THE NORTON CONTEST
A Conflict of 0piniOns i'm the
Matter.
No One Is Willing to Admit Contem-
plating a Contest.

The talk of contest Of the will OF
the late Captain W. +. Norton, once of
Paducah, but later of Louisville, has
been revived. Captain Norton died in
California and Among his heirs were
several Paducahans, some Of whom
we're left nothing. There are about
sixteen heirs in all, and the bulk Of
the estate valued at nearly . million
dollars, was left ths Bsptists' Orphans
home at Louisville.
1t is announced in part Of the Louis
willie papers that there Will probably
be ne contest and others that there
probably will The talk of & contest
originated from newspaper smoke
ups" several months ago, and no one
of the heirs is willing TO admit that a
contest is thought of, and If one is
contemplated, the person or persons
to bring IL cannot be found. The ex-
ecutors were naturally annoyed by the
reports, and have attempted to prepare
for one in case one is Drought A con-
ference was held in Louisville Satur-
day.
II one were made il would be on
the grounds of unsoundness CT mind.
One reason the question ia desired set.
tied is because some claim IL one were
attempted it would interfere with the
big Coliseum project at Louisville,
which depends almost entirely on Cap
tain Norton's contributions for sue
cess.

ENFORCE RIGID RULE
Caleb Powers Not Even Allowed
to Talk to Lawyers.
Watched Continuously But He Keeps
Up His Good
Spirits.
SUICIDE THEORY Is ALLEGED.

Georgetown, KY, Sept. 7-Oalet
Powers, who WAS recently condemned
to death upon the charge Of having
conspired to bring about the death of
william Goebel, is guarded with the
greatest vigilance at the Scott county
Jail to prevent his receiving any com
munication except through the jailer
or in his presence.
Under rules prepared by County
Judge Yates, Powers is not allowed
to talk even to his attorneys except in
the presence of his jailer, and all of
his mail is opened and read by the Jail
er before he sees it.
The rule, if enforced, as directed
by Judge Yates. will compel the con-
demned man to receive his aged moth
er in the presence Of the iailer If she
comes from her home in Knox county
to see him.
On account of the rigidit- Of the
rules the attorneys of the condemned
man cannot advise with him about his
case except under circumstances which
would do away with the privacy of
the conversation
Powers retains his accustomed buoy
ancy of spirits, Notwithstanding the
mental strain under which he Is neo-
essarily laboring, and his visitors are
always received with a smile of well
come and warm grasp Of the hand
that is extended between the barred
window of the steel cage. .s
Apparently the condemned man is
quite hopeful of obtaining a reversal
in the court Of appeals, and is prepar-
ing TO fight his case in the circuit
court with his accustomed vigor if il
comes to trial again.
Persons who know Powers believe
that the precautions to prevent the pos
sibility of his coming into possession
of any means to take his own life are
unnecessary, as he is determined to
fight his case to the last ditch, and il
hanged will die protesting his inno-
oence.

an ORPHAN GIRL MISSING
a Train Rocked and a Passenger Struck IN the
Face.

Salisbury, n. c., June 10.-An orphan
girl, fourteen years of age, Matte Ben
field by name, has been missing since last
Friday. She left this city for Norfolk, go
ing over the Southern Railway, but tall-
ure to arrive there aroused suspicion that
she had been lost and Investigation has
proven futile so far. Her friends are
making diligent research hoping to find
her.
The passenger train on the A. t. & Q.
road between StatcsVillc and Charlotte was
rocked Sunday morning near Mt. Mourne
by some unknown parties. Again as the
same train was returning from Charlotte
and near the same place a number of
rocks were thrown through the windows.
One of the rocks took effect III the face
of a gentleman who was seated near the
window. An effort is being made to catch
the guilty persons.
A prominent Southern Railway official
who was in Salisbury yesterday made the
statement that the shops at Spencer will
certainly be doubled. An enormous
amount Of money is to be spent in the en-
]argement of the shops at this place and
it is expected that most of the new build
ings will be completed before the end OF
the present year.
