Sir Thomas Upton is taking a very
active part in the project for a spe-
cial exhibit of Irish industries at the
St. Louis Worlds fair. Deep down in
his heart Sir Tom doubtless hopes
that the Americas cup may be a fea-
ture of this exhibit. Certainly, if it
is to be won by Shamrock III, the
cup will represent very great Irish
industry on the part of it's pluc1y and
indomitable owner.

MISTR|AL At JACKSON, Ky.
One Man, Determined to Acquit,
Hung the Jury, and Rendered
New Trial Necessary.
THE NEXT TRIAL TO Be AT GYNTHIANA.
GOV. BecI&ham May Take a Hand in
the Matter When All the Facts
Are Laid Before Him by state
Inspector Hynes, Who Has Been
studying the Case.


Jackson, Ky, June 2O.-But for one
juror Curtis Jett would have been
convicted here, Friday, of the assas-
sination of Attorney j. B. Marcum,
and majority of the jury favored the
conviction of Thomas White also.
Both are tonight in Jail at Lexing-
ton, and their next trial will be at
Cynthiana, more than one hundred
miles from jackson, away from the
mountains and in the Blue Grass re-
gion, under very different conditions
from those existing in Breathitt coun-
ty.
The interest in the change of venue
was second only to the verdict. When
Judge Redwine refused to hear argu-
ments on the change of the location
it was stated by many in the court
house that the presiding judge had
heard from Gov. Beckham, who is gen
orally believed to have had something
to do with the change of venue to
Harrison county, which is in the
Eighteenth judicial district of Ken
tucky, where j. j. Osbourne is the
circuit judge, z. P. Fryer is the COM
monwealth's attorney and the sheriff
and other court officers are also fa-
vorably known.
With such general confidence in the
surroundings of the next trial, there
is a general belief here that "every-
thing is for the best after ALL" Ii
the verdict had been one of convic-
ton the residents here feel that vio-
lence would have followed, and that
it would have extended to others than
witnesses, jurors and those who had
taken part in the prosecution, 1t is
thought now that after the trials of
Jett and White in Harrison county
the cases of other assasSins who are
known here and who have never been
arrested, will be taken up with some
assurances of justice on a change of
venue. Among the cases cited is that
of the late DIR. Cox, whose friends re-
fused to secure witnesses for any
jury in Breathitt county that was Sc
lected under the present regime.
The next case on the docket here
was that of Curtis Jett, for killing the
town marshal, James Cockrill, but it
will be postponed until after the
trials at Cynthiana.
Col. Williams is at Frankfort con-
ferring with the governor regarding
the withdrawal of the troops. 1t is
understood that he advised the gov
ernor that no number of troops could
stop the lurking fire bugs or the hid
den assassins, but that at least one
company should be retained in Jack
son as long as Provost Marshal Long
mire was kept in charge of the town.
The troops that escorted Jett and
White to Lexington will not return.
There is still much apprehension in
the community for the future and
many here share in the movement i'm
different parts of Kentucky to have
Breathitt parcel1ed out for annexa-
tion to other counties.

PRISONERS TAKEN TO LEXINGTON
Jett Exceedingly UnruIy and Insult

Lexington, KY, June .ao.-When
Jett and White arrived at Lexington,
Friday night, there was fully $40 peo-
pie gathered at the station and along
the route to the Jail. The prisoners
were taken rapidly to the Jail by the
state guards and placed in separate
steel cages on the third floor of the
jail, despite their request to be
placed together. Jett had been ex-
ceedingly unruly and insulting, eYi-
IDENTITY being under the influence Of
liquor.
County Judge James Hargis, Of
Breathitt county came down on tie
train with Jett and White. Later
Hargis visited the prisoners at the

ed the necessity of working for a liv-
ing. They seem prosperous and we'll

as to their marital practices, ii is ad-
1nitted on all hands that they are
kindly and helpful to those in sickness
and distress. They stand in peculiar
ly close relations also to the present
municipal authorities of Jerusalem,
the local minister of public instruction
and the local mayor having built
houses in the immediate ncighbor-
hood Of the American colony so as to
enjoy their society, and the schools
for Moslem girls in Jerusalem hav-
ing been placed under the charge of
members of that community.
Not to mention various wrecks of
other societies which have come from
America at various times to await
the coming of the Lord in Palestine,
always with disastrous results, there
are newcomers, individuals or groups,
constantly appearing. So during my
last stay in the country Elijah came
from America with a little band Of
fellow believers. There are also two
or three fath-healing missions
manned by women in Jerusalem and
elsewhere. One witty American mis-
sionary who had come in contact with
some Of these agencies describes these
women as going about with EPSON
salts and quinine pills as bait to
catch possible converts, it being right
and proper to give such medicines to
the unconverted although after con-
version no medicine is allowed.

