KILLED BY HIS SON
JUDGE JAMES HARois SHOT TO
DEATH IN QUARREL.
HIMSELF A NOTED MURDERER
Old Mountain Character to BE Buried
In 81, 500 Coffin He Had Selected
on Recent Visit.

Jackson, KY, Feb. Former Coun.
ty Judge James Hargis, for many
years q member Of the state executive
committee, accused Of completely in
many great murders. and prominent
figure In the feuds which had dis
rupted Briethitt county for several
years, was shot and instantly killed
in his general store here yesterday
afternoon by his son, Beach Hargis.
The son fred five shots in rapid
succession at his father, who fell dead
while his clerks were waiting on Gus.
toners.
The exact cause of the murder has
not been learned but it is supposed to
have been the result of differences
which have existed between father
and son for some time. The two men
are reported to have had quarrel
several nights ago, when the father,
it Is alleged, was compelled to
resort to violence to restrain his son.
Young Hargis, it is said, had been
drinking heavily of late. He came in
to the store lest yesterday afternoon
and was apparently under the influ-
ence of liquor. Judge Hargis, it is
said, spoke to his son about his drink
ing and a quarrel resulted. Father
and son stepped behind a counter in
the store, when the son, after only
few minutes controversy drew a re-
volver and fired five shots. The first
took effect, the noted mountain char
acter falling dead.
The young lady stenographer and
the customers in the store rushed for
the doors and fled in fright.
Young Hargis was arrested and
placed in Jail. He was raving like
maniac and the officers were compell-
ed to drag him to Jail.
Judge Hargis will be buried in
casket which he, himself, purchased
about a month ago Some time dur
ing the early part of last month Judge
Hargis went to casket company in
Louisville and requested that he be
shown the most elaborate collins the
company had in stock. Nothing suited
him, and he finally ordered one along
his own ideas, costing $1,000. Yester-
day afternoon the following telegram
was sent to the. company:
Express today casket selected by
James Hargis, as he Is dead"
