ANdRY HUSBAND SHOOTS
THROUGH WIFE'S HEADGEAR

PARIS, Sept. IAN excited couple
entered a police station, followed by a
man whom a policeman was holding
tightly by the arm. The prisoner was
her husband, and the third member of
the party was a man to whom she had
been talking in the street when her
husband came UP and fred four shots
at her.
"If it had not been for my hat" ex-
planned the young woman, II should
have ben killed"
In fact, when her hat, beauty Of
the cartwheel type, was examined 1t
was found to contain two bullets. From
the explanations given by the three
persons, it turned out that the hus-
band, who was away most OF the cay
had been informed that his wife passed
much of her time in conversation with
other men.
The anonymous letter which gave him
tnis Information stated exactly at what
noint Of the city and in what cafe the
woman might be seen at certain hours
of the day. The husband took re-
yolyer and went to the spot There he
found his wife. She was walking in
the stree, with man whom he did not
know. The moment for using his re-
volver had come, and he discharged 1t
four times. At the fifth tatempt 1t
missed fire.
BY that time policeman had him by
the arm and prevented further shoot
ing. Two of the shots had gone astray,
but the other two took effect, as was
afterward learned at the police station.
But, luckily, they went no further
than the woman's hat, in the rim OF
which the two bullets were firmly Inn
bedded. When 1t was all over the wife
was rather glad her hat had saved her
husband from hAing prosecuted for
murder.

IMPORTED DOGS SHOW
THEY ENJOY ARREST
Glad to Be Away from Sausage
Makers Kennels

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Sept. AL
though it is the belief of many fanciers
that animals, and particularly dogs,
feel disgrace as keenly as humans,
there are no two happier CANNES In
all Connecticut than Couple of
beagles who were arrested at the home
of Charles Muller in Stratford.
Muller has nice taste in sporting
dogs, and recently purchased four
couples of English foxhounds and two
couples of beagles. He installed them
in a kennel. For day or two all went
well, but soon the hounds and beagles
began to wall plaintively at night and
neighbors began to suspect that they
were obsessed with some secret sor-
row.
The music of hounds, which Is OF
minor and doleful quality even when
the animals are running to- breast
scent, Is familiar melody to residents
of Stratford, and ears atuned were
quick to realize that Mullers hounds
were in the grip of some premonition
or disaster. There was note in their
music as though they had lived lives
of incredible hound evil and profigacy
and were now lamenting because fate
that they could not defect or avert was
descending upon them in their sins.
Then an investigation of Mullers
discovery made that he is employed in
a sausage factory in this city.
No man in Connecticut loves a dog
better than Sheriff Charles Stagg. He
visited the Muller place and finding
that their owner had not taken out
licenses for one couple OF beagles'
promptly placed them under arrest on
charges of being at large without
proper registration.
Arrived at the pound the beagles cell
ebrated their new estate with a burst
of eXuberant melody that was nKe
celestial music. But at Muller's place
the other beagles and the hounds are
filling the night with dismal melan-
choly, led by one hound who, while
he chants mournfully at the stars, lifts
toward them face illuminted with the
radiance of true repentance-a hound

MEN ARE NOW
THE FAD ON BROADWAY
Supply of YeIIoW-Haired Fellows
Not Sufficient for Demand
of Theaters

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-Quotations
of peroxide at the Broadway uruS
stores, and even the price Of tow ana
fax in the wholesale district, went up
with a rush yesterday when d com
plaint was issued from Charles From
mans offices that there was a snort
age of blond men in the Rialto chorus
market. Hepner. the wigmaker, VINO
Is now Frlangers right bodyguaro,
was off the Job last evening, ana II
was said he was laying in speclal
stock of excelsior.
The Broadway impresar1os Oh nusi-
cal comedy are always having trouple
with the chorus crop. Two years aso
an epidemic of bowlegs appeared
among the girls. Later the plue,eye9a "a
variety of chorus sprite had vanished
from the market. Recently it was said
that the only really pretty girls were
to be found in Chicago. This last ue-
liverance came from Jake Shubert, and
Jake ought to know.
Tnvestigation revealed that Thomas
REYNOLDS, who stage manages MT;
Frohmans musical comedies, started
the latest panic. Reynolds begged that
the name of the musical comedy ne Is
now organizing be suppressed. HIS
renuest isn't granted. The name OF
the piece that pines for yelloW-halreu

Of the peroxide variety, sald ne
"haye agreed not to work for less than
$40 a week-$10 above the prevailing
market price. The reason is that the
demand is unprecedented and II Is
chiefly due to the changing tastes OF
women in the audiences, particularly
the young women. l cannot account
for the curious psychology OF IT, Fos-
sibly it is because blond men are rare
and women rush for anything that Il

1t is because these men have more

romantic than the brunette type. we

having six men With dark hair anu

"This rage for blond men on the par'
Of the women has quite upset the
chorus mems profession. Fellows Whc
have been in the business for five OF
six years and who have always sue
ceeded in getting a position hitherto
pace Broadway in vain. Some nave
used peroxide to land an engagement
that they couldn't otherwise get. Un-
less the rage dies down we are likely
to see as much bleaching among the
chorus men as among the chorus girls.
Last night the musical comedy pro-
ducers who have managed to catch live
specimens of the blond haired chorus
men refused to let them go home, but
kept them in cages at the theaters.
The present market stringency will
preyail until musical comedy fashions
change again and totally bald chorus
men come into demand.

VENICE ROMANCE
ENDS IN WEDDING
Started in GondoIa and Is Famed
by Flames That Swept

ARE MARRIED AT MIRAMAR
Roger John Sterrett Claims Miss
Geneva Webb, Ohio HeiresS,
as His Bride
ARE MARRIED AT MIRAMAR

Roger John Sterrett, head Of the art
department of Los Angeles high school,
was married August 30, at Mlramar,
near Santa Barbara, to Miss Geneva
Webb of Plymouth, o., and the couple
are passing their honeymoon at San
ia Barbara, guests at the Potter hotel
The affair was the elimination of
romance which began in a gondola
at Venice, Cal, took the pair through
the stirring times of the fires near
Rowardennan, and finally ended in
their feeting at Miramar and deciding
1t was the proper place to be married.
Mr Sterrett, in speaking of the ro-
nance at Santa Barbara last evening,
said:
1--WE were both teachers in the Ven
ice highschool at one time, and knew
each other there slightly. However,
I may say that our acquaintance real
ly began with a gondola ride we hap
pened to take one evening. 1 don't
know whether it was the soft music
which was to be heard over the rip
pie of the craft or the moon overhead,
but, anyway, at that very minute,
the romance began for me.
I'VE met again at Rowardennan,
both being driven out of the noun
tains by the forest fires and having
by that time become little better
acquainted and having decided
that we were in love with each other
we came to Miramar where we were
married Tuesday, the Rev. M. M
Moore of All Saints by the Sea per-
forming the ceremony. We will re-
main at the Potter a week and then
return to Los Angeles"
Mr.. Sterrett is we'll known in this
city in connection with his school
work. He is a Stanford graduate,
member of the University club, the
Venice Country club, and several SINH
lar organizations. His marriage was
a total surprise to his many friends.
Mrs. Sterrett is the daughter of a well
known Ohio family and is quite
wealthy in her own right.
