But itis not to be wondered at, a strapping able bodied man who has the least bit of shame left in him must feel a little bad when he thinks of the methods and the affidavits he made to inflict himself on government charity.—Holden Enterprise.

C.B McFarland and family who have been visiting relatives the past two or three months near Columbus, Ohio, returned home last week. They report a pleasant time. The cattle which J. M.

Vacation, with its unrestrained freedom for the boys—its fear. Sc Wm. Perkins, who shot and killed Henry Collins, near Lowry City, this county, on the 12th of July last, has at last been captured and is now be- ind the bars in the Henry county jail. The arrest was made near Pow- hattan, Lawrence county, Arkansas, on Wednesday, Aug. 14th, by Frank C. Stewart, a prominent citizen and a brother of the deputy sheriff of that county. Perkins was brought to Osceola \on Friday and delivered to our ef- ficient sheriff S. T. Scott, who con- jfined him in the jail at this place until the following day when he was transferred to the Henry county jail for safe keeping to await his prelim- inary hearing which, we understand, will be held the latter part of this ‘or the first of next week. At the time of Perkins’ arrest he |was stopping with hisnephew, John Proctor, in Arkanses, and Perkins is of the opinion that a letter which had been written by Proctorto some of his relatives in the county had been intercepted which led to his capture. When arrested Perkins had started from the house, where he was stop- ping, to the woods for the purpose of making a couple of ox yokes.

The office of sheriff is a very important one, and should be in the care and custody of an impartial and unprejudiced citi- zen, who has no friends to favor and no enemies to get even with; no po- litical sores to heal or reopen.

Arrested for Murder. Sheriff Ewin came down from But- ter to-day and placed under arrest John Sanders (colored) charged with killing a brother miner in the Keith & Perry camp north of this city, about two years ago. It seems that the shooting affray in which Sanders used his pistol did not prove fatal at the time, the victim going to Ft. Smith, Ark., where he afterward died.

A committee reached Denver to- day from the easteru part of Arapa- hoe county, Colorado sent by the settlers of that district in quest of aid; but settlers in western Kansas which comprises a much larger area, and where not even vegetable have grown the past year, will no doubt have to call upon the east for assist- ance besore the winter blasts are over.
