tail Merchants Association.

The board OF governors of the Retail
Merchants Association at its meeting

. ISOLATION should give no encouragement
| to the solicitors for charities who receive
commissions TOR their work. The menu
bers Of the association hereafter will see
that their contributions to charities nnd
their way without deduction to the OBJ.
jects for which they were given.
1t was brought out at the meeting that
the merchants are continually being
asked to make donations to local chari-
ties. and that upon investigation II IL
found that a large share of the money
which is supposed to be devoted to char
liable work is retained by the solicitors
in the form Of commissions.
The opinion was expressed that worthy
charities have no need to employ So
licitors who charge large commissions.
The merchants feel that the charities
should make their appeal direct by some
regular. permanent officer.

YOUNG WOMAN STRIVES
TO MURDER HER FATHER
Refused to Support Herself
and Constantly Demanded
Money and Luxury.
Foreign Correspondence OF The Star.

Foreign Correspondence OF The Star.
PARIS, January 4. 1911.
One of the government Offices has been
the scene of an attempt on the part OF an
excited young woman to shoot her father.
He has been an attendant at the foreign
ministry for a number of years. and has
four children. The eldest OF them is a
daughter. twenty EIGHT years OF age, who
appears to have given him a good deal OF
trouble. The father being in reduced cir
cumstances, the children had to earn their
own living. but his eldest daughter, he
alleges, had such a terrible temper that
she could not obtain work anywhere. She
was consequently a burden on him, and
constantly importuned him for money,
while refusing to five with the rest OF the
family.
Could Not Afford Expense.
The father had paid for a room for her
apart, but as his income diminished he
could no longer afford It, and he gave
notice that he would cease to pay for the
room. The daughter thereupon rushed to
the public Office where he was employed
and made a scene. The father had to re-
quest the other attendants to help him 10
put her out. The young woman was
furious at being expelled, went straIsnI
to a gunsmith and purchased small
revolver. with which she returned to the
ONCE. Making her way a second time
to where her father was employed, she
asked him again If he refused to support
her. On his reply that he did she aimed
ar him with her revolver and attempted to
fire.
Gunsmith's shrewd Precaution.
But the weapon did not go of, and she
was seized by other employees before she
could make a second attempt. The father
probably owes his life to the prudence
of the gunsmith. who seeing the young
woman in such a state of excitement, SO
arranged the revolver that 1t could not
go of The woman was arrested ana
examined by the police commissioner. VINO
sent her to the police depot on the charge
of attempted patricide. which In french
law is punishable with death.

HERALD OF WINTER
THE WHO GOOSE
HAS Ape AIRED
HONk, HONk HEARD IN THE
NIGHT AS DRoVES GO
OVER.
Maury Wheat Fields Great Attrac-
ton While Duck River Furnishes
Them All They Want as a Swim.
ming Place In Winter.

The honk, honk of the wild geese
as they travel from one section of
the country to the other has long
been recognized as a weather herald
both in the spring and in the fall.
When they go north in the spring to
seek the lakes of Canada it is then
agreed that spring is coming, and
when they go South in the fall to seek
the milder climate winter is said to
be near.
These perigrinations are generally
made in the day time, in fact it is the
rarest occasion when they make a
trip at night, though sometimes the
lonesome honk of the leader with the
after beat of the followers is heard at
night. This generally occurs, howev-
er, when the birds have been disturb
ed in some way.
Maury county's wheat fields nave
long been an attraction to wild geese
and many days sport has been en-
joyed by residents and visitors as
well in pursuit of this game, and the
sportsmen generally watch for their
coming with great deal of anxiety.
Those who were awake in Column
bia last night between and o'ciock
could have heard the music of these
''gooses" as they were vending their
way toward the South. One who
heard took occasion to look out and
said the sky overhead was almost
hidden by the great droves They
seemed to be travelling in sections and
each section contained a large drove
in the usual V shaped col
INN.
This will be welcome news to many |
If the hunters in this section and the
fields will be watched during the day
md the roosting places along the riv-
er will early be the object of nightly
lists.
