Sometime during Sunday night,
"Chub," one of the leaders of the
Ruby Chief four, got loose in
Miners barn and while making
sundry Investigations of different
parts of the stable broke through
the floor into an abandoned well
and was found in the morning with
his nose alone appearing above the
level of the floor. 1t was a diff
cult task to extricate the horse, but
the feat was finally accomplished
after much labor. Contrary to ex-
pectations, "Chub" sustained no
serious injuries. He is valuable
animal and his escape is a matter
of congratulation for his owners.

Crowley Ridge institute was opened Tuesday. Septe mber r., as previously announced, for the term of 1e0l-2 with approximate and interesting exeE- eises. An unusual degree of interest was manifested in the informal exer- cises incident upon the performance Of the initial ceremonies. and many citi- zens. and especially the ladies, graced the occasion, and their presence was source Of pleasure and encouragement Go the faculty.
 Rev. ". C. Davidson read q chapter from the Scriptures and ofsrsd prayer. The minister's words were impressive and carried conviction to the hearts 1t the conclusion of Ere. Davidson remarks America was sung by the pupils.
 Rev. J. ]. Cornish, rector of the Church of the Good Shepherd, then made most appropriate talk to the children on Lessons of Obedience, after which the singing of hymns by the pupils closed the religious exer cises.
 Although the attendance has in creased to such An extent that the pres ent school building Is inadequate in many respects for the accommodation of the pupils, the school is more thor 0ughly and satisfactorily organized than ever before. Miss Irene Freeman IS in charge of the first grade, Miss Pearl Cripben ha. the second and third grades, Miss Lady Ingram teaches the fourth and fifth grades, Miss Mamie Spencer the sixth; Prof. Spencer tue seventh and eighth and Prof. Mathis the ninth and tenth, and in this order | aas Crowley Ridge institute been mos effectually organized. TIE TIMES is roud to know that our public school is l n charge of such an able and ambi- l tious faculty. Forrest City deserves he best of everything, aud in nothing l ls she progressing more rapidly than IL tue matter Of public schools, and noth | ng will add more to her prestige and | importance than the establishment ot substantial educational institutions. Just here we would like to call the | attention of the school board to the tact that the grounds of the school are not spacious enough for the accomme- ttion of the large number of chii- | iren, and We would advise that the ad joining lot. belonging to Mrs. Word, be
 acquired and that the play grounds bt | niarged. It Is most important for the
 growth and development of the chi- iren, both mentally and physically. l .hat during the recess hours they b.
 given plenty of latitude for the indul
 tence of outdoor sports and vigorous | .Xercise. This is d matter not to be
 ightly considered. The present en gtosure keeps the pupils cramped.
 whereas if the adjoining lot were
 aken a respectable playground could
 )r made. We urge the board and the
 ,atlons to consider and agitate thIs 1 natter.
 | The efforts of Profs. Mathis and l spencer to build up first class school
 toald be seconded by the board and
 he patrons of the school and the in-
 ,ttute building should be surrounded " all the beauties and conveniences
