The Farmers Educational and Cooperative Union held a district meeting at New Prospect about three miles south of Strong last week. This was one of the biggest meetings yet held in the county. Delegates from thirteen local Un- ions were present besides several hundred farmers and their families.

About 11:5O o'clock Tuesday night during one of the hardest rains which has visited this sec tion in some time about thirty feet of the reserve pond dam gave way md the vast body of water with roar rushed out flooding all the lower sections of town and com pletely demolishing one house in which number of negroes were living and moving another occu- pied by a number of Mexicans off it's foundation.
 All the occupants of the wreck ed house were rescued with the aid of boats, two of which happen ed to be handy, with the exception of James Wilson who was probably struck by timber or otherwise injured. His body was found about a half mle north of the break We'd nesday morning which gave an idea of the crest and current of the water.
 All the moulds and large num- Der of patterns were washed away from the foundry and all sidewalks crossings and loose timbers were carried northward or washed up against the railroad tracks. Water was about four feet deep in the office of Supplyman George Humphries and the foundation un- der same was undermined, as was also one end of the machine shop store room.

Senator" vanti0Ok of Union.

Yesterday afternoon, for the first time probably in the history of the state, a member of the house appeared on the floor of the Senate and spoke to the members while the members of the upper body were in session telling them just what he wanted in respect to a certain bill. The hero of the epi- sode was Judge VanHook of Union County, and, what is more to the point, he got what he wanted.
 Immediately after the noon re- cess the Senate were considering the Abercrombie bill providing for the working of conyicts on the public roads Of the State s5cf amendments were being sent up exempting counties and 32 had been exempted when Judge Van Hook entered the chamber and asked Senator Martin to exempt Union. The senator from Pope stated that he believed that Senator Goodwin wanted the co,n- ty exempted from the bill. Some one asked whether Senator Good. win really wanted the county ex- empted from the bill when the representative from the county walked out into the middle of the floor and shouted:
 Il don't care what Senator Good win wants, 1 want Union county out of the bill.'
 The senate was convulsed with laughter, but the exemption was ordered as per quest.-Arkansas Gazette, Tuesday May z.

 The ice cream parlor, bakery, pool rooms and bowling alleys of P. w. Seaman & Son were flooded to depth of several inches, but luckily not enough to overflow the bowling alleys which would have been a serions loss. V. G.. Seaman had suffered an attack of heart trouble to which he is subject about an hour before the accident and was carried to the Union Ho- tel by Homer Hall who was com pelled to wade water over waist deep. Warren Sorrells assisted Mrs. Seaman across the same dangerous place.

 The work of constructing the break was commenced Wednesday noon and will be pushed to com pletion as rapidly as possible and the entire dam materially strength ened to prevent repetition of Tuesday nights disaster.
