DEATH OFF c. ADAIR.
One of the Best Known Citizens
of Ohio County Passes
Away.

Mr.. |. c. Adair, who for years was
cashier of the Fordsville Banking
Company,'s Bank at Fordsville, this
county, died at his home there. last
Monday of pneumonia. Mr.. Adair's
health has not been good for sever
al months, but his death was rather
sudden. He was man of high So
cial standing. having descended
from one of the oldest and best
known families in Hancock county.
About fifteen years ago he came to
Fordsville and established the Fords-
vile Bank, and became its cashier,
which position he held until a short
time ago, when he resigned and was
arranging to go South for his health.
Mr.. Adair was a man of splendid
business capacity and was interested
in a large number of banks and other
business enterprises at various
points in the state. He was stock
holder in the Hartford Pu blishing
Company and has always manifested
great interest in the success of
this paper. In politics he was a
strong Republican, and always took
keen interest in all matters con-
nected with party affairs. He never
aspired to office. though the Repub-
lican legislative caucus at Frankfort,
last winter, nominated him for State
Prison Commissioner, and he receiv-
ed the vote of the Republican MEM
bers in the joint session for that
position.
The death of Mr.. Adair will be
keenly felt by Fordsville and COM
munity in both business and social
relations. He leaves wife and one
child-a daughter. His remains
were taken to Hawesville, where the
interment took place in the pres
ence of a large number OF his rela-
tives and old friends.
We extend coincidence to the be-
reaved family.

High Noon Wedding.

Miss Mona Doyle, of Leitchfield,
KY, and DR., w. S. Sandbach, of
Friedaland, were married in Cane
Run church Sunday, November Is.
in the presence of a large congrega-
ton of friends. Their attendants
were, Misses Lula Hoover and Lula
Sandbach. of Friedaland. and Prof.
Warren Peyton, or Leitchfield, and
DIR. Isaac Hoover. of Rosine.
Miss Hoover and Prof. Peyton en-
tered the church door on the right,
stepping gently with the wedding
march, which was being played by
Mrs. White, of Horse Branch. They
approached the altar and marched
slightly to the left. Miss Sandbach
and DR.. Hoover were next to enter,
and approached the altar and step
ped to the right. The bride and
groom then entered together and
took their stand between the pre-
ceding couples, forming an arc
around the altar, when the words
were solemnly spoken which made
them one, which was followed by a
short prayer. The last couple that
entered was the first to retire,
then the bride and groom, followed
by the couple which entered first.
The happy couple has many
friends in Grayson and Ohio coun-

The architecture, especially of the
residences, is superb every house
different from its neighbor. All have
little flower courts in front. and al
most every house has more or less of
roses grown on a nigh stalk about
four feet high. The bloom is very

that they commence to flower in
June, and now at the first of No

be of considerable interest all over
the country. Clifford Pinchot, the
Chief Forester. has presided and it
is understood that one of the results
of the meeting will be an application
to Congress for an appropriation of
100000, to find a substitute for
hickory in wagon building. The
supply Of hickory has made Ameri-
can wagons and buggies famous the
world over. 1t was enormously be-
lieved to be inexhaustible until a
few years ags, when the supply in
the central Atlantic and middle
western states was suddenly discov-
cred to have been used up. The
question now arises whether by
chemical or other treatment a sub
stitute for hickory can be secured,
and it is largely with this view that
the convention wants to establish a
Forest laboratory in Washington.
In view of his undoubted success
at Utica, the President has selected
Secretary Root as his spokesman for
an address before the Trans Missis-
sippi Exposition, soon to be held at
st. Louis. The interest in what the
Secretary may have to say lies large
ly in the fact that it is understood
that he will make a statement en-
bodying the views Of the President
on the Monroe doctrine. This will
be an offset to the somewhat indis-
Greet remarks of Prof. Burgess be-
fore the University Of Berlin fort
night ago. The subject of South
American trade will be discussed at
the meeting and efforts are being
made to secure the attendance of
several of the South American Dip
tomato representatives. Whatever
Secretary Root says on the subject
Of the Monroe doctrine will, of
course, be directed to attentive
ears and will find its way directly
into South America as an official ut
terance from the Department of
State. or as he would be called in
Europe, the premier or Minister of
Foreign Affairs.

HIGH WATERS,
More Than Sixty Hours Con.
tinuOuS Rain Fall.
Causes Great FloOd in Green and
Rough River VaIleys---Much
Damage Done to Corn.

