Nelren. injSilton, and his fifteen-y^r- old son, Roebrt is a prisoner at the F!rst police station charged with the slayihg of his father. WMle there is no denial of the shooting, nor anything that wouid lead to believe the boy fir ed in self-defence, (Coroner Tay lor, will at 10:30 o’clock this morning hold an inquest in his office in the city hall. The incidents that led up to the killing, as learned last night, were these: The elder Currie upon arriving home from his place of «mployment, shortly af ter 6 o’clock yestsrday evening, and looking over the food pre pared for supper by Mrs. Currie, complained of its quality and quantity. This led to a reply Mrs. Currie, and more heated words fell from the lips of Cur rie, who it was said had jErp:«rn fierce in Ms anger. He seized his wife, and it was said by mem bers of the family began to beat her. , , „ ^ Just at that time theboj, Rob ert, arrived upon the scene. He had just left his place of employ- ment, too, and was ready for his supper. He worked as an ap prentice at the printing otuce of John W. Fergusson, and was considered a miid mannered youth. Upon going into the room where his father was belaboring his mother, the boy grew frant ic. He ran to an adjoining room, seized a big Swiss rifle, which bad been in the family f or years, raised it and fired. The bullet, a forty-one, struck the elder Currie in the right side of his neck, piercing the jugvlar vein. He fell over to the table, clutch ed at a chair, dropped to the floor and almost immediately expired. The report of the gun, together with the screams of Mrs. Currie and the cries of several of the smaller children, a great crowd of people—neighbors, and those who were passing on their way home from the various shops and factories in the neighborhood. Bicycle Officer Matt and Po- iicemeii Samuels and Maloney ar rived on the seen?. There lay the dead father, blood flowing from the awful wound in his neck, while calmly, almost pathetically, stood the youth who had in his love for his mother sought to stay the band of the father even to killing him.’ The youngster made no resis tance. He accompanied the of ficer to the station, where he was lodged in one of the upper rooms, where later he declined to talk to any one, expressing the wish to be left alone. “1 will not talk with any one tonight,” he said. “In the morn ing I may talk, but let me alone now. I want to sleep.” So he was allowed to sleep, or, at least, he was left alone. Tjie Currie family is a large Baptist Omrcb. t«v. s. L PaKtr. Morning Services, 11:00 a. m.

Far- sijrhted (5erman statesmen ana economists have ueaiized the f^t that a state is bwsnd to deciine if it educaites only the men at the top ai>d neglects the m^ses. Gtermany spends as much» if i?pt more, than we 3o on higher edu cation; but it lays an equal stress upon the scientiic training of the average man—the working man, In (Germany vocational training is compuJeory; for, al though the boy Baay leave the regular school at fourteen, he is compelled, in most of the Ger man states, to go to a continua tion school for fmm two to four years longer. The hours for this supplementary schooling va ry in different localities—from four to six in the afternoon, or two mornings a week, or one day a week, as the c^e may be; but the boy must go to school, and it is the duty of his employ er to see that he does so. , If he attends an evening school, the employer is compelled to allow him a certain number of hours each day away from his work. These continuation schools, al though tho most impoitant. fac tor in the training not only of boys, but of men and women, for thdr vocations, are only one raj^cation of an unparalleled, syitem of industrial ^ucatioh. Here in America we have di rected our effoi’ts toward the perfecting of machinery, leaving the hunian being, the most im portant and costly factor in pro duction, to pick up his training as best he might. Our higher institutions of learning and our admirable schools of technology turn out trained and efficient or ganizers of labor; but these gen erals have to deal with a raw and undisciplined army. Mean while, from all parts of our coun try comes a demand for skilled labor that is not met by the sup ply; and we import European workmen trained to a higher standard of skill than our own. One of our great national fail ures is a lack of thoroughness— and the time is fast coming when, if we mean to hold our own, we can no longer be slipshod. We, too, must educate our workers, —From “Vocational Training in Our Public Schools,’^ Mary Jose phine Mayer, in the American Review of Reviews for April. nine children, six boys. The years old; the one. There are three girls and youngest is four elder in the twenties. Mr. Cun ie was not considered a man .of bad habits, nor had any of his acquaintance credited him with a taint of heartlessness. He was not a drinking man/ nor, so far as the outside world knew, had he made it a habit of assaulting his wife. In a word, the f^ily, from all appearances, s^med to be as happy as any in simile circumstances, and hence it is hard for those who know the Curries to believe that the family could have been so sud denly and tragically sundered. The boy was not a wild young ster as that term is generally ap plied. He was looked upon rath er as something of a model for other lads look up to. He work ed and helped take care of the large family, and was generally presumed to be something of a comfort to his mother. They stood well in the commu nity, and nothing could have pained and astonished the East End folks more thah the homi cide which sent a father into e- ternity and a young son into the shadow of prison.

Hard Tcssle With a Mbk (Bakersville Kronicle) Our Bandana correspondent says. "Rose Ellis, Stocks, John son and Frazier Willis were hunt ing near Ledger Thursday morn ing and found a mink track in the snow. They followed the track three or four miles, finding the animal denned in a rock cliff ^ck of the Gouge mountian. They smoked it out, and when the mink appeared Ellis caught it and the aninml got his finger in its mouth and he could not turn loose, but had to fight. He continued chokirg the mink until it was dead, ana still his finger could not be released until its mouth was prizcsd open with a nail. When the fight was over Ellis was as bloody as a bull pup at a bear fight. Dr. D. J. Gouge gave them $4. for the hide,” Teirilile Picture oOnfiering Clinton, Ky.—Mrs. M. C. Me Elroy, in a letter from Clinton, writes:" For six years, I was a sufferer from female troubles. I could not eat, and could not stand on my feet, without suffering great pain. I had lost hope. After using Cardui a week, I began to improve. Now I feel better than in six years.” Fifty years of success in actual practice, is positive proof, furnished by those who have used it, that Cardui can always be relied on for re lieving female weakness and di*>ease.

Douglasville, Tex. — "Five years ago I was cnitght in the rain at the wrong tin.ie: ” writes Edna Rutherford, of ncmglas- ville, “and from th i time, was taken with dumb chills and fe vers, and suffered more than I can tell. I tried everything that I thought would helj.i, and had four doctors, but got no releif. I took Cardui, the woman’s tonic.

Cardui has donie me more good than any medicine I ever took in my life." You need not be afraid to tak* Cardui. It is no new experiment.
