One of the narrowest escapes by
any of the passengers was that of
Mrs. Charles PARISH, wife OF a whole
sale fruit dealer of this city. A large
rock smashed the window at which
Mrs. Parissi and her niece were sit
ting, and fragments of glass were
scattered all over them. The women
attributed their escape from injury
to the fact that their faces were Gov
Tered with wells.

1t is further recommended to the
Court that it make the following prop
osition to the citizens in any part of
the county: That upon any of the coun-
ty roads in Adair County where gravel
is accessible, that IN the year 1907, if
the citizens along any road will organ
ize and file their petition with the
County Judge and bind themselves to
put gravel on the county road 8 feet
wide and 7 inches deep, the county un-
der the supervision of the Supervisor
will grade and prepare said road for
the gravel and will pay to said petit
TONERS the sum of 500 per mile for
crawling same provided same is
graveled according to the specifications
above named and approved, after in
spection, by the County Judge and Su-
pervisor, and that said money be paid
out of the levy of 1907; and provided
too that no less than one mile be so
graveled, though not necessarily a
continuous mile. And provided that no
voting precinct be awarded more than
two miles each year.
And further that the Court may
withdraw any or all of the propositions
concerning road building heretofore set
out, provided it does so before the cit
liens have accepted same, and COM
piled with the terms and conditions i'm
posed upon them thereby.
And it is further recommended that
the present system of working dirt
roads by warning in hands be con-
tinued. And the rate of taxation for
road and bridge purposes for the year
1907 be fixed according at 25c on the
500 worth of taxable PROPERTY.

The Following is a Biography Of
"0ur Fallen Hero

Born forty-eight years ago in the lit
tie county of Magoffin, at the foot
hills of the Cumberland mountains,
Judge S. w. H ager grew to
young manhood in the mountain ham,
let of Salyersville, its county seat and
the home of the leading people of that
section of Kentucky. His father was
William ]. Hager, successful mer-
chant and one of the best known men
of that, section of the State. His
mother, Phoebe Ann Hager, was a
native of Gallia comfy, Ohio, and of
Kentucky adoption. Like so many
Kentuckians who have achieved dis
tinction, Judge 'Hager obtained his
first scholastic training in the humble
schools of the county of his birth. He,
later, attended the State A & M Col
lege, at Lexington. Going back
home, after his college career, young
Hager went into the schools at Salyers-
vile as teacher. There he spent two
years. Twenty-one years ago he
changed his place of residence to Ash
land, Boyd county, the gateway to the
richest section of eastern Kentucky.
There he engaged in business, later be-
coming President of, the Merchants
National Bank. That position he held
until he became an official of the State
of Kentucky, eight years ago.
Judge Hager first entered public life
in 1897, when, over his protest, the
Democracy of Boyd County placed him
a the head of their county ticket as the
nominee for Comfy Judge. Notwith
standing that Boyd county had, in
1896, given William Mckinley MAORI
ty of about eight hundred votes, Judge
Hager carried it by more than three
hundred majority over his opponent.
His standing was such that scores of
leading Republicans Of the county sup
ported him openly. Having this first
taste of politics, Judge Hager enjoyed
the game, and soon became the most
prominent man ins his Congressional
District. This brought him to the at
tention of the leaders in State politics;
and, when the convention of 1899 met
at, Louisville, he was easily the choice
of the Demacrates of the State for
Treasurer of Kentucky. In thai con-
,vention he was an ally of the late Will
liam Goebel, who was chosen to head
i, the HsEek as the Gubernatofial candi-
date. With the reputation of being q
successful banker, and being man of

IDEALS.

1t is all important that the aim
should be both definite and high.
1t is an old saying that if you
aim at the barn door you will
never hit the weathercock on the
steeple; which means that we
must aim high if we would hit
high. 1t is just as true for real
success in life In any depart
ment of life we rarely get more
than we expect to get. "Ac-
cordingly to your faith, be it un-
to you," involves a principle val
id every where. Expectation is
the first - step in achievement.
Confidence is an element of Sue
cess, even in a game of ball. 1t
is unlikely we will either hit or
catch a ball if we are expecting
to miss. Some one has said that
C.olum bus practically found
America before he left Spain;
and so far from being surprised
when he saw the Western CONT
nent, he would have been SUR
prised if he had not seen it. A
man succeeds as he expects to-
succeed. Predicting III ii tie
failure, he simply fulflls his own
prophesy.
A few years ago a young man
in my home city had kindled in
his heart burning desire for an
education. He had faith to be-
lieve he could obtain it in spite of
tremendous difficulties in the
way. With less than a hundred
dollars in his'pocket, and no GER
tainty as to where another dollar
was to come from, he started for
an Eastern college.
Four years from that time he
graduated with some of the
highest hohors Of his class. The
reason was he believed he could
succeed, and he did. How much
better than to ''hang around
town, !" forever afraid to aspire!
unbelief invites failure in any
department of life; while the
opposite fact is that expectant
aim is largelythe measure of at

with things of this. kind. This
place was begun seven years ago,
and now Operates &c, lilo, looms.
These looms weave. each about
fifty yards of cloth per day, so
you can see an out put of AZ, 500
yards per day is a considerable
amount. Over 900 operators are
on pay roll, so you can imagine
that the expense is considerable.
Wages run from fifty cents to
two and a half dollars per day,
while. the superintendent re-
c ,ive from three to seven dollars
per day. The work is done by
water power, and requires $50
horse power. The mill is on Sec
ond Broad River, and generally
has sufficiency of water power.
Some times the amount of water
is insufficient, and then two i'm
mense Carliss engines are used,
having each $50 horse power.
The plant makes a speciality of
Bingham goods and operates it's
own dye house. The population
of this place is over twelve hun
dced, and about two hundred is
the number of tenant houses.
AS the mill runs night and day,
not as many canbe in school as
should be. The health and NOR
ais of this place, are better than
most cotton mills of the South,
and the people have/a better
dressed, more prosperous appear
ance. The town is also ideal.
In many mill towns of this sec
ton, big .hulking loafers who are
too lazy to work themselves, put
their families in the mill, while
they loaf, white and offer sage
advice. Very little loafng or
drinking is done here. All cot
ton mills>fail to give child prop,
er advantages to secure an edul
cation. The class who move to
cotton mills, never, however,
patronize a school in the country,
and so the mill is not responsible
for the illiteracy. While North
Carolina is, still low in the scale
of illiteracy, it is making better
progress. Another hopeful sign
is its steady upward march in the
cause OF temperance. Nashville,
the great Summer resort got on
water wagon the other day by
immense majority. Charlotte
has been there quite a while and
Salisbury is coming to scratch.
Raleigh has had the liquor under
good control for quite a while,
and Wilmington is getting in
good shape. But while l am a
temperance advocate, and al
ways vote for prohibition, public
sentiment is the court of final re-
sort when it comes to actual So
briefly. No matter what laws
are, and statute books, these can
be evaded. If the Natbpal Gov
eminent were to enact a law
making penalty Punishment or
life penalty for keeping dogs,
