Kills Wife Aud Self.

What is believed to have been a murder
and suicide on Thursday morning of last
week, caused the deaths at their home near
Purdum, this county. of John W. Brown
and Mrs. Brown.
Lying side by side in a summer kitchen
at their home, their dead bodies were
found by the couples little grandson. A
bullet wound in Mrs Browns back and a
similar wound in Mr.. Browns chest told
how they met their death.
From all the circumstances surrounding
the case little doubt is held but that Mr..
Brown first shot his wife and then turned
the weapon on himself. Mr.. Brown was
70 years old and his wife several years
younger.
The aged couple were alone in their home
when the tragedy occurred. Shortly be-
fore their daughter and grandchild left the
house to make some purchases at nearby
store.
What prompted the act is not known
but it is believed to have been due to
temporary insanity. as it is said that Mr.
Brown had not been exactly himself fol
some time. A revolver recently purchased
by Mr.. Brown in Frederick was the weapon
used.
The couple are survived by four sons
and four daughters. all of Damascus dis

DEMOCRATIC EFFICIENCY

Secretary Baker recently reported
that complete lists of casualties had
been sent to Washington, and that 1000
clerks were busy in getting them out.
The daily casualty list at the time con-
tanned about 500 names, which sho VS.
that two clerks, by applying themselves
to their duties managed to get out to-
gether one name each day. But Mr..
Baker announced that 1000 more clerks
would be added to the force with view
to speeding up the final casualty re-
ports. With 1000 employees bending
their energies to that end the public
may reasonably expect a daily list OF
1000 names until the entire number are
printed. Some efficiency.

peace. Cotton is at present an enigma,
with the paradoxical possibility that
pace will result in lower prices. Manu-
factured articles, on the whole, declined
more rapidly in price after the close Of
the Civil War than basic commodities,
and the same phenomenon may occur
again. It is possible that labor, on the
average, could absorb ten percent in
wages in a year after the end OF hostil.
ities.. At any rate, our first six months
of peace in an extreme sense. and the
second six months, in very high de-
gree, represent from every angle Of the
employment problem an emergency
with which the government must deal
and with which it can probably best
deal by invoking q National spirit OF
patriotic CO operation, rather than by
an attempted perpetuation in peace
times of bureaucratic methods that
have been cheerfully accepted as a ne.
cessity Of war times"
