greatly shocked this entire community,
occurred here when Edward Collie,
white. twenty-five years old, was shot
and almost instantly killed by Rob
Venable, also white. twenty years old.
Collie was shot with a double-bar

said, had married Venabie's sister
only a few weeks ago.
The tragedy took place at Piasterco,
small town on the Washington and
Smyth County line, few miles from
Saltville, 1t seems that Collie had
just lost his job at the plaster plant
last week. and that he blamed Ven-
able for his being fired. A fight en-
sued, in which it is said Collie got the
worst end of It, He then threatened
yenable's life. according to the story
of friends. and is alleged to have gone
to the yenable home in search OF his
antagonist. When he got to the gate,
Yenable warned him not to enter his
premises. so il lis claimed. but he re-
fused TO heed the warning. Upon en-
tering the yard Venabie leveled his
shotgun at him and emptied both
loads into his body. Collie fell In a
heap with two gaping wounds and

Creek Names Of Iowa.

That Iowa is farming state is re-
Elected In the names of many Of the
streams that flow through 1t. First
there Is Farm creek, so that Farmers
creek Is not out of place; then there Is
a Chicken creek, Duck creek, a
Goose creek, number Of Turkey
creeks, rs well as Pigeon creek. There
are Fox, Hawk and Rat creeks to de-
your the domestic animals, and some
Crow creeks, while there is also Ely
creek and Mosquito creek. Water
creeks are present, likewise Hog run
and Mud creek, so that Bacon creek
is not strange. 1t Is fitting that with a
Bee creek and Bee branch there
should also be a Honey creek. There
are couple Of Cherry creeks, Crab
apple creek and plenty Of Plum creeks,
and for the wild animals we have
Bear, Beaver, Buck, Crane, Deer, Doe,
Elk, Otter, Panther, Raccoon, Skunk
and Wolf creeks. With a Keg creek
there is a Whisky creek and Whisky
run. Finally there Is a Purgatory
creek.-Argonaut

Mars and the Hand,

There is mount in the hands of
persons who are said to be impressed
more in music by marches Of warlike
character than anything else. 1t is a
soft, cushlon-like mount within the
center Of the hand proper, but is gen
orally developed toward the outer edge
of the palm.
These persons are said to be under
the influence Of Mars and to have in
herited warlike tendencies, but 1t more
than usually shows an ordinary amount
Of courage that Is possessed by most
persons. These are the ones who
would be thrilled by the "Marseil-
laise," the Russian national hymn, the
watch on the Rhine" or the "Star
Spangled Banner" Subjects Of Mars
seldom become proficient musicians OF
successful singers unless the other In
dications in their hands show other
musical fancies.-Buffalo News.

IN. Jans Work All tha rlr..

Literally the japanese work all the
time. 1t is not at all uncommon to
find japanese men and women at work
In their shops at 2, 3 and 4 o'clock in
the morning. They must work like
this or starve. They live directly in
the rear of their places Of business.
Their entire household equipment com
prises q few mats, few cushions and
a little tableware. They go at their
Job-whether 1t consists Of making
clogs or inlaid cuff buttons. and work
and work and work until they are ex-
hausted. Then they sleep a little and
go back to work. 1t does not take a
japanese ten minutes to eat his meal
Of rice and fish. He has his festivals,
Of course, and good many of them,
but he works the rest Of the time, and
in many households it must be n spe-
cial and personal festival, connected
with some individual or family gods,
to lure him from his occupation. He
needs the money.-Samuel G.. Blythe

DO not dodge. Whatever the dif6-
culties to be met they are not made
easier by trying to dodge them. In
trying to dodge a missile from one d.
rection you may come In line with one
from different, direction. When we
dodge trouble we,are more than likely
to get into other trouble no less easy
to endure. Look with courage on
what must be met. Faced with cour-
age difficulties are half conquered.
Better meet and conquer difficulties
than to dodge them. Do not dodge
duties that devolve on you. Duties
performed add strength and dignity
to character. 1t matters little what
these duties are; though they be Of
the simplest and humblest, well and
truly done, they acquire dignity. Stand
up bravely and squarely to meet the
difficulties OF life. With courage you
will conquer. You will come through
life with fewer scars than by trying to
dodge duty or difficulty. Trying to
evade begets in a man a cringing spir-
It He gets a habit of trucking, and
upright, self respecting manhood is
gone. Don't dodge If you would hold
yourself above meanness.- Milwaukee
