Former County Judge James Hsrgis

Democratic executive committee and
accused Of completely Ia many muir
ders and a prominent figure in the
feuds which have disrupted Bres thntt
county for several years, was shot and
killed in his general store here this af-
ternoon by his son, Beach Hargis
The son fired five shots in rapid sue
cession 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 10 supposed TO
have been the result Of differences
which have existed between the father
and son for some time. The two men
are reported to have had severe quar-
rel several nights ago when the father,
1t u alleged, was compelled to resort
to whence to restrain his son. Young
e
Hargis IL said to have been drinking
heavily.
Judge Hargis will be buried IN a
casket which he himself rurchaed
about month ago.
Some time during the early part OF
last month Judge Hargis tito the
National Casket Company, at Louis
Vile, and request that he be shown
the most elaborate films the COM
pany has in stocs. Nothing suited
him. Finally he ordered ore along his
own Ideas, costing 81 500.
This afternoon the following teIe-
gram was received by the company
