TWO LOSE LIVES
 IN BLOODY DUELS MORE TROUBLE EXPECTED ED LINDSEY AND CHARLES BROWN MEET DEATH IN
 LITTLE ROCK.

l Little Rock, April 6.-Two dead and one dying and two others wounded arc the results of double tragedies in Lit t3e Rock and Argenta yesterday after noon and this morning, the duels being the aftermath of Tuesdays election In Argenta, which precipitated blood shed from a bitter feud of several years duration.
 Ed Lindsey was shot and killed by l Will Scott, Scott himself receiving se- ri0us injuries in the affray, in Little Rock yesterday afternoon. Charles l Brown was killed by E. A. Pipkln in Argenta at 2 o'clock this morning, Pipkin being shot in the leg and Louis HiId, with whom he was engaged in i duel, receiving what was thought this morning to be fatal wounds.
 The affair in which Brown was kill ed occurred in front of Harry kahn's saloon. Brown had been strong par tisan of the Faucette administration and had engaged in nal fist fights during the day as a result of political arguments. Earlier in the day he mad severely beaten Deputy Prosecuting Atto1 ney Frank Henders )n, a Paine worker.
 It is thought that the shooting of Brown was accidental, as he and Pip kin had been on friendly terms. Ear Her in the evening Pipkin and an un- known machinist had engaged in an altercation in Kahn's saloon. Brown had taken Pipkin's part and beaten up the machinist.
 Early this morning Pipkin and Lois Hid became involved in dispute in Kahn's saloon. Pipkin went out in front and Hid remained in the saloon. The dispute was continued at long range and both men drew their guns apparently about the same time and commenced shooting. The men in the saloon made nasty dive for the rear exits and as they went out they met Brown coming in. He had apparently been attracted by the sounds of the shots.
 What the h- is this all about?" he asked. as he made his way to the front of the saloon.
 The shots continued and when they ceased and the spectators made their way to the front of the saloon, they found Brown stretched upon the side walk. breathing his last. The bullet had entered his right breast and an- gled about until it penetrated his heart He died in about four minutes.
 Hid had fallen to the floor of the saloon with shattered leg.
 Pipkin had disappeared, but few minutes later he was arrested by Pa troln1en Brassfeld and Weaver about 50 feet west of the saloon. He had been shot in the right leg.
 The first death occurred in Little Rock at o'clock Wednesday after noon. when Will Scott, an Argenta officer, shot and killed E. Lindsey, a former deputy constable of Argenta, in the office of J. A. Conner, Little Rock lawyer. Scott was shot in the wrist and leg. and was struck over the forehead with a revolver, gash marking the place where the heavy Colt revolver landed. The office of Attorney Conner is over the Union Tust Company, Second and Louisiana streets, in the very heart of the busi- ness section of the city, and when the reports of the pistol shooting rang out, the excitement grew intense. At torney Conner and another client were in the room when the shooting began, but left before it was over. Lindsey lay dead on the floor and Scott, des- nerately wounded, refused to open the door for fear another of his enemies was coming in, until assured that Lit tie Rock officers were there to protect him. As the shooting was the result of the election in Argenta Tuesday and both sides are determined. more shooting is sure to occur and it is nrobable Governor Donaghey will or der out the nearest company of the Arkansas National Guard and declare Argenta under martial law until paece again reigns.
 Within an hour after the killing two brothers of the dead man came over the river from Argenta, one armed with double-barreled shotgun and the other carried pump-gun. Each of the men wore a brace of re- volvers also. They started out to look | for Scott or anyone who looked like ae if they mipht have had hand in the killing. Little Rock officers met them and persuaded them tn return across the river. but even this is not exnected to do more than temporarily delay the clash of the factions. According to Conner. Scott. who has been client of his for years. was in his office giving denosition when Ed Lindsey came into his office from the stenographer's room at tho side en-
