WAS Attempting TO
EAT GRASS when FOUND
Louis FoulkS, Native of Germany,
Is Insane Cannot
Speak English.

Louis Henry Foulks, a native of
Germany, and apparently insane, was
attempting to eat grass in a corn
field at Stanley when arrested by
Deputy Sheriff Winstead Saturday.
Mr.. Winstead was summoned to
Stanley by telephone message from
the residents of that place stating
that an unknown old man was Great
ing much excitement by his strange
actions and had approached several
of the farm houses in that section
and nearly frightened the women and
children to death.
At the county judges office
Foulks told Mr.. Phil r. Zulauf, the
jeweler, who acted as interpreter, the
old man being unable TO speak Eng
lish, that his home was In Newburg,
Indiana, but he could not explain his
presence at Stanley, or account for
his strang actions. He said that he
had been without food for several
days and was starving. which prODa-
bly, discounted for his attempting TO
feed on grass.
Mr.. Zulauf and DR.. ]. Claim, who
also talked with the old man, said
that he was highly educated in Ger
man, speaking the language fluently.
He told them that he was born in
Dresden, Saxony, and was seventy
four years old and although he had
been a resident of the United States
for twenty-five years could not speak
English at ali
At times Foulks seemed rational
and appeared to be highly incensed
that he should be arrested and held,
protesting that he was law-abiding
citizen and committed no offense.
Judge Owen telephoned to New
burg and was told that Foulks for
merly lived there, but had sold his
farm and had moved TO Spottsville,
Ky. The judge was unable to get
telephone communications with
Spottsville Saturday evening and or
dered the old man in the custody of
Jailer Calhoon, who will feed and
take care of him until his relatives
can be located.
1t is the opinion of DR.. Claim that
the old man wandered away from his
home while temporarily unbalanced,
probably caused by the extreme heat
of the past week and, being in a
strange land, unable to speak the
language had nearly starved which
added TO his mental arrangement

No Trace of Father Can be
F0und--Little One Re-
turned Home.

Tuesdays Greensboro Inquirer con-
tains the following pitiful account of
the actions of crazed or heartless
father.
Crying on the street a little girl
was found in front of +. 7. Guenther
Grocery company's store on East
Second street, about 10 O'Clock this
morning.
Upon inquiry it was found that she
had come to the city with her father
Elijah Ransom, and had become sep
arated from him. She was crying as
if her heart would break when she
was found by Mrs. M. f. Cravens and
taken into the grocery companys store
where she was questioned by Mr.. w.
s. Hazel and few others. She said
her father was Elijah Ransom and
that they had arrived on the train al
Z a. m. They came down town and
in some way were separated, and the
girl was crying and calling for her
father, when she was found in front
of the store.
The little girl is about seven years
of age and was we'll dressed. She
had an intelligent looking face. She
had new pair of lace shoes, and
said they were bought at Crops,
but inquiry at Stanley failed to YER
iev her statement The Perkins and
Sanders shoe store was visited, think
ing she knew them by the old firm
name, but she had not been there.
Mr.. Hazel turned the girl over to
Walter Booth, and he started with
her to find her father. She was taxi
en- to the Star restaurant on Second,
between Fredrica and st. Elizabeth
streets, and VISA identified by some
people there.
Her father is Elijah Ransom, and

TOBACCO Held
Two YEARS SOLD.
Louisville Tobacco Warehouse
Co. Sells Green River Leaf.
Was Part of the 1905 Crop Placed
With the Warehouse by
the A. S. Of E.

The Louisville Tobacco Warehouse
Company has sold $500 hogsheads of
the dark Green river crop of 1905,
which was stored by the Green river
branch of the American Society Of
Equity.
The sale is one of the most import
ant i'm years and interests the growers
and tobacco dealers and financial in
terests generally.
The owners of the tobacco had pool
ed their interests through the Society
of Equity and stored the tobacco with
the Louisville Tobacco Warehous Com
pany. The banks had loaned money
on it and a great deal of local capt.
tai was in this way tied up while
waiting for the tobacco to be sold.
The total price that was received fol
the tobacco was about 100000. The
purchasers came to the terms which
mad been fixed by the Society of
Equity.
The Warehouse Company says thai
the tobacco was sold 20 various man
ufacturers and exporters, and that
none of IL was sold to the American
Tobacco Company, the trust.
The consignment was mixture of
leaf, Tugs and trash. The leaf brought
from $40 to $1050, while the Tugs and
trash ranged from $3.50 to 1915 per
hundred. The average would make
the total something over $650,000
with 100000 as the estimated total.
An officer of the warehouse COM
pany said that the sale is one of the
most remarkable ever made in Louis
ville The tobacco has been selling
on the breaks at from $3.50 TO 81
per hundred.
The consignment was received about
a year ago, some OF it coming in as
late as October, 1906, but none of it
was disposed of until late in March,
1907; so that the demand for this
grade necessarily made it valuable
and the purchasers were willing to
pay almost any amount for il when
the Louisville Tobacco Warehouse
Company decided TO place it on the
market.
The effects of the sale, releasing as
it does hundreds of thousands of cap
ital, will be generally felt both in
Louisville and throughout the Green
river section.

Comfy Democrat, paper published
IT Hardinsburg, by Assistant State Or

3. The suit was brought because of
m article, or attack ON Mr.. Sharp,

Moorman, business manager of the
Breckenridge Democrat.
After reciting the facts connected
~ his recent visit to Hardinsburg
am the County Union at that place
the plaintiff quotes the article COM
planned of and which we have here
tofore published. The petition con-
cludes as follows:
He says said statements were and
are false and libelous and were pub
1ished by the defendants maliciously ant
with the purpose and intent to in
IRE. degrade and defame him and to
destroy his influence with the Ameri-
can Society of Equity, and that by

LEGATION, as aforesaid, his influence

Wherefore plaintiff prays judgment
against the defendants for the sum of

that the senate will have an opportun-

Smoot at this session. that is. unless
Mr.. Shoots friends wish 1t. 1t will
be a comparatively easy matter for

big amount OF necessary legislation
that Is pending. OF course IL Mr..
Shoots friends are sure that he has
a majority of the senate on his side,
they may permit a vote, but not other
wise. Apparently there is nothing TO
prevent his case being continued to
the end of his term"
When the attention of Senator Smoot
was called TO 1t this afternoon, he said.
I'VE want a vote. and are ready at any
time. There viii be several senator's
