UNFAITHFUL WIFE
CAUSES TROUBLE.
Tragedy at Helena in Which
Bartender Jack Dillon Loses
Life at the Hands of an
Angry Husband.
Helena, Feb. 21.-Edgar Per
kins, a member of the firm of
Perkins Bros., shot and killed
Jack Dillon, a bartender at the
saloon of B. J. Cunningham, last
night about 11 o’clock.
Dillon was in the house pf
Perkins, where the latter’s wife
was, when Perkins came to the
door and demanded admittance.
Dillon jumped from a window,
but Perkins saw him and fired
upon him with a shotgun loaded
with buckshot, killing him in
stantly.
It is alleged that Perkins had
suspected his wife, by reason of
flowers and little presents which
it is claimed she had been re
ceiving and which, the story
goes, she said had come from a
girl friend in Memphis.
It is asserted that he found
from a local florist that Dillon
had bought such flowers. Sun
day he told his wife that he was
going to Little Rock on business
and going to the station took
the train, but alter riding a
short distance he sprang from
the train and came back to the
house. He found Dillon there
and the killing resulted.
Dillon was not very well known
here, coming from Hot Springs
about five months ago.
RIVER MEN GET
INCREASE OF PAY.
Washington, Feb. 21. —Through
the efforts of Senator Carmack
the inspector of steamboats at
the port of Memphis will receive
$1,500 a year instead of $1,200.
In a bill which came over from
the house the Memphis inspector
was in the $1,200 class, along
with a number of other ports.
The discrimination struck Sen
ator Carmack as being unjust
and he had Memphis placed in
the class with those ports
whose inspectors are to receive a
salary of $1,500 per annum.
THREE PRISONERS
ARE RECAPTURED.
Rogers, Feb. 21.—Three pris
oners, George Arhelman, forger;
John Martin, robber, and Elias
Andrews, selling liquor, who
dug their way out of the county
jail at Bentonville last Saturday
night, were captured yesterday
by the officers at a mile or two
from Momtene.
A heavy snow fell during the
night and the officers had no
difficulty in tracking them. They
were so tired from their long,
wet tramp that they made prac
tically no resistance.
