SHOT DAUGHTER;
DEF|ED SHERIFF
Johnston County Man Violent
as Result of Too Much
Booze
(By Long Distance Telephone.)

Smithfield, March 29.-In a drunken
stupor, Jim Whaley last night shot
his daughter, left home, and when
found this morning, defed the sheriff
and his deputies, and before being ia
ken shot and painfully injured sew
eral men who were aiding the officer
in capturing him. The daughter re-
ceived the load of shot in her body
as h jumped between Whaley and
his wife in an effort to save her moth
er's life as the drunken man vas aim
ing his pistol at her to take her life.
| Whaley is tonight in the Johnston
| county Jail here, and the citizens are
very much aroused over the affair,
though no violence is anticipated.
Girl May Recover.
The girl vas Immediately rushed
to Rex Hospital at Raleigh, where at
a late hour last night she was resting
as we'll as could be expected. While
the exact extent Of her injuries ave
not been learned, it is thought that
she has a chance to recover.
The crime is another deed that may
be charged to liquor. Jim Whaley
and his family lived at the Ivanhoe
Cotton Mills on the suburbs Of this
town. where he and his wife and his
daughter were employed. He a had
some trouble in his family, and some
weeks ago had been placed in Jail.
Later he secured his freedom or a
500 peace bond. Last night he and
his brother both were drinking, and
J Jim Whaley's brother recalled to his
| mind the treatment that had been ac-
f corded him by his family. and it is
said, melted him to commit the deco
for which he is now being held IL
Jail here.
Whaley went to his home, secured
his pistol, and started to shoot hi:
] wife. Just as he raised the pistol tt
fire. the girl jumped between he1
. father and mother, and the load O
shot went into her body, entering JUS
. under her heart. Whaley immediatel.

London, Friday, March 29-William

statesman who could make popular

annual budget Of government appro-
priations. Winston Spencer Churchill
has done the same thing for the naval
estimates. The young first Lord OIL
the Admiralty compelled the House Of
Commons to listen for two and a half
hours while he gave a review of the
latest achievements in naval science
so Interestingly that even the little

end.

Lord described as more like a battle
between two egg-shells striking each
other with hammers" Mr.. Churchill
believes the British navy leads the
world in flying. He promised his fell
low-members a unique exhibition later
in the season, by bringing a fleet Of
airships over the Parliament build

THE NEW cOIFFURE.

MO longer can we simply part the
~ hair at side or center and let 1t
fall plainly back to be finally rolled
on the neck. or otherwise caught up
loosely. On the contrary. there must
be decided height to the fashionable
couture, and this exactly at the right
angle to give the full appearance be-
tween the nape of the neck and the
apex of the dressing. on which 80 much
Of the effect depends.
Then, too. the hair must now be
waved and beautifully glossy and its
charming lines disposed in such a way
as to give just the support and finish
demanded by the millinery of the mo-
ment, a great change from a short time
ago, when the ambition Of the hat
seemed to disguise the fact that the
wearer had any hair at all.
Swathing of the hair is to play an
important part in the new hair dressing.
not the mere swathing Of the head with
separate coil in the usual fashion.
but the swathing around of the hair
itself 1t Is very becoming when well
done. When we hear of pompadour once
more 1t is not the hair rising straight
up from forhead and neck alike, but,
rather. the hair broken by little hints Of
parting in 'front.' and elsewhere swathed
around the head. A frame or founda-
ton is usually required to give to the
head the shape and rising height that is
desired.

Dustproof Wells.

THE desire for bright colors is includ-
: ed in the new wells in lovely shades
Of violet. gray. green. taupe. tan. pur-
pie and blue. There are most charm
ing shaded wells Of chiffon and a mar
quisette-like fabric. which shades from
a light blue to deep tones of the same
color at each end. Flesh color over the
face, shading to deep rose red at the
ends. is a becoming shading. Palest
lavender shading by degrees into deepest
purple of a royal tint is another lovely
veil Then there are pale yellows
shading to rich orange. faint greens to
dark green and many others.
The new all-over patterns on wells
are on exceptionally sheer. fine meshes.
The designs are delicate in character
and scroll-like or trailing In effect, ac-
complished by means of a woven or
hand run thread combined with dainty
leaves and flowers. Borders are mar
row and very fine in effect.

How to Press Flowers.
THE visitor to the country who like,

THE visitor to the country who likes
to press flowers can find no better
pressing agent than sheets Of newspa-
pers. put under heavy books.
Cut the newspapers into sheets Of con-
veniently small size. and make a pad Of
half a dozen Of them to put under the
flowers and another to put over them.
Then pile several heavy books on them.
Change the newspaper pads two, three
or four times when the flowers are first
pressed. as the paper absorbs the mois-
ture from the flowers and should be
changed for dry paper.
AS soon as the flowers are thoroughly
dried they can be mounted on sheets
of stin paper or thin cardboard The
best way to mount them is to cut mar
row strips of court plaster or passepar-
tout binding and to fasten the flowers Sc
curely to the cardboard or paper by past
ing the strips over the stems.
Yellow and green are the most per-
sistent colors in flowers. They do not
fade to any perceptible degree for many
months. White does not fade, Of course,
but it turns brown. and red fades rap
idly. Blue fades, too. and Lavender and
purple combine the faults Of blue and
red

TO MAKE THE HOTEL
ROOM ATTRACTIVE

THE average hotel or boarding
house at a summer resort Is q
barren place. 1t is argued that the
woman who goes to the shore or
mountains lives outdoors, or at least
on the porch. but the fact remains
that there are many rainy days in the
brightest vacation. and many hours
when the "resorter" longs to be alone,
and 1t is then that the woman of
Gainty tastes finds the graceless bed
rlcm TN eyesore.
Tho summer trunk is always filled
with frocks and frills. but If the stay
at shore or mountains is to be for two
weeks or more. it will pay to reserve
corner in the trunk for a few home
like decorative features for the room.
Many of the shops in large cities at
this SEASON of the year make a spe-
cialty Of hotel bedroom sets, consisting
Of a bureau scarf and pincushion
cover, table cover. waste paper basket
and sewing basket. The last two ar
ticles are made from stout pasteboard,
covered with linen or cretonne, and
will fold up fiat in the trunk. These
suits come in white lawn or dimity
over colored silesia. or inexpensive
fiowered dimity or organdy with fiuted
rufiies. A very pretty set shows yell
low roses on a white ground over yell
low silesia. No ribbons or laces are
employed in trimming these sets, and
they are as simple as summer furnish
ing always should be. A stunning set
in gray linen, which would pay to clean
and transfer to the home in town, was
embroidered in two harmonious shades
Of green and edged with heavy, string
colored lace.
Instead of the regulation sewing
baskets there is a wall bag, not unlike
Of various sizes for threads, needles,
buttons, darning cotton and things to
be sewed and mended. with a place to
slip In the scissors and a pincushion
attached. In the small hotel bedroom
this would be an ideal convenience.
1t Is not a bad plan to take some
strong. washable pillow covers. Cush-
ions and hassocks are at a premium at
Q resort A cushion cover made of
japanese mating or burlap and stuffed
with dry grass. hay or cotton batting
is comfortable resting place for tired
feet. 1t Is also nice on the porch to
cushion for the uncomfortable hotel
rocker Is also desirable.
In some of the hrstrclass resorts
neither electric light NOR gas is fur
nished. and town folk are often afraid
to handle lamps It will, therefore,
pay to take in the trunk one of the
neat little tapanned candlesticks, which
come in such delicate colors. A dozen
plumbers candles will last during an
ordinary vacation and furnish better
light than the common candle.
