Mrs. Daniels Welcomes Guests.
Mrs. Daniels. ranking hostess of the
Navy Department, was naturally not
able to join her guests until late in
the evening, as she had to welcome
the ball guests at the head of the
receiving line. She was her gracious,
smiling, cordial self, looking very
well in a handsome gown OF gold and
white brocade. worn with diamonds
ornaments. Mrs. Albert W. Niblack,
chairman of the ball committee, was
next in line, in a wonderful gown OF
jets and crystals, the lower part OF
the skirt being solid jets forming a
point in front and back, and the upper
part of crystals arranged to meet the
jet. A strip of orange velvet hung
from the waistline at the back to the
bottom OF the medium length train,
and ended with large t4ssel of the
jets and crystals. The bodice was fin
ished with some rare lace, and Mrs.
Nihlack's ornaments were diamonds.
Mrs. Koontz, wife of Admiral

NO CLUE TO MURDERERS.
ASSOCIATED Negro Press)


Washington, N. c., Nov. 20.--Police
officials of Pitt county are baffled in
their attempts to find clue which
might lead to discovering the iden-
tity of the murder of two Negro
men, whose, bodies were found in
Tranters Creek, where they evident
ly had been thrown several days ago.
Relatives of the two young men
state that they left home about a
week ago on a hunting trip. When
they did not return at the end of two
days, searching parties were or
ganized One of these parties found
the bodies in the creek. Upon ex-
animation it was found that both of
the boys had been shot. Some hold
the theory that the two Negroes
stumbled upon a still and that the
operators put them out of the way.
