SMITH, Reuben - {from The Fayetteville Daily, Friday} Reuben Smith of Summers committed suicide at 10 o'clock this morning by shooting himself with a shot gun. The load passed through his heart and death was instantaneous. Smith was 55 years of age. He has been in poor health for some time. He must have contemplated the act from the fact that only this week he deeded his property to his wife. The deed was recorded yesterday. He was a well-to-do farmer and had considerable property. He has a daughter attending the University.

{from The Siloam Springs Daily Free Press} Rube Smith shot himself Friday at his home, six miles south of this city near Colony school house. Mr. Smith had moved to this section of the country from Fayetteville about five or six months ago, hoping to receive physical benefit from the healthful climate. He has suffered at times for the past six or seven years with rheumatism. Because of his infirmity he became despondent and took his life.
