The Columbia Daily Calendar

remains the only valuable daily pad
calendar. The calendar for 1913 is of
the same general design as that of pre-
vious years, consisting of 500 leaves,
one for every day in the year, and a
calendar for the entire year. The day
of the week, of the month, and of the
year are given, and on each leaf is a
short sermon ON the "Gospel of Out
doors, Health and Happiness" with
valuable hints on practical road max
ing. The leaves are so arranged that
there will be no stub left, and each one
can be referred to at any time during
the year. The pad is upon metallic
stand of ivory black, arranged so as to
rest upon the desk at convenient
angle. The pad matter, which in the
aggregate is enough to make book, is
all fresh and new, and is of more per-
tinent value than that of any previous
calendar. The calendar is issued by
the Pope Mfg. Co., of Boston, New
York and Chicago.

day and was sensational. At the time OF
the murder bottle of chloroform was
left by the murderer, but despite the

they struck clue, and at the hearing
today a witness was introduced who
swore that he bought bottle of chloro-
form for Wilcox Aug. "a, land drug clerk
swore he sold bottle exactly like the.
one In evidence. 1t was further shown
that Wilcox had about $500 on bis per-
SON a short time after the murder, which
is only $50 less than was stolen from the
Fet'ing cabin. The defense will try to
prove Wilcox was in Tacoma when the
murder was committed.

A Dastardly Outrage.
Albany Herald.


A dastardly outrage was committed by
some unknown miscreant Wednesday night
at the residence Of Mr.. Walter B. Peacock,
from which he and his mother narrowly
escaped suffocation.
Mr.. Peacock and his mother, an elderly
lady. reside in the eastern part of the city.
Wednesday night MIR. Peacock remained
late at the store, and his mother went to .
neighbors to stay until he returned. About
10 O'Clock he went to the neighbor's house
and accompanied his mother home. On en-
tering the bouse they were met with some
thing supposed to be the sitting odor of
chloroform, and his mother was overcome
by it. She screamed for help and her cries
attracted the attention of the neighbors.
Mr.. Peacock, fearing that the miscreant
was in hiding near by, fred several shots
from revolver, which brought a number of
men to the place. 1t is thought that the
deadly drug had been injected through the
keyhole, evidently with syringe, and no
doubt with the insane idea that the inmates
could be overcome for the purpose of mur-
der or robbery, or both. Suspicion points
to the party who committed the deed, and
the police will keep the suspect undsr close
Mr. Psscock's life has been lately threat
ened and the police think this may throw
some light on Wednesday nights outrage.
