WHALE SKINS FOR SHOES.
Ten Tons of White Hides Shipped
East from Seattle.

Seattle, May II. - Ten tons Of
skins of the beluga, or white whale,
received from Bering Sea, were ship
ped yesterday from Seattle to Eastern
shoes factories to be made into the
white shoes now so popular among
women.
The beluga abounds in Boring Sea
and Cook Inlet, and the new fashion
has stimulated the hunting of the
animal. Only the inner skin is used,
but it is so thick that four sheets of
thin leather may be obtained by split
ing. Glove factories also are seeking
beuga skins.

ZEN" Is MAKING GOOD.

Ia the First Judicial district we
have had criminal lawyers, whose
elOquence has been heard in ev-
cry court house, not only in this
district, but in this end of the
State. We have had men who
were not so eloquent, but have
been equally as valuable to the
commonwealth. The First district
has this kind of commonwealth 8
attorney at present. He Is not
man gifted in eloquence, nor
has he any such forensic power
before the juries of his court, but
his work and the record tell the
story of his value as public Of
fetal.
He has been In the office less
than a year and yet the lines
have reached highwater mark and
now, in dollars and cents amount
to over 5000.
Such is the record of Ben
Adams, who is now our common
wealth q attorney, who has q
bright future before him - an
able official and one that viii
make the law breakers tremble
in their boots before his term Of
office expires.-Mayfield Messen-

HUGHES APPEALS TO YOUNG
AMERICANS

New York, October 25-Charles f.
Hughes tonight told an audience in
the Academy of Music, Brooklyn, why
in his opinion, the young men Of the
Nation should support the Republican
ticket at the next election. Five chiei
reasons we're cited in answer to the
question:
What sort of cotItry does Young
American, vibrant with patriotism, de.
sire?"
Mr. Hughes answered the question
In part, az follows:
First, he wants a country respected
throughout the world. He wants O
country, which respects the dignity Of
its citizenship"
Second, Young America must de-
sir a country that is prepared for
every emergency.
Third. Young American, looking
ahead, must desire that when peace is
once more restored we shall contribute
to its maintenance by doing our
proper share to secure a practicable
and effective international organiza-
tion in the interests of peace.
Fourth. Young America wants gov
eminent In the open, by visible con-
stitutiOLal Instruments. not by unof-
fetal spokesman or invisible author
ity. He also wants a government not
sectional, but truly national.
Fifth, Young America wants in
dustrial preparedness"

HEADACHE DRUG
CAUSED DEATH
Mrs. Pattie Green Crawford, Daughter
Of the Late Thomas VI. Green OF
This City, Found Dead In Her
Apartment In Louisville
Burial at DanVllle.

Mrs. Pattle Green Crawford, ~
years old. wife of DR.. Clarence Il.
Crawford and a member of a promi-
ncnt Kentucky family, was found dead
in her apartment at the Cortlandt,
GAINESVILLE, by her husband at o'clocg
Monday afternoon. An investigation
conducted by her husband and Acting
Coroner William Kammerer developed
tnat maid had been sent for a head
ache drug at 3 O'Clock in the afternoon.
An overdose of the drug is believed
to have been taken by the patient and
a verdict TO this effect was given by
the coroner.
According to DIR. Crawford, who for
many years was member OF the
faculty at the Presbyterian Theological
Seminary, his wife had been in i'll
health for the past two years. During
that time two major operations were
performed on Mrs. Crawford, leaving
her in an extremely nervous state.
Suffered Constantly
DIR. Crawford said his wife suffered
constantly from violent headaches af-
ter her last operation, performed dur
ing the spring, and that for the past
five days she had been confined to her
bed. She was attended by DR.. Charles
X. Beck during her recent illness, who
prescribed a medicine for the relief of
the headaches. DIR. Crawford said his
wife had used most of this medicine
the day before, which probably caused
her to send out for q relief Mon
day afternoon.
Following a talk over the telephone
at 1870 o'clock Monday afternoon, DR..
Crawford said he attended to some I'M
finished business and reached the
apartment about o'clock. Mrs. Craw-
ford was found dead in bed. A coal
tar preparation for headaches was
found on table at her bedside. DR..
Crawford said he usually administered
the headache medicine himself, fearing
that his wife would take too large a
dose when suffering eXereme pain.
Daughter Of Editor
DIR. Crawford remarked that as a
strange coincidence, Mrs. Mamie But
Ter, Mrs. Crawford's mother, was the
victim of headaches quite similar to
that suffered by his wife, which result
ed in her death thirty years ago.
Mrs. Crawford was born in Mays
Vile, KY, and was the daughter of
Thomas M. Green, for many years edi-
