Nothing concerning the profession

NEW GRAFT GAME
IS WORKED HERE
Merchants Are Victinized
by Man Representing
Self as Press Agent.

A new game of graft has been discov-
cred by one Of the local bankers. A
smooth, nervous young chap appeared
at one of the local banks and claimed
to be representing Ringing Bros circus
as an advance agent. He asked if it
would be possible to secure New York
drafts in exchange for the cash receipts.
He asked for business card of the bank
to send to the treasurer This was given
him.
Later he contracted for a quantity of
groceries and meat from local dealers,
using the bank card as a reference. From
one he collected S2.75 for an advertise
ment in the program of the circus, say
ing that that was his rakeoff for placing
the contracts. He claimed the circus
was to be here August II. As there is
no date announced for this circus for
FL Paso and there has been no paper
distributed, it is a safe bet that the man
was working a little graft all his own.
The police are looking for him.

NEGRO rs SEEKING
RELEASE FROM JAIL

There is q negro in the county Jail
who does not believe that the United
States is much better than Mexico when
Justice is the subject under discussion,
he is George Munroe, the negro who
was an inmate of the Juarez Jail at the
time the town was taken by the rebels.
All of the prisoners were released at
that time and Munroe lost no TINA in
getting across the bridge to the Amer
lean side. The charge against him in
Juarez was the alleged shooting sof
race track man last winter Alunroe was
arrested by a special agent of ne de-
partment of justice as soon as he crossed
the bridge. and placed in the county jail.
But no charge has vet been filed against
him and no extradition proceedings be-
gun to have him removed to Mexico for
trial.
The negro is making an effort to OBJ
tain hearing in habeas corpus in the
hope that he will be given his liberty
by the American courts.

COwardly Murder.

Monday morning about o'clock, Andy Reed tcolored) brutally murder ed his wife, at Madison, four miles from this city.
 We learn from deputy j. T. John son the following particulars:
 Reed and his wife had separated she refusing to live with him on ac. count of his conduct toward his step daughter. Sunday Reed sent word te his wife to come and get her clothes As she entered the back yard about : o'clock Monday morning, Reed empti. ed the contents of shot gun into the body of the unfortunate woman, not contented with this he fired two loads from rifle, and fiendishly finished with revolver.
 Reed was under the influence of whisky. He surrendered to Mr NJ. o. Ballard. Deputy Johnson brought Reed to this city and placed him in jail.
 And this adds another to the long list of killings which have disgraced this county and few of which have been punished.

MISS BEUlAH WILLIAMS
After Long Illness and Brave Struggle With Grim Reaper, Passes Peace.
 fully to Her Reward.

The Times has from week to week during several weeks noted the serious illness of Miss Reulah Williams. and her then condition, with sadness and still alarm, but with hope that she might yet win the brave and patient fight that she was making for her life; and even last week, we noted that her loved ones, who watched at her bedside thought her condition improved.
 The supposed improvement was but the sweetness of her hope of heaven when it was revealed to her mind and at 1 o'clock, on Sunday morning, June Ilth, 1911, the pure soul left it's earthly habitation of clay, and winged it's flight to it's Maker on high. And there was rejoicing in heaven
 Miss Beulah Williams was a sister of Messrs. James w, of Wynne, and Elmer. of Washington state, and of Mesdames Fondren and o. E. Hamble- ton, of this city, and Rose West. of Felton She was born near Union Springs, Alabama. and came to this county with others ofher family many years ago. Of late years she has made her home at Wynne, with her brother, Mir. Jas, w, Williams, and for several yearswas ainthe millinery departmnet and bookeeperof his store. She was en- tirely devoted to her relatives and they to her, and her untimely demise is indeed sad bereavement to them, and to many friends with whom she had surrounded herself by her kindly disposition and sweet devotion
 The funeral services were conducted by her pastor, Elder Alexander, of Wynne, assisted by Elder Garrott, the local pastor at the Baptist church, on Monday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock, in the presence of a large congregation of relatives and friends which over flowed the building. In commenting upon her pure life and Christian char acte her pastor paid her glowing and deserved tribute. Friends spoke their love in generous and beautiful of fering of flowers, and all followed her earthly remains to the Forrest City cemetery where they were tenderly laid away to await the resurrection morn, when angels will sing
 "Oh, grave where is thy victory.
 Oh, Death where is thy sting?e
 and she will rise in glory everlasting
 The Times feels deep and sincere sympathy for it's friends, her bereayed brothers, sisters and other relatives Hers was lovely and a loyable char acter pure In every thought and deed, to whom they were deeply de. voted To them we know that our feeble pen can bring no surcease Of sorrow. nor lessen their great loss one iota. We would that we could assuaga their grief, or bind up their lacerated hearts, but this is divine, and God, who alone knows why it is best. says by faith We may see her again. To Him then they must go for consolation, and He will give them rest.
