A BOOST FOR THEIR TEAM

That two stars cannot make . ball
team win n pennant Is brought to mind
through the meeting of Ty Cobb and
Nap Rucker down In Georgia. They
were both on the Augusta team at one
time ard The best the club could do was
to run fourth In a field OF six. It Is
also Interesting to know that when
Cobb was taken from the team none
Of the scouts cared for Rucker at all.

An Old Landmark Passes Away.

ltfs with feelings of deepest sorrow and regret that we come now to chronicle the death of one of St. Fran cis county's best-known and most high ly esteemed citizens, in the person of Squire w. B. McLaren. of Johnson township, who after brief illness of pneumonia, expired at his home oD last Friday, the 18th, and was buried the following day at Hughes grave yard He was 63 years of age at the time of his death.
 Deceased was a native of Hardin county, Tennessee, and removed to St. Francis county, Arkansas, in 1888 or lSS9 settling and founding his home on the place where he died, in Johnson township.
 Squire McLaren was a leader and counselor in his neighborhood, and was looked up to in the community as man of caution, mature delibera- tion and wisdom. His advice and his views upon matters affecting the af- fairs of his township were sought, and he was honored and respected by a legion of good friends throughout the county, and neighbors, all of whom join in condolences and heartfelt sym pathy to his grief-stricken widow w. B. McLaren was lifelong dem- scrat, of the rock-ribbed variety. He possessed fine sense Of humor, and was wont to smile and appreciate the joke whenever he was referred to as "hillbilly" or 'redneck" Deceased was elected justice of the peace of Johnson township in 1894, and has served a loyal constituency, in that | office, continuously since that date-a record perhaps of long serNice in office | that no other man in St. Francis | county can boast. It is also said of the deceased that he had married more couples than any other justice of i.e peace who ever held office in thi> county.
 l.} he passing of Squire McLaren, a quaint and original character has vanished from our vision He was an admirable man-open-minded, open handed and open-hearted. He was our friend, and we shall miss him sorely. In his home he was the soul of hospitality and geniality. He lived simply and contentedly, and died at peace, both with God and his fellow man. Let us hope that his soul is at rest, and that his spirit has flown to meet the reward that awaits those who walk uprightly and justly, and in the fear and admonition of the Lord.

Trip Through the Overflow.

Mr. A.. J Tipler, manager of the Forrest City Manufacturing Co.,, Judge J. S. R Cowan, MT. Wright Lewis and MT Billie Shaver, all made an exploration trip the latter part of last week, in MT. Tipler's motor boat, through the flooded district from Madison, on the Rock Island, to the new town of Hughes, on the Memphis and Marianna Cut-Off, covering, in all, distance of possibly twenty-five or thirty miles. These gentlemen say the excursion into the flooded area furnished them splendid opportunity to size up the situation, and, while at some points houses were sighted where the flood waters were almost up to the caves, taken as a whole, there was not as much water in the lower basin this year as in 1912, with the proba- bility that it would be out of the way in much shorter time. All these gentlemen express the belief that farming operations in the valley. will be going forward as though there had never been an overflow, at many places, in another ten days or two weeks

Dr. J. O.. Rush, one of the commis- sioners of the Little Rock Memphis highway district, came from his home in Forrest City today for the purpose of consulting members of the Arkan- sas Highway Commission relative to assistance for the district, which will build pike from this city to Mem phis
 Dr. Rush states that the citizens of the district trayersed by the road will vote for the formation of the improve ment district to build the pike. The last legislature passed a bill forming the counties which will be crossed by this highway into a district to raise funds to build it, but referred it to the voters for their approval.
 The visit of Dr. Rush was for the purpose of getting promise from the commission to supervise the construc- tion of the highway, and supply the engineers to check the work being done. As this is one of the objects of the commission, the cooperation of its members was cheerfully given. Dr. Rush was instructed to proceed with the organization of the district, and lie could rest assured the commis. sion would do everything in it's power to build a good road to Memphis, or in any other direction across the state, Arkansas Democrat of Wed. nesday.
