MISPLACED FRIENDSHIP.



How an Honest countryman Was Deceived
ua by o Flnsly Hotel Clerk.
There is one type of Arkansawyer
who forms sudden and strong attach.
ments, and who sometimes, after meet
ing a man once, aftcrward refers to
him as his friend, Nelson Boyle, Of
Polk County, is man Of this type.
Several days ago he came to Little
Rock, having been summoned as wit
ness before the United States Court.
He had never attempted to live high,
and, as he expressed it, decided to go
to hotel and live like pet fox. He
soon took fancy to clerk. Why he
took this fancy would be hard to say.
On one or two occasions during tho
three days visit of Mr.. Boyle, the clerk
leaned over from his lofty pedestal Of
dignity and spoke to him. This as
sured Mr.. Boyle that his friendship for
the clerk was returned. When his
business with the court was settled,
Mr.. Boyle went down to bid the clerk
goodbye. He thought of something
appropriate to say and employed his
entire stock Of warm words in framing
form of invitation, which he knew
would induce the clerk to visit him in
the close future.
"Wall, Colonel" said Mr.. Boyle, as
he laid one hand ON the register, u

"Frontr' ....

"Front!"

''Frontl' yelled the clerk, as he
glowered on the simple-minded coun-
tryman.
Mr., Boyle waited moment and con.
tinued;
"You won't find much style at my
house, but" t:
"Frontr'
"Look here, want to know what
you meanp"
"Fronti"
The countryman hoped over the
counter, seized the clerk by the collar
with one hand, boxed his ears with the
other and yelled 'FRONT.'" Then he
jammed him into corner and ex-
claimed 'FRONT.'" He pulled him out
Of the corner, shook him and vocifer-
ated "Front!" Still he was notsatisfied.
He seized the clerks plug hat, showed
his foot through the crown and, in a
confidential and cordial manner, re-
marked: "Frontm
"Now, old Front" said. he, as he
| gave the clerks nose parting twist,

Decreasing in New Hampshire.

The Forest Commission appointed
four years ago by the State of New
Hampshire say in recent report that
the annual value of the crude products
Of the forests of that State is about five
million dollars, which is about half
that Of the principal crops Of the State;
Deforesting has, according to local
testimony collected by the Commits
sion, much diminished the water power
during the summer months, and tho
report considers that the effect of the
denudation of the White Mountains
upon manufactures and other great
public interests will be as serious as
that Of the Adirondacks. Considering
that Holyokc, Manchester, Nashua,
Lowell, Lawrence and many other
great industrial towns depend upon
Hampshire for water power, this seems
probable.--M Y Post. T.eA4.

got the three thousand pounds for
which her life was insured. Remcm-

lieve Mrs. Hassard was voluntary
party in the fraud"
When brought before the Magistrates
DR.. B was liberated on his own
recognizance, but DIR. c. was re-
mitted to prison.
st. John Marsden confessed that the
firm discovered that one Oscar Nelhson
died worth thirty thousand pounds in
New South Wales. They traced Mrs.
Saumarez as his niece, and, in the be-
lief of her death, endeavored to secure
George, her son and natural heir. In
the meantime his uncle discovered two
daughters Of younger niece, and by
this time will was found which left
all the property to his eldest surviving
niece at the time of his death. The
mother of these girls was certainly
alive when he died. So they were
looked upon as the heiresses, and it
was thought wise by Uncle Marsden to
"get George out of the way" The elder
Marsdens separated, and as William,
the eldest, favored one sister more
than the other, the younger left his
side in disgust and came over to Henry
and st. John, his son, and then whis-
pered, for the first time, that she be-
lieved her aunt Margaret was still
alive. from something she had heard
while visiting her at DR.. Hassard's.
This opinion of hers led to the mid
night excursion to the cemetery.
st. Johns plan was to marry the
younger daughter himself, and hurry
to find the real live elder niece of the
defunct Nehlson, and make good terms
with her, since, il all he supposed
turned out to be true, she could not re-
turn to England. As it happened, 1
was sent to America myself, and in a
month discovered DIR, Hassard and his
gopd-looking wife living and prosper
GUS In Boston. The old chemist, al
though prosperous as far as wealth
was concerned, was on his death h-bed,
and Judge, at his own request, was
called in to take his dying deposition,
aud this not only exculpated his wife.
but confessed the cruel pressure put
upon DR.. c. by him to accomplish
the fraud.
Mrs, Hassard came to England with
me and inherited tho money, out, Of
which she paid the insurance companies
principal and interest for all the money
they had been swindled out Of.
After several remands st. John Mars
den and DR.. c. were committed,
and at their trial were found guilty and
got off with light punishment, consid-
oring the gravity OF their crimes.
George Saumarez ofterward married
Emily Marsdcn, and l danced at their
wedding. His cousins were cared for,
and in course Of time everybody con-
cerned seemed tacitly agreed to forget
oil about Old Hassard's daring crime.
l may add that when St. John Mars
den came out of prison he was changed
man, and young Saumarez generously
forgave him. DR.. c. fell a victim
to his folly. having died in the Jail in

and Meet with Resistance.

Special 10 the Gazette.
HENRIETTA, Tx, July This morn
ing about . O'Clock Louis Smith, Elmer
smith and Jim Smith, three brothers,
were shot in Clay county, near their
home. The coroner held an inquest over
their dead bodies to-day and returned a
verdict saying that they came to their
deaths by gunshot by the hands
of Tack Douthitt, Doc Thompson
and Sterling Dawson. The evidence
shows in substance that the boys who did
the shooting were working for a man
who was building fence upon land
claimed by the Smith boys. The Smith
boys went TO where the fence was being
built and one OF them commenced to Ill
the post holes with dirt and the
other two remained IN their
wagon. Douihitt told Thompson
and Dawson TO come on and go with him
to meet them. So they picked up their
rifles and went in the direction of the
Smith boys Douthitt stopped about
twenty or thirty yards from them and
Dawson and Thompson went to within
ten or fifteen feet, when the shoot
ing commenced, and the evil
dence says that within twenty sec
onds the Smith boys were shot
to the ground, Jim and Elmer being shot
through the heart. fell dead, and Louis
living long enough for his mother to go
about quarter Of mile to him and
speak few words with him. He told
her that Tack Douthitt killed Elmer and
jim, and told his sister that Daw-
son shot him. The shot that
struck Louis ranged close to his
heart also, striking him IN the spinal
cord, causing 1t TO sever. After the
shooting Douthitt, Dawson and Thomp-
son came to Henrietta at once, and gave
themselves up. The Smith boys have
host of friends, aud were among the
best citizens of our county. Their deaths
are much lsmented. Their remains will
be inferred at this place tomorrow morn
ing at 10 o'clock.
