What is the "Kangaroo' dance?
It is one of the many laugh-com-
polling features of CDR. Bill. -, the

HERMAN MAUZY
Shot to Death by a Negro in

His Father Goes to Scene of
Tregedy, And as Yet
No Details.

Last Monday our fellow townsman
Mr.. w. H. Mauzy, was notified by
telegram from Bulah. Miss, of the
killing of his son, Herman Mauzy at
that place by a negro, and that his
body was so mutilated by the gun
shot wounds that it could not be
shipped home. Mr.. Mauzy left for
the place as soon as he could get d
train and as yet no word has been
received giving any account of the
affair.
Young Mauzy, who was only about
% years of age, had been at work
at a saw mill with Louis Chapman
also an Ohio county boy for several
months, and it had only been short
time since his people had received a
letter, which indicated that he was
doing well.
Mr.. VIM. Mauzy, the boys father

citizens, with host of friends, who
are in deep sympathy with him in
his hour of distress.

ESCAPE FROM PRISON
Attempted by COavictS in Frank
fort. Kentucky. Peni-
Tertiary.

Frankfort, KY, Nov. State
prison officials, this afternoon, I'M
earthed a plot among a half dozen
or more prisoners, through which
one or two escapes have recently
been effected and Others planned.
Will Gill, a Boyd county prisoner,
disappeared to-day at noon from the
dining room of the institution, and
a thorough search failed to reveal
his whereabouts. One of his fellow
workers in the dining-room was
"sweated" and led the officials to
the sand-room of the chair shop,
where Gill was dug out from under
the floor. He had secreted himself
with a view of making his escape
after night. The convict who told
of the plot gave the names of sever
al desperate prisoners as being i'm
plicated. All were put IN irons and
solitary confinement.
The officials consider themselves
lucky in locating the plotters just at
this time. as they might have a
break while new men are serving as
guards, while the regular men are
away at home to vote. as is the GUS
tom at every election.

LANDED In JAIL
Did Sim Helm for Misconduct At
WhiteSvilIe-Br0the Out
On Bond.
tOwensboro Inquirer ]

Sim Helm is in the county Jail as
the result of desperate doings at
Whitesville on last Saturday, and
his brother, Leslie, who was in
trouble with him, is out on bond.
They were arrested and brought to
the city and placed in Jail. Justice
Rodman accepted the bail offered
for Leslie, but would not take the
same which was offered for Sim.
The brothers got drunk and went
about the town attacking and alarm
ing those whom they could en-
counter. They even went to the
home of Miss Katie Neel, who was
i'll of typhoid fever, and frightened
her so badly that she left her bed
and ran to neighbours home.
They first attacked John Howard,
a grave digger, and his wife, but
we're repulsed, after having injured
Mrs. Howard. Howard and his
wife used a spade and a hoe in re-
polling the Helms. Shortly after
the attack on Howard and his wife,
the Helms set upon a boy named
Knight and severely injured him.
