Famous Trials
Major Oneby

1t was during the period that Lord
Robert Raymond was Chief Justice Ct
England that the law and murder and
mapslaughter was brought to the degree
of precision in which we now find it, with
all its nice distinctions AMI refined quail
ifications. The practise then prevailed of
the jury finding the facts by a SPECIAL
verdict, and leaving the guilt or innocence
or the degree of guilt of the prisoner as
a questi-n of law to the judges
One Of the most interesting cases of
this kind was the trial of Major Oneby
for the murder of Mr. Cover. These two
gentlemen, noted for their fashion and
gallantry, had a dispute while playing at
hazard in a tavern in Drury Lane and
the prisoner call the deceased !'an i'm
pertient puppy The deceased answered
whatsoever call me so is a rascal The
| pris-ner then threw a bottle at the head
of over, which burshed his peruke as it
| passed, and beat some hair powder from
it.
At this the deceased tossed a candle at
the prisoner without hitting him. They
both drew their swords but were pr1-
vented by the company from fighting, and
they again sat down TO play At the ex-
piration of an hour the deceased said to
| the prisoner, I'VE, have had hot words,

offering him his hand To this the pris-

the company had all left the room eX-
/ cept the prisoner who, addressing over,
said, Young man, come back, 1 have
something to say to you"
Cover returned Immediately the door
closed and the clashng of swords was
heard When the company returned they
found that Cover had been run through
the body by Oneby and died the next
day The deceased on his death bed, be
ing asked II he though he received his
wound in a manner called fair" among
swordsmen, answered II think did"
At the trial the jury found that from

this was murder or manusiaughter they

the small floral patterns are first

many shades, from white through the
cream tones to dark greens, blues and

There are many patterns where the
motifs are rather closely placed, and
others where they trail over more
surface.
Quaint in their old time charm are
printed sateens, also with background
in a variety of color, and oldefashioned
tiny flower motifs. These are frequent

In view of the fact that it is n the
southern states that most of the lynch
ings occur there is nothing so strong
that the chief opposition to he anti
lynching law should come from tho
members in congress from that part Of
the country. 1t is unfortunate that that
idea of administering justice has gotten
such a grip unon the southern people,
where It ary,ears to have developed from
the treatment accorded the blacks. Ger
tain states are worse than others but
there fails to he recognized the better
ment that would result in general re-
spect for law through the abolition Of
such practice.
Apparently the worse Of the southern
states in respect to lynching do not give
much consideration to the position Of
the ornosition. Evidently they DO not
company the lynching spirit or they
would be DESTROYS of eliminating them.
According to statistics which have
been kept lynchings and homicides keep
close company. The states which arc
noted for their mob rule are the ones
where there are the most murders. Life
and law seem 70 get little respect. Geor-
gia which has had 52s lynchings during
a period Of IS years has homicide rate
in 1920 in the cities Of Atlanta and Sa-
vannah of 400 and 440 respectively &c
the million Of population. The homicide
rate in the city of Memphis was 634 tC
the million population though the lynch
ings in Tennessee were but 1913 but the
contrast TO other and much more thickly
populated states Is marked when it Is
shown that New York had but two
lyuchings in 35 years and its homicide
rate was but SO to a million population
This contrast holds good between other
states where the lynching habit prevail:

REDUCING POWER COSTS.

A commission on the necessaries of
life has been at work for the state of
Massachusetts, for considerable time
in an endeavor to bring about relief in
different directions, and there are rea-
sons to believe that II has done good
work. In its last report 1t refers to the
fact that difficulties have been overcome
in the past and there is no reason to be-
leve but what the people of that state
will be able to render quite as efficient
service in their own behalf in the pres
emit and in the future. Nevertheless 1t
points out the need of keeping down the
cost of living to a point where 1t will
compare with other sections Of the
country and It also directs attention to
the Importance Of reducing the power
cost for manufacturing establishments
in New England through the establish
rnent of hydro electric plants and the
distribution Of the electricity over long
distances.
Whist it has in mind is the system of
power distribution contemplated for the
Atlantic coast north of Washington in
which Norwich would be a part. 1t ap-
preciates the fact that the system Is
nevertheless fully aware Of the possibil-
tiles and the benefits that it would give.
II is time that serious attention should
be given to the great amount of water
power that is going to waste every day
in this part Of the country. Not only
is it possible for mills and factories to
establish their own hydro electric plants
but there are the natural advantages
which can be developed to the point
where service can be furnished over a
long distance as has been repeatedly
demonstrated In this part of the coun-
try. While much has been done there
is still excellent opportunities for great
er efforts. Fuel prices and the cost Of
transportation have given the users OF
power in New England great bother
There may be some relief from 1t through
reduced costs and rates but there seems
to be an even greater benefit to be OBJ
tanned through the development Of elec-
trfcal energy and its distribution tc
pints where It can best be utilized.
Massachusetts, isn't the only state
where serious attention deserves to b.
directed to this matter for the reduct OF
Of power costs.

