INJUNCTION ASKED
Against Union Mine Workers
in Whitley County.

Covington, KY, May Sin an effort
to secure the eviction of miners from
homes which they now occupy, attor-
neys representing the operating of
oalpines at Stearns, Whitley county,
made an application today in federal
court for an injunction against 100
union miners. who are on a strike.
According to the petition, the miners
do not object to the wages paid, or
the number of hours which they are
compelled to work, but are opposed
to the mines being operated on the
open shop policy, and demand a rec
ognition of the union.
The charge is made that the union
miners are preventing nOn-uniOn
miners, who would take their places,
from living at the mines and greatly
interfering with the operation of the
mines.

Four Hundred Hogsheads Dis
posed Of BY Salesman
Jarrett This Week.
PRICES RANGE UP TO $12.
Increase of 5000 in Member
ship Since Last Year.
Rosy Outlook.

Four hundred hogsheads of tobacco
have been sold in this city this week
by. Salesman G. F. Jarrett, of the
Planters Association, all of which
brought good prices, some of the
weed going as high as $12. There is
an active demand for all grades and
there is no trouble in selling tobacco
in good order. All buyers are taking
sample lots.
Although the quality of tobacco
raised in Christian county last year is
not as good as that of theyear before,
the association is getting more money
for it and a lively, good demand for
all grades from now on is expected.
The associations growth and ex-
tended influence is shown by the fact
that the membership, which was
1000 last year, is now more than
$4,000. Outside of GAINESVILLE, the
affairs of the association are being
tremendously conducted everywhere
and many new members are being
enrolled every month. The receipts
here of association tobacco are now
more than 1000 hogsheads.

sioner of agriculture, organized a
Farmers institute in Henderson
county Monday, with a large mem

SPRINKLED
WITH SHOT.
Mr.. Morris Stops a Charge
Fired By a Careless
Hunter.
WAS HIT IN THE HEAD.
Distance All That Saved
Him From Perhaps
Serious Injury.

Mr.. R. A. Morris, who resides on
the Canton pike, just outside the
city limits, was shot Monday by
some one hunting near his house.
One shot struck his forehead and a
number of them hit his clothing,
but, as he was fully seventy-five
yards from the hunters, none of them
took effect in his body. The shot
that hit his head, however, caused a
large knot to form, from which he
suffered considerably for several
hours. Mr.. Morris says that shoot
ing near his residence by boys is of
such frequent occurrence Of late that
it has become a source of great an
noyance to him. He says that there
were five or six boys in the party
Monday, three of whom had guns,
and came out from the city. After
being struck, Mr.. Morris started in
the direction of the boys, but they
took to their heels and were soou
out of sight. The practice of hunt
ing and shooting near residences is a
very dangerous one, often resulting
in injury to the occupants, or stock
near by, and sportsmen should use
great care when out with their guns.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.

The thing that makes a pretty hat
| is the face under it.
People may love their children for
their faults, but mighty few others.
Singing in a choir is the very best
way not to make friends Of the rest
of it.
Hardly anybody would like to get
the cussing a millionaire has without
his money.
There is hardly anything that makes
a woman madden than to have her
photograph look like her.
The meanest man is the one who
won't kiss doll for child when she
thinks it has been hurt.
When you see man looking pretty
cheerful in town it's a sign his fam
lily is away for the summer.
A very useful thing about an anna
teur garden is it's such nice place
for the dog to bury his bones.
Girls don't get much fun out of go
ing in swimming unless there is some
man around to show them how.
Even If baby understands the Ian
guage the women talk to it he'd be
ashamed to admit it by answering.
A man can make a good deal of
money in stocks by being careful not
to have anything to do with them.
When a man lets a collar button
fall and brags that it didn't roll I'M
der the bureau it's sign he is per-
jurer.
One ~ tba r,,aopect things man
can do when his wife has point in

ALL TRUE.

