Nebraska Clubwomen Try to Taboo
"Shimmying" Dances.

OMAHA, Nebr., February 20 CR.-
The Charleston is, the object of criti-
cism and attack by Nebraska club
women and social organizations.
At North Platte they have proposed
ar ordinance forbidding man to
place his arm more than half way
around his partner. And the welfare
board says it is aimed directly at the
Charleston.
The Lincoln city attorney has been
asked to enforce the ordinance against
vulgar dances-another rap at the
Charleston, it is claimed. ''Shim-
mying' would also be taboo under the
measure and unmarried persons under
y would have to register when they
went to public dances.

Mother Sick From
Snake Bite; Kills
Self and Children

Casa Grande, Ariz., May 6.-Faced
by the prospect of slow and horrible
death for herself and starvation for
her two small daughters, aged four
months and three years, Mrs. E. j.
Cox shot and killed her offspring and
then ended her own life with a rifle on
a ranch % miles from here Tuesday.
The tragedy was discovered by Cox
when he returned to his desert home
stead Wednesday after an absence of
more than a week. A blood stained
diary told of the tragedy that had its
inception Sunday when Mrs. Cox was
struck on the foot by rattlesnake.
Failing to get relief from the pain by
home remedies, the woman slit the
wound with penknife, the diary said.
In doing so she severed an artery and
suffered the loss of large amount of
blood.
She was too weakened to start the
automobile and go for aid to the near
est neighbors, seven miles away, the
weakly scrawled dairy said. She fired
many rifle shots in an attempt to at
tract attention. Knowing, the dairy
declared, that she would be dead and
her children starved to death before
Cox would return, she fired bullet
into the heart of each of her children
and then turned the rifle on herself.
