SLICK NEGRO IS
 LANDED IN JAIL
Chase of Two Months Ends Last Night When Chief Fiyeash Arrests
 Marsha Douglas.

Marsha Douglas, negro, who has been sought for the past two months on charges of forgery, grand larceny and petit larceny, was arrested last night about il o'clock by Night Chie1 of Police w. D. Fiveash, at Tenth and Cypress streets, where he had gone to spend the night.
 Douglas is accused of forging two checks on Ben Howard, a negro gro ceryman in the western part of the city. One check was made for $l6 and the other for $7.35. He was also wanted for having stolen suit of clothes from another negro and for burglarizing a house and stealing a number of pieces of wearing apparel.
 The officers have been on his trail for the past six weeks, but each time he managed to make his escape. He has twice outrun the officers, and at one time when caught by Patrolman Rice, and while on the way to the po- lice station, outwitted his captor. Douglas asked the officer to allow him to go upstairs at the Masonic temple to see another negro. The officer agreed, but said that he would have to accompany him. After they reached the top of the stairs, the negro went

STAR CITY REUNION
 ISSUE ON TUESDAY
The Graphic Will Be Distributed Free to Thousands at Confederate
 ,CAlnhratiOn


 The regular annual Star City Con- federate reunion issue of The Graphic will be published Tuesday, July 21, the date of the big barbecue and cele- bration which is yearly event at Star City. These reunions are at tended by hundreds of people from the counties of Ashley, Lincoln and Desha, as we'll as from Jefferson, and several thousand copies of The Graphic are distributed free among the participants.
 The distribution this year, as usual, will be carefully supervised by a representative of The Graphic staff, thus assuring that each copy of the paper will find it's way into the hands of a person who will take it home, where it will be read by other mem bers of the family. The manner of distribution and the fact that The Graphic is taken as souvenir makes the Star City Confederate reunion is sue an especially valuable advertising medium for the retail trade. The ad- vertisement department has made eff fort to have all it's retail trade friends invited to have representation in this issue, but some may have been inadvertently overlooked. A phone call to IA will bring a representative immediately.

WARM FIGHT FOR
 ELECTION BOARD State Commissioners Dis agree Over Jefferson
 Recommendations.
CHANGE APPOINTEES
Board Will on Monday Reconsider Some of the Appointments made, Especially in POinsett-Fight in
 Hampstead Over Courthouse.

Little Rock, July 17.-Another meet ing of the state board of election commissioners will be held Monday morning for the purpose of making appointments for Jefferson, Monroe, Bradley and Hampstead counties.
 It is possible also that the appoint ments in some of the other counties, notably Poinsett, will be reconsidered, as strong pressure is being brought to bear upon the members of the board.
 In Monroe county, Senator Harris has asked to be heard in opposition to the recommendation made by the committee. Former Speaker R. F. Milwee, nominee for sheriff, has al- ready been heard favoring the ap- pointment of the regulars.
 In Jefferson county there is also a contest on, and the members of the board have not agreed among them selves. The state board has been inn portuned to name N. J. Can't as one of the Jefferson commissioners. Mir. Can't, who is president of the Arkan- sas Elks, as placed before the board by a petition signed by forty-one prominent citizens of Pine Bluff.
 Rumor here is that there will be friction within the ranks of Jefferson Democrats if the men recommended by the county central committee are appointed. These are: w. B. SOr- rells and John Shelby, Democrats, and