Too many bills are apt to make a
yuan feel bilious.
The fools are not all dead. In fact,
lot of them haven't been born.
Joy cometh in the morning-unless
you've been making night of it
It's mistake to marry too young,
but it's mistake that isn't repeated.
A woman is never quite happy with
a man who refuses to argue with her
Many an unsuccessful man would
rather preserve his dignity than
hustle.
1t is better to have too little con-
ddence in yourself than too much in
others.
We are told that love levels all
things, but often it seems like an up
hill fight.
To indulge in the things we can't
afford is the average mans idea OF
pleasure.
Life is like game Of cards, in
which good deal depends upon
good deal.
The fellow who Is always under a
cloud reminds me of nothing so much
as borrowed umbrella.

retary of commerce and labor Mr.. Meyer
is now ambassador to Russia. The selec-
ton of Straus for a cabinet portfolio was
a general surprise. He is rated as a
Roosevelt Democrat He is a member of
Tammany hall, but has not been in close
touch with the leaders. He is the first
Hebrew ever called to a cabinet position.
Straus is a free trader. He is a man of
wealth and education, a lawyer by pro-
fession who turned his attention to a
large mercantile business. and he has
won a reputation as a diplomat, author
and philanthropist. He was minister TO

bill introduced into the legislature
by Senator Johnson OF Orange county pro
vides that morphine, laudanum, choral and
cocaine. or compounds OF these drugs
when they are purchased for narcotic ef-
fects can be furnished only by a regularly
qualified physician and that pharmacists
and drug clerks cannot sell them without
a physicians prescription. The penalty
for so doing is a fine Of not less than S25
nor more than 800. This is a sweeping
measure How the test would be applied
TO determine whether drugs were TO be
used for narcotic effects is something Of
a question. II the bill became a law the
man with Jumping" tooth couldn't buy
an ounce of laudanum to allay the pain un-
til he had the physicians prescription
and If baby was writhing with ''tummy
ache the druggist wouldn't have the
right to furnish the helpful paregoric
The provision embracing compounds of
the drugs in question would also bar
many standard and proprietary medicines
which have been sold without restriction

On the ground of the public good alone
the legislature cannot afford to withhold
the $1,000 which is asked to support the
work Of the state board of pharmacy The
sum would be a very small item in the
aggregate of state expenses, there would
be no opportunity for graft in handling II,
and the money is absolutely essential to
the maintenance and extension OF a very
important work which Vermont needs II
it is 10 keep its place in the ranks Of pro-
gressive commonwealths. The skilled
pharmacist is the physicians trusted lieu
tenant, upon whom he must depend in
the carrying out of his orders and upon
whose judgment he often relies. No one
would question the importance OF a strict
censorship in giving physicians the right
to practice, and the need Is almost equally
urgent in licensing the men who are to
compound remedies. Since the state
board of pharmacy was established in
1894 1t has managed to keep self-sustain-
ing through the examination fees and the
biennial fees for the renewal of licenses.
but the income from these sources is linn
ited and the demands Of the work are
constantly increasing. The standard of
pharmaceutical registration in Vermont
today is high, and there 1t should be main
tained. so that people may go to men thor
oughly qualified TO prepare the medicines
which TO a greater or less extent must be

1t is time to license the fool killer when
such senseless measure is introduced into
the Legislature as one to bar automobiles
from the highways from Friday noon to
Monday morning or for any other speci-
fled time. The automobile may be made
a nuisance by careless or reckless handl-
ing, and the drivers of the cars must be
held accountable to restrictions which will
keep them from 'jeopardizing on the high
ways the rights of the man who has to
drive a horse or go afoot. But the auto
mobile is product of and a factor in
modern life and its use and usefulness
will be greatly extended in the near fu-
ture. Horses will get accustomed to au-
tomobiles so that they won't notice them
so much as flies. the mania for speeding
the cars will largely pass away, and
eventually the automobile will fill place
as a utility in transportation. The auto
mobile problem will work out its own
salvation. but freak legislative measures
win retard and not forward the solution.
There is opportunity for some safe and
sane automobile legislation, with the
rights of all considered.

c. P. Hogan of ST. Adams is receiving
a good deal Of newspaper booming as sue
cessor to ]. z. Cushman Of Burlington in
the office OF state tax commissioner. 1t
Is conceded everywhere that Mr..
Cushman has been a palnstaking and ef-
hcient official, and the only argument
against him is that he has held the Of
fice six years, which is as long as 1t was
filled by any of his predecessors. The
Office is not political plum, like a Gus
toms collectorship 1t isn't a job where
the holder can draw the salary and leave
the work to subordinate. In fact. the
compensation, $11OO a year is very small
considering the responsibility of collect

dreds OF thousands of dollars. There isn't
a word to be said against Mr. Hogan so
far as we know. but the argument for
him in this case is simply this. He wants
the job and Cushman has held II six years.
