Hundreds of cattle men from Louisiana, Texas, Okla homa, Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennes- see, Alabama, Georgia and Florida are in attendance. Tick eradication and development of delivered agricul- ture were two of the principal sub jects for discussion.
 At the opening session this morning the address of welcome was delivered by Harry D. Wilson, commissioner of agriculture of Georgia. E. K Mid dleton of Pocahontas, Miss, president of the association, then delivered his annual address. Secretary Tait But Ter, of Memphis, Tenn, reported many new members

JAPANESE CELEBRATE
 NEW RUSSIAN TREATY

Tokyo, August 16.-In all big cen ters of Japan public gatherings have been held in celebration of the com pletion of the Russo-Japanese al- liance. These have invariably taken the same form-a reception and ban quet given by the mayor and tele- grams of congratulation to the Jan .anese and Russian governments. In the evening lantern processions were held to give the populace a share in the fun The Russian embassy in Tokyo, a building with many different experiences, has had the unusual sen sation of being repeatedly besieged by cheering crowds roaring out banzais for the czar and the brave Russian army.
 All the demonstrations are of course inspired from above and are of inter est principally as examples of how public opinion" is operated. Busi- ness men, however, are genuinely gla l of the new alliance, as it opens ap valuable concessions in Siberia and Manchuria and also, as they think, gives them leverage to protest against any further army increases, with their corresponding advances in the heavy taxation for military purposes which this country already groans under.

UNEXPECTED CHANGE IN
 PERSONNEL OF BOARD

Little Rock, Aug. 16.-An unex- pected change has been made in the personnel of the State Board of Edu- cation. The terms of two members expired yesterday. J. w. Kuykendall of Fort Smith, was re-appointed, his term to expire Aug. 15, 1922. B. w .Torreyson, secretary to the board and superintendent of secondary educa- tion in the state, was not re-appoint- ed, but W. k. Lemon, president of the Peoples Savings Bank of Little Rock, was appointed to succeed him. Mr. Lemons term will expire in 1923. He was mayor of Little Rock for four years, and for several years was member of the school board. Mr. Tor reyson, former city superintendent of Little Rock and Fort Smith, is one of the best known school men of the state.

SHARK RESPONSIBLE FOR
 HIGH COST OF OCEAN FISH

Washington, Aug. 16.--The shark is blamed for the prevailing high price of fish. The Fish Commission is ad- vised that scarcity of the finny tribe at practically all fish wharves along the Atlantic coast has increased the price in some instances 100 per cent over the figure last summer. Most of the fish at this time of the year is ob- tained from the New Jersey coast, and it is in this region that scores of the man-eating sea demons have been sighted. The sharks it is said have driven the fishes, principally butter fish, bass and trout, away from the fishing grounds.

MANY BATTLES FOUGHT
 IN HOTELS OF ALPS

Berlin, Aug. 16.-The Swiss sum- mer resorts are not deserted, in spite ot the war Some of them even do a fairly good business. Englishmer, frenchmen, Germans, Austrians and few Italians, together with a number of Scandinavians and sprinkling of representatives of other countries, have managed to come to the Alps to spend their vacations, but their num- Der is, of course, much smaller than in time of peace.
 To maintain state of peace among their guests is a hard job for the strictly neutral proprietors of the different hotels. Although they are taking all kinds of precautions, it is almost impossible for them to prevent rows. In some of the hotels large signs have been posted, requesting the guests not to talk about the war, while in others the different nation alities are separated as much as pos sible.
 At meals the French, English and Italians, the Germans, Austrians and Hungarians and the neutrals have their own tables, but this does not prevent numerous clashes. Even the so-called neutrals quarrel among themselves, because their sympathies are either with the entente or with the central powers.
 The proprietor of one large hotel had buttons made with the inscrip tion: Don't talk war to me-" but the majority of his guests refused to wear them and the few who did soon threw them away, because they found themselves isolated Nobody would talk to them at all.
 The most heated verbal battles are always fought by the French Swiss and the German Swiss. The German and English seldom clash; they sim ply ignore each other.

CLAY WORK FRS ADOPT
 NEW STRIKE METHODS

Brazil, Ind, Aug. 16.-Onc thous- and clay workers are conducting one of the most unusual strikes on record here, They allowed an injunction to be taken against them in federal court preventing pickets from inter- fering with strike breakers, or pre- venting them from using violence, saying they would not fight the in- junction because they did not want to violate the law,
 Instead of picketing the plants, the strikers marched past the plants quietly bearing banners reading. Come with Us, we will protect you" Seven strike-breakers quit work after the first parade. Governor Ralston addressed the strikers at a meeting, compimented them on the peaceful manner in which they are conducting the strike.
