WORTHLESS CHECK
 PASSED HERE Smooth Individual Claiming to Represent Tobacco Firm Gets in His Work. HE HAS ONLY ONE EYE swindled Berlin Brothers Out of $90 and Disappeared in Rapid
 Fashion.
HE HAS ONLY ONE EYE

A man giving his name as c. J. Nelson, claiming to represent the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, of w nston-Salem, N. C., is being hunt ed by the police of this and neigh boring cities following ,he passing of a number of worthless checks in this and nearby cities and w'th which he is believed to have swin- dled business men out of large sums of money. Berlin Brothers, an old livery firm of this city, is one of the heaviest victims and after ob- timing S90 from that firm last Sat- urday, after banking hours, Nelson disappeared from the city as com pletely as f he had been swallowed up by the earth. and nothwithstand- ing the fact that his forgery Was dis covered within 2n hour after the check had been cashed by Berlin Brothers.
 Later an inquiry revealed the fact that Nelson had tried to pass worth
 less cheeks at other local establish ments, includ ng Gottlieb's, Stern and Lewis and R. H. Stearns and hill of lumber from J. w. Sanders mill under 'ahe promise that he would call for it later, but he has never shown up. One check for $75 drawn on the Reynolds Tobacco Company. is still in possession of Charles Levi, Nelson having left :: there to be o. K'd. He promised to call and get the money and some clothing on it later, but he over looked it intentionally.
 Nelson rented rigs from Berlin Brothers for several days and owed them $30. He gave them a check for s120 and $9O in change was given h 'm The check was soon found to be worthless and Constable Frank Stewart and Chief of Police Evan Parnell and all his men went to work in an effort to capture Nell son, but he got away. Every train was closely inspected at the Union St9tion and at all crossings and water tanks, but the man evidently left the city afoot during a down pour of rain. He had been stopping at the Pacific Rooming House on East Third avenue.
 A telegram received by Constable Stewart yesterday from the Wins ton-Salem tobacco company said that reward is offered for the ar rest and convict on of Nelson. The tobacco firm says de does not rep resent them, but has swindled number of business men in Arkansas Tennessee and Mississippi in the same manner as he used here.
 Nelson, who assumes many names, is tall individual fairly well dressad wears a brown overcoat and black derby, sometimes a white hat. and wears glasses, one of which is frosted. He is about 4S or 50 years old and is slightly stopped. He has only one eye.
 The officers believe that Nelson took skiff down the Arkansas river. The woman who conducts the Pacific Rooming House says n was common thing for Nelson to dis play $1OO bills while stopping at her hotel He did not fail to pay his bill at the rooming house when he left the city.

 A Cold, La Grippe. Then Pneumonia.
 Is too often the fatal sequence, and coughs that hang on weaken the sys- tenn and lower the vital resistance. Foley's Honey and Tar Compound is a reliable medicine that stops the cough promptly by healing the cause; soothes the inflamed air passages, and checks the cold. Keep always on hand. Refuse substitutes. w. L. Dewoodv &sGO.

Pine Bluff, March 24, 1912.

Pine Bluff NEarch 24, 1912 Eugene Williams,
 Donaghey Headquarters Little Rock:
 An indication of the change of sentiment in this city and county within the past three weeks, or even ten days lies in the fact that at tllat time some of Robinsons supporters were offering to bet even money that he would carry Jefferson county, but could fird no one who wanted to bet on Donaghey.
 Las night Magistrate "Joe' Frazier who is recognized as Robinsons local manager and who has been nicknamad "Joe T,'', because he has nev- CT been known to call the congressman anything else, started out to hunt for Donaghey money, noncng that he had one thousand dollars to wager that Robinson would be nominated ion governor He had no sooner reached the Jefferson Hotel 112an his thousand was caHzT2d by man who up to the middle of last week had oean supporter of Robinson
 No other wagers have been offered on Robin son; on the other hand, there are many here who are now offering to give odds in wagers that Dona- ghee will be nominated.
 Another thing that has had much to do with the change of sentiment in favor of Governor Donaghay here is the failure of Robinson to meet or answer the governors charge that the congress man some years ago was the beneficiary of the Jeff Davis pardon bureau to the extent of S8 900, when Robinson was relieved of his obligation in that sum as bonds1nan foe defauling cashier at DeVa. bluff.
 Flo ler friends of Robinson are asking what sort of 8 governor the congressman would make if he has such lax notions of commercial integrity as to be relieved of an obligation that took the bread and met cut of the mouths of the families and the good horest workingpen and ctitizens of Peairia county while holding down a seat in the national legislature at Washington.
 How could Robinson refuse if elected gover- nor to grant other pardon attorneys the same i'm 'nunity from the payment of their just dehts when he sought and received such indemnity from E. Governor Jeff Davis? The senator like other dsgruntled politicians is still opposing Donaghey, as he has done in past campaigns, because he has never been able to use or intimidate the gover- TOT.
 Arkansas has outgrown the when all sorts of malefactors, frop bootleggens to murdeeers car hope to escape the punishment meted out to them by our courts by applying for executive eemency, either directly to the governor or through one of many pardon attorneys.
 They are therefore distrustful of any candi- date for governor who is charged with being beneficiary of Fix Governor Davis pardon Dil- reau and who does not deny or explain away this charge
 Prominent citizens f.5efn Arkansas, Lincoln, Cleveland and Grant counties who have been here the past week report marked change of senti- ment in those counties from Robinson to Dona ghey
 From this place it looks like a landslide for Donaghey next Wednesday.
