FREIGHT TRAIN WRECKS HERE Several Cars Derailed Saturday
 Morning. Tank Car of Coal Oil Burst and Citizens Supply Themselves with Large
 Quantities of the Product.

While going at a high rate of speed four cars of a south bound freight train were derailed and wrecked ill this city early Saturday morning. Three of the cars were tank cars containing coal oil and one of them was a box car loaded with corn.
 One of the oil tanks, containing about 5000 gallons, was punctured in the wreck and large stream of oil poured from 1t for several hours. The oil ran down the ditch along side the railroad embankment and was skinned off the water by many of the people. Several secured as much as two or three barrels. The oil caught fire in the ditch below the city Sunday and the flames ran so high that the long distance tel ephone wires strung over the ditch were burned into.
 Both the main track and siding were completely torn up by the wreck and traffic was delayed for several hours.
 Conductor Freidman was in charge of the train which was de- railed. He said that a broken fange on one of the wheels was re- sponsible for the accident.

TO UNITE THREE COLLEGES
Methodist Institutions in the State May be
 Put Under One Head

Pres. s. Anderson, accompanied by Dr. James Thomas and Hon. J. F. Giles of Texarkana, returned to this city yesterday after having attended meeting of the board of trustees of Hendrix College at Lit tie Rock Tuesday.
 At this meeting steps were talk en toward the ultimate union of the three Methodist colleges in Arkansas under one board of trus- tees. The colleges are Hendrix, Galloway at Searcy, and Tender son at Philadelphia. The trustees of Galloway have already advocat- ed this plan, and the Hendrix board adopted resolution appoint ing a committee to work out the details of the proposition and ask ing the board of trustees of Hen derson College to enter into the unified system which is proposed.
 If the movement meets with the approval of the trustees of Tender son College it is probable that Hendrix, Galloway and Tender son colleges will be placed under one board of trustees and one head as early as next December, as the proposed union will be brought before the annual conferences in November, and it is thought that they will ratify the proceedings of the several boards.
