Rocking With Lawiessness.

Reports of lawlessness over in the St. Francis bottom country, fifteen to twenty-five miles distant from For rest City, are becoming quite frequent, and it is about time to put a stop to some of it, if possible. A murder and robbery and another robbery said to have been committed on Blacktish lake land near Heth, is reported in these columns, and there is no doubt much that we do not hear of. Judg-
 ing from these reports, which are blood curdling, that section is honey combed with crime and rascality, and rascality, and life and property is un- safe. There are many good citizens residing over there, and they are en- titled to protection and the pursuit of happiness There should be an in. crease of peace officers, and they should be most vigilant, and run down and land in jail few of those who hold life so cheaply and other. wise make perfect hades Of the fin est, richest and best country on earth.

Graduated With First Honors,

Mrs James Russell went to Mem phis Monday to meet her daughter. Miss Lucille, and incidentally visit relatives and friends. Miss Lucille has been attending the Fairmount Semi nary for young ladies at Washington, D. c., where she graduated with first honors, and was presented with a loving cup as an extraordinary token Of their appreciation of her talents and proficiency. She was the youngest of the class of about twenty young girls, and when she entered this cele- brated institution of learning she re- solved to take the position at the head of her class, which she soon did |. and thereafter maintained. The pre- sentation of loving cup or other handsome prize was an unusual pro- ceeding at this school. but she won the esteem of the faculty by her stu dious habits and brightness of mind and character, and they deemed it due her to bring home some token of their high regard. Her parents and friends here are very proud of her achieve ments, and The Times congratulates her, wishes her continued success in her chosen paths, and cordially vel comes her home.

MURDERED AND ROBBED
Old Man Named Lewis Knocked in the Head on Blackfisb Lake and Body
 Left for the Fishes.

News reached the city few days ago of most foul and horrible mur- der having been committed about three miles above Rumage's Mill. and in the edge of Crittenden county, on or about "Wednesday of last week.
 It seems that an old man named W. H. or H. W. Lewis, who lived in the bottom country on Blackfish Lake. above Quigley, station on the Rock Island, about ? miles east of here. was known to carry s40 or s50 on his person. On Wednesday of last week he was missed, and his prolonged at- sence from home aroused suspicion that all was not we'll with him. A searching party was formed, and they found his body on Sunday about three miles north of Rumage's Mill. near the Crittenden county line. The body was found in the lake, near the bank. and magistrate from Earle summon ed a jury and held an inquest. They rendered verdict to the effect that deceased came to his death from three blows on the head with some blunt in- strument in the hands of unknown parties, for the purpose of robbery Ind head plainly showed the evidence of three murderous blows. His skif was found floating in the lake near him, and there was blood on and ia it. The pockets of his clothing had been turned inside out, and whatever money he may have had was missing. He was first discovered by Chas. Franks. one of the searching party. The re- mains were taken to his home and given decent burial. There is no clew to the identity of the fend or fends who committed the awful crime. though officers are at work on the case and hope to bring the guilty parties to justice
