VALUABLE STONE FOUND
 AT DIAMOND MINE
Company Nearly Ready to Begin Oper. atiOns With Expensive Machinery
 Recently Installed.

Murfreesboro, Oct. 8.-The biggest find of the Arkansas Diamond Cor poration's mine here recently was a 20 IA carat white stone, which was among AS carats of diamonds in 100 leads of earth moved by small hand washing operations during a two- week period of operation. A second period of operation yielded B carats in 100 loads.
 The prize diamond of the Arkansas field probably is worth S10,000 in it's uncut state. It's value cannot be esti- mated accurately until it is appraised by experts, but the next largest dia- mond found here, a perfect white stone weighing 1S.3 carats, was sold in the rough for $6,SOO to Tiffany of New York
 Machinery Arrives.
 The company's expensive diamond mining machinery has begun to ar rive and will be promptly installed. Only about two years ago the con- pany expended s25O,OOO for improved machinery and now is adding addi- tional equipment for the mines, the only diamond mines in the United States.
 |' The new washing screen arrived about a week ago, followed by the rolls, which have been installed. Pulley and gears have arrived and the crew is waiting for the arrival of the pump and engine to be used in washing the surface material in the field through a Hume and into a screening and digging plant. This plant was completed some time ago. The concentrates from this plant then will go to the grease tables.
 Returns From South Africa.
 s. H. Zimmerman, engineer and general manager, has returned from a visit to the diamond mines of South Africa and plans to incorporate new details that he observed in the Soutt Africa mines. He expects to be ready to begin operations with the new machinery within a few days
 His report on the findings of the big diamond was as follows:
 "The small hand-washing opera tions in the field have been carried on constantly and the results were the best We have ever had One two- week period yielded AS carats per 100 loads, among which was a fairly good 20 IA carat white stone. The second period yielded B carats per 100 loads. This whole area is very sandy and gravelly and is very different from that handled before. We are anxious to see what larger washing operation will disclose"

UNEMPLOYMENT IS NO LONGER VERY SERIOUS
Men Are Returning to Work by the Thousands as Winter
 Approaches.

Washington, Oct. Washington has been somewhat fearful of the coming winter and what it might bring to and from an army of mill lions of unemployed men, but it's fears are passing with the quickening of prosperity. The army of the idle is dwindling more rapidly than an- ticipated, according to reports from many sections, and while there are possibly two or three millions still unemployed the general situation is becoming so much better that for the first time in months officials here feel that it is rapidly being taken in hand and that winter holds few terrors.
 The situation was full of grave possibilities three or four months ago." says J. B. Densmore, director general of employment, during the Wilson administration, "but it looks healthier now. Three or four months ago we were worried over the out look. Four or five million idle men, with families suffering for the neces- sites of life and with abundance of time to ponder over their troubles constitute a force which warrants grave consideration. It received such consideration.
 Is More Work Each Day.
 Now, however, the situation has changed. There are far fewer idle men than there were last July. Thou sands of men who could not find jobs then are finding work now. They are going back to work every day. There are, it is true, a good many men yet to find employment, but the problem is less acute. The chances are that they will nearly all find work be- fore real winter sets in, although many of them will have only part time and probably most of them will go back at wage reductions"
 Reports from almost every section to the government departments and to the scores of national trade asso- citations quartered here show that the revival of industry, while not of boom proportions, has drawn tens Of thousands of workers back to their jobs during the past thirty days. The railroads probably added 150,O00 men to their payrolls and are ready to add tens of thousands more, they say, as soon as Congress makes available funds due them. Prospects for the passage of such legislation is excel lent, once the tax bill gets out of the way
 Iron and steel are picking up Furnaces long idle are being blown in few each month but enough to swell the production figures materially. Manufacturing centers report a genu- inc revival in many lines, of which textiles, now going at approximately full blast, takes the lead.
 AgitatOrs Are Active.
 In the army of the idle the agitator has been busy during the summer. There are reports in the Department of Justice, gathered by the investiga- tors in some of the chief centers, such as Pittsburg which indicate that the agitator has made converts and that

there has been some growth of radical doctrines among the ranks of the un- employed. It was the growth of such. sentiment-the expression of men feel ing the pinch of idleness-that wor- ried administration leaders last sum- mer.
 For a time it seemed as if the radi- cal and the irresponsible had planted lions of men with nothing but time orS their hands. There were real for bodings of what bleak winter mig bring. But such fears are vanish&D in the smoke of mills and factories gone back to work.

Mrs. Smelcer seeking to establish her
charge of her husbands cruelty, her
husband denying these charges and try
ing to prove very ugly temper on tn
part of his wife, but apparently neither

A UNIQUE RECORD

Home testimony for Doan's Kidney
Pills, published in every locality, is Of
itself convincing evidence Of merit.
Confirmed testimony forms still
stronger evidence. Years ago citizen
of Glenwood Springs, gratefully &C.
knowledged the benefit derived from
Doan s Kidney Pills. The statement Is
now confrmed-the proof more convine-
ing. Cases of this kind are plentiful in
the work of Doan's Kidney Pills-the
record is unique.
James G. Barber, carpenter, 1909
Palmer Ave-, Glenwood Springs, says:
"I have used Doan's Kidney Pills for
backache and other symptoms Of kid
ney trouble and they have always helped
me and removed the suffering. I have
recommended this good remedy for years
and know it will cure kidney com.
plant"
OVER FOUR YEARS LATER, Mr..
Barber said: "I have previously recon-
mended Doan's Kidney Pills because Of
the relief they gave me. Now after
having used them more I am stronger
in my praise than ever"
