TURNER WILL REBUILD THE EXCELSION PLANT
 AT ONCE,

After considering and meditatins over my loss, which was caused by fire on July the 2nd. my entire Excel sion Factory was destroyed. At that time l had for shipment on that day three hundred and seventy five bales of Excelsior, which were also burn- ca, therefore l had to sweat and guess what would be my next move So l thought as Uncle Sam did not want so young man as I in his makeup across the waters, I was de- termined to stay in old Pine Bluff and do a little more whiting or shaw ing in order to produce something which the poor, as we'll as the rich, may lay their weary bones down to rest. From the outlook, we may all have to come to this kind of bed, as inter cotton is a thing of the past. Uncle Sam has told us to stop us- ing same, as it actually took this grade of cotton to put the Germans on the run, and so mote it be. So those old, worn out cotton mattresses remember is money saved. can make them actually letter than they ever were, thus saving you good many dollars. My mattress factory was also damaged by fire, but l have it repaired and we are prepared to serve you now at any time on this class of renovating. Call us over Phone S96, and we will call and show samples of tickings and make prices. Thanking my many patrons for their past favors,
 Very truly,

ACCIDENT FATAL
TO J. N. CROSNOE
old Resident of County Struck
by Automobile at Hope
Yesterday.

Mr.. j. M. Crosnoe of Hope
was struck by an automobile
driven by Mrs. Miner Stephens
of Blevins Thursday evening, re-
ceiving injuries from which he
died Thursday night.
The accident happened at the
crossing of Main street between
the Hampstead county bank
and the store of the McRae
Hardware Co. The car passed
directly over Mr.. Crosnoe,
crushing his chest and breaking
several ribs. 1t is said that the
driver of the car, through mis-
take, turned in the wrong direc-
tion at the corner, turning to
the left instead of to the right,
and Mr.. Crosnoe had been hit
and was under the car before
she knew it.
After being struck, Mr.. Cros-
noe was carried into the Hemp
stead County Bank building,
where he received medical at
tention, but the physicians said
from the firt there was no hope
for his recovery; ne had been
in bad health for some time and
was not strong enough to sur
vive the shock.
Mr.. Crosnoe was road COM
missioner of this county for &
number of years and was one O.
the old citizens of the count,
and was widely known.

FUEL ADMINISTRATION
REQUESTS COOPERATION

Little Rock, Apr. 1.-THE Fu-
el Administration calls upon
the public for the closest coop
Grafton in providing against a
recurrence of last winters fuel
famine next season.
Buy early to insure your
coal supply for next winter" is
the admonition that is being
emphasized by the Fuel Admin
isration, both national and
state.
AS an inducement for early
buying, new prices have been
announced, summer reductions
definitely settled, and the pub
lie is assured that the prices
will not be disturbed during the
coming year.
To safeguard the consumer,
the Fuel Administration has
prescribed regulations to pre-
vent profiteering and to govern
the distribution of coal by Ii
censed jobbers and by retail
ers. Each domerstic consumer
will be permitted to secure a
full normal supply of coal but
no more.
Washington telegraph., 1918-04-12

Some of the best work in the
camp is being accomplished a.
mong the illiterates by the Red
secretaries. Some col
onels compel all the men in
their regiment who cannot
read or write to attend a GER
tain numebr of classes each
week, where in other regiments
it is up to the men themselves
as to whether or not they wish
to take advantage of these
classes. Some very marked re-
suits have already been secured
and the men are making won
derful advancement under the
leadership of the secretaries
officers and privates, who have
volunteered to assist in tht
great work.
Washington telegraph., 1918-04-12

Consumers in Arkansas as
we'll as elsewhere are warned
that every ton of coal boarded
against the future needs and
not used during the winter is
actual waste. The labor and
transportation used in bringing
the coal to the consumer and
the actual energy of the coal it
self are withheld from doing
their part towards speedy vic
tory.
Consumers should secure just
a little less coal than they be-
lieve they need, and make ev-
cry shovel full saved give its
full value in heat and power.
And the loyal citizens will
not forget that wood should be
used as fuel wherever possible,
so that the coal may be saved
for government needs.
The Fuel Administration
must have the support and ac-
tive cooperation not only of
those engaged in production
and distribution of fuel, but ev-
cry coal user in the country.
Each must bear his share of the
patriotic sacrifice if the coal
supply is to be properly in
creased and adequately distrib-
uted
Guided by the experience of
the past winter, the Fuel Ad'
ministration has taken the nee
essary steps to clear the wa!

AS the Hostess House at

real service are increasing, and
there is greater proof of the
fact that it does give service
that is effective for the conven-

might suffer disappointment
and serious difficulty in trying
to locate their friends at the
