SHAVE MAY COST
MAN HIS LIFE

PORTLAND, Ore, March 2S.-
Blood poisoning, following a shave
in a downtown barber shop, may
cost Harry Berger, an electrician
residing at $50 Davis street, his life.
Berger is now at st. Vincent's hos
pital, where he was removed from
his home last Wednesday. He is
reported to be still in danger.
For two weeks or more Berger
has suffered from an abscess on
his lower lip. Monday he was
shaved in barber shop. During
the operation the barber mad
vertently pricked the tiny abscess
with the point of a razor blade.
In few hours Berger's face was
badly swollen, and Dr. E. II. Tuck
er was summoned. The contact of
the razor blade with the abscess
had caused an infection, which de-
veloped into blood poisoning The
electrical worker was removed to
the hospital.

BY THOS. F. kISAR.

WATSEkA, ILL.,, March 2S.-
There was only platonic affec-
ton between DR.. Miller and myself.
1t is wicked lie to say that such
a friendship between man and
woman is impossible. DR.. Miller,
as the friend of my husband, took
me out riding, hunting and fishing.
My husband often urged me to go
and frequently went with us. as
did DR.. Miller's wife, sometimes, :"
sobs Banker Sayler's widow, in her
dismal cell in the Watseka Jail
my friendship for Peter Weast
of Peoria was the same as that for
DR.. Miller. He took me to Europe
and we stayed there several
months. Part of the time was spent
at the Paris exposition. My hus-
band did not object"
Platonic friendship! Lax domes-
tic relations. A husband in the
background; Innocent or not, it all
reads into the first chapter of
shuddering home tragedy-a trag-
edy that is also a lesson to human
men and and women everywhere.
In Crescent City, this county, are
two homes broken forever. A
husband done to death. A wife
and husband on trial for their
lives. An innocent girl who must
listen to the details regarding her
which gruelling prose
cution for murder will bring forth.
Crescent City is not a large place,
but it had it's best society" In It
moved the banker of the town,
Byron l.. Sayler, and his wife. Dr.
VIM. r. Miller was the most prom
inent physician of Crescent City,
tall and handsome and married.
He was a social lion.
One starry night last July there
was a terrible commotion at the
bankers beautiful home. There
were loud voices. curses, shots, and
when morning came DR.. Miller was
in the city Jail charged with the
murder of Byron Saylor, while Mrs.
Sayler occupied another cell, ac-
cused of being his accomplice.

SALAD AND STEAK
KILLED YOUTH

Ptomaine poisoning, administered
into his digestive organs in re-
past of shrimp salad and hamburg
er steak, caused the death Satur-
day night of ]. Waldo Johnson, an
Orpheum theater usher, aged 20
years. The. young man was strick-
en- with the effects of the poison
Friday night while at work, and DR..
Medley was called. An operation
was resoEed to at the Sacred
Heart hospital Saturday night in a
last effort to stave the usher's life,
but it only revealed the utter hope
lessness of the case. Decomposi-
ton of the vital organs is said TO
have already set in. Funeral
services were held this afternoon
and burial was made in Greenwood
cemetery, the ushers who formerly
worked with the deceased acting as
pallbearers.

Mrs. Sayler and her 74-year-old
father are charged with having
aided and abetted the murder. The
state will prove that while her, hus-
band lay dead for hours upon the
floor, his widow was busy caring
for the trifling wound inflicted up
on his slayer, and for him she pre-
pared cup Of coffee, unmindful Of
the fact that the father of her
young daughter lay murdered in
the next room.
She admits it, but adds: "'By'
was dead. l could not help him"
A year ago Lucy Sayler was a
beautiful, care-free, pleasure-seek-
ing young matron. Today she ap-
pears a jailworn, wrinkled and
broken woman. Then a petted So
cial leader, Queen Of Bohemia in

Watseka, where she frequently Wis
tied ;ynow Inundated. heart-broken,
Kissed by her former friends as she

they.were in distress and want; &C.

SUGGESTS
CITY GARAGE

Bills for the care of the city's
three autos have grown SO rapidly"
that Comptroller Farley suggests
that the council arrange to main
tain a garage of it's own. There
are now three automobiles in the.
service of the city-one for the,
board Of public works, one for the
health department and one for the
fire department. The city council
has ordered the purchase of an
other for the engineers and street
departments combined and a motor
cycle for the electrical inspector.
The addition of these machines
to the large bills for street car
tickets that are being paid makes
the city's transportation account
one that is inclined to startle he
average citizen when it is piled up
in one total. The first auto pur-
chased has cost for repairs and
operation as high as 5000 per
month. =

hand in the suffragette movement. AT
o'clock this afternoon, 800 suffra-
gettes and supporters had been arrest
ed.
Sixteen thousand militant suffra-
gettes are marching to the parliament
building. They are determined to
reach Premier Asquith, and to insist
upon the passage the woman
suffrage bills. There is great excite
ment at this hour.
When parliament opened this
morning under the leadership of Mrs.

fragettes reached the building, but
were finally driven away, when eight
hundred women and one man were
arrested.
This seemed to set the leaders of
the movement afiame, and calls for a

Miserable Weather And The Knight
Templar Banquet Blocked Varda-

Apparently the fates have conspired
to throw every possible hindrance in
the way of the organization of a Var.
daman Club in Hattiesburg, the sec
ond meeting which was to have been
held for this purpose at the city hall
last night having been prevented by
unavoidable and unexpected causes.
The first of these was the fact that
all during the afternoon and early
evening the most miserable weather
imaginable prevailed; the second was
the banquet of knights Templar, at
the Hotel Hattiesburg, which rem
dered it impossible for large num-
ber of Vardaman supporters to at
tend the meeting at the city hall,
Notwithstanding these hindrances,
however, a goodly number of citizens
were on hand at the appointed hour
but it was determined to again post.
pone the meeting to a more suitable
time.

FAIR MOVEMENT
TAKES ON SHAPE
Want CHARTER
Names of Prominent Hattiesburq Busi-
ness Men Appear on the List of
lncorporators.

That Hattiesburg's business men
propose to push the movement of a
South Mississippi fair, to be held in
this city next October, was assured
yesterday, when an application for
charter was filed with the secretary
of state.
AS stated in The News, the meeting
at the Commercial Club rooms Tues
day evening decided upon making the
fair not a county exhibition, but an
exposition for all South Mississippi,
and to designate the scope of the
proposition, the name of South Missis-
sippi Fair Association was adopted.
Capital stock was fixed at $4,000.
The incorporators as shown in the
application are: H. A. Camp, w. w.
Crawford, M. G. Field, B. M. Daven-
port, R. G. Hauenstein, NJ. L. Thomp-
son and A. Polk-names of men prom
inent in Hattiesburg.
The fair spirit seems to have taken
complete possession of the people of
Mississippi, and there are now fair
associations in about half the coun-
ties in the state.
The Harrison County Fair at Gulf
port, which came to an end Wednes-
day, was the first held in the seacoast
section of the state, and it was pro-
nounced a great success by every one
who visited it. Hattiesburg business
men who saw the Gulfport fair and
its success returned to the city and
gave the fair movement grelt boost
1t was planned Tuesday night the
shares will be $40 each, so that hun
dreds of residents of other counties
in South Mississippi may take an ac-
tive interest in making the fair a
success.
ut will not be local nor county
fair" says President Jackson Of the
Commercial Club. TT will be a fair
of all South Mississippi, and for
South Mississippi to show the outside
world what this wonderful section of
ours can do in the way of agriculture
and manufacture. Yes, we will start
work at once, and will put our fair
on a firm foundation from the start" F"
