A Cut in the Price of Bread.

WOOSTER, o., March 10.-Bread is
selling here at present at cents per loaf,
and the prospects are that it will be
down to cents before long. The
loaves are the same size that have
heretofore sold at cents. The cause
of the reduction is war that
is being waged by the local bakers
against the bread that is being handled
by grocers, which is baked in Akron and
Cleveland The fight is liable to last
some time, as the bread shipped in is
from concerns that have plenty of
money. The dealers handling their
bread have orders to meet all cuts made
bv the local bakers.

their arrest for the killing of the Kines

the same fate as the prisoners, 'Heflin

His Greed for Gold.

There was report in the neighbor-
hood that Mrs. Kines had money in the
house, and Heflin, after making himself
acquainted with the surroundings of her
secluded cottage and ascertaining that
no one except the widow and her young
children was likely to be in the house or
its neighborhood, he went to her house
on the evening of Nov. IS and told the
widow that he wanted some money.
i've got no money!" she said
"Tl see what's here, he responded,
and, suiting the action to the word, he
soughtto open trunk. She leaped upon
him and, with all her strength, pulled
him away from the trunk and he rolled
to the floor, while the children began TO
scream. 1t was the work of an instant
to seize billet of wood and break the
skull of Mrs. Kines, telling her to the
floor. Her blood spattered the scream.
ing children and the oldest started to
run. The next blow of the bloody
bludgeon fell on the oldest child, who
was seized and murdered, and then the
two younger ones were beaten to death.

The viIIainous Murderer Confcsses.

According to his confession Heflin
visited the house about s o'clock on the
evening before the burning of the house
and inmates and knocked ON the door.
Mrs. Kines answered the call and he
asked her for some money, but she told
him that she had none. Hefin went
in the house and on the hearth in front
of the fireplace he noticed a stick Of
wood with rough knot upon it. He
picked up the heavy instrument and
with one blow on the head he felled her
to the floor. The one blow proved fatal.
Turning he saw the 3-year-old child in
bed, and turning over the innocent one,
he dealt the boy a blow on the back of
the neck, killing him. Then he took the
other two children and killed them.
After killing the fourth one he secured
what money he could find, between $25
and $75 and buried it in the county near
fence. The next morning he returned
to the house, saturated the place with
coal oil, and set fire to it. Hefin told
the detective that he wanted the money
because he was going to elope with the
wife and daughter of countryman
who lives not far from the scene of the
terrible crime. He was young white
man, % years old, and was born in the
upper part of Stafford county, near
Providence church, not more than thirty
miles from the scene of the murder, and
his parents still reside there. From his
statements it appeared that he had been
out of place and when he reached the
neighborhood of Calverton, Fauquier
county, he went to work as a farm la
borer for Mr.. Dye, whose farm adjoined
that of Mrs. Kines, who had son
abroad at work and three small children
at home.

History of the Crime.

The crime was the most atrocious one
ever committed in the vicinity of War
renton, If not in the entire state, and
Lee Helm, in his last confession, took
the responsibility of it upon himself.
The victims were Mrs. Kines, a widow,
and her three children, boy years
old and two girls and II years. The
first known of the crime was the morn
ing after 1t was committed. Mrs. Kines
and two of the children were burned TO
ashes, but the body of the remaining
child was recovered before it had been
reached by the flames.
Lee Hetlin, who lived at the house of
Joseph Dye, was the first one to spread
the alarm, and after doing it he failed to
return to the house to lend any assist
ance. This was thought to be queer
conduct on his part, but when Ques-
toned about his actions he cody an
swered: VI am afraid of fire."
The finding of the one body before il
had been charTed and the discovery that
a blow on the head or neck had caused
death was sufficient evidence that q
crime had been committed, and the
smell Of coal oil in the burning timbers
strengthened the theory that the whole
family had been murdered and the house
set on fire. After Heflin's arrest he inn
plicated Joseph Dye and his family, and
for that reason Dye was also placed un-
der arrest. Detective Dustin was placed
in the cell with Hefin and the latter
looked upon him as prisoner. Hefin's
vague story of the crime implicated Dye
and afterward the move was made to
lynch the trio. They We're in the Jail at
Calverton, and fearing the jailer would
be overpowered and his prisoners taken,
they left the Jail Thursday afternoon
and drove fifty miles in a wagon, spend
ing the night in the woods. On the way
to Alexandria Hefiin made full confes-
sion of the crime, exonorating Dye.
