KILLED BY HER CHILD.
Paragould, Ark., .Ian. JO. One
of the most deplorable and shock
ing accidents that lia^ happened in
the history of Paragon id occurred
Wednesday evening at 7 o’clock,
when Mrs. Flora Fuller, the wid
owed mother of three little daugh
ters, was accidentally shot to death
I by one of her children at her
| home on Cumberland Street. Sit
ting by her fireside a pistol shot
rang out and the contents of a
thirty-eight calibre pistol went
crashing through her brain. Death
resulted almost instantly. The
I little girl who accidentally fired
the fatal shot, saw the blood trick
ling down her mother's cheek and
immediately realized what an aw
ful thing laid happened. She
dropped the smoking weapon to
the floor, horror-stricken, a:'d be
gan screaming.
Drs. Dickson and Scott were

woman was dead before they
reached the home.
SENATOR HINKLE’S
ANTI-PISTOL BILL
Provides For Imprisonment in Coun
ty Jail in Addition to Fine For
Carrying Pistol.
Little Rock, .Ian. 21. Senator
Hinkle of Indepeneence county is
very anxious to have his bill
I amending the laws regulating the
| carrying of concealed weapons j
passed. Several bills to amend
the present laws on the subject
have already been introduced in
j the senate. Senator Hinkle’s bill
provides a penalty for carrying a
pistol of a tine of $5 and not more
than $100 for the first offense, and
for the second offense imprison
ment, in addition to the fine, of
not to exceed sixty days in the
i county jail. Senator Hinkle serv
ed for four years as sheriff of his
! county.
In speaking of his bill, he said:
“The bill which I have introduced,
1 think, will discourage the prac
tice of carrying pistols. What 1
am seeking to do is to have a law
passed that will prevent the carry
ing of pistols by the irresponsible
negroes and the ‘bullies' who think
| they are ‘bad men," and are look
ing for trouble, and also to pro
vide a sufficient penalty to deter
the young men who think it is a
smart thing to carry a pistol. In
such cases these youths are often
of good family, and the fathers of
the boys who are convicted of car
rying a pistol usually have to pay
the boys' tines. 1 do not think
I the laws should be made too strict,
as in such a case, if the )tenuity is
excessive, the laws might not be
enforced so well as they will be
with a sufficient penalty.'1
