ISGRIC CASE IS
 REVERSED BY COURT
Ben Magness and Others Win Case on Appeal to Su-
 preme Court

The case of B. A. Magness, ct. al, vs. W. A. Isgrig, ap- pealed from the Independence Circuit Court, was reversed and dismissed by the supreme court in an opinion handed down at Little Rock last Mon- day.
 The case grew ouf ot a school fight while Isgrig was Superintendent of the New ark High School and resulted from an attempt by Magness and others to have Isgrig's license revoked.
 Magness and others filed a petition with J. L. Bond, State superintendent of public in- struction, to revoke Isgrig' 5 license to teach. Isgrig had been elected superintendent of the schools at Newark, by a divided board. The direc- tors alleged as grounds for the revocation of the license that Isgrig had refereed a prize fight, which was in violation of the laws of Arkansas and of good morals. Other grounds were alleged in the petition.
 Superintendent Bond held that there was no cause shown in the petition upon which he could revoke the li- cense of Isgrig, and advised that all parties forgive and forget. Isgrig, however, in- stituted suit against Magness, J. F. Cossey and c. M. Fields, setting up that the petition was maliciously published and circulated by them and that the statements were false, ma licious, slanderous, libelous, etc. to his damape in the sum of $25,0O0.

SPECTACULAR OIL FIRE.

Fire in the oil tank adjoining the
building occupied by the Penn Oil
Company gasoline station at 9Th and
X streets caused a spectacular blaze
and considerable excitement in that
neighborhood about 6:45 o'clock last
night. p. b. Finney. sixty years old,
of 1411 Belmont street, caretaker of
the establishment, was badly burned
about the hands, but was able to go
to his home.
The fire, according to the police.
was the result of spark from
Finney's cigar coming in contact with
oil being pumped from the tank to
the receiving vessel at the station.
Five engine companies responded to
the alarm, and when they first ar
rived on the scene it looked as though
the whole block was afire, so high
were the flames. Quick work on the
part of the fire department soon had
the blaze under control. About $50
gallons of oil were burned and an
automobile top, the property of
Samuel Grossberg. was damaged.

EGYPT DOESN'T
GROW TOBACCO
Cultivation in That Country OF the
Weed is Prohibited by Law Since
1890, But Products From 1t
are Manufactured.

Egypt's two great resources OF
wealth are cotton and the manufacture
Of cigarets. However, no tobacco
has been grown in Egypt since 1880,
when it's cultivation was forbidden by
law. . Before that a coarse, strong va
riety was raised to a considerable ex-
tent, but was marketed only when
tempered by mixture with imported
tobacco.
But since the prohibition OF tobacco
as a crop in Egypt the manufacture
of tobacco products there has IN
creased, strange as it may seem, all
being virtually in the hands of Greeks,
who import the material. E. Benachl
mayor of Athens, points out in a let
ter to the London Times that while
the Greeks have gotten rich in Egypt
through their tobacco trade, they also
brought prosperity to the country by
furnishing employment to thousands
of natives who otherwise would have
to lead a rather precarious existence

NEW MACHINE
WILL DO WORK
Manual Process Of Weaving Wicker
Baskets and Furniture Can Now
be Eliminated by New In
vention.

For some 5000 years man has been
weaving wicker baskets and furniture
by sticking upright stakes. or the weft,
into a frame, then weaving the warp
in and out This process has always
been y manual one; until few
months ago, in fact, manufacturers or
woven baskets, furniture and baby
carriages actually asserted that a
machine could never be invented to
do this work But the machine has
been built and is now in use, says
Popular Mechanics. The frame is
built in one part of the factory and
the wicker fabric is woven in another.
The last step in the manufacture Is,
of course, the application Of the wick
er fabric to the frame.
The loom is a revolving machine
to which the stakes, or weft, are fixed,
over a pattern. The wicker, wrapped
on two spools at the sides Of the loom
is fed into it through an overhead ten
sion pulley AS the loom revolves,
the wicker passes from the pulley to
the shuttles, two of which are found
on each machine. Emerging from the
shuttles, the warp Is met by star-shap-
ed wheels which press alternate
strands to either side.

CHILD is BITTEN
BY RATTLE SNAKE
Struck Three Times by Reptile in
Garden at Parents Home and
Is Taken to Hospital For
Treatment.

CENTERVILLE, July G.-Slavia
Padovich, son Of Mr. and Mrs. Jack
Padovich, living three miles west OF
this city. is in the St Joseph hospital
in this city with three wounds on his
leg where a large ratt1esnake struck
him while he was playing near the
garden at the Padovich home Tues
day afternoon.
The little fellow, only three and A
half years of age, had gone to the
garden with his mother and had re
mained on the outside of the fence
where the grass was tall. He had
been there only a short time when
he called to his mother that some
thing had stung him. When the
mother examined the place she
feared that a snake had bitten him,
as three separate wounds were bleed
ing, each place resembling the pierc
ing of a snake fang. The boy was
rushed to the house and the father
called. Not knowing what kind of
snake had bitten the child. the father
went to the garden, and in the spot
where the boy had been playing he
saw and killed twofoot rattlesnake
There were ten rattles on the snake
but the reptile struck at the father
of the child without warning. The
first stroke missed and the snake
was killed. ~.
DR.. C. P. Tillmont is treating the
wounds, and although the leg is
badly swollen and the child has suf
fered greatly from the snake bite, il
was announced that it was thought
tho child would recover
