NECRfSS FIRES 2
 SHOTS Al VISITOR

Percy Richards, local negro, is in Jail and a negro woman named Sa- vannah was to be taken into custody this afternoon, for an attempt upon her part last night to shoot Richards, two shots being fired at a range close enough to burn the negro's face. Richard was arrested by Dep uty Sheriff J. l. Summers, who mo- tihed Night Marshal John Durham to arrest the negress and file charges in the court of Mayor w. D. Cole
 The affair occurred in the back yard of the residence of Ed Simpson, where the negress is employed as cook, occupying the servants house. Richards at the jail today gave his version. According to him, he called to see the negress and fuss" was soon started. She left the room and asked him to remain, but locked the door. He remained for about one hour, he said. She returned and opened the door. The shots were fired as he stepped out.

Also l was especially pleased with the way in which the finances of the institution were being cared for have seldom been at an institution where l felt they were in better shape than at Hendrix College. The care of finances is usually one of the places where small colleges are most lax"
 This is statement made by Dr. George F. Took, specialist in higher education in the federal bureau of education at Washington, in recent letter to the college. Dr. Took re- gently conducted a personal investi- gation on the ground of each af the colleges of Arkansas. Hendrix was included among the institutions that he personally studied on the ground.
 A Hendrix professor gave proof of his loyalty to the college the other day when he borrowed money on his life insurance policy and paid in full his subscription to the college. ln- deed, almost all of the officers of the college have paid in full their sub scriptions and usually this required them to borrow It will be remem- bered that the Hendrix faculty led all of the southern colleges last spring in the liberality of their sub scriptions to the Christian Education Movement, and they are now leading them again in the promptness of pay ing.
 Prof. McClurkin spent all fall in the field collecting subscriptions to the college preparatory to settle ment with New York. Many friends of the college with subscriptions varying from $25 up to $1,oo0, said that while they did not have the mon- ey they would borrow and pay theirs in order to assist the college to settle in full with New York. Those prom ises are being redeemed every day by remittances received at the offices.
 While people both in Conway and in other parts of the state are doing the magnanimous thing by paying in full their subscriptions, it is big task
