q. lads and laSSieS,
So good and true.
We smoke the pipe of peace, today,
To Danish care away,
And to pledge devotion,
Sweet devotion to you.
After the singing of the pine ode
the pipe of peace was smoked, accord
ing to the usual custom. The time
worn college pipe was brought out for
it's annual airing. The pipe was born
large and has grown robust with age
AS it passed through the class it was
easy to pick out the smokers and It
beloved those who had been enjoying
the weed in secret to appear very much
disgusted as the pipe came to them
for fear of the proud parents watch
ing them from the hillside. The ladies
took their whiffs with the men, accord
ing to the Old custom, or at least some
Of them tried to.
The address to undergraduates was
given by Miss Gertrude Mabel Pike and
was full of the wisdom of the dignifed
senior about to leave her alma mater.
The farewell ode was then sung and
WAS as follows:

GEORGETOWN, KY, July 90
| Annie Weist, of Louisville, Auditor of
State Sweeney's stenographer, was the
| first witness called in the trial to-day
of Caleb Powers, charged with COM
plicity in the Goebel shooting. She
| heard only three shots, and the sound
came from the direction of the Office of
the Secretary of State. She contin-
ued:
Immediately after the shooting sew
eral persons came into the Auditors
room, but I did not know any of them.
l never heard anybody ask about who
| was shot and it was about five min
utes before l heard what had occur
red
Witness said Henry Youtsey came
into her Office the day Of the Van
| MeterBerry contest and told her she
would better leave the State house, as
trouble was likely to occur. Youtsey
had rifle in mis- hand at the time.
Shortly after the shooting, Assistant
Secretary of State Matthews stationed
two men with guns at the door of the
building with orders to allow no one
to either enter or leave the building.
Miss snuffer, of Williamsburg,
testified that Powers told her January
14th that before he would be robbed by
the Democrats he would kill the last
one of them, at the same time exhibit
ing a pistol. She also read from
Letter from Powers, saying the noun
taineers produced a good effect
Robert Noaks, a railroad conductor,
was called Noaks told of being asked
by Caleb Powers to get company of
militia composed Of men who would
fight. He also asked Noaks to get
smokeless powder cartridges. He Sc
cured company and it was mustered
in. Then Powers directed him to cap
ture two trains and bring his company
to Frankfort. Charles Finley objected
and warned Noaks not to do that and
proposed to hire the trains.
Noaks' next statement created a SEN
sation. Asked if Powers ever spoke to
him about Goebel, he said: Eyes, Pow
ers." he said, declared the contests
would amount to nothing and that
when Goebel was dead no man in the
State could hold the party together"
Witness had another talk with the
prisoners brother, John Powers, who
said: This is life and death strug-
gle, but we intend to hold our own
even if we have to kill some one"
Witness formed company, and said

message from Caleb Powers, who ask

the men to Frankfort. 1t was intended
to send 1900 in ALL On the nights of
January % and %, Charles Finley
awakened me. Finley was not salts
fed with the arrangements for going
to Frankfort and opposed capturing
trains. He warned me to take no part
in it and said he would go to Barbour
vile and try to get Powers to abandon
such plans.
Witness said Finley went to Louis
vile, saying that rather than capture
trains he would pay for them himself
That day telegram from Louisville
asked if Finleys check was good for
$1,000. Caleb Powers then said: Fin
ley lis getting too shaky."
Did Powers ever say anything to
you about Goebel?"
yes, he was on my train one day
and said The contests won't amount
