Heinous Crime Occurred Near Little
Town Of Wauchula-After All Had

The little farming community Of
Wauchula, in Polk county, Fla, was
plunged into excitement Thursday
morning by the discovery of crime
eQualing in horror that tragedy at
Statesboro Ga, last year.
The home Of John Kirby, farmer,
who moved to that locality last Octo-
Der fromBlount county, Alabama, was
found in ashes, and in the shoulder.
ing ruins were found the bodies OF
Kirby, his wife and four children,
ranging in age from boy of IL to
an infant of one year.
The whole neighborhood soon reach
ed the scene and an investigation was
made, which resulted In inevitable
conclusion that the entire family had
been murdered and torch applied to
the dwelling.
A hammer was the only weapon
found in the ruin, which could have
inflicted the wounds. The coroner'a
jury was empaneled and, after max.
ing examination Of the premises, rem.
dered the verdict that the family
came to their death "by fire or some
other means unknown"
While many theories are entertain
ed regarding the crime, no traces of
the perpetrators can be found. Some
believe other members of the family
were murdered in bed by bling knock.

MONEY STOLEN FROM TRUNKS.

$1,400 was stolen from prominent
citizen of Abbeville, Ga, few days
ago. He had collected the money, and
instead of putting the same in bank,
ne carried it home and put it in his
trunk. The hinges were taken off
his trunk while he was up town and
the money was stolen.
A merchant in our town had $175,
which he intended paying out on Mon
day morning. On Saturday night he
left the money in his trunk and ran to
the warehouse to help saY3 a bale Of
cotton that was burning. Some one
picked the lock and when he returned
the money was gone and has never
been recovered.
So many people in the country make
this same fearful mistake.
The safest and most reliable place
to keep your money is to deposit the
same in your home bank, where you
can always get it when you want it.

ties have the situation under control
and the day passed quietly. In the
former city some men have returned
to work. Advices from st. Petersburg
are to the effect that the authorities
regard the danger Of a general tie-up
of Russian industries as past and as
sert that the attempt to convert the
movement into a political revolt sas
failed.
The governments promise Of short

movement is again sinking beneath

it will break out only the future can

treat the workmen whose aspirations

and are appealing to their patriot
ism, by pointing out the benefit which
will accrue to the Japanese by a sus-
pension Of work at the arsenals, dock
yards etc.
On the other hand, the authorities
are putting down the reyolutionists
with stern hand. The latter have
again been forced to cover, meetings
being almost impossible. Many for

that the acute stage is past and some

With the unanimous adoption of the
plan reported by its committee for a
permanent organization, headed by
Harvie Jordan of Georgia as presi-
dent and F.. S. Peters Of Texas as
vice president, the Southern Interstate
Cotton convention finally closed it's
successful three days session at New

The feature of the forenoon session
was the defeat of the modified Waco
warehouse plan, which had been re-
ported by a majority Of the commit
tet.
Commissioner of Agriculture R. R.
Poole Of Alabama as chairman pre-
scented the report Of the committee on
statistics. It suggested that every
commissioner be placed in position to
secure a complete return of all gins
operated in his state and the entire
number of bales ginned of the crop
Of 1904 and 1905 and be in a position
to furnish this information twice
month during September, October, No
Vember and December, 1905, and
monthly to March, inclusive.
The committee approved the pres
ent methods of the National Ginners
Association as the quickest and most
feasible way Of getting out reports.
The state legislatures are asked to
make ample provision to enable their
commissioners to carry out these
ideas
A number Of addresses were deliv-
cred at the forenoon session.
The report Of the committee on per-
manent organization was presented at
the afternoon session. It provides
for the creation of the Southern Cot
ton Association, embracing all the cot
ton producing states and territories,
to regulate cotton production, cotton
supply and financing, and especially
cotton marketing, using every effort
to secure broader markets AID to linn
