OFFICERS CLEAN UP Il PAS0 ROBBERS ONE MAKES CONFESSION He with Six Others Implicated by Doc" LemmOns are All Under
 Arrest at Searcy

Searcy, Feb. 21-D. F. ("Doc") Lemmons, arrested in connection with the Fl Paso Bank robbery, yesterday confessed in the court of Justice w E. Harlan that he was a member of the band of seven highwaymen who on February 12, held up Cashier Rob. ert E. Kent and at the point of re- volvers, forced him to turn over $1,764.86 of the banks funds. The other six prisoners, Sid, John, Ar thur and Jim Quattlebaum, Jim Stone and Ellis Jenkins waived a preliminary examination, and were bound over to the grand jury.
 Cashier Kent was the first witness to testify when John Quattlebaum was arraigned. He positively identi- fled the prisoner as the one who GOV cred him with revolver.
 Lemmons was the next witness. He admitted his guilt, duplicating the six others. He said John Quattle- baum was the leader of the band, and that he and John entered the bank and held up the cashier, both wearing false mustaches. He testified that John visited him at his home in Gle burne county, stating he was a cattle buyer, and suggested that they rob the Fl Paso bank, assuring the wit ness he could handle the courts all right if they were apprehended. He refused at first, but upon the second invitation, he decided to assist in the job.
 The robbery was scheduled for 10 o'clock Saturday morning, but on ac- count of the failure of the false mus tache to arrive. it was postponed until Monday. The party met at the home of John Quattlebaum on Friday and planned the robbery. Jenkins and Sid Quattlebaum were to entertain people who attempted to enter the bank while the robbery was in prog ress, Lemmons said, while the others were to do the work.
 Immediately after the robbery, Lemmons and John drove to the mountain where the money was di- vided, said the witness. His share was $544.60. This was turned over to the officers by Lemmons.
 Lemmons testified that he confess ed voluntarily, believing the court would give him a lighter sentence.
 It required week for the officers to apprehend all of the robbers. Those who effected the captures were Sheriff T. c. Plant of White county, Constable J. w. Hall, Deputies Bert Campbell and Andrew Sellers; De- tective M. w. Williams, manager of the Burns agency at Memphis, rep resenting the American Bankers As sociation, of which the robbed bank was a member; Deputy Luther Smith of Fl Paso and former Constable Robert M. King of Conway, who car ried his bloodhounds to the scene.

Cheap and Good Foods.

Some of the best foods are the cheap
est. There are carrots, satisfy, par
ships, lettuce and such stuff. Carrots
have the rarest combination Of food
qualities of anything that grows. 1t is
so healthful that it is said steady
diet of it will cure many distempers.
Parsnips are cheap, good, wholesome.
Anybody who doesn't like the taste of
a parsnip has his palate put in wrong.
Lettuce is cheap, and lettuce sand
witch is royal food. Any one who
starves while these things are on the
market, to be bought for few cents,
has not much Of claim on life. There
is more health in them than in porter
house steaks or oyster cocktails. Some
people affect to think they are low
brow food, but it might be said in re-
tort that they are low browed people
who think so.-Columbus co. State

Hibernation.

In the state known as Information
respiration practically ceases. Diges-
ton seems to follow respiration, and
the waste of tissue is reduced to the
smallest possible limit, the circulation
in the meantime being only just suffi'
Gent to sustain life. 1t has been as"
certained that animals can endure the
loss of tissue until it amounts to 40 per
cent of their normal weight. Should
the weight be reduced beyond that linn
it the result is death. 1t is the stored
up fat within the body of the hibernat-
ing creatures that sustains them dur
ing the many months of cold weather.

Three Servian Words.

Dobra is the general word of assent
in Servia. If doughnut is good-and
Serbs make delectable dOughnuts in
tin pans over camp fires-it is dobra.
A good looking girl is dobra, and if
she is very good looking she is dobra-
dobra. A good speech or lucky gen
eral or a pleasant summer or the word
to charge are all dObra.
One can go anywhere in Servia if one
is but letter perfect in dobra and mai
mo, which latter is the general mega,
tive. One should also be able to say
"Hydyr' with great force and convic-
ton. That is the slang for hurry"
And it is needed, for these Balkan peo-
pies do not like to hurry unless killing
is somewhere involved. Ones CONVEX
sation might lack continuity perhaps,
but if supplemented by assorted rubs
and pattings one need never miss bed
or a meal where a Serb camp fire
shines.-Herbert Corey in Saturday
Evening Post.

Watches and Water.

When person falls overheard or
gets a ducking in any other way he at
once has trouble with his watch, un-
less, Of course, it happens that> he be
not wearing it. If he is wise he will
send it at once to matchmaker.
What the latter can do to it depends
upon the extent of the wetting and
the length Of time that has elapsed
since the immersion.
The jewelers. Circular says the re-
pairer will take the watch entirely
apart. If there be water still notice
able he will place all the parts in al
cohol and then clean them If they
be dry he will put all ordinary steel
parts inebenzine and all plates, bridges
and brass parts in a solution Of alkali
and soap.
A repairer receiving watch several
days after it's wetting will immerse it
in coal OIL Then he will decide wheth-
er it will be less expensive to clean
the works or to replace them with a
new movement.

Another Great Mountain Range
Conquered by Electricity

The mighty Rockies, the Belts and
the Bitter Roots have bowed their
lofty heads before the onward prog
ress of men. The limitless energy of
their tumbling cataracts have been har-
messed to furnish power for the giant
electric locomotives that haul the
trains of the Milwaukee Road" across
their rugged slopes.
And now another great mountain
range-the snow capped Cascades in
Washington has felt the hand of the
conqueror. The work of electrifying
the I'll miles of line through this range
is we'll under way. When completed
the milwaukee" will have 651 miles
of its main transcontinental line under
electrical operation.
Mountain travel is given new charm
mo smudge of smoke paints its black
line across the snow-clad vistas-travel
is smooth, clean, silent.
When next you journey to Butte,
Spokane, Seattle, Tacoma, Portland
and other Pacific Northwest cities
travel the electric way-via the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & ST. Paul Railway.

formation regarding this wonderful
achievement apply to Local Agent of

WHY 1T SUCCEEDS.
Because tits For One Thing Only,
and EdgertOn People Appreciate It.

Nothing can be good for everything.
Doing one thing we'll brings success.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for one thing
only.
For weak or disordered kidneys.
Here is reliable evidence of their
worth.
Mrs. George Hammes, 1908 Ravine
St., GAINESVILLE, Wis, says: Il began
to notice that my kidneys were getting
in bad shape. The first symptoms were
severe backaches and pains across my
hips. Then l had headaches and dizzy
spells, and was nervous and felt mis-
cradle. knew that my kidneys were
causing this trouble, so I used Doan's
Kidney Pills. 1t took only few boxes
to cure me. Doan's Kidney Pills put
my kidneys in fine shape and the dizzy
and nervous spells left me, together
with the pains in my back and head. "
