COME TO SEE ARKANSAS.
New York Educational De. pertinent Sends Repre- sentative to Arkan. to Secure Views
 and Information
 About State.

MT. R. w. Johnston, of Pitts burg, Pa., one of the leading American scenic photographers, who is at present on a visit to Arkansas in the employ of the Educational Department of the state of New York, is now in Brinkley.
 MT. Johnston's work for the New York Educational Depart ment is a most interesting one and is one that should mean a great deal to Arkansas. The photographic negatives made by Mir. Johnson show Arkansas as it was and is. They show the dia- mond fields. the cotton and rice fields, the native people, the schools and churches, etc. In fact everything to give a his tori cal setting to the Arkansas pie lures. These. negatives are to be used in the new system of visual education in the high schools of the state of New York. Thus it may be readily under stood that this work is such that must of necessity bear fruit for Arkansas as the young New York boys and girls begin to start life for themselves.
 Mir. Johnston's coming to Ark ansas for this line of work for New York was directly the re- sult of the recent Arkansas on Wheels Train trip through the north to Pittsburg.
 Mir. Johnston will carry back with him about a dozen mega. tives showing the Brinkley terri
 tory history. A woods scene, 2 series of rice growing pictures, one of the heading factory anc one of the Brinkley High Schoo

on last Friday morning to hear that Mrs. Sam Chapman. teacher at the Moro High School, had committed suicide by taking strychnine just at breakfast time. Mrs. Chapman was a fine teacher and was loved by all the children and her sudden death comes as a hard blow to them and her many friends at Moro. She and her husband, Prof Sam Chapman, come here from Texas and have given entire satisfac- tion with the school, and her sudden taking away is deeply regretted by all. Her body was taken to Dardanelle for enter ment, accompanied by MT. and Mrs. w. s. Humphreys, MT. and Mrs. Paul Westbrook and Mrs. Chiids.
 Saturday was a red letter day in Moro. It seemed that every one who ever did get drunk were here in Moro on a Thigh lone some" Nor was that all, the drinking led to some bad feeling which resulted in a few scraps. It is deeply regretted by the peo- pie here that this thing can't be eradicated Moro is good little town and has some of the best people on earth, and surely some thing will be done in the near future to put stop to this law lessness.
 l Guy Apple, Deputy Sheriff of Lee county. came out here Satur- day and raided few blind tig- CTS with not much success, tho he got sufficient evidenca to prove that whiskey was being sold here.
 On Saturday night Chas. Doz- fer shot Claude Pulliam in front of the store operated by the Paslay-Chaffin Go. The trouble came up over the raiding of a blind tiger at this place. Mir. Pulliam was not hurt very bad. only sustaining bullet hole in his arm. The trial came off in Marianna today and at this writ ing I am unable to say how it came out.
 1 The Bemis Bag Company, of Boston, who bought the D. H. Smith plantation some 4 miles west of Moro are making exten- sive preparations to do big things out there. MT. Kirby. contrac- tor of Jackson, Tenn, is at work putting up six buildings there, one for a residence for MT. Lige
