KILLED HIS FATHER

Corning, June 21.-Henry Brashers
a well-to-do farmer, 10 years of age
was found dead in bed at his home a
few miles southeast of here early this
morning with bucksot in his head,
having been shot sometime during
Saturday night.
Suspicious circumstances caused the
arrest of his son, JEFF, after which he
IS said to have confessed his guilt to
the officer who had him in custody.
He alleged cruel treatmenty of his
mother by his father as the cause OF
the deed, his parents having been
separated for some time.
The young man escaped for the time
being, but by the aid of bloodhounds
he was located at his mothers home
at Hornersville, and was taken tc
Paragould and placed in jail to await
the action of the grand jury, the kill
ing having been done just over the
line in Green county.

There is a growing sentiment in
favor of temperance. The drinking
man is not in demand. His presnee
is objected to. His work is distrusted.
Great business concerns refuse en-
ployment to men who drink. Rail
roads discharge them because there is
too much at stake to permit their pres
ence. Human life is worth too much
to permit a drunken man to cause a
wreck. Each man owes to his oeeu-
patton the best there is in him: and he
cannot have a clear head and firm
hand if his brain be influenced by
drink, or his nerves be weakened by

Did you ever think of the great debt
you owe to the churches? There are
citizens who feel that all they give to
churches is charity. Yet there are no
better investments; and you owe SO
much to them that you should recognize
the debt, and pay it with unstinting
hand The minister of the Gospel
should not be regarded as an object of
charity. He is your truthful worker,
and gives more than he receives.
What would your home be worth if
there were no churches in the land?

TReSIAR BAKERY MSTAlS
NEW MODERN MACHINERY

Among the many different enter
prises and business houses that have
opened In Canon during the past four
years no one perhaps has met with
greater success than the Star Bakery,
which was opened in 1904 by Messrs.
Bachelor and veach. Whether Canon
was then feeling the need Of a better
bakery or whether the personality
and business methods Of Messrs.
Bachelor and veach has been the
cause Of the success, il Of course. a
question: perhaps both these features
have had their bearing. The fact
stands, however. that withia six
months time their quarters at 5e2
Main street were too small and neces-
STATED an addition on the rear. The
next four months found the oven too
small to bake the necessary output
and accordingly another large addi-
ton was built and a larger oven in
stalled The building now extends
back to the alley and we are informed
by Mr.. Bachelor that even now there
is no space wasted and a trip there
