FRAN kHULLAND TKIPLETT.
 Frank Holland Triplett is the young est son of c. H. Triplett, prominent and pioneer citizen of this city. He will be twenty four years of age next May.
 He attended the local schools, grad uating from the high school in the Class of 1912. After completing his education at the University of Vir ginia, where he received Bachelor of Arts Degree, he accepted a posi- tion in the National Bank of Arkansas, of which his father has been Presi- dent since its organization.
 When war was declared, he was one of the first to offer himself. He at tended the First Officers Training School at Camp Pike, but was re- jected on account of being underweight Returning home, he held himself in Readiness for whatever service he might be able to render.
 He attempted to enlist in the Navy, but was again rejected on account of his weight. Later he applied to Camp Pike authorities for service there, with the same result.
 Somewhat discouraged, but by no means dispairing, he tried again, and this time with success. Upon applica- ton, he was given the rank of ser geant in the Headquarters Troop De- tachment, Quartermasters Corps, Camp Greene, N. c.
 The division with which he was connected had nearly completed it's training at the time he left here last March, and was soon ordered for over seas service. Practically two months to the day from his departure from Pine Bluff, Frank landed in France. He has seen continuous service there ever since within range of the German Berthas, and will no doubt have varied experiences to relate to his many friends upon his return.
 His letters to his family relate many amusing incidents as we'll as grim realities of the conflict. He is the head clerk in the paymaster's office of his division and went with the Major in Command one day recently to branch of the Bank of France in small town to get the money for pay roll for the division. When they asked for a million francs, the clerks who were all old men and had been with the bank many years all nearly dropped dead.
 Frank was recommended for a con- mission on the day that the Armistina was signed. Recent advices from Frank state that he will return to the states at an early date.

RESULT IS UNCERTAIN
Minnesota Probably Has De-
feated Prohibition.
Official Returns From Flfty-nlne
Counties Give "Wets" Lead
of 4,o21.

Minneapolis, Nov. 14.--Official re-
turns from SO of the So counties have
put the fate of the prohibition amend
ment in doubt, but 1t is believed that
it has been defeated.
In the So counties reporting officially
there are 1858 votes in favor of the
amendment out of total of 219,706.
In those counties the amendment, to
have carried, must have had 109,854
votes. The wet lead, therefore, is
4,021.
Hennepin county, still to report off,
cially, will give the drys lead of
approximately 1000 votes. Political
experts figure that 1t will be impos-
sible to gain that many votes in the
remaining counties, owing to the per.
centage of loss occasioned by un.
marked ballots.
With six precincts in Hennepin
missing, there were 60,695 votes cast
in the election. The drys got 32,526
and the vets 25.699 On the bases of
the 60,e95 vote, the drys needed 30,'
34S. 1t means that their majority In
this county totals 2,178, with the six
precincts missing.

TO COME HOME AS NEEDED
U. S. Forces About to Be Demoblized
on Work Basis.

Washington, Nov. 14.--Demobiliza-
tion of men in the military and naval
service of the United States after their
return from France will be carried
out largely on basis of the ability
of trades and occupations to absorb
them, under a plan being worked out
by the labor, war and navy depart.
ments and the war industries board.
1t was said that the plan will be sub
mftted to President Wilson in few
days.
The War Industries board has sent
questionnaires to employers in all in
dustries, asking the needs of each for
men, and the answers will show where,
when and how rapidly jobs will be
ready for discharged soldiers and sail
ors, and what trades are most in need
of them. Supplementing this informa-
tion will be that received from draft
boards and community labor boards,
which are to cooperate in the work.

NAVY TO POLICE SEAS
American Warships Win Play An
important Part.
Passage by Congress of Building Pro-
gram Will Be Pressed by
Administration.

Washington, No. IA. - The Amer
ican navy is expected to play an inn
portant part in the proposed after the
war international policing of the seas.
For that reason, it was learned,
there is no prospect of any reduction
in the present naval strength, and the
administration instead plans to press
urgently for the passage of the addi-
tional three-year building program re-
Gently placed before Congress by Sec
retary Daniels,
The cessation of hostilities in Eu.
rope, 1t is believed, will permit con-
centration of energy on speeding up
the capital ships program held back
heretofore by the necessity of produc
ing special anti-submarine f1otillas.
AS to disarmament possibilities in
cluded in the new world program to
be worked out, it was pointed out that
President Wilson had thus far pro
posed reduction of ornaments only to
point consistent with domestic Sc
curity. In view of the present un
certain situation of the world no one
seeks to foretell just what naval force
must be maintained.

Germany Is Required to Sur.
render Her Entire Fleet
of Submarines.
18. ARTICLES ALTERED
ments to the Terms of Armi-
s.ice Before Signed by
the Delegates.

Washington, Nov. IA. - Under the
armistice terms as amended by Mar
shal Foch before he signed them with
the German ENJOYS Monday morning,
Germany loses her entire fleet of sub
marines.
Instead of 160 vessels, every one of
the undersea pirate craft must be sur
rendered to the Allies and the United
States within IA days.
Changed by Foch.
Eighteen of the articles as originally
prepared by the Supreme War council
and as read by President Wilson to
Congress were changed under the linn
tied authority for alteration given the
supreme commander in dealing with
the enemy ENJOYS.
The State department received and
made public the amended articles,
with the explanation that no informa-
tion had come as to how the changes
were brought about.
Apparently most of them were con-
ceded in response to appeals of the
German spokesmen, though several be-
sides that touching submarines make
the terms more drastic than before
re,--yd ~ $50 --'-i--'
Instead of $4,000 railroad cars to be
surrendered in evacuated territory,
the number is made 100000. On the
other hand, the number of machine
guns to De delyered by the Ier1nal4s
is reduced from 10000 to $4,000. The
German troops in East Africa are per-
mitted to eyacuate instead of being
required to surrender.
Provision is made for considering
food needs I'm Germany in the taking
of means of transportation, and spe-
cific reference to the regulation of
repatriation of German prisoners of
war at the conclusion of peace is
added
In response to the German fear of
anarchy in occupied Russian provinces
after evacuation, the time of evacu-
alton is changed from Immediately to
"as soon as the Allies, taking into
account the internal situation of these
territories, shall decide that the time
for this has come Territories which
belonged to Austria-Hlngary before
the war are added to those which must
be evacuated.
Armistic Commission Provided.
Another added clause provides for
an armistice commission, to which
Germans will be admitted, to carry
out details under the direction of the
victorious military authorities and in
accord with appended notes, which
were drafted during the conference
between Marshal Foch and the Ger
man delegates.
