 It seems that Mrs. Eye and her 14-year-old son, Harry, went into the yard to kill a chicken. The boy carried 22-caliber rife with which to kill the chicken, and iu some manner the gun was accidently discharged, the bullet striking Mrs. Eye in the right thigh just above the knee which ranged inward and backward, in- flicting very painful wound. The injury, however, is not thought to be serious and Mrs. Eye is reported as resting easy.

JEFF DAVIS MAY SWITCH.
He May Give Support to Candidate
 Other Than Kirby.

Little Rock, Nov. 2S From a strong under current which is just coming to the surface, i, begins to look as though Jefi Davis will soon return from Washington and the political conference will take place iu which he will transfer his support from Kirby to another candidate for governor.
 This much has been allowed to leak out abont The state house, but who the candidate is who will receive the support of Arkan' sas' junior senator will probably not be known until after ths meeting is held.
 A candidate for the legislature from the northwest part of the state, who is now in Little Rock, says that section of the state i: almost solid for Oonaghey, no. withstanding the fact that tht other three candidates have spen' much time making speeche: there.

The wicked soldiers lay hold on Jesus, and with a hammer blow after blow they drove the nails through his hands and feet, then lifting the cross they left him hang ing between earth and heaven to dle. Let us kneel beneath the shade ot the cross and offer thanks unto tod, who so loved us that he gave ms only begotton son that whosoever belleveth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.
 GIFT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
 We thank God for the gift of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit reveals God and brings him nigh unto us. He IS our guide and comforter and bears witness with our spirit that we are the children of God.
 Now in conclusion I shall speak of the way of Thanksgiving. We should order our actions by the word of God. The Bible is the only sufficient guide of life and rule of conduct. It is storehouse of good things, and seems to say to it's mil lions of students, put me not to the racks, but question me necessarily for my treasure shall never be ex- hausted. We should daily scatter seeds of kindness on fields through which we pass. We cannot compute the value of little act of kindness little acts, if prompted by a true heart are made mighty under God. Consider what a few dollars will do in sending the gospel to those who have it not. Thank God that hundreds and thousands of the heather are turning away from their idols and accepting Christ the religion of Jesus Christ is gain ing the vantage ground over every other religion.

THANKSGIVING
 DAY IN MENA
Business Supplanted by Devotional Services. Visiting, Feastipg and Pleasure Seeking At Churches,
 Theater and Auditorium.

The almost complete cessation of business and labor in Mena Thursday caused the day to have a very close resemblance to a quiet Sunday. This was intensi. fled during the hours of the morn. ing by the many who turned out in Sunday apparel 10 attend the devotional services, all churches save the Catholic and Episcopal uniting is service at the Baptist church, the latter named holding their regular services for the day.
 At the close of the devotional exercises most of the people, both church goers and others, were soon gathered about en1eriug due homage to King Turkey, following which the quiet streets were enlivened by pedestrian ns enjoying the braciug air and wearing countenances that bore no traces of discontent with lite, the money s.ringency" having apparently been entirely over looked for the time being.
 As darkness gathered and tho lights of the city spdrkled forth, many firesides were ,he scene of happy family reunions and gatherings of friends, and then our chef amusement places, the opera house and Auditorium, attracted hundreds of seekers after pleasure and recreation.
 Even the Telephone Girls.
 Thursday, as all business houses were closed in order to observe Thanksgiving and em- ployees generally were given the whole day, Mir. Davis, manager of the local telephone exchange, decided that it was a courtesy due the telephone operators that they be given from noon to ? o'clock in which to enjoy their dinners at home, and stayed al the office himself to answer i'm portant calls ia case of accident or anything of that kind, and, while he was unable to answer all calls promptly, even with the help of his little son, he did the best he could to fill the tour po- sitions.
 The truth of the saying, "all kinds of people make a world," was made very plain at least to him. Some Of the subscribers, not recognizing Central" in the new voice, refused to tell what number they wanted and would demand ring off, l want Gen. tral"; some. not getting Central promptly as usual, would go to ueighbor's phone and ring up, thinking their own phone out os order. Many of the occurrences were very trying at the time, and it was a very lively two hours for the lone operator, and he out of practice. However, out of the many, he had the satisfaction of hearing hut one real complaint, after the situation was explained, and that ONE maintained that the operators had no more rights on Thanksgiving day than any other day, but be probably did not mean it-at least after he thought it over. Would you?
