Colored man who had assaulted her
Mrs. c. V. Jacobs, SO, wife Of retired
baker, was burned probably fatally here
yesterday before her attacker was
frightened away.
Louis Glover, 81, the alleged assail-
ant, was arrested an hour and a half
later and spirited out of town by Of
fcers to forestall possible mob action.
Mrs Jacobs was severely burned
about the head and shoulders and near
" sufTocated, but was able to make a
statement before she collapsed. Little
hope was held tonight for her recovery.
She told officers that Glover, who had
been employed as a handy man about
the house, attacked her. dragged her
down the cellar steps. and forced her
head and shoulders through the fur
mace door.
The negro was frightened by the
ringing of the doorbell when the wom-
ans husband returned home and fled.
Jacobs found his wife with her cloth
ing ablaze.
Glover was wllisked out Of town so
rapidly that few persons knew of the
alleged attack until late yesterday
There was some scattered talk of vio-
lence, but no demonstrations developed.
Police said the prisoner at one time
was an inmate Of local insane asylum.

NASAL catarrh spells trouble, the
~ source OF which should be To-
Gated at once. Yet few persons
realize the danger and neglect
catarrh because they believe it to
be the inevitable result of the eli
mate in which they live. Some
kinds of oatarrh are affected by
climate, others are not But the
point to remember is that catarrh
is not disease. 1t is symptom
of disease which is often durable
when properly treated.
Chronic catarrh Of the nose is
almost always traceable to sinus
infection, and in such cases is to
be considered only as one of the
symptoms of Sinus Trouble (Sinus-
itis). 1t is the result of continued
colds, which develop an acute or
chronic congestion of the mucous
membrane and maintain state OF
inflammation.

Harold Lloyd's newest comedy,
SPEEDY" released by Paramount,
and which shows at the Texas thea
ter today, will bring TO the screen
the horse drawn street car, which
was a familiar figure on the streets
OF any city. a few decades ago. As
far as is known, this marks the
first time that any film company has
used the now out-of-date vehicle in
a picture, which only serves TO stamp
Harold Lloyd as one Of the most
original producers in motion pictures
today.
II was during the filming Of "The
Kid Brother" that the idea of incor-
porating the street car Of the type
that was drawn by horse occurred to
the comedian. When that now fam
Gus picture was completed, a search
was made in quest of one OF these
cars. but to nc avail. Lloyd then dis
patched a location man to New York
City, where after delving around for
a time, he was finally successful in
discovering one which had escaped
the bonfire.
Joy knew no bounds. when Lloy1
was appraised of this. and he i'm
mediately began assembling his cast
for the new picture. A duplicate
set Of the Sheridan Square district
Of New York was built, but to gain
authentic atmosphere, Lloyd trans
ported his entire company east and
was busily engaged for six weeks In
getting scenes that serves TO make
the production stand out. Meanwhile
the car was freighted across the
continent. and used on the set which
built expressly for il.

in Wall street are that X. r. Kings
bury, president of the Standard Oil
company OF California, is being con-
sidered by the Rockefeller faction as
a possible successor to Colonel Rob-

Standard Oil company of Indiana.
The Rockefeller interests, says the
paper, own a large amount of stock
in the Standard If California. some
estimates placing these holdings az
90 per cent.
The Times says that while il is
understood in oil circles that Mr..
Kingsbury probably would prefer 70
remain with the California company
he might be induced by the Rookie
fellers to assume the chairmanship
Of the Indiana company.
Mr.. Kingsbury's name also was
