To Have County Fair.

c. w. Watson, state demonstra- tion agent for the U. s. govern ment, made an address to a large number of farmers at Fl Dorado last Monday in the interest of a county fair and considerable en- thusiasm was aroused.
 The railroads have agreed to transport the exhibits of Union county to Hot Springs to the state fair free of charge and it will be composed of the premium articles. so is bound to reflect credit on the county if the people will get back of the movement and from now on save or can the best you have until the fair, which will probably be held the first week in October. The State Fair will give to the farmers and Boys Corn Clubs over $3,OOO in premiums this year, so all have a chance at taking the premium in the county fair at Fl Dorado and also at the state fair at Hot Springs.
 There will be several noted authorities on agriculture and live stock deliver free lectures and also free moving pictures of agricultur- al scenes every night during the fair.
 The ten best ears of corn exhib- tied at Fl Dorado will be sent to the National Corn Show at Charles ton. South Carolina, as will also the best ten ears from all other counties, so you can see what a boost as a corn state which she is old Arkansas will get all over country, as people from every state will be there. Don't forget and resolve now to exhibit some thing at the fair.

BODY HORRIBLY INITIATED.
Three Held i'm Connection with
North Carolina Murder.

Warsaw, N. c., Nov. 21.-The
mutilated body of Frank Bentley, 25
years old, foreman of a cheese fac
tory at Union Corners, was found to-
day in a shallow grave on a farm
near the village of North Java. AL
thos Prince, 35 years old, farmer
and neighbor of Bentley, and Louis
and Harry Weber, Princes brothers.
in-laws, are held tonight by the sher-
if in connection with the crime.
Prince, who is a married man, ad-
mits, according to the sheriff, that
he had some words with Bentley
over domestic affairs, but denies all
knowledge of his death.
When Bentley, who went hunting
Saturday, failed to appear at work
Monday morning searching parties
were organized. Yesterday afternoon
on the Woodhouse farm they found
blood-spattered leaves and a pool of
blood. There was deep track also,
apparently made by laden wheel
barrow.
The sheriff, after questioning
Prince, ordered him locked up and
seized a wheelbarrow and a pair of
overalls found in Princes barn. They
were covered with red stains. To-
day searchers followed buggy tracks
from a lot on Princes farm to
clump of woods, where, under pile
of brush, they found a newly made
grave, in which Bentley's body had
been buried.

Crawled in Empty House to Die.

Atlanta, Nov. 20.-When work
men went to repair a locked and va
cant house at As Electric avenue
Monday afternoon they found an
aged woman, emaciated and uncon-
scious, lying on the bare, cold floor
of one of the rooms, with bundle
of rags under her head for a pillow.
The woman was Mrs. Anna Tried,
and she had almost starved to death,
alone in the vacant house where she
had crawled to die after hopeless ef-
forts to obtain work or charity, she
declares.
The astounded workmen who open
ed the house thought first that they
had to deal with a murder, but when
closer examination revealed the fact
that the woman was still breathing,
they called for an ambulance, and
she was rushed to hospital. 1t was
there, in a warm bed, after stimu-
lants had been poured down her
parched throat that the woman was
able to whisper out her story.
Mrs. Tried declared that she had
had nothing to eat but a couple OF
crusts of bread in the past three
weeks, and that it had been several
days since she had even tasted a drop
of water.
She had crawled into the vacant
house when all but overcome by hum
ger, and knew only in a vague way
how many days she had spent there.
The hospital authorities consider
her story most remarkable, and the
case is being investigated. 1t has
been asserted time and again that
there is no reason for any one, how
ever poor, to suffer the actual pains
of hunger in Atlanta. There are too
many charitable institutions and too
many charitably inclined individuals
for that, it has always been averred
and oft-times proven.
Why Mrs. Tried was unable to
avail herself of the ordinary aids OF
charity, whether she was too proud,
or whether any one refused her, have
not been ascertained, as she is still
too weak to tell very many details OF
her tragic experience.

Negro Killed by Train.

Barnwell, Nov. 25.-Thos. Walker,
colored, was found dead yesterday
morning on the right of way of the
Southern Railway, near the Barnwell
Lumber Company's plant on the out
skirts of town. DR.. ]. G. Wooley,
who performed the autopsy at the
coroner's inquest, stated that from
the wound in his back and head and
judging from the length of time he
had been dead, he was struck by the
Southern's fast south-bound train,
which passes Barnwell about 2
O'Clock a. m. The verdict of the
Jury was in accordance with the
above facts. A bottle of whiskey was
found near the body and it is said
that Walker was on his way to a
"hot supper" at the mill and was pre-
sumably so under the influence Of
liquor that he failed to hear the ap-
proach of the train.
