 HOGS AT BATESVILLE
Sunkist Auction Sale Will Be Held on Monday, Sep-
 tember ), at 1::30

Herbert Benson announces that the second annual sale of pedigreed pure-bred Poland Chinas will be held in the Hardy Sale Barn at Bates vile on Monday September 5.
 This is the second annual event of this kind staged by the Sunkist farm, and is also the second auction sale of |pure-bred live stock ever held in Independence county. The S6nkist sale last fall was the first time a herd of pure bred hogs were ever offered at public auction in this county.
 Last year nearly all animals in the sale brougth good prices, many going to buyers in other states than Arkansas. Several were were sold to farmers in this community, and all purchasers were greatly pleased with the class of animals raised on the Suns kist farm.
 The offering this year will consist of 40 head, and will carry some of the most prom inent blood lines of the Poland China breed, embodying some of as high class animals as will be found on any of the large hog farms in the corn belt.
 MT. Benson says this is the farmers opportunity for buying pure bred hogs while they are at roek-bottom prices.

SCHOOL POPULATION
 SHOWS AN INCREASE

Independence county shows an increase of 1882 children of school age in the last year. The annual enumeration last year showed that there were 8,631 children in the county. This year it totaled 9013, as reported to the county sup erintendent by the directors of the 100 school districts. This means that our respon- abilities are greater; that more teachers are to be en- ployed, and an increase in ex- pepse for taking care of these boys and girls.
 Out of the 9,013 boys and girls enumerated, the reports showed an enrolment of 6997 with an average attendance of 1850. This is alarming and at the same time a surprise to many of us to know that there are in the county 3663 boys and girls who do not at tend school regularly. Some of these however are married and a small per cent tran sient.
 It seems that some effort should be made to get our boys and girls in school. The schools are for them; it costs no more to attend than it does not to attend, probably the expense of a few books would be the only added ex- pense. Let us as parents and citizens of one of the best counties in the state see that our schools are better attend ed, our children are entitled to those privileges, and should be kept in school.

SON OF LAKE CITY'S
 MAYOR 5 MURDERED
Was One of 2 Children and Ex-Army Man-Slayer in
 Turn is Shot Down

Jonesboro, Aug. 15.-Zack Crumby, who killed Jim Cook after Cook had slain Pete Walker on Rush Island, three miles from Lake City today and was exonerated.
 Cook was hauling Walkers dead body to Lake City when Crumby met him on Mile Long bridge. Cook threaten ed to kill him and Crumby fired the fatal shot with a double -barreled sh o,t gun, which he had borrowed after being chased away from Cooks home.
 Crumby had been across the mainland to get someone to notify a La ke City officer of Walkers murder, and had not expected to meet Cook on the bridge. Cook was on the way to Lake City to accuse Crumby of Walkers killing, it is said, which theo- ry was substantiated by the finding of Cooks murder gum hidden in the loft of Cooks house.
 Mrs. Cook and two children witnessed the murder of Walker. White muleo whis- key was the cause of the double tragedy. The smell of liquor was strong on the dead bodies of both men and also on the breath of Crumby. Walker and Crumby were em- ployees of Cooks shingle mill. Walker served through the World war, being in the bat ties of Chateau Thierry and the Argonne Forest, and was wounded. He was the son of Mayor John Walker of Lake City and one of p children.

TWO NEGROES ARE
 SHOT FROM AMBUSH
Waylaid by Black Who Said he Was Shooting at An
 other Negro

~@N Nh-
 Fields and John Franklin, negroes, each about 35 years old, were shot from ambush two miles north of Olyphant, near Nuckoll's switch, this morning about 9 o'clock by Claude Brown, another negro, who was arrested and brought to Newport and placed in jail at 1 o'clock this afternoon. The wounded negroes were brought to Newport on north bound passenger train No. 30 and removed to the office of Dr. l.. |. Watson, where med ical treatment was admins tered. They were taken to Little Rock this afternoon on No. } to the railroad hospital. The negroes were shot sever- al times with a Winchester shotgun, and it took Dr. Wat son and Dr. Walker Stallings several hours to remove the shot. Both negroes are bad- ly wounded. Shot were sprinkled nearly all over their bodies and their faces. It
 was difficult for physicians to
 determine how serious their condition is, though it is be-
 lieved they will recover.
 Franklin and Fields, mem.
 bers of the Missouri Pacific
 railroad section gang at Oly.
 phant, were cutting weeds from the right of way witt several other negroes wher they were shot.
 Sheriff Hays and his depu- ties went to 0lyphant on the local switch engine. Blood hounds were secured from Kensett, and while the sheriff was waiting for the dogs to arrive he arrested Brown and another negro named Mike Williams, who was car rying a revolver. Williams was brought here and placed in jail. Lucius Brown, broth CT of Claude Brown, was ar rested when 1t was learned that he had trouble with one of the wounded men.
 Claude Brown admits doing the shooting from ambush, the officers say, but said he was shooting at Mike Will Hams, who drew a gun on him last night, he said. His aim was poor and the charges from his pun struck the wrong men, he said. After the shooting the wounded men were hauled to the Oly- phant depot. Brown walked up with his shotgun. Ed Bailey, negro, who had a shotgun, made Brown drop his weapon. Brown made a move to attack the wounded negroes with his fists as they lay in the wagon, it was said, but was struck over the head With a gun by another negro.
 The wounded negroes have good regulations. Each de- clared he did not know why Brown should shoot him, and expressed the belief that Brown was shooting at Mike Williams with whom Brown had trouble last night. Claude Brown bears a bad reputa- tion. He. was arrested for forging a check at the Arkan- sas Bank & Trust Company for $20 using the name of Deck T,indsav.
