Night of Horror.
Mrs. Smith told police officials of a
night of horror, at the culmination of
which, early this morning, she shot
Smith with a small revolver as he attacked
her once more. She told howshe
then stepped over his prostrate
form, called a servant, and, returning
because she had feared Smith was
not dead, had shot him again with
his own pistol, leaning over to place
the w-eapon close to his head.
W. A. Moore, tyrs. Smith's former
husband, went to the house at 4
o'clock this morning, summoned bv a
servant at the behest of Mrs. Smith,
who feared for Mildred's safety.
Moore took his daughter and went
away without going into the house.
Mrs. Smith said that as Moore 1
drove awray Smith tried to shoot him,
threatening to kill both man and girl,
but that she struggled with him and
prevented him firing the pistol he !
pointed at them.

cure a policeman to accompany him ]

tion and said "I know I ought to have '
killed Smith myself, but I hadn't the 1
heart to do it." !

Mother Refuses to Discuss Indict- \
ment Against Harry. j
Philadelphia, Jan. 14.?Mrs. Mary
Copley Thaw, mother of Harry K.
Thaw, who is recovering at a hospital
here from self-inflicted wounds,
arrived here today and took rooms at 1
the hospital. Thaw still is in a
stupor and weak from the loss of
blood and his mother was allowed to 1
see him for only a brief period. She 1
seemed very much affected, but phy- 5
sicians assured her that he was in '
no danger and that they expected '
him to leave the hospital within two ]
or three weeks. "Don't worry, Har- (
ry," she told him, "I'll take care of j
you." (
Mrs. Thaw refused to discuss the J
indictment against Thaw charging 5
him with kidnapping and assaulting 1
Frederick Gump, Jr., the nineteen- 1
year-old Kansas City youth. Frank 1

attorneys, however, said there was 1

AVIATORS LOST. 1
j
Automobile Parties Searching Deserts
for Army Officers.
San. Francisco, Jann 13.?Five ci- ^
vilian automobiling parties, with five
days' provisions, were ploughing the
sand wastes of Northern Mexico today
in a rain storm, hunting for
Lieut. Col. Harry G. Bishop and Lieut.
W. A. Robertson, Jr., two 1
army aviators lost in the desert without
food or water since Wednesday.
""No news yet," Col. W. E. Wilder
telegraphed Western division headquarters
tonight. The message added
that the Mexican consul at Calexico
had telegraphed the governor of
Sonoro to order out a troop of cavalry
to aid in the search* Mounted
soldiers under orders of Governor
Cantu, of Lower California, are already
in the search and the American
commander at Yuma has been asked
to cooperate.
Brig. Gen. Henry M. McCain, adjutant
general of the army, telegraphed
Western department headquarters
here tody from Washington that information
had reached him indicating
that Bishop and Robertson had
been forced to land about 100 miles
south of the border.
Costs More to Hone a Razor.
As further evidence of the futility
of trying to dodge the ever increasing
cost of living, it is interesting to note
that hereafter it will cost one more
to Shave one's self. At a meeting of
the 'Master Barbers' association it
was decided to increase the price of
honing razors from 25 to 35 cents.
Hones that formerly retailed at 60
cents now cost $1, the barbers say.?

Minnesota farmers in four years
have spent about $20,000,000 for

AUTOMOBILE KILLS CHILI>.
Abie Savitz Meets Instant Death
When Struck by Car.
St. Matthews, Jan. 13.?Abie, the
9-year-old son of S. Savitz, was run
down and instantly killed here this
afternoon about 4 o'clock by F. L.
Wienges's automobile. The accident
occurred near the railway station.
Mr. Wienges was on his way home,
being accompanied by his children.
Mr. Wienges states that just as he
was passing near the power house the
child suddenly emerged from oenina
a wagon. He made an effort to
swerve his car but he was so close
upon the child that it was impossible
to clear him, whether he struck the
child or ran over him Mr. Wienges
says he does not know. The impact
of the car seems to have been about
the head and face.
The child was immediately taken
into the car and hurried up town
to medical aid but upon examination
it was found that death had followed
closely upon the wound.
From all particulars it appears
that the killing was purely accidental.
Mr. Wienges is an expert driver.
He is greatly downcast on account
of the tragedy.
The remains were taken to Charleston
tonight for interment in the
Jewish cemetery.
THRILLING RIDE IN THE DARK.
Passenger Hung to Vestibule by His
Arms for 30 Minutes.
A young man bound for Wallingford,
Conn., had a thrilling ride on
a Pennslyvania railroad express train
the other night.
He got off the train at Lancaster,

station the train was moving. He
jumped and caught the hand irons
on the last car, thinking he could
make some one hear him. By the
time he was through pounding on the
floor the train was running so fast
that he was unable to get off with
safety.
The train made the 29 miles between
Lancaster and Coatsville in 30
minutes, and during that time all
the passenger's weight was on .his
irms, with his feet hanging.?Philaielphia

SHE "SWIMS AND KEEPS THIN."
Woman Braves Lake Michigan's Cold
Water to Hold Her Job.
There are two things one of which
i woman usually does when she begins
to grow fat. One is to laugh
md grow fatter, the other is to fight
to grow thin. Miss Hallie Piper has
chosen to fight. When her doctor
prescribed plenty of fresh air and
:old baths she decided to get all the
fun possible out of the cure. Each
lav, no matter what the weather, she
puts on her one-piece bathing suit
md takes a plunge at Clarendon
beach. Afterwards she builds a fire
moVoo mffpp and roasts marsh
iliU
mallows.
"It isn't pride that makes me want
:o stay thin, it's business," Miss Piper
said as she bent over a beach fire.

He told me I was getting
too plump and would lose my position
unless I reduced. I'd rather lose
flesh than my job."?Chicago Herald.

' BILLIONS OF GERMS
Bamberg People Should Learn How
To Combat Them
You can fight off the billion of
jerms which you swallow.
How about the uric acid which your
own system creates?
Can you conquer that, too?
Yes, if your kidneys work right.
But if they don't backache, dizziness
or discolored urine
Soon warn you of graver peril.
You must live more simply?
That's what Bamberg has found.
