Chansonnette.


Clouds in u sultry sky
Silently drifting,
Shapes that are endlessly
Changing and shifting,
Mists of the eve that fall
Over the heather
What care we for them all
So we're together?
Over life's golden stream
Swift we are flowing,
All in waking dream
Speeding and slowing;
Gather what joy we may
From loves red roses,
Hasten. for life's long day
Draws out and closes.

GOOD COTTON MARKET

Tom Jernigan, a good citizen of the Moorefeld neighborhood, was selling cotton in town Saturday and incidentally boosting Newark as a good business town. MT. Jer- nigan was offered only 12l cents for his cotton in Batesville, but refused to sell for that price and brought 1t to Newark and received B cents for it.

GREEN DIES FROM
 GUNSHOT WOUNDS
Johnson Acted in Self-Defense and Was Discharged at Prelimin-
 ary Trial Monday

Bob Green, who was shot at Paroquet Wed nesday of last week by Sterling Johnson, died Thurs day night of his wounds.
 Johnson was arraigned before Squire Saylors for preliminary trial Monday, and was discharged, all the evidence going to show that Johnson acted in self-defense. Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Earle Casey represented the State in the preliminary trial, and Attor- ney J. R. Alexander appeared for the defense.
 Mrs. Green, widow of the dead man, testified that she tried to prevent him taking the gun and going into Johnson's lot. but could do nothing with him.
 Mrs. Linebaugh, who was pick ing cotton nearby testified that she saw Green enter Johnson's lot carrying a gun, and heard him say: I am coming to get you"
 Ray Jones, another eyewitness, testified that Green cussed Johnson and told him he was coming after him. Johnson was seemingly. try ing to hide from Green, he said.
 Charley Akins testified that he heard Green tell Johnson he was "going to get him" and saw Green load his gun and take aim at John- son.
 All the testimony showed that Johnson had always been a peace able and quiet man, and had never before had any trouble with any one. It was also shown that Green was considered a bully" and a dangerous man. Green was a very large man, more than six feet tall, was well-built, and had few equals in physical prowess.
 Green was 40 years old and leaves widow and two step-child- ren, but no children of his own. He was raised in Stone county, near Mountain View. Two broth CTS, Charley and Isom Green, came down to attend the funeral, which was held Friday and the remains were buried at Mount Zion.
