BOOTLECC[R SELLS MAYOR SOME BOOZE AND FORCES HIM TO PAY Negro, Believed to be Wildcatter, In terrupts Conway Picnic Party on
 Cadron Creek.

How the mayor of Conway bought { quart of wildcat whiskey from ne gro bootlegger and how he was forced at the point of a gun to pay $5 fol the booze was the interesting story related by a party of Conway pic nickers on their return from Cadror creek at Gleason last night.
 The party, which consisted of Mayor w. D. Cole and family, Dr. and Mrs w. S. Hammer, MT. and Mrs. V. G Craig, Mr. and Mrs. Lillard Bolls, MT and Mrs. E. H. Coulter, Prof. M. J Russell and several others, had driven up to Gleason late in the afternoon to enjoy a bacon broil on the banks of the creek. Soon after their arrival a negro, evidently under the influence of some of his own product, came up and inquired if anyone wanted to buy some whiskey. This caused general laugh in the crowd, but Mayor Cole, having had an intimation that an il- licit still was in operation in that vicinity, took the negro seriously and told him he would buy some whiskey. The price of $5 for a quart was agreed upon and the negro went away, re- turning short time later. This time his suspicious were aroused and he refused to deliver the whiskey to any of the party, but threw the bottle in the weeds nearby and left again. The bottle was soon discovered and con- fiscated
 A few minutes later the negro again returned armed with a gun, and de- manded pay for the whiskey. Stand ing off some distance in the darkness he directed that the rest of the party remain where they were and one of them come forward and pay him. Realizing that in his drunken condi- tion the negro was liable to fire into the party if trifled with and none of the picnickers having a weapon, Mayor Cole advanced and obeyedd the negro's instructions to lay the money on a mail box as directed. The bootlegger then disappeared in the darkness. The Whiskey was brought to town and turned over to the sheriff.
 Mayor Cole and other members of the party have a perfect description of the negro, who is known to reside in the vicinity of Gleason. He is said to have gone under several different names and has been under suspicion of officers as a moonshiner for some time. He is said to live across the creek, which is the county line, in Conway county.
 A party of local officers were plan ming to leave here early this morn ing to arrest the negro and locate if possible the source of his booze SUD- ply, but the heavy rain caused them to postpone their trip.
