A Serious Accident.

Late yesterday afternoon, as Mr.
Claude Redmon, accompanied by his
sister, Mrs. Florence Green, and his lit
tie six-year-old son, was driving up
Main street, near the opera house, a deg
ran out and bit his horse several
times on the leg, causing the animal
to become manageable and terri
fed by fright. Mr.. Redmon was
thrown out with great force, but held
to the lines until his sister and little
boy got out, being dragged some dis
lance before the horse was free. He
was carried in a stunned condition
into DR.. F. M FAIRIES office, and it
was found that he had received a Sc
we're cut in the back of the head and
had been kicked in several places by
the frightened animal. The little boy
received several bad bruises and
tainted number of times, while Mrs.
Green escaped unhurt. The horse
was gentle one, but to be bitten in
several places by vicious dog was
enough to make him run away. He
ran several squares before being
caught, but not before the buggy was
demolished.
1t is said that it is actually danger
Gus to drive on Main street, between
Tenth and Twelfth streets, for a num-
Der of dogs that run after every horse
that passes, a gentleman saying that
his horse had been bitten twice by
these same dogs. Is there no way to
stop such a nuisance?

Paris to Have Another Traction Line.

There was meeting of representa-
tive business men from Paris, Millers-
burg, Carlisle and Maysville held at
the Central Hotel, in Maysville, Mon
day night, and the first important
steps were taken looking to the con-
structiou of an electric traction line
from Maysville to Paris.
The proposed route will be abont go
miles in length, and most probably
touch the towns of Washington,
Mayslick, Mt. Olivet, Blue Licks,
Carlisle and Millersburg, the exact
course taken depending upon the in
ducements and advantages offered.
The meeting organized by selecting
the following officers and directors:
President - Hon. J. N. Kehoe,
Maysville.
Weep. esident -Henry A. Power,
Paris.
Secretary-John Duley, Maysville.
Treasurer-W. W. Ball, Maysville.
Directors-Hon. J. n. Kehoe, w.
w. Ball, Willard Merz, E. P. Brown
ing of Maysville; &C. Cole and w.
B. Ratcliff of Carlisle, G. w. Howard
of Millersburg and H. A. Power of
Paris.
Much interest was manifested at
this meeting, and by the list of Off
GERS and directors selected it looks
like a go. Such a road would be a
great benefit to the communities
through which it passed, and would
help the business of Paris more than
anything else we know of. 1t is big
undertaking, and the gentlemen hav-
ing the matter in charge are proceed
ing with care, and realize the magni-
tude of the work ahead. 1t is under
stood that they have received assur-
ances from substantial financial men
of the East that the money to build
and equip the road will be forthcom-
ing when the rights of way and all
local grants and franchises have been
obtained.
Let US all help these gentlemen in
every way possible on this end of the
line, for it means a big thing for
Paris.

When Billy Hale climbed from the

ton early Sunday morning ne was
hungry and dirty His one idea was
TO get to Senator Langhorne's as quick
" as possible. In his haste he never
noticed tall. heavily-yeiled woman
who got off the same train. She saw
him, however, and drew back until he
had passed
Installed in q cab with his one bag
Hale always travelled nght-he was
quickly trundled to the Langhorns
home in Dupont circle, The Senator
himself opened the door.
Billy, you young limb, I'm glad to
see you"
Jim, you're getting fat
Billy Hale never called the SENATOR
anything but Jim He hadn't for years.
The two men laughed as they shook
hands. They were as intimate as q
man of fifty-two and another of thirty
can be. 1t was characteristic OF both
men that neither said many words AZ
this meeting after two years Of separ.
alton. When Senator Langhorne had
thrown up the Enthusiastically TO Rus
