A TRADE IN GLEN
WOOD PROPERTY

Last week Mrs. L. G. Clark sold her
splendid residence property at the cor
ner of Ninth and Bennett to Mrs.
Louis Schwarz for $4,000, taking as
part payment therefor the Schwarz
cottage on South Blake, just north of
the grade school gymnasium. Dr.. and
Mrs. Clark will move into the Schwarz
cottage next week and Mr.. and Mrs.
Schwarz will at once take up their
abode in their new home which is one
of the high grade residence properties
of Glenwood, thoroughly modern and in
every sense most desirable property.
Mrs. Clark says this was woman s
trade and both parties are well salts.
fled, and the men had nothing to do
with it. The Clark property contains
more room than Dr.. and Mrs. Clark
have needed and they have for some
time discussed the matter of disposing
of it and securing a bungalow or small
cottage, more in harmony with their
needs
The cottage which the Clarks have
taken in ths trade will be modernized
and made little more Attractive, just
as soon as carpenters can do the work.

Our Team Now Claims Cham
pionship Of Westtrn Slope
Who Dare Dispute it?
wALLop MoRTRosE.

Fast and furious were the basket
ball games at the high school gym Last
Wednesday evening when the Glenwood
teams tried out their skill with the
girls and boys teams of Montrose.
The girls game was played first and
this was one of the snappiest games
ever played by girls on the local floor.
The Glenwood girls went at the work
with a determination to win and at
the end of the first half the scora
stood 10 to Z in favor of the home
girls. In the second half the local
girls ran right away from their op-
ponents with score Of IA to 6, making
the total score "a to 10 in our favor.
When the boys lined up on the floor,
Glenwood's well trained and muscular
lads, pitted against splendid bunsh
of husky fellows from Montrose, every
body knew that battle was due, and
they were not disappointed. The visit
ors have captured every game but one
they have played this winter up TO
the time they came to Glenwood and
our locals have lost one game by one
point.
1t soon developed that for fast team
work our boys had their visitors bested
by several points. The first half
stood 10 to IA in Glenweod's favo.
while in the second half our boys by
their superior team work aad accurate
basket thsowing nade SCORE Of II
and held the visitors down to 4, the
total score being 50 to Is in our favor.
Both games were clean and interest
ing. yes, exciting at times, and Of
course Mr.. McCue and his five invin-
cibles are very proud of the great vie
tory, as are all the rest Of US, for bear
in mind it is no small honor to defeat
teams of the high standing Of Mont
rose. ~
Glenwood's victory is all the more
enhanced from the fact that Thursday
evening the Montrose teams won a
complete victory over the Palisade
teams, the score being boys 36 to 81
and girls 80 to q, beth favorable 10

cured some potatoes which he says
cannot be beaten in any country III

in the line of potato production, others

1t is the plan of the commissioners

is held that by combining the duties
Of these positions with those ordinari-
ly assumed by the county agent the
county will not be losing anything at
all financially, but will get an increased

The county commissioners will pro-
vide Mr., Alfred with an office in the

where he will spend about one day Of
each week, the rest of the time beiug

criminal cases to be heard by a jury,
and it is probable that at least one Of
these may be submitted to the court
instead Of the jury.
While tho civil cases are almost equal
in number to the usual calendar Tor
the spring term they are Of rather less
than those usually heard in
the district court and will probably
consume less than the customary time
in trial.
The jurors have been notified to ap,
pear March 90 and it is now believed
that they may be excused and allowed
to return to their homes by the last OF
the same week.
During some years the March term
has proved a great annoyance to many
of our farmers who were chosen on tho
jury, and sometimes held here three
or four weeks.

the firemen and report to the council
at later date, when perhaps meet
ing of citizens and taxpayers may be
called for a general discussion of the
subject.
George Coryell appeared before the
board and requested that the rent On
the city building which he occupies as
a confectionery. store be reduced from
$50 to $40 month, beginning the first
of this year. The board finally de-
cided to make the reduction from
March l to January /, next, with the
understanding that if the city at that
time decides to continue renting the
property, Mr.. Coryell will be given the
refusal of the property for another
term.
The matter Of trimming the street
trees was left with the street and
alley committee. The annual appro-
priation ordinance, as found elsewhere
in this issue of the Post was put upon
its final passage.
Little else came before the board
aside from the regular allowance of
bills.

in readiness to give the occupants il
the city Jail here a disinfeetng bati
yesterday in q solution Of gasoline and
coal oil.
Police Captain Hall, who was in
charge Of the disinfecting ceremonies
said that the men, al Me1ieans, were
caught in trap like rats and there
was NO chance for them to escape. All
the men were in nude state, and wers
awaiting their turn to be taken out o.
their cells to the bath. Those whe
were out of their cells escaped with
slight burns, but those who were still
locked in were enveloped in the flame,
and burned alive in their cells, as there
was no chance to rescue them, as the
ignition of the gas was SO sudden.
Screams of the dying men could bt
heard for blocks and the scene was
more than the ordinary person could
bear.
The men could be seen in their red
hot cells roasting to death, but thei1
misery did not last long for it wal
only a matter Of few minutes unit
those in the cells were dead.

