Effective Collar

The little black velvet collar that is
SO much seen on otherwise pale col
ored costumes is more effective than
could be imagined by anyone who
mad not had an opportunity Of
seeing the same gown without this
distinctive note. The form is Of the
simplest. The collar is of the same
width all round. and stops short in
front, leaving space of about an
inch and a half. This is filled in with
the Byron tie. the ends floating rather
loosely, as may be guessed from the
title.

These are particularly popular in
Paris just now, but many have come

Autopsy Shows Reason for WhlstIins

Denver-Everett Brown. the whis-
tling sailor who shot himself through
the head three weeks ago because his
sweetheart left him, died at the coun-
ty hospital. He was whistling when
death came and had whistled almost
continually while he was in the hos
pital. An autopsy showed that the
bullet he fired into his head had af-
fected his brain. The nerve govern
ing his respiratory muscles was de-
stroyed and as result Brown could
not restrain himself from whistling.

kenehan Finds Discrepancy in Report

Denver.-State Auditor Kenehan is
investigating a discrepancy of $3.50
which is said to have been found in
the accounts of j. T. Brooks, former
secretary of the State Board Of Bar
ber Examiners. Kenehan will make
a report to the governor who will take
action. The report Of State Treasur
er Leddy, which covers the period
from Dec. l, 1910, to August, 1911, is
said to show an error. According to
this report, Brooks received S5,114.3U
and turned over S4,961.50. Officers
say this report leaves Brooks with
$3.50 unaccounted for.

the facts The truth Is there are not
three nor even two of the West Vir,
ginian stockholders who own any gas
stock. One of the stockholders OF
this paper does own some Of the gas
stock. But suppose he does what diff
ference does that make? There is no
connection between the West Virgin.
ian and the gas company, and there
never has been. The Times says 1t
Goes not own any of the gas company
stock but 1t shows far more familiar
ity with the gas company's affair:
than the West Virginian. 1t seems
to have access to the stock books a!
shown by the ttemized statement o!
the stockholders in the gas company,
which it publishes only in part, but II
only gives about one-third of the
amount Of actual stock outstanding.
Why docs not the Times give the
public full information about this
matter by publishing the entire lis
Of stockholders so the people can
know and understand just where tn;
control Of the gas company lies"
I'The West virginian will publish thu
Hist II it is furnished It for that pur
pose but we surmise that the Times
will be Just as long about publishing
this list as it was in publishing the
list of election Officers appointed BY
the council in violation Of law.
The public knows, regardless 0i
the defense of the Times that the ga
company has always been known a
a Watson corporation and it will b
so understood when the rest of tilt
stock has been accounted for. II wa
SO much u Watson company that th'
Watson building was designed by TIL
architect to give it a permanent OF
flee, SO sure were they that it would
be kept there as long us they desired
and that was evidently long tim.
since the little office set apart TO;
the Gas company would never have
been built into permanent struc
turc OF this size.
The Times refers to the statements
OF the West Virginian as CLEARING
misrepresentation" in regard to th'
pending gas deal, but it fails to point
out Il single instance where the Wes
Virginian has made single misrep
rcsentation in this respect. II one i
pointed out this paper will gladly cor
rect any erroneous statement that il
has made, but it believes 1t has clear

The West Virginian believes that
gas in the heart of the biggest gas
field in the state can be furnished as
cheaply In Fairmont as 1t can IN
Huntington where the gas fields are
about thirty to fifty miles from the
CITY. There the factories get gas
at five cents and the domestic con-
sumers get it at fifteen cents thou

there is any reason why Fairmont
could not have the same industrial
and domestic advantages? viii the
