SOii'CllllOIl, anu IL was agreed
unanimously that the proposed
road be brought from Bowling
Green to Russellville. thence to
Hopkinsville, and forward to
Paducah by the most feasible
route. This latter part of the
agreement contains the fighting
chance" for this and the two ad
joining counties of Livingston
and Caldwell to become part of
this great Highway, and was only
secured on the understanding
that these counties had not
had an opportunity of organ
izing and comforting with regard
to the matter; and in order to
facilitate this, it was aged fur
Their that another meeting should
be held in Paducah on Friday
morning Sept. 22nd at 10 O. clock
at (which the proposed route should
be finally selected.
Proud of the fact this concess-
ion had been obtained, the Mar
ion delegation left Hopkinsville
on Saturday afternoon, and
travelled by train to Princeton,
where the two automobiles of
Messrs John Wilson and w. V.
Haynes were in waiting, and in
which they were conveyed home,
reaching Marion by about ten
O'Clock on Saturday night.
News of this important mat
ter was circulated freely on Mon
day, and a call for a meeting of
the business interests was made
for Monday night in the Court
House. At this meeting, pre-
sided over by Judge Blue, it was
resolved that the adjacent count
les interested be at once ascer-
tanned, and a Committee, con.
sisting of w B. Yandell, P. S.
Maxwell, T. H. Cochran, Jno.
A. Moore, DR.. Arthur Mather,
G. H. Foster, w. V. Haynes and
John Wilson. was appointed to
this work and report
to another meeting to be called
later.
After this matter had been
decided it was unanimously re-
solved that a Good Roads AS
ISOLATION" be formed for Crit.
tenden County so that the work
of improving our highways may
be taken in hand right away.
A large initial membership was
enrolled. which will doubtless
grow greater as the enterprise
becomes known, and there is
evidence that the i'm
mediate future will see great

oId-TIme Squirrel Rifle.

When Col. W. A. Toombs returned recently from the old homestead near Coiltown he brought back with him his fathers squirrel rife, which has been continuously in possession of the family since 1S46 It is handmade throughout and was of that full stocked type common among the hunt CTS of Tennessee and Kentucky three generations ago.
 The barrel is AT inches long and is furnished with the finest level sights for long range shooting. It's original caliber was 12O bullets to the pound, but having been dressed out and re rified several times it now carries 60 to the pound. The lock is of the back action type and it in as good condition today as when 1t left the makers hands 70 years ago. The triggers are a marvel of workmanship. They are of that kind known as double" or "hair" triggers and are governed with a set screw which regulates them un til they will respond to the slightest touch.-Madisonvi Hustler.

WIFE KEPT HER MURDER PACT
Shot Son and Herself After Husband's Death-FamiIy Troubles Cause
 of Tragedy.

Oxford, Me.-In fulf1llment of a com pact made with her husband during his lingering illness, which death end ed this week, Mrs. Lynwood s. Keene took her own life after having fatally shot her 14-year-old son Gerald. The compact, dated about a month back, was found by the coroner in a sealed envelope in the woman's room in the Keene home.
 The document bore the names of both MT. and Mrs. Keene. although the husband, apparently. had been too feeble to make more than his mark, his name being written by his wife. The document recited briefly the fam fly troubles. In 1t Keene's death war predicted and both parents declared it would be wrong to have their son re- main. in the world to suffer the trou- bles they experienced. Mrs. Keene bound herself to do away with her self and their son Gerald as soon as possible after the death of the ihus- band and father.
 In letters the husband and wife ask ed to be buried in a double casket, and that their sons coffin and theirs be placed in the same box for final inter- ment.
