Paducah, KY, April 7.-Co-opera-
ton of the State soldiers with Coun-
ty Judge All Wells at Murray will
result in the arrest Of at least ten
men before the end of the week,
this information coming from an
authoritative source.
The night patrols and the day pa
trolls have resulted in the gathering
of much evidence that has been con-
veyed to Judge Wells. Warrants for
ten alleged night riders have already
been issued and the soldiers will
commence to-day or tomorrow to
serve them. Every man arrested
will be arraigned before the County
Judge for preliminary hearing.
The County Judge and company
officers refuse to make a statement
regarding the matter. The ten ar
rests may be the first installment Of
large band.
Maj. Albrecht and Capt. j. L.
Owens, of Company H., arrived al
Murray last night from Hopkinsville
To-day they held long conference
with Judge Wells. 1t is said that
they planned the course to pursue
in the future. This is Maj. AL

Dir. Samuel Garrard who lived
five miles north Of the city, died
suddenly last night about nine
o'clock after the slightest indis-
position that had apparently i'm
proved through the day.
He had been in slightly inn
paired health several months but
yesterday was evidently better.
He fell suddenly sick last night
and at 9 o'clock was dead. He
was 70 years old and his age is
accounted the chief cause of his
death.
He was a member of the Meth.
odist church and the funeral will
be conducted tomorrow afternoon
at l o'clock from Dukes Chape',
Rev. Z. w. Fisher preaching the
sermon. He leaves a wife, two
sons and one daughter.
In life he was faithful TO his
friends, and church. He was a
good farmer, a confederate sol.
der and liked by all who knew
him.

Accidentally Killed.

The coroner of Chatham coun-
ty was called Tuesday to sit
upon the cause of the shooting Of
Joe Mason, a colored man Of low
er Chatham, by another colored
man whose name could not be
learned.
The account given was mea-
gre, simply saying the two col.
ored men were friends and had
been in a tussle. Getting up
from the ground, the friend Of
Mason went into his house and
bringing out an old shotgun,
raised it and actually shot the
head of Mason off, breaking his
neck and killing him in a second.
The coroner held the investiga.
ton Tuesday morning and af.
ter an examination of all wit.
nesses decided that there was
nothing criminal about the &C.
ton and released the defendant.
He was not held for manslaugh.

TIE dead man was known BY

ed for them. He had three
small children and was about
forty years old.

"BUT IT At HOME. &"

How does the above sound?
You have heard it before, but
did you heed the admonition, or
do like many others send away
and get some home product that
you could have secured near your
home?
The mail order house is all
right, but if you ever figured out
the proposition, you would read
lily see that to run a business in
a large city costs more than to
run a business in a small town,
and the same article, quality and
other advantages considered,
could have been secured right at
your door.
The above advice is free, abso-
luteIy, and while you may figure
that you secured a bargain by
ordering some household article,
in the long run you will find that
you would be better off in every
way IL you had patronized the
home merchant. It is true that
the mail order people take more
pains to make their offers more
attractive than does the home
merchant, and it is we'll to con-
slider that he seeks in more ways
to inform you Of what he has to
offer, but when it comes to the
real value, the home merchant
can best serve you.
