LEE COUNTY
 WINS IN CONTEST
ROBERT ZIRKLE OF GILL HIGH SCHOOL, GETS FIRST HONORS IN NEWS SCIMITAR ESSAY AWARDS.

The people of Lee county have reason to be proud of the record made by Robert Zirkle, son of Mir. and Mrs. J. D. Zirkle, residing in the Gill community. Recently the Memphis News-Scimitar offered a series of prizes to high school stu dents outside of Memphis for the best short essay on How I Would Spend Million Dollars for the Good of Memphis" Young Zirkle won the first prize. In the News-Scim- itar of December 24, on the front page of the paper, appeared an ar ticle under a double column head, announcing young Zirkle as the win ner.
 Robert is recognized as being one of the very best students in his section of the county. In addition to making good as literary stu dent he is doing wonderful work in the Poultry Club as carried on by the demonstration agents. He has a fine flock of Buff Orpingtons and is giving them the very best of care and getting the desired results. The article from the News-Scimi- tar follows:

It's the Same Old Story z
 'Loue WiH Find q Way''

Rudolph Asenbrenner, who emi- grated to this county about 10 years ago from Austria Hungary and To- cated in the garden spot of the world about 10 miles west of Mari anna in the Moro neighborhood, in defiance of the high cost of living or accepting as truth the saying that two can live as cheaply as one, de- cided to take unto himself wife. The fact that the object of his af- lection lived in far-off Austria Hungary offered no insurmountable obstacle to Rudolph. He wrote his lady-love to join him here, which she lost no time in trying to do. But the officials at Ellis Island did not want to let his girl come all the way to Arkansas unprotected, and insisted that Rudolph come there and be married. But Rudolph, who is possessed of initiative, found an- other and cheaper way. He began to wire and to get everybody else to wire whose word would have any weight with the hard-hearted inn migration officials, and after Con- gressman Caraway had been brought into the matter as we'll as the gov ernor of the state, besides the ex- penditure of about $z5 in good, American money for messages, Miss Ponalia Racki was released, and left New York yesterday to join her waiting sweetheart here. County Judge Hummer handled the mes sages from this end of the line and through his persistent efforts the young lady was released by the inn migration officials
 Asenbremer is hard-working man, and by his frugality and busi- ness acumen has succeeded in paying for his small farm in the western part of the county.

LAST CHANCE IS
 SWEPT BY FIRE
CONFEDERATION BELIEVED TO
 BE WORK OF BURGLARS STOCK RAND BUILDING VAL LIED AT $15,oO0 TO $17.ooo.

The building and contents of the Last Chance Supply Company, To- cated three miles south of Marian ma, were destroyed by fire at four thirty o'clock on Wednesday morn ing. The building, an old frame structure was owned by negro named Tobe Keys. It was valued at approximately s2,000 and was protected with insurance amounting to S1,000. The stock of merchan- disc was owned by Fl. B. Johnston, and his father-in-law, w. A. Wall. The stock was valued at $13,000 to 1000. Insurance to the amount of S8,200 was carried on the stock.
 The origin of the fire is not known, but suspicion points to the work of burglars. When the fire was discovered the entire building was in flames. Mir. Johnston and others who rushed to the store found the front door open, indicating the store had been entered. The theory is that the store was burglarized and the burglars then deliberately set fire to the store or carelessIv drop ped matches or overturned d lamp.
 Many years ago the building known as Last Chance was occupied by saloon. In later years, when the licensed saloon ceased to exist stock of general merchandise was placed in the building. For years it was operated by the late E. J. Beazley, later by John T. Folts and more recently by H. B. Johnston and w. A. Wall.

