KENTUCKIANS FIND 1T
HARD TO ORGANIZE
Democratic Convention Refuses to
Consider Parker Resolution

LOUISVILLE, KY, June 8. = The
Democratic state convention began to-
day. The entire day and night were
consumed in a contest over organiza-
ton.
The adoption of the report of the
committee on resolutions was followed
by heated wrangle over a resolution
indorsing Judge Alton B. Parker for
president. The convention by vote
of to 1, declined to consider the res
Olution.
Gov. Beckham was finally made tenn
pOrary chairman.
There was spirited debate in the
committee on resolutions over the plat
form, five of the members demanding
the reaffirmatfon of the Kansas City
platform. In order to prevent con-
test on the floor of the convention a
compromise was effected by adopting
the following opening clause:
The Democratic party of Kentucky
affirms its faith in and adherence to
the great and fundamental principles
of Democracy as expounded by Jeffer-
son, exemplified by Jackson and ably
defended by Bryan"
The resolutions call for an unin-
structed delegation to the national
convention, but the delegates are re-
Quired to vote as a unit.

Doctors Tell of Fatal Disease
Caused by Overwork

the human system was discussed to-
day by members of the section of the
practice of medicine at the convention
of the American Medical association.

sis. an incurable disease resulting
principally from overWork. The dis
ease is a stiffening and deterioration

prematurely, and frequently affecting
the heart.
The subject was presented by DR..
James NJ. Anders. of Philadelphia. who
said that many athletes were victims
of the ailment, and that the arteries of
many young men are as decrepit as
those Of a person seventy years old. 1t
is the duty Of the medical profession,
DR.. Anders said, to warn parents and
those in charge Of educational insti-
tutions where athletic sports are per-
mitted of the serious results that
might follow football playing and other
tests of-strength.
DR.. w. S. Thayer, of Baltimore, said
62 per cent of the cases of arterio-
sclerosis that came to his attention
were due to heavy work, while many
cases were caused by the excessive use
Of alcohol.
Dr. w. y. Mayo, OF Rochester, Mimi,
delivered an Grafton on surgery to-
night.

Dahl, of this city, and his daughter,
Aagot, aged eighteen, who left here in

VICTOR Col, June S.-A skirmish
between the military and union miners
at Dunnville, new mining camp. thir-
teen miles out of Victor. this afternoon.
resulted in the killing OF John Carley,
a union miner, and the capture of a
score of other union miners. Several
were later released. The troops re-
turned to Victor tonight with fourteen
captives
1t was reported before the special
train left Victor for DunnviIle bearing
the force under Gen. Bell, that the
miners in the hills about Dunnville
numbered about $50 men and that it
was their intention to march into Vic
tor tonight in a body and to attempt
TO hberate the inmates of the tempo
rary bull pen" in Victor. That the
force consisted of only twenty-one is
the statement of one of the prisoners
taken at DunnYille.
The train proceeded to within a quar-
ter of mile of the Dunnville station.
Then the soldiers saw the camp of the
miners. 1t included one cabin and six
or seven tents.
ADVANCE IN SkiTmlSn OF6Sr
The soldiers left the train at the
command of Gen. Bell and prepared to
advance on the camp of the unionists
in regular skirmish order As they
emerged from the cut in which the
train had stopped they were greeted
with a volley of shots which came from
points of vantage surrounding the hills.
The soldiers returned the fire to the
best advantage possible and promiscu-
Gus shooting lasted ten minutes.
Gen. Bell recognized that the
strength of the miners had been greatly
overestimated and he divided the SOL
diers into seven attachments. These
set out to seour the hills.
Appoints Military Commission
Teller county was declare under
martial law today. Gen. Bell appoint
ed commission to try all prisoners.
The commission is composed of Mayor

More Clashes Feared

DENVER, Col, June s. = Although
the trend of opinion expressed by resi-
dents of the towns surrounding Cripple
Creek Is that order will resume sway
rapidly, there is an evident feeling of
fear that other and more serious
clashes may occur. This is due to the
persistent report which has gained cir
culation, but which is given little cred
ence, that all members of labor unions,
regardless of their occupation, will be
asked to leave the region under pain
of deportation.
No definite clue to the perpetrators
of the dynamite outrage at Independ-
ence has developed yet.

