Hampton, Dec. 20.-Henry Bree lan, a farmer, about 23 years of age, living near Cummings, was shot and instantly killed by his cousin and brother-in-law, Hurley Harvey, yes terday afternoon about 3 o'clock on the public road near Hickory Hill. The young man who did the shoot ing is 20 years of age. He was ar rested by the deputy sheriff shortly after the shooting occurred and is now in the county jail, pending the preliminary trial which will be held on Thursday. The prisoner's statement is, in ef fect. as follows: "My brother, Till man, his wife and myself were all in the same buggy on our way home from Lord Stanley's home where my brother had just married a daughter of Mr. Stanley. A short distance from Hickory Hill we met Henry Breelan and his father, also in a bug gy, approaching us. Henry Breelan jumped from his buggy and came running in our direction cursing and threatening our lives. My brother and I got out of our buggy and as we did so Breelan slashed at me with a large knife, but I evaded him and begged him not to attack us. IIe then cut at my brother, cutting a long slash in his coat. I then ran to the bugg, got my pistol and shot him three times. My brother and I then got in our buggy, leaving Breelan in tle care of his father and went on hiome. I told my people what hati halppened and had started to Mamp toil to give myself up when I met the dlepuity sheriff on the way who Irougliht me to Ilampton and placed ile in jail. There had been bad blood ex sting betIween us for some time and Breelan had threatened my life and my brother Tillinan's life on more than one' occasion. I could not say whether Hreelan was drinking or not, though lie appeared to be sober. Neither Tillman nor I had been drinking." COLDS NEED .ITTENTION.

Death and Suffering. London, Dec. 15.--Conditions in in vaded Servia are described to the Lon don press by Col. Govaars of the Sal vation Army, who has Just completed a six months' tour of that country in the interests of his brganization. The country he speaks of lies in the north west, from which the Austrians were driven out in their first invasion. One village, which a year ago had 2,300 inhabitants and 350 houses, now has 1,100 inhabitants and only 126 whole houses, according to Col. Go vaars. Of the other houses, 90 were entirely destroyed and 134 so badly demaged as to be uninhabitable. Even those surviving had to be consider ably patched up. This village had for nierly over 1,000 draught oxen. Now there are two. Out of 2,000 cows only 14 remain, and 27 sheep and goats have to make up for 3,200 or more. Theer were formerly 70,000 chickens and 17,000 pigs, but only a dozen or so now take their place. In this same community, said Col. Govaars 46 families were wiped out entirely, and families formerly con sisting of 30 or more members are now represented by one or two. The colonel met a widow who was the sole survivor of a family of 2S. When the Austrians occupied the place many civilians were killed in the slielling other were take naway as prisoners and an epidemic swept away 85 of the refugees who returned after the Austrian occupation. "When I reached the district." he continlued. "the neople were living on corn neal aid unripe fruit. chiefly pluns. No other food was obtainable, except by the few who lived near mil ita ry pests and could depiend on the charity of the soldiers. "In another v:lago I met the case of a woman whose hushand had been killed in battle, whi!e starvation and disease left her only one child otu of seven. Another wonian I talked with was the sole survivor of a family of 11 I passd deserted houses and when I asked what had become of the people, I heard but the one answer, 'Died out.' Miles and miles of rich land lie absolutely waste, covered with weeds and thistles. The great plum orchards of the district were bearing fruit at the time of my visit, but there was no one to pick and dry it. Formerly the farmers used to distill plum brandy on their prem ises, but all of the cupper stills \ ere t,aken away by the invaders. There was no labor atid no illeans oftrans portationi.

New~ York, Dec. :2l.--Col. E. M. I Iouse, confiiiential adviser of P'resi (lent Wilson, announced late todlay that he will shortly sail for Eu rope at the reqiuest of 1the piresidenit. C'ol. H ouise dleclaredl the sole pur pose of the trip would be to dleliver to Certain American ambassadors infor mation regarding this government's attitude on various ntraialmat ters now pending, lie denied emphat ically that his trip will in any way be a peace mission. Col. Ilouse said lie expected to sail from here within the next two weeks and probably wouldl be in Eturope about six or eight weeks. "I am going to Europe at the re quest of the presidenit and the secre tary of state for the purpose of taking Information to sonie of otur ambassa (Iors," he said,. "in order that they may have a mnore intimate knowledge of this government's attitmide regard lag certain phases of international qiuestions and in order to obtain from them their point of view on these matters. "It is not advisable to bring home at this time any of our ambassndors from the bellIgerent countries. It has therefore been impossible to convey by cable quite the correct atmos phere." 9 WAR UPON PAIN! Pain is a visitor to every home and usually it comes quite tunexpectedly. IBut you are prepIared for every emer gency if you keep a .small bottle of Sloan's Liniment handy. It is the greatest pain killer ever discovered. Simply laid on the skin-no rubbing required-it drives the lpain away. It is really wonderful. Mervin H. Soister, Berkeley, Cal., writes: "Last Saturday, after tramp ing around the Panama Exposition with wet feet, I came home with my neck so stiff that I couldn't turn. applied Sloan's Liniment freely and went to bed. To my surprise, next morning the stiffness had almost dis appeared, four hours after the second applicatipn I was as good as new." March, 1915.
