SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT
 ASSOCIATIONS.

The News is in receipt of the following circular letter from the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, which may be of in- terest to some of our readers:
 School Improvement Assoeia- tions are being formed through out this state. The idea is pop ular, the work and organization simple and results immediate and beneficial.
 A School Improvement Asso- citation is simply the banding to- gether of the school patrons, at first perhaps only few, to do something of practical value for the school.
 It may be merely cleaning up the school house, then the yard or placing few suitable pictures on the walls, but from these small beginnings the work grows "a library comes by natural growth, school piano, better equipment, improved sanitary conditions, till finally new, modern school houses, properly equipped, are built with the hearty cooperation of the patrons of the school. These results are III turn reflected in the home-life and so the work of dolng real, practical things goes on.
 Those who want to know more of School Improvement have only to write the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, Little Rock, for information. Two active organizers are now in the State organizing at the rate of ten new associations each week.
 An organization such as out lined above was formed at Prairie Grove recently by Miss Reichardt and Mrs. Clio Harper of Little Rock, Mrs. A. l.. Maupin being elected president and Miss Alma Sanders secretary.
 It occurs to The News that these organizations throughout the state ought to be able to exert wonderful influen:e for the improvement of the public schools.

Beware of Frequent Colds.

A succession of colds or a pro- tracted cold Is almost certain to end in chrome catarrh, from which few persons ever wholly recover. Give every cold the at- tention 1t deserves and you may avoid this disagreeable disease.

How To
 Gain Flesh

Persons have been known to gain a poundd day by takingan ounce of Scot' s Emulsion. It. is strange, but it often happens. Somehow the ounce produces the pound; it seems to start the digestive machinery going properly, so that the patient is able to digest and absorb his ordinary food which he could not do before, and that is the way the gain is made.
 A certain amount of flesh is necessary for health; if you have not got it you can get it by taking

FATHER
SHE SHOT TO SAVE
SELF AND SISTER
Comforts POIhamus and Says
She Committed Perjury, but
Verdict Is Against Him.
Especial to the Evening Star.1

BRIDGETON, Oct. 15.-Sensational
and dramatic features have attended
the trial in the Cumberland county
courts of Zebulon Polhamus, of Lees
burg, charged with assault with intent
to kill his daughters, Helen and Sarah.
The case got into court through Helen
having shot and nearly killed her father
at the time of the assault.
The State established that on the
day of the shooting Polhamus had been
drinking, and some one told him Helen
was to marry a young man he did not
like. Polhamus threatened to go home
and kill all the members of the family.
When he did reach his home he be-
came threatening. and Helen, in fear
of her life and that of her sister, shot
her father.
After testifying to these facts both in
the Justices court at the time of the
shooting, and in the trial yesterday, all
members of the family practically re-
tracted all they had said and said they
had committed perjury because they
had been urged to do 1t.
The girls became hysterical and Pol
hamus broke down and wept. Helen,
throwing her arms about her father,
wiped the tears from his eyes.
The jury returned a verdict of guilty
Of assault and battery.

New Directors Represent New
England interests.

LAWRENCE, Mass, Oct. 15.-Nine
new men, a majority of the board, will
nave seats at the directors table of the

suit of the annual meeting of the stock
holders today.
OF these newcomers four were placed
on the board at the request of John
l.. Billiard, of Meriden, Conn, who re-
Gently acquired nearly ITO, 900 shares of
Boston n Maine stock from the New
York, New Haven and Hartford Rail-
road, n the other five were nominated
by h old executive committee Of the
board. after consultation with Mr..
Billiard.
In addition to choosing directors
stockholders authorized the u
of $12. 900, 900 bonds to take up floating
Indebtedness.
The immediate effect of the changes
is, by the reduction of New York in
%terests, to make the control of the Bos-
ton and Maine more of a New England
affair than hitherto.

TRACTION MANAGER
DEFENDS CROSSING
At 'wF0URCORNERs'
Says Tracks Were Laid in Ac-
cordance With a Munich
pal Ordinance.

Colonel Edwin w. Hine, general
manager of the trolley departments OF
the Public Service Corporation, was
asked today what action would be
taken in reference to a statement IN
the county criminal court by Judge
Thomas A. Davis that the crossings OF
the trolley tracks at the Four Corners,
Broad and Market streets, is one OF the
worst death traps that can possibly be
imagined, and his order that the grand
jury thoroughly investigate the condi-
ton of said trolley crossing.
Those tracks were laid originally"
Colonel Hine said, 'in accordance with
provisions of an ordinance adopted by
the Newark Common Council specify
ing what the width between the tracks
must be, and also In accordance filed
with the secretary of state, with the
approval of Common Council, showing
the width that should be maintained
in the laying of trolley tracks. The
trolley company would have gladly
made the space between the tracks six
feet or more if the original ordinance,
or contract, required that should be
done.
when the old rails were taken up
and relaid by heavy trolley rails the
latter were laid, as the ordinance re-
CURED, on the same lines as the first
rails and tracks. If u company IN
dertook to widen the space between
tracks now the city might have some-
thing to say about a violation of the
contract"
