SHE WOULD NOW DIE HERSELF
Constantly Pleads for Some One to Kill Her-Opposed Her Husbands
 Attending Union Meeting.

De Witt. Ark-News has just reach. ed this place of the killing ol the IT, year-old son of Daniel Jenkins, by his mother in an attempt to kill her hus- band. The Jenkins are farmers liv- ing eight miles east of this place. MT. Jenkins wanted to attend a meeting of the Farmers Union Saturday night but his wife positively forbade him tG leave the house, that if he attempted leave the house, saying that if he at tempted to do so she would kill him.
 D.r. Jenkins left the dwelling ani had gotten outside the gate when he heard screams and returned. As he neared the house he met his 17-year- old boy, who ran up to him and lm' plored him to flee for his life, as his mother was coming with a gun and intended to kill him.
 Jenkins did not realize his danger, but the boy, seeing his mother coming with the gun, begged her to spare his life
 Jenkins asked the woman to dron the gun, but she rushed out and fired at her husband, but the whole dis charge entered the breast of the boy, killing him instantly.
 Mrs. Jenkins has not yet been ar rested, but will be as soon as the boy is buried.
 Many believe her to be insane, as there is insanity in her family. She is still at home with her large family of children doing all her work as though nothing unusual had happened, but constantly asking some one to kill her.
