DROWNED IN GAN OF MOLASSES
Year-Old Baby Loses it's Life in Unusual Manner Saturday
 Near Cabot

Cabot, June 1.-The 12. month old baby of Mir. and Mrs. Henry Snead, who live about five miles north of here, drowned yesterday in a ten. gallon lard can which con- tained five gallons of molasses.
 The molasses was bought few days since and.was put in the lard can and placed in the kitchen of the Snead home. Yestesday Mrs. Snead was preparing dinner and had her baby in the kitchen with her. She went to the we'll to draw a bucket of water, and before re-, turning to the house stopped in the garded to gather some vege- tables. When she returned to the house about ten minutes after she had left 1t she was mortified to see the feet of her baby sticking out of the molasses in the lard can. She hastily grabbed the child from the can, but the little one was dead.

ROBBED CASH DRAWER AT DEPOT
Youth Allows His Desire For Money to Lead Him Into
 Serious Trouble

Billie Long was arrested and arraigned before Squire Tharp Friday on charge of robbing the cash drawer at the depot at this place Thursday night. The pre- liminary trial resulted in his being held to await the action of the grand jury. His bond was fixed at $500, which he failed to give, and was taken to Batesville Friday by Constable Clark and placed in jail.
 Long is only a boy about six teen years old, and is a son of Mrs. Emma Long, widow of the late T.. J.Long who lived near Oil Trough, the family having moved to New ark after the death of Mir. Long a few years ago.
 He secured only 35 cents, the cash having been removed from the drawer only short time be- fore he gained access to the room.
 The young man comes of an ex- cellent family, and there was no cause for his attemps to turn rob. Der, as the family is in comfortable circumstances financially and the boy was always generously pro- vided with spending money by his mother.
 The many friends of the family regret the unfortunate occurrence very much.

POOR CROPS IN JACKSNN

To The Newark Journal:
 Having been away from old Black River township three years, 1 thought 1 would write the paper, knowing that many of my friends take the good old Journal.
 Crops in this neighborhood, four miles south of Newport, known as the Island, are very small for this time of year. Cot- ton is just now being worked out with poor stands. Some here planted the third time and there Is scarcely any cotton in the lower bottoms. It looked like we were going to miss a crop, but the pros- pect Is better now. 1 was afraid the crops would be like the locusts our old friend Prof. Cash was tell ing us about in The Journal last winter. Perhaps you have them up there, but there Is none down here, and if your locusts have come I would like to exchange about seventeen hundred horned owls for pair, as they keep me awake night asking me who l am.

PLEASANT PLAINS COMMENCEMENT
Academy Closes With Appropriate Exercises After a Most Suc-
 CeSSful Years Work

icaSanC flalnS, June ll.-lC would be an injustice to our con- munity to fail to give public no- tlce of the closing of our Academy, which event occurred the last two days of last week. The commence ment sermon on Friday night, by Rev. J. V. Roberts of Bradford, who's theme was "The Force of Character" predicated on Matt. 5: 13 and II, was strong, forceful, practical and instructive, and the discourse was heartily enjoyed by a large and attentive audience.
 In this sermon Rev. Roberts delved deep into the practical application of life in its relation ship to the professional and com- mercial world and plead for the highest mental and moral attain ment for the home life.
 Several hundred persons gather ed in the grove immediately in front of the Academy building Saturday night and witnessed the efficient rendereing of a most ex- cellent program by the young peo- pie of the school. This program was of the highest possible order and was elevating and instructive to all present, and the universal expression is one of entire satisfac- tion. One of the most prominent parts of this exercise was contest of the nations as to which should receive the Grown of Liberty. The contest was before the Goddess of Liberty and was represented by 12 young ladies dressed in white, each carrying tEe flag of the nation she represented. The contest was spirited and strong and resulted in our beloved America receiving the merited crown.
 This closing is not without it's sadness, and the last scene played was not to the public audience, but after the curtains .had closed and the teachers and pupils were taking their last good byes, to go into different parts of the coun- try. The sobs and tears told of the affections kindled in the hearts of the participants of the school during nine month of hard and earnest. work. The tireless, persis- tent and devoted effort of Prof. Hickman has endeared his pubils to him without measure.
 This closes the first term of the Academy at this place, which has been doing most excellent work since last fall.
 This school is fixed feature and has the endorsement of all our best citizens who are making arrangements for large Attend ance at the opening of the term.

