Chauffeur Threatened
Mrs. Collins stated to the investi-
eating officers that the two men
first made their appearance at her
residence on September 2. begging
for something to eat. They dis
dained the food offered them. she
said. A short time later, on the
same day. one of the same two men
was discovered in the garage of the
Collins family by Cliff Moore, the
chauffeur, whose life, she said, was
threatened at that time If he called
the police. The men escaped but
carried the motometer of the car
with them.
Moore was later sent to the bust
ness district in the family car on
an errand and was stopped on the
way on Twenty-first street, between
Avenues F and G, by the two men,
who offered to sell the chauffeur
the motometer stolen by them earli
car. Moore declared to the officers
that he recognized the meter. but
got in the car with the men at their
request to go and look at other
specimens of autometers.
Beaten and Robbed
Moore said that instead of going
to their place of business, as they
had promised. the men took him out
Avenue F and onto the Green
Springs road. Moore said that he
realized his folly at that time, and
attempted to escape, although the
car in which he was being carried
was going too fast for him to jump.
After reaching a lonely spot, the ne
gro said that he was taken out of
the car and tied to a tree with an
old rubber innertube and logged
with a second tube, the valve
of which knocked several holes in
his head from the force of the blows
administered him. Moore also al
leges that the men robbed him of
so cents, all the money he had on

FAMOUS NEGRO ORCHESTRA
At EDGEWOOD PARK

Williams Saxophone orchestra, the
famous colored organization from
Winchester, Ky, have been engaged
by the management of Edgewood
park to play for the dances for the
balance of this week. They opened
their engagement last night and
played to a capacity house.
This famous organization created
a sensation when they appeared at
Edgewood last summer. They play
music as only negroes can play,
something entirely different to any
other orchestra. They intersperse
their instrumental efforts with sing
ing and dancing and reminds one of
the big cabaret features. Their Of
fering alone is worth the price of
admission.

You can enjoy a delightful sham

very trifing cost, if you get from
your druggist a package Of can
throx and dissolve a teaspoonful in
a cup of hot water. This makes a
full cup of shampoo liquid-enough
SO 1t is easy to apply it to all the

head. Your shampoo is now ready.
Just pour little at a time on the
scalp and hair until both are entirely
covered by the daintily perfumed
preparation that thoroughly dis
solves and removes every bit of
dandruff, excess oil and dirt. After
rinsing, the hair dries quickly with
a .fiuffiness that makes it seem
heavier than it is, and takes on
rich luster and a softness that
