Pretty Girl Shot to
Death During Quarrel
in Her Country Home
BY .4ssoeiated Prcts

Doylestown, Pa, Sept 20. - Flor
ence Cope, 8 years old, a pretty girl
of Buckingham Valley, near here, was
killed by her uncle, John Cope, at
her home last night while she was
trying to save her mother from being
shot by the uncle. Cope, who wore
neither hat nor shoes when the killing
occurred, escaped to the woods and a
large party was out to-day searching
for him. The girls father, Clinton
Cope, a farmer, was cutting corn by
moonlight while the tragedy was being
enacted in the house nearby.
The uncle had been visiting at his
brothers home and last night he ana
the girls mother quarreled over his
alleged drinking habits. The girl had
gone to bed and when she heard the
quarrel she rushed down stairs in her
night clothes and stepped between her
mother and the uncle. who had a shot
gun in his hands. Whether the girl
was deliberately shot by the uncle or
received her death wound accidentally
has not been determined. She died
two hours afterward.
Miss Cope was a graduate of a high
school and was a student in q Phila-
delphia business college.

Six persons were the victims of a

FUNK TELLS REASONS
WHY GIRLS TAKE WAY

WHITE SLAVERY is UNCOMMON
Declares Women Who Take the

THE Open Door" by j. Clarence
Funk, attorney of this city, with Off
ces in the Telegraph building, is the
title of remarkable treatise on the
questions of white slavery" and com
mercialized vice.
Mr. Funk's observations are based
upon personal Investigations made as
white slave agent of the United
States Department of Justice in Har-
risburg. The conclusions reached are
the more valuable and forceful be-
cause they come not from a Prohibi-
zionist or professional reformer but
from a lawyer.
Mr.. Funk declares that most girls
are not forced into a life of shame
as is commonly supposed but that
most women enter disorderly houses of
their own volition because it is the
easiest way" He states that white
slavery even in the large cities is
comparatively rare.
Among other influences which Mr..
Funk declares leads women through
the open door" are:
1.-The public dance hall.
2-Obsccnc literature.
S-CiSarct smoking on part of
women.
1-Tbe saloon.
5-Liquor.
