OHIO IS BIGGEST
 OF DRY STATES
Takes Honors From Michigan Tonight at Midnight When Constitutional Prohibition Becomes Effective
 Most Saloons Closed Saturday

Columbus, O., May 4ohio to- night threw her hat into the prohibi- ton ring. Altho constitutional pro hibition does not become effective un- iii next Tuesday. all except l6S of the 5.6o0 saloons in the state auif busi- ness tonight at midnight. rather than pay the $305 license in order to keep open next Monday for the one day.
 Every wet center in the state to- night gave farewell parties to John Barleyeorn. Some of the saloons closed their doors early rather than attempt to weather the closing festiv- ities.
 An bars did a rushing business, and as the closing hour of midnight drew near. some auctioned off their remain ing stock of wet goods. The "end' found many bars completely sold out. Few saloons closed with full stocks. Prevailing high prices did not tumble. if at all, until near the midnight hour. Only a few of the larger hotel bars and saloons in the bigger cities will be open Monday.
 4 goodly number of the saloons closed tonight will reopen Monday or some time in the near future as soft drink bars and restaurants. Most of them will retain their saloon fixtures, but the goods sold will be minus the 'Ixick" of former days. It will be mostly pop. ginger ale and near-beer. Many of the breweries will manufac- ture ice and go into the cold storage business.
 The biggest saloon in the world located at Bridgeport, 0.--will not close it doors until Monday night. It. is owned by Samuel Ungerleider, and employs seventy-seven bartenders and clerks. For the past four years it has sold an average of twenty thousand drinks day.
 Ohio is now the biggest state in the country to have prohibition, taking the record away from Michigan. The state was voted dry on last November 1 by majority of more than twenty five thousand

THIS POLK COUNTY SOLDIER
 SAW FIGHTING AND DEATH
Lewis Tilley of Hatfield Brings Back a Souvenir to Widow of the Chum
 He Saw Die in France.

Lewis Tilley, son of Mrs. Bettie Til ley of Cove, who returned last week from service with the A. E. F. in France, was in Mena Monday on an errand of kindness, carrying out the last request of dying soldier chum
 1t was to bring to Mrs. Robert R.. Hilton a German medicine glass that was found by her husband on a bat tlefield from which the Americans had driven the Huns. It was the in- tention of Hilton to send the souvenir to his wife, and, when dying, he re- qussted Tilley to bring it to her.
 Soldier Tilley says that, side by side. he and Hilton had gone over the top many times, and neither had re- ceived scratch, but that while lying in their trenches, 200 yards from the enemy, awaiting orders to advance, a high explosive shell fired from a long-range gun, burst over them A piece of this struck his companion in the forehead. He called a first aid man, who looked at the wound and said he could do nothing for him. Young Hilton retained consciousness to the last and conversed with his chuin. dying in about half an hour, just before the final call to advance. Tillev left his dead friend and went into the fray, never seeing him again.
 All this and much more took place in the terrible battle of Argonne, in which the Americans hammered their way forward and administered de- feat to the Huns.
 Young Tilley and Hilton answered their country's call at Mena on June 24. 1918. On August IS, less than two months later, they landed at Brest. France. In the latter part of September they went forward to take their places in that historical battle of the Argonne Forest. In this bat tie they fought for twenty-one con- tinuous days without relief, then had a rest of ten days, when they again were called to the battle front, where they fought until the one was dead and the other saw the signing of the armistiee. In all Tilley says he "went over' fully thirty times. He was gassed once, and on the same day received a slight wound. but was only out of service four days
 Asked if, in all lis fighting, he had actual knowledge that he had killed an enemy, and, with a quick motion Tilley exposed belt he was wearing. It was of heavy tan leather and the buckle bore in the center a crown, and at the top "Gott Nit Uns," with a wreath completing the circle
 And, with the remark that no price was enough to cause him to part with it, Tilley told this story:
 with my companions I was on a night raid into No Mans Land. II was in almost utter darkness, and German raiding parties also were out seeking what they could find. Ws came up to boche shelter from the side, and in doing so ran into sol
 dlef who was watching. This sol
 dier drove his bayonet thru the bod,
