To sit quietly in the midst of the

times he would sit for an hour or two

the side of his palace with a stick. AS

COLONEL STROUPE
 FOR GOVERNOR
Endorsed by Many
 Soldier Boys
PARIS, ARKANSAS,
 June IS, 1920.

We are calling on our late com rades in arms to support our comrade, Colonel Henry Stroupe, in his race for the Democratic nomination for Gov ernor of Arkansas.
 Colonel Stroupe is a native of Ar kansas, born in our neighboring coun- ty, and has spent his entire life among us. Many of us have known him all our lives, as did our fathers and moth CTS before us. He has always been a true friend of every good cause and worthy person, and has possibly help ed more young men and women to ac- quire an education of any other man of his means ip the State.
 Colonel Stroupe has always been a loyal and patriotic citizen, working for the best interests of his country in time of peace, and promptly re- sponded to her call in time of war.
 Colonel Stroupe was captain of Go. 'K" for the First Arkansas Volunteers in the Spanish-American war. He was an active member of the Arkansas National Guard from 1903 to 1915, and in 1918 he was colonel command ing the Second Arkansas Infantry on the Mexican border, and when war was declared on Germany, was placed in command of the Arkansas troops at Fort Logan H. Roots during the time of their mobilization, equipment and training, and became colonel of the 142nd Field Artillery U. s. A., into which the Second Arkansas was con- yerted.
 l Knowing Colonel Stroupe's life, character and career, we know him 1 to be in every way worthy of the vote and support of our comrades, and, be- 1 lieving that he will make Governor that will reflect credit on our State and will be blessing to her people. we gladly commend him to our com rades and good people of our great State.

PLEAD GUILTY TO
GRAND LARCENY
Albert Scllizl and p. L. Mcintosh, Of
Ari0n and Dunlap, Brought Here,
Charged With Grand Larceny
CONFESSED TO STEALING HOGS
Take Nine Head of Hogs From the l..
f. Wright Farm Near Dunlap-Tried
Before Justice Blieslnan

Albert Schilz, age 10, of Arion, and
P. L. Mcintosh, age 90, of Dunlap.
We're, arrested last Thursday, charged
with grand larceny and lodged in the
county Jail. The young men We're
given a hearing before Justice H. T.
Bliesman on Friday and both pleaded
guilty to the charge and We're bound
over to await the action of the grand
Jury which meets January Goth. Both
young men were given their liberty
each furnishing a satisfactory bond of
S2,500.00 for their appearance.
The crime confessed to by Schilz
and Mcintosh is the stealing of nine
hogs from the farm Of l.. f. Wright
just north OF Dunlap some two weeks
ago. When the theft was reported by
Mr. Wright, Sheriff a. G. Greene and
deputy Jacob Johnson Immediately
made investigation and within a week
had several clues which led them to be-
lieve that Schilz and Mcintosh were i'm
plicated. They found hogs answering
to the description of those stolen. from
Wright in a pen at Arion belonging to
the butcher shop there. The butcher
was questioned and he stated that he
had purchased nine hogs from Schilz
and had butchered three Of them.
Greene and Johnson lost no time in
following other clues and on last Thurs
day arrested both of the young men.
When first brought to Denison they
disclaimed any guilt but when con
fronted with the evidence they decided
to plead guilty to the charge.
Sheriff Greene informs us that the
young men were quite clever in the
robbery. They drove to a neighbor
of Wright's with q sled and there took
another sled leaving their own in the
yard. With the neighbours sled they
drove to the Wright farm backing it
up to the hog house, unhitching the
team and taking it down the road
distance. The nine hogs were then
loaded, the team brought up and back
to the neighhors where they reloaded
the hogs in their own sled and hauled
the hogs to Arion. In disposing of the
hogs several checks We're drawn which
easily would confuse the true. owner
ship of the hogs.
