Helsingrors, Aug. IA gigantic
military conspiracy aiming at stimuli
taneous capture of Russia's three
great sea fortresses, Cronstadt, Sebas,
topol and Sveaborg, arranged by the
revolutionary military league, was
prematurely sprung here Monday
night by an attempt to arrest mem
bers of company of sappers who
had mutinied on account of the death
of one of their comrades, alleged to
have been due to ill treatment.
The entire garrison of the fortress
at Sveaborg famed out instantly in
revolt. All artillerymen and sappers
garrisoning the place became involved
Only four companies of infantrymen
remained loyal. The mutineers
seized 40 machine guns and practic-
ally all the quiCk-frers and light ar
tillery in the fortress, but were unable
to hold the main fort against the loyal
infantry. Fighting continued all
night.
Yesterday morning detachment of
civilian revolutiOnaries seized the ma
rine barracks at Skattudden island,
hOisted the red flag and were joined
by all the marines. Nine cruisers, tor
pedo boats and destroyers in the har-
Dor opened fire on the barracks. This
fire was answered from the barracks
with machine guns and rifles. Tor
pedo boats and destroyers lying close
to shore were subjected to such hot
fire from the barracks that their
crews were driven below decks They
finally steamed out and Joined the
bombardment with the cruisers. The
sea attack was in cooperation with at
lacks by the cossaCks and infantry
from the land side, which began at Q
in the morning and continued through
the day. Finally, towards evening,
firing ceased and the authorities an.
nounCed the barracks captured
At one yesterday afternoon the cos
sacks cleared the square in front Of
the palace facing Sveaborg and drove
the public from the entire water front
for the purpose of preventing the
sending of assistance to Sveaborg
The exact situation at Sveaborg is not
known. It is rumored that the entire
fortress has fallen into the hands or
the insurgents, but these reports lack
| confirmation. It is believed the ces
! sation of fighting is but the prelHlo
to a renewal of the battle betweel
mutineers and the government troops,
An authoritative estimate Of the
killed and wounded cannot be obtained,
but casualties of both sides are heavy,
for the fighting was waged with des.
/ Deration. There are various rumors
| regarding the fate of the officers at
Syeaborg and IN the Skattudden bar
racks. According to one rumor, al.
most all the officers sided with the
mutineers. The marines at Skattud
ren are said to have convened a court
martial which condemned several Of
ficers to instant execution
THE Red Guard" whose leaders
were cognizant Of the plot, dispatched
an expedition by special train as soon
as the revolt broke out, to cut the
railroad track outside the city In or
der to prevent the arrival OF rein
forcements. A general strike was de.
clared yesterday afternoon and was
obeyed by workmen Of all the factor.

Much corn was lost by river farm
ers here in the recent flood in Rough

The pooling house here is boom
ing. Nearly two hundred thousand
pounds of tobacco have been pooled
since the house opened, and had the
weather been seasonable for strip
ping, perhaps double that amount
would have been received. The
management of the house is CIV
ing the farmers better satisfaction
than it had been expected could be
given when dealing with such a large
number of tobacco growers. There
is weather indication now of strip
ping season and a flood of tobacco
is expected to come in within the
next few days, but preparation has
been made to handle it at the ware
house without unreasonable delay.
1t is very gratifying to the managers
of the house to bear many farmers
say that their advance of money on
their tabacco is better than they
had expected, considering the quail
ity of the crop being pooled.

Testing the Mineral.

The Punxsutawney Drilling and
Contracting Company, of Punxsu-
tawney, Pa, began Monday putting
down hole for the Hartford Coal
and Oil Co., for the purpose of test
ing the mineral on their land. The
drill used is what is known as core
drill which cuts out a core 2i inches
in diameter the entire depth of the
hole, and delivers same in sections
about 20 feet long. This core fur
nishes definite information concern
ing the various kinds of mineral or
other substances through which the
drill penetrates. A hole 500 feet
will be bored on the North side of
the creek opposite the ice factory.
Other tests will probably be made at
other points.

The Thanksgiving Day celebration
of November Goth, 1906, at the home
Of Col. Edwin Forbes, near Fords-

part of the State. At an early hour
the guests began to arrive and by
10 o'clock a. m. the expected partici-
pants had all arrived.
AS the history which gave dawn
to the national observation of this
day is so dimly known by so many
this far from the New England
States. Col. Forbes gave his compa-
ny a brief history of its origin. The
Colonel is native of New England

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
Beautiful Young Lady. OfASkinS,
Attempts to Take Her Life by
Drinking Carbolic Acid.

