Ur T WT D^II. /-M
mi. x. tt. uciiv. ui v^ueraw,
sends The Journal clippings
from the Chronicle-News of
rrinidad, Col. which give the
details of the recent acquittal of
his brother, Mr. Walter Belk, of
the charges of murder and assault
with intent to kill. In one
case the State offered to dismiss
the case but the defendant insisted
that he be given a trial by
jury. In open court the judge
instructed the jury to return a
verdict of acquittal. In the
other case the State put up a
stiff fight but the evidence produced
for the defendant was so
conclusive that the jury was out
only about seven minutes, re
turning: a verdict of acquittal.
There was a demonstration of
approval as court ad;odrned,~inff
the papers speak in the highest
terms of Mr. Belk as a man and
officer. There were two charges
of murder and one of assault
and battery with intent to kill
and he was acquitted in all The
:ases. The trouble occurred in
1913, and the evidence showed
ihat the deeds were done in self
lefense. Mr. Belk is a native
af Union county, and he and
lis wife are known in this county,
where they taught school
several years ago. Their friends
will doubtless be pleased to
enow of Mr. Belk's acquittal.
^tere is one sentence from the
Chronicle-News: "Big hearted
Walter Belk has been acquitted
is the good citizens of Trinidad
cnew he would be and thought
le ought to be."

V ; Bill
Smith's Way
I dont think much of Bill
Smith's way; he never 6ells a
bale of hay. He even keeps his
cottonseed. Now I find shucks
is cheaper feed. Bill stuffs his
cows on good corn meal; if
mine get corn they have to steal.
He paid a hundred for a calf;
the things folks do would make
you laugh. I wish some one
would tell me, please, what good
Bill gets from sowing peas. He's
always messing with manure,
while I find fertilizer's surer. To
hunt and fish Bill has no time;
he's busy putting out more lime.
Burning off don't do no harm,
and I have lived on many a
farm. The county agent can
talk and snort, you can't keep
land from wearing out. Bill's
boys get ten bucks for a pig; for
folks that have to sweat and dig,
there's some can surely play the
fool; no sir, my boys don't go to
school. What? Out of meat
and flour low? Then to the
store I'll have to go. Theie ain't
a bank will take mv note, old
Wilson'll never get my vote.
The whole administration's rotten;
we'll all just have to plant
more cotton ?Carl Hammer in

What Boys Think of Girls.
Asked to write a composition
on "What Bovs Thinks of Girls."
a lad unburdened his mind in
this wise.
"Girls are much stuck up and
dignified in their manner and
behavior. They think more of
dress than anything, and like to
play with dolls and rags. Thev
cry if they see a cow in a far
distance, and are afraid of guns.
They stay at home all the time,
I and go to church every Sunday.
They are alwavs sick. They
are always funny and making
fun of boy's hands, and say how
dirtv. They can't play marbles
I pity them poor things. They
make fun of boys and then turn
round and love them. I don't
believe they ever killed a cat or
anything. They Icok out every
night and say, * Oh, ain't the
moon lovel y."__There^ Js__ ime
tfttflg I have hot told and that
is, they always .know their lessons
bettern boys."
