CHARGED WITH
FORGING CHECKS
Artll'lF Dame Of Mama Held to
await the Action of the
Grand Jury

On tuesday afternoon Arthur
Dame OF Mamma was arraigned in
the justice Of peace court of ]. A.
Douglas Esq, at this place on the
charge Of forgery. The charge was
made upon the information filed bv
Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Geo.
t. Black. 1t appears that at diff,
ferent times since the 18th day of
February of this year Dame had been
drawing checks on the Randolph
County Bank at this place, signing
the name of w. L. Rose. As he
had been atwork for Rose, the bank
at no~Nme detected the forgery of
these checks, and they passed as
good. All were for sums ranging
from f.YoU 10 Sl2.0O, the last being
drawn .tn1 cashed last Saturday.
Dame, IN open court, confessed
his guilt, giving no excuse why he
committed the deed. He was held
to answer what may be objected
against him by the grand jury al
the next term of circuit court and
was permitted to give bail in til,
sum of five hundred dollars. Th,
arrest was made by Deputy Sheriff
Perrin and in a default of bail Dam
now languishes in Jail.

THE LEANS WIN
IN BALL GAME
FatSGame Very Near MObbiHg
the Umpire in the Sixth In
ming

The leans carried off the honors
in Tuesdays ball game, the score
being l5 to 8. The fats claim it
was the "rotten" decisions of the
umpire, which happened to be this
editor, that caused them to lose the
game, On the other hand the leans
say that we favored the fats, other
wise they would never have made a
run. Be that as it may the above
score does not indicate that the
game was extremely "rocky" for
amateurs.
But if you did not see those little
fat fellows decked out in those loose.
fitting, fower-bedecked suits, you
missed a treat. Annie Redline, in
a harem skirt, would have looked
small by the side Of E. Dalton,
while Pearl Bispham was named
"Baby Elephant as soon as he ap.
peared on the ground. Lantic Mar
tin and John Pruitt were so thin that
it took both to hold down second
base.
The fat "boyS" are not satisfied,
however, and have proposed to
meet the leans again next Tuesday
afternoon and play to finish. This
time they propose that all the leans
must be married men and over 30
years of age. None of the fats are
to weigh less than 1870 pounds.

MAYNARD WINS
FROM POCAHONTAS

Pocabontas lost its first ball game
of the season Friday at the hands of
the Academy team which came down
and carried off .he honors with the
score of IL to 4. The defeat of the
home team was not unexpected how
ever, as only three of the regular
"Rexalls" were in the game, the re-
mainder being "pick ups. The
condition Of the grounds also made
the game a "rocky" one. The
Maynard boys are fine fellows and
our boys will probably meet them
again in the near future.
The Maynard team went over to
Hoxie Saturday and were defeated
by the Hoxle boys, the score being
10 to 3.

PUBLIC AND HIGH SCHOOLS
CLOSED LAST FRIDAY
Commencement Exercises at the Opera House
Largely Attended and Programs
Well Rendered

The closing of the 1911 term of
the Pocahontas public and high
schools last Friday, marked one of,
it not the best, term in the history
of Pocahontas. Although the term
was one month shorter than usual,
the students all finished their grades
two or three weeks ago, since which
time they have been doing review
work altogether. Prof. Spikes and
bis assistants have done good work
and the people of Pocahontas are
well pleased.
The closing exercises at the opera
house Thursday and Friday nights
were largely attended, especially on
Friday night, when standing room
was at premium. The large hall
was absolutely filled to overhowing
The excellent programs for each
night had been carefully prepared
and were rendered as nearly perfect
as we have ever seen. The gradu-
atIng classes and their representa-
tlves were at their best and a finer
looking set of young people we have
never seen. There were eight grad
yates from the high school and nine
teen from the common school de-
Partment.
A remarkable record in school
work, of which we wish to make
special mention, is that Of Tell

SUBSCRIPTIONS TO
GOV. DREW fund

Last Friday morning the editor
of the Star Herald circulated a pa
per asking for subscriptions to a
fund to be raised for the purpose OF
removing the remains of Gov. Drew
from Lipan, Tex, to Pocahontas'
We were out about two hours and
on the first round, seeing about one
half of the business men Of Poca-
hontas, we secured subscriptions to
the amount of SIG. We feel sure
we will be able to secure that much
more In Pocahontas alone. Uncle
Dennis Reynolds of Reyno advises
us that he has secured a neat sum
from the citizens of his town and
the amount and names of those
who contributed will be published
next week. We will publish list
from week to week showing the
amount subscribed until we secure
fund sufficient to accomplish the
intended purpose. We hope all who
wish to contribute to this fund will
report promptly. A meeting will
be called soon to make complete ar
rangements about having the re.
mains removed, appointing com.
mittees. etc. to have supervision of
the work.
Subscriptions received up to date
are as follows:

the high school. Young White Is
now in his fourteenth year, and is
perhaps, the youngest graduate in
the state. In the matter of regular
attendance h e has missed only
twenty-one roll calls during his
school life, which record we are sure
has not another equal in the state,
aud we doubt If a similar one can be
found anywhere.
We take pleasure in giving space
in the Star Herald this week to the
papers, oratlons, ETC., of the pupils
of the high school department.
We are sure tbev will be appreciat-
ed by all who are interested in the
cause Of education. We regret
that we have not space Tor those OF
the grammar grade, for they were
all excellent-equally as good, ac-
cordng to grade as those of the
high school graduates. However,
two years from now they will come
before us for the last time, as high
school students, and then we will
remember them as we have these.
Pictures of the two graduating
classes will appear next week. We
arranged tc have them for this is,

them to us in time.

MAY Be MURDERERS.
Three Boys Arrested on Charge of
Petit Larceny.

Omaha, March 29-Three boys. all
giving their ages as IT years, were ar
rested last night, charged with petit
larceny, and evidence uEearthed later
makes the police believe they are the
murderers of Herman B. Cohn. who
was killed near his home last Saturday
night, and also the perpetrators of a
number of holdups in the northern
part of the city during the last few
weeks.
The boys are Samuel Tiggs. alias L.
Andrews. Carl Deland and Harry
Steingger. and they all came from St.
Louis, Mo-, where, aeoOrGing to a let
ter from Tiggs to Deland, written in
January, they belonged to gang of
thieves and murderers.
Considerable plumber, which they
admit was stolen, was found in their
room at 81 Il North Fifteenth street.
They gave conflicting accounts of
their actions on Saturday night and in
a general way they answer the de-
scriptions of the Cohn mCrderers. The
police are subjecting them to rigid
examination.
