COLLEGE BURNED
AT ARkAD[LPH|A
HENDERSON. is DESTROYED
YOUNG LADY STUDENTS ES-
CAPE IN NIGHT CLOTHES
FROM BUILDING.

Henderson Brown College at Arka-
delphla, one of the most prominent
Methodist colleges in the south, was
totally destroyed Monday morning by
fire which originated in the kitchen,
on the first floor. The estimated loss
is $4,000, with insurance for $50, 900.
Although the fire broke out at an
early hour, it was soon discovered by
the nightwatchman, who Immediately
gave the alarm. The school fire-bell
was sounded, awakening all the stu
dents. The young lady students of
the institution, although excited for
the moment, coolly left the burning
building, clad only in their night
clothes. After all had gotten out of
the building in safety, the students
trunks and other belongings were TAX
en- out 1t is said that aside from the
building itself, nothing was destroy
ed, even all the books in the library
being saved
1t is said that the Arkadelphia
High School building will be used by
the college until the building can be
rebuilt, plans for which are already
being discussed
The fire was spectacular almost
from its start. Just after the stu
dents and most of their trunks had
- H. ~ Il,
there was a crash and a column of
flame shot high into the air with a
roar which could be heard for miles.
The fire department had been called
out, but it arrived too late to be of
effective service on account of the dis
tance from the city. Before it arriv-
ed the men students formed salvage
lines and rushed trunk after trunk
along the walk leading from the street
to the main entrance of the campus.
And as they labored great bursts of
violet, blue and green-tinged fame en-
veloped the lofty tower of the front
of the building and suddenly it sway
ed, toppled over and fell with a ter
rifle crash.
The brick walls seemed to act as a
furnace chimney, and after the tower
fell the flames rose higher and all
was despaired of.
After the fire had died down it was
found that the entire library, consist
| ing of thousands of volumes, the tro-
phies of athletic fields, silver cups
won on debates and more than dozen
pianos had been saved.

Field Perils.

The farmer plants his field of
corn-the kind that doesn't pop
and hopes that on some autumn
morn he'll start to shuck his crop.
And shuck his crop he often does,
which is exceedingly queer, for
blights and perils fairly buzz
around it through the year. Think
it strange that farmers raise the
goodly crops they do, for they are
scrapping all their days against a
deadly crew. To plant and till
will not suffice; the men must
strain their frames, to kill the bugs
and worms and mice, and pests
with Latin names. The cut worms
cut, the chinchbugs chinch, the
Weevil weaveS it ill, and other
pests come up and pinch the corn
and eat their fill. And then the
ralnWorks 60 on strike, and gloom
the world enshrouds, and up and
down the burning pike the dust is
blown in clouds. And if our pray
ers are of avail, and rain comes in
the night. it often brings a grist of
hail that riddles all in sight. And
still the farmers raise their crops
and nail the shining PUNK; none
but the kicker stands and yawns
and what he says is bunk If all
men brooded DER thier woes, and
looked ahead for grief, that gent
would starve who daily goes to
thresh the golden sheaf.-Walt

No Fussing Over Land Titles.

North Carolina has adopted the
TOrrens system of land titles for the
conveyance of real estate. The
state examines the title, surveys
the property, and register a clear
title, accompanied by a plat. A
certificate is then issued to the own
er, and when he sells and makes a
deed to the buyer, he surrenders
his certificate to the registrar, who
issues a new one to- the new owner,
and that's all there is to the trans
action after the money has been
paid over. If the owner wishes to
borrow money on the land, he fills
out a blank form printed on the
back of his certificate and it imme-
diately becomes collateral for the
loan. Tom Watson, who is himself
a lawyer, has this to say of the
Torrens system: Year after year,
neiehbors fuss over land titles, get
into fights and then 90 into law
suits Year after year, lawyers are
paid to look up claims of title and
make costly abstracts. Year after
year, the time Of lawyers, jurors
