INQUES! STORY
OF THE SHOOTING
Of Robert {. Lynch BY Robert
Spivey Confirms Story of
Independent.

Cotton Plant, May l2.-Rob-
err SpiVey has been acquitted of
the killing of his step father,
Robert Lynch, last Friday
night. The coroner's Jury, COM
posed Of II white residents of
Monroe county eXonerated Spiv-
ey Of tae killing and he was dis
charged 10y John Z. Davis. a JUS
tee Of the peace OF Richland
township, Monroe county, after
preliminary hearing.
Owing to the difficulty Of get
ting information from Sauls-
burg, which is Just across the
line in Monroe county, it was
difficult to get the details of the
shooting and this caused the cir
culation of an erroneous report
that Spivey had shot his step
father at the latter's home af-
ter Lynch had ordered him to
keep away.
That Lynch, armed with a re-
volver and a dirk, was killed
while climbing in q window Of
his estranged wife's home, that
he had intended to kill Mrs.
Lynch a few hours before, was
the evidence brought out at the
coroner's inquest and at the pre-
liminary examination.
Spivey was in Brinkley the
day Of the killing and was not at
home when Lynch called at the
home of his estranged wife.
Justice Davis, who discharged
Robert Spivey from custody, is
the same justice who eXonerat-
ed Lynch for having killed
Frank Kennedy on a Rock Island
train near Salisbury nearly two
years ago. The second Mrs.
Lynch and Mrs. Kennedy are
sisters.
The testimony of Mrs. Lynch
at the inquest was corroborated
by DIR. r. T. Gephart of Cotton
Plant. F. P. Keel, G. farmer liv-
ing near Mrs. Lynch's home
and Harriet Smith, a negro
cook, all of whom when called to
the scene of the shooting, found
the circumstances surrounding
to be as stated by Mrs. Lynch.

otherwise have cost $265>9O0.
Less than two per cent Of fS,

They felt they were working for

they were building something
they and their families would be

could not be worked like that. |
don't believe you could trust the
negro convicts, but you could
take from the 200 white men in

firmly believe that it will work

TESTING SOILS IN SCHOOL

A series of valuable experiments that
may be carried on by the children of
any home or by the country school
teacher and her pupils consists in test
Ing the suitability of different kinds of
soils for growing different kinds of
crops, such as alfalfa, beets, onions
and the like. while tests may also be
made Of soils to which lime, manure
and commercial fertilizers have been
added Samples of the soils from diff
ferent fields or neighborhoods should
be got in pots of a uniform size and
the seeds planted therein. By COM
pairing the growth made by the same
kind Of plants in the different soils 1t
can be very easily determined which
soil Is best suited to growing different
crops, while 1t can also be learned what
fertilizers added to the soil give the
best results with given crop.

was getting on swimmingly until he
got to preparing buckwheat pancakes.
He put the yeast or starter In at night
all right, but In the morning, instead Of
toning the batter up with pinch of
saleratus Sodium carbonate), he got
hold of a fancy package Of sodium
phosphate and didn't notice till the
fourth morning that farther down on
the package directions were given for
the use of it as a special bowel tonic
and regulator. 1t will be some time
before this chef" will dare to look

Good roads will keep people in the
country and will bring city people to

Did you ever hear this? THE roads

could get to town was by telephone
The good roads campaign is an old
one, but there is such a thing as put
ting old truisms into such new form
as to make them take on meaning for
the first time. Many an article has
been advertised into fame and popu-
larity by catchy phrase, while many
man has found his reputation estab-
lished or enhanced by a few words
rightly joined. The man who can put
the national cry for good roads into a
few well chosen words which carry
the punch" with them and absolutely
refuse to be forgotten will be deserv
ing of as much praise when the cam
paign is at an end as any man who
goes out and actually performs the
manual labor in the highway.
