Bad Losses for Vatican.
It is conceded that the Catholics
sustained an overwhelming defeat in
the municipal elections in the city
of Rome last week, which fully de-
termined the plrtial elections of last
Sunday. The usual number of Cath
olic municipal councillors sent to
seats in the capitol is generally more
than twelve, but this year the Cath
ollc voters, notwithstanding their
several organizations, and the urging
OF the Vatican authorities, have only
secured five seats in the municipal
council, while the majority Of the
vacant positions were given to So
cialist candidates. AS consequence
Of the election, both the mayor and
the select council have rendered their
resign atiOns to the Prefect.
Gov. Hughes Accuses Kelsey.
Gov. Hughes vetoed the $4,000
counsel fees demanded by the law
yers who defended Sup ,rintendent of
Insurance Otto Kelsey before the
Senate. The governor again fays
Kelsey and his counsel in a memo
randum annexed to the item, and still
insists that Kelsey is incompetent.
Gov. Hughes said:
''There is no justification for this
item. The proceedings before the
Senate and its committee cannot in
any proper sense be called a trial.
Neither the superintendent nor his
witnesses were cross-examined, nor
were witnesses produced against him.
Counsel did not appear to prosecute
him or to argue in support of the
recommendation. "
The Haywood Trial.
The past week proved to be the
most interesting as well as the most
important in the Haywood trial, as
President Charles H. Meyer, of the
Western Federation, and William
ID. Haywood both took the witness
stand. In the early part of the week
many depositions were read, intend
ed to refute the story of Harry Or
chard, the state s chief witness.
Then Charles H. Meyer told from
the witness stand the story Of the
stormy career of his organization
since he became its chief executive,

With Geo. w. Thompson,

Arrangements have at last been
concluded by which Capt. L. w,

finally given to Mr.. Geo. w. Thomp-
son, of Sandusky, Ohio, an expert
enced hotel man, who is a brother
in-law of Joe P. P'Pool, of this city.

and has recently been manager of
two hotels of the Cedar Point Resort
Co., of Sandusky, o. He is busi-
ness man of fine qualifications, a
courteous, genial gentleman and a
man of imposing presence.
Hotel Latham has been a credit to
the city under the capable manage
ment of Capt. Whitlow for the last
eight years. He has made it one of
the best hotels in the state. The
building is a magnificent structure
and is the pride Of the city. 1t is
expected that Mr.. Thompson will
make but few changes in the opera
tives and will maintain the present
high standard of the house.

down since Oct. 1, pending negOtia-
tions, will be reopened under the

Indictments Against Busi-
ness Firms Dismissed
PeremptOrily.
NO EVIDENCE OF GUILT
Other Matters Disposed of
in Circuit Court Dur
ing Week.

A large number of indictments
were returned last sJune against
leading companies and corporations
of Hopkinsville for using the abbre-
Walton zinc" instead of the word
incorporated" following their cor
porate names. These cases came up
Tuesday on a test case of the Ander-
son G Fowler Drug Co., one of those
indicted, and the court gave per-
emptory instructions to dismiss the
indictments on the ground that
there was no evidence to show that
the abbreviations were used by the
direction of the parties indicted, and
that there was clearly no intention
to violate the law, since the abbre-
Walton used was an attempt to OBJ
serve the law.
The cases against the Anderson
Fowler Drug Co., were thereupon
dismissed. Likewise two cases
against the Meacham Construction
Co, and one against the Giant In
surance Co. Similar IS against
the Forbes Mfg. Co set for the oath,
will be affected by the same decis-
ion.
A motion for a new trial has been
made in the case of Geo. K. Putnam,
who was given FIVE years for man
slaughter, The principal alreason be.
ing that one of the jurors was allowed
to separate from the others and
that the jury was boarded in the
same hotel with the widow and
children of J. G. Wright, the man
killed by defendant.

Refuses 10 Accent Refund.

Fieber & Holmes of Brookville, Ind,
retail lumber merchants, is one of the
firms that are entitled to REIN burse
ment from the southeln railroads I'M
der the recent decision Of the Supreme
Court, which holds an advance in
freight rates on lumber, made affective
rbout two years ago, is illegal, and
requiring the roadt to return to ship
pers the amount paid by them in ex-
cess Of the original rate.
Joseph Eieber, manager Of the con-
Germ, however refuses to accept the
rebates, He declared that neither his
firm nor any other is entitled Ito the
rebates because they lost nothing by
yirture Of the increase in rates. He
explains the matter in this wise:
"When the rate was increased two
cents per hundred feet or from SO to
$12 per car, the shippers Immediately
met the rate incaease with an advance
in pricee OF from 50 to 70 cents. per
1000 Local retail dealers everywhere
accepted the advance as matter OF
fact, because freight rates lad gone up,
and thry in turn raised the price to the
consumers, who in the end paid the
increased faeight charges, and then
some, and the shippers and dealers not
only did not loose anything, but they
increased their ma. gin of profits on
every consignment Of lumber they sent
out.
When Mr. Fieber was requested a
few days ago to make out and sign the
nee essary papers to proVi his claim
againstthe railroads for excess charges,
he declined to do SO, saying he was not
Eentitied to any money from the roads
and would not accept any, unless il
coeld be arranged SO that it could be
Ireturnep in toto to the consumers who
paid it. TX Traffic Bulletin,

Value Of a Dollar.

The value of any article is measured
by supply and demand Circumstanc.
es have been known where even dol
lar was without value. A castaway
aaoat on the oceans boundlesa waste
cares nothing for the dollar that may
be in his pocket, sinse it cannot pur-
chase relief from thirst and hunger.
One of Yerne's prettiest stories, Mys
terious Island, tells how his heroes, to
further buoy their fast sinking balloon
until they might reach land, wore fore
ed to even empty their pockets into the
raging waters below.
A dollars value is therefore govern.
ed by what is given in exchange.
Many convalesoent who has been res
cued from the jaws of death or the tor
lures of rheumatism by the investment
of dollar for one bottle of Andes
Great Prescription will swear it was
the greatest value ever given for a dol
lar. There are hundreds of former
sufferers from catarrh, stomach, liver,
kidney and bladder troubles in this
section today who would swear tbs
same thing. You can prove this, il
you wantto, by calling on Ward a
Friberg for the names Of people who
have been cured with Andes Grea
Prescription. The formula OF this
remedy "a purely vegetable one) il
shown in plain English on each pack
age. Ask any physician his opinion o
it.
If dollar invested for this medicine
will give you good health once more
when perhaps hundreds of dollars in
vested in other ways have failed t
give even relief, would not you, too
be willing to proclaim it the creates
value ever given for dollar? If yor
are sufferer, suppose you try Andes
Great Prescription at once. It cost
$l.00 per bottle, three for ~, so, or al
for $500.