For almost four days, beginning
one week ago, an almost continuous
rain visited this section, with the
result that every stream is swollen,
as never before. All the tributaries
to Rough river have poured con-
slant, ever increasing flood into it.,
until at this time it seems sure to
make new record. Much damage
has resulted to bridges and other
property. At Dundee the business
houses of Renfrow and Wedding,
and Acton are Inundated. The
towns of Philpot and Olaton, on the
Owensbore branch of the |. C. lail-
road have been flooded, and for sew
eral days train service had to be sus-
pended between Greensboro and
Horse Branch. A wash-out near
Caneyville on the main line of the
|. c., caused considerable delay in
the train service Monday and Tues
day, and Hartford received no mail
from Louisville on those days. The
pike between Hartford and Beaver
Dam. at Muddy Creek bottoms,
which was supposed to be above
reach of high water, was covered in
some places, to depth of two feet,
or more.
Thousands of bushels of corn are
under water in the Green river and
Rough river valleys, and the loss to
farmers will be enormous. Owing
to the wet season, it has only been a
short time that corn in the low land
was considered dry enough to har-
vest, hence very little had been saw.
ed. 1t is estimated that at least To-.
600 bushels of corn is under water
on Rough river below Hartford.
If reports are reasonably correct,
Green river has surpassed all for
mer records for fast rising, having
risen ten feet in twenty-four hours
1t is very high and is still rising and
a great deal of damage has been
done along its entire course.
Hartford is shut off from the out
side world, except in the direction
of Beaver Dam. East, West and or
the road leading North toward Ow.
ensboro, the water is so deep that
the only passage is by boat. The
Ohio Circuit Court is greatly hinder,
ed IN the transaction of business, by
the high water. as litigants, witness.
es and jurymen cannot reach town
The court may be compelled to ad.
journ very much inside the term
limit.
1t has been almost impossible fol-
people living in the low lands to get
out to places of safety, and save
their stock. The gasoline boat:

instances.

DR.. J. H. WHITE KILLED.
Former Resident of Hartford
Loses Life in Missouri While
On Hunting Trip.

received by Capt. S. X. Cox from
his daughter, at Charleston, Mo-,
stating that her husband, DR..
j. H. White was dead, as result of
an accident, and requesting him to
come at once.
DR.. White was born and raised at
Cloverport. About twenty years
ago he came to Hartford and opened
dental office. For a long time he
practiced his profession here with
success, and by his genial disposition
made friends of all. Eleven years
ago he married Miss Mary Cox,
daughter of Capt. and Mrs. S. X.
Cox. A year afterward, they moy-
ed to Charleston, Mo-, where they
have since resided.
The only particulars which have
been received of DR.. Whites death
are contained in the following dis
patch in Wednesdays Courier-Jour-
nal:
Charleston, Mo-, Nov. 2O.-Dr.
j. H. White, leading dentist, and
James Handy Moore, one of the
wealthiest landowners in Southeast
Missouri, were found dead to-day
near East Prairie. The men, accom-
panied by Moore's son, Ben Moore,
started yesterday for the swamps
on hunting trip. Nothing more
was heard of them until this morn
ing. when Ben Moore made his way
through the driving rain to farm
house and broke the news of the
tragedy.
1T is understood that the team
became unmanageable, ran away and
threw the occupants of the carriage
to the ground. DR.. White leaves
wife and young son and many rela-
tives in Kentucky. where he former
resided"
Capt, and Mrs. Cox left Tuesday
evening for Charleston, but nothing
has been heard from them, and it is
feared that, owing to the high water,
they have been delayed on the road.
1t is presumed that DR.. Whites re-
mains will be brought back to Ken
lucky for burial.
He has many friends in Hartford,
who deeply sympathize with the
family.
In letter to members of the
family, received late yesterday,
Capt. Cox gives the following addi-
tional facts concerning the sad ac-
cident:
Handy Moore and DR.. White
started out to camp to spend a
week hunting, behind a spirited
team. and when five or six miles.
out, Moore fell out first and about
one hundred and fifty yards further,
DR.. White fell and became entangled
in the running gear of the surrey.
Neither man was able to extricate
himself, and Mr.. Moore's little boy,
about twelve years old, being with
them, did all he could to revive them,
but tono purpose. Mr.. Moore died
first, and DR.. White, after lying in
the mud and rain all night, died
next morning just as the little boy
had succeeded in alarming the neigh
bors. The boy spent an awful
night, going from one to the other
in the rain aud darkness, and now
the little fellow is in a deploraole
condition. caused by the excitement
and exposure. r.

BECKHAM HESITATES
To Make Good Campaign Promise
10 Pass Lid Law Because
Politicians Oppose it.

Ii is known that Gov. Beckham is
fearful that the people will believe
him in sincere if he does not call an
extra session yet he hesltates to do
something in opposition to the wish
of his colleagues on the Democratic
ticket.
If an extra session is called, Gov.
Beckham will override his political
friends. They believe that if he be-
gins tinkering with the lid" and the
temperance question he will find
himself in n middle from which il
will not be easy to eXtricate himself.
They also believe that an extra session
will be the means of defeating the
Democratic ticket in the election
next November.
Thus Gov. Beckhan finds himself
between the proverbial devil and
deep sea. He believes that the peo-
pie who gave him the Democratic
nomination for United States Sena-
tor want an extra session. He is
convinced that he owes his election
to the temperance element, and is
anxious to do something to show
that he was sincere when he made
temperance the issue.
A great many believe that the
Governor would convene the General
Assembly in extraordinary session
Immediately but he fears that he
will be making a bad party move.
If the Democratic ticket is defeated
in the election next year the chances
are that the Republicans will elect a
majority of the members of the
House of Representatives. Then
with small gain in the Senate the
Republicans wonld be in the major
ity in joint assembly.
The Governor is frightened, and
knows not which way to turn. With
the party leaders opposing the calling
of an extra session insisting that the
interests of the party are at stake,
the governor is up in the air.
If the pressure is not too strong
the Governor will say to the people
that an extra session is too expen-
sive and the matters will be passed
up that way.
