C., Shoots and Kills Her Paramour, | Then Attempts Suicide. Washington, N. C., Dec. 20. — Mr. Luther Emerson Stone, aged 32 years, was fatally shot at 12 o'clock last nigbt in the house of Lillian Grey on West Fourth street, the "red light" district, by May Woolard, who then shot her self and may die. Stone, it is said, went to the house last night with the intention of bidding the woman goodbye.: At the door he avowed his inten tion of leaving her and returning to his home. The woman begged him to remain and seized his hat,' thus coaxing him into the room. He was firm in his refusal to con-j tinue the relations existing, and her entreaties being of no avail, she drew a revolver from a con cealment in her clothes and shot I Stone in the right temple. He fell and the woman leaned over him and fired another shot into his left cheek, the ball lodging in the base of the brain. This was the fatal wound, although young Stone did not die until 7 a. m. The Woolard woman shot her self twice in the forehead and temple. A hurry call brought the Washington Hospital ambulauce and both were carried to that in stitution a few blocks away. The You M Need Jt Ask your doctor about the wisdom of your keeping Ayer's Cherry Pectoral in the house, ready for colds, coughs, croup, bronchitis. If he says it's all right, then get a bottle of it at once. Why not show a little foresight in such matters? Early treatment, early cure.

This was May Woolard's fourth and nearest fatal attempt to kill herself. Stone came here several weeks i ago with a first cousin, Chris Hen dricksoti, and was employed in the city as a pianist in the Dixie Theatre. Stone was from Boston and was well connected. He was j a graduate of Holly Cross College, j Worchester. Mass.. class of 1906, I . and was highly accomplished and I educated. Both his parents are j dead, but he has two brothers liv-1 ing—Albert Stone, head dressman i for the John Pierce Company, j New York, and Capt. Edgar Stone, i U. S. A., stationed in Luzon, P. 1.1 The former is on his way here to I take charge of the remains. A coroner's jury with Dr. Josh ua Tayloe, coroner, was empan- j neled at noon and held an inquest j over Stone's body. The verdict was "That the deceased came to his death by a pistol in the hands of May Woolard.'' [The Reporter is informed that May Woolard was formerly a Miss Morgan, who lived near King, Stokes county, several years ago removing to Winston, and later to j 1 Washington.] . John Early, Leper, Refuses Medicine Washington, Dec. 2'J. —John Early, "Washington's leper," who hails from North Carolina, has re fused for the last two months to take the medicine prescribed for j him. Early is chafing under re istraint. Ho claims there is i I j doubt as to the nature of the | disease from which ho suffers, though many experts who in spected the case during the tuber i culosis congress here recently, ( pronounce it undoubtedly one of [ leprosy. The leper's latest proposition is |to have Dr. John Hansen, a cele- I brated Swedish specialist, brought to the United States to pass upon his case. If Dr. Hansen pro nounces his case one of leprosy, Early says he will accept the de cision as final. As the government will contrib j ilte nothing toward Dr. Hansen's ; expenses and Early cannot raise ! the money to pay for a visit him | self, he will probably have to re i main in his present quarters laid under quarantine.

TRY IT, HERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY. ELKI/N BLANKETS AT WHOLESALE PRICES. ' THERE'S A REASON: Manufacturing Blankets is a science.—Every Blanket must be perfect—a tear, a flaw, a rough edge or broken thread; any one of these little imperfections cause the blanket to be laid aside and marked "second" though the blanket is intrinsi cally as good. But this process makes it possible for us to offer ELKIN BLAN KETS AT WHOLESALE PRICES. There are nearly 4000 pair and to sell every pair we are compelled to have such prices competition cannot meet.—But that's even better for you. ELKIN BLANKETS are made right here in our own county, but are Sold the United States over. ELKIN BLANKETS are the best made. Every ELKIN BLANKET is Part or Ail Wool.
