SENTENCE NOT GIVEN.
But Now viii Serve From Ten
Years to Life Imprisonment.


George + Nov, the murderer
of Charles j. Withers, will suffer
a penalty of imprisonment in the
state penitentiary of from ten
years to life Imprisonment as the
judge sees fit,
The jury in the case was secured
Saturday after three full venires
and portion of the fourth had
been exhausted The prosecution
tempted to show that the killing
of Withers was premeditsted and
felonious.
The affair was surrounded by
deepest mystery from the begin
ming to the end, and neither at the
coroner's inquest nor at the pre-
liminary trial was it shown that
any previous trouble had existed
between Withers and Now prior
to the fatal encounter which re-
suited in Withers death. Since
that time no satisfactory theory
had been advanced for the trouble.

NOMINATION CLINCHED.
Action Taken to Prevent Claim
That Primary was Illegal.

After resolving itself into a
mass convention, the Democratic
executive committee of the First
congressional district at Paducah
Thursday elected Ollie M, James
the nominee for congress.
Mr.. James, as is we'll known,
was nominated at the primary
held three weeks ago, but fear was
felt that the legality of his nomi-
nation might be questioned be-
cause of the fact that the election
was not held under the Carroll
law.
To set ali such issues at rest,
the district committee, in pursu-
ance of a call quietly issued by
Chairman Mott Ayers, met here
this afternoon.
As soon as the committee con.
vened il called a mass convention
of voters of the First district to be
held Immediately.
The committee then adjourned
and Immediately formed itself in
to convention and unanimously
declared Mr.. James the duly ac-
and elected candidate for
congressman.
Appropriate resolutions were
adopted,

An immigration official during the
course of lecture at the Rifles
Armory the other evening. says the
Washington Times, was exhibiting
types of arrivals at the Ellis Island
immigration station in New York. He
told Of fellow on a ship, one day.
whose face and makeup were such
that the inspection officers could not
for the life of them determine the par
ticular country whence he came. He
was accosted in turn by linguists in
italian, German, Slavak, Scandinavian,
Greek and Finnish. Not less than
twenty-five different tongues and dia-
lects were tried on the new arrival
who looked as though he might have
hailed from any one of the countries
where those languages are spoken: but
he didn't say word, just stood and
stared at the officers who were inter-
rogating him.
Finally he turned to them and ex-
claimed: "For the love Of heaven, is
there anybody around here who can
speak English?'
We once heard Judge A. M. Kelley
narrate somewhat similar experience
he had while on the bench in the In
ternational Court at Cairo. After a
witness whose nationality was puzzle
had been addressed in French, Spanish,
German, Portuguese, italian and Ara
bic and failed to make any response
except to indicate by shaking his head
that he did not understand, Judge
Kelley turned to a brother judge, and
remarked sotto voce; II wonder what
language the idiot speaks, anyhow"

came from the witness in the broadest
Tpperary brogue.