THE PASTORS COLUMN
Conducted by Rev. Jas. F. Jernigan in
 the Interest All That Is Good
FRUIT, BERRIES AND ELSE

The diversification of crops in this country is the financial solu- tion for the poor man. The cost of living is going higher and high CT and up to date their is no report from any body of scientists that mans eating capacity is being lessened in the least. He eats as much now as ever. His appetite knows no compunction of con- science, if, indeed, it has con. science, and he eats as much with corn at 50. 50 and 75 cents per bushel as he did when it was 25cts a bushel. In the fall of 1860, my father sold corn at 25 cts a bushel. It was gathered and thrown in pile in the field, and the purchaser took it there. Now it is quite different. Every pound must be weighed and sold accord
 ingly. Our fathers and mothers would hardly know how to get along these days with so many new-fangled ways of doing things.
 But it remains true yet, that all we eat and wear must come out of soil, or nearly so; and the earth Is the mother of all these good things
 Fruit of various kinds does well here, but 1t won't do we'll without attention. Cows, sheep, goats or mules do not pune threes nicely. They do a great deal of it though. Then it is said, ''oh you can't have anything like that here. " No, not with such carelessness. Wire fences are all the go and that Is one fence Sir William Goat can't climb, and mule can push over or jump. All who read are posted as to the great results from fruit and berries; and it don t take 13 months in year to raise and market these things. They grow while you sleep and those locali- ties where they have been tried have money. Take Judsonia where $10O, 1000 and more have been re- ceived this season for berries. That is poor county; soil thin; but adapted to berry growing. But that soil is no better for fruit, berries and vegetables than the soil all the way down from Batesville to Paroquet. Farmers you can be independent, and not raise stalk of cotton. The cotton grower is a slave to the cotton bosses, and will be as long as time lasts. They are going to give just what they will to give, and no more. And it's take that or wait, and do worse, usually. The man with diversified crop can be in- dependent of such shylocks. With the eating capacity of men un- changed and at this indulgent age of the world to eat, and eat the best, things to eat are going to command a good price if cotton is not more than four cent per pound. Most any ten acres of ordinary land can be made to pro- duce 50 bushels of corn per acre, and 800 bushels will run the aver age farmer together with hay, and pasture. Plenty of corn, plenty of hay, plenty of hog, plenty of grass, plenty of grease. and the man goes through the world sleek and fat. Then a good COW, we'll fed, will give the milk and butter of two not cared for. Then the marvellous hen, that lays and lays again. Then a good garden. Nv! My!

TRUSTED CLERK
 HEAD IF GANG
 WHO LOOT STORE
TURNED STOLEN GOODS OVER TO CHINAMAN TO BE SOLD AT
 HIS STORE
Member of the Gang Makes a Comics sion to Phoenix Marshal, Which He Later Repudiates.

Betrayed by the confession of his ae. complice, Joe Otero, was arrested in Phoenix Monday morning and charged with robbing the New York store of several hundred dollars worth of dry goods, but later in the day was dis charged.
 Otero has been employed for several wears as one of the trusted clerks of the New York store, and was not suspected until Saturday night of being implieat- cd in the steady disappearance of dry goods from the store.
 Saturday evening Albert Arvisa was caught with a wagon in the rear of the New York store, waiting to receive sto' len goods, which were to be handed down from the second story.
 Put through the sweating" process in the city jail by Marshal Moore, Ar visa confessed that for the past four weeks Otero has been passing stolen goods out of the rear of the store, which have been taken to Quong Sang Lees store in the southern part of the city.
 Armed with a search warrant, Mar shal Moore went to Lee g store Monday morning and there found part of a wagon load of cheap shirts, overalls and women s dress goods, which Charles Korrick has identified as having been stolen from the New York store.
 Oteros plan has been to enter the store at night, steal part of wagon load of goods, and take the booty to Lees store, where it has been sold, osero getting his share of the profits.
 see ChinaIaan will be prosecuted Tor receiy4Dg stolen goods.
 Mueb to the surprise of Marshal Moore. Arygsa Monday afternoon repu' diated that part of his confession i'm, plicating Otero, asserting that he had lied when he said otero helped him m tho robbery. He says he did the Job alone,
 AfteT he had brought Arvisa and Otero together. Marshal Moore became convinced tbat Otero is an innocent ,arty. and ordered his release, Otero being given his liberty. Marshal Moore stated that there is absolutely nothing to connect Otero with the thefts and hat all the suspicion against him has been caused by Arvisa's lying comics sion.
