 MEN HERE TONIGHT
B. c. Riley Will Show How Government Will Give Men Training.

The first meeting of the wireless telegraphy class to be conducted in Pine Bluff under the auspices of the College of Engineering of the Univer- sity of Arkansas and United States government cooperating, was held at the assembly hail of the Chamber of Commerce. last night. B. c. Riley, rep resenting the university, and John M. Clayton, who will have charge of the class, were present and spoke con cerning the work. Several men eX- pressed a desire to study and were enrolled.
 E. B. Bloom, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, said that since the first announcement of the class was made Thursday morning, that a great many men did not know of the meeting, consequently there will be rally of drafted men and others in terested in wireless telgraphy at the Chamber of Commerce at 8 o'clock tonight.

 "The course in wireless telegraphy will open here," MT. Riley said. "There will be classes in the morning and afternoon for men who must com- plete the work in short time, while evening classes will be held for those employed. The classes will be free to any man in Pine Bluff.

The men will be examined at completion of the course and certificates will be issued which will be recognized by officers at cantcnments and navy recruiting officers.
 John Clayton, who will be in charge of the class, is graduate of Cornell university wireless school and licensed commercial operator.

ARKANSAS TROOPS OUT OF STATE CAN'T VOTE

Little Rock. May S.-The War De- partment has held that it will not in- terefere with military discipline for the states to arrange for the voting of Its citizens in primary or general elections, by such as are in camps or cantonments. Many of the states. in cluding Arkansas. have Absent Not- CTS Laws, but it is held that the Ark ansas law does not provide for the voting of those who may be absent from the state. Therefore. the thous' ands of voters at Camp Beauregard. from this state will be deprived of the right of suffrage. but those at Camp Pike. from any point in Arkan- sas. may have the right of voting on Nav 2S.
 AS to the soldiers in France or on other foreign c,oil, i'll the theater of war, the deps. tment has reached the decision that their vote cannot be taken without serious interference with military efficiency.

GEN. CAREY FIRST AM MERICAN
 HERO GENERAL.

Brig. Gen. Carey, as the first American general to attain dis tinction on the battlefield in the pres ent war, will become better known as the facts regarding his exploit in Pic ardy become higher appreciated.
 General Carey was fighting like a wild man in the thick of one of the most momentous battles in history and it was week or so later before anyone at home knew thing about it!
 Carey was at the point in the Pic ardy line where the Germans had fore ed a serious gap in the allied line be fore Amiens. The gap had to be fill cd at once. Carey went scouting be- hind the lines and gathered little "army" of signallers, electricians la, borers, youths from nearby train ing camp, 50 cavalrymen and num- Der of American engineers. These Carey rushed up into the gap and held the line against big odds for four days, or until reserves arrived. Gen. Ca |rey's ncndescript "army" fought so we'll that the Germans didn't know there was gap.
 Characteristic of genuine hefoism, General Carey kept in the dark about his exploit. It was mot until after the battle was over, and the British war office was figuring on how the line happened to be held when they didn't have any soldiers there, that General Carey was discovered. You can't keep a good man down.

Glass of Hot Water
 Before Breakfast
 a Splendid Habit
Open sIuices of the system each morning and wash away the
 poisonous, stagnant matter.

Those of us who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when we arise; splitting headache, stuffy from a cold foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom- ach, lame back, can, instead, both look and feel as fresh as daisy always by washing the poisons and toxins from the body with phosphated hot water each morning.
 We should drink, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with tea spoonful of limestone phosphate in it to flush from the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten yards of bowels the previous days indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans ing, sweetening and purifying the en- tire ailmentary tract before putting more food into the stoamhc
 The action of limestone phosphate and hot water on an empty stomach is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour lamentations, gases,
 waste and acidity and gives one a splendid appetite fer breakfast and it is said to be but little while unti. the roses begin to appear in the cheeks. A quarter pound of limestone phosphate will cost very little at the drug store. but is sufficient to make anyone who is bothered with bilious rheumatism real enthusiast on the subject of internal sanitation. Try | it and you are assured that you will look better and feel better in every way shortly.-Advt.

BATTLING DISEASE
 KILLS PACKS STOCK

A disease that is baffling veterinar- ians has caused the death of six head of stock belonging to MT. Pack, on the Louis Cheek farm, four dying within an hour and-a-half. The symptoms indicate poisoning, but it has not yet been determined whether the animals were poisoned, or were victims of the same disease that has killed numerous stock in Lonoke and Cleveland coun- ties, and which is said to be trans mitted by the Buffalo gnat. Dr. l.. E. Campbell has invited State Veter- marian Cow to come to Jefferson, and the latter is expected here today.

The war could be stopped and a remote resemblance to justice done all around IF the kaiser gave the word and insisted it be carried out.
 Let France have Alsace-Lorraine- this would remove the irritation for future wars.
 Restore Belgium and indemnify that nation.
 Restore Poland and the lands stolen from Russia.
 Let the powers settle the Austro- Italian dispute.
 Remove the Turk from Europe and dismember his "empire" in Asia, giv' ing to each constituent portion a measure of government under guarantee of the free nations of the globe.
 Restore Serbia.
 Let England and Germany settle the colony proposition, probably on bar tering basis; at any rate, we probably would not care to dictate the terms as to these.
 All this the kaiser could do IF he were tired of spilling German blood IF he were possessed with the milk of human kindness;" IF he wished to do the best for the German nation that could possibly be done by a mon arch.
 In addition he could also permit a constitutional monarchy to form in his land and give the people-his "subjects" s"-more of chance to gov ern themselves. . But the kaiser isn't that sort of a man. The killing of men does not worry him. He is still alive-so are his sons, his military sons. Strange how these military scions of royalty never get shot! They don't even have to get their boots muddy on rainy day at the front.
 But the kaiser, it appears, dosen't yet see the light. It will take Ameri' can soldiers by the million and Ameri can dollars by the billion to pene trate his skull.
 But sooner or later Potsdamanis will go to pot.