Fordsville, KY. Dec. 8. This city
was shocked Tuesday afternoon by
attempted suicide. by drinking car
bolic acid in Cooper's drug store, of
Miss Lucy Morton, a young lady
about % years of age. Miss Morton
is the daughter of Rev. James Nor
ton, who lives about four miles east
of here. and is a young lady of rare
beauty and intelligence. No motive
for the rash act is known. as her re-
lations with the world are not diff
ferent from the average young lady
and her friends believe her effort to
end her life must have resulted
from temporary alteration of mind.
Miss Morton came into the drug
store and called for five cents worth
of carbolic acid which. when hand
ed her. she deliberately drank down
with the apparent composure of one
drinking the last draught of long
and pleasant banquet. A number
of people witnessed the dreadful
act, and were ready at once with an
tidotes to administer. but the young
lady composedly refused to take the
medicines offered her, but fortu.
nately there was a travelling man
present. who appreciated the neces-
sity for prompt action and he seized
the young lady and forced restora-
tives down her throat. Later a
physician came to the rescue with
trained knowledge of such matters
and her life was saved. Very fortu-
nately the acid Miss Morton drank
was much diluted and the effect was
not so serious as otherwise might
have been. Miss Morton comes of
one of the best families in Ohio
county and her unhappy experience
is universally deploi ed by her friends
and acquaintance.

pilgrims. He gave an account of the
persecution of these pious people
under the blue laws of Great Britain,
and how they were driven out of
England into Holland and to further
exercise their free and religious
belief. they crossed the stormy At
lantic ocean to the PARKWAY wilds
Of America, and on the 22d day of
December, 1920, they landed on the
barren and inhospitable shore at
Plymouth Rock, Of which the poet
says:
The breaking waves dashed high
On stern and rock-bound coast,
And the woods against a stormy sky
Their giant branches tossed;
And the heavy night hung dark,
The hills and waters Ger,
When band Of exiles moored Their
bark
On the wild New England shore
Col. Forbes said that the second
summer after their arrival they
were threatened by severe drouth,
A public fast was appointed and that
evening the clouds collected and
poured down copious showers which
glsddened the face of the earth.
A day of general thanksgiving was
appointed, which is supposed to be
the origin of the New England
Thanksgiving Day.
The convention was interrupted
by a summons to the table where an
ample board was spread, where all
partook of the Thanksgiving repast.
The evening was spent in social en-
joyment, during which Col. Forbes
exhibited some early settlers relics
and instructed some of the young
people in the art of water color
painting.
On leaving for their homes all ex-
pressed themselves satisfied with
the days entertainment and said
that they had learned much of their
national festival day that they never
knew before. -

EQUITY COLLEGE
To be Built at 0wensbOrO

The Chautauqua Company
Other Half of Capital.

At a meeting Monday between
]. A. Eyeritt, President of the
American Society of Equity, and
the officials of Seven Hills Chautau
qua, an agreement was entered into
for the establishment of an Equity
college in connection with the Chau'
tauqua, says the Owensboro Mes
senger. A college to cost about
$50, 600 will be erected at some suit.
able place in the Chautauqua park
and will be used for the accommoda-
tion OF the school, which will be In
operation during the usual school
months.
OF the $50, 200 which is to be imme-
diately put into the institution, one
half is to be furnished by the A. s.
of L. and the remaining one-half is
to be furnished by the Chautauque
company. Mr.. Everitt will at
once begin the work of raising his
portion of the fund. The Chautau-
qua people will also go to work at
once. The school will be immedi-
ately capitalized at $4,000 with the
intention of later doubling the cap
ital stock.
The plan of the college will be
unique in many respects. In pros
pectus, which Mr.. Everitt prepared
after he began his correspondence
with the Chautauqua people, an out.
line is given of what the school is
expected to accomplish. I'm the
Equity college," says the prospec-
tus, the work will be organized in
accordance with the most thorough
ly approved educational methods
But our chief claim to school that
is certain to produce exceptionally
good results, lies in certain features
entirely new and distinctive, which
mark an epoch in the history of ed
ucation. Education will be natu-
rally and intelligently directed along
lines of the greatest natural quail
fications, and the parent or guard
an of the pupil will be told what he
or she is best gifted for. In this way
a mistake need not be made in Sc
lecting and preparing for a life vo-
cation. We will strive to give a
useful education rather than a fancy
one."
In a general way, Mr.. Everitt says
of his proposed school, Our aim is
to establish an educational institu-
ton where the principles of equity,
truth and right living and thinking
will be inculcated in the minds of
the youth of the land.
