Dow’s Case With Governor.
Little Rock, Feb. 8.—The
mandate in the case of the state
of Arkansas against John Dow,
negro, of Independence county,
convicted on the charge of mur
dering his wife, was this morn
ing sent to the governor’s office
from the Arkansas supreme
court, no motion for a rehearing
of the case having been filed.
The supreme court has affirmed
the decision of the lower court,
and the governor is asked to set
the day of execution. Gov.
Davis is today out of the city,
but on his return the latter part
of the week, some action will be
taken.
Small Fortune Awaits Claimant.
Hot Springs, Feb. 8.—If a
sixty-year-old woman who has
done odd work among Hot
Springs homes for the past few
years can be located she will
hear news which will cause her
olcTheart to flutter with joy, for
a small fortune awaits her at
Wilmar, Ark.
The detective department has
received a communication from
that village asking about the old
charwoman, who is said to be
heir to $2,150 and asking aid in
locating her.
The woman’s name is Fannie
Owens. It is believed that she
has left Hot Springs.
Gases Penetrate Glass.
With liquid air performing feats and
doing jobs for the scientific and in
dustrial worlds, gaseous glass is per
haps not amazing. Glass, the renown
ed experimentalist, M. Berthelot, ban
proved permeable to gases at high
temperature. At temperatures below
Its melting point glass has been as
sumed impenetrable by oxygen, nitro
gen and carbon monoxide and dioxide,
but between 550 and 800 Centigrade
glass tubing has shown itself permea
ble. This passage of gases through
slightly softened glass is compared to
the gaseous exchanges taking place at
the ordinary temperatures through the
walls of India rubber tubing and the
Importance is emphasized of this prop
erty of glass hitherto unsuspected in
many chemical and physical investiga
tions at high temperature.

Aunt Jane Is an old Virginia prod

Jane's mistress, as the former was clear

as a jobbing center and by reason
of its packing industries and has

years.

Prevent
Headache
We want you to know that
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills pre
vent as well as relieve head
ache, and that they leave no t
bad after-effects. We assure
you that if taken when you
first discover indications of an
attack, they will drive it away, ^
and thus not only save you ffle
misery and distress, but the
weakening influence of pain
upon your system. Used in
this way the attacks become
less frequent, and eventually
entirely disappear. They re
lieve pain by strengthening the
nerves and overcoming the
turbulent, excited condition,
which is the cause of pain.
“We used Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills
in our family ■ for five years, and I
would not like to do without them.
Before I found this remedy I would
have spells of sick headache so severo
that I would i be prostrated for as
many as 4S hours at a time. Tho
Anti-Pain Pills stop the pain in a
few minutes. I have a great deal of
neuralgia around the heart, and the
Pain Pills also relieve that. I now
take them when I think [ will have
an attack, and they stop it right
then. I also notice that I do not have
these spells nearly so frequently as
formerly.”