HOW 70 MEND riggs Ar HOME

Several methods Of home mending
Of rugs and carpets have been tested
in the nited States Department of Ag-
riculture, which gives the following
suggestions:
Select woods for mending to match
those of the rug in color and texture
if possible. These may be raveled
from scraps of carpet, or bough from
carpet dealers, or if necessary heavy
knitting yarns may be dyed to match.
Carpet yarns are SITTER and more dur
able than ordinary woods and should
be used if obtainable. A stout needle
with a large eye will, of course, be
needed, and curved scissors are par
ticularly convenient for clipping the
threads when, mending a rug or car
pet with velvety pile.
Darn ingram carpet with the over
and-under stitch used in mending
stockings, and work in the design on
this background.
In pile rugs, such as Brussels. VIII
ton and some kinds of oriental weaves,
replace the linen, jute, or cotton back
ing first and then work in the pileing
with colored yarns. Dust how to make
/ the pile stitch depends on the texture
of the rug, but a good method can
| quickly be developed by experimenting
1t is generally made by knotting the
yarn around the warp in such a way
that it holds firmly and the ends stick
| up to form the velvety surface of the
rug. These ends can be clipped of
after each stitch Is taken, or they car
all be sheared at once after the en-
tire hole is filled

are much worn.
slipon sweaters without belts are
considered smartest for the Palm

Knitted capes and other types for
the South have fur, collars.
Faggoting is used for dresses Of the
lingerie type, as well as on lingerie.
Gray suede pumps are worn with
wooden stockings of a matching col
or.
Muffs appear with more frequency.
Both the square and the melon types
are used.
Clusters of forget me nots or small
grapes are arranged in the Japanese
style and worn over the ears at eve
ning functions.
Double strands of pearls or two
separate strings, one longer than the
other, are popular for wear with an
afternoon gown.
American broadtail is being used
just the same as duvetyn or other ma
terial contrast, for inlay trimming on
coats of modish fabrics.
Wool stockings, may be found in a
silk mixture that is quite comfortable
to many women who cannot bear the
feeling of all wool fabrics next to
the skin.
To be distinctive one does not need
expensive clothing. A face radiating

carried with grace and dignity is its
own aristocracy. Every woman car

that 1t should be accomplished in way
that would not result adversely TO the
other countries, or at least to no greater
extent than is necessary.
Even though conditions there result
from the war 1t is evident that Europe
stands as a unit. Whatever threatens
one Of the countries at the present time
is bound to have its effect upon several
Of the others. 1t seems entirely within
the limits of reason therefore that there
should be a general participation in an
economic gathering Of the representa-
tives Of the nations. This country has
no desire to participate in European af-
fairs but because of the war loans to
Europe 1t Is only natural that 1t should
be invited to participate or that it should
be DESTROYS Of lending an ear even
though It is unwilling to try to direct

FAN NOVELTIES

A new idea has been introduced in
connection with fans-that of combin-
ing feathers with spangles and paint
ed designs. One model shows a bird
perched on a Towering branch being
painted, while the tail covering half
the fan, is in ostrich flues that shade
from orange to almost a lemon yell
low
In another model, rose color os-
trich flues are stitched down to out
line a basket. Silken rosebuds are US
81 to complete the embroidery design.
Again a plume is used on net with
tips for a border. A line of irr1descent
spangles is carried up the center of
the plume and around the edge of the
fan, below the tips
Gold thread and colored embroidery
appear on black lace and net fans
Some smart effects are achieved too
when the black lace is used alone. Sc
quins are not neglected, sometimes be-
ing combined with ostrich borders
sometimes with plain net borders
1t is interesting to note that in spite
of all the novelties that have been in
troduced, regulation ostrich fans are
said to have sold in larger numbers
this year than last.
