CAPITOL CONTRACTOR ARRESTED
Geo. w. Caldwell Arrested on
Doodle Charge and is Placed
Under $4,000 Bond

Little Rock, June Geo. w
Caldwell of the firm of Caldwell &
Drake, contractors in charge of
the work of building the new state
capitol. appeared at the office of
Sheriff Kavanaugh this morning
and was served with bench war
rent charging him with being an
accessory to bribery and accessory
to offering bride.
His appearance at the Office of
the sheriff was voluntary and the
service of the warrant on him was
simply matter of form. Bond
was Immediately fixed at $40, 900
and was furnished at once with
Oscar Davis, cashier of the Ger
man National bank, and J. j. Ma
honey as bondsmen.
He refused to talk about the
matter and his attorney, L. NJ
Mehaffy, also stated that it was
not best to talk at this time. 1t is
understood that the Indictment
against Mr. Caldwell was returned
by the grand jury several weeks
ago, but was not served until this
morning, as Mr.. Caldwell has
been out of the state. It's furth-
er understood that the Indictment
was returned because of testimony
given in connection with the trial
of ex-senator Webb Covington on
the charge of bribery, it being
alleged Caldwell put up sol, 900 to
secure the passage of the bill ap-
propriating $S00,000 for the CON-
pIetion of the new state capitol
building by the legislature of 1905.

piece of land at johnson that will

berries and says that the crop is
not yet half picked. He estimates
the apple crop on the land at 900

A JEALOUS LOVER

Bald Knob, June 3.-Grover
Frazier, 81 years old, shot him-
self through the temple because q
young lady with whom he was in
love accompanied another young
man to prayer meeting. He is
in dangerous condition, but is so
much better today that the doctors
are confident of his recovery. Fra
zier was in love with Elsie Edens,
a prominent young lady of this
place. 1t is said that he asked her
to marry him, and that she refus-
ed. Since the reported refusal
young Frazier has shown intense
jealousy.

Green Forest, June As a re-
suit of a family quarrel, A. H.
Short shot and killed Isaac Wright
and his son Marcus Wright, with
a shotgun, near Cisco station, four
miles west of Green Forest, this

1t seems there had been a feud
between the members of the Short

ago, and it was renewed today,
when Wright and his son went to
the home of Short. They were
fired upon at Shorts gate, and
both Wright and his son were
instantly killed.

RAlDED THE LIQUOR JOINT
So-Called Wholesale House Nipped in
the Bud by Mayor Ration

I. V. Scott of Sulphur Rock
opened what he claimed to be a
wholesale liquor house in build
ing belonging to Geo. f. Crosser
on the south side of Front street
Monday, but to the officers it
seemed to look too much like
wholesaling by retail, and Mayor
Ration issued warrant and had
the marshal to raid the place.
Scott was arrested and placed
under 5000 bond, with Geo. E.
Crosser on the bond. Two ten
gallon kegs of whiskey were seized,
together with two one gallon jugs,
four Or five half gallon jugs, q
gallon measure and funnel. One
of the kegs was full, but some of
the contents, presumably a gallon
or two, had been drawn from the
other key.
The case was set for trial yester-
day at 10 o'clock, but when the
case was called, Scott asked for a
continuance, and the case was re-
set for tomorrow Saturday at 10
o'clock.

DRAW A GUN; GO TO JAIL
New Law Provides Heavy Penalty for
Drawing Gun on Any Person

The past legislature will go
down in history as the general
assembly which enacted more laws
for the protection of the public
than any other, and perhaps one
of the most important of these
measures is House Bill No. so
signed a few days ago by the gov
ernor. This bill is by Representa-
tive Oldham of Lonoke county,
and provides for a heavy fine for
drawing any manner of weapon
upon another, and adds a jail SEN
tence also. The bill does not read
as the average statute of this char
acter. but provides that any per-
son violating the statute shall be
fined in any sum not less than $500
nor more than 81, 900, and shall
be i'm prisoned in the county jail
one year." The bill does not leave
the matter of Imprisonment to the
trial Justice, but makes it obliga-
tory upon him to impose both the
fine and the jail sentence as we'll.

WOMAN KILLED NEAR CUSHMAM
Mrs. Sarah Helms Killed by Her
Husband, Who is Now in
Jail at BateSVille

Mrs. Sarah Helms died at her
home five miles north of Cushman,
on the old Dick Williamson place,
on Friday night, from injuries in
fiicted by her husband, Frank
Helms, and Helms is in jail at
Batesville, on a commitment fol-
lowing an inquest. and will pro
badly have to stand trial for MUIR
der in the first degree.
There were no witnesses to the
infiiction of the injuries from
which Mrs. Helms died. but the
Batesvilles Daily Guard of Mon
day publishes the following YER
sions of the affair.
Helms and his wife lived to
themselves, with her father and
mother living about 800 yards
away on one side of them, and his
parents about the same distance
on the other. Helms story, as
related to reporter for the
Guard, is that on Thursday after
noon, about O'Clock, Mrs. Helms
said she would go down to his
mothers and get some pepper
plants. She started and got as far
as the big road when he called to
her and asked her to wait for him
and he would go part of the way
with her, as be wanted to cut some
poles.
She stopped, aud as he got very
nearly to her. with his axe on his
shoulder, he struck his foot on a
snag in the road and stumbled.
This caused him to throw the axe
from him. and it struck his wife,
who was standing facing him, on
the right side of the head, about
an inch and half above the
temple, cutting a cash about two
inches and a half above the temple
and to the skull. She fell, and
Helms says that when he saw the
blood, he went Immediately for
his mother. When they returned,
Mrs. Helms was sitting up in the
road. His mother asked her what
was the matter, and she replied
that Frank had accidentally struck
her with the axe. They helped
her up and she walked into the
house. She asked for her mother,
and became. speechless and remain
ed so until she died Friday night.
DR.. Rodman was summoned, and
found the blow had fractured her
skull.
Some suspicious circumstances
connected with the case caused the
local authorities to doubt Helms
story. 1t is said, for instance,
that no blood could be found in
the road, where he alleged the &C
cident occurred, and that there was
no blood on the axe. But there
was blood, it is said, on grubbing
hoe found about the place. 1t is
further said that Helms and his
wife, who has been married about
fifteen month, did not get along
we'll. These circumstance led to
Helms arrest, and Justice w. T.
Dodson, in the absence of the
coroner, summoned jury for an
inquest. AS result, Helms was
committed to jail. The verdict of
the jury has not yet been made
public, however, and the commit
ment reveals nothing, except that
Mrs. Helms came to her death
from blow inflicted by her hus-
band with deadly weapon.
Helms is an epileptic. He is a
son of VIM. Helms, an excellent
citizen of the community, and is
d years old. His wife was a Miss
Dorkins, and was % years old.
The couple had child about three
