broken all records for duration this
summer, the driest in the history of

HER RELIGION HIT HER HEAVY
AfIiliatiOn With the Holy Rollers
Made a Penitent Out of
Mrs. IVcy
pensacola News)

Following her conversion to the
belief of her sect known as Holy
Rollers" white woman known by
the name of Ivey, residing in Wal
ton county has confessed to being an
accomplice in the murder of her
husband, formerly prominent
farmer of that county, ten years ago.
She gave the name of the man
whom she says did the killing and
who was also a prominent man in
the county at that time, but who has
since died, his death occurring while
he was in Jail at DeFuniak awaiting
trial, which was set for the next day
on the charge of killing another man
in 1907, this circumstance being
we'll remembered by the citizens of
Walton county.
The story of the woman is rather
a sensational one. She says that she
and the man whom she says did the
killing became very intimate and
that he persuaded her to agree to
give her husband strychnine and
kill him. She says she gave him the
'strychnine, but that it did not seem
to hurt him, whereupOn her "affin-
ity' urged her to give her husband
another dose, but she refused. 1t was
then agreed that the former would
kill Iyey and get him out of the way.
On Sept. ,, 1903, the woman says
the man with whom she was infatu-
ated killed her husband by shooting
him twice in the back, after which
she accompanied him to an isolated
spot in the woods where they buried
the body.
She took the sheriff and a crswd
to the spot where she said she
thought they buried her husband.
but no trace of his body could be
found. She said she had never been
back there but once since they burf-
ed him and that was three months
after the killing.
The woman appears to be per-
fectly sane and tells a straight story.
1t was believed at the time of Joe
Ivey's Disappearance that he had
been murdered. but no trace of his
body or clue could be found at the
time.

London, Aug. 9.-That street-walk-

the latter are unwittingIy following
these styles because they are Paris
gowns, is the conclusion reached by
Rudolph Coney, editor of the Gar

several weeks special study of styles
in Paris, sailed yesterday for New
York.
1T took me just two days in Paris
to get at the root Of this wild orgy
en- dishabille, in which so many per-
fectly respectable women are indulg-
ing" said Mr.. Coney, today. "The
demi-mondaine of Paris are debating
the styles to US, and the hired models
of the great dressmaking firms are
helping the women and girls of the
United States along to what, if the
craze continues, will end in pTacti-

TRYING To CAPTURE THE PALMA TROPHY

Camp Perry, Ohio, August 16.-
What promises to be the greatest
rife tournament ever held in the
United States, if not the world, in
extent of the number of contestants,
began here yesterday and continues
until September 9.
England is the only power that
has declined to send a team. In de-
clining to send representatives the
military authorities OF Great Britain
rankly gave as their reason the in
feriority of their army rifle to the
service rife of the United States.
Among the nations which have
sent teams to Camp Perry to contest
for the international supremacy and
the Palma trophy are France, Ger
many, Switzerland, Sweden, Argen-
tine Republic, Peru, Canada, Mexico
and Cuba. For twenty years Am
erican teams have won practically
every international match of impor-
tance and the other nations have
sent the crack rifemen to make
heroic efforts to life the Palma trophy
and capture the international mill
tary rifle championship.

lively Parsian, so when he sees a pref
Longchamps or some such place,
wearing a strange, but exceedingly
daring gown, probably split half way
to the waist and showing the woman's
form as plainly as if she were nude or
wore tights only, he Immediately
makes note of the vision. Then he
sees other gowns which reveal even
more of the wearer's form than the
split skirt, and not knowing that
these dangerous, apparently wealthy
women are merely members of the
underworld, he gets his ideas togeth-
er, goes to a dress designed and has
his ideas worked out.
What will be the end of this orgy?
America will set her own styles. 1t
won't be in a day, but it is bound to
come. 1t may not come for twenty
years-unless the present tendency
to half nakedness on the part of our
women continues. 1t will only take

1T isn't always daring styles which
will hurry the time when America
sets her own mode of dress The
hideous harem skirt of some years
back was a Paris blunder which set
the time up five years. There is real
ly no reason why America shouldn't
set the style. We do it in shoes and
clothes. No well-dressed Frenchman
wears English shoes now and few
of them wear English suits.
The whole attitude of American
women toward French styles is fool

analyze the question and were fair
with themselves and the American
designers and makers, they would see
how perfectly ridiculous they some
times make themselves"
