Naomi Titles Killed Herself.
Despondency, brought on by the fear
0f impending insanity, caused Miss
Naomi Tilles, aged 28 and eldest,
daughter of Hon. George Tilles of 321
N0rlh Seventh street, Fort Smith to
shoot herself just below the heart at
1130 o’clock Thursday morning, death
resulting at 4:15 in the afternoon at
Belle Point hospital. The young wom
an was betrothed to James Ginocchio
of kittle Rock and they were to have
been married on the day before Lent.
Holding the point of the 32-calibre
revolver so close to her breast that
the report was not heard in the othei
part of the house, Miss Tilles shot her
self only once, then walked into the
room where her mother sat and said:
"Mamma, I've done it. I've shot my
self and am going to die."
At first she was not believed, but
upon examination it was found that:
she had indicted a death wound and
she was hurried at once to Belle Point
hospital, where she died.
While on the way to Electric park,
the principal pleasure ground of Fort
Smith, last May, Miss Tilles was the
victim of a serious street car accident
in which one of the more prominent
nerves in her arm was impaired. Dr.
Hines of Fort Smith, who attended
her. stated that the injury to the nerve
might lead to ultimate disarrangement
of the mental system, and she was sent
to Little Rock for treatment under Dr.
Dibrell, staying there the greater part
of the summer. Later she was taken
to Si. Louis to be treated by Dr. Tuhol
ski, under whose care she remained
about six weeks.
Shortly after reaching home, how
ever, she contracted a severe case of
la grippe, which seemed to irritate the
neurotic ailment.
During the last three or four weeks
she had been exceedingly despondent
over the thought that she was about
to lose her mind. She was in constant
fear that she would become insane and
be a burden upon her family.
First Hanging in Calhoun County.
Rafe Wood, a negro, aged 20 years,
was executed in Hampton Tuesday at
1 p. m. The crime for which he was
legally hanged was the committing of
an assault on Mrs. Fannie Dorris, a
white widow residing near I.it tie Bay.
The crime was committed on the night
of December 24 last.
Wood was given a speedy trial, was
convicted and sentenced on January
25, and Tuesday, just a month later,
the sentence was carried out. Wood
confessed while on the gallows that
he had committed the same offense
once before on a member of his own
race He then stated be would like
to talk more, but could not.
After the black cap was placed over
his face, he asked that it be removed
for a minute. His reguest was com
plied with, and lie asked the sheriff to
take his body home for burial. The
sheriff replied that he would not tell
him any lie about it, that his family
did not want him brought home, and
that he would be buried in the nearest
segro cemetery.
Wood said "good-bye," and the trap
was then sprung. He was pronounced
head in 1(1 minutes.
Although Calhoun county is among
the oldest in the state, up until this ex
ecution there had never been one witn
in her borders, except by mob law.

Will A. Mcore Killed By Charles P.
Meehan.
Charles P. Meehan shot ami killed
Will A. Moore at Cotton Plant at \
o'clock Wednesday morning. No de
tails can be obtained as to what led
to the difficulty, as Mr. Meehan has
made no statement. He surrendered
to a deputy sheriff shortly after the
killing, and is now in jail awaiting
a preliminary examination, when the
facts will probably be developed. Un
til he has advised with counsel
Mr. Meehan will not talk.
Mr. Meelnm is the son of a well

ton Plant, formerly of the firm of Mee
han & McGowan. He and the dead

and have been acquaintances all their
lives. Mr. Moore is survived by his

ties, the tragedy, so wholly unexpect
ed, created much sensation.