ILLEGAL NAMES ON
 Wn|SkFY PETITION
INVESTIGATION IN POPE
Prosecutions May Follow Discovery that Over Half of Signatures are
 Not of Legal Electors.
(Russe1ville Courier-Democrat.)

(Russenville Courier -Democrat.)
 Prosecutions of wholesale nature may follow the disclosure of illegal signatures to the petition for the sub- mission of the liquor question in the next election, and if the ratio of il- legal signatures in the state compares with Pope county, the measure will doubtless be defeated because of lack of qualified signers. It is alleged that more than half the signers in Pope county are not qualified voters, and that their signatures are therefore of no effect, and the signers and the per sons who accepted their signatures on the petition have thereby made them selves liable to prosecution. And the penalty is penitentiary sentence.
 We commented a couple of weeks ago upon the fact that there were 723 signers in Pope county, when only 534 votes were cast for license in the last election. The disclosure of illegal signers accounts in part for the large number of signatures. Leaders of the prohibition forces made copies of the lists after they were filed with the secretary of state, and sent the names from each county to friends in these counties for inspection. It is alleged that of the 723 signers in Pope county, more than half are shown by the poll tax books not to have paid their poll tax for 1914, which is one of the re- quirements for being a legal voter in the coming election. The work of checking up the list has not been veri- fled and definite figures are not ob- tainable. The prohibitionists have not stated definitely what steps they will take, but grand jury indictments on a wholesale order may follow.

J.E.ROCfRS HEADS
 FARMERS UNION
IS FORMER CONWAY MAN
Ben L. Griffin Makes Intellectual Elf fort to Head Of Statewide
 Resolution.

Jonesboro, Aug, 3.-J. E. Rogers of Magnolia was elected president of the state Farmers Union today and the organization went on record in favor of the amendment to make possible the increase of the school tax from 2 to 12 mills and against the repeal of the statewide prohibition law. Rus sellville was selected as the next meet ing place.
 President Mobley was nominated for reelection after his work had been approved by resolution and re- gret expressed at his public announce ment that he would not again accept the office. He stood by his declaration, his name was withdrawn and MT. Rog- CTS was elected The other officers elected are: J ID. Fands of Benton county, vice president; L. M. Burge, Jacksonville, secretary treasurer, re- elected; J. A. Blackford, T. w. New ton and A. E. Noteworthy, executive committee. MT. Blackford was elect ed delegate to the national convention at Palatka, Fla, in November.
 A resolution adopted this morning asks the next legislature to repeal that part of section 10 which specifies that all moneys realized from the operation of the four agricultural schools shall be paid into the state treasury to the credit of the general revenue fund. The farmers want any profits used in improving the schools.
 A stubborn fight was made on the resolution supporting the school tax amendment, and many speeches were made for and against it, but the meas ure carried by big majority.
 The union adopted resolution in support of bills offered in congress by Congressman T. H. Caraway, one seeking to use money derived from the sale of lands or timber of the for est reserve for the agricultural schools, and the other seeking a divis- ion of the Smith-Lever fund between the agricultural schools and the Uni versity of Arkansas.
 A bureau of markets was organized VI AAeA'S ohiNCo WlIIl IIle COInInlSSlOner of mines and manufactures.
 An invitation was extended to the national convention to meet in Jones' boro in 1917. Charles Barrett, the na- tional president, is expected to use his Influence in behalf of Jonesboro and local business men will send press ing invitation
 Ben l.. Griffin offered the only op- position to the resolution against the repeal of the statewide prohibition law. He said the resolution was un- constitutional. President Mobley rul- ed against him and the resolution was adopted unanimously.
 The meeting was the most harmoni- ous held in years. After adjournment the delegates were given an auto ride over the city and were guests of re- ception at the B. P o. Elks club.
 MT. Rogers is wei known in Con- way, where he lived while serving as United States farm demonstrator for Faulkner county several years ago.
