 SEARCH FOR BODY.
DANIEL BURROUGHS IN JAIL
Charged With Having Knowledge of Mysterious Disappearance-GirI Lived With Burrough Family
 Near Marmaduke.
Paragould.-

Paragould.- Daniel Burroughs, aged 22, residing two miles east of Marmaduke, this county, was brought to Paragould and lodged in jail, charged with having knowledge of the mysterious disap- pearance of Miss Flossie Smith, aged 15.
 The girl disappeared about 10 days ago. She had made her home dur- ing the past several years with the parents of Daniel Burroughs. Neigh bors began inquiring of the Burroughs family as to the whereabouts of Miss Smith, but they stated that they did not know; that perhaps she was vis- iting relatives at Bard, six miles east of this city. Inquiries by friends of the girl revealed the fact that she had not been seen in the Bard neighbOr- hood.
 The suspicious of the friends of the girl were communicated to the county officials and Deputy Prosecuting AL torney Jeff Bratton swore out war rant for the arrest of the young man. Young Burroughs insists that he has no knowledge of the disappearance of the girl and that he is being held falsely.
 It is understood that neighbors i'll the Marmaduke neighborhood arc making thorough search for the girl and that drainage canals are being dragged for her body It is suspected that she has either been murdered or met with an accident. Burroughs will be held until a complete investigation has been made.

DEATH HAZARD IN BATTLE
Insurance Company Statistics Show the Risks That Men Take When
 They Go to War.

Marshal Joffre told James NJ. Beck, who repeated the figures in my hear ing, that from February to August last year S40,000 soldiers were killed or wounded at Verdun, says writer in the Philadelphia Ledger.
 A big battle crowds into a few hours all the likelihood of death that comes. to civilian over period of years.
 Insurance company statistics show that in fighting at Gettysburg man was as likely to be killed as man not in battle to die in the four years between fOrty-nine and fifty-three.
 If you are thirty, you stand as good chance of living five more years as a soldier at Shiloh had of surviving that one day.
 There were compressed into one brief day at Antietam all the death hazards which confront man of Wilderness put into tabloid form all the casualty risks faced by person of forty-two until he was forty-five.
 Grants campaign at Vicksburg matched in death perils the combined years from forty-two onward.
 A single half-hour at Gold Harbor was equivalent to all the civilian dan gers in young mans life from twenty eight to thirty-two.
 The present war is mostly machine slaughter-shells and rapid-fire guns killing more than ten times as many soldiers as rifle bullets.
