TWO KILLED IN A FIGHT,
Shocking Tragedy in Town of
FaIIshurg, Ky.

AAe%O
been enacted in the history Of
this section of Eastern Ken
lucky in years took place to-
day in the little town of Falls
burg, located in the hills about
five miles from the Big Sandy
river. Marshall w. r. Mar
cum was shot by George
Cooksey, i lately returned
soldier from the Philippines,
and Cooksey in turn was shot
down by Edward Wolfe, police
judge Of the town, while re-
sisting arrest for the crime.
Early this morning Cook
sey came to Fallsburg more
or less under the influence Of
liquor and became abusive,
boisterous and quarrelsome
. to such degree that Marshal
Marcum decided to place him
under arrest. Cooksey was
known to be a dangerous man
and for years he and Marcum
had a grudge for each other.
Many times today Cooksey
showed his contempt for the
marshal. He was known to
be heavily armed, and had
made remarks that nothing
would please him better than
for the marshal to attempt his
arrest. He had acted in this
manner most OF the forenoon.
A little after I o'clock he
mounted his saddle-horse and
rode about the only business
street OF the little village in a
threatening and menacing
manner, brandishing a large
Al calibre Colt revolver, aud
asking about the. whereabouts
!. Of the marshal.
Marcum, knowing that to
attempt his arrest meant that
one or the other Of them must
be killed, called to assist him
a young man Of supposedly
staying qualities. Marcum
and the young man then Crap
pied with Cooksey and at
tempted to drag him from the
saddle, but before they could
do SO Cooksey VIII pped out
his gun and shot Marcum in
the right temple. He fell
sprawling in the muddy street.
The young man cllled to
assist the marshal took a Sc
we're fit Of "buck ague' and
dropping his pistol, ran into
a storeroom near by.
Presently, the police judge,
Edward U1olfe, appeared on
the scene, and walked up to
Cooksey aud demanded that
he surrender. Cooksey made
answer with a crack Of his pis-
to-, and Wolfe, who was armed
also with atrusty revolver of
IA calibre size, took his gun
in both hands and throwing it
straight upon the beligerent
Philippine soldier with accur-
ate ard deadly i'm, sent a ball
crashing through his brain.
Cooissey fell, his blood and
brains oozing from a gashly
wound about midway from
the lover lobe Of his left ear

where the ball had entered,
and from a larger and more

CHURCHES RAISE MILLIONS
FOR NEW CENTURY JUBILEE

When the Twentieth Century opened
there was a general notion among the vari-
Gus churches of the world that a special
Jubilee fund should be raised to mark the
new era.
This has since crystallized into concerted
action. the results of which are astounding.
The sum agreed upon was fifty millions
of dollars. the time to expire with the year
1902.
The Methodist Episcopal Church. North.
has secured seventeen millions. the Cana
dian Methodists one and one-fourth mil
lions, the English Congregationalists over
three millions.
The several Methodist c~ommunions raised
more thar five and a half millions. and the
English Baptists and Canadian Presbyte-
rians each a million and a quarter.
These great sums have been raised over
and above the usual expenses and incomes
of these churches and will be devoted to ex-
ira fields in the church work.
II the true meaning Of the word jubilee.
''joy," be commensurate with the purchas-
ing power of these great sums. the Jubilee
millions will cause many a Jubiiate TO
thrill up from thousands of sad hearts long
numb to such strains Of g~ladness.

ST. LOUIS STREET CARS
THAT WERE ONCE
IMMACULATE ARE
NOT so CLEAN NOW
Buildinf 0 fWorld's Fair and improvement
of Streets Make Dirty Cars.

| WRITTEN FOR THE SUNDAY
The general complaint OF the public with
in the last six months and at the present
time is that street cars are not as clean as
they should be.
The complaint Is well founded, but the
cause has never been stated.
Every city has what Is called its palace
lin. always the c~leanest. best-kept line in
the service.
Olive street was considered to be the
palace" line of st. Louis.
That was before the building of the
Worlds Fair was begun.
At present this line hauls hundreds Of la
borers. diggers and graders to and from the
Worlds Fair grounds.
Men who work in dirt and yellow clay all
day cannot possibly keep u street car
clean.
At ) o'clock in the evening. when work on
the grounds is suspended. these workmen
are carried downtown on the Olive and
Washington lines.
The cars which bring these men in are
sent out again from their eastern termini,
carrying shoppers, business men and clerks.
The cars cannot be cleaned in transit.
In bad weather conditions are worse.
In the early morning hours the laboring
contingent, which has no time for cleaning
the baked and caked mud off its boots. is
again carried to the Worlds Fair grounds.
When the cars come to town they bring the
clerks, the busines men ana the shoppers.
Cars in transit cannot be taken out of
their schedule time and cleaned until they
turn in.
At the De Ballviere avenue sheds fifteen
men are employed to clean cars all day.
But the cleanest car cannot Withstand the
onslaught of mud from two dozen boots aft
er = rainy day..
This accounts for the changed conditions
in the Olive street line, as well as the Lin
dell system, that touches the Worlds Fair
grounds.
The ~cleartst cars in the entire street-oar
system In st. Louis are found on the Fourth
street line.
This is due to the fact that the cars stay
clean, because almost the entire line runs
over well-made streets. through a section Of
the city where hardly any building Is going
on
This line traverses block after block that
shows neither building nor repairing OF
houses.
On the other hand, where much building
and street improving is done mud and dirt
are carried into the cars by pedestrians.
street laborers, bricklayers and carpenters.
The second cleanest car line in st. LOUIS
is the Compton Heights division. for the
same reasons that hold good on the Fourth
street line.
The streets are at their worst in the
extreme southern and northern sections OF
the city: vet these must be traHerSed by
cars. which are soon in a filthy condition
before they reach the better graded streets
on that division.
Until all the streets have been improved
and put in shipshape. there must of neces-
sity be dirty street cars in certain locali-
ties and over certain lines.
In bad weather these conditions become
almost unbearable to the public.
With good streets will come clean cars,
and with a New ST. Louis will come a new
era in street-car service.

