DEFENDS HER HONOR
WITH AUTOMATIC GUN

Only the woman's poor markham
ship saved the life of Charlie Turner.
when Mrs. NJ. l.. Heavrin fired three
shots at him, at close range, in front
of the Commercial Hotel. Friday af-
ternoon.
Turner was talking to Bert Nc
Dowell, who was sitting in machine,
when Mrs. Heavrin opened fire on
him. She fired three shots, one of
them passing through his clothes,
near the waist line. Turner wrench
ed the pistol from her hand. Turner
did not swear out a warrant for
his assailant's arrest.
The shooting grew out of a deposit
tion Turner recently gave, at Owens
boro, in the suit pending between his
divorced wife and Mrs. Heavrin. In
the deposition referred to Turner
stated that he had had immoral re-
lations with Mrs. Heavrin, and arous-
ed anger and indignation over his
statement resulted in the shooting

KILLING IN REPUBLICAN
OFFICE LAST FRIDAY

Friday was an eventful day in the
business office of the Hartford Re-
publican. when big killing occurred.
XIII" is the newspaper term for
cutting off the name of delinquent
subscriber from the mailing list. and
"a names were cut off on the occasion
mentioned.

newspaper was sort of haphazard
business. or rather haphazard want
of business. IL was the custom. once
name was on the mailing list to let
II stay ON until the subscriber or the
postmaster ordered IL stopped, but
the present managers of this enter
prise have reduced newspaper making
to a business basis. and henceforth
shall conduct it as such We appre-
ciate patronage. but only the patron
age of those who want the paper and
pay for it.
With some aptness for the work
and persistent industry, we have
made a newspaper that commands the
respect and interest of the public. as
is evidenced by the largely increased
patronage of the people. and hence
forth we shall conduct the business
end of the institution along the same
lines as those followed by the banker
or merchant. We do not want to
force the paper on single patron
who does not want IT. nor do we want
to send il to those who do not intend
TO pay for IL. The only evidence we
can have that subscriber wants the
Republican is the fact of his paying
for il within a reasonable time, and
when this is not done we shall follow
up the killing process.

Ii is splendid edition, both from
literary and an artistic point of

Mrs. McMullen and the publisher.
Mrs. McMullen makes speciality OF
this character of work, and many

DRUG STORES SHOULD BE
ALLOWED TO SELL LIQUOR

II is the view of T. NJ. Gilmore,
president of the National Model Lii
cense League. that the sale of liquor
for medicinal and sacramental pur-
poses canpot be prohibited under the
Constitution.
In a letter sent out this morning
to various publications, Mr.. Gilmore
gives expression to his understanding
of the situation by saying that there
prevails horrible misconception'
to the difference between prohibit
ton and regulation.
Mr.. Gilmore comedies that the sa-
loon must go. Also, he admits that
the sale of liquor for beverage pur-
poses Is doomed. But. he asserts,
the meaning of the law is being push
ed beyond its letter as to the sale
and use of liquor for medicinal pur-
poses. For such purposes, he de-
clares, the drug store cannot be pre-
vented from engaging in its sale. He
adds that the people OF America will
stand for no other Interpretation.
