TOURIST TRAVEL TO NORTH FALLS
 OFF BIG PERCENT.
Decrease Is Offset by a Larue Number Who Made Trips for Reasons
 of Business.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. As a result of the entry of the United States into the European war, tour ist travel to Alaska during the sum- mer months fell somewhat below the high records of previous years. This decrease was more than off set. however, by the increase in the number of ordinary passengers, ac- cording to statistics just compiled by the Pacific Steamship Company.
 Officials of the company's traffic department declare that the num- Der of persons who travelled for purely business reasons had been unprecedented. This class includes commercial salesmen and buyers and persons engaged in fishing, mining or other industries in Alas ka. The number of resident Alas kans who have made trips back and forth has also been exceedingly heavy.
 This would seem to indicate a healthy business condition in Alas ka despite the slump in gold mine operation said R. J. Ringwood, vice president of the company" Most of the people are awakening to the fact that great wealth lies in min, ing her industrial metals such as copper and in her coal and timber resources and her great fishing in dustry. These are potential sources

(HerIln papers please copy.)
A few YearS ago.

"A few years ago, while watching parade in Boston in which the Stars and Stripes were conspicuous, fair foreigner with strong anti-American proclivities turned to companion and, com menting on the display, pettishly remarked:
 That American flag makes me sick. It looks just like piece of cherckerberry candy"
 Senator Lodge, who was standing near by, overheard the remark and, turning to the young lady, said:
 "Yes, miss, it does And it makes every one sick who tries to lick it.'

THE FIRE RAN AWAY.

Quite an exiciting time resulted Thursday night last when a Frisco freight caboose, on a north bound train caught fire and was destroyed When the fire was discovered, the burning car was between a refrig- orator car and a loaded coal car which because of a broken drawhead had been attached to the rear end of the train. To save the refrigerator car, the train crew cut the caboose loose and the weight of the coal car imme- dlately started the two cars south down grade. A brakeman opened the main line switch to avoid wreck and the burning ear flew down the track at lively gain, stopping when the hill two miles south was reached No. 3, the south bound passenger train, was in the yard here and the engine was sent in pursuit of the truant fire The crew managed to make connection and pulled 1t back to town where the fire boys were able to make a eonnec- tion with fire plug and save at least the wheels of the aforesaid caboose. The fire alarm was given by the screams of the engine whistles, but the location of the fire was puzzle to the town people, who from a distance could see the flames but could not un- derstand how they were able to shift so rapidly from one point to another. Luckily no trains were due on the main line or there might have been still more complcations.-Rogers Democrat.

From two and quarter acre patch of beans Henry Clark, who lives near Decatur, gathered and sold on track $536 worth of beans, gross return of over $250 an acre. Figuring the total expense for seed, picking and containers at one-third this shows a net profit of at least S150 an acre for his work Clark has been raising beans for five years, and makes a rec ordbreaking yield each time Twice before he has netted big sums off single acre and he is now convinc- ed there Is more in beans than any other crop he can raise The beans are the Early Valentine string variety and are picked green and shipped to Okla homa and Texas markets, either in bushel hampers, third-bushel crates or bulk in sacks.

k. Seely and C. W Pool arrived home Friday from yicksburg, Miss, where they attended the National Memorial Reunion and Peace Jubilee of the Blue and the Gray. These two, together with F. S. Horton. were the only Springdale representatives at the gathering, Mr Horton stopping at Little Rock on the way home to wis 1t with relatives. 1t was a great gathering of veterans of the war be- tween the states, and there was much fratcrnizing of the boys who wore the blue and the boys who wore the gray and the best of feeling prevailed. The old annimosities engendered by the war have almost entirely been obliter- ated, and the fact that these old vet erants have sons and grand-sons fighting in a common cause will tend 1T further to bring them closer to- gether and to heal the old wounds. \ telegram was sent to President Wilson giving unanimous endorsement and approval of his war policies, and nledgng the services of the old vet erans in any capacity that might be required Both Mississippi senators, Williams and Nardaman, Were pres ent and there was marked differ enee in the reception accorded the two by the old soldiers.

For the past few weeks there has been something missing from the bentonville Democrat It has not had that finished appearance, resulting rom well arranged makeup and neat press work which gives a newspaper that finished appearance and makes It different from the ordinary run of country newspapers. We wondered why this was so, but it was explained last week when the Democrat an- hounced that Jack Maxwell, who had been foreman of the mechanical de- partment of the paper for 29 years had found employment elsewhere. Jack probably knows more about the Democrat office than any man who ever owned it, and while he was there the paper never failed to come out looking spick and span. We don't know who Jack is working for now, but whoever they are they are to be congratulated on securing his ser vices
