Albert McVay Fatally Shot.

While reading 9 paper in a front room of his home, three miles south of Pine Bluff on the Warren road. Albert McVay, a prominent cotton dealer of Jefferson county was shot Sunday night about nine o'clock by an assassin, whose identity is un- known. The contents of a shotgun were poured into his side and lodged in the stomach.
 McVay was aroused from his read ing by the sound of footsteps on the front porch. He was in the act of laying aside his paper when the shot was fired, and he fell at the feet. of his wife, who was the only person in the room with him at the time. She raised the alarm. The neighbors in turn notified Sheriff c. NJ. Philpot, Constable Stewart and the police de- partment of Pine Bluff.
 neighbor of McVay's says that an automobile drove to a neck of woods about 300 yards from the McVay home a few minutes before the shoot ing, that it remained there until few seconds after the shot was fired, and then dashed away. It is current opinion that the automobile party were concerned in the shooting, al- though there is nothing but circum- stances to lend credence to the theory.

A Thrilling Experience.

Fran" Hall, a local oil well shooter, had "scary" experience recently. He was carrying a can containing eight quarts of nitro glycerine past the end of pile of casing at drilling we'll just as the driller came from the derrick floor and stepped on joint of the pipe. It was balanced in the middle and his weight caused the other end to tip up, striking the bot tom of the can carried by Hall. Both the men held their breath for an in- stant, awaiting the explosion that they had good cause to expect would follow, but they were agreeably surprised in nothing of the kind occurring. The tin bottom was dented, but there was enough spring in the tin to absorb the shock of the collision without disturb ing. to the exploding point, the dan gerous contents.-Oil City Derrick.

 Mrs. Williams attempted to secure a pardon last week, but became sick while in the state house yard and could not reach the executive apartment. She returned to Little Rock Monday, and this time appeared in person before the governor. She informed him that she had heard the girl had said that money could buy anything" and ln- ferred that she construed that state ment to mean that the girl had been bribed to testify against her son. The governor, however, did not consider a pardon should be issued on the strength of such rumor.