gave his name to the system, was II
Catholic priest and was not con-

mean system and was prosecuted for
so teaching by his Protestant brethren
of Tubingcn, but was received with
open arms by the Catholic college Of
Gratz and was offered chair in the
University of Padue by Catholic Ven
ice. the exact question, | say was to
explain how, i'm spite of all this ap-
probation of the hclioccntric system,
still, as defended by GnliIcO, it was
condemned. The only explanation
the different methods of defense. The
scientists, before Calico, defended the
system as a hypothesis, on strictly
scientific principles, and they were
hOnOred; Galilco insisted on dragging
the Bible into the discussion and he
was condemned. The Church did great
good to science by forcing scientists
to find sound scientific reasons for the
system. Every educated man now
admits that Galilco never proved his
thesis; in his case ii was merely n
happy guess. Thus in his time the
movement of the earth around the sun,
as thesis, was false, because not
proved. Even the moral and the civil
law allows a criminal to say, 81 am
not guilty." because he is not yet
proved guilty. So GnliIcO's statement
was scientifically not true, because it
was not then proved true. This looks
like a fair statement without any
"Jesuiticaw appendix.

These hospices are great boon to
the traveller in Palestine, who can
feel sure of entertainment and Of
most interesting and delightful COM
panionship wherever convent or hos
pice exists; and even where there are
no covenants he is sure of hospitable
entertainment if only there be a Latin
priest in the place. In many places
on both sides of the Jordan l was the
guest of native priests Of the Patri-
arch's Mission, trained in the French
schools in Jerusalem. The converts
and hospices are established in those
parts Of the country which are visited
by pilgrims and where there are al
most always also some resident Latin
Christians. The missions are in gen.
era! an attempt to make propa ganda
among the Greek Christians, for it
will be understood that no missions
anywhere touch or attempt to touch
the Moslem population, at least direct
ly. The great bulk Of the Christian
population, as already stated, is Greek
with a certain number of Latin Chris
tians who have been inherited, as it
were, from the Crusading period, or
who have drifted in from various
points. At an earlier period, also, the
Latin Church made great progress
among the native Christians of diff
fcrent communions, obtaining in the
case of the Maronites the adherence
Of a whole population, and almost
every one of the native churches has
a section or division which has recog-
niZed the supremacy Of the Pope.
These are not, however, classed as
Iatins. The Latins are the Roman
Catholics pure and simple; small
groups Of whom are found in almost
every part of the country, but in
comparison with the Greeks their
number is very small.
There are also scattered through the
country smaller groups of Protestants,
the result Of the work of English,
German, and Scotch missionaries.
American missions do not touch
Palestine proper, except in the north
ern part of Galilee, but there are
sporadic American missions and
American schools. So at Ramallah,
Christian village couple of hours
north of Jerusalem, there are board
ing schools for boys and girls sup
ported by New England Quakers, who
send also native teachers to give in
struction in a few neighboring vii
lagos. The tendency on the whole is
to plant too many missions and too
many institutions in Palestine. Chris
tian people are sentimentally attract.
ed by the opportunity to work in the
Holy Land.
Especially is this true of Jerusa
lem. There are in that city, with a
population of perhaps $4,000, some
fifteen hospitals Of different descrip.
tions, and schools and institutions in.

religious cranks Of every sort. In this

Young Man Decides to Locate on North

Informat ton has reached the Review
that another drug store is about to be

man looked the city over with a view
to locating and was so impressed with

in a stock Of goods without delay. III
He has secured quarters on North

that he will open the new emporium
early next week. A full line of drugs,

the fixtures for the store will be Of the
most modern design, it being his in
tention to conduct the business on an
elaborate scale.
New Ulm now has four drug stDres
and would seem to be well supplied in
this respect but we have no doubt but
that a fifth, if we'll conducted, could be
made to yield returns upon an invest
ment. At any rate, the youngman who
is at the head of the new enterprise
