that Hardin, or Blazer, was wanted in

sworn out and state officers were
on the hunt for Callahan's prisoner

hiding in the United States building,
though this could not be confirmed.

The Boil Weevil Convention

uc DOli w OWL OOut0ublOu
held in Shreveport this week is
considered by business and scien-
tific men. as one of the most i'm
portant meetings ever held in the
south, and the meeting was attend
ed by more than fifteen hundred
delegates from every cotton pro-
ducing states, and representatives
of the national government, all
having but one object in view, that
of stopping the spreading of the
boil weevil pest or its entire des-
truction. Unless something 10
done in that line, at the rate the
pest is invading the cotton fields
of Texas and Louisiana, It will not
be many years for the weevil to be
present in every cotton field of the
southern states. It is to be hoped
that this meeting will bear good
fruit, and will have as q result, the
complete destruction Of the thres-
'tening pest.
