WAS DOCTOR
 LIGHTLE MURDERED !?

News reached here Monday of what points to a horrible crime in Searcy. The charred remains of young Dr. Lightle. who is well known to many of our peo- pie, were found Monday morn ing in the ashes of his barn.
 The doctors wife and baby were visiting in Little Rock at the time and he was seen at his home about midnight. He is supposed to have run in upon burglars at the house or barn, who murdered him and placed his body upon a stack of wood, where the flames might destroy all traces of his body.
 His watch and other valuables had been taken and his remains were charred beyond recogni- tion. A piece of his scorched vest could be recognized, and how he could have been burned in the barn is inexplicable except on the theory of murder.

CASHIER SHANGHAIED.
Excitement at Pocahontas Caused by a Letter From John
 J. Bispham.

Pocahontas, Ark, May 19. = There is considerable excitement here over a letter received from John J. Bispham, assistant cash fer of the Randolph County Bank. MT.

The letter bore no date and was mailed on an Atlanta and New Orleans train:
 My Own Dear Parents: :- I know you all are worried and grieved over me on account of my sudden disappearance, but it was anything but voluntary on my part, as 1 was tricked, knocked down and carried off, and today am in the hold of a vessel, a captive, and under stand the boat leaves today. I have one friend here whom I am depending on to mail this. He tried to mail one before and got a thrashing for his trouble. Am we'll at present but sick at heart. Escape seems to be next to i'm possible, but there will come a chance, so keep a brave heart and know 1 will get away as soon as 1 can. Please let Eula, my wife, know 1 want to write her too, but one may get lost or taken from the boy. Love to all. Your loving son, ''JoHN. /"

GRADES
 ON THE FRISCO.
Civil Engineers at Work on Line Reducing the Sharp Curves and Grades on Road Near
 West Plains, Mo.

Just why the Frisco officials contemplate expending several million dollars in changing the present roadbed is something few people understand, says the West Plains (Mo. Gazette.
 By doing so the distance be- tween Springfield and West Plains would be shortened eight or ten miles. The grades would be lowered and trains could be run with greater safety to passengers and less damage to rolling stock.
 At the present time sixteen loads of freight is considered good haul over the Ozark dvis- ion. Cut down the grade as it is proposed to do and the ton- mage can be doubled. This re- duction would pay for the i'm provements in a few years.
 Near Mountain Grove the sur veyors encountered the greatest obstacle, known as Whetstone hill. Two surveys were made around the hill, one missing Mountain Grove a mile and the other survey passing through the town.
 Several surveys were made in the vicinity of Cabool, one of which left the town off the line. The survey from Sterling down the divide went several miles west of Willow Springs. An other survey passed through the northern limits of the town.
 From Willow Springs south the new survey went directly through Burnham, Pomona and Olden, changing the present line but little. At Olden the new survey left the present roadbed several miles, coming" to the eastward and following the line surveyed two years ago by Capt. Clark of the Rock Island. The survey eliminates the heavy grade be- tween West Plains and Olden, and strikes the present roadbed three miles north of here.

IRON MOUNTAIN "
 TRAINS COLLIDE.
Freight and Passenger Trains Run Together Near Leeper. Fireman Jumped But En-
 gineer Was Crushed.

Iron Mountain passenger trair No. $, which is made up at Pop. lar Bluff and runs from there te St. Louis, and southbound freight No. 97, one of the heaviest through trains on the road, col lided while running at full speed near Leeper Thursday morning, says the Poplar Bluff Citizen Democrat, and Engineer Keith of the freight was killed almost instantly and five other men were injured more or less se- verely.
 The blame for the terrible ac- cident has not yet been fixed, but it is thought that a misun- derstanding of orders somewhere caused the catastrophe.
 No. 8. left here this morning with Conductor Hall in charge and Engineer Ed Walters and Fireman Green in the cab. At Mill Springs Engineer Walters was struck on the side of the head by the arm of mail switch
  and was compelled to give up his place to Engineer Hull, who happened to be on the train.
 The train was running along at a good speed when it came in sight of No. 97, running in an opposite direction. The engine crew of the passenger leaped from the window of the cab and rolled down the embankment, escaping with slight bruises. The fireman of the freight jumped, and in falling sustained a broken leg, but the unfortunate engi- neer of the freight was caught in the wreck and was crushed to death.
 Both engines were demolished, and several baggage and mail cars were derailed and more or less damaged. Conductor Hall received bruises about the head and face, while Leonard Gris- wold, the newsboy on the pas senger train, received injuries in the back. No passengers were hurt, only members of the train crews being injured. The wreck age piled up the track and it was many hours before the line could be opened.
 Number 2 was Jagged just this side of the wreck, and the injured people were placed upon it and brought back to Poplar Bluff. Nos. 2, 4 and 20 were compelled to go around by way of Dexter, Thebes and Bismarck.

5 ARKANSAS.
Miss II Gould Manifests Her Intere d Kindly Feeling for 5 by Attending
 Ark' as Reception.

1, worlds Fl Grounds, May P. Miss Hele1 Gould selected Ar kansas as tf only state whose reception sh would honor with her much d sired presence last Thursday 1t the St. Louis Worlds Fair.
 In conferring this signal dis tinction on the state, which was all the more pleasing because it was done as simple matter of course. Miss Gould said to a press representative: T have a peculiarly warm spot in my heart for Arkansas, because it is the state towards whose development my father spent some of the best years of his life. His first great railroad venture was made in Arkansas, and its welfare was dear to him. It is the only state reception l shall attend, not even excepting New York"
 Miss Gould stood for almost two hours in the receiving line at the reception given by the Arkansas Federation of Woman's clubs. She is a plump, low voiced, sweet-faced little woman apparently under 35. Her gown at the reception was of some simple black stuff relieved by a little white silk and a bunch of jessamine flowers. Word that she was in the building flew from ear to ear like the wind and even the state commissioners forgot their dignity to peer at her over the shoulders of the cluD women.
 It was easy to get an intro duction and Miss Gould's manner and speech was as free from as- sumption to a small newspaper woman as it was before presi- dent of the board of lady man. agers.
 Both President Francis and Miss Gould were in the building at once and the guests of Arkan- sas were sorely tried in the effort to meet or see simultaneously the two most notable people in St. Louis. The state commits
 sioners and the officers of the
 Arkansas Federation of Woman's
 clubs had great cause to be in
 high spirits over the extraordi-
 nary success of the entertain
 ment and the satisfaction was
 expressed in the happy welcome given even to the humblest guest. l NEWPORT MAN
