mystery surrounding James Mcguire, the
man arrested in the Dollar Savings Bank
at Bellaire last April. has been cleared up
BY Prosecuting Attorney Cowen of st.

Mcclure was arrested following what
seemed to be bold plan to rob the bank.
He entered the bank and made inquiries
about renting the has 1ment to start re-

pocket and he was arrested. A search OF
his room at the Globe Hotel was made
and there was found suit case contain

ton of the grand jury.
Nothing more was heard of the case
until the grand jury made its report.

to Belmont county in the hope Of secur-
ing evidence in the Stevens and DeNine
murder case. The sensational arrest was
merely part of the plan In the hope that
when Mcclure" was thrown into jail
II would lead to a warm friendship With
the men being held for an investigation.
The plan failed, as Devine and Stevens
refused to fraternize with the pseudo
bank robber.
The most remarkable part of the case il
the fact that none Of the officials of Bel

rest nor Mayor Wassmann. who held him
for the grand jury-knew that Mcclure"
was other than desperate criminal.

TO WIN AFFECTION
OF HUSBANDS FAMILY

bride who lives near her husbands
relatives has reason for exercising tact,
for their priority claim on her husband
is too strong to be ignored, and it takes
quick thinking on the part of his wife to
remember this Also, as soon as she mar
ries she has clearly defined place as a
member OF the family. To fill this with
assurance. but without responsiveness. re-
uuires more experience or understanding
than the average girl is likely to nave
and in the purposes that ensue reel
i'm IS arise that only time may obliterate.
Rv assurance without positiVeness is
meant the ability TO convey the girls own
consciousness Of her position without pre-
summing upon il. \ mans mother or his
sister wishes the new member to act as
though she felt herself one Of them, but
not to impress them with the fact. AZ
gressiveness Of manner Will certainly Gre
ate a most unpleasant atmosphere, and
any attempt on the part OF a young wife
to take precedence over her mother-ln-
law will make trouble that a lifetime may
not smooth away. If the mother-in-law
is not one Of those who yields OF her own
accord she may do so later because she Is
Obliged to. If it is merely sense of OBJ
legation which prompts her taking second
place she is more than apt to do it grudG-
ingly or with such Observation-Disclosures that
what she abdicates brings no pleasure to
her daughterin-law.
Truth to tell, more is accomplished with
most older women by using tact and being
willing ito wait for changes. 1t Is not an
easy matter for one who has been the only
Mrs Smith in the family for twenty-five
or forty years to have second and
younger Mrs Smith brought in. The older
woman may feel herself pushed to old
age when her feelings are anything but
aged. She becomes secondary person
whether she will or not. by the mere fact
of her seniority, and younger woman
who can make her mOther-in-laW feel that
as an older woman she is quite as I'M
portant (only differently sol as she used
to be has won half the battle with her
husbands family.
This conquest may be by exercising DEL
ereuce with some members and consulting
the opinions of the older ones. Should they
coincide with her own, so much the pet
ter; but if they do not, she may nave ner
own way and Introduce many changes just
by putting her ideas gently, with evident
regard for the others. Tactfully managed,
the older woman. nine times out OF ten,
will be willing to concede the fact of the
Younger woman's superiority of claim and
agree cheerfully without any resentment.
A young married woman who remem-
bers that more is ga ined by courtesy and
tolera ton than by high-ha nded manners
will be much better OFF, not only with
her ..in-Iaws," but with her husband.
For however much he may critic1se his
own family, he is averse to such criticism
by his wife. But if she can manager them
successfully his admiration and affection
| for her are likely to be much strength

The odd-looking hat trimming that is
finding much favor is a long band made
from breast feathers. This is passed
around the crown of the hat, ending in a
bow made from the band, the short ends
being formed by couple of wings. Such
a decoration must of necessity be service
able. and one even unskilled in sewing
could attach it. The bands come in all

bought to match.

Ryder sends for her, and Is SO cap
