AFTER 3-YEAR NAP YAWNED
AND WENT BACK TO SLEEP
Rival of Rip Van Wrinkle Again Slum-
bers Following Brief Awakening.
In a Hospital Ward

The Sebastian county hospital, in
Fl Smith, Ark, is threatened with a
calamity. The prize sleeper OF the hos
plata second Rip Van Winkle-may
cease sleping and ruin the chief at
traction for visitors.
When Jim" ESlinger raised in bed
and yaWned he terminated his record
of two years and eight months of ap-
parent Slunber. But the revival was
temporary. A few minutes later he
stiffened into rigidity as he sighted a
nurse entering his ward, and could not
be aroused to divulge the inside facts
on his sleep that has baff1ed hospital
physicians and aroused interest of
many surgeons i'll other cities, VINO
have investigated his case.
ESlinger, his wife and three chill
dren arrived at the hospital seven
years ago from Bonanza, Ark, all i'll
OF pellagra. The wife died and the
three children recovered. Eslinger was
paralyzed, and for four years was kept
in a wheel chair. Then he went to
sleep, and until a few days ago he
showed no signs Of consciousness. He
became the honor guest OF the hospit-
al No visit to the institution was con-
S1dered complete without viewing tne
sleeper Jim" lay in state and receiv-
ed visitors without moving an eyelash.
The war and saloons passed without a
murmur from him.
Physicians have been puzzled by the
long slunber, and Eslinger's failure to
respond to touch, heat or cold. He re
ceived nourishment regularly through
a tube Attendants said he had a good
appetite, but his only recognition OF
being fed was slight movement of
the lips.
A staff conference was held when
Jim" temporarily broke his long
sleep, and an effort was made to pro
duce another yawn, but it was fruit
less. Eslinger slumbered on, and ap-
parently is now on the second lap OF
his long rest.

NOW IS THE TIME
TO "SWAT THE FLY"
A GREAT DEAL OF SICKNESS
MAY BE AVOIDED IF THIS
PROBATION IS TAKEN.

This is the season when the slogan
"Swat the Flyw should not only be
sounded but also put into effect. The
fly is a carrier Of diseases. This has
been proved by a scientific research.
At one time there were people who
thought the fly to be a good ~scaven-
ger, and the more flies there were the
better the cleaning up. This fallacy has
been exploded even among the most
ignorant OF people.
The fly has a sticky substance on
its feet that permits it to walk on
ceilings and other places. The fly is
attracted by filth. 1t alights on this
obnoxious matter, then wings itself
away to alight perhaps on the bread
on some dining table or other food
where the fly cleans its feet and leaves
germs of disease on the food.
Baby a Victim.
The milk bottle of the baby appears
to be a great attraction for the fly,
and if the mother is not careful the
innocent infant is likely to take germs
into its system, causing sickness and
sometimes death. The cause OF this
sickness and perhaps death is a great
mystery to the mother, who declares
she took every means to keep baby
WELL" but she forgot the disease car
rier, the fly.
There are cities that start Swat
the Fly" campaign every spring.
School children are enlisted to do
away with this pest. There is a gen
eral cleaning up of places where flies
breed. Everything is done to eXter-
inmate the fly. When this is carried
out the health of the community IS
benefited
The best way to stop an evil is to
destroy the root which causes the
trouble. The root of the fly evil is I'M
sanitary places. While screens to the
windows and doors OF a house aid to
keep the dwelling free from flies, yet
as long as there are unsanitary con-
ditions around or in the neighborhood
Of the house the fly will continue to
breed and take every opportunity OF
dragging its germ-cOvered feet across
food.
"Swat the Fly" Campaign.
People who realize the i'll effects on
human beings coming from the fly
are in favor OF Swat the Fly" cam
paign in Dawson. The greatest swat
ters' can be found among the school
children. Their activities can be turn
ed to a great advantage in getting rid
of this pest, or at least in reducing the
activities of the fly to minimum.
IT is advocated that teachers OF the
public schools call attention OF the
pupils to the erm-Carrying fly and
the necessity OF the fly being kept
away from food 1t is proven flies
do not breed in sanitary places. II
homes are kept clean and the sur
roundings kept in a sanitary condi-
ton it will cause the fly to seek other
places where it can find conditions
to its liking.
If all the conditions attendant to
swat the Fly" campaign are car
ried out in every section Of Dawson
it will mean sanitary condition for
Dawson that will prove OF great bene-
fit to the health OF the people

AGED MAN ARRESTED
AS COUNTERFEITER
LEARNED TO MAKE BAD MON
Ely WHILE IN PRISON, AND
TAUGHT HIS SON.

