Franchise for Electric Plant and
Water Works.

The City Council at its regular
meeting Wednesday evening, passed
an ordinance providing for sale of
franchise granting right to erect a
power plant and a water works sys-
tenn in Hartford. The original
draft of ordinance was so amended,
at the suggestion, of the City Attor-
ney, thatit is not probable any person
will care TO purchase the franchise.
1t provides that the City Council
may fix rates and compel the owners
of the franchise to place wires under

FIRST POOLING WOUND UP
Checks Going out for Tobacco at
Thomson H0uSe---Gr0werS
Pleased at Result.

The Greensboro Messengs says:
"A few more days and all business
connected with the first pool of to.
bacco made by the A. S. Of E. in
Daviess county will have been finish
ed. Checks are ready for the grow
ers who had tobacco in the Thomson
house and are now being DISTRIBUTE
cd. Work at this house was delayed
for several days beyond that at the
Turpin & Wood house by some slight
hitch in balancing the accounts.
The amount of money distributed
from this house was $2S, 900.
Results to the two houses were
practically the same, and the grow
ers who had tobacco in the Thomson
express themselves as entirely salts
fled with the results. The loss in
weight in redrying was twelve and
six tenths per cent.
Members of the finance committee
which has charge of the sales as well
as of financing the movement are
jubilant over having demonstrated
the possibilities of the pooling plan
while those who pooled are equally
well pleased with the proceeds of
their tobacco.
At all of the Equity warehouses
receipts have been very heavy for
several days past. S. B. Lee, one
of the graders says that the only
danger now is that tobacco in
bulk may be somewhat damaged on
account of the warm weather. He
advises extreme care in bulking to-
tobacco"

OPEN FOR BIDS.
Contractors Will Be Given
Until April %
To Compete for Construction of
Hartford, MadisonviIle and
Eastern Railroad.

1t has been learned definitely that
plans and specifications have been
sent out to various construction
companies, asking for bids to be re-
turned in Hartford, not later than
April %, for building the Madison
vile, Hartford and Eastern railroad.
1t is UNDERSTOOD that the work will
be undertaken by one company,
which in turn will sub-let the con.
tract to individuals or smaller COM
panies, probably in distances as
short as one mile. 1t is I'M
derstood that the CONT act will be
awarded in Hartford on the 2srd of
this month, and that General Head
quarters of the experimenting En-
gineer will be here.
The new road will be about sixty
miles in length and opens up fine
agricultural and mineral territory
which also has some fine lime stone,
suitable for road building. 1t will
intersect the Irvington branch of
the l.. H. & st. L., at Mitchell and
use that road. via Irvington, into
the Tenth street depot at Louisville.
The preliminary work. looking to
the building of the road, began
about ten months ago and the work
of surveying, locating and securing
right of way has been continuous.
About one year will see it in opera
ton.
1t is not believed that the Illinois
Central will be willing to surrender
the business of Hartford, and con-
tiguous territory without strug-
gle. Rumor has it that plans are
already contemplated for q. spur to
this place from some point on its
line. and that it will be in operation
before the other road is completed.

SHORTAGE CHARGED,
Against Cashier of Stanley

Cashier NeeI Accused Of Using

". Neel, until last Monday cashier
of the Stanley Deposit Bank was ar
rested this afternoon by Sheriff
Harl on a warrant sworn out by
Vice President Hill of the Stanley
Bank. He is charged with convert
ing to his own use money belonging
to the bank.
: NeeI was arrested in the lobby of
the Rudd House. He has not given
bond up to a late hour tonight.
His bond was fixed at 5000.
Vice President Hill stated tonight
that Neel promised the officers of
the bank on Saturday that he would

hundred acres of land to cover a
portion of his alleged shortage Of
$4,000. 1t is said that to-day the
officers of the bank learned that

the Fourth Street Bank in Owens

stitution to cover 81. 400 cheek which
he had given on a Morgantown bank
and which had been returned mark

Neel held S., 800 worth of stock in
the Stanley Bank and he is said to
have turned it over to the National
Deposit Bank to cover a 81 400 loan.

investigation is made of the affairs
of the bank that it will show up

The attitude of Neel throughout
the entire affair has been quite a
mystery to those who have watched
his movements. To see him going
about the streets and in the hotel
one would think that he was a candi-

handshaking politician. He greets
one with pleasant smile and says
that he never felt better in his life.

