FRIENDSHIP REPAID.
How Franklin County Turned
Her Back Upon a Friend
in Need.

removal question was before the
late Constitutional Convention
and Frankfort was in danger Of
losing that for which she had
fought for yers to hold, she had no
more staunch friend in that body,
or one who struck more willing
blows in her behalf than the Hon.
w. c. McChord, delegate from
Washington county. Early in the
7o's the same fight was on in the
Legislature and Mr.. D. c. Hardin
was then a clerk in the Auditors
Office, having come here from
Nelson county. He went to work
manfully for Frankfort, though
having no interest in this city
other than temporary sojourner,
and succeeded in getting the
members Of the Legislature from
his part of the State to stand by
US in that fight. thus helping the
city to hold the capital. Since
then Dave Hardin has become
more closely allied to US, having
married a Frankfort girl and is
again among US as resident.
On Monday Hon. c. c. Nc

brother Of Hon. w. c. McChord
and close friend of Mr.. D. c.
Hardin, was a candidate for Rail-
road Commissioner before the
Democratic District Convention at
Louisville. The delegation from
Franklin county knew or should
have known that by standing right
up to Mr.. McChord when he
needed them they could repay in
part the debt Of gratitude they
owed his brother, and that if he
was elected Dave Hardin would
be secure in his position as clerk

was all right as he, too, had been

IVES AFTER WILLARD
He Wants the Northern Pacific Receivers to
Sue for Shortages


MILWAUKEE,, June s.-Brayton Ives
will shortly come into court and ask for
a hearing on a motion to instruct the
receivers of the Northern Pacific road to
sue Henry Willard for shortages alleged
to have been discovered in the Northern
Pacific and Manitoba transactions both
by Master Carey and by the comptroller
of the company.
The motion, if granted, will bring up
the former petition of Ives, in which he
asks that the receivers be instructed to
bring suit not only against Willard but
Messrs. Colby and Hoyt for alleged irreg-
ularities and illegal manipulation in tho
transactions of the Cook City and Rocky
Fork and the Northern Paciic and Man
itoba branches and the Chicago terrni-
nails.
The petition. though filed last October.
has never been passed upon by the court.
1t is the intention. 1t is stated, to secure
an investigation somewhat similar to
that of Receiver Oakes and Willard will
be given an opportunity to defend him
esf. This it is understood, would be
favorable to the petitioners. This inves-
tigation is desired by the company as it
is liable TO lead 10 disclosures of things
not how understood by others than Mr.
Willard.
Failing in the attempt to secure an
Investigation Ives will urge that the re-
cevers oring SUIT against Willard at once.
If the suit is brought there is proba-
counts with which Master Carey charges
Willard IN his report. The petitions are
now under consideration by Colonel SiIas
Petit Ives attorney, who will present
the argument to the courts and appear
for the company in subsequent processes.

WAS HE SHOT BY SENTRIES? ?
A Story Regarding the Disappearance of
Bicyclist Lenz
A Wheel Is Evidently q Dangerous Thing to
Ride in Tufkey-.The Story Of
Soldier

WASHINGTON, June s.-A strange
story that may explain the fate of F. j..
Lenz the bicyclist who started on tour
OF the world on bicycle, and who disap-
peared in April last year, when he left
Tabriz, in Persia. to so to Erzeroum, IN
Asiatic Turkey, comes by way of Con-
stantinople and was related by Turkish
sentry. While he was in his sentry box
one day little English boy came riding
through the street on his bicycle. This
machine was a source of wonder to the
Turk, who halled the lad and made a
thorough examination of the big wheel.
While thus engaged he said it was the
second time he had seen such thing,
his first experience having occurred when
he was a guard on the frontier between
Persia and Turkey. While attending to
duty with a conrade there came tearing
down the road on big Wheels som ething
that appeared to the astonisned Turks
like the very old Nick nismelf. At any
rate both soldiers concluded it was satan
what he would do. This idea was
promptly carried into effect.
The soldiers fired at the approaching
object simultaneously. To their amaze
ment their shots took effect and the rider
of the wheels tumbled off and made no
effort to rise again.
An Investigation of this story resulted
in ascertaining that the route which Lenz
intended to trevel over would carry him
in northwesterly direction from Tabriz
to Erzeroum and in go doing ne would
have to cross the frontier about the To-
cality described by the Turkish soldier.
