READY TO LAUNCH ' A GREAT WARSHIP Dreadnaught Texas Will Slip Down the Ways, May 18 Immense Battery. (National News Association) NEWPORT NEWS, Va., May 11. Thousands of workmen are busily engaged today in putting" the final touches on Uncle Sam's latest sea fighter, the gigantic battleship Texas, which will be launched from the Newport News Shipbuilding Company's plant, on the afternoon of May 18. The launching of the Texas will add first class battleship number 35 to the naval fighting force of the United States. The Texas will be equipped with every modern appliance, rendering her able to cope with any vessel on the seas, and her launching will be the occasion for gathering together the moat distinguished company that ever attended a similar event in the United States. - The guests will include President Taft; Secretary of the Navy, Meyer; Admiral George Dewey, Governor Colquit, of Texas; Governor Mann, of Virginia; Chief of the Bureau of Navigation, Rear Admiral Phillip Andrews; Chief of the Bureau of Steam Engineering, Rear Admiral Hutch I. Cone, and about twenty prominent members of the House of Representatives and the United States senate. Little Miss Claudia Lyon, daughter of Col. Cecil Lyon, the Republican national committeeman from Texas, will be the sponsor for the new sea fighter, and in spite of the agitation for the use of water, champagne will be the fluid that will first dampen the prow of the new battleship. The Texas, which is to be fitted up as a flagship will cost in the neighborhood of 110,000,000, of which $5,830,000 will be expended on the hull and machinery and the remainder on the ar mament and other equipment. When ready for sea she will be 565 feet long, 95 feet inches broad on the load water line, with a draft of 28 feet, 6 Inches and a normal displacement of 27,000 tons. Her length over all will be 573 feet and her displacement with a full load will be 28,367 tons. Her estimated trial speed will be 21 knots.

Be (Xational News Association) JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., May 11. ! Probably one of the most unique edu cational events ever held in thl3 country will be the State spelling contest to be held in this city next Monday, the opening day of the annual conven tion of the Missouri association of county superintendents. At last year's meeting of the superintendents the decadence of spelling was generally deplored and the idea of a State spelling "bee" was hit upon to stir up interest in this particular branch of study in the public schools. Every county of Missouri is expected to be represented in the contest by one public school pupil, who must not be further advanced than the eighth grade. The representatives already have been selected in county elimination contests. Each par ticipant in the State competition will be given fifty words to spell orally and another fifty to be written. The winner of the State spelling championship will be given $100 in gold. Smaller cash prizes will be given to the pupils who come out second and third in the competitions. The Fathsr of Tsrror. The father of terror" is the name the Arabs have given to the sphinx. Jt stands today even as it has done for thousands of years, though the exact date or century of its construction none can say. It Is not only the oldest monument in the world, but the largest as well. It is carved wholly from a mass of solid natural rock, with the exception of the forepaws. which are built np with blocks of stone. It measures more than a hundred feet in length and is impressive and awe inspiring because of its stupendous sixe.

AT THE MURRAY NEXT WEEK.

