NEAR TRAGEDY.
soused With Moonshine, Man Shoots
At Wife.

The Oxford Press gives the follow
ing account of near tragedy in the
Gray Horse section, where craze
producing moonshine had been In
dulged in freely:
Gray Horse moonshine is alleged
to be responsible for a shooting in
the home of Clarence Alexander
Sunday afternoon. 1t is said that
he had been imbibing freely and
shot at his wife, the pellets striking
her on the arm. DIR. Dodson, Rising
Sun, Md gave medical service and
left Mrs. Alexander as comfortable
as woman could be under such har-
rowing conditions.
The Alexanders reside near Gray
Horse, a locally named spot near the
Horseshoe wilderness, West Noting
ham township, deriving the name
from the natural twist of the Octo-
raro forming complete horseshoe.
There is not much to Gray Horse ex-
cept the M. e. Church that is perch
ed high on bluff. Mason and Dix
on line runs through the church
building, the preacher standing in
Pennsylvania and the audience sit
ting in Maryland. Outdoors is wild
and dreary the year round, place
suitable for the habitation of noon
sinners and other folk who cling to
the ways Of hermits.
With such a setting, parts Of
which are unbroken by strangers and
missionaries, the invitation to tarry
in the shade is strong. It is whis-
pered that Gray Horse is one Of the
best stations ON the Moonshine Trail
from the headwaSers Of Octoraro
Creek to the Horseshoe country. It's
location Is real handy and has been
studied well by the "shine" produc-
ers who. If pursued by law hounds,
could step over into Maryland or
Pennsylvania. Again, it maybe that
a portion Of the 1000 pounds Of
sugar said to be received frequently
at Nottingham station finds its way
into that part of the greenbriar land.
Alexander is employed in the pa
per mill. near Rising Sun, Md. He
imagined he was through with life
and, 1t is said, secured his gun and
shot his wife instead of himself. His
wife became greatly excited over his
first threat. that he intended to shoot
himself, and threw herself upon him
to prevent it.
Nothing has been done to Alexan-
der by the law authorities.

present a beautiful appearance al
night, brilliantly lighted by myriad
of electric lights, with prettily decor
ated booths with wares Of every con-
ceivable kind displayed for sale.
That the community spirit has
been displayed by residents of this
entire neighborhood is borne out by
the piles Of exquisite fancy articles,
novelties, cakes, etc., etc., that have
been voluntarily contributed, dis
played upon the tables and finding
ready sales.
Too much praise cannot be given
the ladies Of the community who
have given assistance at the booths
and in various other ways. helping
boost the carnival, in addition to
fancy work made and contributed,
cakes, candy, bread and other good
things made that are being disposed
of at good prices: And the liberal
manner in which the carnival is being
patronized by the general public is
shown by the receipts that are
mounting up.

been the music. Elkton band fur
nishing this on the opening night.

that we have not mentioned!

was spoiled by rain early in the
evening, but things got under way
about $3.50 with fair sized crowd
and workers at the various booths
made things hum, SO that despite un-
favorable conditions receipts for the
evening were $4S1. Saturday nights

sUsQUEHANNA LEAGUE ExPEN-
SIVE.

President Jewell recently COM
municated with all managers of the
Susquehanna League relative to
changes which have been suggested
for next season.
Quite general objection has been
offered to the number Of outside
players being employed and the
large sums paid them. AS we always
stoutly maintained this policy will
land the league on the rocks. Pres
ident-Jewell suggests maximum Of
$75 game for players and the use
OF six home boys. Experience has
shown that even this figure is un-
wisely high for Bel Air team.
The suggestion has been made
that two games a week be played,
put this very properly was disap-
proved by Mr.. Jewell.
Certain it is, some radical re-
forms must be made If the league is
to survive.-Bel Air Agis.
