Last Thursday, it was that Mary Shanks’ ire reached the peak. Urged on by a group of men who told her her husband had been false and was “carrying on” with a new girl in town, she determined on revenge. The hour was set and, with a mcb of fifty men at her k, she at tacked the visitor, Dorothy Grandon, with a big club, beat her down and tore off her clothes to pour a pot of boiling tar over the girl's nude body. Burned and humiliated beyond endurance, Dorothy Grandon crept away from the jeering mob who had watched her suffer, to the home of James Whip, who, with his wife, took care of her until a warrant charging attack and battery could be sworn out next day. When the authorities détermined to arrest the victim as well as her assailant and to hold her as a wit- ness until the September grand fury, jail officials spent hours considering how they could arrange the limited quarters to accommodite in separate cells the two women. Not more than ten minutes had passed after their arrival in their common cell before Mary's head was on Dorothy’s shoulder, while she sobbed: “Tm might And Dorothy, s' “Never mind, y, but we'll we have so sorry!

NEW YORK BUILDER OES U, 9, NATION OF APARTMENT DWELLERS COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., July 30.—(United Press.)—‘Curta: for the workman's humble cottage and the last act is on, Andrew J. Thomas, prominent New York build. er, predicted before the National Association of Building Onwers and Managers association here. In the next act we shall see the modern apartment house—modern to the last detail,—oceupied by the erstwhile cottage group, Thomas said. Great strides in this direction have already been undertaken, and with such success that ‘Thomas visualized a nation of apartments within the next few years, ‘“Manu- facturers and employers having large forces of men under them will furnish the apartments” at near cost," Thomas predicted. “Work- men and their familles will enjoy every convenience available to the millionaire, although perhaps on a miniature scale.” This is the only solution, the builder asserted, in a specially pre- pared letter read to the convention, to the high cost of keeping up a home. The manufacturer may, by providing his own quarters reduce in many cases by half the cost of his employes’ homes, locate them at a convenient distance from their work, and provide them with com- forts hitherto undreamed of ‘below the class of moderately wealthy Americans.
