LIBEL BILL
Passed The Senate Monday
After Hot Fight.

Frankfort, KY, March 6.-Saddl-
ed with amendments, the Libel Code
Bill passed the Senate yesterday,
after being bitterly opposed by Sen
ator Wheeler Campbell, of Paducah.
Although the bill is considerably
changed, Representative Stewart,
who introduced it into the House,
says it affords relief, and altogether
he is pleased with it.
The fight for the Libel Code Bill
came up in the Senate when the
amendment to the code was called
out for passage. The code amend
ment provided that suits for libel
should be brought at the place of
printing or publication. or at the
residence Of the aggrieved person.

Puts All AsyIums Under Con-
troll of One Central
Board.
GOVERNOR NAMES THEM
One Of the Worst Measures
That Has Been En-
acted.

Frankfort. KY, March 7.-Mr.
Redwine, of the Rules Committee,
yesterday called for consideration
the Senate Bill 1852, proposing to
put the charitable institutions of
the State under a Central State
Board of Control, composed Of three
at annual salary Of $500
each.
Mr.. Klair offered an amendment
to reduce the salary from $1,000 to
81, 800.
Mr.. Redwine made a speech for
the bill, claiming that it will save
the State a great deal of money, and
better manage the four State asy-
lums.
Mr.. Southall, of Hopkinsville,
spoke vigorously against the bill,
charging that it will increase ex-
.penses of control, rather than re-
duce them.
Mr.. Young, of Rowan, followed
with a speech for the bill. He said
that the opposition of the Represen-
tatives from Hopkinsville and Lex
ington grows out of the fact that
the local Boards of Commissioners
spend the States money freely in
business houses of those cities. He
charged the present management
with being extravagant.
The bill was passed by a vote of
81 to II, without amendment.

BY NERVE OF A BRAVE WOMAN.
BLACK BRUTE GAINED ADMIT
TANCE TO HOME
4 SUSPECT WAS ARRESTED
But Can't be Identified. Assailant
Came and Escaped in the
Darkness

Mrs. Newton Lindsey had an ex.
citing experience with anegro as
sailant Saturday evening but by
her cool courage escaped injury.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lindsey have
rooms with Mr.. and Mrs. ]. +.
Enterkine, Sixth and Colorado.
Shortly before 9 o'clock Saturday
evening, Mr.. Lindsay went to town
to get an express package, and
Mrs. Enterkine had just left the
house leaving Mrs. Lindsay alone.
The house was dark, and the latter
went to the kitchen to get drink.
Just as she turned on the hydrant,
a black brute stepped from behind
the door and seized her arm, say
ing, Now l guess have. MRS.
Lindsay was terribly shocked but
she didn't lose her self-possession.
She said "No you haven't, I'll
shoot you" and at the same time,
gave the 6end a jab with a long
belt pin which she happened to have
in her hand, the man meanwhile
trying to grasp her other arm.
Whether it was the pain or the
woman's S nerve, suddenly the viii
lain's evil purpose seems to have
left him and he at once ran, max
ing mis- escape in the darkness.
Only Jew struggling glinmers
of light from the window and open
door illu minated the room and it
was impossible for Mrs. Lindsay
to distinguish the features of her
assailant. She says he was above
the average in size, wore Derby
hat pulled down over his eyes, and
light striped shit, with a sleeve
holder on his arm,
Officers ware notified by Mr..
Lindsay who returned home soon
after the affair occurred and an ar
rest was made by Deputy Scoffern.
MIS-. Lindsay saw the man this
morning but did not think he was
the man. Another negro was also
detained but she was positive he
was not her assailant The party
first referred to is still in Jail pend
ing further examination.

VISIT TO VESUVIUS
Gilkey Concludes his Graphic Descrip-
tiOn Of Thrilling Experience

Back to the top of the incline r.
X and out of range of the smoke
we take a path TO the north side of
I the crater some hve hundred ieet
from the edge.
As water finds its way through
loose and porous substances, so the
liquid lava forever boiling in this
great cauldron, has found a way.
or made one, through the side of
the mountain. l have seeu many
I springs o. cold water running from
the side of a mountain, but rever
one like this. Ginning over the
cCngealed surface of what three
weeks ago was molten lava, we
come to a great slit in the hardened
layer of lava on which we walk,
eight feet long and at the widest
place three feet wide. A little bit
OF smoke and much hot air is COM
ing out of this hole. Taking a
position where the heat is for a
moment endurable, and holding
! hands with Others farther away,
that slipping foot or suffocating
breath may not cause us to fall in,
we look down about six feet at a
stream of white hot lava running
down the steep subterranean chan
mel swiftly as water in a stream
about two feet wide, and possibly
six inches deep. 1t looks just like
molten iron running at a foundry.
Steadily this stream runs day after
day and week after week. 1t is the
overflow Of the white hot pot of
mud above, tie safety value of
Vesuvius.
Further down the mountain side
it comes to the surface, runs down
valley until it spreads out, cools
and congeals to become a part of
the mountain. In time of eruption
it runs faster, many times and
other fountains white hot burst
from the hill. That part of the
mountain above the source of these
springs of liquid FIRE is simply the
great cinder heap OF centuries.
Such is Vesuvius, a wonder of the
world for twenty centuries. But
l feel uneasy here. Like an ele-
phant, Vesuivus has her humors.
She was very angry three weeks
ago. She is sputtering and putting
and rumbling with pent up anger
still. Let US hurry down. We know
not the day nor the hour when
she may burst forth in swift and
mountainous ruin.
" LATER
Five lays after we came down
from the crater, Vesuvius did burst
forthin the terror of her might. All
that vast cone up which we toiled
six hundred feet was blown to
smithereens. The crater is now six
hundred feet lower than before.
