HE IS STILL AT LARGE

Sanford Berry, who shot and killed
Levi NJ. Henry, his brotherin-law, at
Buffers Mill, yesterday morning at 9

According to the best information OBJ
tainable late last night, Butler went

LEFT PINE BLUFF
TO GET SOME SLEEP
Little Rock Eagle Tells Friends That's
Why He Went Home
Early.

Little Rock, June 19.-About forty
of the members of the Fraternal Or
der of Eagles who journeyed to Pine
Bluff Tuesday morning returned to
Little Rock at noon Wednesday, claim
ing that the next convention of the or
der was assured this city.
The local men who journeyed to the
meeting had great time, and were
loud in their praise of Pine Bluff for
the entertainment furnished. Dan d.
Quinn, circuit clerk, was among one of
the arrivals Wednesday at noon. He
stated that Herbert S. Turner, county
clerk, had deserted the crowd, leaving
Pine Bluff at o'clock Wednesday
morning, because he claimed he could
not sleep.
Many of the local Eagles are so sure
of the next convention, although the
ballot will not take place until tomor-
row, that plans are already being
talked of for the entertainment OF
those who visit this city next year
when the aeries meet.
