OLD DISTRICT WILL
 NOT BE RE-OPENED

Mayor Bloom, yesterday, empathi- cally denied that an attempt to re- open the old red light" district in Pine Bluff was being considered. There have been a number of rumors in the city lately that the city was in such financial straights that plans were being considered to open the old district as an available means of revenue. "The legalized running of an immoral district in Pine Bluff to obtain a revenue for the city would be impossible as re-opening the saloons" Mayor Bloom said.

Police Advised to Make War On Vagrants When the
 Weather Settles.

With the statement that the name of the county '.poor house" had been changed to the County and City hos pital, County Judge R. H. Williams appeared before the council last night and requested that they aid him fin building a pike road from where the pavement ends at Sixth avenue to the County and City hospital.
 Judge Williams stated that the road was almost impossible, and that often times when inmates of the hospital had died the bodies had to be car ried several blocks to the ambulance. He further stated that he intended to remodel the hospital, install electric lights and paint the house and resi- dence. A room would be maintained he stated, which would be fitted up as ward He said that the city and county both had been in need of a hospital of such character for some time, citing instances of where per sons would be injured in accidents, prisoners would become ill., and other instances where county or city hos pital would prove needed. He stat ed that the cost to the city would be $207.

The Meridian times. (Meridian, Idaho) 1909-1938, 1919-05-23

There are millions of people who
suffer almost daily from the horrors
of an acid-stomach-indig sour,
gassy, stomach; distressing heartburn;
sickening food-repeating painful
bloat and that miserable, pulled up,
lumpy feeling after eating. Many of
these people have tried treatment after
treatment; medicine after medicine;
others have gone to doctors and stom-
ach specialists and some to hospitals,
but in spite of all of their efforts they
have obtained no lasting relief or a
permanent cure.
These symptoms simply mean acid
stomach. If allowed to run on, they
are very likely to cause lot of seri-
Gus trouble. Dyspepsia, rheumatism
govt, lumbago, sciatica, splitting head
ache, dizzy spells, nervousness, Sleep
lessness, mental depression, melan-
cholia, a feeling of listlessness ard
ll-goneness-thesa are just few OF
the disorders which can be traced to
acid-stomach. AS matter of fact,
acid-stomach is often the direct cause
of those almost incurable conditions
known as catarrh of the stomach, in
festival ulcer, and cancer of the stom-
ach. The lives of those who suffer
from these serious troubles are moth
ing short of daily agony. Surely,
then, you must see how important II
is to go at once to the seat OF the
trouble - acid-stomach. You know

Make I his Test For
Acid Stomach

what acid-mouth does to the teeth
how it eats right through the hard
enamel and causes them to decay.
Think then of the havoc that must
be caused by excess acid in the stom-
ach!
Even if you are not suffering any
immediate stomach rains, but are not
feeling just as fit and fine as you
should, you should by all means make
this test: Go to your drug store at
once and get big box of EATONIC.
1t is in the form of pleasant-tasting
tablets-you eat them like bit of
candy. EATONIC is prepared for just
one purpose-correcting acid-stomach
by driving out the excess acid.
EATONIC literally absorbs the excess
acid. 1t brings instant relief from
the pains of indigestion, heartburn,
belching, sour, gassy stomach, bloat,
etc. 1t makes the stomach pure, sweet,
cool and comfortable, puts it in nor
NAL, healthy condition, so that your
food is properly digested. You need
every bit of strength you can possibly
get out of the food you eat-and
EATONIC helps you get it.
Don't put this test off if you value
your future good health and happi-
ness. You run no chance at all be
cause EATONIC is absolutely guar
anteed to give you relief or your drug
gfst will refund your money. The
cost is a mere trifie.

General Thomas Great Soldier.

"Old Pap Thomas" as his soldiers
lovingly called him, has received full
credit for his services in the terrific
battle of Chickamauga. He has never
been given due recognition for his
other work, nor assigned proper
place in the hall of fame of. the nation
he helped to save.
he was a virginian by birth, and
therefore his loyalty at the beginning

though not unnatural suspicion. He
declined TO supersede General Buell..

passes AS the hurrying hosts were arr
rayed by their generals for the coming
battle.
The Confederates under General Lee
had invaded Pennsylvania from the
south, and just one week before. June
%, 1863, Lee had sent 10000 men yet
farther north to capture Harrisburg.
They expected that the close of July
would find them in possession of Phil
adelphia. But just as their advance
cavalry were pointing their guns
across the Susquehanna Lee learned
that the Army of the Potomac, under
Maj. Gen. George G. Meade, had start
ed from Harper's Ferry in pursuit, and
Lee ordered his troops in motion back
toward Gettysburg, where twelve turn
pike roads concentrated.
General Meade, hurrying his corps
northward, came to the outskirts of
Gettysburg the night of June 80 with
his advance cavalry.
At daybreak July General Buford,
leading Meade's cavalry, clashed with
General Heth of Hills Confederate
corps, and one of the greatest battles
of all time was on. All day the fight
ragged, as the troops composing the
two armies were hurried forward from
distant points to take part. At night
fall the Confederates had driven the
Union men back from the ground held
by them in the morning, on through
the streets of Gettysburg, and finally
to line of battle on Cemetery hill
and ridge southeast of the town, and
during the night the commanders of
both armies filled up gaps in their
lines and strengthened their positions
for the inevitable battle Of the morn
| ing.
All the second day Lee hurled his
brigades against Meade's right and left

only served to make the federal posi-

On the third and last day came Lees
final attempt to win, mighty cannon
aiding of $50 guns at one o'clock in the
afternoon hurting death into the Union
forces on Cemetery ridge Then, at
2 80 in the afternoon, an order from
Lee, a nod of the head from General
Longstreet, for he did not sanction the
charge, and away went General Pick
EFT in that most famous charge from
the Confederate position on Seminary
ridge to the Union center on Cemetery
ridge, nearly a mile apart.
That charge made great history.
After leading his men to the Union
line and piercing it, Pickett was beaten
back. The point pierced was a stone
wall. known to this day as the Bloody
Angle, or High Water Mark" of the
Confederacy.
Lee, from Seminary ridge, saw the
charge was a failure and the battle
lost. He ordered retreat and the
Army of Northern Virginia departed
from the scene of its three-day valor-
Gus struggle. but still with sufficient
fighting strength and spirit left to con-
tinue the conflict for nearly two years
longer.
That is the Battle of Gettysburg in
nutshell.
