WOULD PARDON DEENER.
Advices from Batesville report that
Dr. Deener has plead guilty to two
counts of forgery, the other four
Oharges have been dismissed and that
he Ijas been sentenced to the pen
itentiary for four years, though pass
age of sentence has been held up for
a week until he could visit his family,
here. Though guilty, as he has plead,
of the charges of which he was ac
cused, yet in view of the fact that Dr.
Deener has been an exile from his
country in consequence thereof for
the past ten years, having in that
time suffered physically, mentally and
financially and having repented of his
crime in “sackcloth and ashes,” wej
might say, we deem him a fit subject
for executive clemency, and if we had
any influence with the present gov
ernor we would gladly use it in that
direction. We trust that he will make
in the future, an honorable upright
citizen.—Marianna Courier.

con of Helena, Democratic nominee
for congress from the First district,
was taken suddenly ill and took to his
bed in this city tonight. He is billed

ing and Harrisburg, and was en route

BODY FOUND FLOATING.
Black River Gives Up Victim Near
Poplar Bluff, Who Went There
From Arkansas Lumber Camp.
The body of Joseph Ringwald was
found floating in Black river yester
day afternoon. The body was badly
decomposed and had evidently been
in the water for ten or twelve days.
It was discovered by one of the crew
of the steamer Alma Jane, which was
tied up just back of the Riverside Ho
tel. The police were notified and also
the coroner, who called a jury and
rendered a verdict of accidental
drowning.
Mr. Ringwald has been around Pop
lar Bluff for nearly a month past, but
no one thought anything of his non
appearance of the last few weeks. He
first came into the notice of the police
by suddenly toppling over on the
street one day, and he was taken and
locked up, for it was thought he was
drunk; but when he was brought into
the police court he had another spell
and was turned loose.
Ringwald came here from Arkansas,
where he was working in a lumber
camp. He was sick a great deal and
constantly brooded over the fact that
heart disease would cause his end.
He may have committed suicide, or
may have fallen into the water—no
one will ever know. The body was a
terrible sight when found.—Citizen.

ARKANSAS GETS
APPLE PREMIUMS.
Eureka Springs, Oct. 14.—E. S.
Foreman, secretary Green Forest
Horticultural Society of this county,
passed through here today en route
from the St. Louis fair to his home.
Upon his lapel was an immense and
unique rosette composed of eight
large silken streamers, six blue and
two red, representing six first and
two second premiums on apples, se
cured by his society at St. Louis.
Although sought by a dozen states,
the blue ribbon for the “best collection
of varieties” was flying from the crest,
and immediately beneath was a red
one for the “best and largest display
of apples by any exhibitor.” The re
maining six were won on the mam
