HELENA, Ark. May 16 "A story Is told by some
citizens Of Friar's Point, which shows a terrible
state of affairs in that village. The report is that
about ten days ago an old Chinaman was beaten
severely by two or three citizens and ordered II
leave town, which he started tod c, going to the
vharfboat to wait for boat. The self-authorizsd
viaiiants were not satisfied at this however. and
went TO the wharf, caught the Chinaman, threw
him into the river and on his failing TO dro wn as
quickly as they desired, shot him to death. The
perpetrators OF the murder claim that the China
man assaulted young white girl, the daughter of
OF the lynchers but other citizens say he
alarm her, only putting his hand on her for to at
tract her attention. The names OF the parties con-
nected with the affair can not be escertained but
they are prominent citizens The body of the
Chinaman has been found and some OF his slay
arrested. The twn is said to be divided into
two factions one desiring TO shield the criminals.
and the other endeavoring to have the law en-
forced.
