Starr Will Not Hapr

Henry Starr, the noted Cherokee out
law, who has been confined in the fed
eral jail at Fort Smith for the past three
years, was taken before Judge Rodgers
on the charge of numbering Floyd will
son and was permitted to enter plea
OF guilty to manslaughter. Starr was
tried and convicted of murder in this
same case three times and sentenced to
be hanged each time, but the supreme
court set aside the verdicts. Wilson
was deputy marshal, and was killed
by Starr while attempting his arrest in
1872 Starr was captured in Colorado
Springs, Col, in 1898, shortly after hav-
ing robbed the Bentonville bank. He
was convicted in 1898 at Fort Smith in
five cases of robbery, but was never
sentenced on account of the murder
case against him. Starr stands con-
victed on enough charges to get term
OF 100 years, if the court is so disposed.

Applauded the Verdict.

At Fort Smith Mrs Julia Bourland
was acquitted of the killing of Maude
Allen. The case excited much interest
on account of the high standing of Mrs.
Bourland. The killing was the result
of an infatuation between Maude Allen
and Mrs. Bourland's husband. After
repeatedly warning the Allen woman
to cease her relations with Mr.. Bour-
land, which were not needed, Mrs.
Bourland went to the house occupied
by Maude and shot her twice with a
9s-calibre pistol. When the iury's YER
dict was announced the crowd in the
court room began to applaud which was
promptly interrupted by Judge Bryant,
who reprimanded the audience for its
action in these words: "While the YER
dict may be very satisfactory one to
the public, and may even meet the APP
proval of the court, the courtroom is
not the proper place for its manifesto
ton. Outside of the court it may be
proper to express an approval, but not

manufacture of mountain dew" in this
state. Deputy Collector Carpenter. in
company with a posse of deputy mar
shals, raided a still six miles north of

ing visit from the officers. The plant,

cessful raid was made by Mr. Carpenter
and posse consisting of H. b. Holman
and w. b. White in Searcy county a
few days after the Faulkner county
raid, where the officers located a 4O-gal-
Ion copper still four miles east of Silver
Hill. They approached the plant about
2 o'clock in the morning and found it in
full operation. The log house in which
the still was situated was surrounded
and the men taken so completely by
surprise that no resistance was offered.

important Decision.

A case of general interest as to suits
IN eJectment on mortgaged lands was
recently decided in the state supreme
court. The American Mortgage com
pany brought suit against J. w. Mill
man to recover possession of lands.
The court held that under the act of
1889 (Sec. 1904, Sandels & Hills digest)
suits in ejectment to recover possession
OF the land mortgaged must be brought
within the period of limitation pre-
scribed for action on the debt which
the mortgage was given to secure. In
this case the debt was evidenced by a
note, and the debt being barred by
statute of limitation, the mortgage
given to secure it was also barred.

Arkansas Sugar Beets.

The secretary of agriculture at Wash
lngton has completed an analysis OF
specimens of sugar beet raised in Phil
lips county, this state. He reports that
the specimens submitted show per-
cent. of ten-sixty-four one-hundredths
OF sugar on weight of the beets; that is,
100 pounds of these beets would yield
about IL pounds of sugar. He says this
percentage will undoubtedly be ex-
ceeded by analysis of beets from other
counties in Arkansas when completed,
