RED EYE CAUSED IT.
The Trouble that WhIskey Has Got c. s.
 winterberry Into.

c. S. Winterberry, manager of the plantation of Col.J.W Corcoran. is in jail. Yesterday he became inyolv- ed in a row with a negro on the plantation and shot him several time with a Colts revolver.
 A GRAPHIC reporter called at the jail this morning to interview the prisoner, but upon the advice of his attorney he refused to have any thing to say about the shooting From others however, the reporter learns the following:
 The wife Of Sherman Smith cooked for Col. Coreoran, who at the present time is i'll the East. Yesterday morning about g o'clock Smith call ed at the kitchen in which his wife was employed. MT. Winterberry saw him there and ordered him from the premises. The negro made some Iimpudent reply and there fore the oyerseer entered the build- ing and attempted to eject him by force. Smiths wife seized Winter berry in order to protect her hus- band. In the melee that followed Witerberry pulled his pistol, struck the woman over the head and began firing. Three bullets struck Smith, one broke his right arm, another making.a flesh wound OH theleft arm, the other enterred his chest just be- low the left nipple.
 After the smoothing Winterberry came to Pine Bluff, and surrendred to the Sheriff. stating that he had killed a negro. At the time he gave himself up he was very much under the influence of liquor, and it is stated that he had been on q pro- traeted spree for the last three weeks.
 It is not yet known wheter Smiths s injuries will prove fatal or not.

RESOLUTION OF RESPECT
By the J. Ed Murray Camp of Ex .Confed-
 crate Veterans.

Commanders and Comrades of J. Ed. Murray Camp Ex Confederate vetarans;
 Our well beloved comrade, John B. Speers, having answered to the roll-call for the last time on earth and crossed over the river to Crest under the shade of the trees" we are now assembld to pay the last mournful tribute of affection to his memory, aud to place on record our appreciation of his life and charac- ter
 It is proyerbial that if you wish to know what man really is, and not only what he appears to be, serve with him in the army. Tried by this test the character of Comrade Speers shines like polished gold and makes us proud to call him friend and comrade and to know that he was a Confederate soldier. For four long years of unrequited toll and hardship filled with danger, his cour age never fiinched, his fortitude never wavered. He cheerfully responded to every call for duty, and in his in- tercourse with his fellow soldiers was always kind, unselfish and con siderate of the rights and feelings of his comrades. Defeat left him pen niless in purse but rich in the quail fications of a strong, rugged man hood.
 In civil life, as in military, Com rade Speers manifested the same qualities of courage, fortitude, unas- suming integrity and absolute devo- tion to duty.
 Blessed by kind Providence with a liberal share of worldly goods, he contributed with a liberal hand to every appeal in behalf of the worthy distressed Assisted many who were weaker than himself in their struggle for success in life, and was alwas ready to do his full share in promoting any deserving public enterprise.
 In his private relations he was a kind and indulgent husband and father, a devoted and consistent Christian, true friend and 8 good citizen, and in his death, his family, the church, this Camp, the commun- ity and the world sustained an ire parable loss. Fraternally sub mitted, C. T. ROBINSON,
