KiM«d Over an Account.
Rison, Nov. 3.—James Mc
Clendon, colored, is dead as the
result of wounds inflicted Wed
nesday night by Geo. S. Fowler,
manager of the commissary of
the Porter Lumber Company,
near this place. A dispute arose
over an account of the negro,
who became insulting and threat
ening when ordered out of the
store. As McHendon started
towards him, Fowler fired two
shots, either of which would
nave Killed mm.
Didn’t Know tile Was Murderer.
Booneville, Nov. 3.—Sam Yan
cy, who caused the death of Jim
Phillips of Barber a few days
ago, was captured Wednesday at
Stigler, I. T., by Constable J.
]j\ Nichols of this city, brought
here yesterday and landed in
jail. He was at his uncle’s
home when arrested, and was
not aware that Phillips had died j
from the beating-he gave him. I
Boy Horned by Cow.
Spurgeon Fike, the 10-year-old
son of City Marshal W. A. Fike,
was attacked by a cow belonging
to I. N. Reed Tuesday afternoon
and knocked down, the shock
rendering him unconscious for a
time.
The accident occurred near the
high school building, while the
boy and a number of companions
were enroute home from school.
The boys were teasing the an
imal when she made a lunge at
the Fike boy, striking him on
the stomach with her horns.
The injured boy was taken to
the home of his sister, Mrs. W.
B. Friar, near the scene of the
accident, and was not well
enough to be removed to the
home of his parents* this morn
ing, but will probably be taken
home this afternoon.—Batesville
Guard.
Gautney Enters Race.
The Jonesboro papers announce
another entry in the race for
attorney-general. It is said that
J. F. Gautney of that city, has
decided to enter the contest,
which will make it triangular,
the other candidates being X. 0.
Pindall, of Arkansas City, and
W. I. Kirby of Texarkana. Pin-;
dall is already in the field and j
has been for some time making |
an independent canvass; while
Senator Kirby is making many1
of the dates that are being filled
by Gov. Davis.
Mr. Gautney is a man who has
not been considered as a prob -
ability heretofore. Ex-Senator
Joe Short of Fulton county, has
for several months had under
consideration the question of
running, but so far has not
made public his decision in the
premises.
Crowley’s Bad Luck.
Mr. Pearlbuyer Crowley of
Newport is one of the most un
fortunate men of the day. At
the hotel he left his grip contain
ing, among other things, about
$150 in money. On his return
he got his grip, but not the
mcney, except about $6. The
contents of the' grip were scat
tered as if the thief had been
scared away by his approach.
Later, after buying a hundred
dollars worth of pearls, Mr. Crow
ley proceeded to put them in his
pocket and went down to the
river. There he discovered that
he had lost the pearls. Instead
of putting them in his pocket he
had put them inside his waist
band, and they leaked out at his
feet. Most of them have been
recovered, and we hope he will
soon have the balance in his pos
session.—Black Rock Telephone,
Good Duck Shooting.
Little Rock, Nov. 3.—With the
coming of cool weather Little
Rock sportsmen are warming up
to the pleasure of duck shooting.
V/11V u/. V**'-* Vrf ~
said:
/ “There h more duck shooting
in the county than there used to
be, because there is more water.
The heavy rains of the last few
years, and particularly the last
summer,have increased the num
ber of slashes, which are a fa
vorite haunt of the ducks that
come down from the North with
the approach of cool weather.
Ducks may be killed any time,
the only restriction being that
they cannot be sold in the mark
et. There are many lakes and
bayous and creeks frequented by
the mallards, teals and other va
rieties, and the prospects are
that they are to come this season
in greater numbers than in many
years.”
Losses in Searcy Fire.
Searcy, Nov. 3.—The fire here
last Wednesday morning caused
a loss of $75,000, with $35,000
insurance. The fire originated
in a law office over J. L. Gra
ham’s store. The burned block
will be rebuilt.
Lost—A gate. Finder will re
ceive reward by returning to Joe
Weisburg, 305 Laurel street.

The readers of this paper will
be pleased to learn that there is
at least one dreaded disease that
science has been able to cure in
all its stages, and that is Catarrh.
Hall’s Catarrh Cure is the only
positive remedy now known to
the med-ical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease,re
quires a constitutional treatment.
Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon
the blood and mucous surface of
the system, thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, and
giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and
assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have so
much faith in its curative pow
ers that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails
to cure. Send for list of testi
monials. Address
