by her brother, Frank, aged seven
years. with shotgun yesterday morn

live on the Turner farm, rented by
Lee Lasater, by whom Mr.. Burnett is
employed. On the morning of the
shooting Mrs, Burnett was washing,
while her husband was at his work on
the farm. The seven year old boy
went to his fathers trunk near the
bed and got shell, and taking the shot
gun from under the bed slipped the
she'll into it, the gun being unloaded
at the time, as Mr.. Burn EFT did not
keep it loaded He then went into the
kitchen where his sister, Lou, was at
work. There were no witnesses pres
ent, and it is not known how the gun
was discharged, but the sound of the
shot brought Mrs. Burnett to the
room, where CHASTITY sight met her
eyes The charge had entered the
right ear of the girl, leaving only its
rim, and bad gone out at back of
head, carrying a piece of the skull
with it. Mrs Burnett caught up the
body of the little girl, streaming with
blood. and carried it to the front door,
where she sat holding it in her arms
screaming for her husband to come, who
was working not far away. Death had
been instantaneous, and nothing could
be done. 1t will never be known just

Tom Kinnon, colored, will be exc
cuted tomorrow at Nashville for rape.
He declares that he knows nothing OF
the crime, and the evidence is pretty
conclusive that he doesn't, as it is
clear he is a whiskey and dope tiend.
Proposition should be made to Kinnon
to declare the name of the party who
sold him liquor, and that being proven
on the arrested party, make them both
work on the public streets the rest OF
their lives under guard. We hold and
believe that the man who sells or gives
stuff that causes crime is just as gull
ty as the one who commits it. In 9TH
or words we condemn the cause in
stead of the effect. This will tramp
on the toes of some of our democratic
friends who condemn the effect and
not the cause, aud who argue that re-
straint of the right Of individuals to
spread the cause is undemocratic. and
an infringement on the personal hber-
ty of the people, Under this system
the negro who committed the crime is
hung, while the party who gave him
the stuff that influenced the crime goes
scot free to hand it out to others, with
like results possibly. s,,a1 E,u
