| Why Plain Men
Attract Beautiful Women.


\ fact that no one can DENY is that
for some women a really plain man seems
to have a definite power of attraction.
Can 1t be that. if beautiful themselves,
they find Il charm i'll their opposite: or it
1t that they brook no rival near lite
throne, aud see in n handsome man more
or less Of a competitor? \ good-looking
husband or brother attracts notice, and
Her ROYAL Highness Woman may refuse
to be in the background. At any rate.
there can be no doubt that an ugly man
seems often to WELD all influence that is
quite uncanny.
The trend of the times may have
something to say on the subject. \
modern woman. with her brains and her
freedom and her strenuous ideals. has no
use for what is weak, insipid. and de-
Cadent, Sht has no place in her heart
for the scented exquisite, who waves his

prettlness is now at discount, and most
of us would sooner see our men brown

A MURDER.
NeiehborS Quarrel and Fight
One Shot and Dies
at Hospital

Berkeley County has had another
tragedy enacted last Saturday evening
in Arden district near Stokes School
House. The parties to the matter were
John Evans and John Davis. Evans
shot DAVIS In the leg and SO Iscerated
the member that Davis died at the
CITY hospital i'll this city on Sunday
morning at an early hour.
II seems that Evans with his augh-
ter, the widow of the late Joseph Fis-
Gus came to town Saturday TO pay
note at the Merchants & Farmers
hank of which Mrs. Eiscus and her
son were the drawers and Davis was
in town ;also. II seems that the two
men had been drinking while in town
and that Evans borrowed a dollar
from Davis which be spent for whis-
KEY and which ne took out with him.
About the time they arrived in the vi
entity of their homo they quarreled
about the note. Evans claimed that
Davis had promised to help TO pay the
note and then refused to do so and con-
siderable amount of cursing and swear
ing was engaged in and Evans claims
that Davis struck him with an open
ring. This 1t seems took place at the
Fiscus gate. Evans says that soon az
ter he and Mrs. Fiscus got home he
was at the barn and saw Davis COM
ing and he told one of Fiscus boys 10
give him his gun which he had there
having just returned from hunting
and Evans says that he warned Davis
to keep back and even told him that
he would shoot him if he approached
and that he did not fire until Davis
was within fifteen feet of him and then
be fired low so as not to kill HIM. The
load took effect in the calf of the leg
and Davis reeled aud fell. DR.. Clifford
Sperow was called and got there about
$50 o'clock and found that the man
had nearly bled to death. He was I'M
able to do much for the man by him.
self so after making him as comforta-
ole as possible the DR.. came back to
town and sent DR.. Oates and DR..
Minghlni with the auto ambulance
TO the Davis home for the wounded
man but they did not get to the hos
pital until after midnight and then
| found on examination that the leg
would have to be amputated at once.
Dr. Sperow assisted and the ley was
taken off but the patient died about 4
O'Clock Sunday morning.
Davis was son of Glen Davis and
leaves wife and several children.
The officers were sent with war
rant for Evans and he was found at
the home of his son, William Evans.
he made no resistance but came will
ngly with the officers and was locked
IN Jail. About all the information &c
Tar as to the details Of the tragedy have
been given out by Evans as Davis is
dead.
The parties are all more or less Of un
saVory reputation and there is said tt
have been an undue intimacy between
The dead man aud the daughter o
Evans, Mrs. Fiscus.
The remains were taken to the un
dertaking establishment of Mr.. Kogle
schatz and were later taken to tn
Davis home.
