That only two OF seven members of

icy surf splashing all over her she
helped John Waters, John Hayes and

Mrs. John Mooring, who lived near
this city was shot and instantly kill
ed by her stepson, Herbert MoOring
at the Mooring home, Christmas
night. MOoring came home drunk.
AS soon as he entered the house Mrs.
Mooring began TO plead with him to
stop drinking. Without saying a word
the drunken man walked into an ad-
joining room. seized his shotgun and
shot her in the breast.
The ten-year-old stepbrother OF
Mooring witnessed the killing of his
mother. AS Mooring fed the boy
caught up the gun. which the muir
derer had dropped, and fired upon

ran through the house and. as Moor
ing came around the corner, met him

ARMY WILL USE
VIRGINIA HORSES
EXPECT CONGRESS TO GIVE SUB
STANTIAL AID FOR RAISING
THEM FOR MILITARY USE.

RICHMOND. VA. SPECIAL-Horse
raising in Virginia is destined to
receive government recogination and
substantial aid If Congress adopt
ter General Aleshire, of the army.
That officer has been giving special
attention to the subject of raising
horses for military use. In other
years the War Department secured
Its animals for the mounted service
by contract, and the horses so OBJ
tanned have not met with the appro-
val or army riders, despite the at
tempts made to select serviceable an
imals by means Of specifications and
rigid inspection. There have been es-
tablished two remount stations, one
at Fort keogh, Mont, and the other
at Fort Reno, Okla, TO which places
young horses are sent for breaking in
and general training and are later
shipped to cavalry regiments The
result has been most satisfactory. and
the indications are that the mounted
man or the army is 20 have a better
horse and one that will last much
longer than the animals obtained un-
DER contract, mostly from the Middle
western section of the country.
Lately General Aleshire has been
looking into the sources of horse sup
ply In other parts of the country. in
Guiding Northern New York, the re-
mote West and Kentucky and Vir-
there is available for military use a
splendid type OF horse. 1t is now pro-
posed by the army quartermaster's
department to establish a third re-
mount station in the horse-raising
section of that State. To this end
General Aleshire contemplates the
purchase, IL Congress will authorize
1t and provide the funds, of some s.
600 acres located in the neighborhood
OF Front Royal, adjacent to two rail-
roads, in a rolling section of country,
where there is good limestone water
and bluegrass pasture. There is no
bluegrass at Fort Reno or Fort
KeOgh. and the native grasses at the
latter station require about ten acres
TO the animal for grazing. So that is
an advantage for Virginia over the
Western stations More than that the
records show that the average cost
of foraging young animals per year
at the Reno and Keogh remount de-
pots is $3.50. while In the vicinity of
Front Royal, Va. the average cost is
$50 per animal per year.
That is an admirable showing in all
respects. both as TO the economy Of
the arrangement and the eminently
desirable and profitable results OF the
undertaking. II is no surprise to those
who are familiar with the Virginia
product of horse that the Govern
nent is able TO find something attrac-
tive in that direction. Ii has all
along been considered that the thor
oughbred animal is essentially a racer
or a hunter or a jumper. without be-
ing of the practical type and endur-
ance required OF a horse in the mill
tary establishment General Aleshire' s
discoveries in Virginia are bound to
be profitable investment of the pub
lie funds and will furnish an addi-
tional source OF supply of army
horses-Washingto Herald.
