Parks Arrested on
 Forgery Charges

Meridian, Mss. June 1s.-(Spe- cial )-C. c. Parke, aged about 35, has been arrested here charged with forgery on several counts. It is al- legged Parks secured money at dif- ferent times from a local bank or checks signed c. H. Bridges, which name is alleged to have been forged. The first of these checks were ut tered and cashed here in December, 1ac0, according to the authorities, and since which time Parks has been sought by detectives through several states. It was only during the past several days when another alleged forged check was presented at the same bank with the name of c. H. Bridges signed to it. that the authori- ties found any trace of him.
 With his arrest 1t was learned the man had recently married at Laurel and that he had come with hls wife to again reside in Meridian. That Le should again make an effort to vic- timize the same bank with the sig nature of one of the best known men in the city has been a puzzle to the authorities. None of the amounts Parks secured on the alleged forged checks were in excess of s10O. and one of them was for only $10. It ia said by the officers that when Parks formerly resided here he was loco motive firemen and was well known to MT. Bridges, whose name he is ai- legged Co have forged.

ding sort of way--just fulfilling the requirements and that was all.
 Harry's mother always made me think of flame-a flame that was feeding upon itself.
 She was always working at some thing. Her flower garden was the best in town. Her roses were envied eFeii in the flower shops. Her vege- tables were the earliest and, outside of the actual spading of the ground, think Harry's mother did all of the work in her garden. She was always at work in it from early spring until late in the fall
 T could always count the change Of seasons by Mrs. Glendening's hat. She discarded her velvet hat at Easter and put on her plain black straw, but without its flowers. On the first of June she added bunch of roses TO the straw hat. In September the roses were taken off and a bow of Lrrpie ribbon was added.
 Tt was not until the last of No- vember that the black velvet hat ap- Leare ed again: and New Years day always saw feather added to it's trimming"
 Do you suppose" asked Davis. that there are women in the world like that now? My friends dauSh- ters and my friends wives wear straw hats in January and velvet hats In August. And they would think that they had denied their religion if they did not have a resplendent rev millinery confection on their heads at Easter"
 I'll wager" laughed Claverinr. that the elder Mrs. Glendening, wito is yet alive. Is still wearing the same hats she wore years ago. It's unfor- trnate that she was not able to ins.ill into Harry's mind some of her ideas of economy. Of course, he seldom buys expensive clothes. He does not need to, being rather small and youthful he looks well in anything. But he will buy the most expensive dinners when he entertains. That's his hobby--next to women. Still 1t works out well for Harry He Is ln- yited three or four times where he entertains once. His monthly flower bill is huge. I suspect his mind IS always in deadly conflict with it. self between his mothers economical training and his sensuous love of comfort, beauty and pleasure
 The amusing thing Is that every quaint idea Harry has in regard to economy Is as cratic as everything else about him. He is penurious in some things and wildly extravagant in others. He Is always in debt all though his position pays him s15,0U0 yearly. For part of this his wife may be blamed. She is the most selfishly extravagant woman I ever knew"
 T can't agree with that" inter- rupted John Davis seriously. But then I'll talk later'

OLCOTT ASKS FOR
FULL VOTE COUNT

Recount of the votes cast for Cover
nor at the recent primary election ir
every precinct in Oregon rather than ir
only those precincts pointed out in the
election contest proceedings filed or
behalf of Charles Hall, is the fair and
just way of determining definitely and
for all time who the nominee actually
is, if any possible doubt exists at this
time, according to a statement issued
by Governor Olcott Saturday.
Reference also was made'in Cover
nor Olcott's statement to letters that
have been sent out to members of the
Ku Klux Klan in Walla Walla, Pendle-
ton and other cities urging them to as
sist in financing the recount of the
votes in the Oregon election. Both
the Walla Walla and Pendleton branch
es of the Ku Klux Klan, according to
letters in possession of Governor Oh
colt. have appropriated amounts equal
to 81 member. Estimates of the
cost of the proposed recount of the
votes vary in these letters from $25, :
600 to $50, 900.
In a third letter in possession Of
Governor Oleott, copies of which ap-
parently are being sent by Mr.. Hall to
voters of Oregon and other states, the
defeated candidate makes it known
that the proposed recount of the votes
will cost in the neighborhood of $685.
600, and suggests contributions to con-
tinue the work. This letter was writ
ten on stationery of the Coos & Curry
Telephone Company of Marshfield, Of
which Mr.. Hall is manager.

SPRAY FOR COOLING
MOTH is NOW DUE
(By Leroy Childs)

Growers throughout the Lower Val
ley should plan to apply the arsenate
of lead spray for the control of second
brood worms by the 2t5h of this month
as eggs will begin to hatch by that
time.
Indications all season point to the
fact that much damage will occur if
careful attention is not given to spray
ing during the remainder of the sea-
son. Temperatures have been above
normal and rainfall has been below
normal. Both of these factors are fa-
vorable to worm development. The
first brood was so broken up that it
will require two sprays at least in the
Lower Valley to hold the worms under
control this season. A second spray
will be necessary in Is or 20 days or
around about the 18th of August. This
recommendation applies to all of the
Lower Valley. Development in Will
low Flat indicates that the spray
should be applied between the 25th and
the 30th. At Dee, shortly after the
first of August, and at Parkdale where
conditions warrant, the spray should
be applied abouth the 10th. Use plenty
of spray and be sure to cover the in
side portions of the trees thoroughly.
On account of the weight of fruit it is
often difficult to coat the inside apples
we'll unless especial attention is given.
Remember to cover the tops of the
trees. Use arsenate of lead, 6 pounds
to 300 gallons and spreader one and
one-half to 300 gallons.

The hotel is extremely popular with

more for such occasions than Hood