TEN HOURS
Nearer Sunrise Than the Far
Away Philippines Writes For
mer Ohio County Boy.

Capiz, Panay, P. l.. SD. M. Feb.
9, 1906
Dear editor and kind readers:-As
| am now on 1899 E. and you on
so w. you are just ten hours nearer
sunrise than | am, or now being 8
p. M, you are just at 6 "a. m. or
about time to rise and see the sun
rise. But with us moon light is
nicer, as can read an ordinary book
of poems by its beams easily. The
light of the moon is our monthly
holiday. and laughter and pop guns
fill the air.
Now the spring dry season is be-
ginning and streets are nice playing
grounds of evenings. Our provin-
cial election has Just closed and
change in governors has resulted.
This province. Capiz.- is about as
large as four average counties of
Kentucky. 1t is divided into NUM-
cipalities, perhaps twenty. One
municipality, of the first class. has
eighteen councillors; one, of the Sec
ond has fourteen; several, of the
third, have ten; and the remainder.
of the fourth class have eight.
Each has one President and one
Vice President. The Vice President
and Councillors elect the Governor.
They are elected, with the Presi-
dent, by electors or voters, who
have certain qualifications. so as to
exclude the ignorant, the lazy, and
vicious. Each municipality has also
a treasurer, civil service appointee;
a justice of the peace, appointed by
Provincial Board; and a Secretary.
appointed by the President with
concurrence of council. So you may
see our system of government is
somewhat different over here, though
gradually changing from old Spanish
forms to better American ones. We
may hope, through patient lnstruc-
ton, to increase the number and in
telligence of the voters and thus
in time make thorough representa-
tive government. Patience, kind
ness, strength, and intelligence of
the highest types are necessary to
do thorough work.
| wish TO extend my kindest re-
CARDS to friends athome and best
wishes to your paper May the
moonshine of old Kentuck&abe as
bright as here. Yours verttuly

Court House Chat.

Every Sabbath the churches in
this town take up collection for
the heaten of foreign lands. and
the good women of our little city
hold weekly meetings of the church
missionary societies in order to al
leviate the misery of those across
the seas. In attending these meet
ings they pass within less than
100 feet of body of men and some
times of women, who are incarcerat-
ed in the Ohio county Jail. Men who
are confined to dark. dingy and cold
cells. and some of whom have been
so confined for more than a year.
They are without exercise or any
means of exercise; without recrea-
tior or any means of recreation: cut
off from human sympathy. or any
hope of human sympathy. And in
the bright Sabbath sunshine the sleek
well dressed church goer passes by
on the other side" in order to
worship the God who sought out the
sinful and extended His hand to
fallen.
"Oh, it is pitiful
Near the whole city full
Friends they have none!"
We may all hope for charity and
kindness-after we are dead. But
while the brain throbs with power
and yearnings for recognition, make
haste and Cypress it with your con-
demnation or ridicule, while the
ear can gladden. with the word of
kindness, make it carry the cold note
of indifference or the rasping sound
of hate: While the heart beats.
warmly and passionoteIy, bruise it!
After a while it will cease beating.
the brain cease planning and the ear
become indifferent to praise or
blame-and then we will find excuses
and grant forgiveness.

DIES WHILE ABOUT TO
REVEAL LIFE SECRET
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Rochester, Mimi, April 16-The
whereabouts Of the surviving relatives
of Archie La Point of Glendale, N. D.,
who died here Friday with the secret
of his life unrevealed, are being sought
for by the authorities here. Just prior
to his death, La Point appeared to re-
greet the reticence he had maintained
regarding his relatives, and endeavored
to tell something of Importance, but he
spoke English so poorly and was so
weak, that whatever he had to say was
not understood by those at his death
bed,
La Point was born in France but
was naturalized as an American. He is
said to have some property in the vi
entity of Glendale, where he lived for
several years. He was afflicted with
Bright s. disease and came to Rochester
to receive treatment. While here he
said that his parents were dead and
that only brother and sister sur
svived. He refused to reveal their
whereabouts and seemed to worry lest
they should inherit the little hoard he
had accumulated by years Of hard
labor.
He spoke no word Of bitterness
against them, but BY his manner more
than his utterances, revealed the ex-
istence Of wide chasm between him
self and them. His body was turned
over to local undertaken to await in
structions, and in the meantime the
bank at Glendale has been wired to
In the hope that some clue may be OBJ
tanned as to the whereabouts Of the
dead mans kin.
