A report from the Virginia Hospital
late last night was to the effect that
Mrs. Leah Smoot. who was shot by
her husband Tuesday night in her
apartments In the home of John w,
Smoot, brother of the arrested man, -
RI pidly improving and much hope is
now being entertained for her recov-
cry The only obstacle in the way To
her getting well Is the fear that blood
poison might result from the ..22-cali-
bre bullet still in her body.
Several features are sure to mark
the trial of young Smoot when IL Is
called In Police Court. The case was
continued by Judge Crutchfield for ten
days. when 1t was called wednesday '.
but Ii Is more than probable that it
will not be heard until after the re-
covery of Mrs. Smoot. Smoot has not
as yet engaged counsel. when In
quiry was made at his home concern
Ing the case. no information could be
gained.
The principal defense of the hus-
band however, will be some letters
which he has In his possession and
" hich were written TO his wife after
her marriage. The exact text of these
letters will not be published, but II Is
known that Snoot will rely upon these
U. prove tHat MS wife was receiving
the attentions of other men. All the
facts In the case will not be brought
cut until the trial either. The men
msAtioned In the letters held by Suoot
will probably be summoned to the trial
although some of them live outside of
the State.
The letters held by Smoot are such
as would seem to largely turn public
sympathy to him. Men who know
Smoot SAYS that he was well liked by
all who knew him. His many friends
" hom he met while an employee Of
the local street railway company say
he would not have committed the act
without soms good cause.
Smoot was last night removed from
the Virginia Hospital to the Jail hos
pitsl He seems to be recovering rap
idly from his attempts to kill himself.
The bullet that lodged at the top of
his skull will not be removed for a
weak. The loss of blood has greatly
weakened the man.

FOX FUR LIKED.

The most fashionable fur for neck
piece and muff sets seems to be fox,
particularly blue fox and rose fox
the latter dyed by rather an expensive
process. Smoked fur is also in favor
since gray shades will be much worn
this season, and one may even have
gunmetal fox or battle ship gray fox
by giving an order to an expert fur
rfer. These fox pelts in soft. neutral
tones are very becoming to the face
and they are much smarter now, even
with black or dark colored costumes.
than skunk or mink, though these furs
will be standbys, as they always are.
Black fox is not one of fashions fav-
orites in peltry this season. but lynx.
long haired and silky, is. Lynx is to
trim seal-skin coats, to border evening
frocks of gauzy black net and to trim
sumptuous velvet wraps, as we'll as
for graceful neckpiece and muff sets.
Lynx looks particularly well with
green broadcloth and is infinitely
smart with plaid or striped worsteds

MISSION TO NEAR EAST.

Many are the rumors which sur
round the mission of Lord Kitchener.
That he has gone to the near east is
admitted by the British government:
and on the way he had an important
conference with the French authori-
ties. Soon thereafter comes word that
q member of the French cabinet serv-
Ing without portfolio but previously
engaged in work connected with for
eign affairs, has left for Athens, and
1t is but natural that it should be
inferred that they are engaged in the
task of Strengthening out the tangle in
the Balkans If such a thing is pos
sible.
Word now comes to the effect that
Lord Kitchener has been given au-
thority to treat with King Constan-
tine Of Greece for the purpose of se-
curing the active cooperation of that
country with the allies. Benevolent
neutrality meant more before the dis
solution of the chamber of deputies
than it does now that that body which
was under the control of cx-Premier
Venizeios has been put out of exist
cnce. The allies have been sending
large achievements to the relief of
The Balkans and now Italy has an
nounced that it will send an army
worthy of the greatness of that coun-
try to the relief of the threatened ma
ton, while Russia already has plans
underway which will result in the
Strengthening of the allies cause in
G that section.
The allies have long recognized the
necessity of preventing any such fizzle
as followed the negotiations with Bull
garia. Greece and Rumania may be

QUICK SOLUTION OF DEER TRoU
BILE

At the last session of the legislature
it was made evident from all sections
Of the state that the deer which were
under the protection of the laws of
Connecticut were a menace to the
farmer. The state said that the pref
ty creatures could not be shot and
that protection placed the burden Of
their support upon the cultfvators of
the soil. Some of the damage which
they did to growing produce and Or
chards was paid for by the state. but
there was a large amount Of it which
was not and while it was fully under
stood that the deer were the depreda-
tors 1t was impossible to prove it. The
killing Of deer was permitted only
when they were caught in the act of
destruction and those instances were
few and far between.
The remedy for the trouble was de-
clared to be the changing of the law
80 that the deer could be hunted. This
would put an end to the nuisance and
the expense and rid the state of the
animals which never ought to have
been encouraged to propagate within
its limits.
The law permitting the hunting Of
deer was passed and how well it is
working out and serving the purpose
for which it was intended is disclosed
by the statement OF John NJ. Cramp-
ton, superintendent of state game
when he declares that if the killing
is continued at the rate it has been
maintained since the law went into
effect last August, it will mean that
there will be no deer in Connecticut
in six months more. Thus It means
that the legislation enacted at the last
session of the general assembly prom
lses to prove a quick solution Of the
farmers trouble from deer.

cHuRcHILL,s Action MAY HELP.

