LETTER FROM ARNOLD
Former Husband of Dora Arnold
Threatens to File Suit.

y new development appeared in the
case of O'Neil VS.. Arnold this morn
ing when County Attorney Atchison
received a letter from Roscoe Arnolc,
Dora's former husband, threatening
to bring suit against Fred J. O'Neil
and Mrs. Mary c. Wells, Dora's moth
er, for violation of the white slave law.
O'Neil filed suit against Dora Ar
mold for obtaining $125 under false
pretenses. He alleges they were to
be married July 8: he gave her a
check to buy furniture; she departed
for Oklahoma and mailed O'Neil
postal wherein was printed, You're
a Lobster and upon which she had
scrubbed, "Stung!"
Then Roscoe Arnold, who was di
vorced from the woman several years
ago, entered the controversy. He
wrote County Attorney Atchison for
full particulars of the case. Mr.. Atchi-
son forwarded him a brief summary.
Now arrives a startling epistle accus-
ing O'Neil and Mrs. Wells of desiring
Dora's return for white slave purposes.
''Shan't answer the letter. Mr..
Atchison observed.
Immediately after filing suit, O'Neil
departed for New Jersey. Until he
returns the case is a a StandStill. Dora
Arnold was located in Ada, Okla Ar
nold's letter was mailed from McAles-
ter He describes himself as a mind
reader, confidential agent, and pri-
vate detective-and seems much inter
ested in the welfare of his former
wife.

the only way to bring up child was
to whip it. No statement by Mrs.
Thorpe or Mrs. Abbott could shake
them in their belief. Forte is said to
have whipped her for every little mis-

alleged to have been favored by his

Detective Carl Golf went to the
home this morning after Policewoman
Eva Corning had investigated the case
thoroughly. Forte said this afternoon
that he was under no obligations to
keep the little girl and that she could
look for another home. He is said to
have beaten her the last time because
she chased some chickens into the
yard after he had told his wife to do
it. Because she misunderstood him,
the complaint says, he severely beat
her with a strap, and then the police
were notified.

New York. July 11.-Detectives are
baffled on the scentless trail of rob-
bers who stole 143 packages of per-
fume weighing about 1 400 pounds and
valued at about $1,000 from a down
town depot. Although several fixeo
post policemen were stationed in the
vicinity, it is believed the thieves
backed up a truck to the depot late
in the afternoon just after the place
had been closed and loaded their
booty. There was evidence that the
robbers had slept in the depot until 4
o'clock in the morning, having set an
alarm clock to wake them and then
drove away. They also took S14 in

Little Rock, Nov. 20.-There is a great deal of local interest in the ap- pointments to be made at the Little Rock Conference of the NJ. E. Church, South, now in session at Pine Bluff, with Bishop Kilgo presiding. There will be at least three changes in Lit tie Rock pulpits. Rev. P. c. Fletcher, who has been pastor at Winfield Memorial four years, will be given another charge. There have been rumors that Rev. James Thomas, a former pastor of the Winfield, will be transferred here from Texarkana, where he is completing four-year pastorate, although the people at Pine Bluff are anxious to secure him. It is also reported that Rev. J. s. L. Cannon of Hunter Memorial, will locate, and that Rev. H. F. Buhler of Capitol View will not return. Rev. w. R. Richardson of the First M. E.
