to Death With Ak and Gun,

Dispatches received in Atlanta

sort near Aberdeen, Miss. Tuesday
morning
DR.. Broyles was well known in At
lanta, having been in this city ten
days ago, accompanied by two police
officers Of his State. to take back
A. ID. oliver, swindler who had been
released from jail after serving
three-year sentence. DR. Rroyles was
one Of the victims Of divers alleged
crooked operations in Mississippi and
had brought requisition papers to take
the prisoner back to his State for
trial.
Through Recorder Broyl the Sen
ator had been introduced to Governor
Slaton and secured the Governors
signature to the requisition papers.
He returned to Mississippi just last
Wednesday.
Broyles died with bullet in his
heart and Hendricks skull was cleft
almost by the keen edge of an ak
welded by the Senator as the revol-
yer of his foe disCbarped
So quickly was the double tragedy
enacted, that a score Of persons on
the hotel veranda, who had seen the
start of the difficulty and were run
ming to separate the men, gained only
half the distance before they were
paralyzed with horror as the flash of
the revolver and the fall of the
death dealing ak brought the two
men down together to the stone floor
ing lifeless.
Follows Business Quarrel.
The bodies rolled off the dam and
fell a distance of 20 feet into the
gully below, where they were picked
up.
The fight to death brought to an
end a quarrel of years standing
between Broyles and Hendricks
which found it's origin in the value
of some timber holdings which the
former had sold to the latter and his
son.
BY chance the two men came to-
gether at the Greenwood Springs Ho-
tel which was owned by the Senator.
The old quarrel was renewed and
clash was averted between them in
the hotel lobby last night
Staying Stirs Whole State.
This morning the men came to-
gether again, on top Of the dam.
Whether by appointment, is not
known. but early risers at the hotel
saw them there and gave the alarm.
Several persons shouted to the dis
putants and started running toward
;zzs:.
As they did SO, Senator Broyles
was seen to stoop over ana pick up
an AK lying on the dam. At the same
time Hendricks drew revolver. As
Hendricks revolver flashed, Broyles
buried the AK in his opponents skull.
The double staying is one of the
most startling that has been commit
tel in this State in years. owing to
the prominence of the men involved.

VERM0NTERS IN WASHINGTON
Senator Dinghams Amendment to Income Tax Provision
Voted Down-Gen Mills to Attend Vermont State
Fair at White River Junction

WASHINGTON, d. c., September II.
On Monday when Senator Dilling-
ham S amendment to the income tax
provision to the tariff bill, which would
redistribute the money collected
through the imposition of the income
tax to the several states of the union
on the basis of population to be expen-
ded in the construction and mainte-
nance of public highways, was up for
consideration in the Senate he made a
speech defending its provisions, con-
tending that with the rapidly increasing
expenses of the states for public inn
provements the states needed the money
much more than the nation and they
would be enabled to meet their growing
demands in the way of improved high
ways, advanced educational facilities,
etc. He declared himself in favor of
a graduated income tax which would
lay higher rate upon large incomes
than those laid upon those of lesser
amount, but he attacked the exemption
of the Democratic bill holding that all
should join in meeting the expenses of
the government and so be better fitted
to perform the obligations Of good citi-
zenship. Such graduated income tax,
he thought, could be assessed and
| collected by the federal govern
ment, but the proceeds should be dis
tributed to the states in a just and
! Equitable division and expended by them
for some elementary function of gov
eminent as in the construction and
maintenance of public highways. The
amendment was lost by an overwhelm-
ing vote of - To "A.

LITTLE TALKS ON BABYoLOGY
BY ANNA sTEEsE RICHARDSON


The outing flannel gowns are for
front, like a kimono. 4 more expen-
sixe substitute for outing flannel in
the stockingette nightgowns.
There is nothing better than soft
cheese cloth for baby's first diapers.
Later the average mother finds birds
eye more satisfactory than cotton fan
mel There are many patent diapers
on the market Avoid ali those made
with an interlining- or one surface OF
rubber. For first diapers. a good ma
terial is old soft Turkish toweling.
In this connection, it may be said that
lit is safer TO wash all of baby's ctSth-
ing before it is worn. In this day of
merceriSed and treated" fabrics there
may be chemicals used in bleaching,
etc, that will injure the tender flesh
and start a case of eczema.
1 These articles will keep the baby
Ecomfortabf,. until he is three months
old, when a few more elaborate slips
and prettier coat may be added to this
outfit, with perhaps nainsook petit
coat or two. But everything should
be simple. loose and hung from the
shoulders. Nothing should interfere
with his digestion, breathing and mo-
ltions. The baby bound at any point
of his small anatomy will fret.
Never use on the newborn baby
tnew diapers that have not been thor
ioughly washed to remove ali the
dressing" in the fabric. If possible
have old materials for the first diapers,
or cheese cloth washed soft Babies
chafe so easily in the first few weeks
of their lives.
The care of the baby's clothing is
all important. 1t must be kept scrup,
ulously clean, and washed with clean
water and pure white soap. Diapers
should not be dried and then used a
second time. Directly they are re
moved. they should be dropped into
an enameled or stone pail of water
: kept for the purpose, and washed out
: every day. Flannels carelessly washed
will shrink and in1ame tender skin
Slips not properly rinsed in washing
will irritate the flesh at neck and
wrists and under the arms
In hot weather, a baby should be-
dressed accordingly, for comfort. A
cotton shirt should be substituted fol
wool. knitted belly-band Of cottor
for the wooden one. The baby winter
or summer, that perspires is over
dressed.
The restless baby should have night
