FRANKS FOR GOVERNOR.
Ms Closest Friends Say That He viii
Probably be Candidate For
Nomination.

The candidacy of +, T. Franks,
Collector of Internal Revenue at
Greensboro, for the Republican
nomination for Governor Is not a
joke, according to the statement Of
Fred Van Rensselaer, at the Seelbach
last might. Mr.. Van Rensselaer, has
been appointed postmaster at Ovens
boro and has been power in Dav-
less county Republican politics for
twenty years. During most of that
time he and Collector Franks have
been close personal and political
friends. In fact it been openly said
that the two men have run things to
suit themselves in Daviess county for
many years.
Mr.. Van Rensselaer, made bold to
assert that f. T. Franks was the
strongest man except former Gov.
VIM. o. Bradley that the Republi-
cans could nominate. He also made
a statement that if Collector Franks
could secure the nomination without
a hard struggle or fight that would
engender bitterness he would make
the race. 1t was intimated that W.
J. Deboe, former United States SEN
ator, would support Franks when it
came to the choice between Franks
and some other man. Mr.. Van
Rensselaer, seemed to be against the
candidacy of A. f. Wilson.
Ed Franks is the logical candl-
date for Governor on the Republican
ticket, said Mr.. Van Rensselaer,.
He has been the most successful
politician in the State and man on
whom all the factions of the party
can unite, \, L, Wilson would not
make near the race that Ed Franks
would should he be nominated. Will
son cannot carry Louisville in an
election and Franks can, in my opin-
ion. Ed Franks is the best cam
paigner in the State. and if he Is
nominated he will make things hum
from one end Of the State to the
other.
With Gov. Bradley out of the
race--and he says that he is--Ed
Franks is the man. The Democratic
papers over the State are moking
light of the candidacy of Ed Franks
for Governor from the fact that they
don't want him nominated. The
Democratic editors over the State
know he would make a formidable
race and for that reason they want
some other man nominated. '-Cour-

IN MEMORIAM

called Sallie, was born IN Critten-
den county KY, Sept. ii, 1891.
She was the daughter of Thomas j.
and Sallie Mcconnell.
She was born and reared on the
old homestead near Iron Hill. She
spent her days of childish glee in
the sweet old home where the entire
family was reared. She spent six or
eight years Of her childhood life in
attending the district school at Olive
Branch. Here under various teach
ers she threaded her way thru the
primary aud elementary books,
mastering their contents as she went.
While going to Miss Maud Gill at
Olive Branch, she had hard attack
of diptheria and for awhile had to re-
linquish her studies. After her par
ents removed to Marion, she attended
the Graded School at this place un-
til her affection closed her school
days.
She professed religion at Sugar
Grove when twelve year old in meet
ING held by Rev, W. T. Oakley. She
never Joined the church, but told her
sister during her affection that she
aimed to Join the c. p. church, here
at Marion where she attended Sum
day School. She wss faithful
Sunday School scholar. She first
attended the Sunday School at Sugar
Grove. After the family removed
to Marion she was regular attendan,
at the c. p. Sunday-School. She
never wanted to miss Sunday School
After she became afflicted, the tear'
would come in her eyes when sh,
heard the day-School bell ant
realized that she could not 60, Oh
that others, who are careless abou
attending Sunday. School would tax,
this lesson in heart. life is is too shor
to filter it away in carelessness'
Sallie was a great sufferer, To-
months she bore the most excrucat
ing pain. Seldom have | seen on,
suffer more severely, or bare suffer
ing patiently. She believed very
much in prayer. Often in her ex-
treme sufferings she would call upon
mother or sister to pray for her.
Every thing was done that could be
done for her relief, so far as human
eyes could see both by the attentive
family and faithful physician. Blu,
death came and snapped the frail
thread of life asunder. Death came
and kissed her sweet life from earth
[ to heaven Feb. 9TH 1907.
The funeral services were held in
tbs c. p. church conducted Rev. J. +.
Price and W. T. Oakley. Her re-
mains were laid away in the new
cemetery to await the dawn Of the
resurrection days.
But she has left her testimony be-
hind. She told her mamma that she
was not afraid to die. She wanted tC
live as is natural for those in the
bloom of youth, yet she war ready
to go If the Master called.
She died in beauty! like lay
Along moonlit lake;
She died in beauty! like the song
OF birds amid the brake.
She lives in glory. like mighty gems
Set round silver moon:
She livad in glory like the sun
Amid the blue Of June.

It must have bee very funny

in fits of stifled laughter every few
minutes. The young man in the seat
with her could not help stealing
glance at the pages II the book which
was evidently SO funny, but whose
cover was carefully doubled back out
of sight, and soon he began to laugh
as he unblushingly followed the story
page after page, shaking with sup
pressed merriment.
The woman in the seat at right an
giles became Interested and looked
over the girls shoulder. Presently
her face broade led into grin and
soon she was convulsively shaking.
The man in the seat across smiled at
the scene. boy a few seats down
the aisle grinned sympathetically. A
darby still further down showed ALI
his white teeth. The contagion spread
until the car was nearly on the verge
of Mysteries, when the fair reader got
up to leave the train, yet no one but
the girl herself had any idea as to
what the book was.

In this case the murderer had

they multiply any number, short Of .
decimal, by 9 the two figures Of the

Thus: Nine times are 1S, and and
Z are 8; 8 times are q, and and 2
are 8; times are As, and s and 4
are g.; times 6 are 81, and and
are 8; times are 60, and 3 and 6
are s; times are u, and 2 and z
are 9; 8 time 9 are 81, and and 8 are
8. He might have added that any
number in the hundreds of thousands
multiplied by 8 will give a product
the sum of whose digits is multiple
OF 9. Take at random-9 times 545

Deepest Gold Mine.

Australia now possesses the deepest
gold mine in the world. Within the
last few weeks the shafts at the New
Chum railway at Bendigc, Victoria,
have been sunk to depth of over A..
300 feet, and the quartz there tapped
has been sampled and crushed, with
the result that yield of gold equal
to an ounce per ton has been obtained.
The operations In the mine have been
tested by government officials in view
of the fact that never before in the

from so low depth as three-quarters

His Poor Excuse.

When President Hadley. of Yale,

there, says the New York Tribune. a
student offered him poor excuse for
a bad examination paper.
Prof. Hadley listened to the excuse
in silence. Then he said, with a grim
smile, THAT excuse is about as poor
as the one a criminal lawyer offered
for his client in a case that had gone
hard with him.
Gentlemen of the jury cried this
lawyer, eloquently, remember that my
client is hard of hearing, and that
therefore the voice of conscience ap-
peals to him in vain!"
