Another Story of the Frisco Coming Il
Little Rock.
From the Arkansas Democrat.

From the Arkansas Democrat.
Again the periodical report comet
from Missouri, this time from West
Plains, that every indication now points
to the extension of the Salem branch OF
the Frisco system through south Mis-
souri, and north Arkansas to Little
Rock. The report further AYERS there
is every reason for believing that this
line will be built, and that at an early
date, too. All along the Salem branch
from Cuba to the terminus thousands Of
railroad ties have been piled up at
various shipping points. Word has
gone forth among the tie dealers to ship
out no more ties, as the Frisco has use
for them, and In consequence the rumor
is growing that the Salem branch is 60
ing to be extended. 1t Is fact we'll
known there is something doing at
Frisco headquarters regarding this ex-
tension. just at present the Frisco
system Is doing tremendous business
Since acquiring the Memphis route all
southbound freight shipped via Frisco
system out of st. Louis comes to Spring.
field and then over the line to Memphis
This extra amount Of business added to
the large volume formerly done by the
old Memphis route has caused such a
blocking of trains along the Frisco as
was never before known. The long
work Of grading the Eureka Springs
field causes much delay and big dis.
advantage to the Frisco In its Southern
trade.
Should the Salem branch be extended
to West Plains 1t would save the long
haul of freight and passengers around
by Springfield and at the same time give
the Frisco n much shorter st. Louis.
Memphis route and put that system In
direct competition with the Iron Noun
tain line for the southern traffic out Of
st. Louis.
News comes from Harrison that the
work Of grading the Eureka Springs ex-
tension southeastward from Harrison Is
being pushed with all possible speed
The matter Is being kept quiet but
nevertheless graders are at work twelve
miles east of Harrison, 1t Is also re.
ported that the line is being built toward
Yellville, and from there 1t will extend
TO Little Rock. The intentions Of the
Frisco management are to build from
Salem to Yellville, forming loop, EN-
bracing the richest mineral belt in the
southeast territory.

Crushed Under Their Engine.

Crushed Under Their Engine.
Sorrow was brought into two Van
Buren, homes Monday forenoon when
message was received from Wagner
that an engine had turned over close to
Ross section house between Wagner
and Inola, crushing under it the bodies
of Engineer Leonard Hutchinson and
Brakeman Jesse johnson.
1t appears that the engine which
pulled the local freight in charge of
Conductor Frank Woolum was at Wag-
oner when orders were received by the
crew to back to Inola to bring in pas
senger train No. IS, the engine on which
had become disabled. The engine
started back Eight with Engineer
Hutchinson at the throttle and Norman
Pedley on the fireman's seat. Brake.
man johnson was riding on the en-
gineer's side and Conductor Woolum
on the fireman s side. When near Ross
the tender jumped the track and the en-
CINE followed, turning over to the right,
burying under it the engineer and
brakeman, while the fireman and con-
ductor escaped, the former with some
slight bruises, the latter considerably
scalded.
The accident occurred at 9:15 A. NJ.
and 1t was afternoon before the bodies
could be removed from underneath the
wreck. A wrecking train went out
from here accompanied by Undertaken
Hunt, who went to prepare the bodies
when recovered.
AS soon as word of the accident was
received here, by order of Supt. Tyler
a special train was sent to the scene to
render such assistance as was possible
and bring back the dead and injured.
The bodies were not recovered until
about 5 P. NJ. and were Immediately
brought here and taken to Hunts I'M
dertaking rooms FOR preparation for in.
terrment. They were found to be con-
siderably bruised and burned by escap-
ing steam.
Tuesday morning the remains Of
Brakeman johnson were removed to
the home of his brother, and from there
taken that afternoon to Fairview ceme-
terry fer eternal rest.
The remains Of Engineer Hutchinson
were removed to his late home and
Wednesday afternoon, accompanied by
the members of the local lodge of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
and many friends, were taken to Fair
view for interrment.
The accident was one Of the most de-
plorable in the history of the division.
In moment, with barely warning,
two lives were crushed out, leaving
sorrowing relatives to mourn their
untimely taking away and forcibly cal
ling attention to the danger which con-
stantly surrounds those engaged IN the
train service.
To the bereaved relatives Of the two
men and especially to the bereaved wife
and children the heartfelt sympathy Of
the community goes ont. Their loss is
great and we hope they will find in Him

From the Philadelphia Bulletin
The manufacturers of Castoria have
been compelled to spend hundreds of
thousands of dollars to familiarize the
public with the signature of Chas. H.
Fletcher. This has been necessitated
by reason of pirates counterfeiting the
Castoria trademark. This counterfeit
ing is crime not only against the pro-
prietors of Castoria. but against the
growing generation. All persons should
be careful to see that Castoria bears the
signature of Chas. II. Fletcher, if they
would guard the health of their chill
dren. Parents, and mothers in particu-
lar, ought to carefully examine the
Castoria advertisements which have
been appearing in this paper, and to re-
member that the wrapper of every bot
tie of genuine Castoria bears the fac.
simile signature of Chas Fl. Fletcher,
under whose supervision it has been
manufactured continuously for over
thirty years.
