SMITH IS INDICTED
GRAND JURY ACTS ON NOTED NUR-
 DER CASE.
An Indictment Was Returned Agsisst F. \. Lsarest's Slayer After . Little More Than Two Hours
 of Investixnti0n.

Columbus, Miss. Jan. 25--tSpecialD-- The grand jury lost no time in Indict- ing Charles R. Smith, who on January i5 shot and killed E. A. Laurent at Ar tesla.
 At o'clock the inouisitoriaI body began it's deliberations and at 3:30 the indictment was in the hands of Circuit Clerk Gunter. having been returned after only little more than two hours had been spent in investigating the case.
 The first work to be done after court convened this morning was to em- panel the grand jury, and unusual care was exercised both in drawing the names from the hats and in qualifying the jurors for duty after they had en- tered the box It is known that this body would be called upon to Inquire into the Smith Laurent tragedy, and attorneys representing both sides were present while the body was being em- panneled.
 Mir. Sturdivant of counsel for pro- secution, made objection to the manner in which the jury was being drawn, stated that the slips containing the names of prospective Jurymen be drawn out one at. time. while Circuit Clerk Gunter was picking out two slips at time, and after calling the gentlemen whose names appeared on one of them, dropped the other back into the box. Mir. Gunter stated that this was done unintentionaly, the slips being so small that 1t was almost impossible to pick them up. one at time.
 The selection of the jury was then proceeded with and when the panel was completed. C. F. Sherrod. Jr.. cashier at the local mill of the Missis- sippi Cotton oil Company, was named as foreman.
 While Judge Buckley did not specl- fcally mention the Smith-Laurent tragedy in his charge to the grand Jury, he made 1t very plain to mem bers of the inquisitorial body that he expected an indictment in the case. He told them emphaticaliy that 1t was their duty to fully investigate all crimes and return indictments where the law had been violated, declaring that the grand jury were merely an inquisitorial body. and 1t should be ieft to court trial to determine the guilt or innocence of the parties ac- cused. On several oeasions during re- cent years men who have taken human life have escaped indictment through smooth work on the part of influential friends In the grand jury room, and Jndse Buckley evidently had knowI- edge of this fact.
 He impressed upon the Jurymen the fact that their deliberations must be kept, secret. and instructed the fore man to promptly report to the court any interference or attempted interfer- ehce from extraneous sources. That Judge Buckley's charge was not with out erect, Is evidenced by the promnt- ness with which the indictment a0AInst Smith was returned.
