DoDDRIDGE.
A Rising Railroad City in
Sulphur Township.

The Texarkana & Shreveport
Railway is now running to Dod-
bridge, in Sulphur township, 28
miles south of Texarkana.
Already a depot has been con-
structed, and the town surveyed OH
into business and residence lots and
there is not a particle of doubt as
to it becoming a commercial place
Of considerable Importance. Sui
phur township raises from six to
eight thousand bales of cotton, we
are told, and nearly all of it will be
marketed at this new railroad town.
This, together with other products
of the soil, fine timber lands, etc,
will insure its making a live town.
For some time to come Doddridge
will be the southern terminus of the
Texarkana & Shreveport railroad.
Town is we'll located, on a high,
sandy plateau, four miles east of
Bright Star and three miles west of
Spring Bank; Kelly bayou, near by,
will receive the drainage and ofal
of the place
Work of opening out the streets
will begin at once, Opposite the
depot is "Fouke Place, a wide plat
of ground, upon which will front
the business houses, to be built at
first; then there are the following
avenues, running east and west;
Collins, SIay, Bryant, and others.
Several merchants are arranging
to locate there right away, and ere
another two weeks elapse, a half
dozen or more new store houses will
be in course of construction. One
or more saw mills are expected to
start up soon.
1t is estimated that not less than
1900 bales of cotton will be brought
to the new town this fall.
Now is the time to get in on the
"ground floor" as lots are going
cheap The first stores will reap a
rich harvest.

Georgia WOmen's Press Club withdraw
From the National Federation.

Georgia Women's Press Club Withdraws
From the National Federation.
Atlanta, Ga. March 16.-The Geor-
gia Woman's Press club will withdraw
it's membership from the General Fed
Grafton Of Woman's clubs for the rea-
son that the federation has just admit
ted into it's membership three clubs
made up Of negro women. This was de-
cided by the governing board OF the
club, which held a meeting at the Capt.
tai Female college. The board was COM
posed Of Miss Breck, president; Cornie-
stocker. Miss Ellen Dortch, assistant
state librarian; Miss Rosa Wood Berry
of Athens. Mrs. William King, Miss A.
+. Penn Of Monticello, and Mrs. Bascom-
may Brick of Americas. The club,
when 1t was organized, was asked to
join this federation, which it did. 1t
was one Of the first OF the southern
woman's clubs to take this action, and
Ii will be the first to withdraw from 1t.
The withdrawal was caused by the ad-
mission within the last three weeks of
three negro women's press clubs from
the states Of Indiana and Illinois. Miss
Brock opened up correspondence with
the officers Of the federation. She main
tanned that the members Of the Geor-
gia Woman's Press Stub were not
ready yet to belong toh a club that ad-
mitted negro women as their social
equals. The northern women main.
tanned that 1t was 10 admitting them
as social equals, but only as fellow
workers. A spirited correspondence has
followed between the two sections, the
southern women claiming that while
they were glad to see the negroes ad.
v%ancing, they could not afford to asso.
ciate with them and admit them as
equals In the same club.

STILL HOPE TO SAVE HARRY
Erwin Think He VIII Find That .Tiird
Man"

Minneapolis, Mimi, March 1G.-Harry
Hayward's lawyers are bound to keep
even Elder Stewards revelations
seemed to put the prisoner beyond the
reach of hope, and the public. con
ident that at as the young man's
guilt had been proved beyond doubt,
was ready for the hanging. Erwin and
his colleagues now profess TO be more
hopeful for their client than at n
time during the last few weeks. They
assert that new evidence has been dis
covered OF a character that substan-
tiates several important matters not
made full use Of In the trial for the rea-
son that confederation was lacking.
II was discovered that the street car
conductor. Hayes. OF whom SO minute
a description was given by the east side
hotelkeeper. Cunningham, is In a fair
way Of being run to earth. Mr.. Erwin
was convinced all through the ease that
If Hayes was not actually the mystic
rious third man to whom he persistent
ly referred, he at least had an Intimate
relation to the case in some way. All
efforts to discover the whereabouts Of
this man, however, proved fruitless,
and it was even claimed I'm some qua
lfIS lndi sutH a. man UtNt1 tNlHttu. II
is now held that the man who In Min
neapolis passed under the alias OF
Hayes is a night worker. well known
To the police. and hat he is known as
Riley to the police authorities OF Chi
cago. and by that name as well as sew
eral other aliases in both Minneapolis
and ST. Paul. When called Mr.. Erwin
at first refused To talk about the Hay
ward case at all, but on being questioned
admitted that the man Hayes had been
identified as a crook named Riley, and
that it was highly probable that he
might be arrested before long. Mr..
Erwin refused To say how this informa-
ton had reached him, but declared that
there was no doubt OF It's correctness.
An additional and important matter
has come to light from the investiga-
ton of "A letter received by Henry
Johns. the st. Paul attorney. This let
ter was from a well known lawyer,
who asserts that Miss Cling was pointed
out to him by "A friend one evening in
st. Paul, and at this time she was ac-
companied by the same iron gray haired
individual that bobbed up SO many
times in the case. The attorney asserts
his ability To prove by the friend who
was with him hat night, now absent
from the state, who the man is who was
in Miss Ging's company.
