Jefferson COunty's New Negro Fra ternal Order Forbids Members From Doing Lots of Unconventional Things~~-tnHrtef- Refused Because of Defeftiye Bond.

Littl4 Rock, Ark, AuG 26.-De- scendaf fts of Ham who ara prone to sit 1he unconventional, albeit easy postude commonly designated as cross legged should not be irt a hur- ry td join the new negro order re- centlt incorpora ed in Jefferson coun- ty atd wearing tho sonorous cogno- men of Grand United Order Of Eagles of A merica.
 Tn lat is, they should first break then selves of the crosslesged habit, or train themselves to ,a disposi- tion to part with their good half dol lars; for every time they violate the rules of an English }drawingroom while in the lodge chamber they will be ma,le to remember the infraction, submitting to a finey
 The hew frateIity is kind of mutual beSeht soft, carrying sick and death benefit policies, but paying lots of attention to lodge room decorum. it's bylaws specially declare that dur ing lodge meetings all members must sit erect" and furthermore thy must not chew tobacco or dip snuff during lodge proceedings and, n addition to these prohibitions they must not whisper or sit crosslegged.

 Violations of this regulation mean parting with hard-earned cash at so much per violation.
 While incorporated in Jefferson county, the organization really had it's origin and has most of it's member ship in the vicitnity of Dumas, in eastern Arkansas.
 Application has been made to the State auditor for charter, but the department has declined to grant the charter until better showing is made as to bond.

 Boat Texas.

Major \. T. White. of this city who with his soninlaW, Charles Ley erenz, also of this city, twenty-four other guests and seven employees were saved from Bettison's fishing pier, sev- en miles from Galveston. on the morning of July 21. has started a determined movement in which it is proposed that Congress or some recog- nized body reward the pilots aud crew of the pilot boat Texas for their meritorious conduct Major White is personally appealing to all of Ark ansas representatives in Congress and is being aided in his work by the oth : CT fortunate survivors of the Calves ton hurricane, who are likewise urg- ing their respective senators and Con- Sressmen to give the life saving crew proper recognition and that heir names go down in history as heroes
 Since launching the idea Major White has been receiving many letters from the other survivors an dothers who desire to. reward the Texas ere Y for their courage. One survivor sug- Sests that a. silver service be present. ed to the Texas by the survivors in addition to the medals and other awards which will undoubtedly come from Congress- and the Carnegie Hero Commission. The following letter was recently addresed to w. J. Chap man. manager of the pier which went down in the storm:
 Pine Bluff, Ark, Aug. 16, 19O9.-Mr W. J. Chapman,' Galveston, Texas, Pier No. 19.

AN ANSWER FILED
 10 MANDAMUS White and Alexander, Couu- sel for Police Judge Stew art Resist Issuance of
 Writ.
SAY ORDINANCE VOID
Police Judge Clerk of Own Court.- Says Council Has No Legal Authority to Transeicr
 Collections.

To prevent the issuance of writ of mandamus applied for by City At torney Sorrells under orders f~o,a the City Council, to compel Police Judge J. R. Stewart to pay over to City Collector A. G. Russell the fines. pen altles and forfeitures of the Police Department, noncompliance with an or dinance adopted recently by the city's legislative body transferring these duties to the collector from the po- lice. chief and police judge, Attorneys White and Alexander, counsel for Judge Stewart, yesterday filed their answer to the petition for mandapus. The attorneys, upon whose advice Judge Stewart refused to obey tho orders of the Council declare that the ordinance is illegal and void and unenforcible under the laws of Ark ansas. Many reasons are cited by the attorneys in their answer to sustain their contentious.
 They charge that it is beyond the power of the city's law makingbody to pass and enforce such an ordinance. The police judge, they say, must ac- count for all fines, penalties and forfeitures in police court and shall pay same into the hands of the city treasnerer. The police judge, they contend, is the clerk of his own court under the law, and shall have the care and custody of all records, papers and books belonging to his court The police judge is required to furnish a $2,500 bond for the faith ful discharge of his duties, which Judge Stewart has done
 Through his counsel, Police Judge Stewart charges that the City Coun- cil seeks to take away from him tho duties imposed upon him under the charter of the city to collect fines and forfeitures, and confers that right by an officer unknown to the law, which it has no legal authority to do

hen ordered him away.
 Accused Mans Story.
 Ed Williams told his story with tears in his eyes. He almost broke down completely several times while relating the repeated insults to which he had been subjected. He said when he discovered the intimacy of Lewis and his wife he ordered Lewis to stay away from his home. Lewis told hlm he was 21, in a free country, a privileged character and that he would come and go when he felt so disposed. Lewis later told Williams that he was we'll fixed and that as Williams was a poor man and a sranger in this section. he wanted to be his friend and wanted Williams to be his. Williams thought everything had been settled. but one day he says he returned to his home and found Lewis there. Lewis was drinking, Will Hams testified, and placed revolver under Williams nose. He relat al many other incidents in which he has been '.dogged to death" by Lewis.
 The Final Scene.
 The climax came, Williams sail, when on the night before the tragedy he and his two little girls were ill at home. His twelve year old daughte: came to his bedside and sobbingly ask ed him why he permitted Mamma to stay" with Mir. Lewis. When she was win us the little girl pleaded Eve had someone to wait on us." Williams said he could stand it no longer. He left hss sick bed, went to Lewis place and hid there, expecting, he said, to see his wife and urge her for the last time to return home. The next morning he went there again with his shotgun in hand. He hid himself in the bushes. not wishing to meet Lewis, and wait ed for his wife. Late in the afternoon his wife and Lewis appeared in the field. He accidently stepped on a limb while in the bushes and Lewis turned and caught sight of him. Will Hams says Lewis reached for his re- volver and he emptied his shotgun at him. killing Lewis instantly.

She and Williams uffered indignities repeatedly, they estifed and the fatal tragedy of June 4 was all that put an end to them. ! few weeks before Lewis was killed N Williams, however, Mrs. Lewis eart-broken and hopeless, took her wo sons and returned to the home of Ter parents at Eastwood, this county, where they are being cared for Mrs. lewis applied for divorce from Lew