80 Bales to Memphis.
At a meeting of the farmers who
have cotton stored in the Farmers’
Union cotton warehouse at Arkadel
phia, which was held at the court
house Monday evening, it was decided
to ship 800 hales of cotton to the
Farmers’ Union Cotton Company at
Memphis, a concern which sells di
rect to the spinner. A representative
of the company was there recently,
and assured the directors of the ware
house that they could get a better
price for the cotton by selling direct
to the spinners, and as a result of
which the meeting was held.

posed building to cost between $5,
000 and $6,000. The new building
will have a burglar-proof brick vault.
Teachers’ Association Formed.
The teachers and school directors
of Arkansas county met at De Witt

cotton, stored by tlie members at
Dyer, was sold Tuesday morning to
J. L. Rea, local manager of the Les
ser-Goldman Cotton Company of St.
Louis, the price paid being 11 cents
on a middling basis. Mr. Rea also
bought 275 bales from the union
members at Alma Monday evening at
the same price paid at Dyer.
Court Adjourned.
There being so much sickness in
Grant county, Judge W. H. Evans, af
ter one week’s session, adjourned the
Grant Circuit Court, as many wit
nesses were unable to attend. Many
important cases had to go over to
the summer term. Jesse Harris was
convicted of horse stealing and sen
tenced to the penitentiary for one
year.
The Usual Result.
George Miller, a negro, was shot
in the neck and severely wounded
on Bob Tucker's farm, four miles
west of Keo, Monday. He and Barney
Tucker had been playing with the
pistol, and, while held by Tucker it
was accidentally discharged. Miller’s
wound is not necessarily fatal.
Cotton Arch Collapsed.
The big cotton arch, containing 150
bales of cotton, that had been erected
at Helena as one of the Mardi Gras
retractions gave way Thursday after
noon as the wooden supports were be
ing taken out and crashed to the
ground. No one was injured, but the
cotton was strewn over the street.
Much Wheat Sown.
A great deal of wheat has been
sown in Madison county the past
month. This is one of the banner
wheat and fruit counties in Arkansas.
Mineral Deposits Found.
E. C. Root of Hot Spring county,
was in Little Rock Tuesday, confer
ring with State Geologist Whitlock
concerning samples of graphite ore
which he found on liis farm and which
was pronounced to he of high grade.
Mr. Root is now attempting to And
someone who will help him develop
the veins of graphite, which he is sure
cover a part and possibly the whole
of his entire farm. Mr. Root states that
he did not go very far in attempting
to ascertain the exact extent of the
graphite veiu on his farm, but said
that lie had probed his land, which
lies near the northern boundry of
the county, at. three different places, |
about 200 yards apart, and had found
the vein of graphite at each place. He
states that he dug down in the vein
about one foot and a half at each
place, and in neither case did he suc
ceed in reaching the bottom of the
vein. Graphite is a valuable mineral.
It is used, in the refined state, for
lead pencils and for various other
purposes.
Fruit Crop Is Not Damaged.
Fruit growers at Siloam Springs
have made a careful inspection of the
fruit buds since the recent cold snap,
and report that neither the peaches
nor any other fruit has been injured.
C. M. Lee, one of the largest peach
growers there, said that he had care
fully inspected the buds and found
them in good ocndition. He stated
that he believed the cold weather had
been a good tiling, as it checked the
too rapid growth of the buds, thus
avoiding the danger of a late frost.
It is believed that tlie danger from
cold weather is about past. The rec
ords show that every fruit crop that
has been killed by cold weather was
killed at an earlier date than this.
The prospects for a heavy crop of all
kinds of fruit is very good, but the
peach crop promises to be an excep
tionally good one.
Safe Blowers Are Still Busy.
The postoffice at Charleston was
blown open about 2 o’clock Sunday
morning and $225 taken from the safe.
The safeblowers have escaped and
there is but little hope for their cap
ture as there are practically no clues
for the officers to work on.
Dynamite caps were used in blowing
the safe open. The caps were purchas
ed at a Russellville hardware store.
The money taken from the safe
was in small denominations.
Some money was found scat
tered along the railroad track toward
Fort Smith. It is believed that tlie
money was dropped along '-he track
purposely in order, if possible, to lead
the officers to think that the safe
blowers had gone toward Fort Smith.

