I was a nervous wreck.

REMARKABLE RECOVERY,
THANKS TO PE-RU-NA.
Mrs. Frank Stroebe.R. F- D. 1, Apple
ton, Wis., writes:
“I began using Peruna a few montha
ago when my health and strength were
all gone, and I was nothing but a
nervous wreck, could not sleep, eat or
jest properly, and felt no desire to lire.
“Three bottles of Peruna made me
look at life in a different light, as I be
gan to regain my lost strength. While
my recovery took nearly four months,
at the end of that time I was better than
I ever had been before. I had a splen
did color and never weighed more in
my life.
“I certainly think Peruna is without
a rival as a tonic and strength builder,
and it has my endorsement.”

sheriff and others of tne posse.
No indictment was returned against
Roberts for the killing of Kasinger, as
it was proven that hq, believed himself
to be acting in self-defense and did
not know that Kasinger was a mem
ber of the sheriff's posse.
The sheriff and deputies who were
only slightly wounded, are getting
along nicely. .Mrs. Roberts, who as
sisted her husband in standing off
what they claim to have believed was
a mob seeking their life, is seriously
wounded and has not been pronounc
ed out of danger.
To Extend to Hot Springs.
Project is now on foot to extend the
De Queen and Eastern Railroad, a
lumber road owned and operated by
the Dierks Lumber Company of De
Queen, to Hot Springs. The road is
now 31 miles long, and extends from
De Queen to the Dierks lumber camp.
About 45 miles more of trackage
would have to be built to extend it
on to Hot Springs.
The road, however, has the repu
tation of beiug a prosperous one, and
it is believed that it would pay if
extended into Hot Springs.
W. L. Greer Kills James W. Reneau.
Stabbed at ten different places in
his body, James VV. Reneau, a brake
man on the Iron Mountain, who lived
at 102 North Pulaski street, Little
Rock, died between 2:30 and 3
o'clock Thursday afternoon from the
wounds which were inflicted by a
steel paper cutter in the hands of
W. L. Greer, a well-known collector
of Little Rock, in Greer's office, room
No. 12, Fulk building, just a short
time prior to his death. Blood poured
profusely from every one of the ten
wounds, and Reneau lived but a short
nervous breakdown. She did not go
•way to a sanitarium, and spend hun
dreds of dollars for a cure. She just
staid at home, took Peruna, and in four
months weighed more than ever in her
life, had a splendid color, life looked
bright to her. Peruna did all this for
her. What more could be expected of

Man-a-lln the Ideal Laxative.
Progress In Fioriaa.
Gov. Broward, of the state of Flor
ida, is noted as an advocate of state
prohibition of the liquor traffic. A
Prohibition amendment was narrowly
defeated in the state legislature re
cently, being favored by 35 out of the
42 votes necessary for the enactment.
The vigorous campaign carried on by
temperance forces of this state has
placed it in the forefront of the states
enacting against the drink traffic, j
County local option has been secured :
in 27 out of the 45 counties of the
State.
Drink Taxation In Great Britain.
According to a recent statement of
the chancellor of the exchequer, the j
average taxation per head In Great !
Britain for alcoholic drink and licenses
Is approximately 17s 7d on an estl- j
mated population of 43,643,00. The al
coholic strength of beer and wine
varies considerably and there are no
statistics, at present, of the quanti
ties at each degree of strength which
would admit of the number of gallons
of proof spirit being given with ac
curacy.
ume alter ine culling, wntcn termi
nated an encounter between the two
men, caused by trouble between them
over the collection of $16.40.
Greer was arrested shortly after
the cutting, making no attempt to
escape, and is now in the Pulaski
county jail, held on the charge of
murder, pursuant to the recommenda
tions of a coroner’s jury, which, after
listening for two hours late Thurs
day afternoon to evidence in the in
quest over Reneau’s body, returned
the following verdict:
“We, the jury, find that J. W.
Reneau came to his death from knife
wounds at the hands of W. L. Greer,
while being held by Miss Cora David
son. We, the jury, find the killing
unjustifiable, and recommend that
W. I,. Greer be held to the grand jury
without ball.”
Miss Davidson is the stenographer
for Mr. Greer, and, according to her
own testimony, struggled with Re
neau while he and Greer were down
together on the floor of the office,
and with both hands held one of Re
neau’s hands, which she and W. T.
Tucker, attorney in room No. 11 of
the Fulk building, swore held a gun.
She testified that Reneau started
the trouble in the office by knocking
greer to his knees, and further testi
fied that Reneau then seized a gun
belonging to Greer, which was lying
on the table. She told the coroner's
jury that immediately after Reneau
seized the gun, she grabbed the hand
holding the weapon and struggled to
keep him from using it. She swore
that she did not see Greer stab
Reneau; that she did not see the

