LATHE HEMBREE WILL HANG.
The Man Who Killed W. M. Willis
Has Been Sentenced to Hang,
May the 1Sth-The Date.

We gather from q copy Of the
Mena Star, a marked copy sent us,
that the slayer of W. Nj. Willis, of
this city near Mena has been SEN
fenced to hang aud the date fixed
for is May 18th.
Soon after the dead body of Willis
was found, suspicion pointed to
Lathe Hembree, who was known
to have had hard feelings against
Willis, as Willis was in tie inspect
ing business and had culled Hem
bree's ties which led to hard feel
ings.
The man was arrested, and tried
and the evidence was sufficient to
the minds of the jury to convict
him.
Judge Feazel was the trial Judge
and when the jury brought in the
verdict of guilty, of murder in the
first degree the judge ordered the
prisoner to stand up and receive
sentence. He asked Hembree if ht
had anything to say why sentence
should not be passed upon him, t
which the condemned man replied
mo" The judge passed the sen
tence of death and set the 18th da.
of May fer execution.
"A motion for an appeal was filed
The prisoner was brought through
here yesterday to be placed in tn
Jail at Little Rock for safe keeping
1t is said by those who watched
the man during the trial, and at tn
time of sentence, but he did no
show the least concern at what wa
transpiring as to his doom,

We are certainly having an era of

us to hope that it will not prove

the world can defeat it in the com.

not very pleasant to thus contem-

Republicans are still hating in
the tariff scheme for Porte Rico. 1t
appears that they have won McKin-
ley over to their views, although he
had advocated very strongly free
trade between that island and this

this party believes that the Ameri-
can people will endorse a tariff for
that people, it will find that it is
woefully mistaken.

If YOU need glasses at all you need the
