ONE YEAR FOR BARKER
Enters Plea of Guilty and Receives Sen tence With Tears in Eyes
 Criminal Cases Scarce.

Judge Steel opened circuit court Monday, and at once called up the criminal docket. After calling cases for an hour or more the court was unable to find one in which the parties were ready for trial. In fact the criminal docket is exceedingly slim. There are a few old cases for small of- lenses where the witness or de. fendants, or both have gone away or are dead, and some new ones not ready for trial. Judge Steel remarked that "it is good point for Polk county that the court could not find case to try on the first day." and adjourned court until tomorrow.
 Before the adjournment Geo. Barker, who cashed the worthless check on the Graud Leader, en- entered a plea of guilty to the charge of obtaining money under false preteuses, and Judge Steel passed sentence, giving him one year in the peniteutiary. His honor, in passing sentence, gave Barker severe lecture for dis. gracing the ministerial pfofes- sion. The prisoner listened with his eyes resting on the judge and tears trickled down his cheek.
 The charge against Richard Doran for cutting his fellow pipe line workers while engaged in a drunken fight March l2, was re- duced to aggravated assault, and he was given five days in jail and $50 fine.
 The fact that Doran bears good reputation with the pipe line people and was highly spok- en of by the foreman of his crew; also that the injured parties have left here, caused Doran to be dealt with so lightly.

WORK FOR TEACHERS.
Prof. Adams Says All Must Take Ex- animation in Agriculture in June
 Text Books.

Editor Star:-I have received many inquiries from teachers throughout the county concern ing the teaching of agriculture in Polk county during next year. I have a notice from Geo. B. Cook, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, stating that the law requires all teachers to pass in this branch, regardless of the cer- tificate each teacher may hold. During the June institute, which is held June 10 to l6 inclusive, is the time set for holding this ex- animation. All teachers who are entitled to have their certificates renewed will be examined in this branch and have the grade added to their license.
 The manuals this year will con- tain this subject and will cover the questions asked iu the exam ination. The text used by the State Superintendent to prepare this work is Ferguson X Sener's "Eiementary Principles of Agrl. culture"
 Tn S book will be for sale at the bookstores in Mena, so any one wishing to purchase the text can secure the same without sendinE away. Many teachers have writ ten asking for manuals.
 I have not received these from the State Superintendent yet, but will send them to those asking for them as soon as they arrive.

TOLD ABOUT CREAMERIES
V. A. Hooper, Expert From Fayette- vile, Tells Farmers and Business
 Men of Their Value.

About thirty farmers and busl ness men were at the court house Saturday to hear V. A. Hooper, a creamery expert of Fayetteville, tell some of things he knew about creameries and their value to a community. Martin Nelson, who was to have talked, could not come, so MT. Hooper was given the whole time and gave lots of informa tiou on the subject.
 In his talk he gave figures showing how the output of the cows around Fayetteville had been increased by proper feeding and how the stock itself had been bettared by proper care. In con nection with this he siid that about four years ago that a COW could be bought around Fayette yille as low as S20, while now the minimum was about $35. He told what could be expected in start ing a creamery, saying that T large profit should not be looked for during the first year. It IS like most every business in that it requires time 10 get 1t worked up. However, after it got 10 go- ing fair profit could be looked for, as there is always a good de- maud for the products. The profit is not all in the earnings oi the creamery. The building up of the stuck and couotry in gen. eral is very valuable.
 The boosters for a creamery here are planning to have meet ing at the court house next Sat UT lay, when some step will prob ably be taken toward the estab' lishment of one.

$2,OOO,OOo FIRE
 AT LAKE CHARES
Flames Sweep Over More Than Twenty Blocks and Render Several Thou
 sand Persons Homeless.
ORIGIN OF FIRE UNKNOWN
Many Houses are pynamited, But the Showers of Sparks Defeat Plans of
 Those Fighting the Flames.