For long time every intitfation
that CONSUMPTION would have to be re-
sorted to in Great Britain in order to
secure the required number OF men
to iii the gaps in the British forces
has met with strong opposition. Il
Is not popular move and up to now
the army OF three milton or more that
the British have furnished has been
secured under the volunteer plan. In
hopes of bolstering up the enlistments
and preventing CONSUMPTION Lord Der
by was placed at the head of an am
bilious scheme of enlistnents which
involved the solicitation Of the men of
the country for military service, the
response to be made at once for SER
vice at such a time as 1t might be
needed in, the future. It furnished the
government basis for estimating the
number of reserves upon whom it
might count for future operations.
For time 1t promised to solve the
problem, for the response was large
and there are the colonies which have
proved of great assistance in the hours
Of need, but with the remainder of the
month allowed to determine whether
1t Is going to prove successful in
avoiding conscription, the situation
depends entirely upon the men Of the
British Isles.
Not little influence is likely to
be exerted by the announcement just
made by Winston s. Churchill, former
first lord of the admiralty and up to
his resignation member OF the cab
met, that he Is going to the front with
his regiment, where he can be of more
service to his country This is likely
to create strong impression upon
those who have come to be termed the
tslackersn and the next two weeks
can be depended upon to determine
whether the English policy of recruit
ing an army is going to succeed or
fail. With CONSUMPTION as the alter
native the decision rests with the men
Of Britain.

IVORY STAINS.

When the stains on ivory are slight
and will not disappear when rubbed
off with a dry cloth, wash the article
thoroughly in warm water and soap
suds and then, without drying it on
a cloth, place it in the bright sunlight
for a few minutes. This exposure will
usually remove the stains. After they
have disappeared wash the ivory
again in soap and water. rinse it
thoroughly and dry carefully with a
soft cloth. Where the stains do not
disappear entirely after contact with
the suns rays, the ivory should be
washed again in soap and water, then
rinsed in clear water to which a lit
tie lemon juice has been added Care
must be taken to have the tempera-
ture of the water right, as too great
heat will injure ivory. Dark discol-
orations require the services of an ex-

BEWARE TIGHT COLLAR.

There is a doctor who waged a war
against tight collars when they were
in fashion, and if they come back to

to remember his arguments He at
tributes many alarming symptoms to
the collar that binds the neck too
closely. The trouble does not lie in
the fact that the pressure on the
windpipe is too severe. This pressure,
to be sure, is not good thing; but

PLAYED MIRO JAPAN's HANDS.

A statement which cannot fail to
attract attention is that which has
been made to the effect that Ameri-
can steel manufacturers are anticipat-
ing orders ranging from 100000 to L.
000, 900 tons OF steel for SIS new steam
ships, the construction Of which will
be carried on IN Japanese yards.
This means of course that Japan is
alive to the opening which has been
created for It in the Pacific through
the dissolution Of the Pacific Mail and
other steamship lines which have pre-
viously done large part of the trans
pacific business. Japanese steamship
lines have been increasing their ia
ciiities for handling the transportation
business which has been turned over
to them by the seamen's act. The me-
cessity of getting more vessels is real
lied end no delay is being permitted
in meeting the requirements Of the
situation.
Japan is thus doing just what ought
to be underway in this country. The
expansion OF the japanese merchant
marine has been expected and such
growth as is contemplated simply de-
creases the prospects for shipping un-
der the American flag for many of
those vessels will be utilized In con-
Quoting the trade between this country
and the orient.
The worst feature of this is that not
only is the American flag disappear
ing from the high seas, and the action
Of Japan in stepping into the breech
makes 1t more difficult to regain lost
ground, but it is all the result Of our
own legislation. 1t is the logical re-
suit of our 1awmaking which has en-
tireiy disregarded the needs of Amer
lean shipping in spite of declared
wish to have the American merchant
marine grow
