TERRIBLE BUTCHERY.
Man and Five Children Found Murdered
in Arkansas.

Little Rock, Oct 5.-Great excite
ment prevails at DevalPs Bluff over
the discovery OF what is believed to be
the bloodiest tragedy in the history of
Prairie county. Bud Chaffin and his
five children are believed to have been
murdered and suspicion points to Mrs.
Chaffin and John King, her paramour,
as the murderers.
Chaffin with his wife and five chill
dren lived on White river, between Des
Arc and Devalrs Bluff. John King, a
hired man, lived with the family and
is said to have alenated the Chaffin
woman's affections from her husband.
Neither King or any of the Chaffins
have been seen since Sept. 81. on
that date King was seen driving away
in a wagon in company with Mrs
Chaffin. AS they did not return and
nothing was seen of the other members
OF the family the neighbors began an
investigation. Then the house I'm which
the Chaffins had lived was opened,
blood was found spattered all over the
floor and there were evidences of a ter
rible butchery having been committed.
No bodies were found. The theory of
the officers Is that the bodies were
thrown into the river. Every effort Is
being made to locate King and Mrs.
Chaffin.

New York, Oct. 5.-The funeral Of
Manager Walter l.. Sim OF the Mon

to suffocation. Only on one other occa-

The body of the church was occupied
by two Communicates Of Knights Tenn

Brooklyn lodge of Elks and the Theatri-
cal Mechanics association. 1t was a
gathering such as has probably never
before assembled to pay tribute TO the
memory of a member of the theatrical
profession. All the prominent men,
bers OF the profession in New York
and Brooklyn were present.
At the conclusion of the services
pretty and pathetic incident occurred.
Colonel Sim took the arm OF his wife,
from whom he has been divorced a
number of years, and leaned over the
casket She looked at the face of her
son and then up TO that of her hus-
band. There seemed to be an under
standing in the look. He placed his
arm in hers and led her down the
aisle, following the casket There was
scarcely a dry eye in the large church.
