WHAT MR.. JOHNSON
DID.--OR D|DN'T---S
Jury and Public We're Kept
Long in Waiting. But
Finally Heard.

a neighborhood quarrel in Scotch
Irish settlement in Virginia culminat-
ed in lawsuit in the justice court.
Mr. Davidson was on the witness
stand The attorney on the side that
introduced him asked:
What did Mr.. Johnson say them"
The opposing counsel objected on
the ground that this was merely hear
say evidence. The squire sustained
the objection, and Davison's side lost
the case. 1t was appealed to the coun
ty court, the same point came up, and
the ruling of the squire was upheld.
Six months had gone Another ap-
peal was taken to the circuit court
A year went by before the final de-
cision was handed down and the
squire's ruling was again sustained.
Another appeal was taken and this
time to the court of appeals.
The docket was crowded and time
dragged on through two long years
before the highest judicial body in
the state delivered the opinion that
the squire was in error and that Mr..
Davidson might be permitted to tell
what Mr.. Johnson said.
The case WIS remanded. Again it
came UP before the squire.
-Four years elapsed, and still Mr..
Davidson carried the secret in his
possession. The whole country was
wild and nearly the whole population
was present at the trial.
The persistent lawyer who had ap-
pealed so many times put Mr. David
son on the stand. He asked him
many questions. Finally, with a fur
tive glance toward the opposing coun-
sci and with CLEAN of triumph in
his eye, he said:
Now, Mr.. Davidson, tell the jury
what Mr.. Johnson said"
All eyes were turned on Mr.. David
son, all ears were pricked up. Mr..
Davidson shifted his legs, stroked his
beard and spat painstakingly and de-
liberately at the ash box. Then he
looked at the jury and said:
'He didn't say darned thing"

AGAINST THE TICKET
AS a Whole and Refuses
To Support 1t.
A REPUBLICAN PAPERS STAHD
The Tail of the Ticket, II
Says. Does Not Deserve
Any Recognition.

Already dissatisfaction is springinl
up among the Republican hosts ovei
the nomination of certain men fol
State office, and over the "straddle'
of the party leaders on the one live
question with the voters of Kentucky
that of temperance and Sabbath obser
vance by the rum sellers in the cities
and towns of the State. The first
Republican newspaper to openly de-
clare that it could not support the
ticket of that party as a whole, and
which refuses to place the entire
ticket at the head of its editorial
columns. is the Somerset Republi-
can publisher in the Republican
stronghold of Kentucky. In it's issue
of June % last, this newspaper repro
duces the ticket nominated in the
Louisville convention with the ex-
ception of the name of the nominee
for Clerk of the Court of Appeals,
who, by the way, is an Eastern Ken
tuckian. Explaining it's action in the
matter it says: I'VE give our hearty
and earnest support to each and every
one of the nominees of the Republi-
can State ticket as printed at the mast
head of this paper. having exercised
the right to refuse the publication of
the name of the tail of the ticket, for
the reason that we believe he has for
feited all claims for recognition of
more TIM two thousand good old
fashioned Republicans of this county"
Speaking Of Napier Adams, the
Republican nominee for Clerk of the
Court of Appeals, this same Republic
can paper says: Three years ago,
the old line Republicans, who are call
ed, "bolters and Democrats" by the
Court of Appeals, organized and did
valiant service for the Roosevelt tick
ct, while this same nominee was doing
nothing. When Mp Belknap was the
Republican nominee for Governor in
1905 no man ever saw or heard of
him or his bosses taking a moment
of time to work to elect him Gov
ernor. In 1903 that same nominee
and his crowd of so-called Repub-
licans. bolted the Republican candi-
date for Congress and sent cards all
over the county asking Republicans
not to vote for DR.. Hunter. That's
the kind of Republican that nominee
is"

cured the sorrel horse of Henry Jupe
Convinced that the animal was suf-
fering from collie, DIR. Hex announced
that he would commence his treat
ment at midnight.
He went to the home of Jupe, and
learning that the animal was still
suffering, the doctor seated himself
on a bushel basket and placed on the
floor in front of him, arranged in the
form of triangle, a bunch of hair,
cut from the tail of horse, a copper
cent and a plug of tobacco. Bend

words.
Then, taking the arm of Jupe, the
two walked backward to the stable.
Here the doctor made a few passes ov-

house, without uttering a word.

VERSE FROM SOLOMON %
TOLD ALL THE STORY
The Sisters Anxiety Was Ap-
peased by a Simple Lit
tie Telegram.

| When she left her home in a
small town to come to New York to
take up special course of study, her
pet sister was fast reaching the cri-
sis of a love affair. The pet sister
was a most winsome young lady, and
had long kept a goodly train of suit
ors assigning. Was this affair to be
the grand affair. The older sister
hoped so, for she liked the young
man cordially-thought he was just
the sort to make a proper brother
in-law.
But the weeks passed and not a bit
of definite news about the progress
of the affair did the older sister re-
ceive in her city boarding house.
She became anxious. Louise, she
thought, must not go on recklessly tri
fling in such an important matter.
Then one night about 10 o'clock,
just as she was going to bed, came a
telegram. The servant brought it
up The older sister was country
girl enough to be thoroughly fright
ened by the pale MANILA, black-ink-
ed enveloped. How ominous is look
ed At length she gathered courage
to open it. This is what she read:
Solomon six three. Louise"
Solomon six three! What in the
world? Oh, why yes, stupid-it
of course meant the Song of Solo
mon, sixth chapter, third verse. But
and her cheeks flushed with shame
she had no Bible.
There was a great scurrying about
the boarding house to find copy of
the sacred book. The girls were
routed out IN vain. On all sides the
cry arose, who's got a Bible?"
Just think of the dear sister try
ing to sleep that night without
knowing what that verse was! 1t
would have been just like a woman
to lie down to pleasant dreams, con-
tent to know that she could satisfy
her curiosity in the mopning-no!
The landlady, good soul, came to
the rescue. She was no heather.
She had a Bible. Up in her room
with it flew the sister, and shut the
door. Such a turning over of pages
by eager, nervous fingers! Solomon

she cried "Hurrah!" and laughed,
foc the verse was:

loved is mine New York Sun.
