REPORT OF GRAND JURY.

We, the Grand Jury selected to en-
quire in and for the body Of the coun-
ty of Miller, at this-the June--term
of the court, submit this, our final, re-
port:
After investigating numerous caus-
es brought before us and great
number of witnesses from all portions
of the county, we have returned TWEEN
ty-two true bills.
We have visited the Poor Farm and
are glad to report it in excellent con-
dition, and the occupants, l. in num-
Der, well cared for. We recommend
that John Tin be taken off the list OF
paupers; we think his health and phys
ical condition enables him to care for
himself.
We have made personal examina-
tion of the jail as to its condition and
safety, and we find IL in good condi-
tion and as safe as could be expected.
We find from the reports of over
seers and otherwise that the public
roads are, with q few exceptions, in
good condition. All Justices of the
peace and constabes in the county
have made their reports according to
law.
We would again call the attention
Of the County court to the reckless
manner In which justices Of the peace
take rccognizance Of the witnesses to
appear before the Grand Jury, for in
nearly all cases bound over by them
for our investigation there was an un-
necessary number to appear before
us. This is heavy expense to the
county and should be protected and
avoided as much as possible.
We also call the attention Of the
County court to the last report Of its
commissioners and ask that the irreg-
ularitles therein be corrected and ad.
ljusted, which said commissioners re.
port, excepting section 8, is hereto at
tached and made part Of this report.
Having discharged our duties to the
best of our abilities, and thanking the
Court and other officers for courte.
sizes, we ask to be discharged.

j. A. Rix, young man living
twelve miles out from New Lewisville,
Ark, just across the line in Louisiana,
was arrested in that town on yester-
day for shooting and fatallywounding
Miss Anne Jarria, a handsome young
lady and daughter of prosperous
Louisiana planter. The couple were
engaged to be married, but the union
was opposed by the girls parents. Ac-
cording to Rix's statement, he and the
young lady agreed to die together,
and in accordance with this agree
ment he shot and fatally wounded the
girl and then fired two shots into his
own head, both of which glanced,
making only flesh wounds. The muir
derously inclined lover viii be taken
back to the scene of his crime, where
tho indignant citizeus will propably
complete his murderous work, by
wreaking personal vengeance on the
slayer of young and innocent girl.
Yesterday was Arkansas Day at the
Worlds Fair, and if we may Judge
from the flattering reports sent out,
the event did great honor, both to
State and people. The most promi-
nent men and women of the State
were present, and headed by Ex-Gov-
ernor and Mrs. James =. Eagle, march
ed proudly upon the scene behind
Gov, Fishback and his entire staff,
brilliantly attired in full dress uni
forms. Addresses, appropriate to
the occasion, were made by Gov.
Fishback, Col. James Mitchell, Prof j.
IL. Shinn, Mrs. Edgerton and others.
The day passed off brilliantly, and
"Arkansas Day" was voted by all, to
have proven one of the most pleasing
events at the fair, thus far, and de-
cided success in every particular.
