FFThe police have what they call
the sweating process, a means of
forcing confessions and admissions
from stubborn moral derelicts," said
an old timer, "and some of these
methods are ingenious, some of
them cruel, while others are posi-
lively barbarous and have been
frowned upon by the courts, as is
evidenced In the doctrine which de-
clares that forced confessions are Of
little or no value as evidence. [ say
this by way of prelude to a little
story of long time ago which will
show that there are more ways than
one of forcing a man to own up to
wrongdoing. As you probably know,
the ak was at one time the most val
liable implement around the place.
It was in the time / have in mind,
the time when southeastern Arkan-
sas was a wilderness and when the
earlier settlers first began to cast
their lot in that rich and now pros
porous part of the world. The ak
meant much in those days. So when
some fellow pilfered some other fell
lows ak the question was of large
moment for miles around.
"a man thus circumstanced and
Of the time complained that his ak
had been stolen. There happened
to be a preacher in the section who
was looked upon as having extraor-
binary, almost supernatural powers,
and whenever anything of this kind
happened complaint was made to
aim. The theft of the AK was re-
ported to the preacher. I'll find it
for you,' he said to the distressed
man of the woods.
S'0n a certain day when he had
nearly every man within radius of
fifty miles around him he lined them
UP in a row and stepped back about
thirty feet, just far enough to al
low him a good eve sweep of the line.
In a few words he related the case
of the man who had lost the ak,
dwelt on the Importance of the ak,
declaring it not only to be the in
dustrial capital of the man who lost
it, but the chief Weapon with which
he defended his nome. Now, my
friends, one of you men got that az,
and l know it, he said. I have
rock in my hand he continued, and
while / do not care to hurt any liv-
ing human being, / am going to hit
the man who got that ak And as
he said this he swung long bony
arm over bis head With violence and

Cotton Oil Co., has returned
from Vicksburg, where he went
to il IDENTIFY a man who was re
Gently arrested there, and who
answered to the description of j
z. Miller, who is wanted by the
local authorities. Miller is the

During the early part of last

fered a reward of one hundred
and fifty dollars for MiIler's
capture, received telegram
from Vicksburg stating that a
man answering his description
had been arrested there, and he
i'm mmediately left fer the Hill
City to indentify the prisoner.
When he reached there, however,
he found that the man under ar
rest was not the man he wanted.
His similarity to the missing
man is striking. His name is
Miller. ard like the fugitive from
justice, he also speaks German
fuently. He is barber by
trade, and was formerly a resi-
dent of Vicks burg. having left
that city about two years ago,
and returned there in the past
two weeks. He had been on a
big spree, and his actions, which
were decidedly queer, aroused
the suspicious of the Vicksburg

him to be the man that is want

failed to identify the man under
arrest he was released from

are not so serious as to entail any

the train did not, however, escape
so easily. He was Injured seri-
ously, and was not expected TO
live. He was taken to .Birming-
ham, and it was rumored on the
streets here yesterday that he
had died as a result of his inju

confirm the rumor. Mr.. Webb
the efficient superintendent of
the local division of the Southern,
was absent from the city, and
the men at the dispatcher S office
either could not or would not
give out anyinformation concern

The wreck was one Of the most
serious that has occurred on the
Southern for quite a while. Be
sides the injuries sustained by
Engineer Hohen and by the
tramp the damage to property
was considerable, and traffic was
materially interfered with, the
track having been com pletely
