HUSBAND SLASHED WIFE'S
FACE WITH JACK KNIFE
Earl Wilson In Oakland Jail For
Trial On Charge of Murder
Gus Assault.

Earl Wilson, a m.ner employ
ed in one of the coal workings
at VindeX, Garrett county, is in
the Garrett county Jail at Oak
land where he is being held
pending the result of injuries
he is charged with inflicting up
on his wife Sunday while under
the influence of moonshine wills
key. The assault took place at
the Wilson home at Vindex fol-
lowing a quarrel between the
wife and husband, which was
brought about when Wilson re-
turned to his home under the in
fluence of the liquor he had OBJ
tanned from one of the bootleg
gers operating in that part of
the county.
Wilson was arrested shortly after
the assault by Constable Sharpless at
an isolated and abandoned saw mill
situated some distance from Vindex.
The officer brought the man to Oak
land and he was committed to Jail
without bond until the extent of Mrs.
Wilson's injuries have been deter
mined.
Wilson, it is alleged, returned to
his home after an all-day drinking
bout among the hills in the vicinity of
Vindex and when he was taken to
task by his wife for his drinking hab-
its, it is alleged he drew jack-knife
from his pocekt and LITERAL cut her
face so terribly that she was unrec-
ognizable. After this inhuman act on
the part of the man it is also alleged
by the officer making the arrest that
he knocked her down and with her
face to the ground seized her by the
feet and dragged the woman over
a pile of cinders, whech entered the
wounds already made and increased
her agony and pain.
Constable Sharpless secured the
knife used by Wilson and it is now in
possession of States Attorney VIM.
r. Offutt. The instrument has a blade
three inches long and is as sharp as
a razor.
AS soon as Mrs. Wilson's condition.
is such that she can be brought to
Oakland, Wilson will be given a pre-
liminary hearing. Until that time
he will be held in jail

HEALTH PROTECTION
Anti-TyphOid Serum Used In
Western Md. Flooded Area.

DR.. John 5. Fulton, Director of the
State Department Of Health, saws:
Some idea of what the State DEPART
ment of Health does for the people of
Maryland can be gathered by estimat-
ing in dollars and cents, the amount
that has been saved to individuals and
communities in the State, in the last
SIX months by the care that is taken
to keep down diseases like typhoid.
1T is a joint responsibility of all
parts OF the Department, involving
protection Of water supplies, disposal
OF waste, protection of milk and other
foods from contamination, and safe
guarding the individual from infection
spread by careless carriers" But the
Departmental team work does not end
with community measures. By pro-
viding free typhoid vaccine, the De-
partment makes it possible for anv
individual in the State to be protected
against typhoid.
Since the first of January, 1924,
over 1900 complete doses of anti
typhoid vaccine have been prepared in
the laboratories of the State Depart
ment OF Health, for this purpose. Over
3OUO doses were hurried to Western
Maryland in the early spring, for use
among the people living in or near the
districts that were flooded during the
storms Of early April. The effect of
tins prompt action was shown in the
fact that not single case of typhoid
was reported from that district dur
ing the dangerous weeks before the
water supplies could be protected
again.
Suppose that one thousand of the
people who were exposed to the pos
slbllltles of the fever from the polut-
ed water supplies, had come down
with typhoid and then consider what
a saving has been effected not only
in health, but in money!
at has been estimated that each
case of typhoid costs the individual
or the family in which it occurs, not
less than 500 in medical and nurs-
ing care and in loss of income.
500 X 1000 equals 100000, repre-
sents the amount saved to the people
of the state by preventing the illness
alone, without considering the posi-
Bile death of many and the accom-
panylng pain and suffering and grief.
When it comes to the prevention
of the disease-it is within the power
of every individual in the State to
protect himself or herself from the
disease, by the simple device of vac
cination. Very little inconvenience is
caused by the treatment; and any
physician can get supply of the vac
cine by applying to Dr.. R. C. Salter,
Chief of the Bureau of Bacteriology
Of the State Department of Health,
16 West Saratoga Street, Baltimore.
This is the time of the year when
typhoid is likely to occur. If you
haven't protected yourself against it,
no 1T NOW

new ROAD HELPS
GARRETT COUNTY TOWN
State ThOrOughfare Opens Up
Picturesque Section Along
Garrett County Stream

