NAVAL OFFICER KILLED
Children Stumble Over Dead Body
In The Woods.
Ha],timore, Jan. ^15.?7Found under
cii cuhistances that led authorities to
believe he had been murdered, thebody
of Ensign John M. Miller,
U. S. N,, of Bay City, Mich., was
found today in a thicket near
Odenten, Md., by two 11-year-old
girls.
The body of the naval officer, who
was discharged from St. Elizabeth'shospital,
Washington, last Friday,
was dicovered by the rfewo children*
lying on a pile of leaves.
Twenty feet away, county police
said, they found a rifle, buried in
the uqderbrush. It was of the same
caliber that had caused Ensingn Miller's
death. One shell had been dffi
charged. There was also indfca-*
tious of a struggle.
Ensign Miller was graduated from
the Naval academy in 1925. He was
a son of Dr. Maurice C. Miller of
Bay -City, Mich.
Phillis bowman an'd her twin sister,
Josephine, stumbled onto the
officer s body while they were strolling
through the woods' and, frightened
at the discovery, brought their
parents to the Bcene.
Authorities were notified, and they
admitted while the case might be a
suicide, there was strong suspicion
of murder, basing their theory on,
the point that the rifle, which caxlsed
Miller's death, had been hidden under
leaves and the fact that there
was evidence of a struggle.
| At the Naval academy tonight it
I was said that Ensign Miller had been
active in social activities and had
limited his athletic work to swimming,
although he was not a member
of the varsity team.
Three children were burned to
I death in a third story attic in .1

mice.

NEW LIBEL LAW
Would Live Newspapers More Latitude
In Case of Suit.
Columbia, Jan. 12.?Embodying the
main features of the North Carolina
etatute, a new libel law for South
Carolina was proposed in the house
today in a bill introduced by Representative
Dreher, of I^exington.
Although newspaper publishers of
the State have had under consideration
a suggested modernisation of
the law of libel, Dr. Dreher, said
;that he acted upon his initiative in
'fostering the measure.
The main features, he explained,
hre as follows:
Libel against any newspaper-notice
before auction; before any action,
either of civil or criminal, is
brought for the publication in a
newspaper or periodical of a libel,
the plaintiff or prosecutor shall at
least five days before instituting
such action serve notice in writing
upon the defendant, specifying the
article and the statements therein
which he alleges to be false and defamatory.
"Effect of publication in good
faith and retraction; if it appears
the trial that said article was published
in good faith, and that its
falsity was due to an honest mistake
of the facts and that there was
reasonable grounds for believing
that the statements in said article
!fWere true, and that within ten days
after the service of such notice a
full and fair correction, apology and
retraction was published in the
same editions or corresponding issues
of the newspaper or periodical
in which said article appeared, and
in as conspicuous place and type as
was said original article, then
plaintiff in such a case, if a civil action,
shall recover only actual damages,
and if ip a criminal proceeding
a verdict of guilty is rendered
on such of facts, the defendant sha'l
be fined a penny and the costs, and
no more."
i The bill was referred to the judiciary
committee.

Dr. Frank Crane Says:
WORRIES
If we will carefully take stock of
our woniment# we will find that
most of them are about things that
<lo not mutter. For a caption that
would he suitable at the head of the
lia>t of rules 1 would suggest, "What
Of It?
1 suppose 1 had the best mother
in the world. She is entitled to all
of my respect and esteem because aho
patiently put up with me all through
my childhood and cared for me until
the day of her death. I can remember,
however, that when I went
away from home in my younger days
she was always solicitious that 1
should wear clean underwear and
stockings because she said that, 'f
there was to be a train wreck and
my body was found, what would
people think if they found out 1 had
on dirty underwear, as though J
should care about the state of my
underwear when I was u corpse.
Much of the care and trouble thut
mothers take is of the Martha kind,
for Martha was "careful and troubled
about many things."
Suppose the children do litter up
the floor and pick the flowers in the
garden and tramp into the house with
muddy feet. Anybody who knows
children expects that and if they
don't know children t))ey are out of
luck.
ft might be all right to see that
your boys are washed behind the ears
and that their finger nails are clean,
but you should remember that while
these things should not be left undone
there are some more important
things. It is important, for instance,
that your children should always
think of you pleasantly and
gratefully. Your affection for your
son counts more with him than your
solicitude for his appearance.
It is well that the dandruff is
brushed off your husband's coat collar
and that his tie is right and his
boots are polished, but if you do
nothing else for him but call attention
to these peccadillos by and by
the idea will seep into his head that
you are nagging. What he wants
most of all is to keep his love and
esteem for you and you ought to
work at making yourself worthy of
that much more than to wprk at how
he will look to other people.
I do not mean to upderrate the little
attentions that should be bestowed
upon those we love, but I emphasize
the fact that these little
things are of small importance compared
with the greater matters of
life.
On one occasion it was said by a
wise man that the Pharisees paid
tithes of mint, anise and cumin, but
neglected the greater matters of the
law. So we m>mutinies make tlie
mistake of looking for flecks of du.it
when we *lu?uld ho admiring the
latKlscapc. *
It is all a mutter ??f proportion.
The princip;.! thing to l^arn in living
is how to value things, how to Ik*
particular about the essentials and
give small hood to the non-ooacntiala.
A Iniy recently turned up at Cutulina
Island after having been lost for
several day>. His mother broke
down and wept. "He's safe," some
one remarked. "I know," sobbed the
mother, "hut he has a dirty shirt on
right here in front of all of these
people."
