near Francisco, Stokes county, was
shot and dangerously wounded last
Friday evening by a party unknown
to her, She was standing in her
house, and the shot, which passed
through her front door, penetrated
her body. Physicians wer called and
the best of attention is being given
the wounded woman, though her con-
aiuon is regarued serious, borne think
the shooting was accidental, while
others believe that the shot was m-
tended for Mr. Van Durant, who was
at home at the time. . .
Forger Flim-FIams Lawyers. '
Durham, Dec. 29 One of the
slickest forgery tricks ever done In ;
this town was worked by Robert C.
Morris, known as "Kid" Morris. ,
Ho secured over $700 in money
and then stole a horse and buggy
from a livery stable and left for parts
unknown. The forgery and robbery
was made known on Saturday, but the
police were loath to give out anything
about the matter. Morris skipped
town on Saturday. Up to this time
the officers have failed to locale him.
The grand climax of the Morris es- i
capade developed on Saturday, and tt
was then shown that the operations
for this trlule steal beean on Novem-
ber 14. On that date he carried a
paper to Lawyer J. E. Pegram and
asked that he loan his sister, Mrs. j
Bessie K. Blackville, $350. The pa-1
pers were served, honored, and the
money loaned.- These . papers are
forgeries. . I
On December 26 Morris attain bd-
plied to Mr. Pegram for a loan, say-'
Ine that the additionnl loan wnnlrl r-'
tire the first . paper. He wanted
884.40 on the mortgage and deed of he salQi but tnought that not more
trust. On the face of the second pa- than twelve companies would particl
per it was stated that the only in- pate in the inauguration. The largest
debtedness on the property was the ' number of these companies ever here
note of $350, The lawyer knew that1 at one time was sixteen, when Presl
Mrs. Blackwell was worth the moneydent Roosevelt spoke at the ; state
and there was no question since tne 1 fair- These twelve companies would
paper was signed by her and was wit
nessed by Justice of the Peace D. C.
hunter. The names of Mrs. Blacx
well and Justice Gunter were forged
on both of the papers presented. The
money was secured from another
lawyer, who advanced the funds.
It Is learned that as a matter of
flndins the facts the oiiestlon has1
been referred to a number of lawyers '
I
nere,, wno win -see who are the re
sponsible parties. This does not ap
ply as to the matter of obligation, bb
it is understood that the two lawyers
are not quibbling about that, but, that
the question Is to place the respon
sibility for being taken In by such a
fellow. . ' --

Some of the bolts of laughter excited
by the big mirth situations of the
musical gaiety, "A Knight for a Day,"
at the Tremont last evening one could
have heard over in tho subway, across
the street. The moonlight elopement
scene of the nervey little waiter and
the "servant lady" of the piece stands
paramount among the laugh' episodes
of musical gaiety offered here in
years. The audience was liberally ap
plausive throughout.
Scene one, commencement day at a
girls school, brings to light the fact
that somebody has left two lockets
and a large fortune for a young couple,
provided they marry. They are disin
clined to comply, having other plans
in view. Scene two is Corsican. The
lockets are given to Tilly, the chore
maid, and Jonathan Joy, ex-waiter,
pseudo-lawyer, ; carpet-bag "Knight
for a Day." '. Do they get the fortune
also? And does Muriel, the adorable,
marry Marco, the regulation Adonis?
Wo hope and suppose so.
The chorus deserves praise for its
excellent dancing and precision In all
maneuvers. It contains a pony ballet.
Two electrical ' features, a game of
see-saw In semldankness and the clos
ing chorus, in which the beat is mark
ed with colored ' lights, are novel and
bcaut'ful. The; best song is one of a
sentimental nature, "Garden of
Dreams," by .Clare Kummer. It will
be heard In the parlor.
The costumes are fresh and attrac
tive and the stage management Is ex
cellent. Boston Evening Record.

AMBASSADOR GR1SC0M
TENDERS RESIGNATION
(By Leased Wire to The Times.)
Washington, D. C, Dec. 28 It is
stated here on undisputed authority
that AmbasHador Lloyd C. Orlscom
has tendered his resignation ,to take
effect March 4, next, and that on the
expiration of the present administra
tion he will retire to private life.
Tim dispatch from the Italian cap
ital states that Mr. Griscom has in
formed King Victor Emmanuel of his
determination to return to this coun
try to engage in politics. . Whether
Mr. Griscom will take to politics on
his return is not known here. It Is
not believed that any cabinet place
awaits him, as Mr. Taft has chosen
the premier of his cabinet from Penn
sylvania, Mr. Griscom's state, and It
is extremely Improbable that that
state would be given two cabinet
places. .
Mrs. McRauey's Experience.
Mrs. M. McRaney, Prentiss, Miss.,
writes: "I was confined to ray bed
for three months with kidney and blad
der trouble, and was treated by two
physicians out failed to get relief. No
human tongue can tell how I suffered,
and I had given up hope of ever get
ting well until I began taking Foley's
Kidney Remedy. After taking two bot
tles I felt like a new person, and
feel It my duty to tell suffering women
what Foley's Kidney Remedy did for
me." Klng-Crowoll Drug Co., Fayette
