WOUNDED MAN IS
SINKING STEADILY
IN HOSPITAL HERE
Lee Carr Shot ut Maysllck Dance
Thursday Night VIII Not Likely
Recover From Wound Attend
Ing Physicians Think.

Lee Carr, of Washington Court
House, Ohio, district manager for the
Sunlight Creamery Company, with
headquarters in Maysville, is at the
point Of death at Haywood Hospital
with gun shot wound In his abdo-
men inflicted at dance at Mayslick
Thursday evening by an unknown
man supposed to be friend of a
young man with whom Carr is said
to have had trouble earlier in the eve
ming.
Some trouble arose between Carr
and young man from Nicholas coun-
ty early in the evening when an at
tempt was made to divide couple
dancing by Carr and Carr is said to
have struck the Nicholas county man
in the face knocking him to the floor.
Particulars of the shooting which
happened after this trouble and on
the outside of the dance hall are hard
to get. Lucy Richie and Hazel Spur
geon, Maysville girls who accompan-
led Carr to Mayslick, say that during
an intermission they with Carr and
another young man took an automo-
bile ride and returning to the dance
hall Carr remarked that the crowd
was getting a little rough and the
girls suggested going home. AS the
auto drove up in front of the dance
hall, the girls say young man, step
ped up to the auto and asked Carr If
he wanted to start something and
Carr replied that he did not but that
if he had to he could whereupon the
yonug man drew a revolver and fired
striking Carr in the abdomen. The
girls say they are positive that the
man who shot Carr was not the one
with whom he had trouble previously
Sheriff Galbreath and Stenographer
R. B. Adair went to the hospital Fri
day morning at II o'clock and endeav-
ored to get statement from Carr but
he said he had no statement to make
and told the sheriff that he did not
know the man who shot him.
Physicians operated Friday morn
ing. Carr's bowels are punctured and
there is little hope for his recovery.

ward with God for King and Father

The royalists count on making her
funeral an occasion for a monarchist
demonstration, and the laborites are
threatening to strike to stop the rail-

HEADING OFF INSANITY

Largely as result of the war. 1t
has been found that timely treatment
given to children who are nervous,
restless or otherwise abnormal will
enable them to readjust their atti-
tude toward life so as to avoid falling
victim to insanity ,melancholia and
similar ills. DR.. Loren Johnson,
speaking In Washington, said: The
work with the children is very i'm
portant, as the roots Of the wreckage
of human lives in jails and asylums
lead back to childhood and infancy.
II children were brought to mental
clinics, and their parents would take
the advice they receive there, in 20
years insane asylums would become
almost unnecessary"
