CONSTANTINE AND
 SON LEAVE ATHENS
Former Queen and Foreign Ad- wiser Completed Party-En- tente Forces Have Been Land ed at Greek Ports.

Athens, June 12, via London, June 14.-Former King Constantine left Athens late today to embark on British warship.
 Constantine left the city in a motor car accompanied by the ofrmer queen and crown prince and other members of the family. Professor Georgies Straits, former adviser of the Greek foreign office, went with Constantine as his secretary.
 Entente forces are now landing at the Piraeus and Castella. Some of the troops are occupying the heights near Phalerum Bay, while others are marching to Athens.
 High Commissioner Jannaft in a letter to Premier Zaimes said that for reasons of health it was impossi- ble to keep the entente troops and horses aboard the transports and therefore he had ordered them to land. The troops, Mir. Jannart said, would remain ashore pending their return shortly to resume the struggle against "Greece's traditional foes"
 The proclamation of former King Constantine, announcing his abdica- tion, was posted throughout the streets today. It says:
 "Obeying the necessity of fulfilling my duty toward Greece, am depart ing from my beloved country with the heir to teh throne and am leaving my son, Alexander, my crown. beg you to accept my decision with calm ness, as the slightest incident may lead to a great catastrophe"

VIII. CUT IO.MILE
 CANAL IN ARKANSAS
Memphis Contractors Will Oper- ate Dredges to Drain 71,000 Acres in LOnOke COunty-To Start Work Soon.

Memphis. June 15.-One of the largest drainage contracts of the year was awarded yesterday by Bayou Meto Drainage District No. at Lo- noke. Ark, to R. H. and G. R. McWil- Hams of Memphis to cut 70 miles of canals, which will drain n, 1000 acres in Lonoke county.
 Upon his return from Lonoke last night, R. H. McWilliams announced that two dipper dredges will be put to work at once to cut the canals. AL though large crews will be worked constantly, the huge ditches will not be finished for three years.
 The canals will be cut the full length of Lonoke county and will be located south and west of Lonoke. The land to be reclaimed is excep- tionally fertile, and the owners are anxious to put it into cultivation.
 Bonds to the amount of S375,000 have been authorized and will be of fered for sale within the next few weeks. The actual cost will be less than that amount.
 Mir. McWilliams' bid was $344,000, which was about $20,000 below the enxt lowest bid. The contract was awarded on the basis of 10 cents per cubic yard for moving the dirt and SIP per acre for clearing the land It is estimated that 3,046,000 cubic yards of dirt will be moved in cutting the two canals.
 The commissioners of Bayou Meto Drainage District No. of Lonoke are T. NJ. Fletcher, T. c. Trimble and M. l. s. Cox. M. Y. Smith is the engi- neer in charge. Ford & McCrea of Little Rock are the consulting engi- neers, and Chapline & Baird of Lon oke are the attorneys.

PRESCOTT MAY GET
 co. F FIRST ARK.
We Are Assured of it if Number of Men Can Be Secured Here to Bring the Company up to War Strength.

One of the most patriotic gather ings ever held in the city was at the court house yesterday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock when meeting was called for the purpose of encouraging recruiting in the county and the oc- casion was made more touching by the presence of Ed C. Nuts band which played patriotic airs between speeches.
 As aforesaid the prime object of the meeting was to see if enough men could not be enlisted in Nevada coun- ty to bring Company F, First Arkan- sas Infantry up to war strength. This company's headquarters have been stationed at Hope but if the necessary number of recruits can be secured here it is the intention of Adjutant General England to move the headquarters here after the war. The captain of the company, S. B. Scott, is resident of Prescott and we should have the company here by all means.
 A number of splendid addresses were made at the meeting yesterday among which were Hon. w. V. Tomp- kins who introduced the speakers; Lieutenant Pat Murphy, chaplain of the Third Arkansas Infantry, who left the ministry to join the colors. He said he did not leave his religion behind him and that he would take it with him to hte trenches. His re- mark that if God was with the kaiser now, the devil would be with him when Uncle Sam got over there, caused prolonged applause. It is a shame, he said, for the American peo- pie to have to be begged to do their duty in this world fight for liberty. He fercely denounced the man who stands back and says that he did not start this war and will not help end it; his time will come in due time.
 Dr. John c. Williams was called on to make a short talk and he took the war up from biblical standpoint and proved that it was our duty to all mankind to take part in the con- flict, w. w. Trimmer, a German by descent, but an American to the core who resides on Prescott route 2, made short but pointed talk to the young men mostly and what he said was as effective as if spoken by the President himself, and be it said to his credit he is one of the truest Americans to be found. Other equally interesting and patriotic talks were made by Dexter Bush, Major Bradford of the 2nd Arkansas Infantry and Hon. Thos. C. McRae, all of whom impressed upon us the necessity of joining in this fight to win.

SUCCESS OF LIBERTY
 LOAN SEEMS ASSURED
Indicated Subscriptions Will Go Well Beyond Mark-Officials Receive Good News From All Sections.

Washington, June 14.-The Liberty loan campaign entered the home stretch today with every indication that the tremendous thirtieth day drive throughout the nation would result in going well beyond the $2,- 000,000,000 goal.
 From coast to coast the story that poured into the treasury all day was the same, a story of a whirlwind fin ish. Telegrams told of tolling bells and shrieking whistles across the continent, marking the last day of the campaign, of redoubled efforts by the many agencies at work for the loans success, of enthusiasm at it's highest pitch, of long waiting lines of subscribers in thousands of banks in every state of the Union.
 The last 24 hours work is going to show big in the final count, according to these reports. Before noon tomor- row officials hope every man in the country who can subscribe will have done so. At the closing hour tonight there was no telling where the total might lead, no basis for forecasting the final figures.
 It seemed certain, however, that at least 2,500,000 persons will have sub- scribed before the books are closed at noon tomorrow. Measuring the total by the number of Liberty loan but tons which have gone out from head quarters, the number of subscribers should exceed 3,000,0OO. New York, Philadelphia and Boston reserve dis tricts alone have received-and it is believed have placed a high percent age of them-2, ,5OO, 900 of the but tons. More than 100000 will have been distributed before the three chief button factories of the country, working night and day, catch up with their orders several days hence.
 New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Cleveland, Chicago, St. Louis and Kansas City are the big districts from which will come the great bulk of subscriptions. There the total num- Der of buttons distributed approxi- mated 3,500.OOO New York has taken 100000 and estimates that it will furnish 100000 subscribers. Phila- delphia and Boston have taken more than 500,000 each. The Cleveland dis trict has received 420,00O, Chicago 360,000, St. Louis, Kansas City and Richmond 10000 each. To San Fran cisco 265,000 have been sent. From several of the districts hurry calls have been received for more.
