Study Your Dress.

Girls ought to study harmony in
dressing. The hair fluffed out over the
ears is very becoming, but that style is
not correct with a sailor hat. II makes
the face looks ridiculous. Moreover,
nautical headgear should not be orna-
mented with flowers, feathers or rhine.

ties in dress, l saw a woman in Fourth

she missed the point by wearing a pair

TRAGEDY IN ARKANSAS.
The BIoodieSt Crime Which Has Ever
Occurred i'm That State.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 3.-Startling news
has been telegraphed here about what
appears to be the bloodiest tragedy ever
occurring in Arkansas. The scene of
the supposed crime is at Devalls Bluft,
Ark. Living there for some years past
was a prominent farmer named Bud
Chaffin. He was married and had five
children. Some months ago a man
named John King applied to him tnr
work Chaffin liked the looks of King
and promptly hired him. 1t was not
long. however before 1t was noticed by
the neighbors that King and Mrs Chat
fin appeared to be more friendly than
due respect to proprieties would admit
of. King seemed to be in her company
all the time.
It is believed that the husband sus-
pected this and ordered King to leave
the farm.
Since September Dist Chaffin and his
wife, the FIVE children and King have
been missing The neighbors thought
nothing was wrong at first, but when
the days rolled by and no news was
heard of the absent people 1t was de-
cided to make an investigation.
A searching party was organized and
thorough search of the premises was
made. To the horror Of the neighbors,
blood was found spattered over the
floors and walls of the building
No bodies, however, were found. It IS
now believed that King and Mrs. Chat
fin killed Chaffin and the children and
then eloped.
