THE DROP WAS FATAL.
j Colored Boy Died from Kangarooing
and His Own Imprudence.
Ft. Smith, Jan. 24.—Charles John
! son, a colored boy, died at the hospital
j Friday night as the result of a kanga
I roo court proceeding and the coro
| ner’s jury has decided that his death
! was an accident. From the testimony
! adduced at the coroner’s inquest held
I yesterday by Justice Fry it seems that
! the employes at Goodman’s stables
have been in the habit of putting in
their spare time in having fun with
‘ one another and in this fun the white
and black employes colaborated.
Friday week they were having a ses
sion of the court and had pulled a
boy who is known by the euphoneous
cognomen of “Coyote,” but who in
home life is “Kid” Green, up to the
second floor by means of a block and
tackle used to elevate feed to the feed
room located under the buggy floor.
While the hanging was taking place
the Johnson boy entered and it was
suggested that b -be made a victim.
He started to run and was chased and
caught by Grant Brooks, a colored
boy and brought back to the stable.
The rope was tied under bis arms and
he was hoisted up. When he was
pulled through the opening to the
feed room he said that he was going
to cut the rope and was told not to do
so, but he pulled out a pocket knife
aud cut the rope attached to the up
per pulley and fell to the ground,
striking on his shoulder and the right
side of his head. He became uncons
1 cious and was laid in one of the stills
J and subsequently taken into the office
aiid,.as he did not get any better Mr.
Goodman, who then made his ap
pearance* sent for Dr. Foltz who, aftei
oxaminiug\he boy, ordered him re
moved to theshospital where he died,
; a.a BLcttuu.
The testimony of J witnesses wae
to the effect that it wa^Hie habit oi
the stable boys to string an°fchei
up, and even to go out into the cRtfeel
and run boys in for the purpose of
engaging in the doubtful amusement.
As there was no evidence of any in
tention of doing the boy any harm
and as he himself was responsible for
the fall which caused his death, the
jury returned a verdict of accidental
death. Dr. Foltz testified that the
boy’s right shoulder was dislocated
and that he died from concussion of
the brain.
KIDNAPED HER CHILDREN.
Eureka Springs, Ark., Jan. 24.—
William Morgan, whose two children
were kidnaped near Springfield, Mo.,
| by his former wife and taken to St.
j Louis in boy’s clothing, where they
| are now held by the police, lives here,
j He wired the chief of police to hold
mother and children until his arrival
there. Judge C. CL White, who was
I Mrs. Morgan’s attorney when she
separated from her husband here sev
eral years ago, says that he was es
ent when they signed an agr nent
dividing the property and children.
Mra. Morgan took Abeline, then three,
and went to Hartshorne, 1. T., to live.
She afterward returned and kidnaped
Ida, then seven, and also took her to
I Hartahorne, but later surrendered her
to Mr. Morgan, who followed. Mor
gan soon afterward secured a divorce,
remarried, and placed Ida, the older
girl, with his parents near Springfield,
Mo. Mrs. Morgan then went to
Springfield to live. She had free
access to his parents’ home, seven
miles distant, frequently took Abeline
and spent a week at a time on the
farm. A month ago Morgan states
she gave Emily to his parents to raise,
saying that she did 1 ot want the
children separated. At midnight
Thursday she made the fourteen-mile
drive, stole the children from their
bed, dressed them in boys’ clothes and
drove to Springfield, where she took
a train to St. Louis.
SHORT ORDER LUNCHES.
Mrs. H. Bernstein has decided upon
an innovation at the Hotel Hazel and

convenience of the traveling public,
I but will be made a permanent feature
! of the hotel, if proper encouragement
| and support is given by the town

