Queer MaZady
Spreads Among
Fox-TroHers

The dancers on the Eastern Shore
OF Maryland are much concerned
over a new contagion, the FOX trot
blister that has broken out among
them and which threatens to result
in a ban on dancing in that section
unless a remedy is found to check
the spread Of the malady.
The fox trot blister is a form OF
eczema or skin eruption for which
the peninsula physicians have as yet
failed to find a remedy. 1t is found
principally among those who dance
the intimate" dances, which bring
the faces OF the dancers in close con-
tact. Thus the spread OF the nalady
is easy. The disease breaks out on
the face. causing sores or blisters.
The fox trot blister" first made
its appearance at the Delaware and
Maryland seashore resorts and soon
spread to the smart set of the penin-
sula. 1t is said that some of the
dancing pavilion managers are con-
templatlng cutting out certain styles

Poor "Hubby" Wants Share
Of Money Wife Saved

San Francisco.-Has a man any
interest in the money his wife saves
from his salary and banks in ,her
own name?
This question is to be decided by
some Judge of the Superior Court

Bammann against Henry y. Bam-
mann, officer OF a local steamship

Mrs. Bammann filed suit for di-
vorce some time ago alleging eX-
treme cruelty, the chief allegation
being her husbands alleged secret
pro-German sympathies.
Bammann in his answer says the
charge against him is both false and
malicious. He says the family trou-
Bile is due TO his savings. During
their fifteen years OF married life
he says his wife has banked s2.25O
saved from his wages. The bank
account is in her name Recently
he asked her for $3.50 to pay the
funeral expenses of his father and
mother and she refused.
Bammann contends that he has a
community interest in the money
inasmuch as he earned II and he has
asked the court to restrain his wife
from withdrawing it and to award
him an equal share.

in North Carolina during May. Two
hundred and twenty were cut up in
North and South Carolina which
constitutes record for the Green's
boro revenue district.
Down here they make two kinds
OF whisky-'monkey rum" which has
a rich brown color similar to mo-
lasses. and corn whisky, which IS
colorless, IKE water or gasoline, ac-
quirins a slight yellow tint with age.
Monkey rum" is the favorite drink
Of the eastern part of the State,
while in the western half in the sec

as The Dark Corner" corn whisky
Is favored
Most OF the "blockadng' is in the
counties OF Orange. Stokes, Ashe.
Wilkes, Mcdowell and Buncombe.
Pickens and Greenville counties are
the best whisky producers Of South
Carolina. In all these counties the
revenue officers destroy an average
of one still a day.

man in North Carolina is Deputy
Collector T. NJ. Arrowsmlth, who op-
crates from Hillsboro through Orange

Arrowsmith told me lawlessness-

less in this part OF the country than
elsewhere in the noonshine belt. Light
court sentences are held responsible.
we have very few shootipgs in
this part OF the State" he said: "the
moonshiners know us, and they are
quite friendly when we meet them
in town or along the roads. Most of
them surrender readily when we cap
ture them with the goods. preferring
to spend thirty days in Jail for moon
shining to running the risk of being
sent to the penitentiary for a term
OF years for shooting at us.
Occasionally, however, we have
trouble. Recently six officers went
up TO still in the dead of night and
surprised ten uoonshiners at work
The ten saw that they outnumbered
the officers, and stood pat One of
them ordered the officers to throw
down their arms All Of them did
so but one. F. c. Talbot. The moon
sinner took deliberate aim and shot
him in the knee, Gripping him for
