HIT OFFICER WITH CLUB
Squire Brown of Cushman Seri- ousIy Wounded by Will
 Williams

Gran Stokes, Will Williams and John Copeland attacked Squire Brown on the streets at Cushman Saturday night. The officer was struck on the head by Williams with a heavy club, inficting a wound that came near proving fatal
 The parties who attacked the officer had acquired an overload of bad Christmas booze. Itseems that Brown undertook to arrest Stokes when Williams interfered and struck the officer a severe blow on the head.
 Thinking they had killed him, the three men made a hasty get away. Sheriff Fike succeeded, however, in capturing Stokes and Williams and they were lodged in jail at Batesville to await the out come of the officers injuries.
 Williams killed his cousin, Duff Williams, at Oil Trough, a few years ago, and IS considered a rath- CT tough character. He is said to have held a grudge against the officer as result of having been fined by him for some previous misconduct. He is said to have gone to Cushman with the avowed intention of cleaning out the place

CAUGHT WITH GOODS ON HIM.
Inspector Makes Sensational Capture
of Mail Clerk.

. Pittsburg, March 16.-Inspector
M. George Craighead made sensa-
tional leap through the general de-
livery window at the main office at
4 a. m. and caught Charles E. Fran
els, letter carrier, and one of Post
master Davis's most trusted en-
ployees, with the goods.
Craighead had been watching from
a position overhead for several hours,
and finally saw Francis make move
ment that decided him to act. Slipping
to the door of the main public corri-
dor he squeezed his way through the
delivery window, and going around a
case laid his hand on Francis's shoul-
der and asked:
What do you mean by opening
those letters?"
What letters?" asked Francis,
turning pale.
Before he had a chance to speak
further Craighead shook him down
and recovered seven letters, address,
ed to business houses, some of which,
had been opened and the money con-
tanned in them taken.