ADVERTISING DOCTORS.
The Texas eclectic board of medical
examiners has refused to issue to Dr.
W. A. Betts a certificate, says the
Memphis Morning News, without
which he cannot practice medicine in
that State. The certificate is with
held upon the ground that the doctor
has violated the ethics of the medical
profession by advertising in the news
papers.
Dr. Betts has a diploma from the
Cincinnati Medical College, and it i%
j not denied that he is qualified to prac
tice his profession so far as his ability
goes. The doctor has entered into
proceedings before the courts to com
pel the State board to issue him the
certificate, contending he has violated
no law in advertising his business in
the newspapers. The question raised
is a most interesting one, and is pro
voking a great deal of comment.
The newspapers of Texas generally
are standing up to the doctor in the
fight, not only because they think the
doctor is right, but becanse a good
deal of their advertising patronage
comes from doctors who set forth
their specialties in the public prints.
Commenting on the case the Atlanta
Constitution says:
“It is freely proi^ted that the
Supreme Court of Texas will decide in
favor of the contention of Dr. Betts
and he will get bis certificate. That,
of course, will not admit him to the
professional circle of the doctors who
yet hold to the old code of ethics that
medical men must keep out of the
newspapers. They are a voluntary
society and can make rules of associa
tion to suit themselves. But the
world in general cares very little for
such fine-drawn professional ethics
j and is prone to look into the news
! papers for cures of dyspepsia, catarrh
and rheumatism quite as complacently
as they look there for clothing, beef
and amusement offerings. The news
paper is the town-crier for the peo
ple and for live people on both sides
of the street.”
^ GRAND JURY REPORT.
To the Hon.' t' P- Fulkerson, Judge
Jackson County Cu^Wl)^ourt:
We, the grand jury, al,irtejjJanuay
term, 1903, in body assembled,‘ beg
leave to submit the following report:
We have investigated all charges
brought before our body, and found
true bills wherever the evidence was
sufficient to sustain indictments.
We have examined 115 witnesses
and found M3 true bills, and delivered
the same to your honor.
We have inspected the county^fail,
and found six persons incarcerated
there. We found that they were
being kindly treated, properly fed and
the jail in a cleanly, good sanitary
condition as can be kept, under exist
ing circumstances. We had a com
mittee from our body to visit and in
spect the county farm and poor house,
and beg leave to recommend the fol
lowing improvements: Paint the
main building, repair the flues, and
put new blocks under the poarches.
The house occupied by the county’s
paupers is totally unfit for their com
fortable accommodation, and we sug
gest the erection of a new building for
these unfortunates. We also recom
j mend the building of new stables and
reoair the farm fences, and suggest
that these repairs be done immediately
! as conditions demand the same.
We have inquired into and invest
1 igated the reports of the county mag
istrates, and And all have complied
with the law, with the exception of
the following, who have failed to file
reports with the county clerk: Isaac
Pearsons, Cow Lake township; A. C.
Cummins, Village township; R. J.
Shelly, Glaize township; J. M. Mardis,
Glaize township.
We desire to thank the county
officials and the prosecuting attorney
and court for their aid and assistance
in facilitating the business that has
come before us, and ask your Honor
that we be excused from furthur duty.
Jno. W. Wallace, Foreman.
Alcorn Ferguson, Clerk.

SURVEY ABOUT COMPLETE. U
The surveyors are about to complete
the permanent location on the last
section of the iast. section of the White
River road. It has required a great
deal of careful work to ascertain the
best route from Lake’s Ferry, Ark., to
the mouth of Roark creek, in Taney
county, Mo. At least ten preliminary
lines have been run within the last
eight months in the affort to obtain a
practical 1 per cent. The route
definitely decided upon is by way of
Turkey Creek and Omaha,Ark. This
line will call for two tunnels of at
least 2000 feet each, one at the head of
Turkey creek, at the edge of Taney
county, the other a few miles beyond,
through the ridge near Omaha.
A considerable) ‘ract of land has
been purchased cl6se to Omaha for
town site purposes, as it is expected
that a branch line will be built south
from that point toward Fort Smith.
S. F. Shaw is in charge of the corps
between Lake’s Ferry and Roark
Creek, and announces the perman
ent location from the former point to
Keener, in Boone county, and that
eonstriu ion will begin immediately at
Lake’s Ferry. A bridge spans the
White river 1300 feet long. The weAt
end will face a mountain througfh
which a tunnel a thousand feet longv ,
will be driven and which will open ' s
directly upon another bridge spanning
the Fallen Ash. Between Lake’s Fer
ry, Ark., and Galena, Mo., will he
four tunnels, aggregating 7000 feet in
length, and many deep cuts. There
will be a score of bridges and much
trestle work. The bridge crossing
un.:i» in Tonmr nmintv at-. Hip
II IlllV 4 I I V* ‘ »• » --J---^
mouth of Turkey creek will be the
most romantic on the line. It will be
1000 feet long anl span the river :5
feet above low water mark. The
scenery at this point is magniflcient.
Men and teams are being assembled
at the various tunnel sites and it is
expected that the work on the Railey’s
creek tunnel will begin in the next
two weeks.