EXHIBIT PRISONERS
AND CHARGE A FEE
Crowds of Twin City People
Flock to Stale Prison to
Gaze at Conxiets

Twin City people are daily crowding
the corridors of the penitentiary at
Saltwater, gazing with ill-concealei
interest on the five orr six hundred Of
the unfortunates who are confined in
side the prison walls. and on Tuesday
Of this week, by actual count, no less
than SOC visitors went through the
penal Institution at Saltwater.
!. A fee of 25 cents is charged for ad-
mission to the prison, and it will re-
quire no great skill aE figures to show
that the state treasury was enriched
to the amount of SIS by the visitors at
the institution on single day.
The number is said not to have been
unusually large, for as high as 800
has been realized in single day by
the sale of admissions to the prison for
visitors. Originally the fee charged
visitors was devoted to purposes Of
maintaining and improving the library
for the inmates, but with the increase
in the number of visitors and the con-
sequent increase In the total receipts
of each day, the total amount received
from admissions in year would more
than maintain library. and the money
is devoted to other purposes.
The people who pay rs cents each
to see the criminals of the state at
their work in the prison are said to
come largely from st. Paul and Minne-
apolis They take trolley cars for the
ride to saltwater and the prison is
then the objective point.
Helps the Street Railway
Mr.. Lowry realizes handsomely from
the morbid desire of people to see their
fellow men in captivity, for the round
trip to Saltwater from st. Paul costs
SO cents, and then there is 20 cents
additional when Minneapolis is the
starting point
1t has been suggested that Lowry be
required to give special tickets to ex-
cursionists to Saltwater, with a coupon
emitting purchasers to an admission
to the prison and opportunity to feast
tEair eyes on the unfortunates in the
midst of their misfortunes.

THE TEACHERS
MET AND ACTED On MATTER OF
REPORTS.

The committee on program Of the
Teachers association held a meeting last
night and partly outlined the work OF
the two days session, following Thanks
giving.
Instead of assigning persons TO parts
on the program, this year the commit
tee is asking them TO take part. This
is a create deal pleasanter to those who
have TO go ON the program as IL gives
them an opportunity to select their
own subject and select something they
would like TO do.
Another matter decided on last night
was the work of the two days. The
work in the forenoon will be general
but in the afternoon what is known as
round table sectional meetings will b.
held. This means that teachers in GER
tain classes and teaching certain depart
ments, all have meetings separately and
discuss their work. This is a departure
from the usual rule and will prove a
success IL is thought, as better results
can be obtained by sectional meetings.

CHASTITY REMAINS
OF AHUMAN BEING
Found on a Locomotive in the
Local Round House.

wearer's neck, from every indication, as
II was wrenched in two in the back.
Mr.. Barnes took the tie and showed
it to fellow workmen and shortly after
this, while Mr.. Dieke was inspecting the
tank, he discovered under the brake
beam a lot Of brains and portions of
scalp.
II was evident that some poor fellow
had met death under the wheels OF the
iron monster, but no reports had been
received showing that anybody had been
found. The two inspectors then report
ca the matter to higher officials who sent
out tracer and shortly afterwards the
body was found.
The investigation made, the result OF
the discovery Of the Paducah inspectors
showed that James Smith, "a fireman, re
siding about one mile from Craneyville

at Wildwood and il is presumed missed
his hold and went under the wheels.

sumed the body was lying in the track
badly mangled and that the passenger
engine took 1t up and ground Il 70
pieces.
When the body was found il was badly
mutilated and hardly recognizable. The
identity Of the man was discovered only
by the suit Of clothes he wore.
The remains were taken TO Crsneyville
for interment. The young man was
known here by members Of the iiremen