Passenger Fares
 Go Up January Z

Little Rock, Dec. 30.--Railroad passengers will pay 3.6 cents per mile instead of three cents in Arkan- sas after the first of the year, as the result of an increase granted the railroads by the Interstate Com merce Commission and subsequent injunction issued yesterday in the United States District Court for Eastern Arkansas.
 The injunction, which is interlocu- tory, was asked by the Missouri Pa cific railroad for itself and other carriers in the state, through agree ment with the Arkansas Corporation Commission. This case was set for hearing in St. Louis yesterday before United States District Judges San born of St. Paul, Farris of St. Louis and Triber of Little Rock, but by agreement it. was granted by Judge Trieber.
 The injunction restraints the Ar kansas Corporation Commission, the attorney general and the prescott ing attorney of the Sixth judicial circuit from interfering with the or der of the Interstate Commerce Com mission, which was granted recent ly. The. rate increase, which also affects baggage rates and freight rates. with some reservations, was granted for interstate travel by the II. c. C., effective August 26. The Corporation Commission of this state and others similarly situated could not grant such increases, ow- ing to state statutes fixing the state rates in intrastate travel. The car riers, therefore, applied to the courts for release from the penalty under the states statutes in increasing the rates according to the order of the Interstate Commerce Commission
 The injunction specifics that the rate increase shall be effective from last Tuesday, but it was stated at local railroad ticket offices that the new rates will not be placed in ef- feet until January g.
 It is estimated that the increase of six-tenths of a cent or twenty per cent per mile in Arkansas will result in an increased passenger rev enue to the carriers in Arkansas of $1,383, ,S34.S7. Passenger transport ation is conducted in Arkansas over more than 5,144 miles of road con cerned in this order. Figures com piled for 1919 for 4,158 miles, or about 1000 miles less than the mile age concerned, show that passenger revenue from the transportation was $6,919,

Harding's Cabinet
 Make-Up Forecast

Marion, O., Dec. 28.-After weeks of consideration and consultation, president-elect, Harding, is nearing a decision on several of his most important cabinet appointments.
 It may be said authoritatively that so far no such decision has been made and that any suggestions he may have dropped on the subject have been of a tentative and indef- mite nature. It is equally certain, however, that in his talks here with leaders in many walks of life he has indicated clearly what men are uppermost in his mind as he asks for advice on the makeup of his official family.
 Those who have discussed the question with him intimately be- lieve that appointments under very serious consideration include the fol- lowing:
 Charles E. Hughes, of New York, secretary of state.
 Charles G. Dawes of Illinois, sec retary of the treasury.
 John W. Weeks of Massachusetts, secretary of the navy.
 W. Fl. nays OI lHuidHd, PoStHiaSe- er-general or secretary of the ln- terior.
 Henry Wallace of Iowa, secretary of agriculture.
 Herbert Hoover of California, sec retary of labor.
 Harry M. Daugherty, attorney general.
 How many of these actually will be given the places for which they now are most prominently mention ed is question that even Mir. Hard ing himself is not yet prepared to answer. Already several shifts have been made in his tentative appoint ment slate as he has worked his way toward balanced and harmo- nious cabinet, and other changes are expected before the last decision is made.
 It is certain that for several of the places mentioned the president elect has more than one man under consideration and that the list of seven possibilities given here is far
The courier-index., 1920-12-31

from complete. Tn regard to most of the cabinet posts decisions may be deferred for several weeks, and the intervening period of delibera- tion may change the whole face of the problem and make one guess at the present as good as another.
 MT. Harding's selection for sec retary of state and secretary of the Treasury, however, are expected to be known within a few days. At the same time he may make public the names of one or two others on whom he has definitely decided for membership in the cabinet.
 Aside from the seven names men, toned, recent gossip about Harding headquarters has brought to the fore the names of several possibilities who hitherto have been in the back ground of cabinet speculations. Among those is Joseph Dixon of Montana, mentioned for secretary of the interior; Charles D. Hilles, of New York, discussed for secre- tary of commerce or the Treasury, and A. T. Hurt of Kentucky, whose name has been associated with the portfolio of war.
