A SENSATION IN FLOYD.
Charged with Attacking Their Step
MOther-BOth sides.

FLOYD, VA, May S.-(Special.)-Quite
q sensation was created In the neigh
borhood of Turtle Rock. this county, on
Thursday morning, when II become
known that there had been an attack
made on Mrs. F. V. Snead at her home
the night before. Mrs. Snead is the
widow Of F. V. Snead. who died snort
time since, possessed of considerable es-
tate. which, by will. he gave to his
widow and her infant children for ten
years. then to be divided, the widow and
her children and two sons by former
marriage sharing. 1t is said that their
sons-Abe and Tom-are very much dis
satisfied with the will. and are talking
Of contesting II. According to Mrs.
Snead's version of the affair, on We'd
nesday night Tom Snead, who Is
about 20 years old. was at home
sleeping upstairs, and Mrs. Fisher,
neighbor woman, was with Mrs. Snead
down stairs. During the night some one
approached the house. and attempted TO
effect an entrance, but was refused ad-
mittance by Mrs. Snead. Tom came
down stairs, however, and said some one
was upstairs trying to kill him. About
that time, Mrs. Snead says. Abe Snead,
disguised entered the room and com
menced firing at her with a pistol, and

tinued to fire, but none of the shots TOOK
effect. Mrs. Fisher came to the aid OF
Mrs. Snead with a pair of tongs, and
Mrs. Enead Selling an axe. the two wo-
men fought off their assailants, infict-
ing a slight wound on Tom Snead's hand,
and also striking him on the back of
the head with the axe. Early Thurs
day morning warrants were sworn out
for the Snead boys, who were arrested.
and had a hearing before Squire Ro-
bertson. The hearing before the Justice
resulted in the acquittal of Abe Snead.
he having proved an alibi. Tom Snead
was sent on to court and bailed In the
sum of 800.
Tom Snead's version of the affair is
that neither he nor his brother made. an
attack on their stepmother, but on the
other hand. he was set upon by band
OF men who entered the house and
commenced shooting, and that as quickly
as he could do so he made his escape
from the house without shoes. hat, or
clothes: that the first thing he knew seve-
raj men were i'm the room commanding
him to hold up his hands. and that he
received the wounds from the axe In the
melee that followed. it being dark in
the house and the women not seeing
whom they were striking. The whole az
fair will no doubt be fully investigated by
the grand jury and the truth brought out

The Domestic Help Question.


The question implies belief that it
is possible to accomplish this so-much.
to-be' desired result; yet the fact res
mains that the average farmers wife
is drudge. How shall we reconcile
these seemingly conflicting ideas?
Somebody or some circumstances must
be to blame. Does not the greatest
part OF the trouble lie in the fact that
it is attributed to circumstances instead
of to the really guilty parties? So far
as the domestic help question is con-
cerned we may as we'll ignore that from
the outset, for to obtain hired help for
the farmhouse is, as rule. an i'm
possibility, and must continue to be so.
The class from which help must come
will not leave the better wages and
shorter hours of the cities: they would
be lacking in common sense should
they do SO. Wages are even now the
most taxing burden on the farm purse,
both indoors and out, so that it stands
to reason that the farmer will seldom
be able to pay higher wages than at
present; nor will the exigencies of the
work permit as short hours as the
village housewife requires of her help
ers. Practically, then, this question
is settled, aud to beat our brains against
this blank wall is not the part of wis
dom.
The laundry work bears upon the
house mother more heavily than any
other one item. With this weight
lifted, she could possibly stand erect.
instead Of feeling that her back was
always bent under the awful burden;
one-third of her time-practically-
would be saved. and one-third the
drudgery lifted from the aching back
could she be relieved of this. Where
farmhouses are reasonably close to-
gether, cooperative wash room is by
no means beyond the possibilities: il
needs only that farmers should be
made to believe it practicable.
Just here comes in that guilt o.
which mention was previously made
Too often both the farmer and his wife
think that to farm life itself must bt
charged the difficulties, the over work
the drudgery. No greater mistake
could be made; for indoors (dare I sa!
it?) one-half the drudgery, or yer!
nearly, is due to their own lack of care
full planning, abetted by his thought
lessness aud her lack Of firm and pleas
. ant insistence on certain rights which
It is utter imposition (were it not s.
thoughtless) not to give her. I kno,
whereof / speak when say that tn
most careful arrangement possible, ant
reasonable supply Of real labor savers
will make about half the difference il

The matter Of stationary tubs-an
clever man could make them were h

into more skilled hands-is one i
