Lewis C. Tewksbury, Prince Lewis was a
small druggist in Manchester before he came
here in 1888. He did a big business as a banker
under the firm name of Lewis G. Tewksbury &
Co. at No. 30 Broadway. In 1900 the firm went
to the wall and Tewksbury disappeared, leav-
ing debts aggregating at least 100000. A few
months later he was found doing a prosperous
business as a banker and broker in the City
of Mexico by g. Gerson Oppenheim. a lawyer

WATCHING FOR OUTLAWS,
Man Hunt in the territory f1c,tes Peo- pie |n Arkansas Town, Who Believe
 NycbIiffs VII Come this Way.

Rogers, March 22-22z5r thwest h Arkansas is taking ~1o-, inter- est in the search in tA.9 territory
 for the Wyclitfe brothers,
 wanted for the murder of Depu-
 ty Marshal Ike Gillstrap, a week
 ago. The section where the
 hunt is taking place is not far
 from the Arkansas line, or the
 western boundary of Benton county, and many of the partici- pants are well known here. The Benton county towns along the Kansas City Southern are the nearest towns of importance on the east to the scene of the trouble, and a close watch is be- ing kept by the officers at all points.
 The hardware men are asked to report all orders for rife am- munition from unknown parties, for it is thought friends of the hunted outlaws may try to re- plenish their supplies over the line in Arkansas rather than try the territory towns where they are better known.
 It is thought the outlaws will try to escape from the territory into some neighboring state, where the Indian Police would be powerless to follow. Kansas and Arkansas are so thickly pop ulated along the border that the only chance would be to reach Mcdonald county, Missouri, which is heavily timbered and very rough.
 Such a close watch is being kept, though, there is little chance of their crossing the line without being grabbed by the Missouri officers. Not since the Dalton gang was terroring this section some ten or twelve years ago has the interest been SC great.

Revival Meeting.

The revival at the Christian church continues to hold the in- tereSt of large numbers. The attendance on Thursday evening was large and the address by MT. Rogers, on ''The Picture of a Lost Soul" was interesting throughout. The people are urged to attend these services every day at 3 and 7:30 pm.
 The music by the splendid choir is an attractive feature of the services, and it is to be hoped that great good may be accom- plished in Newport by this man of God.
