SCHOOL TEACHER LOSES. LIFE IN
 FIRE
c. w. Shutl, of Chester, Burned To Death in Hotel BuiIding-Lamp
 Exploded.

o. w. Shull, principal of the Ches- ter public school was burned to death in his room, in that city We'd nesday evening at about o'clock.
 All circumstances point to an ex- planation of the shocking occurrence about as follows Mr. Shull had at- tempted to light fire in his room with oil from the lamp, an explosion had followed, and either Mir. Shull was so seriously injured as to be unable to save himself and give the alarm, or the shock of the explosion brought on an attack of a nervous trouble from which he had formerly suffered.
 At the boarding house of Mrs. Ella Wood, where MT. Shull was a guest. he left the supper table at about 6: 30, going to his room on the sec ond floor Persons recall having heard some sound from the second f cor, about twenty minutes late. but It appears not to have been suf- ficiently unusual to attract special attention. In all probability it was then that the explosion occurred. Be tween five and ten minutes after this flames were seen issuing from the second floor Of the building by young man, Roy Creekmore. who was at the well in the yard; and a few seconds later by persons in the Black hardware store
 The alarm brought immediate re- sponse and the contents of the low CT floor, including the piano, were practically all saved; but the second floor could not be reached and the unhappy victims room was seeth- ing mass of flame. The building, which was the property of Mrs Pet CTS of Van Buren, former resident of Chester, was totally destroyed
 Mir. Shull's body was burned into an unrecognizable condition, DOT tions of il being incinerated, but the finger bones of one hand still clasp ed fragment of the stem of the lamp.
 Mr. Shull was about 8 years of age. He leaves his wife and two children ' and 9 years old. He was an unusually successful farmer and orchard man, his farm home being near Alma, where his family remained during his work in the Chester school.
 Mir. Shull's father, whose home is at Rudy, came up to Chester Thurs day morning. returning that after noon with the remains to Alma.

ACCIDENTAL
 SHOOTING

Late Saturday afternoon, Irwin Car ter, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Car ter, of this place, was accidentally shot by Will Crutcher, son of Dr. and Mrs. W. J. Crutcher. The bullet en- .ering on the back side of the left leg, and travelling around the bone to the upper side, where it was re- moved by the physician.
 The shooting was done with a 22 calibre rifle. Young Crutcher, and two other companions, one Of whom carried small gun, were hunting on the Carter place, southwest Of town, and it is supposed shot toward the barn tryino to kill some of the tame pigeons flying and resting there. IT, yin was in the. loft of the barn gath ering eggs, when he heard shot fired, and 1t struck the barn, the next shot evidently went through a crack for it struck Carter as above stated; the third shot also struck the barn The boys then started to town through the nearby fields. Irwin called for help, and walked to the house, while his mother summoned physi- clan The bullet was cut cut, and Irwin is resting as nicely as could be expected, and vii probably be de tained at home for three or four weeks He is a student of the Uni versity of Arkansas, and the absence from school will doubtless prove detrimental
 Although Mir. Carter has his place posted and allows no hunting on his premises, he has been called upon several times to run hunters from the farm and Saturday afternoon Mrs. Carter had asked the boys to leave. The Carter home is just at the edge of town, and the c'ose proximity of houses, and the heavy travel on the highway makes hunting on his place doubly dangerous.
 The boys doubtless regret the accident, and possibly would not have fired toward the barn if they had known anyone was inside, but a tar get gun in the hnads of small boys is most dangerous weapon in more ways than one.

OUR LITTLE
 ROCK LETTER
HM..M. Collier.

Little Rock, Feb. 14.-Though the legislature just got in half time this week, there were several mat ters of importance considered in the three days The Actuarial Bureau won and lost and now stands under fire" for another vote; the repeal Of state aid to high schools lost in the senate, having passed the house; the senate passed the bill by Senator Greenhouse to consolidate state and national elections; passed the Moore primary bill; also passed a bill by Senator Greenhouse to require all printing under Act. No or printing Constitutional Amendments to be let by the State Printing Board, instead of the Secretary of State as at pres ent The House passed a bill for a Constitutional Convention, to be com posed of one delegate from each coun- ty and 15 at large; making 90 in all. Arguments against this were that the expense was not justified at this time and that the new one would be to amend at the next session of the legislature. For 1t was thought the cost would not be more than half the cost of amending the old one every two years as has been the case for several years and that new features were needed owing to changed con ditions.
 Both houses passed bill making the possession of burglar tools a fel- ony, and for raising the indigency of applications for Confederate pensions to $1 ,000 instead of $400.00
 The only information as to appro- priations yet is that the legislature is asked to appropriate 8, 100000 and the estimated revenues are $2 s00.- 900. It is expected that the appropri ton bills will come in this week and

(Mulkeepmo.)

Johnson, Ark Feb. 16.-Dick Lich- lyter's home was destroyed by fire about o'clock Monday evening. The fire caught in some way from the kit chen stove flue, and was under great headway when discovered. The neighbors helped to save the most of the household goods and all of the contents of the smokehouse, which stood near enough to catch and burn too. A large lot of canned fruit, etc.. was in a large cellar under the kit chen department and all of it was lost. The loss is partially covered by $500 insurance on the dwelling ant contents. The residence was a one story four room frame, with an in closed sleeping porch.
 There was but very little wind at the time and local folks are thank ful, too, for if the fire had chance to have occurred sduring one of the windy evenings of last week, several other buildings would have burned as it would have been poor fight against the flames with such gales of wind as We had here Friday and Sat l1rdav
