can extraction. under arrest for the
murder Of a younger sister, whose life
was insured in her favor, tonight ad-
mitted to the District Attorney that she
had administered morphine to the girl,
but had done so by mistake.
If the law succeeds in enmeshing her
in the net Of circumstantial evidence it
is attempting TO cast about her. Miss
Crawford, who is twenty-nine years old,
may have to answer not only for the
death of her sister, Elise. "A stenogra-
pher, but also for the poisoning Of three
other members of her family who have
died mysteriously within the last fifteen
months, all carrying life insurance i'm
her favor
The woman was arrested late to-da-
following a report from a chemist who
analyzed the sisters stomach after her
death last Saturday to the effect that
he found traces of morphine. She said
tonight, after hours Of questioning, that
she had intended to give calomel and
soda to her sister. She said she had
stolen the morphine from the Prcsby-
terian Hospital.

What Our Mothers Used to Do.

In the January Woman's Home
Companion there is an interest
ing presentation of the differ
ence that exists between the do
mestic standards Of young mar
ried women of to-day and those
of the past generation. How did
the women of the middle class Of
a generation or two ago manage
when they could not keep help?
Following is the answer quoted
from a Companion editorial:
They lived according to their
means; they did not set up inn
possible standards, and they
knew much less about the sci.
ence Of bringing up children.
They had no special style to keep
up; gave the children weekly
bath; kept the table set between
meals; did not serve their meals
in courses, but put all the food
on the table at once; confined
their social affairs to evening
calls and parties, and church
suppers, at which they wore the
same black dress for at least two
seasons; in short, every woman
did only what she could, and her
friends made it easier for her by
doing likewise.

MAGIC Of the Clean Page on New
Years Day.

In the January Women's Home
Companion, DR.. Charles f. jeff
erson, of the Broadway Taber
nacle in New York City. writes
a wonderful New Years sermon,
entitled Turning the Leaf" In
the course of this sermon, he
shows as follows why it is that
We all are inspired with hope for
the future on New Years Day:
1T is because we are touched
by the magic of the clean page
that we begin each year with the
CHEEKY salution, Il wish you a
Happy New Year." We dare say
it to everyone. No matter what
the old year was, we still expect
bright thing from the new one.
Even to those whom the old year
has battled and mangled, we are
bold to give jubilant greetings.
This is because of the native
hopefulness of the soul. we in
stinctively believe in the good
ness of the Eternal, and because
God is King Of all souls and all
years, we know that numberless
lovely things are possible. No
one can be a fatalist on New
Years. On the first day of the
new year We are certain Of our
freedom. We can get out of our
rut. We can escape from our
prison. The sight of the clean
page cleanses the eyes"

Running Time to be Reduced.

1t is stated that the Texas &
Pacific railroad company is busy
stringing a new time card which
will be into effect about Dec. 20.
The new card lengthens the time
of No. 3, it is stated, about two
hours between Texarkana and
Fort Worth and about one and a
half hours on the Rio Grande
division. No. 2's time is also
said to be about two hours slow
er over the Eastern division.
The making OF longer hours to
get the trains over the Earstren
division is said to be caused by
the express company having 80
much business it requires more
time to handle it at the stations
so the travelling public must have
to wait on the express company
and be conducted with slower
time. Marshall Messenger.

Mistaken Impression Of Sheppard


The Pittsburg Gazette comes
to the defense Of Morris Shep-
pard in these words:
"A few papers in the state,
very few, however, insinuate
now and then that Morris Shepp-
ard is running for the senate on
his Woodcraft record. No paper
in Mr.. Sheppard's districts
where his life in an open book
has ever raised such . question.
His past recod demonstrates
that he had plenty to run on be-
sides Woodcfaft. He has been
a loyal Woodmsn and made
speeches long before he ever
dreamed OF political honors,
and he would sacrifice his high
est ambition before using his
connection with any order to
boost him into any Office. His
distinguished opponents are
both members of the same orders
and perhaps equally as loyal.
Woodcraft has demaded of Mr..
Sheppard much of his time and
talent and heaped unsolicited
honors upon him. In return he
has been appreciative enough
to do his duty and show his loyal
ty, which is simply another
characteristic of his manhood. ;,
