DEPARTS FOR TACOMA.
Attorney D. H. Cantrell, for the
Southern Baseball League, and Arthur
Neill, commissioner in chancery, will
leave tonight (Friday) for Tacoma,
Wash., to take proof in the St. Vrain
controversy pending in the Pulaski
chancery court on the cross-bill of the
league. The investigation will pertain
jjrincipally to Tacoma’s rights to St.
Vrain’s services, under their contracts
with him for the years 1901 and 1902.
This being established, the claim of
Memphis to his services will be proven
void. They will be absent about two
weeks, and the case will probably be
heard before Chancellor Martin in the
latter part of October.—Little Rock
Democrat.

ney. The petition was overruled by

receiver.

RE-COMMENCE THE WORK.
<m _
At a meeting of the business men
Friday evening at the Newport Club
rooms, new plans were submitted and
adopted for celebrating the acquisi
tion of a new depot at the Iron Moun
tain station and the old subscription
list destroyed.
A banquet will be given to which the
railroad officials will be invited, that
their interest may be aroused and
their good will secured in the upbuild
ing and growth of Newport. Accord
ing to the announcement of George
Gould, the White River extension will
become a part of a through Kansas
City-Memphis line, and the gap be
tween Wynne and Diaz will probably
be filled in the near future. Looking
forward to this time the business men
of this city are desirous of winning the
good opinion of the high officials, that
the Wynne connection may be ex
tended from Newport instead of Diaz.
Gus Martin and G. A. Hillhouse were
appointed a committee to solicit sub
scriptions and report at the next meet
ing, to be held Tuesday evening at the
city hall, to which all citizens, espec
ially the business men, are invited.
About $300 is needed and the pro
moters of the movement desire thirty
men to pledge $10 each, but subscrip
tions are to be taken from the citizens
in general and this fund prorated to
the thirty contributing the $300. The
plates at the banquet will probably be
$2 each, and this will be in addition to
any subscription made.
SMART SET ENTERTAINED.
Miss Hattie Bernstein, in the first
entertainment of the Smart Set, the
newly organized club of young ladies,
received so pleasantly and hospitably

Beauty roses, and progressive euchre
was thoroughly enjoyed, the first
prize, a pretty china vase, falling to
the lot of Mrs. Thad Allen, and the

NEGROES SHOT AT WELDON.
Constable M. F. Harding of Breck
inridge township came up Saturday
morning from Weldon with Walter
Horton, a negro, in custody, who shot
and killed Ed Clark and badly crippled
his brother Will Clark Friday night at
Weldon.
The three were at the colored Odd
Fellow’s hall, when Horton is said to
have been hit'by Will Gregory, but
the former thought it was one of the
Clarks. He went home after his shot
gun and on his return met the two
Clarks coming out of town. He dis
mounted and shot Ed Clark in the
chest, from which he died almost in
stantly and then shot Will Clark in
both legs.
Going to the hall, Horton told the
negroes he had already killed two and
said ho would have another. As he
pointed his gun, someone knocked it
out of his hand just as it was dis
charged. Wes Gregory, another ne
gro grabbed him and he was kept tied
all night. Horton bears a bad repu
tation, while Ed Clark is said to have
been a quiet and industrious negro.
The shooting occurred about eleven
o’clock.
RECITAL FAVORABLY RECEIVED
The recital of Miss Beaulah Casey
and Mr. James M. Porter at the opera
house Friday evening was listened to
by a fair house, who were well pleased
with the merit and excellence of the
entertainment.
Miss Casey has been entitled the
“sweet singer of the Ozarks,” and well
does she deserve it, but we predict
that those mountains will prove but
foothills to the heights that her
wonderful voice will sing her reputa
tion. Sweet, mellow and clear, her
voice enraptured the audience. The
ease and surety with which she
reaches any note compelled applause.
Mr. Porter is a pianist of fine tech
nique, whose classical renditions
were excellent. The two should
come again, for being known, they
will be better received.
TW miTIJ'. TOILS.
Warren & Hardy’s saloon was burg
larized Monday night, and about 840
taken from the cash register. Sus
picion pointed to one J. H. Tesch. a
tramp printer, who has been laying
around town for two or three days,
and he was arrested Tuesday after
noon by Sheriff Hinkle. The amount
of the missing money was found on
Tesch’s person, some 815 in silver in
his pockets and several bills, corres
ponding in number and denomination
with those taken from the saloon,
hidden in his sock. He came here
from Newport to work, but could
never be gotten at it. He says he has
a wife and children at Corning. He
was drinking heavily most of the time
he was here. Sheriff Hinkle commit
ted him to jail. Entrance to the sa
loon was effected through a back
window, from which the burglar had
removed the fastenings during the
day. Tesch was examined yesterday
by Justice Six and committed in de
fault of 8500 bail.—Batesville Guard.
Tesch, whos9 arrest is thus reported
by the Batesville Guard, spent uearlv
two weeks in Newport, wnere ne was
employed by the Herald. When here
he carried good recommendations of
his character by well known residents
of Corning. __
