORADO.
Harry P. Michel Glad to Get Back in Pine Bluff from Bleak Prairies.

Harry P. Michel returned Sunday morning from. 3 business trip to Yuma, Colorado, convinced that the slogan used to advertise tbat state should be Gold Colorado" A 22-mile auto drive over the prairie left MT. Michel with the determination to get back to Pine Bluff as soon as possi- ble. That he followed this determi- nation is evidenced by the fact that be left here last Tuesday, spent two days in Kansas City, and was back here Sunday morning. MT. Michel can't understand why people will fight for existence in such a country when they have the opportunity of obtaining prosperity, comfort and happiness in the Pine Bluff country
 Their land is no better, the rrairies are bleak, they suffer from cold for nearly half the year, and they must bring in by rail their wood and coal, of which there was precious little when I was there. When I told them about conditions here, they'd hardly believe me. Those who did evinced determination to come to Arkansas as soon as they can sell cut in that country" said MT. Michel, who believes that all idle lands here, adaptable to agriculture, could be sold quickly if this section was prop crly advertised. -.~

Heir to Hoorah" is one of the sweet est, cleanest and best comedies ever shown in this city.
ORPHEO THEATRE.

"Martha's Vindication," appearing
 at the Orpheo theatre tomorrow, is a
 motion picture story of vital theme, new material, admirable structure, ar tistic treatment and interpreted by a cluster of stars. That is saying a great deal, but it comes over like a refreshing draught of cool water, sparkling and invigorating, in com parison with a lot of stale beer of adaptation from exhausted sources. While all the story elements are pres- ent, there is strong undercurrent of protest against religious bigotry, par ticularly that of organizations which arrogate to themselves the privilege of making a superficial examination of the lives of members and of bringing about social destruction where social helpfulness would be more in accord with the spirit of Christianity. This IS popular motif just now, particular ly in the smaller towns, hence "Mar- tha's Vindication" will meet with warm approval among big-hearted and magnanimous American people thru out the land. The story is far from being an easy one to tell, but it's struc- ture is without blemish, and the spark ling subtitles help every inch of the way. The interpretation of Norma Talmage, Seena Owen, Ralph Lewis. Fully Marshall and Josephine Crowell crowns one of the most successful plays of it's kind ever shown on the screen.

BEST THEATRE.

-"The Heir to the Hoorah," j" Lasky-P Paramount feature, is best de-
 scribed in the words of the critic, Thomas c. Kennedy, who says: The
 picturegoer who is in search of good
 entertainment will make no more mis- take in visiting the theatre showing Lasky's picturization of "The Heir to the Hoorah" than did that producing organization in selecting this comedy by Paul Armstrong for the motion pie ture presentation. "The Heir to Hoor- ah" is certainly a good screen com- edy. It provokes laughter and never stops entertaining. The play is good and the production and acting are even better than the play. Thomas Meig- han and Anita King head one of the most uniformly effective casts ever presented by the Lasky company. MT. Meighan and Miss King are excellent and so are all the other players who appear in the picture. Edythe Chap man, Horace B. Carpenter, Charities Ogle, Ernest Joy and Joane Woodbury are included in the cast, Carpenter and Ogle as Bud and Bill respectively fit into the picture splendidly. We wish to go on record as stating that "The
