Snyder is the best cotton mar-

her shipping facilities, good gins
and large cotton compress, and

the town’s business increases
which shows that she is gaining
in favor among the farmers.
Important Capture.
Last January at Birmingham,
Alabama, a woman was killed by
Tom Shelton. Shelton made his
escaped before arrest and
since been hunted for.
some manner the Alabama —
ficials secured information which t.vjj.i - — - — - — — - — —--------—----— — - \w/
!nd KiowI° county ‘ani ^heri^ ^ XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Ray’s office conferred with. I —
The result of this conference
was the arrest of the man a few
miles southwest of Snyder at the
home of P. S. Murphy, where he
has been working since last
spring. He has been passing
under the name of Tom Phillips,
and has been hauling cotton to
Snyder every week during this
season. i*LN
Tuesday morning Deputy Sher- j jOk
iff Carl Gordon, accompanied by
Town Marshal J. W. Morris drove Cji
out to the Murphy farm, expect-
ing to arrive before the family
were up. Though they arrived
before daylight the family were
up and Mr. Murphy was in the
act of paying Shelton off, so that
he might leave, when the officers
walked in on them and soon had
the drop on Shelton. They
caught him without his gun or
they probably would have had
trouble in getting him, as he is
said to be handy with a gun and
of a desperate character. Only a
few days ago he had made threats
to kill a negro who owed him if
the darkey didn’t pay him, and
finally collected the 50 cents at, A
the point of his gun. The officers JkR
brought him to town and took 5-3!
him to Hobart to await the arrival
of the Alabama officers.
Nothing is known here of the
circumstances of the Alabama
killing. Shelton himself does
not deny the killing but claims
that it was accidental. He claims
the woman was a disreputable
one.
After arrest he told the officers
something had impressed him
that it was time to move on,
and that was the reason why
Murphy was paying him off. He
expected to get an early start for
some other locality and if they
had been a few minutes later they
would not have found him.

urge you to accept the inviting hospitality of the open door that leads to our
large and very complete assortment of beautiful new Holiday goods, perfectly
adapted to the wants of warm-hearted gift makers. We are offering the ad-
vantages of all tliat i9 attractive and new in Christmas gifts, that your taste

For weeks past we have labored industriously to prepare for the holiday trade and our JOJ
kDk store is now fairly shining with a beautiful array of Christmas gifts. Special pains and JO*
much careful consideration was expended to make the collection of Christmas goods one QjQ
kja which should include something really desirable for every individual from the youngest to - ^
the oldest. We have made it a point, to have a great variety in goods of all prices, ranging gag
from the merest trifle upwards, in order that you may make good selections at any price ^ «
you feel able to pay. Having thus smoothed the way and opened the door for all classes of
buyers, by grading and assorting our stock in such a way as to meet the needs of those Kga
who have little, as well as those who have, much to spend, and having marked all our goods W. ■
at the lowest possible figure, we feel that we deserve your patronage.
Hoping to see every reader at our store at an early date and extending to one and all »0«
the compliments and good wishes of the season, wo remain, Very truly yours,
