THE INDEPENDENT
PERCY H. VANDYKE,
Publisher and Editor.
NEWPORT, - - ARKANSAS.
The Searcy Citizen contains a
very eulogistic write-up of one
James L. Graham of Memphis,
who has located in that city to
practice law. Now if the said
James L. Graham was once the
principal of a school at James
town which sold diplomas and
skinned outsiders generally by
leaving a host of unpaid credit
ors; if the said Graham be the
LL. D. and manager of the
American Teachers’ Association
of Memphis, who last summer
floated another fake scheme and
bunkoed a large number of school
teachers, he ought to be written
up by the Searcy Citizen as the
worst grafter and fakir not
clothed in stripes. The James
L. Graham to whom we refer
had the necessery nerve for a
full-fledo-pH rascal and that he
should locate in a community
where he may laugh in his sleeve
over the easy victims of former
schemes should occasion no sur
prise.

rROUBLE WITH
A HOUSE BOAT.!
—
The Calico Rocket says that
August Peterson and family
moved onto their house boat last
week, and on last Monday morn
ing started down the river,
leaded for the World’s Fair.
Unfortunately their gasoline en
gine “went dead” below here
and when they came to the ferry
at Piney they were unable to
^ive the signal for the ferry wire
to be lowered, and the entire
family had a narrow escape from
being drowned.
A fellow on the bank saw them
just in time to try to raise the
wire, while a man on the top of
the boat made an effort to grab
the wire and lift it over. The
latter missed his mark and the
wire caught on the pilot house.
The boat swung around cross
wise the river, water began
pouring in over the side, and the
women sent up a heart-rending
scream for help. For an instant
it looked as though the entire j
party were doomed, but in the
»■» I /-»!- f i w*\ n f U A r\ll rtf AIIOA f

loose and the boat righted up.
They landed the boat on an island
-
just below the mouth of Pinev,
and at last accounts they were
camping on the island, waiting
for the river to go down.
