Young Girl Killed.

Miss Williams, about Is years
of age was shot and instantly kill
ed while in bed asleep at her home
in Paden, last Sunday night. The
killing took place between IL and
70 o'clock. About 3 O'Clock Mon
day morning Sheriff Woodley,
Officer Erwin and Mr. Jim Bayless
took Mr. Erwin's blood hounds and
went to the Williams house. The
dogs Immediately took the trail
and followed it to the home OF
Mrs Dan Medley, near by. The
officers, wien they tried to enter
the house, were told by Mrs. Med
lev that she was alone, but on en-
tering they found a Mr. Fowler.
Messrs Will Rogers, Frank White
and Hose White have been arrest
ed in connection with the killing.
They are in Jail here and will have
a preliminary trial to-day.
Several shots were fired at the
Williams house by the party or
parties who killed Miss Williams,
their object it is supposed, being
to scare someone they thought
was in there, in order to see him
run.
Anyone who has no better
sense than to shoot through a
house for this or any other pur-
pose is too criminally ignorant to
be allowed to run at large and
should he corfred for the protec.
ton of the general pubic.

WHITMAN BLOCKS
 DARCY DILLON BOUT Empire State Executive Calls Australian a "Slacker''

New York. March 3.-Governor Whitman's' announcement yesterday that he had positively forbid den the proposed ten-round bout next Monday night at Madison Square Gar den between Les Darcy, of Australia, struck promoters. principals and fight fans like thunderbolt. Grant Hugh Browne. lessee of the Garden and the man who was to have staged the big bout, was stunned.
 MT. Browne gained some little satis- faction later when he arranged for Jim Flynn to substitute for Darcy.
 MT. Browne has been wearing the latest model shock absorbers ever since his troubles in the realms Of pugilism began to mount up day by day, but the governors ultimatum hit him in a vital spot and he was tenn porarily "out'' for long count. Just before 'ten'' could be counted over him, however, the squire of Brown leigh Park rose to his knees and made this statement:
 ..I have been told that the governor acted on information that Les Darcy and Jack Dillon were to fight ten rounds to a finish or a knockout. Of course. that is not so. l am also tn- formed that the governor states that Darcy is a stacker and should not be permitted to make big money in this country, when his fellow country men are being maimed in the trenches. I hope to explain to MT. Whitman that Darcy not only was under age when he left his home, but several times attempted to enlist and was prevented by his mother, whose consent was absolutely essential
