we're filled. The afternoon was

for home. And on our way we
passed our good friend, Mr.. Glib.

about . o'clock that night members
Of the household were frightened
by someone appearing at window
of the dining room. When asked
who he was aud what was wanted
the man withdrew from the house.
Carr stated further that he went out
in the yard and saw the man go
into the orchard. Mr.. Carr then
went into the house and secured his
gun and seated himself on the front
porch IN iull view of the dining
room window and waited perhaps
thirty minutes when the man again
appeared at the window. Mr.. Carr
swore that he again called to the
man TO make himself known and TO
state his business there and reoeiv-
ing no reply raised his gun and
fired. The man staggered back a
few feet and fell, exolaiming, "l'm
killed." Mr.. Carr then called j. 4.

AGRICULTURAL MEN
IN SCHOOL THIS WEEK

Ii was with pleasure that the ed
itor of the Star Herald attended a
part Of the session of the School of
Agriculture at Biggers first Of the
week, ana to note the great interest
manifested by the citizens Of the
town and surrounding country.
All the speakers aud demonstrators
scheduled to be there were present
and the program, as announced in
the papers last week, was carried
out to the letter.
The practical farmers OF the
community around Biggers were
out in full force, 1t being estimated
that fully two hundred attended all or
part Of the school, and all took a great
deal of interest IN the lectures and
demonstrations. 1t was interesting
to note the effect tins coming to-
gether of science and theories and
actual practice Is having upon the
farmers of the community. While
many of the best farmers, who took
leading part IN the discussion of
the many subjects presented, did
not agree with the Government
men in all things pertaining to the
cultivation Of crops, etc, they did
agree that most of the theories ad-
vanced were good and that this
coming together and interchanging
Of ideas was calculated to be of
great benefit to the farmers.
Mr.. b. f. Bigger was host tor
the occasion and, as is always the
case with him, took special pains
to see that all his guests were cared
for and entertained IN the proper
manner.
From Biggers the party in charge
Of County Demonstrators John Il.
Klzer, went to Maynard Wednesday
where very pleasant and profta.
BILE day was spent. They are here
today Thursday and will be in
Old Jackson Saturday.

TOM CARR FIRES ON NIGHT
PR0MLER AND RESULT is FATAL

A fatal tragedy occurred at the
home Of T, j. Carr, two miles west
of town Tuesday night, in which
Ben Chesser of Blrdell, aged about
s5 years, received wounds from
which he died early Wednesday
morning.
About nine o'clock Tuesday night
DIR. II. L. Tsrogmorton received a
telephone call to the Carr home and
At the same time Constable X. n.
Lewis was called and when they ar.
rived there they found that Ben
Chesser had been shot, Mr.. Carr ad.
mitting that be did the shooting.
Young Chesser's wounds were
dressed and he was brought TO town
and an effort made to get a place
for him at one Of the local hotels,
but no accommodations could be
found. Sheriff Russell was called
and a room was provided IN the
county Jail where the injured man
was taken and made as comfortable
as possible. His injuries were much
more serious than was at first sup
posed by the physician for he died
at about six o'clock the following
morning.
Mr.. Carr surrendered and a pre-
liminary hearing was had IN Esq.
Douglass court Wednesday after.
noon in which Mr.. Carr was fully
exhonorated.
The evidence Of several witness
es was to the effect that Mr.. Ches-
ser had been an unwelcome visitor
at the Carr home and had been
warned to keep away. Carr and
his daughter testified that on several
occasions previous to this time that
Chesser had been there in an intoxi
Gated condition and had been seen
prowling about the premises during
the night time. Mr.. Carr stated,

SUGGESTED CHANGE
IN FRISCO SCHEDULE

Much complaint is being made oi
late relative to the passenger service
out of Pooabontas and other towns
up and down the Frisco line and a
change has been suggested which
we believe would be a good one and
one that would relieve the situation
entirely without adding any extra
expense, whatever to the railroad
company.
On the present schedule the com
pauy is operating two freight trains
between Poplar Bluff and Jonesbo,
ro--one each way every day. They
usually meet here about noon.
These freight trains carry coaches
for the accommodation of passen-
gers, but on the present schedule
the service Is OF little value to the
people along the line, either north
or south. II is impossible for peo
pie TO get out Of Pocahontas, Big
gers, Reyno, or any other town
north and return the same day.
MANY travelling salesmen have quit
coming this way because they can,
not get through or get out without
staying over night. The freight
service, even IN Pocahontas, is not as
satisfactory as it was under the old
schedule, because both trains get
here at the busiest time of the day
and mel chants are unable to give
proper attention TO the receiving OF
freight. In the shipping of live
stock OF freight of any description
to st. Louis, or any point north,
the service is very poor.
The change which has been sug
gested Is about as follows: That
Pocahontas be the terminal and
that one train make a round trip to
Poplar Bluff each day and that the
other train make a round trip,
either from this point, to or from
Jonesboro.
Under this arrangement the cost
to the company would be no greater
than 1t is now, as both crews must
he maintained, and the accomoda.
tion to the patrons of the read
would be appreciated by everybody
in the towns and country up and
down the line, both ways.
A petition asking for a change
will be presented to the railroad
company at an early date.
