PAT rYUoE, ONCE hANoscMEsT
YOUTH IN ILLINOIS. oWELla IN
MYsTERious LONELINESS.
KEEPS SILENCE FOR ~ YEARS
Lives In Old Tumbie-oo Hove'
Near Aurora and Few Know Him
-Rumor That He Has In.
herited Wealth.

Chicago. - Kipling's Man Who
Was" might almost be the counter
part of Pat Tyuge, who lives five miles
south Of Aurora. Ill.
For more than 40 years he has lived
alone In q tumble-down house which
once belonged to his parents. who
came from Ireland and settled'in this
valley.
During that time he has hardly
spoken dozen words to anyone. He
does not work. He eats very little.
and sleeps on q bed OF cornstalks.
The house which shelters him Is fall
ing to pieces. When a window pane
falls out he replaces 1t with a shingle
that has blown from the roof. Where
the shingles were he has thrown loose
boards, fallen from the side Of the
house. Thus the house is made to
supply the material for its own re-
pairs.
In this hovel, that affords little pro-
lection from the weather, this strange
man lives. neither holding communi-
cation with the outside world nor al
lowing 1t to approach him. He has no
books or papers. His food consists Of
potatoes and corn. small quantity Of
which he raises In the yard at one side
Of the house. Once a month or 80 he
goes to Aurora and buys . little salt
and pepper. He does not smoke or
drink
It IL doubtful II he remembers more
Of language than the few monosylla-
bles which he uses in making these
purchases. He shuns conversation
and lives the life Of hermit.
Fifty years ago Pat Tyuge was -
handsome . boy ~ the state could
boast Where he now lives was the
center Of an IRISH settlement. His
parents bought the land and were
rather thrifty. Then Pat fell in love
with pretty girl. daughter Of . neigh.
bor. and. % the legends have It. she
jllted him.
The boy disappeared and soon after.
ward the Tyuge family moved to Kan.
sas. leaving their house empty. Two
years later the young man returned
and took his abode In the house his
parents had vacated. It Is said that he
told the neiGhbors he had been in Ire
land. He wandered about through the
valley and over the hills. looking often
toward the west. as II he expected
some one to come to him. He was at
that time ~ secretive a. he 10 to-day.
The Gossips declared he was waiting
for the girl to return. Then II became
settled that he was looking for his
parents.
But neither the girl nor any Of his
family ever came back. and he gra1u.
ally gave up bis wanderings and,
stretching himself on the floor q the
hut. gave himself up to his own
thoughts.
When anyone approaches the house
he slips inside and retires to the rear
room. where he Elowers more like .

Kentucky is beginning to feel that
she has a governor at last Mr.. Will
son is doing the right thing in 80
many different ways that it is hard
to pick them all out, but mostly his
actions are based on two principles:
that all men shall have justice, and
that the law of the state must and
shall be enforced. These are the two
principles on which all good govern
ment rests, and he could do no better.
The governors greatest achievement
so far has been the bringing OF peace
between part of the tobacco growers
and the trust. This is more fully de-
scribed in another column, as is his
prompt reply to Chief Justice O'Rear.
who made a speech condemning the
sending of troops into the disturbed
districts.
The governor has made two other
speeches during the week which haye
shown what he intends to do. The
first was at a banquet In Louisville,
where he declared that the law was go
ing to be enforced in this state to
the full limit OF his powers. and that
the old shame OF Kentucky, and her
reputation as a lawless and violent
state would soon be ended. This is
fully in keeping with his sending of
troops where they are needed, and his
refusal to pardon Powers OF to act
in any other cases Sefore the courts.
The other speech was at banquet
given in his honor in Cincinnati by
the New England c Association. The
editor of The Citizen had the pleas
ure of being present on this occasion.
and can fully testify as to the simple
earnestness and vigor with which Mr..
Wilson spoke He said only a few
words. and INDUCED in no oratory, but
told plainly and simply his desire "to
be Of some use" There was no mis-

ing OF the state. He has called for
advice from a number Of important
men of both parties. saying that he
believes that all honest people are in
favor OF a fair division OF the state.
Also he is reported to be considering
the election law. and 1t is understood
that recommendations as to the cor
rection Of these two great evils will
be practically all that he will lay be-
fore the legislature in his first mes

MONEY TALKS
How Bank Saves Money for
Its 0epositors.

Most farmers do not keep a double
entry set of books for their accounts
and If they have their money deposit
ed in this bank they do not need any
bookkeeping Of their own.
A large number OF the farmers al
ready have accounts with the Berea
Bank and Trust Company. They make
II rule to deposit all their money in
the bank as soon as they get It, and
then pay the store keeper, the work
hand. and all their other bills with
checks drawn against their account.
These farmers are wise. They have
found that money deposited in a bank
is not so easily nor so often fooled
away" as It would be carried around
in the pockets.
They have also found out that pay
ing bills by checks Is much CATER than
paying with the money, because the
person they give the check to must
sign his name across the back OF the
check before he can get the money.
and the books Of the bank will always
show that he got the money.
II your money is deposited in the
Berea Bank and Trust Company. It
will be safe from loss by fire. thieves
or carelessness. You will not be so
likely to spend it for something you
do not need.
And your money will always be as
fully subject to your control as it
could be in your own pocket. The
man who pays all his bills by check
never has to pay twice.
We want the account Of every farmer
the email accounts as well as the
large ones. II you have never tried
this plan Of keeping a record of your
business. It will be money in your
pocket to think the matter over.
