Miss Emily McConnell, a public school

tragedy occurred in the school In

Spooner shot twice and killed Miss
McConnell in the corridor of the Irv

called her into the corridor and fired
without a word.
He had known her for four years
as a friend of his wife, formerly Miss
Elizabeth Preston of Chicago, daugh

became infatuated with her, and when
she realized that his attentions were
serious she refused to see him. Threats
on his part worried her, and for the
past two months her mother had
called daily at the school for her.

POLLOCK
WAS S
TALKED TO BOYS AT "Y", FOL
LOWING INFORMAL SUPPER IN
THE READING ROOM—DISCUSS­
ED THE GROWTH OF THE PRO
HIBITION MOVEMENT.
Mrs. R. M, Pollock spoke to the boya
at the "Y" last evening, following an
informal supper held In the reading
room. She talked on the spread of
the prohibition movement.
She told of the early efforts of the
few who saw in the liquor evil tno
nation's greatest curse, and of how
they strove, through the medium of
the pledge, to starve the saloon. This
was beginning at the wrong end, said
Mrs. Pollock. The pledge did not
strike at the roots of the evil, as pres
ent day methods are doing.
She spoke of the early days in Da
kota territory, when there was a sa
loon on every corner, and then of the
triumph of local option, and its try
out for two years. The liquor in
terests, she said, are now using un
derhanded methods to belittle the ef
fectiveness of prohibition, and those
who are desirous of seeing the saloon
win out are endeavoring to make peo
ple believe that there is more liquor
sold in the state under .prohibition
than when the saloons were here.
But there is no stopping the move
ment. Such examples as that of Gov
ernor Patterson of Tennessee will go
a long way to win the light. Many
states are now prohibition, and many
more have local option. The public is
beginning to see that, leaving aside
the questeion of abstract morality com
mon sense dictates that the saloon
muts go. The railroads and the oth
er great businesses of the country, of
every country, are refusing to have in
their employ a man who uses liquor.
Many now living, said Mrs. Pollock,
will see the day when there will not
b© a saloon in all the ler-gth and
breadth of the land, when the traflic
will be killed at its roots by stopping
the manufacture of intoxicating li
quors, and the nation will be freed
from its greatest curse.
Colds to be Taken Seriously.
Intelligent people realize that com?.'
mon colds should be treated prompt
ly. If there is sneezing and chilliness
with hoarseness, tickling throat and
coughing, begin promptly the use of
Foley's Honey and Tar Compound.
It is effective, pleasant to take, checks
a cold, and stops the cough which
causes loss of sleep and lowers the
vital resistance. Add Druggists.
