REFUGEE CAUGHT
 AT W|LMOT, ARK.
Man Charged With Assaulting Sta. tiOn Agent Is Hurried
 to BastrOp.

Monroe, La, March 16.-SectiOn Foreman Cunningham. who is alleged to have beaten Miss Stone, the young station agent at Jones, last night, was arrested early this morning at Wilmot, Ark, eight miles north of Jones, by Special Agent Brown of the Iron Mountain.
 Cunningham was attempting to board a freight train when captured. He was brought back to Bastrop and placed in the More House Parish jail this morning. Had it not been for the activity of the railroad officials, the man would have escaped, as Sheriff Scoggin refused to take any action until warrant was sworn out and placed in his hands.
 The trouble grew out of the action of the section foreman taking the part of negro against the young woman in matter of pay for work at the depot.
 In this Cunningham was not con- cerned. The man cursed and abus- ed the girl, then struck her in the face, knocked her down, kicked her about the floor, caught her by her hair and dragged her out of the de- pot, after which he threw her on the railroad tracks. He walked out of  to stop him.
 After his capture Cunningham was rushed to Bastrop for safekeeping.

Roy was the district justice, crossroads
merchant and a farmer He was bigger
in his territory than Taft is in his. People
actually feared Squire Roy. The story
goes, so Smith says, that farmer had
brought two dozen eggs in to sell to Roy,
the proceeds to be used in buying needles
and thread. The eggs were packed in
Oottonseed to keep them from breaking
The justice had removed the eggs from the
basket and had swept the seed to one side
on the counter, to be taken out a. trash.
The farmer in the meantime had gone out
to attend to his stock, and when he re-
turned to get pay for the eggs his eye fell
upon the seed on the counter.
