TEMPT 10 WRECK TRAIN
 FRUSTRATED

Fl Dorado, Feb. 15.-What IS believed to have been an attempt bv the I. w. w. or some similar organization to wreck the Rock Island "oiler," which leaves here at 9:SO p. m., was frustrated by R. B. Vernon just before the train pulled out Monday night.
 MT. Vernon is train inspector and in making his inspection of the bag gage car, he found that the waste in one of the bearing boxings had been removed and a stick of dyna- mite with a cap at either end had been inserted The dynamite would have been exploded as soon as the bearing had become sufficiently hot and the "oiler," carrying hundreds of passengers, would have been wrecked and possibly all of the passengers and crew killed.
 The ear was a part of the night train which came from the South Monday night. The dynamite could have been placed in the box at Up- land.t eight miles south. Due to the low speed which the train is forced to make between Upland and this city, the bearing would not have become sufficiently hot to ex- plode the caps.
 Several I. w. w. members have been arrested in the Fl Dorado dis triet, and others have been ordered from the city.
 Sgt. William r Webber, an anti Red speaker, who recently made a series of talks at Little Rock and Shreveport, is conducting series of lectures here. He will make . tour of the oil fields and expose the methods of the Reds at Catesyflle, Newton and others of the frontier towns in the south field.

LONG CHASE FOR SLAYER
 SUCCESSFUL
Nick Campbell Charged With Brutal Murder of Farmer Near Hunter, Mis- souri.

Poplar Bluff, Feb. 16.-Nick
 Campbell, 42, who says he is q fed eral prohibition enforcement off i eer, is held at Eminence on charge | of mnrder of Cart Herman, a bache- Tor and farmer who lived alone on
 his farm near Hunter, 90 miles
 from here. about February 1.
 officers say that Herman disap- peared about that time, and that
 Campbell, who had been boarding with Herman, said that Herman had gone to St Louis with intentions oi locating in a Western city, and that he had been instructed to remain
 and care for Herman's farm and property
 A few days later Campbell placed all of the effects of Herman in q wagon and, taking the property left the community, saying that he had received instructions to meet Herman in Kansas.
 Later officers became suspicious anu u SGuIGIi lOi NJuiiPD1ii Nob " gun. The chase by officers recalled former days when Jesse James and his men roamed the mountains in this section. They found Campbell
 in the wilds of Oregon county, near Eleven Point where he had made camp and prepared to stay until fhp affair was forgotten
 Confessed, Officers Say. He was arrested and returned to Hunter, where officers secured Q confession from him, they say
 Campbell said that he had killed
 Herman as result of an argument about the World war. Herman was of German descent. Campbell said | he was veteran of the war, and could not endure. the remarks made
 by Herman about America. He told officers of killing Herman and of taking the body to the barn where it was buried. Officers found the body buried in stall, where his horses had stood over the body several days before the flight of | Campbell.
 i The confession, officers say will
 not be accepted, but he will be tried for first degree murder Feel ing was running high in the com munity and he was hurried to Emi,
 hence and placed in jail for safe
 keeping.
 1 Officers believe the arrest oi Campbell has solved the mystery
 of another murder similar to that
 of Herman, near Cane Crehe, about
 year ago. Search is to be made
 at once to locate the body of the
 recluse, whose name has not beer
 learned, but who mysteriously dis appeared last year. Campbell con
 tinues to deny any connection witi | that murder, however.

the second trip. They unearthed the find, which eonsistaed of five full barrels. besides one gallon and one quart, in separate containers. The whiskey was found on small farm just north of the Etl Hawkins place, q short way out Of the city on | the old Greensboro road. Two 10 the barrels were hid in q barn coF- ereel in corn, while the other three barrels were buried in the stable covered with dirt and gravel. Two empty barrels, seven five gallon cans, one five gallon glass container, and pump, were found also on the place where the wh@l- key was located. After finding this quantity of whiskey, Sheriff Johnson returned to the city where he secured a transfer wagon, also several negro prisoners who went out with the sheriff and loaded the whiskey and brought the same with all the empties to the county jail.
 sTwo women living on the place where the whiskey was found, were arrested and placed in jail. They gave their names at the jail last night as Nellie Ward and Agnes Grove.
 "The Ward woman was seen in g cell at the county jail this morning by Tribune representative, and when asked if she had anything to say. said: No, have nothing what ever to say, except that l do not want this in the paper." When told that the story would appear i'll the paper, she very flippantly said, q have nothing whatever to say to you" She told the reporter how ever when first approached, that her name was Blanche Ward but gave her name for the jail records as Nellie Ward. The Grove woman vas seated in one corner of the cell, and did not have anything what ever to say. Both women have the appearance of being women of ln- telligence and are very well dressed.
 'erhe officers were unable to To- cate the still.
 "The empty cans found, also the empty barrels, had contained whiS- key as the odor from each was strong. It is supposed that the tin cans were used to convey the goods to market. The barrels being buried
 q the ground and barn covered with corn. It is thought that the pump was used to pump the liquid out of the barrels into the tin cans, then carried away and sold.
 ''The officers have pretty good idea who has been operating the still and while they have not as yet found sufficient evidence to warrant the arrest of the parties, it is more than likely that this will be done in a short time.
 Also some parties i'll town who have been peddling this whiskey will likely be placed under arrest"

afternoon and introduced Miss Ger trude Watkins of Little Rock, Held director of the National Association. Miss Watkins told what the work vas and why Arkansas and Para would needed such an organization
 Ut the beginning Miss Watkins told the aitas Of the League which are twofald First, to further need- cd Legislation, and, second to fos- ter better American citizenship. She said if was not political party and that it was non n-partisan, being composed of women of all political parties and that it's members were working with the forward looking men in each community. The conl- mittees of the League are: taD Child Welfare; (b) American Cith- zenship; (e) Social Hygiene; td) Protection of Women in Industry; Co Food Supply and Demand; f) Uniform Laws Affecting Women, and that there is aD expert woman at the head of all these committees.
 Right now the State League is concentrating on two measures- arousing interest for the Sheppard Towner Maternity and Infancy Act, which has just passed congress, that the Arkansas legislature at it's next session might vote to take advant- age of the provisions of this act and to awaken women to the neces- sity for the passage of the school bill--Amendment No. 14 to the Arkansas Constitution, that the de- plorable and appalling situation in the schools all over the state might be corrected.
 At the conclusion of Miss Wat lxins' talk, it was decided to or ganize q Paragould League of Women Voters and the following officers were elected: Mrs. M. D. Robbins, chairman; Dr. Olive Will son, vice chairman, and Mrs. Tom Fletcher, secretary and treasurer. Plans were then discussed and work
 
 outlined It was decided to hold neighborhood meetings in the three wards. Mrs. Mary D. Meiser will give a tea at her home Wednesday afternoon, Feb. 22, and all ladies living in Ward 1 are urged to at- tend Mrs. Tom Fletcher will give similar tea at her home in Ward 9, the date to be announced later.
 It is hoped in the near future to conduct with the cooperation of all the women's organizations of the city, citizenship school, at which time questions of national, state, county and city government will be explained by able men and women. It is the aim of the Para gould League to have discussed all the issues to be voted on, and to take as their slogan for women voters of the city.. Never vote on any question which has not first been submitted to your intelligence and ratified by your conscience.'
