Label in His Hat Causes Arrest of
 Alleged FOrger

When Fla Tilar, negro, obtained a Stetson hat and about $40 in cash from the J. B. Duncan store at Eng land on nalleged forged check for $50. he omitted to deface the label in the hat before wearing it.

Mr Baldwin later in the day turned Tilar over to the Lonoke county sheriff.
 Tilar salleged to have first cash ed at Altheimer a check for S145.70, and, encouraged by his success. to have gone over to England and ne- gotiated the $150 order Roth orders were made payable to Willie Brown, and purported to bear the signatude of w. R. Payne, according to the officials.

Greater Pine Bluff Dinner Will Be Held
 on Monday Evening

An is in readiness for the Great CT Pine Bluff" dinner and meeting tomorrow night at 6:30 o'clock at the Hotel Pines. The attendance is expected to be almost double the largest ,1umber of guests that ever assembled under the auspices of the Chamber of Commerce.
 The program had been completed and with Congressman James T. Begg of Ohio, for the main address. it appears to be most satisfactory one The local speakers will be J. F. Mcintyre. chairman of the cam paign; R. Carnahan, Rev. l.. J. Rothstein, and William r. Coleman.
 The musical program in addition to the music bv the orchestra will con sist of solo by Mrs. J. W. Smith, quartette numbers by mixed quar- tette consisting of the Misses Ernes- tine and Eunice Norris, Ray West and Dolph Kastor. MT. Kastor will also sing a solo. Prof. M. D. McNeil will lead the community singing. A song sheet with the choruses of popular songs will be at each plate.
 The musical numbers will be given during the dining hour. The addresses by local men will be limited to five and 10 minutes. The schedule calls for adjournment at 9:3O o'clock.
 Congressman Begg, the main speaker. is strongly recommended as an ideal speaker for an occasion of this kind. He has spoken at over one hundred Chamber of Commerce banquets in almost the same number of cities.
 The number of tickets sold could not be determined last night because many of the men selling tickets had not reported. Tickets will be sold Monday until the reservations are all taken. Manager Trulock will not be able to increase the number of re- servations, he has notified the dinner committee.
