Hedgpath Held on Grave Charge,

H. D. Hedgpath, who claims Free man, Mo-, as his home, was brought here the latter part of last week by Cross county officers and lodged in jail on charge of having attempted an assault upon the person of the l2-year- old daughter of John Speer near Hamlin. Hedgpath is a sewing ma chine agent, it is said, and stopped at Speer's place when there was nobody at home except the little girl Hedg- path it is said, intimidated and fright ened the child by drawinghis gun and threatening her. It is further stated that the little girl ran away to the house of neighbor, where, in terror and excitement, she reported the cir constance and gave such a minute description of the man who had in- suited and threatened her, that Hedg- path was soon captured and hurried away to the jail in this city for safe keeping, and possibly to shield the prisoner from the wrath of the over- wrought citizens of the Hamlin com munity, where feeling ran high when news of Hedgpeth's alleged treacher- ous and shameful conduct became current. Hedgpeth, who is still in jail here, claims that he is innocent

Local Fanciers Win Prizes,

MT Tommie O'Brien, of the Palace Market, arrived home Tuesday even- ing from the City of Roses, where he had been to attend the annual meet ing of the Little Rock Poultry Asso- citation. The gentleman reports that the competition which he met in Lit tie Rock was just as stiff as that which he had to "gO up against" in Mem- phis. He says his chickens went in against fowls which cost the winner of the first prizes SllO0. The man Brinkley, of Iuka, Mississippi, who carried away the first prizes, did not breed his own chickens, it is said, but purchased them of Northern breeder, who sold them upon the guarantee that they would bring home the grapes, or no money. Tommie says he had the assurance from number of breeders at the Little Rock show that if the contest had been confined strictly to amateur breeders the chick ems from the Crowley Ridge White Rock Yards would have swept the board.
 Despite the fact that his chickens were forced to compete with the slJOO White Rocks from Wisconsin, MT. O'Brien was awarded 4th cock, 4th and 5th cockerel, Sd and 4th hen, 4th and 5th bullet and Sd pen, in the scoring.
 MT. W. s. Alley, who also sent one Of his White Orpingtons to the Little Rock show, scored 4th cockerel
 The Times Is glad that the local breeders are taking in the various shows over the country. They pick up much valuable information that will help them greatly in improving their fowls and breeding along scien, titic lines.

Poultry Show Catalogues.

The catalogue and premium list for the Tri-County Poultry Associa- tion, which will hold it's show in Forrest City on November 10, II and l2, Is be- ing issued this week from The Times job department. The poultry show in Forrest City this fall promises to surpass anything of it's kind ever given in Eastern Arkansas. All the local fanciers are grooming their fowls in preparation for the exhibit, and quite number of foreign exhibitors have signitied their intention of sending their birds to the Forrest City show There is also a runner to the effect that the Marianna poultry cranks who have reneged in this game for the past two seasons, are making silent prepa- rations for coup at the show here this fall. The Times feels certain that if the Lee county poultry raisers take the notion into their heads to exhibit their fowls, they will prove the strongest kind of competitors. Come on, Marianna and Lee county you will be thrice welcome.

Session Stories
Judge Stearns
Falls and Rises
In Wrong Places.

Jovial Judge Stearns of Bangor is hav-
ing a fine time during his visit in augusta
to attend the sessions of the Legislature
Tuesday afternoon the Judge entered
the hall of representatives and appro-
priated a seat near the rear. AS the
hearing progressed the Judge, presum-
ably, acquired interest The chairs in the
hall are of the swivel type and won't
stand without hitching when a man OF
Judge Stearns build too greatly offends
the laws of gravitation. Hence, though
the appearance of the judges heels wav-
ing in air, with the accompanying crash,
was rather startling but not surprising.
Wednesday morning, the judge was
earnestly conversing with Senator Her
sey, during the Senate session. President
Milliken announced that the senators
would stand for counting in the vote on
the passage TO be enacted of the fish
hatcheries resolve Nearly all the sena-
tors stood Judge Stearns did his best to
make the thing unanimous-he stood, a
laugh went up, Senator Hersey turned
around and Joined. So did President Mil
liken. SO did everybody who understood.
So did Judge Stearns-and sat down.
