front in Helsingfors, were Immediately
ordered out. Two torpedo vessels ly-
ing at anchorage off the city thereupon
opened with their rapid-firing guns
against the barracks, shooting over the
heads of the people gathered upon the
sea front and causing a tremendous
panic. The greatest eXcitment pre-
vailed, but the socialistic workmen
and the Red Guard of Helsingfors
were all highly elated over the out
break. They threatened to take ad-
vantage of the situation and proclaim
a general strike for the purpose of ty-

report the fortress at Sveaborg is

A gigantic military conspiracy aim
ing at the simultaneous capture of
Russia's three great sea fortresses,
Cronstadt, Sebastopol and Sveaborg,
arranged by the Revolutionary Mill
tary league, was prematurely sprung
here Monday night by an attempt to
arrest members of a company of
sappers who had mutinied on account
OF the death of one of their com
rades, alleged to have been due to i'll
treatment.
The entire garrison of the fortress
at Sveaborg famed out instantly in
revolt. All the artillerymen and sap.
pers garrisoning the place were in
volved. Only four companies of in
fantrymen remained loyal. The mu.
tineers seized forty machine guns and
practically all the quick-firers and
light artillery in the fortress, but
even with this aid they were unable
to hold the main fort against the loyal
infantry. The fighting continued all
night. The heaviest firing was heard
from 10 o'clock Monday evening until
one Tuesday morning.
Red Guard on Duty.
''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 of the city
in order to prevent the arrival of the
requirements. A general strike was
declared Tuesday afternoon and was

Horrible scenes occurred during
Tuesday night when the fierce fighting

was used during the conflict between
the mutineers and the government
troops.
An authoritative estimate of the
killed and wounded cannot be OBJ
tanned, but the casualty list on both
sides must be heavy, for the fighting
was waged with desperation.
There are various rumors to be
heard regarding the fate of the officers

there is during the daytime. There il gentle

FARMER KILLED BY TRAIN.

On Sunday morning rs the
10:lS G. IL Q. train was coming in
from Louisville, between Benson
and Hatton Stations. Mr. Bandy
Oman attempted to cross the
track Just ahead OF the tr0in (as
he stated after be was hurt). He
was in buggy and lis horse be-
came frightened at the noise of
the train and refused TO move
W hen in the center of the track.
Mr.. Oman tried to force the ami
NAL off the track, but too late.
Tie train struck the buggy and
smashed it into kindling wood,
the horse was cut in two and Mr..
Oman had both legs crushed.
The train men, as soon as they
saw the buggy, tried to stop, but
not in time. So soon, however,
as the accident happened, they
took Mr. Oman up, put him on a
cot and brought him to this city.
Drs. John G. South, E. E.
Hume and 0. B. Demaree were
summoned, and, after administer
ing chloroform, the legs We're cut
off. Mr.. Oman stood the opera
tion very we'll and hope was ex-
pressed that he might pull
through, but later he collapsed
and passed away (at The Kings
Daughters Hospital where he had
been taken for the operation),
later, at night.
Mr.. OMAN was a widower, 81
years of age, and had three chill
dren, having been twice married.
He lived in the lower edge of the
county near the Henry county
line. His father is still living
and had charge of his children.
The funeral took place from his
fathers residence on Tuesday.
1t was a deplorable, but un-
avoidable, accident.

Az IMPORTANT ELECTION.

On the first Saturdaysof Octo-
her school trustees are TO he
elected in every district in Frank
lin county outside the city of
Frankfort. There is no election
that is of as much real impor-
lance. 1t is more important to
Kentuckv-to all of us--to have
the best men in control of the
schools than TO have an able
Governor or popular Senator.
There is no cleaner election5held
under the laws or Kentucky.
Women participate and money
and whisky don't. There2 is no
election easier TO attend, for it is
within q mile or two of your
home. No other election affects
your home and family so directly;
for school affairs are practically
home affairs, and school interests
are home interests As you value
your rights, as you recognize your
duty to your community and re-
gard your children's welfare, you
are urged to so to this election,
and not to leave these matters to
chance and neglect. The polls
will open at one o'clock, p. m. ,
and close at six. Two officers are
necessary, a judge and a clerk /;
and they are TO be chosen by the
voters at the opening Of the polls.
If two or more assemble, hold the
election and certify it to the
County superintendent. If the
trustees don't come out to bring
the poll-sheet and open the school
house, hold the election anyhow
and it will be legal.

CABBAGE SNAKE.

one until Saturday last, when Mr..

Cedar Run neighborhood, brought
one to this office. 1t was about
the size of No. 4:.spool cotton, and
was II inches long.
Mr.. Shumate says that his wife
was preparing to cook "a cabbage
about ten days ago, when she dis
covered the reptile in the heart of
it, and showed 1t to her husband
and others who came III. 1t was
kept alive for four or five days
and was then put into a bottle of
alcohol. He says he showed it to
a physician, who had q micro
scope, and the head, eyes and
mouth could be very distinctly
seen.
Mr.. Shumate will gladly show
the reptile to any one who would
like to see it. He says AS for
me, l don't eat any more cabbage.