of another person who. had come into*
the room; that she saw blood during,
the conflict, but did not know where,
it was coming from, and that Greer
did: not touch the revolver.. She was i
the only witness to the encounter
from the start.
Tucker, who testified that he enteir
ed the room fsom his apartment af
ter hearing a crash, swore that he (
did not see the knife in the hands erf
Greer. He testified, however, that
Miss Davidson was struggling with 1
Reneau, holding with both hands the
hand which held the revolver.
According to the testimony at the
inquest, Greer had made several at
tempts to collect money, amounting
to $16.40, from Reneau, the latter
claimed that he did not owe the
money. Reneau called at the office
of Mr. Tucker Tuesday, and the two
had trouble then over the matter.
That Greer and Reneau would have
serious trouble has been feared by
friends of both parties for some time.
W. M. Ballard, 2024 Ringo street, ]
testified at the inquest that Reneau,
in conversation with him Thursday
morning said that Greer “had it in
for him,” and that “We might as
well have it out.” He also testified |
to having talked with Greer after
ward and warned him, and that Greer
said:
“He won’t monkey around me, or I ; i
v> ill ivili mill.
Greer garnished Reneau's wages at
! two different times.
i Thursday afternoon, between 2 and
2:30 o'clock, Reneau walked into
Greer’s office. The testimony at the
inquest was to the effect that Reneau
refused to sit down when invited to
do so by Greer, but that instead he
immediately asked Greer if he in
tended to keep on trying to collect
the money in question and how much
he wanted.
Greer, according to the testimony,
said that he wanted $16.40.
“You are going to demand $16.40,
are you?” asked Reneau. Greer re
plied that he was, whereupon. Miss
Davidson testified, Reneau knocked 1
Greer down on his knees. The crash
was heard by Tucker, who rushed
; into the room.
About the same time a revolver
j came flying through the glass in one '
of the office windows and dropped to
the sidewalk below, where Judge
Brown was standing. He rushed up
stairs, followed by Mr. Wells. They '
found Reneau cut in a number of ;
places and bleeding freely. He died '
within a few minutes. A physician
was called, but he could do not good.
Reneau never uttered a word after
they reached the room.
State Sanitation Society Proposed.
The organization of an Arkansas ,
Sanitation Society, to be composed of j
the members of Boards of Health t
throughout the state, property owners, t
doctors, lawyers and business men and (
to have for its purpose the prevention £
of disease by sanitation, is now being ,
talked by many physicians through- (
out the state. t
Definite steps toward the organiza- ,
tion of such a society will probably f
be taken soon. t
Already Dr. J. C. Minor of Hot j
Springs, major surgeon of the Arkan- j
sas Xatonal Guard, whose methods
in keeping the Arkansas encampment j
in perfect sanitary condition at Leon f
Springs, Tex., brought forth many (
compliments from regular army offl- ,
cers, has taken up the project and is (
pushing it as rapidly as possible. He ,
has announced that he will attempt to j
interest state and municipal officers < (
in the movement. <
Concerning; the project and the com
ing tuberculosis congress at Wash
ington, D. C„ which Dr. Minor will at
tend as one of the delegates from Ar
kansas, Dr. Minor has the following
to say:
“In accepting the commission to rep
resent the state of Arkansas at the
, International Congress on Tuberculo
1 sis in Washington now assembled I
J desire to say that the subjects to be
i considered there are necessarily so
; wide in scope, both scientifically and
practical, that I will be unable to take
interest in any but the practical pa
pers, believing that such attention can
be better transmitted to the people
of our state and give more satisfactory
returns in the way of preventing dis
; ease. I presume the other delegates
will look after the scientific end of
I it.
“To assist in the practical part of
the great work, I am going to ask the
press to advise all state and munici
pal officials to become interested in a
State Sanitation Society, the society to
be composed of the members of Boards
of Health throughout the state, togeth
er with property holders, doctors,
lawyers and business men. The or
ganization should meet in general con
vention once a year, and discuss the
points of interest presented by local
or municipal boards.
“The state organization should be
encouraged by the legislature. All
practical work done by the organi
zation will be appreciated by the in
