Football Deaths
IL During Season

Chicago, Nov. 26.-By Associ-
ated Press. Football claimed 10
victims during the 1921 season,
which closed with Thanksgiving
day games according to reports to
the Associated Press today.
The death list was three less
than 1920 and three above the toll
of two years ago. Ten lives were
lost as the result of games in 1918,
12 in 1917, Is In 1916 and Is in
1915.
AS in former years, the majority
OF youths killed were members OF
high school teams. The figures
apparently uphold the contention
OF football experts that proper
training and physical condition
greatly minimize the danger of the
game, for only one of the players
killed was member of a college
eleven. One was semi-profes-
sional player.

Investors Turn
To Governments
For Investment

New York, Nov. 26.--Invest-
ment buying of government bonds
and other high class securities In
heavy volume was the striking
feature of the week on the stock
exchange, the share list retaining
most OF its recent uncertain char
acteristics.
A majority Of the liberty issues
continued to rise to new high
prices for the year ard first loort-
gage issues or the leading railway
systems also registered more or
less substantial gains, while sec
ondary railway bonds were pur-
chased for their speculative pcssi-
bi1ities.
Industrial shares, other II an
those under professional control,
were little changed and the oils
fluctuated within narrow bounds,
except in isolated instances where
the short interests seemed espe-
cially vulnerable to attack. Con-
trary movements occurred in the
money market, rates for mercan-
tile paper relaxing, while much OF
the weeks demand money was
placed at per cent, despite the
steady inflow Of funds from inter-
ior sources.
An echo Of the armament con-
ference-the British foreign min
ister's alluslon to Frances mill

ment In the foreign exchange mar
ket, the rate on Paris weakening
perceptibly. German marks again
reacted, although assurances that

WOMEN IN CHARGE
OF ELECTION HELD
ON THREE-MILL TAX

Greenville, May 16.-(Special) For
the first time women voters acted as
managers and clerks in an election
here today. 1t was the first time that
many of Greenville's female citizens
exercised their right of suffrage. With
the presence of the women the male
voters parked their stogies on the cut
side of the voting precinct and entered
with uncovered heads, silent and the
absence of the usual Joke telling pc.
riod" was particularly noticeable.
The election was to decide whether
or not the property owners of the
Greenville school district should pay
special three mill school tax. The
female clerks said, "the ballots against
the proposition were so few that 1t
required microscope to locate them"
The result of the election shows con-
culsively that the women are impor-
tant factors in deciding governmental
questions in Greenville. The women
are in favor of good schools, and so
are we men, said one male voter.
All elections are more or less full
of funny incidents, and this one was
not an exception, for a well-known To-
cal druggist asked his wife If she
had signed her name to the ballot. She
quickly answered, with my mark, the
same as you used to do. before we had
schools"

LITTLE OAK CITIZEN
TAKES HIS OWN LIFE

Troy, May 17.-(Special) 1.-The COM
munity of Little Oak was shocked Sun
day when the fact became known that
John w. Snider, one of the most proni-
nent of it's citizens, had committed sui
eide Mr. Snider shot himself with his
pistol. His wife had gone to attend Sum
day school service and church at the Lit
tie Oak church, and he was alone at the
time of the deed.
When Mrs Snider returned home she
went into her room and changed her
clothes preparatory to resuming her
household duties. She noticed Mr.. Snider
sitting very still in his chair and as he
did not answer her call she went UP
close and discovered pool of blood on
the floor. His head was bowed over on
his chest, and when she stopped she saw
a CHASTITY wound in his forehead, just be-
meath his hat brim. The neighbours were
called and officers from Troy summoned,
but nothing could be done, as death had
been instantaneous. No inquest was held.
The pistol lay between Mr.. Snider's
feet, as it had fallen from his hand.
Tho powder stains on his forehead showed
that he had pressed the pistol close to
his head when he fired. The bullet was
found just underneath the skin at the
back of his head.
The death of beloved daughter. who
had Just entered wonanhood, few
months ago, had caused Mr.. Snider
great deal Of grief and he was given to
brooding spells. No other cause is known
for the act He was 6S years old and
successful, Industrious farmer, we'll liked
by all.
His wife and one son. Prof Earl
Snider, survive him.

Eve was losing heavily at cards. The
country neighbor and she were playing
with Julian Vandaveer and the other
woman. and were being badly beaten.
Eve did not know that Julian earned
a quite remunerative living at this
game"
Her guardian, Darlington BeIlairs,
had no sympathy with card losers, too.
He could be unbelieyably stingy. No
help doubt possibly be expected from
that quarter.
The game went on. Things went
from bad to worse. Eve-flushed
rather hard of eye, her mouth drawn
into a thin, unbecoming line-played
desperately.
Heaven alone knows how I'll meet

At that moment she thought she
hated Darlington Bellairs, her cautious
guardian. He was so rich, so prosper

several evenings losses, including to-

A vague thought began to form in
Ewes active brain. If he would not
let her have the money, she must take
it! She was not going to be disgraced

Julian Vandaveer would exact pay

did not wish to be indebted to him. Be-
