You will probably receive from the
State and parish by July LIST, $500. This
estimate will be approximately correct,
so it brings the Board about even on the
business for the session. You should be
congratulated on this showing when we
consider the fact that the Board started
the session in September about $1,000 in
debt. All of these obligations have now
been paid in full.
| feel it my duty to call your attention,
officially, to the needs of the Newellton
High School. The Board should provide
an addition to the school building, as We
have % pupils crowded into a small room
lSx20 feet. The school needs more play
grounds, and recommend that you APP
point a committee of three, with power
to act to secure additional land.
You now own beautiful lot in st. Jo-
seph, and / recommend that some steps
be taken to beautify this lot, and to ulti-
mately construct building thereon COM
mensurate with the needs and import
ance of the school.
The ladies of St. Joseph, with the teach
ers of the school, through the School
Improvement Association, have planted
some trees, and contemplate other i'm
prOvements. This movement is commend
able and should have the encouragement
of the Board. therefore recommend that
the Board make an appropriation to this
school Improvement Association, that
this good work may continue.
Respectfully submitted,
THOS. NJ. WADE,
Parish Superintendent.

DIR. E. D. Newell and Family Moved
to Chattanooga.

DIR. E. Dunbar Newell left st. Joseph
Tuesday for Newellton, where he joins
Mrs. Newell and their children for a
short visit to his parents before leaving
for Chattanooga, which will be his future
home.
DIR. Newell was born and raised in
Tensas Parish, in the public schools of
which he received his primary education.
He is graduate of Tulane Medical
School, and has practiced his profession
in this town and parish since 1900. DIR.
Newell, through his ability and skill as
a surgeon and physician, soon gained a
very large and remunerative clientele,
and through his,affable manner, his at
tractive personality and his ever ready
response to the calls of those in need,
has attached to him host of friends who
look upon his departure as an irreparable
and personal loss. DIR. Newell has been
identified with most of the progressive
movements of this parish since he re-
turned here to practice his profession.
He called the meeting to incorporate the
town. He was prominent in the organi-
zation Of the Bank. of st. Joseph, of
which he now holds the position of Vice
President. He is stakeholder and men,
Der of the Board of Directors of the Pa
nola Co., in the organization of which
he was also active. With number of
other prominent enterprises he has iden-
titled himself as an organizer, investing
in their stock and lending his ability to
their successful conduct. The first meet
ing in this parish to organize agood roads
movement was called by DIR. Newell, who
appreciated fully the Importance: of an
organized effort toward this end. He long
held the position of President of the Par
ish School Board, from which he recently
retired, and is at present President of the
Parish Board of Health.
In these many fields of usefulness, as
in the homes of those who required his
professional services, he will he missed.
To his new home the good will and
good wishes of those who know him will
follow.
DIR. Newell will be associated with DIR.
Edward I. Newell, with whom he has
been in partnership since coming to st.
Joseph, and it is easy to prophesy for
| this firm coypnosad as II 10 Of vo,,po mon
of experience, exceptional ability and un-
firing energy, career of marked success.
Mrs. Dunbar Newell, with her three
children, accompanies her husband. They
too will be missed by many warm friends
and admirers, to whom they have en-
deared themselves. We wish them God
speed on their journey, and all happiness
and success for their future.

Louis White, Jealous,
 Disturbs Negro Ball

The negro excursion from Pine Bluff yesterday created some excite ment among the negroes yesterday afternoon, when Louis White. anger ed because one of the visiting ne- groes had captured the heart of his fair dame and hied themselves to the negro "ball." proceeded to the ball with a six shooter and with persua- sion and some sheer force took his
 lady-loye back to her home.
 There, with licks. and kicks and d pistol he raised general hullabaloo that soon brought the officers. White, in the meanwhile. had taken his clothes and wrapped the revolver in them and left them in house near by When the officers arrived White started to run and Officer kincannon had to catch him. When caught, White claimed the clothes were back
 on the hill. but a few jerks and q punch or too soon brought out the information that they were hidden in
 house two doors below Grand ave
 nue where the trouble arose.
 They were arraigned in court this
 morning, but the trial vas granted 9
 continuance owing to the failure of
 witnesses to make their appearance.-

THE HOME PAPER

With all due modesty we believe the home paper is the most important in- stitution in any town. It is the me ,lum through which the town speaks to the outside world and is the means of communication between the people of the town and vicinity. Long ago, under inspiration, it was written. No man liyeth to himself.' and this truth was never more apparent than it is today. No man can retire from af- tivity and live. He must know what is going on about him, and the world must know what he is doing. The use of the newspaper is the best plan by which this is carried on.-OXford (OD News.

Finn has also wired for the return of the suits and other paraphernalia which the team has been using since he secured control of it.
