According TO the information re-
ceiNd here Cook was drinking and
went to the front of Walkers saloon

for whisky. Upon the refusal of
Walker, Cook pulled a revolver and
shot Walker, the latter dying almost
instantly Cook then disappeared and
up to a late hour last night had not

RATS, FALSE CURLs, PUFFS
AND POWDERS co UNDER BAN

No more the rats that you so love
Which make all men to stare,
And ridicule the way in which
You bundle up your hair.
No more the puffs you think so sweet
No more the bobbing curls
For all false hair must be tabooed
BY all you freshman girls.
Such in substance is a portion of
the edict which was formulated yes
terday afternoon by the co-eds of the
three upper classes of the local high
school and the announcement of which
created CONSERVATION in the ranks of
the freshman followers of Dame FASH
ion this morning. The trainers of
this order of interdiction have taken
firm stand and declare they will
enforce it, even if they have to resort
to physical violence. For, they assert,
there are some of the weaker sex
numbered in the infant class, who, so
far from exhibiting any evidence of
the modesty which so becomes a
freshman, presume to set themselves
UP as the foremost followers of fash
ions dictates. 1t is not their pre-
sumption, though, that they would
punish, these girls declare, but their

Wheeling, w. Va, Jan. 25.-Char-
acterizing Daniel Phillips as a human
worm, as a man too small to admit
he broke the law, Attorney Boyce,
Mrs. Schenk's chief counsel, resumed
his argument today.
Arraigning Phillips he said: HE
Is a man whom Schenk, | believe, has
right to kill. Not only did he be-
tray the husband but he also betray-
ed the woman who lavished her gifts
on him."
At the trial Phillips testified he
accompanied the woman on automo-
bile rides, etc.
DAY after day he went willingly
to the county prosecutor and betray-
ed the woman who was his best
friend. This community will never
near of him again. Let us hope we
will never meet him again." continued
Boyce.
Prosecuting Attorney Hanlan has
begun the closing arguments.
Hanlan said: "You as a jury are
asked to pity this woman on account
of her children. She covered them
with robes in her automobile and left
them while she submitted to the at
tentions of a young man."

Famous Novelist Succumbs to
Bullet Wounds Inflicted by
Crazy Musician.
GRITTY AUTHOR FIGHTS
VALIANTLY FOR LIFE
End Comes at Late Hour in Bellevue
Hospital-Body Taken to Arts
Ciub-Physicians Request Coroner
to Dispense With Autopsy-Senator
Beveridge in Charge of Funeral.

New York, Jan. 25.-David era
ham Phillips has lost his brave fight
for life. He died in Bellevue hospital
late last night, a victim of Fitzhugh
Coyle Boldsborough, an eccentric and
emotional physician, who, although Of
refined tastes and aristocratic south
ern stock, shot the novelist down
Monday for a fancied grievance, then
killed himself.
Phillips fought valiantly to live, but
six bullet holes were too much even
for his grit and sturdy constitution
and at 11:10 o'clock he died.
He was conscious up to within a
quarter of an hour of his death.
AT the bedside were his sister, Mrs.
Carolyn Fervert his brother, Harri-
son w. Phillips, his personal physici-
an, DR.. Eugene Fuller, and DR.. Don
ovan of Bellevue. The immediate
cause was hemmorrhage of the right
lung, which had been pierced by one
of the steel clad bullets from Colds
borough's automatic pistol.
Up TO o'clock the novelist was
resting quietly and both physicians
and relatives were hopeful of the out
come.
He had been conscious all day and
had received visitors among them
his sister, his brother, United States
Senator Beveridge of Indiana and sew
eral writer's of note. Their visits were
extremely brief, but all who came
away appeared optimistic.
After 9 o'clock the patient took a
turn for the worse and although the
surgeons did everything in their pow
er the end was inevitable.
The physicians met directly after
death and decided to request the cor
oner's jury to dispense with an au-
topsy. 1t is believed this will be gran
ted, though an autopsy is usual in
homicidal cases.
The body of Phillips was taken to
the national arts club early today,
senator Beveridge was in charge of
the removal and had arranged that
the funeral services be held in little
church around the corner. No hour
for the services have been set. He
will be buried in Indiana.
Phillips made a brave fight but
died at II o'clock.
The body of Goldsborough, Phil
lips slayer arrived today in Wash
ington, where he will be buried by
his family. The police are fully con.
vinced the man was insane.
Shortly before his death Phillips
whispered to his brother: IF 1 only
had two bullets in me I might win
out, but with five or six it is pretty
hard"
He lapsed into Inconsistencies and
the hemmorrhage followed. He died
seven minutes later.
Goldsborough's sister at Washing
ton, said: I'm the name of my faith
Ell, mother and myself, I wish to eX
press the greatest sorrow over the
shooting of Mr.. Phillips. There is
no doubt but brother was insane"
The police still cannot account for
the motive which promted the shoot
ing.

folly they would correct. In the ig-
norance of their immaturity and in
their deluded sense of the eternal fit
ness of things feminine, they are
making themselves ridiculous in the
very eyes they fain would please and
it is to save them from this humili-
alton that the edict was drawn up.
Not only is the upholstered head
put under the ban but so also is the
hand painted cheek. If false hair is
bad, declare the upperclass girls,
then a false face is worse and they
say they will not tolerate any fresh
man coed entering the portals of the
high school building with their cheeks
aglow with a serese blush that is un-
Changeable in all weathers and under
all circumstances
AS for the freshman girls themselves
various and sundry are the moods
and manners in which they take this
assumption of dictatorial powers by
their superiors in class. Some are
inclined to accept the edict with real
docility, some few profess to believe
it is sane and sanitary move, but

Federal Troops Unable to Capture

ernment Loss in Battle at Casa
Grandcs at 1SO-No Estimates of
Insurrectos Killed Obtainable.

Douglas. Ariz, Jan. 25.-Alamos, =
town between Montezuma and Her.
mosillo, is now in the hands of Col
onel Severiano Talamantes, a former
government commander, who turned
insurrecto rather than arrest his
three sons for treason, according to
unofficial reports received here. Tala-
nantes is reported to have taken with
him into the rebel ranks a detach-
ment of 100 federal troops and with
them Joined a force of 800 citizens
who declared for Madero and against
Diaz.
Talamantes, who was operating in
the vicinity OF Alamos. is said to have
been sent a list OF 100 suspects by
Military Governor Lorenzo Torres,
who ordered him to arrest the alleged
traitors and bring them to Hermo-
sllo In this list Talmantes found the
names of his three sons. He went to
Alamos. but instead of arresting the
rebels he issued a proclamation de-
claring himself a Maderoist. His 100
soldiers Joined him in the declara-
ton and the 900 armed citizens who
had previously decided to support the
rebel cause welcomed Talamantes and
his men to their ranks.
Torres. when he learned of his sub
ordinate's action, sent a force of 100
rurales to arrest him at Alamos, but
when the government troops learned
that Talamentos had armed the citi-
Zens and was preparing for battle,
they returned to Hermosillo.
There was much talk among Mexi-
can refugees crossing the border to-
day of a report emanating from rebel
sources, the state of Sonora would
secede and make Madero president Of
the republic of Sonora. This state Sc
ceded some years ago and since that
time has in a measure been under
martial law.
The rebels count on capturing Her
mosillo and say that Madero will then
appear there and set up his govern
ment there.