James Henry Smith, apparently
about % years of age, whose home
is on the Alb Gore place in the Benev-
olence community of Randolph coun-
ty, was arrested Thursday by H. B.
Arnold, a United States secret service
officer, and taken to Atlanta on a
charge of counterfeiting, where he
was sent to jail in default OF $4,000
bond.
When arraigned at the preliminary
hearing Smith broke down and told a
story of how he had learned the art
of making bad money from prisoners
in the federal penitentiary while he
was serving time for violation of the
prohibition law.
He also told how he had set up a
counterfeiting outfit in his home, near
Warwick, Ga, after his release and
admitted he taught his son the bus
mess" His son, Harvey c. Smith, is
in jail at Albany, Ga, in default of a
| 81, 500 bond on the same charge.
Smith wept bitterly as he related
the story of how he took his young
son into his confidence and showed
him how to make counterfeit nickels
and dollars. He said he bought his son
a complete outfit and started him off
few weeks after he gained his lib
erty from the penitentiary. 81 am
mighty sorry, now, for that boy would
have made something out of himself
some day if l had given him the
chance" he declared
Complete outfits for making counter
felt nicke1s and dollars and other
bogus coins were found in the posses
sion of both father and son.

THOUSANDS OF DESTITUTE

refugees in Poland, say agents OF the
American Friends Service committee,
who are distributing American and
other aid in that war devastated coun-
try.
In the Tarnopole district in Galician
Poland over which territory the hur-
ricane of war swept a dozen times,
$500 families are living in such dug
outs, writes Harry Stevens, an Eng
lishman, who is working in Poland.
He describes the land as scanned
with trenches and dishgured by vast
quantities of barbed wire. Hundreds
of people are reported to be dying
from Starvation, cold and disease. They
have neither live stock nor farming
implements. Their land was overrun
by Russians, Austrians, Pruss1ans,
Turks and Bulgarians i'll the world
war, and afterward by the Ukran1ans
and bolsheviki.
The travelling armies took horses,
cattle, poultry, farm tools, everything.
The timber was cut down, their hous-
es were burned and even school build
ings destroyed.

Claims Of Indians Re-
call Massacre.

"reminiscences of the Custer
massacre in the Little Big Horn,
in South Dakota, in 1876, are re-
vived by the recent action of the
South Dakota Sioux Indians in
presenting their demands on Black
Hills land before the United States
court of claims.
Several million dollars worth of
the richest land in the western
part of South Dakota is involved
in the claim.
The Sioux treaty of 1858 pro.
yided for payment to the Indians
for a section of the country in
which the Black Hills are located.
No payment was made, and in
1871 another treaty was entered
into. BY the second treaty the
agreement of 1868 was modified so
that the clause pertaining to settle
ment for land was stricken out.
The Sioux contend that the
earlier treaty expressly provided
that no modification of its pro
visions should be held binding, in
anv treaty.. which might be sub
sequently made.
1t is also alleged that the treaty
of 1877 in behalf of the Indians
was made by a few chiefs, not un-
der full authority, who acted un-
der fear of punishment for their
participation in the battle in which
Custer and bis small command was
completely wiped out. Various
other uprisings and outbreaks un-
der the reign of Sitting Bull, it is
alleged, we're brought to bear by
the whites in coaxing the chiefs to
sign the latter agreement.
Former President William How
ard Taft, Charles E. Hughes and
Joseph E. Davis are recommended
as attorneys TO represent the In.
dams in the contest which is said
to be one of the biggest ever
brought before the Department of
Indian Affairs.
