CHAMPION JEFFRIES' ARM
Injure& Again in His Fight With
 Corbett.

A special from New York says: The punch that put Jim Corbett down and out in the arena of the Seaside Athletic Club last Friday night was by far less harmful to him than to the man who sent it in. The physical effect of tke blow lasted with Corbett about two minutes, but Jeffries' good left arm, which did the worK, is stiff and sore. Since he struck that blow be has never been free from pain. and an X-Ray examination shows that an opera tion on the elbow will probably be necessary. The original cause of the disorder in the joint was bout with the medicine ball while train- ing for Sharkey. last October. In a careless moment Jeffries caught the medicine ball holding his arm at the wrong angle, and the damage was done. Vigorous messages and a physical treatment relieved it some what, but the fight with Sharkey was postponed for a week on ac- count of it. Since that time be has suffered to certain extent with a sore arm. The fight with Corbett, in which the champions left arm worked like a piston rod for twenty three rounds, left it In such a condi- tion that it is almost useless. In a few days the surgeons knife will be applied and the champion expects to be freed entirely from any further trouble.
 The injury lies in the elbow at the function of the three bones of the arm. One of these bones, the doc- tors say. has been torn from its socket and has slipped down about aouarter of an inch. It's poir t presses against one of the others md prevents tke arm from being Enlightened out. To remedy this he bones must be laid bare, the one lut of place must be put back into

An Organization Perfected by Them
 and the School Directors.

MARSHALL, ARK, May 13.-The following resolutions were adopted by the Directors and Teachers As sociation of Searcy county, April 28:
 Be it resolved by the teachers and directors of Searcy county:
 1st. That we, being interested in the cause of education ana be- )ieving that a teachers and a dlrec tors meeting is one of the best means of creating an interest throughout the county, heartily endorse the call which our county examiner has made for such a meet ing.
 2d. Recognizing the fact Shat the success of a school depends largely upon the interest the directors manifest, and since they have ex- pressed willingness to learn more of tbelr duty, therefore we congrat. ulate them for attending a maeting which we trust will be for the up- building of the county,
 3d. We claim that our state is one of the best Tn the union, and we have reasons to believe that her educational progress compares fa- vorably with her sister states, as the important office of superin ten dent is being filled by man who has brought honor to himself and 10 the office, we therefore desire to thank him for his presence and en- couragement and hope that his visit has been as pleasant to hlm as it has been profitable to us.

A PECULIAR CASE. GAELiGHAN HEIRS LIFE iNUkANCE COMPANY IN
 THE COURTS. A COMPLICATED CASE Two Heirs People Fighting Company and the Latter
 Fights Them Both.
COMPLICATED CASE

The death of two people, s, 900 dollar life insurance policy and sev- eral persons claiming same, are the principal causes of peculiar and interesting law suit in the Jefferson circuit court. The complaints and answers of the several persons in- terested have at different times been published in the Graphic. The case is to be tried here today We'd nesday] beginning at 3 o'clock.
 Another interesting and unusual part of the suit is the fact that there are five legal firms employed in the case.
 The suit is one of many eomplicat- ed complaints and in whole is about as follows:
 Stephen Galllgan took out a s, 900 life insurance policy few years ago in the Franklin Life Company. He made the policy payable to bis wife, Mary Gallighan, but she died before her bus band, and therefore the policy was to be changed to another heir. Mir. Gallighan, having only ole son, Willie P, applied for change and asked that Willie be made tne bene- ficiary. Before he succeeded in get ting the policy changed, however, Stephen Gallighan died. This, of course, left the young heir in a very uncertain position. Rosa A. c alli- ghan, sister of Stephen Gallighan anu who is guardian for Willie, ap. piled for the amount of the policy. She was refused by the company, who claimed that Mr. Gallighan had made erroneous statements in.apply. ing for the policy. She entered suit to secure the $3, 900.
 Dr. W. P. Lawton, of Searcy, father of Mrs. Stephen Gallighan, who died and to whom the policy is still payable. also entered suit for the s, GOO as he alleges that he Is his daughters only heir and is entitled to the money. The jnsur- ance company is fighting both of the plaintiffs and refuses to pay either of them the amount named in the policy.
 Attorneys Austin & Taylor, Of this city, represent the Franklin Company. Attorneys Bridges < Woodbridge, of Pine Bluff, and Cy- pert & Cypert. of Searcy, represent Dr. w. P. Lawton and Judge F. T. Vaughn, of Little Rock, and White & Altheimer, of Pine Bluff, are looking after the interests of little Willie Gallighan.

Corn is generally coming up to good stands and in some sections it has been worked out the second time. Groth of cotton has been greatly re. tarded by cool nights. nevertheless the most sections the stands are far to good and the plant generally lcoks healthy. Cut worms are do- ing considerable damage to both corn and cotton. Wheat and oats doing well in most sections and are heading out nicely. Irish potatoes promise good yield in most localities, while in some few places the vines have been destroyed by potato bugs. Fruit prospect generally good, ex- eept apples which are falling from the trees.
