WRECK AT KNOBEl.
Memphis Special Ran Into Local Freight Train and Hurt the tngi-

Knoble, Sept. 20. 0.-One of the worst wrecks known to this sec tion occurred here Monday, when a special out of Memphis headed into the local freight, which was standing at the depot waiting for orders. Engineer Smith was asleep and failed to see the flag man or hear the whistle of the freight.
 The small engine of the special was completely telescoped into the larger one of the freight. Engineer Smith was thrown from his cab and sustained a number of injuries about the head and body, while his fire man jumped off, with a broken arm.
 None of the passengers were injured.

 The most sensational. incident was when Mir. Rogers said he was going to char ge the govern or with soliciting and accepting money from gamblers and others in Hot Springs to make his cam paign.
 ''The charge is a lie, " retorted the governor.

 The governor attempted to ask a question, but the crowd would not hear him and finally quiet was restored and the governor entered a denial of the charge made by MT. Rogers.

PROPOSES CANNING FACTORY.
Thinks Newport Would Be Good Location And Wants to Know if Such a
 Factory Would Be Supported.
NEwBERN, TENN, September IS, 19

NEwBERN, TENN, September IS, 1905. MT. Gustave Jones, Newport, Ark.
 Dear Sir-Have received one of the special editions of the New port paper. Strikes me you have quite an enterprising town, and all you need to perfect your town now is an up-to-date canning plant. Have you a factory that will give employment to the women and children of the town who want work and need some thing to do? If not, canning plant would be a great addition to your town. First to consider, have you a good farming section? Do your farmers work to make money or just to be farming? I find this the case in some sec- tions, but never advise putting in a plant where the farmers are not interested. The next con- sideration is help. It would re- quire from 50 to 75 women and children to operate plant pack ing from eight to ten thousand cans of tomatoes per day. This amount would require about 45O bushels tomatoes per day, and require about from 60 to 75 acres we'll worked and carefully han dled, which as a rule nets the the farmer from $50 to $75 per acre. If you are interested in an enterprise of this kind l shall be pleased to figure with you on putting in plant and securing a good, honest, practical man to operate same for you. Any in- formation will be cheerfully given. Yours truly,
 c. F. HOWARD.
