HELD
Jay Dickerson Charged With Xiii ling Jim Weeks, and Placed
 Under $5, ,000 Bond.
THE FATHER WAS RELEASED
The Bond was Signed by Twentr-six Citizens of Clark County Before the Sheriff Left the Court Room.
 Fined $50 for Pistol.

The preliminary hearing of Wm. and Jay Dickerson, who are charged with the killing of Jim
 Weeks at this place last Satur-
 day, was called this morning at 9:3O o'clock before Squire B'Shers. Prosecuting Attorney
 Graves represented the state and
 c. c. Hamby the defendants.
 The first witness called by the state was Tom Weeks, nephew of the dead man. He was followed by Sim Johnson, Floyd Denman, Will Jones, Clyde Marsh, Tom Hayes, J. L. Barger and quite a number of others. There were considerable differences in the testimony regarding where the first shot struck Mir. Weeks, and as to whether Wm. DickerSOn, the father, had a pistol or took any part in the shooting. All agreed that Weeks fell at the first shot, that there were several oth- CT shots fired at him by Jay Dick erson after he had fallen face downward in the street, and that the father and son, after the shooting, ran north on Front street. Sam Meador testified that he was walking with Jay Dickerson up Front Street, and saw Wm. Dickerson talking to Tom Hayes in front of the Miller Hotel. As the four men came to- gether the old gentleman asked Jay for pistol, that he was go ing to kill Jim Weeks, that he had run him away from his daughters house, and had tried to kill him. Jay refused to give his father the pistol and said If their is any shooting to be done, I'll do it myself" A moment later Jim Weeks and Tom Weeks wereseenc coming up Front Street from the north, and when within

Heavy Wind and Rain.

Little Rock, Ark, Aug. 13.- Arkansas was swept by local storms in nearly every section late yesterday afternoon, and reports from various towns throughout the state are to the effect that growing crops suffer ed serious damage. In some places frame houses were blown down and fruit trees destroyed, The heavy rainfall in sections al so caused the crops to be washed and the lowlands flooded.
 The exact extent of the storm cannot be learned, owing to the fact that the long distance tele- phone wires are down in many sections. The strike of the teleg- raphers makes it impossible to get data on the storm by tele graph.
 Locally the storm was light, this city being visited by heavy wind for a few minutes and a moderate fall of rain. No dam age resulted in the city. To the north of Little Rock and beyond the river the storm was most severe and the growing crops were flooded, but the damage will be light.

Surveying New Line.

Eldorado, Aug. 12.- Within the last few days surveyors of the Rock Island railroad have been
 at work near Buena Vista, and inasmuch as an extension of the Frisco line has been made short distance east from Hope, it is conjectured that the survey of a line from Hope to Eldorado is in progress. Should this line be constructed it would connect the Frisco with the Rock Island line extending south into Louisiana

Shut Out Interior Paint.

| Local hardware and paint dealer:
are at the present time particularly in
terested in senate bill 500. pertaining
mixed paint The bill was presented
in the Senate by Senator Patterson
and has for it's object discrimination
against the cheaper paints commonly
handled by mail order houses. 1t will
materially aid local paint dealers in
that all the good-for-nothing stuff
commonly known as paint and handled
by the mail order houses will cease
coming into the State of Indiana. The
bill was reported favorably from the
committee, but was defeated. Now,
however, it has been decided to re.
consider the measure.
The bill in part reads: Be it enacted
by the General assembly of the state
of Indiana, That on and after August
/, 1907, it shall be unlawful for any
person, firm or corporation to manu-
facture. sell or offer for sale in the
state of Indiana any mixed or paste
paints without the same shall have
placed upon the container label CIV
ing the exact name and per cent of
each ingredient entering into its COM
position. 1t shall also state whether
it be full or short weight Any one
failing TO comply with the require
ments of this act shall be guilty of
and. upon conviction
shall be fined not less than ten dollars
nor more than fifty dollars for each Of

but A WEEK TO LIVE
LEGISLATURE NEARS END
Over Thousand Bills Have Been In
trodueed, But 1t Is Not Likely that
More than One Hundred and Fifty
Will Become Laws.

Indianapolis, March 4.-The legis
lature is on the home stretch this
week. The constitution of the state
provides that regular session shat
not hold longer than sixty-one days
The life, then, of the sixty-fifth gen
eral assembly will come to a close q
week from today at midnight.
Six working days remain, but as
next Sunday brings an interruption SC
near the end practically all the heavy
work that is to be done will be clear
ed away before Saturday night. and
Monday will be devoted to odds and
ends
The legislature is preparing for a
hard week and bills are expected to
be passed with dispatch, yet it is not
likely that the number of measures
actually signed by the governor will
reach much more than the $50 mark.
Only about seventy-five had been
signed up to Saturday night.
The latest calendar of the house
shows that $50 bills have been intro
duced in that body during the session.
The number for the senate is $50. The
total for both branches then is .199,
or an average of eight for each OF the
$50 members. Take the number that
will have been enacted into law and
1t will be seen that each legislator
will have only about one law to his
credit.
OF course, some of these bills have
been duplicated-that is, the same
bill has been introduced in both
brauches-but it is safe to say that
the number of different measures in
troduced is considerably in excess of
one thousand
Several hundred measures every
session Idle in the committee" Such
a demise means that the committee
to which was referred the bill does
not even think enough of it to report
on it. The session closes with the
measure still in the hands of the COM
mittee.
The house and senate kill off a
good many bills on second reading
and still greater number when they
ire up for passage. Those that sur
rive one branch and get over to the
,ther have only gone one-third Of the
way. A bill passed by the house
must run the gauntlet of the Senate,
md If it gets through there it still
must face the governor. Governor |
Ianly has put an end to about a doz-
N SO far and this is expected to be
lis busy week in that line.