Lake Charles, La., April 24.- Famed by a high wind, a fire which broke out here shortly after 4 o'clock yesterday after. noon, swept over twenty or more blocks ot the city, destroying sev. eral hundred buildings aud re- su ting Tn property loss estima. ted at g, 1000, coo.
 Two thousand persons have been rendered homeless.
 It was almost s o'clock tonig ht when the fire, which followed d a uortheasterly direction from the business section, finally reached the outskirts of the city, burning itself out.
 Other Cities Asked to Send Aid
 When it became apparent thai the local fire department could not cope with the blaze, requests for aid were wired to Beaumont aud Orange, Tex.,a d Jennings, La., all of which were in a radius of fifty miles of Lake Charles. The Southern Pacific railroad offered special trains to bring the volunteers from neighboripg cities.
 Many houses in the path of the flames were dynamited, but show CTS of sparks were swept beyond the gaps thus made, igniting the building on the farther side.
 Two Miles of City Fire Swept.
 Within a short time the wind had driven the fire over a space of two miles in length, leaving mass of ruins in its wake.
 While many of the buildings destroyed were merely frame cot tages, scores of handsome struct- ures also fell prey to the flames. The city hall, the handsome Cal casieu parish court house, the Clare hotel, churches, stores and warehouses were reduced to bare black walls and smouldering heaps of ashes within two hours after the fire started.
 Starting in the opera house in Rival street, near Pujo, the fire spread to adjoining buildings, burning out the north portion of the city's business section and then sweeping into the residence section.

HT ulotu'
 One of the most disastrous ~recks in the history of the x q $ rdilroId oc ccurred Sat 1Nday night at about l0:50 4c'ock when two freight trains met on the main line at Page. Three men were killed and two uere injured and, after tbe sm ash up, fire added to the destruction, Burning several cars.
 $ The dead are: Engineer J. w. Bram and Harry Varley of Meua, Ind W. c. Whitehouse, who is Rock Island brakeman and mad Been in Mena for several days boking for work.
 The injured men are Fireman Bud Embry and Brakeman G. A. Johnston.
 Embry received a broken arm 3ud was badly cut and bruised. Pete Little and Charles Foster of lena, went north Sunday to &ke him to the hospital at Kan
 s City. He jumped from the &pgine when he saw the crash
 as coming.
 # Johnston, who was the head Brakeman on the north bound lraiu, also jumped and his hand 4ud arm were bruised by the fall. He came into Mena.
 z The trains that were wrecked Fere No. 5l, south bound, in eharge of Engineer Cram, Fire nan Wallace Cox and Conductor D. E. Ross, and extra north SIS ln charge of Engineer Bolton, Fireman Bud Embry and Con- 2uctor F. K. Mccoy.
 1 No. 5l was standing at Page, waiting for SIS to pass. When BIS came, it was at full speed, and Cram called 10 his fireman, K. ". Cox, to jump, which order he Instantly obeyed, escaping injury. Cram then released his brakes, re. |Fersed the engine and opened the Throttle. Then he attempted to get off of the engine, but was too 4ate, only getting his head and |an arm out, his body being |caught between the cab and the bender. He was crushed almost |fiat and died instantly. Harry Varley was at Page, re- Burning from Ft. Smith, where ne had been for several days. He had gotten on the engine only a lew seconds before the crash to talk to the fireman and engineer. When the engines hit the coal gate broke and the coal crushed him up against fire box. The water and steam pipes broke, and besides being crushed, he was badly scalded and probably died almost at once.
 The engine SIS, coming down grade, evidently had gotten out oi control of Engineer Bolton, and he could not stop in time to asoid a collision. Bolton and HIS fireman, Bud Embry, both jumped. Bolton was uniuiured, out Embry was not so lucky.
 "nltehouse, who was killed, was on the engine with them. Ht was crushed in the cab and wa. iound beside the track after the eao had burned off. His body was brought to Mena Monday anc prepared for shipment. It wa. sent to his wife at McAlester Oklahoma.

No Lives Lost.


 While it was reported that sew eral lives had been lost during the excitement attendant ou dyn- amitiug the buildings an inves- tigation tonight shows no casual ties.
 Hundreds of frame cottages wsre burned to the ground, and while several thousand persons were thus rendered homeless, there appears to be no suffering. That portion of the city which escaped the ravages of the fire, threw open its doors to the needy and in some instances as many as five and six families are being cared for in one home.
 Early estimates of the fire, which placed the amount of dam age at $5,000, 900, are believed to- night to be excessive, aud more conservative estimates place it at about $2, GOO. 900.
 The principal building destroy ed was the new Calcasien parish court house, erected a few years ago at a cost of several hundred thousand dollars.
 Insurance Only One Third of Loss.
 It IS estimated that the insur- ance will amount to less than one third the total loss incurred through the fire.
 Ia the burning of the court house all of the tax collectors records and part of the records ID the clerks and assessors office were destroyed.
