CONWAY GIRL IS
 BELIEVED VICTIM POISONED NEEDLE ATTACK FORT SMITH OFFICERS CARE FOR YOUNG LADY AND SEND
 HER HOME.

That Marie Dawes, a young girl travelling alone from Cartersville. Mo. to Conway, Ark, was sought at Fort Smith as victim by white slavers, who thrust poisoned needle into her cheek, is the belief expressed by Fort Smith officers, according to a story in yesterdays Times Record. The news paper states that if such were the case the efforts of the girls assailants were frustrated and the girl tenderly cared for until she could be sent on her way home.
 There are several families by the name of Dawes living in Faulkner county, but 1t could not be ascertained here today whether the girl reached here. The Times s-Record story fol- lows:
 Has the poisoned needle gang of white slavers made it's appearance in this city? Perhaps not, but the ex- perience of pretty little Marie Dawes, who was travelling alone from Carters- vile, Mo, to Conway, Ark, is very similar to that reported from the other cities where the gang has been work ing.
 If the poison gang had marked her for its victim, the plans were foiled by the watchfulness and quick action of Depot Policeman Phillips and Ma tron Stevens, on duty at the Iron Mountain station. 1t was about 9:3O last night when Policeman Phillips mo- ticed the girl acting in singular man. ner. Mrs. Stevens had gone home, as the matron is only on duty during the day, so Phillips called up Mrs. Stevens and reported the case to her. He stated that he would keep a strict surveillance on the girl and that if anything happened, that he would call up the matron again.
 Mrs. Stevens did not wait for a sec ond call, but hastened to the depot. Arriving there, she found the girl in a doze, her head in the lap of strange lady. Mrs. Stevens tried to arouse the girl but could not. Mrs. Stevens decided that the best thing that could be done for the child, was to take her to her home and keep her there over night and send her to Con- way on the early morning train. The woman who had been caring for the girl stated that she would see the child safely off at Conway, but Mrs. Stew ems thought that a certainty beat talk ing any chances, and declined the offer.
 "On starting for the depot with the child, Mrs. Stevens noticed a prick and drop of blood on the cheek of the child, but thought nothing of it at the time.
 "The girl slept like log all night and in the morning appeared to be a very different person. She stated that soon after she left Cartersville she noticed a strange man following her, but that he never spoke to her. On arriving here, she was transferred from the union station to the Iron Mountain depot, and that soon there after she was seized with a peculiar feeling and began to grow drowsy. She had never felt that way before and she was unable to account for it. She stated that her father was to meet her at the depot at Conway.

decided in the federal court Monday af-
ternoon when the jury in the case Of

as fireman for the Santa Fe- The cir
cumstances Of the accident were
peculiar. Hines was the fireman
on Santa Fe engine and
was unable to read the water gage be-
cause of the accumulation of allzaH on
the surface of the glass. He shut off
the steam and started TO remove the
glass when it exploded, destroying the
sight of his left eye and 1nJurlnS him
permanently. 1t developed in the trial
of the case that there was nail in the
screen which guards the water glass
and this was removed by Hines with
out knowing that this nail held the
shield in place. He was forced TO I'M
dergO an operation. The jury was out
only a short time when II returned the
verdict in favor Of the plaintiff.
