Negro School Teachers
 Held Instructive Meeting

Ogden, March Especial The negro teachers of Little River county met Thursday and Friday in the quar- terly meeting of their association with President w. c. Mills in the chair.
 With few exceptions, every teacher who was on the program, was repre- scented. The places of those who were absent were willingly filled by other teachers, and the work was not al- lowed to drag for a moment. A good spirit prevailed throughout the meet ing and we feel sure the teachers are doing their best, under circumstances, to have the negro schools of Little River county, rank among the best,
 The subjects, Are Children Advanc- ing According to their Chances" and Preparation of the Teacher" were given much attention.
 In the afternoon of the second day, County Superintendent Wheelis visited the meeting for a brief period. The most of his stay was given to the ex- planation of the monthly report blanks that the work might be done syste- matically. Other visitors were Revs. J. J DeLoney and J. c. Mccoy. The former spoke on "The Classification of the Brilliant Mind," leaving many rich thoughts Alter discussing the Rosenwald Plan for ail to negro schools, a few remarks by president Mills, the association adjourned to meet with the June quarter.

LOAN IS REFUSED TO THE
 MEMPHIS, DALLAS & GULF
for tine South Enc Of the Road.
NUMBER 2s.

Nashville, March 23.-Martin Walsh, ceiver, and Dr. w. H. Poland, repre- senting the public along the Memphis, Dallas and Gulf Railroad, Monday re- ceived advices from the Interstate Commerce Commission that their ap- plication for loan with which to re- hibilitate and operate the road had been refused, the commission giving as their reason for the refusal the fact that the probable earning power of the road five years would be insufficient to repay the loan.
 The commission suggested the advis- ability of making an application for a loan on the road from Shawmut to Ashdown, a distance of 61 miles, it be- ing the inference that they believe the north end of the road to pc where the lack of business affects the operation.
 The final disposition of the Glenwood to Hot Springs division is still in doubt. No assistance being available from the Interstate Commerce Com mission, it will now be necessary for local capital to come to the rescue of the road if it is to be saved.
 The Memphis, Dallas and Gulf Rail- way is a very essential racror In the development of this country, and the people of Nashville and the other towns along the route have watched for the decision of the commission very eagerly. No announcement has yet been made as to whether an ap- plication will be made for the loan as suggested by the commission.

RED RIVER TEST WELL
 NOW CREATING INTEREST
Sullivan Test No. at Foreman, Now Has q Rival in Interest in
 Red River Test.

The Sullivan test No. 1 at Foreman, now awaiting the test, has a rival in interest in the Red River test on the south bank of Red River from the T. B. Cook farm about nine miles southwes of Ashdown and which is being made by the DuLaney Oil Corporation. This we'll is reported to be down about 2000 feet and drilling is being pushed day and night. This we'll was spudded in about thirty days ago and has been rushed to completion more rapidly than any we'll heretofore drilled in this section. No reliable information can be obtained from this well. but oil men expect interesting developments there soon.
 A News man accompanied N. c. Me- Crary, R. M. Bone and Harry Steele to the Cook farm Thursday afternoon. The derrick sets on the opposite bank and can be plainly seen from this side of the river. MT. Cook reported that they had been setting casing most of the week, but Thursday afternoon they were drilling again. This derrick all mosts casts it's shadow on Little River county and developments there will mean as much to us as to Bowie county, Texas.

Local Man Gets Interviewed
 While in Hope This Week

Hope, March 25.-(SpeciaI-H. l.. Poland, who has large oil holdings in Little River county, was in Hope Thu rsday afternoon in conference with operators in the local field with regard to further developments ir his coun- ty. MT. Poland reports that four wells are now drilling in Little River and that acreage is being blocked for a number of others.
 According to MT. Poland the land owners of Little River county have been advised by the Ashdown Chamber of Commerce, which was organized re- gently to aid in procuring oil develop ment, to pool their acreage and lease at least three-fourth of it in man. ner that will procure great number of tests. He declares that the indi- cations of oil are just as strong there as any where, but that development is being hindered by certain land owners leasing their property to individuals who do not really contemplate devel- opment.
 MT. Poland complimented the effort that is being put forth by the Hope Chamber of Commerce to procure gen. eral oil development throughout South west Arkansas from the viewpoint of benefitting the people as whole and procuring thorough test of the ter ritory. He declared that the people ought to combine their interests for the benefit of the region and work in harmony for common purpose.
 One we'll just across the river in Bowie county, according to MT. To- land, is nearing the pay sand and is the center of attraction. Oil scouts believe the we'll will soon be claiming general attention.

FINE FRUIT PROSPECTS
Crops Will Be Out of Danger After
 This Week, Johnson Says.

Hope, March 23.-Bert Johnson of the Highland fruit farm, the largest peach orchard in the world, believes that the present week will put the fruit out of danger from killing frost, although frost on April last year killed about 1000 car loads of fruit on the farm Up to the pres ent the fruit is doing fine,' said MT. Johnson, who was here Tuesday night, but we are never entirely at ease until after Easter. With such un- usually warm weather this week we are not expecting much of furry at Easter time.'
 Mir. Johnson said he could reason ably expect 1900 cars of fruit off the farm without frost interference. Last year the production was very light. He is planning this year to ship about 100 cars of Elbertas in apple boxes. MT. Johnson believes that present high freight rates will cut down competition between the sections in which peaches are grown. The Texas crop is so light as com pared with the Arkansas crop that it will not interfere, and it is sew eral weeks earlier. The Highlands farm will probably ship as many car- loads of peaches as all Texas.
 MT. Johnson is experimenting with carly cantaloupes He is planting about 45O acres to cantaloupes, and is putting paper covers over the young rlants to protect them from frost

Severed
 from Body of Young Man by
 Freight Train

Friday afternoon the body of a stranger was found on the K. c. s. track south of Ashdown and opposite the J. E. Locke farm. The man was evidently struck by fast freight go- ing south shortly after No. had run. and it is supposed that he must have been riding the freight and had fallen of. The train did not stop and the crew evidently knew nothing of it. The body was first seen by passer-by on the public road. The accident hap pened about 1 o'clock. A small book found in his pocket identified him as Arthur G.. Sullivan. In it was writ ten: "Wm. Sullivan, Keller, Okla. my brother, Arthur G. Sullivan, my name" Dr. A. B. Bishop took the name of the brother and wired him at once.
 The head was entirely severed from the body, and the balance of the body horribly mutilated and cut to pieces His hat and tie were fouE3 some Sc feet north of the body, which showed that he had been killed by train going south A number of local peo- pie who viewed the body were of the opinion that it was that of young man who had been about town for several days, and who bore all the appearances of being tubercular. He appeared to be about 25 years of age No arrangements for the disposition of the body had been made at the hour of going to press.
