OUR GOVERNOR HONORED
.Arkansas' Chief Executive Accorded
Significant Honors by the
People of Galveston.
Galveston, Tex., April 2'2. At
today's session of the < >ld Settlers’
Convention addresses were made
hy many prominent men of the
country, including Gov. Davis of
Arkansas, Gov. A. I>. Cummins
of Iowa, Gov. Mickey of Nebraska,
J. H. Hunter, banker and stock
man of Springfield, 111., Prof. J.
II. Connel of Dallas.
The feature of the afternoon ses
sion was the address of Governor
Jell’ Davis of Arkansas, which was
considered sensational in part.
In his address during the morn
ing session Gov. Mickey of Ne
braska observed that his last trip
to the South was during the Civil
war, and he alluded to the fact
that in his own state he had many
friends who were veterans on both
sides.
Gov. Davis took this as his cue;
during his address in the afternoon.
He said in substance that he con
sidered it a breach of good taste
for the governor of Nebraska to
come down here and discuss sec j
tional issues long since dead; that
he thought this subject should be
approached in gum shot's, and that
in every patriotic Southern heart
there was a shrine dedicated to the
Ijost Cause.
During this period of Gov. Dav
is' address the silence was intense,
and it was only relieved when he
passed to other matters. At the ,
j-otJcUisiyn of his address Gov.
Davis was greeted with prolonged
applause, and as he went down the
aisle an impromptu reception was
accorded him. He passed through
the throng to the cruiser Galveston
which vessel fired a salute of sev
enteen guns in his honor.
preferred death
TO THE CHAIN CiANO
- ^ j
Frank Ileinold of Rochester,
A’., committed suicide at Hot
&»]>rings, rather than work on the
fhuiti gang.
The deed was Committed in a
most ghastly manner, owing to a'
peculiar physical condition of the
man. Ileinold had an opening in
his neck communicating with his
windpipe into which a silver
breathing tube had been titled.
In this opening he inserted the
blade of a small pen knife with
which he lacerated the interior of
his throat, the blood tilling his
trachea, strangling him to death.

ALCOHOL TO SLPPLANT OIL.
Alcohol as a “trust buster” is in
prospect for Colorado, Joseph
Brucker, formerly editor of the
Staats-Zeitung of Chicago, is in
consultation with Colorado capital
ists looking toward the introduc
tion of alcohol into that country as
a commercial power product in
place of petroleum. He has se
lected Colorado as the scene of his
initial efforts because of the im
mense number of potatoes grown
there, the second grades of which
raa.v be turned into alcohol at a
profit. Plans are already under
way for the erection of a mam
moth distillery near Greeley and
for the introduction of German
methods into the use of alcohol for
lighting, manufacturing and me
chanical purposes. In the latter
country the tight against Standard
Oil has made alcohol its general
commercial substitute and Mr.
Brucker proposes simply to trails
fer old-world methods to the west
ern plains. Mr. Brucker and his
associates say that alcohol csn be
made to entirely supplant petrol
eum for every purpose for which
the latter is used, and that in Col
orado it can be made and put on
the market at a price less than
that charged for oil.

three bottles cured me completely."
A Policeman’s Testimony.
J. N. Patterson, night policeman, of Nashua, Iowa, writes: "Last
winter I had a bad cold on my lungs and tried at least a half-dozen
advertised cough medicines and had treatment from two physicians

and Tar and two-thirds of a bottle cured me. I consider it the
greatest cough and lung medicine in the world."