Friendsville, an ancient town of
Western Maryland, at the confluence
of Bear Creek and the Youghiogheny
River, is no longer isolated. This is
because the new State road, branching
off the Keyser Ridge Oakland High
way, two miles east of Accident, and
following the right bank of Bear
Creek, distance of nearly seven
miles, has been opened. Before the
opening of the road, quaint old
Friendsville was almost inaccessible.
except by the Confluence & Oakland
Railroad.
The Railroad has train that makes
one roundtrip daily from Confluence
on the Pittsburgh Division of the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad.
Friendsville was settled by the we'll
known Friend family, of Garrett coun-
ty, before the American Revolution.
and it was thriving settlement be-
fore many of the larger towns with
in radius of so miles of it were even
clearings in the virgin forests, which
a century and half ago covered the
entire region.
In spite of its former isolation, due
to the public roads being so poor.
triendsville is an incorporated town
and has for many years been a thirty
ing village. 1t has a population of
about 500 and is the home of State
Senator John W. Mccullough, of Gar
rett county.
The two sections of the town are
connected by the iron bridge span
ming the Youghiogheny River, river
of Maryland, the waters of which
eventually reach the Gulf of Mexico.
The river went on a rampage during
the March flood period, but the dam
age was soon repaired
There is no more beautiful and tur-
bulent stream in Garrett County than
Bear Creek, nor any scenery wilder
or more picturesque than that of
Bear Creek Gorge, traversed by the
new State road.
There are innumerable ideal places
for camping and picnicking along the
new road.

Boston, Aug. 14-Settlements with more than 20 manufacturers, etc., were announced today by the settle ment committee arbitrating between the employers and members of union affiliated with the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America. This will mean the return to work on Mon- day of 2,500 of the 4,0O0 workers who went on strike on last Monday.

POLICE INSIST Mccoy
 SHOT WOMAN TO DEATH
Say They Will Disprove Former Fighters Claim That She Shot
 Herself.

Los Angeles, Aug. 14.--Evidence to be presented to the county grand
 jury today completely will disprove the story of Norman Selby (kid Me- .Coy) that Theresa w. Mors, latest of the ex-pugilists heart fancies. killed herself, police detectives declared.
 The bullet that killed the divorced wife of Albert Mors, wealthy antique dealer, entered her temple without any accompanying powder burns, an examination showed. Officers say that it must have been fired from distance of at least three feet, and that they declare would eliminate the suicide theory from the tangled skein of the affair.
 Further, it is pointed out, the body bore scare and bruises that indicated a struggle.
 Mccoy said Mrs. Mors attempted to stab herself with a butcher knife be- fore she used the pistol, but police brushing this statement aside, ask for an explanation of a cut on the lips which drove the teeth far into it, a deep wound under the left breast that might have been caused by a hatpin, cuts on the left arm and throat, and several other ~abrasions.

CURB REVIEW

New York, Aug. 1.-The feature of the trading on the New York curb was a sudden display of strength and activity in the copper mining group. Many of those stocks that have been inactive for some time were in urgent demand and there was broad in- quiry for stocks like Hecla and United Verdi extension. A long list of low priced issues were also prominent, some of them being traded in on . large scale and several making good advances This movement was | natural result of the prevailing belief that settlement of the German rep- arations question is close at hand and that an agreement will be followed by heavy foreign buying of copper metal.
 Interest ,n the petroleum group was largely centered in South Amer ica and Canadian issues. Royal Cam adian was in demand at around its recent high level and Lago Petroleum was heavily traded in at the prices reached on the advance few days ago. Imperial Oil of Canada VAS also strong. moving up over 1 point. Prairie oil and Gas had only frac- tional range and there uas little movement in stocks like Vacuum oil and other important Standard oil shares.
 rndust,ia, issues showed a strong ed tone. Dubilier moving up over q point and there vas renewed buying of Lehisn Coal which also made q gain of about cns point. Common wealth had anthoer display of activity advancing over points