TELLS OF WORK IN SUFFRAGE Mrs. Emily Yeo Gives Interesting Address Before Franchise League. The pioneer movement in this county and reminiscences of early work ers for woman's suffrage, occupied the attention of those attending the semi annual monthly meeting of the Franchise League which was held yester ; day afternoon in the lecture room of the Morrisson-Reeves Library rage movement throughout the country, her former residence in New York and travels abroad having given her the privilege of meeting and knowing many of the noted workers, including Susan B. Anthony, Lucretia Mott, Mrs. Chapman Catt, Dr. Anna Shaw, Mrs. Clarence Mackay and many others prominent in this and other fields of public and philanthropic endeavor. Mrs. Yeo's conversational manner of address and her gracious personality lent added interest to her talk and her point that civic responsibilities were analagous to the domestic, in that no home was complete without both the masculine and feminine element and that the government was but a partial expression at present of the public will, was admirably emphasized. The Fight Against Vice. The speaker also referred to the national movement for the suppression of vice and to the organ "Vigilance" ! edited by the National Vigilance Association one of whose officers is David Starr Jordan. Mrs. Elizabeth Harned, one of 'the best known women of Wayne County, prominent in the early suffrage movement and affiliated with the literary interests of this city, was unable to be present but an Interesting paper concerning the pioneer aspects of woman's suffrage in this county, prepared by her, was read by her daughter, Miss Sarah Harned. Mrs. Harned paid a high tribute to the late Mrs. Louise Vickroy Boyd stating that: "The first league or association formed for woman's suffrage was inaugurated in Dublin, Indiana, of which Mrs. Louise V. Boyd was the prime , mover. She was a woman of remarka ble courage and vigorous intellect and, with tongue and pen, worked in behalf of her sex during her long life. She was identified with all the leaders of j the suffrage movement including Lucy Stone and Henry Blackwell, founders and editors of the 'Woman's Journal." "We had Lucy Stone with us for one week in Dublin and Cambridge. Susan B. Anthony came and delivered one lecture in Cambridge. "The first meeting of this associa tion commenced by placing Dr. S. S. Boyd in the chair and making Mrs. J. H. Kinley secretary." Several new members were added yesterday. SHENK ENDS TOUR WITH MARY GARDEN J. Louis Shenk, the well known bari tone and vocal instructor in Earlham college, who has been on tour with Mary Garden for the past month, will return to this city next Tuesday. The brief concert tour of Mary Garden and Mr. Shenk has been a great success and ended last night in Springfield. Mass. "Miss Garden is a wonderful artist and is hailed with the wildest enthusiasm," writes Mr. Shenk who modestly says nothing of the part he has taken in contributing to the pleasure of the audiences who have gone to hear and see the famous prima donna.

T. P. A. Notes BY W. H. Q. "Yours Truly" sems to have been mistaken In the forecasting of events and the fond farewell I supposed I was giving the T. P. A. Notes" was out of place, and for which hastily written article I extend to president Harrington, the Post members, and myself a suitable apology. I am re-se lected to pen the T. P. A. Notes for another year. I think a mistake has been made but your honorable president so decrees with apparently no outspoken serious objection on the part of the post membership, so here I am "on the job" for better or worse. If not asking too much I would like to have the support of the officers and members for the coming year. When playing Rhum occasionally think of the press chairman, whose work is never done, and help his rocky road by giving him an occasional item. The committee on press the coming year will be composed of the following members: W. H. Quigg, chairman, E. E. Lebo, T. C. Harrington. M. L. Hasty, L. E. Turner. J. B. Hegger. Your chairman asks all the assistance possible from these gentlemen and feels sure he will get it. To the committee and members who so ably assisted to add to the interest of the T. P. A. column the past year, I extend thanks and assure them of my appreciation of their efforts. To the committee selected for this coming year I assure them of the same appreciation for their assistance that I know I will receive. Once more we record the passing of an Annual Convention of The Indiana Division T. P. A.. There convened at Muncie on Friday and Saturday, May 3rd and 4th 215 delegates composing the twenty second annual convention. Besides the delegates a number of members not delegates were present, as was also a number of wives and daughters of T. P. A.'s. That Muncie did herself proud, in the entertainment and reception of the visitors is putting it very mild. It seemed that everything that could be done, was done. From the time of arrival to the time of departure, some member of Post R. was ever on the alert to add to the comfort of your visit. To the la dies of Post R. especial mention should be made, for at no previous convention in the history of the Indiana Division has this part of the- programme been so very successfully carried out. The "Girls" of Post R. certainly have the entertainment idea down to a nicety and every visiting T. P. A. lady has nothing but praise for their most splendid entertainment. The convention passed off very harmoniously, nothing unusual occurring to jar the festivities of the occasion. Mr. Frank Haimbaugh, Muncie's candidate for state secretary and treasurer, was not elected, much it seemed to the disappointment of Muncie T. P. A.'s, and Mr. Haimbaugh in particular. However, Post R. should not take this as not showing proper appreciation of the sterling quality of their membership, their splendid entertainment, and the most excellent candidate they had up for election. Mr. Haimbaugh is a pleasing fellow, a hustler, and an application "getter" who has no peer. Such men are bound to be recognized in the circles of T. P. A'lsm, not only in the Indiana Division but the National Association. The defeat of Mr. Haimbaugh can only be charged to the fact that there was not a demand for a change of Secretary and treasurer in the Indiana division. Post R and Mr. Haimbaugh over-estimated their ability to show the dele gates why a change should be made at this time. We all know and like "Billy" Chambers. He has served us faithfully and well, and until such time comes tnat some dissatisfaction is manifest, or Mr. Chambers declines to have the position, another man stands poor show at election, no matter who he is or the claims of his backers for him. Therefore, Mr. Haimbaugh, nor Post R. should not feel hurt over the situation for they did as well, and perhaps better, with their candidate than anybody else could have done. Post C's delegation on arriving in Muncie found that in event of Mr. Chambers's election there would be a vacancy on the Board of Directors of the Indiana Division. Some consultation on the part of Post C's steering committee, with the prominent members of the division,- developed the fact that for wise Council and the judicious handling of state affairs, no member stood higher than our fellow member Elmer E. Lebo. Mr. Lebo's connection with the State Division, in MY DOCTOR MIGHTY FINE Mrs. Rattie Cain of CarrsvlIIe Thinks all the More or Her Doctor Since He Advised Her to Take Cardul Carrsville, Kjr. "My doctor," writes Mrs. Hattie Cain, "who advised me to take Cardul, for my troubles, is a mighty fine doctor, and I say God bless Cardui and the people who make it. "Before I took Cardui, I suffered with female troubles for sixteen years. 1 would have to send for a doctor every three month, and ohl how dreadfully 1 suffered! I would cramp and have convulsions and it looked like 1 would die. At last 1 took Cardui and oh! what a surprise! 1 found it was the medicine for me! "From the first bottle, I began to mend and now I am well, can do more work, can walk and go where 1 please and it don't hurt me, and 1 owe it all to CarduL" Cardui helps sick women back to health. It has been doing this for over 50 years. It is not a laxative, or a heart or kidney medicine it is a woman's medicine. If you are a woman, try it. N. B. Wrftefc?

