MILTON, Del, June Women re-
ceived their first right to vote in Mil
ton Saturday, when all who owned
property took part in a special cleo
tion to decide if the town should
build water plant for fire protec-

showed their progressiveness by fore
ing the building of the plant by a vote
of 204 to s. The installation of the
plant will cost $4,000. and 5 per cent.
bonds will be issued to pay the bill
The increased taxation for building
the plant, however, will be more than
made up by the decrease in insurance
rates, and the town expects to pay
its bonds by profits made from the
water.

CAUSE OF DEATH IN DOUBT
Three People Under Arrest Over
Mysterious Death of Miss GoIdie
Ness, of Tacoma

The arrest on Tuesday night of
Doctors B. N. MacLafferty and Mayme
MacLafferty, on charge of perform
ing a criminal operation, that result
ed in the death of Miss Goldie Ness,
a young woman of Tacoma, "a years
of age, was the astounding informa-
ton that met the people of Aberdeen
yesterday morning.
Miss Ness came to Aberdeen from
Tacoma last month, and entered the
training school for nurses in the Abb
erdeen General hospital. In few
weeks she applied for leave of alb
sence, as she said, to visit her mother
in Tacoma. 1t now transpires that
the young lady was in trouble, and
instead of going to Tacoma, went to
the Grays Harbor hospital for treat
ment, returning to the Aberdeen Gen
eral hospital later. she was taken
i'll with fatal results. DR.. SHIFTS was
unable to certify to the cause of death
and Coroner Hunter made an autopsy
that is said to have revealed a GRIM
inal operation.
DR.. B. n. MacLafferty is long and
favorably known in Aberdeen, being
son of David MacLatferty, and ha !,
grown from childhood in this city,
where he graduated from the high
school before taking up the study OF
medicine. After several years prac-
tice in Portland, where he met and
married DR.. Mayme MacLafferty, he
came to Aberdeen, where they Jointly
have not only built up an extensive
practice, but have enjoyed an envla-
BILE reputation as physicians and as
good citizens, so that the news OF
their arrest came as a shock to their
numerous friends. The consensus
of opinion in Aberdeen seems to. be
that it will require strong corrobora-
/ tive evidence to convince this people
that the Drs. MacLafferty are in any
way guilty of any criminal practice.

How TO Renovats CARPETS.

To one pail Of warm water add one
pint of OK gall; dip soaped flannel
into the mixture and rub well the sur
face of the carpet, piece by piece, rims
ing it as you proceed in clean cold
water. taking care not to make the car
pet too wet and finish off by rubbing
with q dry coarse cloth. The carpet,
of course, must be well beaten before
It is operated upon. This process is
simple and surprisingly effective IN
renovating the colors. The only draw
back is the ef1luvium given off by the
gall but this is soon remedied by ex.
posture to the air or by opening the
windows If the carpet be laid down.

to look over an edition Of Godey's

you will recognize features of some of

these old frocks with few modern
touches.
For instance, the dress illustrated OF
old timey patterned black and green

the tucked sleeves and the cords about
the waist line which this season finish
many of the best gowns at this point.
The retcule of embroidered linen is
another quaint feature.
