FEARSOME "15" TAUNTS PEOPLE FOR COWARDICE

When the young son of Henry Koehring, an employe of the Union National bank, was riding west on Main street about 7:15 o'clock last night, between Twenty-second and Twentythird streets, a man stepped from beneath the shade of a tree and hailed him. Koehring stopped and the man handed the boy a note. "Take that down town and read it." said the mysterious one and withdrew to his secluded place under the tree. As it later developed young Koehring was the only peisoa who saw the captain of the "Fearsome Fifteen," an organization which has sworn to kill "every rich man. woman and child" in the city, according to an anonymous epistle sent to the newspapers Tuesday. Cails for Volunteers. The captain of the Fearsome Fifteen had called for volunteers to assist his carefully selected anarchists in the announced massacre, the rendezvous being the south entrance to Glen Miller park at 7 o'clock last night. Everyone responding to the call was to wear a lilac bloom on his coat lapel. "The smallest crowd that has visited the park any night this spring was out last night," remarked Park Superintendent Ford today, smiling broadly. "There were a few bold spirits gathered at the south entrance, however, one or two wearing lilac blooms. A few automobiles were also assembled near the entrance, with lights out. Probably they harbored some reckless and curious rich people. The captain of the Fifteen was not located, however, even by Chief Goodwin or myself." Captain Sends Note. The note which young Koehring ?-me into possession of read as fol-Io-vb: "Richmoud is full of damned cowardr. Watch for we are coming. "By order of The Fifteen." The boy read this note to a group of young men he met on Twenty-second street. They were enroute to the park at the' time, but after its reading they started off in another direction. The captain of the Fifteen also beat a hasty retreat from his post under the tree. Young Koehring took the note to his father, who turned it over to Supt. Ford. The captain of the Fifteen is described as a man about twenty-five years old and fairly well dressed. A good view of his face was not obtained becam e he had his hat pulled well down.

USE COCOANUT OIL FOR WASHING HAIR

If you want to keep your hair in good condition, the less soap you use the better. Most soaps and prepared champoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Just mulsified cccoanut oil (which is pure and entirely greaseless), is much better than soap or anything else you can use for shampooing, as this can't possibly injure the hair. Simply moisten your hair with wr-.ter and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls will make an abundance, of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily, and removes every particle of duct, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at most, any drug stove. It i3 very cheap, and a few ounces is enough to last every one in the family for months.

WHOOPING COUGH. "When my daughter had whooping cough she coughed so hard at one time that she had hemorrhage of the lungs. I was terribly alarmed about her condition. Seeing Chamberlain's Cough Remedy so highly recommended, I got her a bottle and it relieved the cough at once. Before she had finished two bottles of this remedy she was entirely well," writes Mrs. S. F. Grimes, Crooksville, Ohio. Obtainable everywhere. adv.

Francis Anscombe of the South Eighth Street Friends' church for the European war in an interesting address before the meeting of the Men's Bible Class and Social Union last night. He discussed the influence of the physical geographical situation of several of the countries involved, the industrial revolution, the political situation and the conditions produced through militarism. A committee was appointed to gain the consent of David Starr Jordan, former president of Indiana university, to come to Richmond and deliver an address in about six weeks. Dr. X. S. Cox presided at the meeting in the absence of John H. Thompson. Approximately twenty members of the class were present.
