ip of 15,00a,00O is the
 great Xmas Drive of the
 Cross to begin Dec. 17th
 ecember 24th. The present
 nbership Is 5000 900. By q stren- Jus campaign which contemplates the gigantic task of a house to house can vass all over the United States as near. that as possible, it is hoped to get |10,000,000 new members. To attain this end, every state is to be thorough ly organized through the local Red Cross Chapters and where there are no chapters, they will be organized wherever possible D. H. Gantrell was recently appointed State Chairman for Arkansas, with headquarters at 314 West Markham street, Little Rock, by whom the work throughout the State will be directed.
 In about 5oec6unties there are local chapters and where there is none, one or more will be organized. Each of tn Chapter Chairman will be asked tol appoint a captain for each ward and township in his county. Each chapter Twill appoint solicitors in sufficient mum Der to make house to house canvass of the territory, and if possible, see each householder and every person, because there is no limit of aac or sex in getting new members.
 There are two kinds of membership, one entailing only the $1 dues, and the other $2, which carries with it sub- scription to the Red Cross Magazine. The object is to make the soldiers feel that the whole nation is backing htem up. and to meet the German propagan= da, which the Germans are so assi= duously cultivating.
 Mr. E. O. Fitzpatrick, Secretary of the local chapter, has been appointed Campaign Manager. and is now get chg his organization perfected and saaipped 50 aa to begin work on Dec. t4Ezth. All the captains of townships and wards as well as solicitors, arc asked to lay aside all their other work, as far aspossible and devote their energies to this patriotic move- men8. All are asked to give their services to the cause, without rernu- neration, as t is purely patriotic movement. There is no fund to rais- ed except such as is included in the trifing annual dues. The objective in Hot Spring County is to raise a membership of 1000.

FARMERS WILL
UNITE WITH
LABOR UNIONS
Down With Profiteers Says
President of the Farmers
League.

BUFFALO. n. Y. Nov. ia pledge
from the farmers to join hands with
union labor to help win the war was
given at today's session of the Ameri-
Townley. president of the Farmers
Nonpartisan league and L. v. Strayer.
second vice president Of the National
Farmers congress.
THE farmers realize" MT Strayer
said. "the great responsibility that
rests upon them in this great world
crisis. When the liberties for which
our forefathers fought are in danger
it is important for we workers in the
cities and in the fields to understand
one another. The fallacy that we are
opposed to you and you to us should
be corrected"
President Townley urged the feder
alton to cooperate in putting field and
factory war products on the market at
lower prices and in greater quantities.
Let the two great classes Of pro
ducers join hands behind the govern
ment in this war;" he said. LET us
put down the profiteer. We would
find in a surprisingly short time that
our people at home will be better and
more economically fed, our forces at
the front better and more economical
ly equipped"
In regard to the political aspect Mr.
Townley said: Remember that this
would be no mean coalition. The far
mers of this country represent 81 per
cent, labor 25 percent of the nations
voting strength

UNCONSCIOUS
George Gieser, Wisconsin Man,
Lies in Deserted House 90
Hours After Being Robbed.

After lying unconscious for ss
hours in a deserted house in the
hollow" in the south end Of the city,
George Gieser, of Lacrosse, Wis, a
farm laborer, was picked up by Chief
of Police Albert Hurst late last
ing and taken to the local police sta
ton. This morning he was taken to a
choral poisoning.
Closer recovered CONSEQUENCES ear
ly this morning in the police station,
and declared that he had been in an
unconscious condition since last
Monday afternoon.
Picked up Acquaintance.
According to the story he told Chief
Hurst this morning, Closer, who has
been working on farms In the north
west for the past few years, picked
up an acquaintance with a stranger,
whose name he does not remember,
In 9 e side pool room.
h stranger offered to get him a
drink Of whiskey on this side Of the
river, and left the pool room for the
purpose Of obtaining the liquor. A
short time later he returned, and both
crossed the DeMers avenue bridge to
the East Side. In an alley of DeMers

started to walk towards Minnesota
Point, but. after walking only a block,
Gieser declares he lost all conscious
ness, and Is unable to remember
what happened from that time, until
he regained consciousness in the sta

Was Nearly Frozen.
The deserted building in which
Gieser was found has been vacant for
several years, and most of the win
dows and doors have been broken
down. When discovered by Chief
Hurst last evening, he was nearly
frozen to death.
A passerby. hearing the means of
the poisoned man in the deserted
building notified the authorities which
resulted in the discovery.

the motive for the crime, as Gieser de-
clares he had $50 in his possession
when he met the stranger. When
searched at the police station last
evening, his pockets were empty. It is
thought that he was guided % the de-
serted house, where he was robbed
