Hival an Annual Affair.


Hival an Annual Affair.
The executive and sub committees Of
the Ellsworth's merchants carnival met
Monday evening to close up accounts
for this years carnival. After all bills are
paid, the report OF the treasurer showed
a deficit OF just II cents. This very satis-
factory showing, in view OF additional ex-
penses OF the carnival not contemp plat t d
in the original plans, was cause for self
congratulation by the committee.
Extended resolutions were adopted,
thanking all organizations and indivd
uals who in any way contributed to the
success of the carnival.
The matter OF making the mere ha nts'
carnival an annual affair in Eiis worm,
and forming permanent organization
with that object in view, was discussed.
The meeting was unanimously in favor Of
such action.
1t was decided to call mass meeting
for next Tuesday evening, probably at the
Office OF L. F. Giles, to take up the mat
ter, and, II deemed advisable, to form a
permanent organization.

tense. Whallen filed Il lengthy affidavit
in which he claims TO have been a victim
of misplaced confidence. He states that
Senator Harrell came to him and said
that he was against Goebel but that he
fUa1-relD had already accepted $500. to

CIV was given Harrell: that Harrell keli,
$500 and put the balance in box $40 of
the safety vault OF the Louisville Trust

false that he had already received 5000
from a representative of Goebel. Whallcn
says that ON his advice a number of his
friends had bet large srmns of money tlat
tsoebel would not be elected Governor of
kentucky and that after the election. by
Whallen's advice his friends had bet large
sums of money that Goebel would not be
seated by the Legislature.
He says the money paid ito Harrell was
his own and paid by him with the de
sire to protect himself and This friends
against the loss of money wagered. and
to restore Harell to such position as
would enable him, without pecuniary loss
to act according to what Harrell repre-
scented to be the true dictates of his con-
science. The warrant was taken to
