ENRAGED BECAUSE
TILTED, MAN SHOOTS
TWO AND SUICIDES

Trenton, N. j., Oct 7.-Enraged
because Mrs. Joseph Matthews re-
fused to elope with him, Charles M.
Shinn, of Philadelphia, today shot
and wounded Mrs. Matthews and
her father-in-law at their home in
Cookstown, brought the unconscious
woman to a hospital here and then
ended his own life with three bull
lets in the head.
Mrs. Matthews was reported to be
in critical condition. The father
ln-law was not seriously hurt.
Shinn went to the Matthews home
and demanded that Mrs. Matthews
come back to Philadelphia with him.
The elder Matthews interviewed,
according to the police and after a
struggle, Shinn shot MIN through the
shoulder He then turned the gun
on Mrs. Matthews, inflicting three
body wounds:
Apparently overcome by remorse,
he seized the woman, bundled her
into jitney bus, and told the driver
to hasten to Mercer County hopital
here, where he helped attendants
carry her into the operating room.
AS he started to walk out he stop
ped suddenly and drew his pistol
from his pocket. "This gun has got
me into lot of trouble today" he
was heard to say. IL might as well
make complete job Of it,"
He then shot himself three times
in the head, dying about an hour
later.

NEW METHOD OF TESTING
COTTON SEED. TERMINATION

Washington, Oct. "a new meth
cd of testing termination of cotton
seed is being tried out at various
southern experimental stations, it
was announced by the United States
Department of Agriculture, with the
result, it is expected that old methods
may be superseded. Cotton growers
would welcome a test method that
would give results as dependable as
the methods applied to testing corn
for termination, as the cotton seed
tests in use at the present time are
declared to be not very satisfactory
on most strains of cotton
There is always much poor cotton
seed for planting, both that in the
dealers hands and that kept by the
growers themselves, it was said, and
for that reason alone a good germi-
nation test is urgently needed. The
reason for the large quantity of bad
seed, it is said is that very little is
known about the effects of various
conditions on the vigor of the seed.

A NEW YORK WOMAN
ADOPTS JUVENIL
RUSSIAN PRINCESS

New York, Oct. 5.-A two and one
half year old countess, the grand
niece of a former car of Russia,
came to America yesterday. She was
Countess Reneede Mondesse, and
although she will be legally adopted
by Mrs. Wendell Phillips, a wealthy
New York widow she will retain her
formidable title.
"The name is one of the oldest and
greatest in Russia" Mrs. Phillips ex-
planned to reporters when the liner
President Polk arrived here with the
tiny refugee.
II do not wish it lost through her;
besides if conditions are properly ad-
justed again in Russia and she come
into her own. she will he one Of the
wealthiest persons in her country"
Mrs. Phillips says the child's father,
Count Henry de Mondesse, had been
shot when the Bolsheviki ransacked
the royal palace in Petrograd. Her
mother, Countess Claude died, of in
fluenza in Mrs. Phillips home here in
1921 and on her death bed she asked
Mrs. Phillips to adopt the child and
rear her.

general, with the approval of the gov
ernor, has extended the time for the
opening of the tax books for the col
lection of state, county and school
taxes for 1922 from October Is to
November Is.
The extension was granted because
of delays in getting out assessments
of corporations by the tax commits
sion and because of recent extension
of the time for paying 1921 state,
county and school taxes along with
other reasons, Mr.. Duncan said.
The tax commission has been busy
with the new revenue laws and short
delays were occasioned from this
heavy work, it was announced. The
auditors were not able to get their
books ready by the 18th of this monh
and as consqunc h comptroller

LOOK FOR PEACH TREE BoRER

The mound of earth placed around
the trunk of your peach trees should
now be removed and the tree exam
1ned at the edge of the old mound,
and if there are any signs of borers
they should be removed. An old ice
pick or sharp pointed wire should be
used. 1t is very necessary to remove
the mound between the 10th and goth
of October, not before or after.
In case you failed to mound your
trees in the summer it will be well
to remove about one inch of soil from
around the trees and remove all
borers from the tree.
