SENATOR GORIN
Gets His Leg Broken by a Saw Log
Rolling on Him.

Senator S. T. CORN, whose home is
in Green county, met with serious
accident few days ago. He was out
assisting in making slat timber when a
saw log rolled and he was caught un-
der it, his leg being broken below the
knee. Full particulars were not learned,
but we are informed that the frac-
ture is a serious one, especially so when
Senator's age is taken into considera-
tisn -Larue County Herald.
Senator CORN represents the district
composed CT Larue, Hart and Green
counties and is a gentleman of the
truest type, faithful and able repre-
sentative. He has many friends within
the circulation of The News who will
feel much interest in him and whose
hopes are for his speedily recovery.

well up with the emergencies. A good
portion of the land is in grass and much
more will be sown. But the main de-
partment is to come next winter and
spring.
Mr.. Tut has his mind made and will
enter the poultry business with an ex-
perienced man in charge, on one place
using incubators and all the latest de-
vices of producing fowls. On another
place Mr.. Hammonds will join him in
the old fashioned way of production on
a large scale. The most popular breeds
will be purchased and in each instance
will be the leading effort if not the only
one to make profitable business.
This venture will doubtless be watch

Rev. J. C. Cook, paster of the Co
lumbia Baptist Church. returned home
Sunday night from The Southern Bap-
fist Convention at Richmond. He re-
ports an unusually large attendance
and one of the most enthusiastic gath
erings the church has ever had in this
capacity. From Richmond he went to
the Jamestown Exposition spending
some time there viewing that great
exhibition of products, naval and mill
tary displays. From Jamestown he
took boat to Washington, D. c., where
he spent couple of days seeing the
most interesting features of the Capt.
tol city. To sum the entire story, it
was most pleasant outing, one of in
terest in many respects and one worth
many times its cost.

A CITY FARMER BRANCHING OUT.

1t was our pleasure, some weeks ago,
to be shown over MIR. N. M. TUFTS
large boundary of farming land, miles
east of Columbia on Sulphur creek,
and to have the owner point out the
changes to be made within the next
few months, both in Improvements in
the way of fencing, clearing, building
and land Improvements, as well as the
inauguration of new and practicable
methods of making money without kill

acres in the entire boundary varying in
soil from the gravely clay to the rich
soil of Sulphur bottom. On the main
farm Mr.. E. B. Powell is in charge and
is fast demonstrating his skill and
showing the worth of his energies by
the substantial methods of managing

tions had been made for more than five
thousand square feet, and new applica-
tions are now coming at the rate of a
hundred day.
The inventors are not the only ones
who will profit by this display, for the
exhibition cannot fail to be of interest
and material benefit to the public at
large. Never before has such an oppor-
tunity been presented at any exposi-
ton, and now that the first step has
been made in this direction, such exhi-
billions of inventions will no doubt be-
come part of all future expositions.

Some time ago the announcement
was made that the News would be made
a six column paper in the near future,
but owing to the unprecedent advances
in everything that enters into the make
up of a newspaper, we have decided to
hold it at lis present size and will con-
tinue to give more local news, in the
same amount of space, than any other
publication in this section of the state.
There was no demand made by subscrib-
ers for an increase in size and we take
it that they are satisfied with what they
get. Our purpose was to better serve
advertisers.

COLUMBIA AGAINST
CAMPBELLSVILLE.
Eleven to Nine, In Favor Of The
Visiting Team.

The game of base ball between the
Columbia and Campbellsville teams,
last Thursday, on the grounds of The
Lindsay Wilson, was one of the most
interesting that has been played in Go
lumbia this season. 1t was contest
in which both sides seemed confident of
winning, before the game was called,
but like all other events contingent up
on calculations of the future, it had its
surprises. At the close of the third
inning the score stood to 2 in favor of
Columbia, but at that time the unex-
pected began to happen and it kept
happening until the game was won by
the visiting team, the score standing
IL to in favor of Campbellsville.
Some bad and costly errors were
made by some of the Columbia players
which were readily grasped by their
opponents and used to their full worth
in scoring. The game had it's usual
lively features and the conduct toward
all players well in the keeping of cour-
teous treatment. While the Camp
bellsville team won the game and
proved master in this the first contest,
yet this does not foreshadow defeat in
the next meeting.
The Columbia team failed to play up
to it's ability, made some bad errors,
not usually made by any of its players,
got outplayed and lost the victory. Mr..
E. G.. Atkins umpired the game and
while he failed to please the most ex-
acting on both sides, yet he decided, as
we believe, in an honest, fearless man.

on every decision regardless of clamor,
criticism or ridicule. We trust that the
two teams will meet again in the near
future The result as shown by the
score card is given below, IS follows:

The recent election held in Metcalfe

majority came as a surprise to both
