'ake Noble, Who Killed JaiIer in Breathitt County, Ky, after Es- caping pursuer, Surrenders
 to Arkansas Officers.

Ft. Smith, April i7.-Declarinp
 that life behind the bars of a peni- tentiary is preferable to life evad- ing the law, Jake Noble, notorious iuedlst of Breathitt county, Ken lucky, and the object of an exten- slve man hunt in Kentucky recent ly, surrendered today at Winslow Washington county, Arkansas, to Deputy Sheriff S. H. Quinn. In last October Noble shot and killed a jailer at Jackson, Breathitt county. Kentucky, the result of feud troubles of years ago. From all in- dications, Noble has spent a life of hardship since fleeing from Ken lucky. He is now in jail at Fay etteville.
 A reward of $500 has been of fered for Noble's capture, dead or alive. He has been employed at the Mountain hotel in Winslow. having worked there just one week. He never aroused suspicion, until Saturday night, when he went to a village barber shop and had his head shaved, remarking that it was his custom to have his head shaved three times a year.

 MISS LULA CLARK SAW FIGHT
Was One of Party of Three Douglas School Teachers on Boundary.

Miss Lula Clark, who is teaching in Douglas, Ariz., just across the line from Agua Prieta, where the heavy fighting between Mexican and rebel troops. occurred April i3 in letter to her sister, Mrs. NJ. F., Olney, written April i5 and received April i9, says that when the fighting began she dis missed school and, with three other teachers, went to the international line to see the fighting. They were within thirty feet of the fighting and being unable to see we'll for the crowd, at the suggestion of the United States soldiers they got on some large wagons standing there. Just as they did this several of the Federal soldiers deserted and ran for the American side, throwing down their arms as they ran. As they did this the rebels opened fire on them and the bullets came thick into the crowd of spectators, who got behind some adobe houses for safety and kept out of reach until the fight was over. On Friday Miss Clark was over the line and talked with a number of the rebel soldiers. One of them gave her few of a bunch of stamps which he had talk en from the Mexican postoffice the day before in the raid. He said that he had gotten, besides S20 worth of stamps, $ii in money. Miss Clark sent four of the stamps to her sis ter.
 The Federals were driven out of the city in this battle and many took refuge on the American side. A battle was in progress Sunday while she was writing and in this the rebels were defeated, as we have since learned from the news re- ports. Miss Clark says that there is great excitement in Douglas.

WILL INCREASE PEANUT CROP.
Farmers Around Story Will Plant
 f0.OO0 Acres to "GOOberS.

Story, Ark, April i9.-The farm CTS in this part of the state have reported between 800 and 500 per cent increase in the peanut crop to be planted this year over the crop put in last year. It is estimated that about 10000 acres will be planted here.
