CHApTER N.


As soon as the Frog Kings crown
fell into the water, as l told you In
the last story, he gave a great big,
nlournfu1 croak. "Oh, gracious me, and.
oh, woe is met' You see, as long as he
had his, crown on his head he was a
King, but just as soon as he didn't, why.
of course, he was just an ordinary kind
of frog and nobody feared him.
$50 he jumped into the water and
dove-dived down to the bottom OF the
deep black pool. And all this time Puss
Junior stood there looking at him and
the big circle in the water which the
frog had made when he jumped in.
Well, by and by, he came to the sur
face. but without his crown. And he
was very unhappy, for he knew that no.
body would believe he was king any
more. So he turned to Puss Junior and
asked him to get It for him.
''Why should I do that for your
asked our little traveller. "Only b few
minutes ago you looked at me with a
grin and said that Id never get out
of this bog"
"I'll promise to show you a safe path
II you'll only get my crown for me-
croaked the Frog King sadly. So Pus5
looked about him to find stick with a
crook on, but there wasn't any to be
found, and, of course, then lie didn't
know Just what TO do.
And while lie was thinking a silver
Trout swan up and said; IN get the
crown for you, Sir Cat, for my cousin
who lives in the moat at the castle Of
my Lord of Carabas Is very fond of
your famous father, Puss in Boots" Ana
with these words the Silver Trout disap-
peared below the surface and returned
shortly with the Frog Kings crown in
his mouth.
And wasn't the frog happy? Wen,
you should have seen him. lie danced
around and sang this song
oh, I'm as happy as can be,
For I'm a king once more.
To be an ordinary frog
Would be an awful bore.
You'd never guess the dreadful pain
That smote my kingly heart
When In the depths of this deep pool
I saw my crown depart"

NEW BARGE
 LINE ASSURED
ONLY ONE LOCK IN OUACHITA IS NOW NEEDED FOR THE PRO- JECT.

Camden, April 29.-- Barge service on the Ouachita river giving regular transportation between New Orleans and Camden is assured with the com pletion of the lock and dam system on that stream within the next 12 months at least. Steps toward es- tablishing a barge line were under taken few days ago at meeting of the wholesale merchants bureau of the Association of Commerce at New Orleans, La. At the conclusion of the meeting, committee of pro- minent business men of that city was appointed to confer with the officials iof the Mississippi Warrior River Barge Line in this connection. This committee is composed of J. F. Finks, Jr., Carl Giessow, general manager of the New Orleans joint freight bureau, and George Merkle.
 Adolph Felsenthal- of this city, fa- ther of the idea, went to New Orleans on that occasion to place the matter before the New Orleans business men. He returned to Camden today.
 "Only one lock remains to be built in the system of locks under con- struction on the Ouachita, which, when completed, will allow of all-the-year navigation on that stream. Congress has appropriated all the money needed to complete the project and the chan nel should be ready in one year." said Mir. Felsenthal.

S1.50 A SUIT IS ALL THE
 PROFIT WOOD SAYS

Boston, April William M. Wood, president of the American Woolen Company, issued a statement here last night in explanation of the company's annual financial statement, which was made public Tuesday and showed a net profit for 1919 of $15,513,415fi less reserves for taxes and contingencies.
 "There is absolutely no just grounds for the suggestion that this company has charged excessive prices for it's cloth or has gained an unreasonable or excess profit" he said.
 Declaring that the high price of cloth that goes into an average suit of clothes selling at retail from $60 to $65 does not exceed $1.50 per suit. If you assume that the entire per share profit was solely manufactur- ing profit on our cloth, the average profit on the millions of yards which we manufacture would not exceed $1 per suit."

DENIES CONFESS
 SION TO MURDER
ANSON BEST REPUDIATES HIS ALLEGED ADMISSION TO THE MURDER OF YOUNG GIRL.

Pontiac, Mich., April 29. - Anson Best this morning in the presence of his attorney, Prosecutor Gillespie and number of newspaper men, repudiat- ed the confession the prosecutor de- clares he made in the Vera Schneider case.
 The prisoner maintained that his first story, told when he was stopped at the scene of the murder, is the truth and that his admissions made, according to the prosecutor, in the presence of several officers yesterday were all false and due to his fear of officers and fatigue from questioning.
 Plans to arraign the man again in circuit court today have been deferred because of the new development.
 "I did not kill the girl, or have any thing to do with it," said Best this morning "The story I told the of ficers when they stopped me there that night was true. I had been out walking and was on my way home, that was all I had not seen the girl and know nothing of the murder"

MAY DECLARE FOR "OPEN SHOP"

Texarkana, April 29.-Through the action of the Plumbers Union last night in placing the Haynes Plumbing Company shop on the unfair list" be- cause MT. Haynes is charged with selling goods to nonunion plumbing shop, the fight for an open shop pol icy probably will be precipitated in this city. The plumbers employed by Haynes refused to go to work this morning, claiming tey had been order ed not to do so by their union, and MT. Haynes issued an ultimatum to them to decide to report to work by
 5o'clock this afternoon or he will or ganize nonunion force of plumbers. The trouble tends to spread to other union organizations in the city. Mir. Haynes claims he was not advised of the action contemplated by the union and given no chance to explain his ac- tions.

CLOTHING MEN AGREE
TO FORGET PROFITS
Public Insists on LoWer Prices
So Retailers Let 'Em Come.

All those who know what it is to steel
their nerves against shock when enter
ing q clothing store will no doubt be in
terested in the announcement that the
1000 odd retailers of coats and suits and
other articles of wearing apparel In the
United States have decided that this
fall they will let the last wesldt go for
absolute cost. Those who heard 1t yes
terday considered this announcement in
itself something OF a shock 1t was
made by Andreas Burkhardt, president
of the National Association of Retail
Clothiers.
"Rightfully or wrongfuly." said Mr..
Burkhardt, the public is determined TO
get lower prices. Continued increases
brought consumers TO the state where
they can no longer be appealed to by
sheer reason Arguments and facts do
not bulge them one inch
Mr.. Burkhardt goes right ahead to ex-
plain that it has done no good for the
clothiers 10 explain their expenses or
to show that costs. so far as they are
concerned, have not dropped single
penny. The public, he states, wants
lower prices and doesn't care how IL
gets them"
so" he concludes. "all parties to
the clothing Industry have determined
simply TO forget their profits"
Persons who learned last night of the
retailers decision were free in predict
ing that there undoubtedly are a few
tightwads just mean enough to take adj
vantage OF this unusual condition in the
retail clothing business.