the past few years, made him desirable as a candidate and he was accordingly elected to serve two years on the state board. Post C takes no hesitancy in saying, that Indiana division has made no mistake, for men of Mr. Lebo's calibre on the board of a division is what spells success.

The next convention will be held in Fort Wayne. The boys anticipate this meeting with pleasure remembering well the splendid entertainment received there two years ago. There was nothing else to it, only the re-election of Al. Mendenhall as state hotel chairman. Al. has been doing things this past year, something almost unheard of in connection with that committee. We will venture to predict that with such men as Al. at the head of state hotel committee's, roller towles. poor beds, hold-ups, tips. and some other shortcomings some ho tels are guilty of will entirely disappear. G. A. Mendenhall stands high in the Indiana division as a "hustler," and a man who stands for advancement. Post C will vouch for him and no mistake has been made in his re election. Those white plugs of Post C topped the occasion at the convention. We ought to have a gray ulster and gray "spats" to go with them for next year. The boys of Post C were very orderly during the convention, even John Hegger, Let Turner and Ora Mitchell were on their dignity. However, for noise and being heard. John Shuttleworth of Terre Haute and Alex Hartman of New Albany make any fellow, or bunch of fellows In the United States, when it comes to noise, sound like a canary bird singing in a boiler factory, and John and Aleck were in good trim. Maybe that was what discouraged Post C's noise makers. While Muncie Is once more on the map as a wet town, T. P. A.'s seemed to pay no attention to this part of the city. No indulging was manifest, and as far as "wet goods" cut any figure the convention toad all the "ear marks" of a Methodist conference. Ralph T. Cheadle. of Frankfort, Indiana, unanimously chosen as the head of the Indiana division T. P. A. of A. for the coming year impressed everyone as being a very desirable choice. Mr. Cheadle not only is a very pleasing talker but has all the ear marks of exceptional executive ability. He is COMMISSIONERS SALE OF REAL ESTATE.
