At Amite- City, La., as a result of an ambuscade growing out of a ram ilv feud, two women and a man were hilled, one of the alleged assasin is I beinsr held under a heavy guard and the country for miles around is being searched for another man alleged to be implicated in the murders, which oeurred recently. It is alleged that as Benjamin Breland, his wife and Mrs. Joseph Everitt, tho latter carry ing an infant in her arms, were mak ing their way homeward along one of the parish roads, Avery Blount and Garfield Kinchen fired on them from the side of the road with shotguns. Mrs. Averitt fell with her baby into the road, her head blown almost off. Mrs. Breland 's breast was torn off by one of the volleys and Breland himself fell at the first fire. Young people driving home from a party found the baby crawling about among the bodies. Breland was still living ami was nMe to murmur the name of Kinchen before he died. Avery Blunt was captured after an all-night search and "says that Kinchan killed Breland, but will not say who killed the woman. Mrs. Everitt 's husband was killed by Ben Kinchen, a brother of Garfield, several days ago, and the widow and her baby were making their home with the Brelands. Bad feeling has existed among the fami lies for n number of years. A YASN. Chicago News. "Two can live as cheap as one," Yes, they can! "They can, like fun!

This is the Phosphate of potash, of which Grape Nuts food contains a large proportion. In making this food all the food elements in the two cereals, wheat and barley, are retained.

Newport Newsr Va., Special. The -great battleship Deleware was suc cessfully launched from the yards of her builders, the Newport News Shif building and Dry Dock Company Saturday. The laucbing was witness ed by 5,000 people. Compared with the battleships, completed or under construction, of the navy of any foreign country, the Delaware surpasses all. She is one of four sister ships authorized by Congress which will form an indomi table squadron. The other vessels are the North Dekota, being built at Quincy, Mass. ; the Florida, which will be built at the New York navy yard, and the Utah, to Jbe built at Camden.. N." J. The Delaware is to carry as heavy armor and as powerful armament as any known vessel of its class; will have a speed of 21 knots, which is believed to be the highest practicable for a vessel of this type and elass, .and will have the highest practicable radius of -gcthm.-- The rrrangemtn ts of her main battery gnnsi such as to permit a broadside fire 25 ,per cent greater than that of the broadside of anv battleship now built, or, so far as is known, under construction. Her defensive qualities, other than those dependent upon armor protection, are such as to give the maximum degree of protection to all the vital portions by; means of unusually effective eom partmental sub-division, so that in conjunction with ber armor protection the defensive qualities of this vessel are believed to be distinctly superior to those of any battleship hereto de signed. The hull is protected by a water line belt of armor 8 feet in width, whose maximum thickness is 11 inches. This aimor belt gives effec tive protection to the boilers, machin ery and magazine spaces. The side above the main armor belt is protect ed by armor 7 feet 3 inches wide and of a maximnm thickness of 10 inchea. Above the main easement armor amid ships the side is protected by armor of 5 inches thickness, which effords protection to the smoke pipes, the ma jor portion, of the secondary batter ies of of 5-inch guns and the hull structure.

That the reason they are les3 con tented than men is that women mag nify their troubles and men pass ovr the small thin?s they are content to "let the little world pais by." That the-hope of every woman lie in one of two directionsto make or take a name for herself. That her personality, her little airs and graces, her faults and foibles are all Instrumental in shaping the man ners of men. and that she has only herself to blame or praise for their attitude toward her. That it is good for her to cU eyes to all externals at least once every day and soar, quite away Into oblivion then to come back and be happy for the reit of the hours. General Items Condensed.
