Plucky tGirl Prevents
Wholesal Jail Delivery
A report from Newport says
a wholesale jail delivery was
averted there last Sunday af
ternoon about 1 o’clock by the
Lee Bell and Winfred Laird,
both charged with grand lar
! ceny, made exit through the
roof by breaking a hole thru
the slate. They had broken
into a room that had no ceil
ing and thus gained access to
the roof. They made a rope of
the remnants of the bed clo
thing and swung to the ground.
Miss Howard discovered the
jail breakers, and seizing a
revolver she leveled it at
the men remaining on
the roof and ordered a retreat
which was promptly made thus
holding the remainder of the
prisoners until assistance ar
rived.
Miss Howard is well known
in Newark, having visited here
frequently and is a cousin of
Mrs. O. F. Craig.

A DAY IN THE BIG
CREEK COMMUNITY
Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Baker
and children of Sulphur Spring
Texas, arrived Saturday, Aug
ust 3, in our community to visit
his parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. F.
Baker and other relatives and
friends. Mr. Baker was born
in this county and passed the
first sixteen years of his life
here but at that age his par
ents moved to Texas where
they lived a number of years,
but finally drifted back to Ark
ansas.
Angus stayed in Texas and
i his visits have been few and
| far between. So Saturday
when he arrived in his car it
I was the wish of all to “show
Them a time” and the climax
| was reached Friday in an old
time fishfry.
Thursday evening John Cald
well, Buck Keating and others
; went to the river to put out
ithe lines. They had very good
luck and on Friday morning
Ithe crowd gathered in a grove
near Mr. Keating’s house to
fry the fish and have dinner.
Now tie fun began—dress
ing, washing and frying fish,
passing jokes and—I almost
said sharpening our appetites
but they needed no sharpening.
This was new to Mrs. Baker
and children and Mr. Baker
had only childhood’s dim rec
ollections to draw upon. Their
portion of Texas has no rivers
: and the creeks furnish only
'very small specimens of the
| finny tribe. There were pres
ent the following:
Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Baker
and family. E. F. Baker and
son, Edgar, Mr. and Mrs. Clark
Gibson and family, Mr. and
Mrs. Joe Knight and daughter,
Gertrude, Mr. and Mrs. Bow
man, W. D. Baker and chil
dren, Mr. and Mrs. Jno. D.
Martin and family, Mrs. Mack
McClendon and little daughter,
Mrs. C. A. Magness and chil
dren, Mrs. Ben Magness and
daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Neil
Keating and family and Mr.
and Mrs. O. L. Baker and fam
ily.
There were in all, fifty pres
ent, and about 150 pounds of
fish. Plenty of bread, fish and
coffee made the pies and cakes
go begging. Buck Keating
asked for the “best eater to
face him,” and we verily be
lieve Angus had the wild no
tion of accepting the invitation,
but he did not know Buck and
the invitation passed unheed
ed. We all know Buck’s ca
pacity. Clark Gibson made his
presence known in a quiet way
at dinner and that piled up
dishpan of fish dwindled per
ceptively under his touch.
But we all did full justice
to that “festive board” for the
next hour. Uncle Joe Knight
was complaining very much be
fore dinner and when we no
ticed him sitting back from
•the spread table under a tree
we thought probably he was
'ailing but when, upon getting
a better view of him we notic
ed a large dish across his knee
piled high with fish, we lost
our apprehensions in regard to
the delicate state of his health.
: For the first half hour An
gust did very well but he could
not “keep up the pace” and
was forced to drop out in a
short time, as did most of the
(Others of the party. He did
! not seem to feel easy for a part
of the aftemoi n and at supper
|very emphatically refused to
eat, even though the most
tempting slices of nicely
browned fish were offered him.
But like all other happy and
enjoyable events, the after
noon seemed to speed away on
double quick time and soon we
were forced to part and go
| back to our homes to take up
the interrupted routine of our
(daily lives—work that seemed
(lightened by the pleasant day
(just spent, for it is a true say
ling that “all work and no play
makes Jack a dull boy.”
