'0R DAY FUND

 -Everyt)n Will Be Success. 1t cost ar ,any. ~p

The committee of union men solicit ing fundssto finance the celebration o1 Labor day, made exceptional progress yesterday, and late in the afternoon the fund was within small amount necessary to assure the success of the affair.
 It is probable that the committed will have the required amount sub- scribed today. Immediately after the committee has completed it's work the program committee will hold a meeting and prepare the general pro- gram of events. They will also begin an extensive advertising campaign ill the nearby towns.
 It is expected that both the Iron Mountain and Cotton Belt railroads will assist the committee in advertis- ing, and will probably make special rates on the roads on Labor day as an inducement to out-of-town people Mayor Bloom has received communi- cations from the Iron Mountain com mercial agent stating that the matter of advertising the celebration has been referred to the passenger department and from Commercial Agent s. M Dickey of the Cotton Belt, who states that the matter of advertising by that road has been turned over to E. w. La Beaume, general passenger and ticket agent.
 A commmittee from the labor or ganizations will send out general in vitations to all the merchants and fraternal organizations, and reqaest them to enter floats in the parade which will be one of the big features of the event.

"Tobe" Lindsey, Farmer of 54, Shoots A. Benedict,
 Aged 26.
PLEADS SELF-DEFENSE
Lindsey Was Administering to Sick Friend, He Says, When Benedict Fired Upon Him From Shelter
 of Mule.

l.. E. "Tobe" Lindsey, 54 years old, shot and instantly killed A. Benedict, 26 years old, Sunday afternoon, short ly after o'clock at Tomberlain, a station several miles west of Tucker. Lindsey was brought to the city yes terday and committed to the county jail by Justice Game Meyer on the charge of first degree murder. He will be given preliminary hearing this afternoon. The only eyewitness to the tragedy was Jim Leath, farmer.
 Shortly after the affray, Lindsey called up officers at Altheimer, and Deputy Constable John Bryson, R. D. Garrett and Dr. Wright went to the scene and placed him under ar rest. Lindsey returned to Altheimer with them where he remained for the night and was brought to Pine Bluff early yesterday morning.
 The men are said to have been al a store where they were drinking hard cider during the afternoon. Af- ter several heated words between the two men, Benedict is sai dto have picked up a two by four piece oi timber and hit Lindsey over the head with it. In trying to dodge the lick he received deep cut on the arm an da slight gash on the side of the head. By-standers then made the men shake hands and both went off, ap. parently friends.
 According to Lindsey, he then went home preparatory to going to see 2 sick friend. Before leaving the house however, he secured his pistol. While he was in the act of flaming his friend he says Benedict opened fire from be- hind Lindsey's mule. He immediatel, jumped to his feet, secured his gun which was lying on chair and firet at Benedict. He shot four times, bu only two took effect.
 Lindsey is married and has severa children. Benedict is said to have re gently located at Tomberlain, comins from Texas.

DEFINES WHAT
 IS A CHRISTIAN
Rev. Bulkley Praises Fra ternal Orders for Char
 itable Work.

Taking as his subject What Is Christian?" and speaking before d large crowd at the Lakeside Metho- dist church last evening, the Rev: Bulkley, who is conducting a reival meeting there this week, told ms audience that the lodges have super seded the churches in doing charlta- ble work. He paid the Order of Elks a fine compliment for the charity dls- pensed by them, and especially at Christmas time, when, when they gladden. the hearts of the poor child ren with a Christmas tree.
 He said that the lodges of today are doing a very charitable work, and this fact alone, he said, has put them on the high standard in which they are held by their members. By talk ing this from the church, he said, the church can better teach the word of God to it's members and assist the lodges. Many people are of the opin. ion that they are Christians because they live in a Christian country. This he said, should be removed from their minds, and they should live like the Christians in the Christian commun- ity.
 A Christian, said Rev. Bulkley, is man who lived Christian life, and profited by the word of God. Man is made up of three natures, animal, hu' man and spiritual. Man was born with the first two, he said, but was forced to achieve the third, and it was to teach man the spiritual that Christ died.
 A feature of the meetings is the fine music of the choir and the trom bone playing of Mir. Buckley.

Indiana Farmer Comes to Town with

Connersville, Ind, July H.-A half dozen blacksnakes transfixed with a four-pronged pitchfork left Hosea Long of Orange township in a class by himself among local snake killers for the season.

 The largest snake was five feet three inches long. The combine ] length of the six reptiles was twenty three feet.
