GID STARK DEAD

The above headline will no
doubt prove quite a shock to the
many readers of THE HOME
News who have not already
learned of the untimely death of
our esteemed and highly respect
ed friend and citizen, Gideon
Stark, which occurred at the
family residence at DeView Mon
day afternoon, Aug. %, 1915,
about five O'Clock, congestion of
the lungs causing his death with
in about 20 minutes after he was
stricken.
The deceased was born Jan. Is,
1864, near DeView and was 81
years, seven months and eight
days old at the time he was sud-
denly taken from his family and
friends. He joined the Metho-
dist Church 20 years ago and died
as he has ever since lived-a
Christian.
At the age of 10 he began work
as a clerk in Col. John Shearer's
store at DeView, serving in that
capacity for 20 years or more,
after which he bought an half in
terest and in the year 1903 the
full stock to himself. His bust
ness career has been a success
and we'll earned.
In the year 1890 Mr.. Stark was
married to Miss Lena A. Brown
to which union four children of
whom three are now living, Nor
man, Myric and Marietta, were
born. He was a member in good
standing of the Woodmen of the
World and Odd Fellow lodges of
McCrory and carried a 100000
policy in the former order. The
remains were laid to rest in the
Odd Fellows Cemetery Tuesday
afternoon, Rev. Clark, his pastor
conducting the services which
were held under the auspices of
[. O. O. F. Lodge No. 273 of this
city. Not only DeView, but
McCrory and Woodruff County
will regret the loss of this good
and upright citizen who always
stood for that which was noble
and good.

their story, the whole district be-
tween the White river and the
Cache river is a rushing river.
All farms are inundated and
crops destroyed, they said. When
the water became deep enough
in the office of the lumber COM
pany to cover the telephone it
must have been Is feet deep in
most of the town, they said, be-
cause the office is the highest
place in the vicinity.
The river rose one and one
half feet at Des Arc Wednesday.
All lowlands in the vicinity have
been inundated and it was pre-
dicted that the water would go
eight feet higher before last
night when the crest was expect
ed. Heavy damage to crops has
resulted, but no lives have been
endangered. At DeVall's Bluff
the river rose 10 inches Wednes-
day and the stage at 6 o'clock
was 2312 feet, 212 feet below the
highest this year. The water
has covered all lOWlands and
crops are already destroyed. The
crest is expected there this after
noon. The White and Cache
river levees were still holding
at 6 o'clock Wednesday night.
The stage of the river at Clar-
endon was 21.4 at 6 o'clock
Wednesday night, rise of 10
inches in "a hours. The crest is
expected Monday morning.
Work on the levees which pro-
tect the town continued Wednes-
day and it was believed Wednes-
day night they would stand a 80
foot stage. The government pre-
diction is 81 feet. 1t is believed
that the breaking of the levee at
McClelland will prevent the river
reaching the predicted stage.

SEPARATED 35 YEARS

Few people were ever happier
than our friend Scott Pigram yes
terday, Thursday, morning when
for the first time since the long
lost boy was a baby, IS years
ago, had he seen his son, Jas.
Pigram. 1t was one of the hap
piest times of the old mans life
and his eyes were filled with
tears of gladness when he, after
having met the trains night and
day for the past several days,
saw his son who arrived with his
young wife yesterday morning.
About 35 years ago Mr.. and
Mrs. Scott Pigram lived in indie
pendence County. Jimmie, as
the old man called him yesterday,
was only a baby seven months
old when his parents were sepa
rated at that time, his mother
taking him with her. When he
was nine years old, his mother
died, leaving him to battle for
himself. He never knew the
whereabouts of his father and at
the age Of 16 he went to Corsi-
cana, Texas where he has since
resided and married.
His father later married again
and he and his second wife have
been residing near McCrory many
years. Until few months ago
he never knew what had become
of his son and wanting to learn
if possible his whereabouts,
placed an ad in the Weekly Com
mercial Appeal. This ad was
read by /. H. Nelson at Strout,
Ala, who wrote to the father
here and told him of a young
man named Jas. Pigram who
married his cousin at Corsicana,
Texas, and that he was almost
sure that Jim was his son. Mr..
Nelson then wrote his cousin,
Mrs. Jas. Pigram in Texas, tell
ing her about the circumstances
and she wrote to Mr.. Pigram
here, the result of which was a
trip that caused a reunion after
IS long years between father
and son.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jas. Pigram will
remain here for several weeks
and probably locate here. The
elder Mr.. Pigram says that it
pays to advertise.

One hundred and fifty resi-
dents of McClelland about IL
miles northwest of Cotton Plant
on the M. & N. A. Ry. are in
grave danger and some may be
lost in a flood that swept through
a break in the new White River
levee and inundated the rich low
lands between the White and
Cache rivers in southeastern
Woodruff county Wednesday
afternoon.
A Missouri and North Arkan-
sas railroad work train was sent
from Georgetown late Wednes-
day night, but communication
with Georgetown was cut off and
the result of the relief expedi-
ton was not known. The rail
road embankment between the
two towns is reported in danger
of giving way.
C. w. Butler, manager Of the
Chicago Mill ard Lumber Co.'S.
plant at McClelland, telephoned
Cotton Plant asking for help be-
fore z o'clock. He asked that
boats be sent out on the eight
mile stretch of river between
the towns, and was explaining
his predicament when suddenly
he said the water was nearly
over the telephone and he would
have to quit talking. He said
the water was eight to ten feet
deep over the town and that $50
persons were in danger. His
last words were an appeal for
aid in a hurry.
Shortly after eight o'clock
Wednesday night Superintend-
ent J. S. Reddoch Of the Missou-
ri and North Arkansas railroad
left Georgetown on a special
train carrying Is flat cars. At
Cotton Plant it was said the en-
bankment of the railroad was ex-
pected to give away between Cot
ton Plant and Georgetown.
Several persons who arrived in
Cotton Plant Wednesday night
from McClelland in a small gaso-
line launch said the break in the
levee occurred at $3.50 O'Clock
Wednesday afternoon and that
the water rose so fast in the town
that there was no time to flee to
high ground, No preparations for
the food had been made as the
people had expected the levee to
hold. Large sums had been
spent on it's Improvements this
year.
The refugees said that, unless
help had reached the place from
some source. they believed many
had been lost. According to

Had Tulsa countys ninety thousand acres OF 33lnch

but they do not have it.
Vet, thiS is 500 million tons of high grade coal sui

200O,0O0 people for one hundred and fifteen years NO
wonder these towns wish their name was Tulsa!
Also. think what Oklahoma City would do with a little
gas or oil wcll iust one little well, but they have
neither. Then, try to imagine their chagrin this week
when it was learned that their only oil pipe line had
moved ITS headquarters TO Tulsa!
Western Oklahoma rs 10 be pardoncd for making much

their only support yet we have better cotton and wheat

ion. a wealth of oil. gas and coal chat bring in over
$4,000 600 Il year in real money.
Is it any wonder that Tulsa grows? Our growth is so
persistent that it has ceased TO excite comment. Right
now more than a million dollars of construction work
is under way in Tulsa-aCtually more than In all the
rest Of Oklahoma put together
This is why Tulsa will be the first city in the state
to have 100000 people, What will Maple Ridge front
