institution is said to have lost hum
dreds of dollars within the past few
weeks in goods stolen from the
stock room. Cigarettes and tobac-
eco seem to have been the favored
articles of merchandise taken and
it is believed those goods have been
taken to nearby towns and sold to
the retail trade or, perhaps, hidden
|away with the view to selling ithe
|stock here at a later date. At any
rate, considerable quantity OF
stock has been done away with.
Last Monday night approximate
ly $4,000 worth OF cigarettes and
tobacco was placed between the
storm and inner doors on the west
side of the Paragould Wholesale
grocery, where goods are unloaded
from the railway siding into the
stock room of that establishment.
1t appears the burglars pried the
inner door open and placed the
merchandise between that and the
sliding door used as a storm pro-
tector Apparently the thieves have
been placing the goods there early
in the evening and would carry the
articles away during the night.
The Brown Lumber Company also
suffered loss of some merchandise
stolen from it's business office Mon
day night. A case of shot gun
shells, containing "a boxes, was
taken from that place. The thieves
effected entrance by prying open the
office door leading into the lumber
shed. The door exhibits evidence
of crow-bar having been used by
the burglars.
Other thefts have been reported
it is said, but the ones noted were
the principal ones that have occur
red during the present revival OF
depredations. Officers are convinc-
ed that the work is being done by
an organized band. Individuals who
have been victimized claim to feel
almost certain as to the identity OF
those guilty of the offenses but at
present lack sufficient evidence tc
cause arrests. However, some very
important developments are antici-
pated that may result in a number
of arrests and convictions.

Pink Boil Quarantine.

Little Rock, Nov. 9.-The State
Plant Board is considering the
necessity of establishing a quaran-
tine against the threatened infesta
ton of the pink boil worm from
Texas and New Mexico points. The
discovery of the pest at Ennis, Texas
calls for stringent quarantine gov
erning the movement under close
federal and state supervision of al
cottonseed, lint and other cotton
products. Such quarantine will
doubtless be declared jointly by the
department of agriculture OF Texas
and the federal board of horticul-
ture, but should this not be done
the Arkansas board will declare
quarantine of it's own. Nothing
will be done however until more
definite information can be secured
on the extent of the infestation
Chief Inspector Becker says that SC
far as this particular infestation
is concerned, they do not feel I'M
easy.

BREAKING OUT

(From Wednesdays Daily


Indications are pointing very
prominently to revival of sys-
tematized burglarizing in the city
by a band of professional
thieves and some very interesting
developments are being looked for
ward to by those who have been
keeping tab upon the situation. Ac-
tivity in the line of stealing is said
to have been especially active dur

been suggested that it would be

tect themselves against the intru-

test |''S'' OIL WELL ]
Five Inch Casing to Be
Drawn From Harrisburg
Test-Sand Enters Test
From Bottom of Hole.
(From Wednesdays Daily


The oil development situation at
Harrisburg, which has thrown the
citizens of that town into a fever
of excitement and has been the
source of much local interest, con-
tinues to be the center of attraction
among those who are deeply inter
ested in the development projects
of Northeast Arkansas. The fact
that telephone wires south were
out OF working order yesterday after
noon and evening when it became
known that Harrisburg individuals
were trying to get into long distance
conversation with Paragould caused
local lease holders who have extern
sive holding in Poinsett, situated
near the No. 2 we'll, to become con-
siderably excited over the prospect
of a gusher being brought in.
Information from Harrisburg this
morning, over long distance, said
that the five-inch casing that was
lowered in the test some days ago
would have to be drawn to admit
of additional drill operations 1t
was stated that sand was entering
1.-THE hole from the bottom of the
we'll and that it would be necessary
| to "mud-off' the trouble before a
! final test of the project could be
made. That process will necessi-
| tate re-setting of the five-inch
casing before drilling in" opera
lions may be entered upon, and
| it likely will require several days
to complete arrangements to reset
| the casing. 1t appears the presence
of sand in the hole was unexpect-
ed and is but another instance of
ldisappOintments that accompany the
completion of wild cat" well.
The sand trouble, it is said is not
ldiscouraging. Prior to the setting
of the five-inch casing about ten
days ago the drillers thought they
| had the water and sand sufficiently
smudded off" but developments Of
the past few days proved they were
mistaken. Perhaps it will be neces-
sary to set the five-inch casing in
cement before a suitable seat may
| be had. The report that the casing
was thus set when it was lowered to
the "cap rock" ten days ago was
erroneous.
The individual phoning Paragould
this morning said prospects for a
good producer were very encourage
ing and that an excellent showing
|of oil had been encountered. That
individual indicated, however, Y
it would require some days to re-
install the rotary outfit to take
the place of the standard now in
place. The "mudding off, is ac-
complished only by a rotary it is
said. After that work is completed
it is likely the standard outfit
will again be installed to drill
through the cap rock in making
the final test.
1t is said that all preparations are
being made with the view of taking
care of producing oil we'll and
those closely associated with the,
enterprise appear entirely confident
