GREENFIELD MONSTER
CAUSES SAD TRAGEDY
KENTUCKY GIRL SHOOTS RIVAL
AND FORMER FRIEND, AND
CONFESSES MURDER.

A tale of Amazonian jealousy and
of Kentucky shooting that reveals
the bitterness that turks in the femi-
nine heart is that of the Staying OF
Miss Eva Gregory, beautiful 49,
year-old girl at Hardin, KY, by hel
rival. 24-year-old Miss Ella Monroe
who has confessed the deed.
In her confession Miss Monroe
said that a young man she loved had
been paying too much attention to
her rival and erstwhile friend, and
that she determined to put her out OF
the way.
Eva Gregory, she knew, was in the
habit of riding her saddle horse every
afternoon. Concealing herself in the
bushes Miss Monroe waited until her
rival rode up, then she fired her re
volyer at her. With Kentucky sure
ness of aim one shot did the business.
When the insensibIe form OF her
lovely rival fell from the horse and
the frightened animal dashed down
the road Ella Monroe took one look
of satisfaction and stole back through
the bushes and across the fields and
went home, first concealing her re-
volver.
The first intimation of the crime
was the arrival at the stable Oh the
riderless horse of Eva Gregory. Her
father at once set out to find MS
daughter. o,,,,
On account of the social proml-
nence and beauty of the girl the eX-
element ran high and great was the
speculation as to the perpetrator OF
the crime. ..-o
Great was every ones surprise
when the hounds trailed off to the
home of John Monroe, one Oh tne
prominent citizens of Hardin Springs
XIV. Mr.. Monroe, with his wife, TWO
sons and daughters, sat at dinner
when the sheriff arrived with Jlle
hounds shifting about the house IL
was the persistence of the dogs thaI
led the sheriff to place the "HoIe
family under arrest. ,,,o
Then Ella Monroe did brave
thing that stamps her as southern
girl of spirit. She admitted DONG
the shooting so that the rest OF tne e
family might not be Inconvenience
and embarrassed. Upon her state
ment the sheriff released the otner
members of the family, VINO We're
dumfounded at learning that E Ella
had killed her former friend; Ella
was placed in the Hardin springs

THE PAPER SITUATION
GROWS MORE SERIOUS
$50, 900 PAID NEW YORK CITY
FOR PRIVILEGE OF PICKING
PAPER FROM GARBAGE.

Some grades of paper have taken
another jump in prices, and are likely
to continue to rise.
Europe is not sending any rags
now as grist for American paper
mills, and as this country never de-
pended entirely upon it's own pulp
supply the book and magazine MAX
ers are likely to have to pay still
more for the stock.
AS an example of how the market
has been going, the bids for picking
the rags and waste paper from the
dumps in borough of Queens, New
York, were opened recently, and the
highest was $40, 1852 for the current
year, which was more than twice the
figure for last year, $8,216. Other
items will bring this bid up to at
least $4,000. The successful bid
ders were elated over their success
for they considered the privilege
likely to become profitable.
Since France and other European
countries, owing to the war, have
ceased sending rags to the United
States American manufacturers OF
high grade paper have had to put up
their prices, as they formerly depend
ed on foreign markets not only for
pulp of various grades, but also for
chemicals.
Paper for coating also went up
half a cent a pound, and there have
been steady rises on various grades.

THE AMERICAN DOLLAR
DEAR TO MEXICAN HEART
COURTESY INCREASES WHEN
THE AMERICANS SHOW WILL
INGNESS TO PAY.

COLUMBUS, n. Mex.-As is al
ways the case, wherever the Aneri-
can dollar goes it becomes dear to the
hearts of the people. Nor is Mexico
an execution to this rule. The Amer
lean dollar is rapidly finding it's place
in the hearts of the people of north
ern chihuahua, according to soldiers
and civilians arriving at the border
form Gen. Pershing's headquarters.
The people of the districts through
which the American troops passed at
first were coldly friendly, but when
they found that the Americans did
not commander their livestock and
food supplies as have Mexican armies
passing through the same district
their courtesy and friendliness in
creased.
The price, too, increased when the
inhabitants found that the American
had money and was willing to spend
it to satisfy his wants. An example
cited is that eggs were readily pur-
chasable for ten cents dozen by the
first troops passing through La AS
cuncion, but yesterday the price paid
reached fifty cents dozen.
The arrivals said that the word
that the Americans desired produce
and would pay for it passed rapidly
from town to town, and the farmers
had their wagons drawn up in the
main streets of the towns by the time
the second detachment of troops
reached them.

ATLANTA WILL ENTERTAIN
SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION
Place of Meeting and Dates Changed
on Account of Augusta Fire.

On account of the disastrous fire in
Augusta it was practically impossible
for that city to entertain the State
Sunday School Convention, which has
been advertised for May End, Bird and
4th. After a meeting of the Augusta
committee their chairman, DR., j. b..
Sewer, telegraphed Mr.. John j. Ea-
gan, president of the Georgia Sunday
School Association, requesting At
lanta to take the convention.
About sixty of the leading pastors
and superintendent of Atlanta got
together in a meeting, and after dis
cussing the matter it was unanimous
ly decided to have the convention in
Atlanta. AS the time was too short
to make arrangements for holding
the meeting on the May dates it was
decided, after a conference with the
officers of the Georgia Sunday School
Association, to change the dates to
June 18th, 18th and 18th.

"CHEERFUL" OLD PARTY
RECALLS COOLEST YEAR
SAYS Winter of 1916 Was a Hummer
and Winter fingered Long.

A Sunfield, Pa, citizen, who re-
members what happened 100 years
ago as well as though it was yester-
day. says in 1916 the winter was
much the same as this season, and
that the summer following was the
coolest on record. In May the ice
formed a half-inch thick on ponds,
frost and ice were common in June.
All summer long the wind blew from
the north, and the warm days did not
come. Mothers knit socks double
thickness for their their children and
made thick mittens, and the folks ate
buckwheat cakes for breakfast the
whole year through.
There is enough optimism in our
makp-un TO prevent us from getting
downhearted over the outlook. The
only inclination is to shed a sympa-
thetic tear for what happened TO the
folks who lived in 1916.
