Mr.. Bohn E. Fawkes, northwestern
distributor for the Oldsmobile car,
said last week to the writer who
called on him in Minneapolis, tina,
we couldn't keep him out of Grand
Forks with a big stick. He believes
the OldGmobile car is the car that
truly sets the pace, and it should, he
says, have great demand in this part
of the country.
The Oldsmobile is a car Of double
character. 1t gives an idling pace
the driver. Mr.. Fawkes also con
tends hat it is an economical car,
and that the beautiful lines are
everything that is needed in design.
1t is a car suitable for h practical

SHOT THROUGH
HEART IN FIGHT
OVER A WOMAN
Murderer Makes Good Escape
With Lead of Thirty
Minutes

Quarreling over a woman, Andy
Carry to-day shot James Arthur
Watts, aged 81. through the heart
at Watts home. 126 Adams street
Mrs. Watts was sleeping in the next
room at the time.
Watts died a few minutes after the
crime and Carry made good his es-
cape. He got a half hour start on
the police.
Watts had been away from Steel
ton for few weeks and came back
last night. It is believed the two
men had an argument about some
thing which happened a few months
ago, before Carry left the town also.
Carry is said to have fed across
the lawn OF building owned by the
Bethlehem Steel Company and when
last seen was heading towards the
tracks Of the Philadelphia and Read
ing Railway. lie was not pursued for
thirty minutes, as the shooting was
not reported at first. Watts body
was removed to the Wilt undertaking
parlors.
1t is said Carry shot at Watts five
times, then chased Mrs. Watts into
a neighboring house and threatened
to take her life.

Cash AND CARRY
PLAN FAVORED BY
ADMINISTRATOR
Mccormick to Ask Grocers to
Fix Uniform Prices and
Discount

Plans for having all retail grocers
in the city ch rye a uniform price
for grocery staples sold On a cash
and carry" basis have been worked
out by the county food administra-
ton and will be put before the re-
tail grocers by Donald Mccormick
at a meeting called for tomorrow
night.
Mr.. Mccormick completed these
arrangements to-day after MANY.
conferences with leading erocers.
The food administrator proposes
that discount be granted purchas-
ers who take home their goods. This
plan would eliminate to a large ex-
tent the necessity of keeping ac-
counts.
At a meeting of all restaurant.
hotel. eating house and lunch room
proprietors of the city and county
this afternoon, Mr.. Mccormick will
compare the menus served by the
proprietors on meatless and wheat
less days in an effort to make the
menus on these days alike among
all the food dispensers. 1t is said
that because restaurant proprietors
are afraid they will lose trade by
complying with the food regulations
when other restaurant men ignore
them. the regulations are not oh
served as closely as they should be.
An agreement among all the res
taurant men to serve the same menu
on the taboo days will eliminate this
obstacle to food conservation.
