SHERIFF PHILPOT

wild 4.f1pfor, without the slightest foindatloK was circulated throughout the City Saturday afternoon to the af- feet that Sheriff C. M. Philpot had been shot and killed by negro lat Hampton, Arkansas, to which place he went Thursday night with / the eonlhy bloodhonnds to assist in the hunt fdfe>A,ilson and Henry Pickett, negroes, who sfns& and killed Charles Abbott. a well known Han1pton mer- ehart, and badly wounded, bis broth CT. s. M. Abbott.<that afternoon. The false report threw this city in widest excitement and hundreds of friends of Sheriff Philpot were running about making inquiries in an effort to as- certain the correctness of the report.
 The telephones in The Graphic of flee rang continually for about an hour, but owing to the fact that noth- ing definite could be learned regarl- ing the matter, the attaches of the editorial department were unable to confirm the story. Finally, over the long distance telephone, it was learn ed that the story was false and that there were absolutely no grounds for the rumor. Sheriff Philpot was in the hotel at Hampton when The Graphic got connection there. He had just telephoned his wife and other mem bers of his family here, who were nat urally alarmed by the report. Sheriff Philpot was well and happy and stat cd that he would return to Pine Bluff on the midnight train He was ac- companied by Deputy Sheriff Walter stewart. They took two bloodhounds to the scene of the tragedy Thursday afternoon. Just where the mislead- ing report originated could not be learned.
