Newspaper Special Coming
 to Brinkley

Mayor c. F. Greenlee has been notified that a special train with 15O Arkansas newspaper people aboard will visit Brinkley on May 11th. or 18th. for a short stop.
 The special train is furnished by the Cotton Bolt Ry and will! run from Hexarlkana over the entire system of tle Cotton Bela in Arkansas stopping at the lea d ing towns and cities along the line that the newspaper men may become better acquainted with their state.
 As soon as it is determined the exact time of the arrival of the specialin Brinkley, Mayor Green lee will probably call a meeting of citizens to plan for an appro- priate reception of the visitors.

Attention All Parties Need ing Lumber and Build. :
 < ing Supplies

All parties in the Hunter, Zent, Wheatley, Goodwin, K Keevil, Brinkley and Clarendon territory, should bear in mind that the largest lumber yard and building supply stock in this section of Eastern Arkansas is kept by the Mushrush Lumber Co.,, at Hunt CT. who are reaching out for and taking care of the trade in this section with the most advanta- geous prices and stock offerings. The Mushrush Company pro poses to save you dollars on every bill of material and the ARGUS takes a special pleasure in recommending them as an honest, reliable company.
 If you are needing building material it will pay you to write, call or phone the Mushrush Lumber Co. See their ad each week in the ARGUS.

be from what a stranger said to the writer a few weeks since as the possible cause for so much inattention on the part of the people here to the desirability of enhancing the beauty of the town; viz "that the people surely have sunk into inocuous desetude. or probably have a genuine case of ''locomotor ataxia," :" in other words it is nothing more nor less than down. right laziness pure and simple.
 Now I would call the attention of the city fathers to the condi- tion of our cemetery, which to say the least, is a disgrace to a country village, in it's present state; the old wire fence is rust ed and rotten as also is the posts and it is a question as to which holds the other up; in some places they hold each other down lon the ground); also what about the sidewalk that should be built from Hemlock St. north to the cemetery; are the property owners in that locality immune when it comes to putting down a concrete walk in front of their premises? Others have been compelled to do so. why not those referred to above? It would be we'll for the council to view the two small wooden bridges which are supposed to afford a safe transit across the ditches in the above pig path leading to the cemetery.
 l will not trespass on your time further Mir. Editor and will tender the above to the careful consideration of the Hon. Mayor and his august council, hoping that some remedy may be found for the very evident remissness on the part of their predecessors which has placed our town in tome instances in a position to sji Ec ~.itic;sed.~ CITIZEN.

 See the Shooting

The free exhibition of marks manship by the worlds champ ion crack shots, MT. and Mrs. Al Topperwein advertising rep resentatives of a big ammunition concern, drew to Brinkley on Tuesday afternoon. a large crowd of out of town visitors.
 The exhibition was in the open ground in East End and the many hundreds of local people together with the out of town visitors made the event resemble a real gala day.
 The shooting done by the Topperweins, was the most unique and remarkable ever seen in this city.

 Some two or three years ago the city purchased shade trees transplanting them in and about the public park, and when this was finished, it seems that "the powers that be- concluded that their work was finished, so per- mitted the trees to grow in any shape and at any angle that the elements might demand; not a pruning knife has there been used on them. not a broken limb taken off, nor a sprout cut off at the ground; on the contrary they have been allowed to grow or die q tshe case might be with out attention whatever.

Plunketts brother. Jones and
the Plunketts were old acquaint-

previously been spending some
time at Jones homestead.
They had come out from Spo-
kane that morning and from the
evidence at the trial had brought
quite a quantity Of liquor with
them. Charles Plunkett was
quarrelsome and had trouble with
Jones and with his brother dur

Sheriff Goes For
Clancy Suspect


Sheriff Cranschaw Of Tilla-
nook, Oregon, has forwarded the
photographs which he had taken
Of the man who he has under ar
rest, thought to be Fred Clancy,
wanted for the murder of Oscar
Olson, TO Sheriff Leaf and they
were received Saturday.
Leaf was not acquainted with
Clancy but the pictures were sub
nitted to a number of persons
who had seen Clancy. Some were
positive that the man was Clancy
while others thought not. They
all agreed that there is a strong
resemblance in the build, height
and the way he wears his hair,
but some were sure that the
features were not those of Clancy.
Henry Olson, Melville Roberts,
brother in law of Olson, and his
son were among those who did
not believe the pictures to be of
Clancy, although they all stated
that they bore a striking resem-
! blance and the description given
by Sheriff Cranschaw of the man
under arrest fits Clancy abso-
lutely, even to the scar on his
face and the injured finger.
After talking with the various
parties Sheriff Leaf decided to
take the photographs to Spokane
where there are several menswho
had known Clancy for years and
submit the photographs to them.
Il was his intention then, if the
photographs were identified as
,leing Clancy to go to Tillamook
and bring him hack. No word
has been received from Leaf
since he left here but it is known,
that he left Spokane Sunday for
Portland and it is presumed thas
he is convinced that the suspect
is Clancy and will bring him back.
The rain Sunday interfered
somewhat with logging opera
lions by softening the roads.

Jones To Serve
Ills Sentence
SUPREME COURT AFflRMS JUDGMENT
Was Convicted of ManSIaughtsr and Sentenced to
from Two to Ten Years

The supreme court has af-
ilrmed the judgment of Judge
Dunn in the district court for
this county in the case of II. C.
Jones, convicted of manslaugh-
ter and sentenced to serve from
two to ten years in the state peni-
tentiary at Boise. The judg-
ment was handed down Saturday
in an opinion written by Justice
William Morgan and concurred
in by his associates.
The points relied upon by the
defendant to obtain a reversal of
the Judgment and a new trial
were: First, that the jury had
been allowed to seperate; and
Second, that the court erred in
refusing to give certain instruc-
tions in regard to the law of self
defense asked for by the counsel
for the defendant.
In regard to the first point the
defendant submitted aflidavits on
the hearing for the motion for
the new trial and the state sub
mitted counter -anidavits of the
Jurors. The defense attacked
these afiidavits on the ground of
irregularity and that the officers
before whom they were taken did
mot have authority to administer
oaths under the conditions. The
lsupreme court held that the rul-
ing of the trial court will not be
disturbed in passing upon con-
hieting anidavits where the mis-
conduct of the jury is in ques-
ton, in support of and in opposi-
tion to a motion for a new trial.
In regard to the second prem
ises relied upon by the defend
ant for a reversal Of the judg-
ment, the court held that the tria
judge was substantially correc
in his instructions to the jur.
and there was no error in his re-
fusal to give the instruction.
