Made Final Demand.

There he blocked the entrance and de-
Inanded that Daisy accompany him
down town. She refused and attempted
to pass him when he grabbed her by the
arm, and drawing a revolver, began to
fire. 1t is thought that the first two
bullets lodged in the womans body, and
q struggle ensued. Locked il: an en-
brace, the two staggered into the
kitchen, where the Lawson woman inter
fered and got between them. Drawing
a razor, Burge slashed her arm, and
then placing the revolver against his
wife's head. deliberately fired twice.
Both shots took effect, the first lodging
in the rear of the wonan'S neck, and the
second penetrating the base OF the jaw.
Daisy dropped to the floor and died in
StantlV and painleSSly.

Went After the Mother.

Burge then ran out the rear entrance
and went straight to the home of his
rI7other-in-law, Mrs Mary Jordan, who
lives nearly twelve blocks away, at
1102 o Street northwest. Loading his
revolver as he ran, he stopped outside
the door and called Mrs Jordon- She
came to the doorway and Burge with
out warning, opened fire. Two of his
bullets took effect: the first striking the
woman in the hip, and the second in
hicting a slight wound in the jaw.
Burge advanced as he fired, and had
reached the entrance when he was
grabbed by his brother-in-iaw., Frank
Jordan, who was awakened by me
shooting, and who came 10 ms motner ;
a Struggle followed in which Burge
claims that Jordan took his revolver
times Jordan declares that the shoot
ing was accidental, and Burge shot
himself in the struggle for the posses
sion OF the weapon
Policeman Murphy, of the Second pre-
cinct, arrived while the shooting was
still in progress, and narrowly escaped
whizzed past his head. and broke the
glass in transom over the door Both
men were arrested without difficulty,
Jordan being taken TO the Second pre-
cinct, where he is at present confined,
and Buree to the homeopathic HoSpi-

Result of Wounds.
One Of the bullets lodged In Burge's
arm. another in his leg, and the third
grazed his forehead AT the hospital
this morning it was reported that none
OF the wounds are of a serious nature,
and the man will soon recover. Mrs.
Jordan was taken TO the Emergency

a low, but not serious condition
Both the revolver and razor used by

lice The former was obtained at the

NUNS FmsT POWDERED HAIR.
Fashionable Danes. Struck by Novel
Eject, Adopt tho Custom.


Tho custom Of powdeFlng the hair
dates back as far as the sixteenth cen
tury aud was first introduced by the
nuns In French converts. Those who
had occasion 20 leave the eloisteFs Tor
any reason were wont 20 powder their
hair so as 10 make Il appear gray and
give them a venerable look The fash
ionable danes were 90 struck with the
novel effect OF white powder on dark
hair that they soon appropriated the
device as one Of the arts OF the world
ly toilet. Out OF this grew the use OF
tlnts IN tho hair. The Roman women
often used blue powder and later In
1860, Empress Eugenie set the fashion
OF using gold powder,
Rome under the empire and Greece
during the time Of PeTieles were seized
with a mania for golden hair. The
bellies and fops Of the day devised sew
sral methods whereby black locks
might be changed TO golden yellow,
but bleaching did not always succeed.
Consequently quite a trade was estab-
lished with the faiF-haiTed tribes be-
yond the Alps, who sold their locks to
Latin merchants 10 be worn on the
heads OF Roman dandies.
Many a dame dampened her raven
tresses in the strongest Of muriatie

used I've and afterwards annointed
their heads with oil made from goat
fat. ashes Of the beesh tree and GER
tain yellow flowers.
The itinerant barber, whip passed

bearer
When wigs were in vogue the Roman
danes had in their wardrobe as many
wigs as eoetumes, and when the choice
Of a wig was made it was necessary to

that the slaves were specially charged
