Fatal Shooting Sunday Night

John Moody, colored, who lived at
No. 8 Griffith Street., was shot and
fatally wounded on Sunday night by
Mrs. Nellie DENLY, also colored, in her
home at No. 10 Cumberland Avenue.
Moody died in the Salem County hos
pital the following morning.
Mrs. DENNY, together with her hus-
band, the latter as a material witness,
were held without bail for the Grand
Jury.
Moody, it is understood, has not
been supporting his wife and two chill
dren, so she abandoned her home on
Griffith Street and went to live with
Mrs. DENLY.
On Sunday Moody went to the
Demby home and demanded to see
his wife and children.
His wife refused to talk with HIM
and he was refused admittance to the
house. He effected ar entrance, how
V and Mrs. Moody says he started
after her with a knife and threatened
her. She went into another room and
locked the door. He then started
after Mrs. DENNY who warned HIM TO
keep away from her and leave the
house. He continued to follow her,
however, and she ran upstairs and Sc
cured a revolver from a trunk. Taking
a stand at the head of the stairs sne
fired four shots at the man, wounding
i'm in the stomach, back, foot and
arm.
Officers Shores and Moore were
quickly on the scene of the shooting
and arrested Mrs. DENLY and her hus-
band. Mrs. DENNY admitted the
shooting but claimed it was in self
defense.
Word was sent to Salem County Ne
mortal Hospital for the ambulance and
Moody was taken to Salem. DR.. w.
P. Giendon, of Bridgeton, was sum-
moned and late Sunday evening re-
moved the bullets, but the man was
in such a condition that he died earl
Monday morning.
The body was brought back to
Penns Grove and this (Fridav) morn
ing was shipped to Trenton where
e~latives reside.

Stabbing ARRAY After Party

There was an Italian party on
Cumberland Street on Sunday night
which broke up in a row. Francesca
Laroso and Nincenzo Paroti, two OF
the guests, claimed they were way
laid near the Moose Home, on South
Broad Street, by an unknown a~ssail-
ant after the party broke up and serl-
ously cut about the body with a knife.
Both men were taken to the Salem
County hospital for treatment for
severe cuts across the breast and
stomach.
There is a suspicion that the men
had a fight between themselves, as
they had no idea who their assailant
was and there has been no clue found
of the man. Sheriff Brandriff IS hold
ing them as witnesses, however, IN
case their assailant should be found.
On Tuesday night physicians at the
hospital pronounced them both out OF
danger and they were removed to the
County Jail.

ENOCH S. FOGG

Woodstown, September A, 1847. He
was educated in the public and private

HIGH NECKS ON NEW BLOUSES
French Models for Spring Wear Fea-
ture Short Sleeves, Affording
New Note.

Many Of the French blouses for
spring have the high neckline. This
is combined with saucy, short sleeves
and gives 1921 blouses quite a differ
ent and piquant look. The long
sleeve and low neck combination is
familiar; so is the short sleeve and
low neckline. But the high, close col
lar combined with an elbow sleeve is
distinctly new, and has that special
smartness that any very new and diff
ferent mode always has at the be-
ginning of a season. A French tie
back blouse in gentian blue silk crepe
has a tall stock collar finished at the
TOP with a narrow plated frill of
white net. The elbow sleeves (set
into armholes), have plated frills of
the crepe and under them plated net
frills-a very soft and dainty effect.
The blouse and the tall collar button
at the back with round crochet but
tons and tiny cord loops.
Sheer linen blouses are made in the
same way, with elbow sleeves and tall
stock collar and fastening down the
back.

Little French Nosegay Provides
Charming Decoration.
Tiny Flowers May Be Had in Prae-
ticaIiy All Shades and Tint
Combinations.

The costume which, worn since fall
or early winter, has begun to lose
some of its smartnesS, can be fresh
ened up amazingly by the use of new
accessories, suggests the Christian
Science Monitor.
For example. there are the little
French nOsegays which add so becom-
ing a note of color to the frOck OF
dark velvet, duvetyn or satin. Even
a blue serge dress is much improved
by the addition of one of these little
knots of flowers, if the right sort be
chosen. One which added greatly to
the effect of a frock Of dark brown
velvet was composed Of a rose and
bud of blush pink velvet, with leaves
of light and dark green, a sprig OF
forget-me-nots, and two dull orange
buds. Needless to say, these flowers
were all very small. The stems were
wound with silver thread, and the
nosegay was worn pinned high on the
right shoulder.
These little flowers may be had In
practically all shades and color COM
binatiOns, and the woman who finds it
advisable to wear plain, dark dresses
can wear a nosegay of the colors most
becoming to her, ard so profit by their
effect The girl who is wearing an
eton suit as an office dress uses
very frilly chemiSette instead of
blouse, with a nosegay tucked into the
lace frills.
Just little touch, but a very pleas
ing one is given by the new cOlored

Gently declared that he expected these
handkerchiefs to enjoy great popular
ity during the spring and summer, but
deplored the fact that the samples
which he had imported, ard which
were of linen, could not be duplicated
for a reasonable price unless cotton
goods were used. However, these at
tractive little handkerchiefS are very
easy to make, and the woman who is
clever with her needle can add to her
store of them in but few evenings.
They are best made of handkerchief
linen, and as remnants car be we'll
utilized in their making, no great eX-
pense is attached to them. The new
est ones are not hemstitched; when
making them, two threads should be
drawn where the hemstitching would
ordinarily come, and in their place IS
drawn heavier thread of a contrast
ing color, or of black or white. The
hem is then put in, and at one corner
the thread which has been drawn
through is sewn up through the hand
kerchief for an inch or two and ended
in a small embroidered flower or in an
initial.
