TWO BLEVINS
 MEN ARRESTED
DULY GORHAM AND o. AYOTT OF BLEVINS TAKEN TO TEX ARKANA CHARGED WITH BOOT LEGGING.

Two well known citizens of Blew ins, Duly Gorham, station agent at that place and O. Ayott, a planter and operator of a handle mill, are in jail at Texarkana charged with selling liquor in violation of the Fed eral Prohibition Law. Gorham was arrested at Bluevins yesterday after noon by Federal Prohibition officers, Davis of Texarkana and Cantley of Prescott assisted by sheriff Steele of this city and brought here last night in car and taken to Texarkana on 233. Ayott was arrested in this city Sunday afternoon and taken to Tex arkana that night and lodged in jail. Their preliminary trials are in pro gress in federal court at Texarkana this afternoon.
 It is said that Ayott was quet:cned here by the officers before ha' was taken to Texarkana but he refused to tell where he bought his booze but after a few hours spent in the jail, he is said to have implicated -Gorham, the station agent at Blevins. The officers left here yesterday afternoon and went to Blevins in, car. Upon arriving there a thorough search was made of the depot and two gallons of whiskey was found in the attic of the building. The arrest of Gorham fol- lowed.

1918 1919

It will be observed that there is but slight reduction for 1919 over the preceding year There is a startling increase in the number of deaths by drowning. Records of actuaris show that the greatest number of these deaths occur in the summer months, from May to September inclusive, and between the ages of 15 and 19 years, when boys are most inclined to go swimming It has been estimated by one of the large insurance companies that the death rate from drowning among white males is 31 per 100000 living, being higher death rate than for all other acute respiratory con- ditions combined at this time of life. Very high rates prevail among color ed boys and young men, and among girls and young women, drownings are about one-tenth as frequent.
 It is believed also that the statis- tics for homicides and suicides are not complete, and that, unfortunately the number is really much larger. It is known that several years ago sta tistics were kept which showed ar average of almost one homicide ol suicide day. This kind of death by violence is still very excessive, al though it is apparent that there has been an improvement in recent years

 The condition of Mr. Albright at midnight was so serious that physi- clans at the hospital said he proba- ply would not survive the night. He had been unconscious several hours.

HEALTH STATISTICS.
 ARE INTERESTING.
SLIGHT REDUCTION OVER 1919- STARTLING INCREASE IN THE NUMBER DEATHS BY DROWN ING.

Some interesting statistics have been compiled by Dr. c. w. Garrison, State Health Officer, from the Vital Statistics collected by the Health De- partment. The records are not com plete, it being estimated that only about sixty per cent of the deaths that occur in the state are reported as required by law. An effort is to be made to have the law amended so that it will be possible to compel all counties to furnish these reports.
 A startling feature of the report is the following statement of deaths by violence during the last two years:
The Prescott daily news., 1920-06-15

The great reduction in the number of deaths due to drugs and alcohol is a strong argumnC in favor of the effectiveness of the prohibitory laws.
 There is also noted considerable reduction in the deatts by automobile accident, but a slight increase in the deaths due to railroad accidents.
 An analysis of the list will show that the greater part of the deaths are due to preventable causes, or at least to causes that might te minimized by a reasonable degree ol caution.
 This proves that the Safety First" campaigns stt.l have rlenty of mateti- al to work on. The largest single item is that of deaths by the careless use of firearms, and the records show that the majority of victims are children who are permitted to handle guns
 There is an awakening cf the public conscience in regard to the preserve tion of health and the elimination of causes productive of disease. Health surveys are yielding splendid results. The malarial control work has been given an impetus in Arkansas by &C., tual demonstrations that tend to pop ularize it. A Health Exhibit train started out June on the Cotton Belt to make the tour of the state, con cluding at Lewisville. June 28.
 The work of the State Health De- partment, the Arkansas Public Health Association, the Red Cross and mind red agencies is attracting favorable attention throughout the state and as the results become better understood the people are supporting all of them more substantially.

 The body of Miss Martin was talk en to her home at Caloin this morning while the bodies of Miss Gaughan and Miss Brown will be sent to Camden at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning. Bus mess men here today raised $100, which was used to buy flowers for their collins.