WRITTEN FOR RI SUNDAY REPUBLIC.
The Burton Holiness, lectures had their
beginning in the purchase o. a $40 ANA
teur photographic outfit by a Chicago boy of
Ii in 1888.
An inherited love for travel and a deter
mination 10 satisfy. if possible. the innate
passion for strange scenes, led the boy with
the camera to seek a means by which he
could realize his dream of seeing the whole
world.
The illustrated lecture became the means.
Travel has been the inspiration OF his
efforts.
Mr.. Holiness first lecture was given
before the Chicago Gamers Club in 1890
on his return from a tour of the Conti-
nent.
It was entitled Through Europe with a
Camera"
In 1892. Mr.. Holmes went to Japan.

cital Hall Auditorium. in November. 1898.
a success, due TO the kindness of friends
and acquaintance, counselled a continue
ton of the work.
The young lecturer went at once to North
ern Africa. He entered upon his second
season in 1915. with a course of six lee
lures, including the initial japanese sue
cesses, and four lectures on Morocco and
the Barbary Coast.
Year by year his field widened.
At first. only Chicago and its suburbs
were reached; but by 1896 Holmes was an
established ~favorite in Cincinnati. Mime
apolis, Detroit, Cleveland, Toledo and Ro-
chester.
Then the retirement of o l.. Stoddard
gave him more opportunities.
To-day, Mr.. Holmes is one of the best
known lecturers on travel.
He still claims Chicago as his home, his
residence being on Michigan boulevard.
Here his family has lived since the great
Chicago fire.
Here he bastens each succeeding fall on

When the slides are made he writes the

But the woman he was to marry must
have all the things he lacked. She must MI

things. She appealed to every ambition ana
to every taste he cherished. and yet ne
knew that he had hesitated and mistrusted
her. when he should have declared himself
eagerly and ve~hemently. and forced her TO
listen with all the strength OF his Will. .
Miss Langham dropped among the SOFT
cushions of the launch with a sense OF nav
ing been rescued from herself and OF densnt
in finding refuge again in her own environ
ment. The sight of KIM standing in the
bow beside Hope with his cigarette hanging
frum his lips. and peering with half-cioseo
eyes into the fading light. gave her a sense
of ~restfulness and content She did not
know what she wished from that other
strange young man. He was so bold, so
handsome, and he looked at life and spoke
of it In such a fresh. ~unhackneyed spirit. He
might make himself anything he pleased.
But here was q man who already had every
thing. or who could get it as easily as ne
could increase the speed Of the launch. by
pulling some wire with his finger.
She recalled one day when they were all
on board of this same. launch. and the ma
chinery had broken down. and MacWiliams
had gone forward to look at 1t. He had
called Clay to help him. and she remem-
bercd how they had both gone dow on their
knees and asked the engineer and fireman
TO pass them wrencheS and oil cans. while
King protested mildly. and the rest sat
helplessly in the hot glare of the sea. as the
boat rose and fell on the waves. She re-
scented Clay's interest in the accident. and
his pleasure when he had made the ma
chinery right once more, and his appearance
as he came back to them with ouy hands
and with his face glowing from the heat OF
the furnace. wiping his grimy fingers on a
piece of packing. She had resented the
equality with which he treated the engineer
in asking his advice. and 1t rather surprised
her that the crew saiuted him when he
stepped into the launch again that night as
though he were the owner. she had expected
that they would patronize him. and she
imagined after this lnciuent that she detect
ed q shade OF oiuerence in the mannsr Of
the sailors toward Clay, as though he had
cneapenea himself to them-aS ne had to

At 10 o'clock that same evening Clay be-

Government palace, and MacWillIams, who
was not invited, watched him dress with
critical approval that howed no sign OF
envy.
The better to do homer to the President.
Clay had brought out several foreign or
ders, and MacWIlliams helped him to tie
around his neck the collar Of the Red Eagle
which the German Emperor had given hum.
and to fasten the ribbon and cross Of the
Star of blanche across his breast, and q
Spanish order and the Legion of Honor to
the lapel of his coat. MacWiliams sur
veyed the effect of the tiny enameled
