WITNESS IS DEAD; ARREST SUSPECTS i Peculiar Climax of a Knox County, Ohio, Bootlegging Case Dramatic. Mt. Vernon. O., March 31. Because of the sudden U-a t h of Charles Mettulf, the principal witness for the state 1a an alleged bootlegging case, Michael IfO and Alfred Wolf are held as witnesses to the grand Jury of Knox county under $.4,000 bonds, which they failed to give. The events Ihnt led up lo their incarceration of themselves make a dramatic, story. On the night of his death Metcalf, in company with David Mackcy, Wt this place for Homer, Ight miles distant. Six hours later tils body was found under the. upset carriage by tho aide of the road three miles out. Mackey was arrested after a t'oroner'8 inquest. An lnvestination was Instituted by Prosecuting Attorney Tate Cromley and Sheriff .1. A. Walker. Studiously ignoring the local police. Harry I. Ilradhury, head of a Cleveland detective bureau, wuh engaged. The contents of Motcalf's stomach were removed and sent lo Dr. C. C. Howard, of Columbus, together with a warn pin of the whiskey .found in the overturned vehicle. The "result of the analysis has not been made public. The origin of the suspected crime Is found In a 'bootlegging" raid made three weeka ago by Hheriff Walker, In which a dozen illicit dealers were hauled before the grand Jury. Among them Ixe and Metcalf. Metca'.f turned state's evidence. Shortly afterward l,ee was Indicted and his hearing act for March ,21. On the night of the 20th Metcalf 'took his fatal rbfe. Here the Btory goes back ten years, when Ice was a mechanic of high grade, a member of tthe Hoard of Elections and of the County 'executive committee of his party. He gave up employment in the Cooper Knglneer5ns works and opened a saloon, which two years ago was ousted through "Knox county voting dry. Lee therelifter ostensibly entered the horse business, but officers say he conductm! an illicit business in whiskey. In the crowd about the l.ee barn

were Metcalf. who worked there; Mackey. an Itinerant day laborer; Al Wolf, who had no regular employment, and Dick Fowler, who was a hostler. Today lcc. Wolf, Fowler and Mackey were before Coroner J. A. Iteed, the first named being examined for over two hours. When he was served with the notice requiring him to give the heavy bond lie hroko Into perspiration, and calling his father, John Lee, a grocer, asked him to become his surety. His father, a respected eltlacn, refused, and so did his mother, with whom he pleaded that It was only a formality. Still she refused, and. weeping, he was led to Jail with Wolf. Prosecuting Attorney Cromle is a young lawyer, and only two years ago won his first case. The dead man. Metcalf. was a hard drinker, but a month ago. when his mother died, he stopped drinking. Wolfs brother refused to sign his bond. "lle Is breaking the law every day, and If he gets Into trouble through It, I hhall not be responsible," he said Home time ago.

Unfortunately they will probably be disappointed if the description, quoted by the Rev. II. D. Itawnsley in "Literary Associations of the Knglish Lakes." of Wordsworth at work Is to be credited. An old retainer of the family furnished this account of Wordsworth walking up and down his terrace composing: "Mr. Wordsworth vent bumming Rnd booing nlmut, and ?he. Miss Dorothy, kept close behind him and picked up bits as he let fall, and she'd take Vm down and put 'em on paper f r hhn. and you may be very well sure as how she didn't understand or make peii out of 'cm. and I doubt that he didn't have much idea aboot em either himself. Ttut. howiver. there's a gey lot of fowk as wad. I dare say. "He wonld start a-bummlog at one end of the walk, and it was 'Bum. bum. bum." till fj 'o;tfxd, and then 'Bum. bum. bum!' t k again. Then he'd set down ar i get a bit of paper o;;t and write a ti": then g'.t up and 'Bum. bum. bum:- and go on a-bum-miug right down the terrace and back a sain. I suppose the bumming helped him out a bit." France Has Run the Gamtit. No other modern nation has undergone changes more frequent, more radical, more sudden, bloody and dramatic.

The new spring lines in fancy boudoir sets, including sofa pillows, scarfs, bags, pincushions and a large number of practical articles, are brought out In particularly attractive materials and with pretty minor variations ia the way cf trimming, which makes them very fascinating to women in general, says the Dry Goods Economist. One of the daintiest of boudoir sets is shown in white cotton voile, with a pick ribbon design running through it and large pink roses placed on the ribbon at intervals in border effect. This design adapts itself admirably to the various methods of trimming. Cut Into strips the material is used as an attractive border all around the square pillow or ia two vertical bor ders across tbe lone pillow. TI.e long pincushion and corset bag have this border running through the center. An effective new trimming that is a revival of an old mode, old enough, however, to be ga:n called new, is the fringe and pas?cienterie border cf macrame cord. By tbe way. wide tands of lace crocheted In fine maorarne cord, copying venise patterns, are being used as high style dress trimmings, and this is probably responsible for the reappearance of this kind of work in the fancy goods department.

HAREM SKIRT GETS

A KNOCKOUT PUNCH New Jersey Legislator Favors a Life Sentence for Wearing One. (American News Servlce Trenton, X. J., March 31. If harem skirts meant woman suffrage, there would be little chance of the slsterhood voting in Jersey, for, lest theboard walks of Asbury Park and Atlantic City be subjected to a danger jous overflow of men this summer, th I en solemnly to make the wearing of

P-tvs 1 the Turkish garment a crime. 17t5V Assemblyman Cole of Warren Coun-P-;1 j ty was the pioneer in this sumptuary legislation. He boldly introduced a 's j resolution today prohibiting the wear-nr"-.ing t,f harem skirts in the State of ; New Jersey henceforth. Cole had

heard a whisper that the skirt had been seen in Asbury Park the other day. Not to be outdone, Assemblyman Donnelly introduced a' bill making harem skirt wearing a "high misdemeanor," punishable by "imprisonment in solitary confinement for life. "That's the only way to stop 'em wearing Vm!" exclaimed Donnelly enthusiastically. "If nobody can see 'em they won't want to wear Vm. Sec?" There was much discussion of the bill, ending with an order by Speaker Kenny to the Sergeant-at-Arms to arrest any woman who appeared in the Assembly chamber gowned in the bifurcated way. The Sergeant-at-Arms promised earnestly to comply. Several numbers told him to call upon them at once if he needed th slightest assistance in making an arrest. Cole's resolution, after deep deliberation, was referred gravely to the Committee on Revolutionary Claims. Col was told that there must be some kinship between bifurcated skirts and war, because the pantaloons of French zouaves looked much like the new contraotion. Donnellv's hill w-nn at. ( tached to one nrovidinsr for new 1-ton ka rules, by order of the Speaker, but only after an amendment had been offered prov iding a gold medal for every -woman with nerve enough to violate the proposed law.
