INJUNCTION ASKED
Shaft Mine Is Now Being Operat-
ed by Non-Union Miners.
wHEATcRoFT MINES ARE WORKING.

The Wheatcroft mines in
Webster county, after having
been idle for some weeks is again
in operation. Not long since a
number of laborers were brought
from the South but were induced
by union men from Sturgis to
accept an offer of free transpor-
tation to their homes, which was
accepted but not carried out in
good faith. Since then Mr..
Wheatcroft has assembled a
company of non-union miners
from Webster and Hopkins coun-
ty and is now operating the shaft
mine.
The union men who remained
at Wheatcroft are reliably re-
ported to be leaving rapidly for
other points and are selling out
their property at Wheatcroft.
Not long since it was reported
from Sturgis that the union min
ers there threatened trouble if
this mine resumed with non-un-
ion miners, but every thing is
quiet and nothing serious is an
ticipated. The property has a
stockade around it and the oper-
alton is in charge of good men.
A petition for an injunction,
with strong affidavits to support
it, has been filed in the Federal
Court at Louisville. The fight
at Wheatcroft has not been over
wages paid, for Mr.. Wheatcroft
agrees to pay Ii percent in ex-
cess of any union scale that may
be adopted in Western Kentucky
for the next five years.

There viii Be Peaches.

Mr.. d. L. Talbot, of Hardin
county, who is pretty good au-
thority on fruit predictions, says
the Elizabethtown News, reports
that he has made a thorough ex-
animation of the fruit crop and
finds that about one-fourth of the
budded peaches are alive, that
the seeding variety is uninjured
and that pretty fair peach crop
may be expected this season. He
further reports that there will be
about one half a crop of plumbs,
pears and cherries. However, he
predicts more cold weather and
is looking out for blackberry
winter during the present
month, which he thinks may yet
injure the fruit crop

KENTUCKY DAY
Changed to June IS for Benefit
Of the Kentucky Press
Association.
FAIR WILL BE IN BETTER
SHAPE THAN ON ORIGINAL DATE.

Kentucky Day at the Louisi-
ana Exposition is now fixed.
June Is will be it. The time
originally selected was June 2,
Kentucky's natal day. The
change was made largely out of
consideration of the Kentucky
Press Association and is fixed for
the later date because the Exec
utive Committee of the Associa-
ton decided it was better for the
Kentucky Press to 60 on later
date. This was decided at the
meeting of the Committee held
at the Gait House, Louisville,
last Saturday. Mr.. A. Y. Ford,
President of the Kentucky Ex-
hibit Commission was at the
meeting and co-operated with
the Committee. He was in tele-
graphic communication with the
Worlds Fair officials to arrange
for an open date. A letter from
Mr.. Ford yesterday announces
that June 10 is offered and this
date is selected.

Judgement of the Ohio Circuit
Court In the case of A. B.
Schlitzbaum against the Com
monwealth, in which the appel
ant was convicted of embezzle-
ment and sentenced to confine-
ment for one year in the State

Court of Appeals at today ses-
sion. The opinion of the court
was delivered by Judge Num-,
the whole court concurring. The

charge being preferred by that
company. he was also agent for
the American Express Company,
and his name figured in connect
ion with the alleged robbery of
$28, 900 contained in a package

THE BARNETTs
viii Meet in 81. Louis Sept. TO- Nearly
Two Thousand OF Them.

@. M. Barnett, of Hartford,
Surveyor of the Port of Louis
vile, has received a notification
that a reunion of the Barnett
family will be held in st. Louis
September 10, which he and his
family are invited to attend. He
will defer his contemplated Wis
it to the Worlds Fair until that
time.
The Barnett family is a very
large one and has connection in
all parts of the United States.
Great interest in the reunion has
been caused among its members
and it is probable that the event
will be attended by 1,500 to 1000
people.
The Barnetts are numerous in
England and the first to come to
this country were two brothers,
John and Joseph, to whom were
granted by the King of England
tract of land, upon which they
settled and became wealthy
planters. This was perhaps
twenty-five years before the
Revolution and the American
branch of the Barnett family
multiplied rapidly.
In 1880 three of them left Vir-
ginia and came to Kentucky.
One, Alexander, the great-grand-
father of the present generation
of Barnetts settled at Hartford,
which town was named for him,
being called Barnett's station in
the early years of its existence.
The other two settled at the
headwaters of Green river, and
on Silver creek in Madison coun-
ty. In this State the family has
about five hundred members. In
Louisville an entire page Of the
city directory is given to them.

Good Advice.

The farm is a good place on
which to be born, on which to
live through ones prime work,
on which to die. Some times it
happens that one who has spent
his boyhood days on a farm may,
when he comes to struggle for
himself, stray away to town and
engage in one of the numerous
vacations which men there pur-
sue for a livelihood. However
successful he may prove in busl-
ness in town, there comes a time
as old age approaches when his
earlier life in the country, its
independence, its calm, health
full enjoyments and scenes and
products of nature and he feels a
strong, overmastering desire to
spend his later years and die in
country on the bosom of the
great mother of us all-generous,
teeming earth.

Better Stay at Home.

Young men are flocking to ST..
Louis from all parts of the coun
try seeking employment, labor
ing under the sad impression
that positions are seeking them
instead of them seeking the po-
sitions, says the Jessamine
Journal. One employment bu-
reau in st. Louis has on its list
the names of $50 young men
looking for employment at an
''easy" job. In the dawn of the
twentieth century, there was
never such a demand for moral
young men, as there is today,
but they must be well equipped
for what they undertake. The
trades people of st. Louis and
other large cities are command
ing wages of $3.50 to SO per day,
but the average young man de-
sires to be in the professional
world, which is so overdone that
a large proportion of them are
barely eking out a living.
Young man, if you desire place
in this busy world, equip your
self with thorough business ideas.

Ann Arbor, Mich, Oct. S-Coach Yost will
send his team in the game against Kalamazoo
college today expecting to pile up score Of
from IS to 100 to 0. Kalamazoo is not ex-
pected to be strong as either Case or the
Ohio Northern team, and the coach wants them
to take this opportunity Of acquiring the fast
scoring habit. Matters in the Columbia game
proposition will be settled shortly to GER
tainty.
Manager Baird has written the Columbia man
agement demanding q definite decision within
one week as to whether not Columbia will
play the game. Michigan football men say
that the reason Columbia has been delaying is
so that the eastern school can determine whether
Michigan will have strong team or not The
feeling here is that Columbia would have been
willing to play the game had the eastern team
thought that Michigan would have been easy.
