WOMAN IN CLUB AND CHARITY

The class work of the Young women's
Christian association has practically closed
for the summer, and before scattering the
members have planned a number of little
informal affairs, picnics and the like to be
given during the coming week. The Sun
day afternoon gospel meetings will also
close for the summer June IA. In spite
of the storm, Grace chapel was filled on
Thursday evening with members OF the
South Branch to witness the exercises that
closed the seasons work there. Miss Helen
Hoagland was the first soloist of the even
ing, graciously responding TO an encore
and later singing 'Oh, That We Two Were
Maying," with Miss Lillian Burgess. Miss
Frances Roeder also sang and Miss Flora
Ticknor contributed two readings of James
Whitcomb Riley's. A dumbbell drill by
Miss Bakers gymnasium class followed.
Much credit is due Miss Nellie Welker, the
extension secretary, for the growth of the
work at the branch since she took charge
of Il, a year ago. The membership is
| three times as large as it was last fall and
the work has been strengthened in pro-
portion. Miss welker will return to her
home in Pennsylvania the early part of
July to spend the summer there, and will
return to resume the branch work in the
| fall. As II was impossible to arrange for a
| tennis court this summer the MEMBERS OF
the gymnasium classes have been enjoying
long tramps this week that are to be con-
tinued during the summer. Miss Ticknor,
physical director, will leave on Tuesday
for her home IN Indiana to spend the sum-
mer there.

Major AIIen,n statement.

Just as the storm broke o. ]. Harper, the
sentry at the south side of the Jail, oh
served q man approaching from the Jack
son Deposit bank. He gave two commands
to halt, which were unheeded, and then
gave warning that he would fire unless the
man halted. His words were answered by
one or two shots. The guards disagree as
to whether the prowler fired once or twice
and whether he fired at the sentry can, Of
course, only be imagined, as he was not hit.
Tho darkness was intense and objects could
only be seen by lightning flashes. Harper
and two other guards returned the fire.
The marks seen today indicate with what
destruction the shots took effect. A minute
later the sentry at the north side of the iail
observed a moving object which he thought
was a man or a horse coming toward him.
He commanded a halt three times before he
fired. The object, a COW, was killed. The
glass front of the bank was penetrated and
an unlighted lamp on the counter was shot
through. 1t is believed that the prowler
was sheltered by the stone fence around the
msincd on duty all night and momentarily
expected to be called on to repel an attack.
Very few of the soldiers slept at all. About
fifty men from the county were in town
yesterday evening. 1t is the popular belief
that the plan was to pick off the gatling
gun squad with the aid of the searchlight
and then rush the guard. The search of
visitors to the courtroom today resulted in
the finding of only one weapon, a large
knife. John O'Neal of Covington, an at
torney, was sworn In at this bar today. He
is trying to have the trial set for Monday
week. Prosecutor Byrd announced his in
tention to ask for a special jury venire
from another county to try the men.

MED that his interview would give that
impression.

ernor's office by Postmaster Sizer and j..
Z. Haye two former oil inspectors, n a
representative OF the Associated Press.
Hayes was shut out Of the interview. The
Associated Press representative acknowl-
edged to Governor Mickey that the dis
patches sent out from here regarding the
bribery charges had greatly misrepresented
the governor and to prevent a repetition he
had discharged his understudy who had
sent them.
During the interview Governor Mickey
took occasion to explain the bribery charges
that haye created so much comment He
said that Fred Beckman, a candidate for
oil inspector, informed him Mickey that
he had been advised to tell the governor
that he would give Ed Church 1900 II
Church would withdraw from the race and
allow the appointment of Beckman. This
the governor refused to accede to and so
informed Mr.. Beckman.
Regarding the Wesleyan university brib-
cry charge, the governor said friends of
DR.. Tucker of Lincoln told the governor
that DR.. Tucker would give 500 or $500 to
the university II the governor would APP
point him physician at the p~enitentiary.
The third charge was that a man offered
70 work three months annually in the
interest OF the governor II the latter would
appoint him labor commissioner.
The fourth offer was made by an old
soldier of Polk county. who wanted to be

JACKSON, Ky. May 2.-The Illustration
Of what the troops believe was a plot to
rescue or kill Curtis Jett and Tom White
last midnight increased the tension in Jack
son today. How many men were involved
beside the one fired on and who returned
the sentry's fire. and what relation the in
cident had to the placing OF a searchlight
on the tail grounds from a nearby mountain
side earlier in the night, are questions in
which great interest is felt.
The illness of Judge Redwine also puts a
new phase on the entire situation. II his
condition grows worse a special judge will
probably be appointed. The attempt today
to remove the special bailiff, B. ]. Little, is
a matter of much interest. The grounds
offered are that his brother married Mar
Gums sister. and this might influence his
actions as a sheriff. Major Allen, who in
the absence of Colonel Williams in Licking

The has relief Of Mrs. Caroline Brown,
founder of the Chicago Woman's club, has
lust been completed by Mrs. Lou Wal
Moore and is soon to be hung in the club
rooms. In the summer OF 1876 Mrs. Brown
invited some OF her friends to meet Mrs.
Julia Ward Howe at a luncheon at her
home. as she said. to tell them something
that was much on her heart. She then
proposed the forming OF a club. such as
the women of New England had, its prime
object being to give women the same OPP
portunity Of meeting together for mutual
benefit as men had. In order to prevent
the clubs being a narrow clique Of her
own friends she invited each woman to
bring a friend, and so the Chicago Woman's
club was organized. At first some degree
OF caution was necessary, for women's or
CARNATIONS were new then, but gradually
the club grew from this circle for mutual
improvement TO the splendid association OF
today. Mrs. Brown is now a resident OF
Charlottesville, Va.