United States Weather Observer T.
A. Collins, in charge of the Fort Smith
bureau, died suddenly Sunday after
noon while driving with his wife near

“I hear you have a new automobile,
old man,” said the motor-car fiend.
“What does, it look like?”
“Well, to tell you the truth,” replied
the amateur motorist, “it is as ugly
as a steam roller, makes as much
noise as a traction engine, knocks
over as many people as a freight en

street sweeping machine.
The motor-car fiend was wild with
enthusiasm.
“You don't say!” he blurted eagerly.
“Tell me where I can buy the same

Hog Cholera.
The greatest drawback to the hog
industry which breeders in this coun
try have to contend with is what is
known as “hog cholera" and “swine
plague.”
Hog cholera is a highly contagious
disease and unless checked is liable
to carry off a great number of hogs in
a very short time.
Mr. A. P. Williams, of Burnetts
Creek, Ind., tells of an experience
which he had with some hogs that
had the cholera. “Five years ago,”
says Mr. Williams, “I was in the em
ploy of Mr. J. D. Richardson, Lafay
ette, Ind., as his barn foreman. Some
fine hogs that I was feeding took the
cholera. I gave them Sloan’s Lini
ment and did not lose a hog. Some
were so bad they would not drink
sweet milk and I was compelled to
drench them. I have tried it at every
opportunity since and always find it

“Is this the police station?” in

OLD SURGEON
Found Coffee Caused Hands to
T remble.
The surgeon's duties require clear
judgment and a steady hand. A slip
or an unnecessary incision may do ir
reparable damage to the patient.
When he found that coffee drinking
caused his hands to tremble, an Ills,
surgeon conscientiously gave it up and
this is his story.
"For years 1 was a coffee drinker
until my nervous system was nearly
broken down, my bands trembled so I
could hardly write, and insomnia tor
tured me at night.
‘‘Besides, how could I safely per
form operations with unsteady hands,
using knives and instruments of pre
cision? When I saw plainly the bad
effects of coffee, 1 decided to stop it,
and three years ago 1 prepared some
Postum, of which 1 had received a
sample.
"The first cupful surprised me. It
was mild, soothing, delicious. At this
time I gave some Postum to a friend
who was in a similar condition to
mine, front the use of coffee.
"A few days after, 1 met hint and
he was full of praise for Postum, de
claring he would never return to cof
fee but stick to Postum. We then or
dered a full supply and within a short
time my nervousness and consequent
trembling, as well as insomnia, disap
peared, blood circulation became nor
mal, no dizziness nor heat flashes.
“My friend became a Postum en
thusiast, his whole family using it ex
clusively.
"It would be the fault of the one
who brewed the Postum, if it did not
taste good when served.
“The best food may be spoiled if
not properly made. Postum should be
boiled according to directions on the
pkg. Then it is all right, anyone cau
rely on it. It ought to become the
national drink.” “There’s a Reason.”

guard in the burned district to prevent
depredations.

WINTER WHEAT CROP
HE REALIZED $38 PER ACRE. HlS
OATS $37 PER ACRE IN SOUTH
ERN ALBERTA, WESTERN
CANADA.
Coaldale, Alta, Can., Nov. 19, 1907.
Sir: I beg to say that this year we
had 349 acres of grain, consisting of
197 acres of spring wheat and 152
acres of oats. The average yield of
wheat was 33 bushels per acre and
oats 74 bushels. We were offered
$1.00 per bushel for wheat and 50
cents for oats, making the acre val
ues for the two crops $38.00 and $37.00
respectively.
We also had 50 tons of hay worth
$13.00 per ton. and 500 bushels of po
tatoes, worth 60 cents per bushel, the
latter off 2Vz acres of ground.
Our best yields this year were 107
. cres of wheat, making 41 bushels per
acre at $1. 00 per bushel, would be
$41.00 per acre; 47 acres of oats, yield
ing 95 bushels per acre were sold for
50 cents per bushel. Proceeds, $47.00
per acre.
1 might add that 50 acres of our oats
were “stubbled in.”
During the spring of 1906, we hired
about 300 acres broken by steam. We
put in and harvested 55 acres of grain
last year, did the remainder of our
breaking, worked up the ground and
seeded this year's entire crop, put in
seven acres of alfalfa and five acres
of garden potatoes, trees, etc., all
with one four-horse team. During har
vest we hired other teams, but, aside
from this, and part of the breaking,
the one team did the work of raising
practically 19,000 bushels of grain,
worth $12,000.
Yours truly,
\V. H. PAWSON, JR.
