It Is unlawful for any per- son, firm or corporation to pay the poll tax of any person for the purpose of influencing their votes in any primary election, according to an opinion recent ly rendered by Attorney Gen. eral John D. Arbuckle.

 "Tommy' Self pitched for Newark and never did he work harder for victory than in this game, and his friends de clare it was the best game he ever pitched. Self allowed the visitors only 1 hits nd struck oist 15 men.
 In the eighth Freeze ran in the score that defeated Bald Knob and the same time up Self added one to the list whict gave Newark three and Bald Knob one.

Jews, the same being taken
 om the Gazette cf July 6:
 "1'he penitentiary is not self sustaining because certain men are robbing the state of the revenue. He said that Ex-Sen- ator Calvert of Ft. Smith and Commissioner John McCuiston own farm near Cummins, cultivated by the states con- Victs and that McCuiston's son. in-law cleared 50 acres with convict labor. He declared that Hamilton Moses, John l.. Carter, Herbert Wilson and Walter B. Hollingsworth each have negro women cCnvicts as household servants and that Mr. Moses sent one to Calhoun county to take care of his un- ele and aunt. "
 Commenting on MT. Terral's statement, Judge Floyd observ- ed that no denial had been published so far as he had been able to find and that the witness is a truthful man.
 He declared that on assum- ing the duties of governor one of his first official acts shall be to make a sweeping and thor ough Investigation of the pen itentiary management and of other state institutions. And that if such conditions as have been charged are found to be true, he pledges the people that speedy and stern measur- es will be taken to recover to the state treasury whatever revenue ii may have been un- lawfully deprived of; and that prosecutions shall be vigorous ly pushed, to the end that de- served punishment shall fall upon all who may be guilty of fraud against the state.
 In this connection, Judge Floyd declared that he was against abolishing the walls of the penitentiary as had been advocated by Smead Powell, but is rather in favor of build ing them higher and stronger, if necessary, to hold those who belong on the inside of the walls, and then to abolish Gov ernor Brough's pardon mill.

The home can accommodate be-

"The girls who 60 to the home

WAS EARLY HOME OF BATHS.
TOWN HAS NONE AT ALI

vraine, Serbia. (By Mail. There
was time in Vraine when the people
included whatever the Serbian word
for bath may be in their everyday vO-
cabularies and not infrequently suited
the action to the word, but that was
hundreds of years ago. Today it Is
with difficulty that the ENJOYS OF the
American Red Cross at Vrajne are
teaching the people the practical
meaning of the word.
And yet. Of all the towns in Ser
bia. Vrajne is the one which should
be most familiar WITH baths and
bathing, for it is the. home of the
biggest and. oldest Turkish bath es-
Establishment in the country. The an
cient baths were built in the six
tenth century by the Turks them
selves. who then ruled the country.
They are housed in an ancient stone
structure with red tile roof:
The water, in those days when the
baths were operating, flowed into
huge watts above, primitive under
ground furnaces from spring whose
crystal stream, now released, still
Bubbles through the vaulted cellars
Of the ancient establishment. Tht
steam from the watts was led to the
hot rooms above through channels
cut in the solid rock walls of the
building, for in the days when the
Vrajne baths were constructed there
was no such thing as an iron or leaG
pipe.
Today the Vrajne baths are desert
ed. Bathing is a ritual of which the
cfty's population has known nothing
for generations. The youths of the
town are learning the art from the
Red Cross workers but the elders still
look on the regular ablution of thu
body as troublesome superfiuity
and the ancient baths, of Vrajne MAY
crumble into ruin ere the subterran
can steam watts boil and bubble again
