CLOTHES were
FROZEN TO SKIN.
Young Men Fleeing from Flood
ed Homes in Boats Are
SWamped BY Waves.

With the clothes frozen on them
and unable to move or speak, Will
liam Goodwin and Clifford Mayo,
living in the Sodom settlement, be-
low Enterprise, Ind. were rescued
late Sunday afternoon, after being
exposed to the fury Of the storm
and flood for twenty-four hours, says
the Owersboro Inquirer.
They started to leave their homes
late Saturday night in a small row
boat to reach higher ground. Their
families had already been moved
out. The great gale caught the two
men and filled their boat with water.
The wind blew them toward the
deeper part of the river. The men
jumped from the boat and swan
and waded a quarter of mile to
the deserted home of Charles Brown.
Here they could find neither match
es nor food. The water covered the
first floor of the house and the men
crawled to the attic, where they at
tempted to rest and their clothes
froze on them. With the coming of
daylight Sunday morning Goodwin
knocked hole through the roof
and crawled out on the shingles.
He put his coat on a pole and waved
it as a distress signal. In the biting
gale he stood for seven hours until
his signal was seen and rescue par
ty took them to safety. Mayo was
more dead than alive.

QUARTERLY COURT CON-
TINUES two DAYS.
Beda Local Against Steve Bennett
Most Important Case, DecIs-
ion Not Yet Reached.

Quarterly Court convened at Court
Hall Monday with Judge w. B. Tay-
lor presiding. The first days bust
ness was soon disposed of and Court
adjourned until next day.
The first case called for trial on
the assembling of court Tuesday
morning was the case of Beda Local
A. S. of E. against Steve Bennett
involving the right to the posses
sion of the Secretary's book be-
longing to the Lodge. On the call
ing of the case the defendant Ben
nett rendered to the plaintiff lodge
the book and money which he had in
his hands and offered to confess
judgment for same as settlement of
the matter. This tender was
promptly accepted by plaintiff and
it seemed that the matter was about
to be adjusted without any trial or
further controversy but the defend
ant moved the court to tax the cost
of the proceeding against the lodge
which was objected to by plaintiff
and the court decided to hear the
evidence, whereupon several wit
nesses for both sides were sworn and
their evidence adduced. The court
took the matter under advisement
and has not yet announced his decis-
ion.
The case of E T. Williams against
DR.. B. n. Patterson was the only
other case in which much controver-
sy arose. This was decided in favor
of Williams.

SHOW ELEPHANTS And
CAMELS GIVEN WHISKY
To Prevent Their Taking Cold
and They Staggered as They
Walked Through Snow.

Peru, Ind, Jan. 23.-Thirty-one
circus beasts on a wild jag, rushing
through the streets, was sight wit
messed by the people of Peru to-day.
Hagenback's shows, which have been
merged with the Wallace shows, ar
rived here this afternoon on the Wa
bash from Mexico, to go into winter
quarters. Among the animals were
twenty-one elephants and sixteen
camels. The beasts shivered when
they saw the snow and felt the chilly
atmosphere. Four inches of slush
covered the ground and the air was
raw and damp.
Fearing the animals might catch
cold barrel and half of whisky was
mixed with bran and this was given
to the big animals. When the ele
phants and camels stepped out Of
the cars into the snow they became
very noisy, trumpeting and bawling
with great vigor. Eve hundred
people, who were watching them fell
back, fearing the elephants would
break away from their keepers. The
big beasts were hurried though the
town to the winter quarters, a dis
lance of three miles. 1t was novel
spectacle to see the elephants and
canels acting as if they didn't care
a straw whether school kept or
not"
They appeared to be none the
worse for the jag.

Destructive fire AT
STEVENS RESIDENCE.
Discovered and Alarm Given Just
in Time to Save the House
From Entire Devastation.

At five o'clock Wednesday morn
ing the residence of Mrs. S. T. Stew
ems was discovered on fire by board
err who was awakened by smoke
and roar of the flames. On being
notified of the fire Mrs. Stevens
went to the telephone called the eX-
change and asked the night operator
to give the alarm as best she could
over the phone. Other boarders
were aroused by cries of fire! fire!
and the rumble of trunks and furni-
ture being removed by occupants
of the second story, where the fire
originated. By this time nearby
residents had been awakened. The
court house and the Methodist
church bells were rung and in twen-
ty minutes after its first discovery
the fire was well under control and in
thirty minutes it was entirely extin-
guished.
1t is practically certain that the fire
originated from a live coal falling
from the CRATE to the floor in one of
the upper rooms. After burning a
hole through the floor it followed
the opening between the floor and
plastering to the wall. From thence
it had easy access to the garnet where
it had made great Roadway when
citizens arrived, the whole interior
seeming to be on fire. The flames
were smothered very materially by
the metal roof which prevented any
vent from above. Had it not been
for that. the house would certainly
have burned.
Four rooms were rendered unin-
habitable and the furniture was
damaged considerably by water and
rough handling. The loss is estimat-
ed at from $500 to $500 which is COW
cred by insurance.

DAMAGE. ON green
and BARREN RIVERS,
Farming Properties Much Injured
by High Water Prevail
ing and Past.

'Great damage has been done
along Green and Barren rivers, both
by the November rise and the pres
ent rise" said Captain w. S. Wright
captain of the Willim Preston Dixon,
the government boat that operates
on these rivers in recent interview.
Really, | think that the Novem-
Der rise did more damage than has
been done up to the present time by
the present rise. Much corn all along
the bottoms was ~ungathered when
the November rise came and that
was allowed to rot on the stalk.
Along with this fencing in the low
lands was swept away.
THE river at Spotsville and for
some distance above is higher at
present than it has been since 1898.
The lowlands in that section are
completely submerged and farmers
nave been forced TO take their stock
and many their families to the
high lands for protection. Much
complaint is being made. The river
in the upper section is not as high
as it was in November last, the rains
this month having been carried off
rapidly. Near the mouth. though,
the Ohio river has backed up the
water and the conditions are much
more fearful. 1t is impossible to es-
innate how much loss the farmers
will incur by the rise, but high wat
er always gives them an awful set
back. 1t takes several years to re-
cuperate after high water on any
river"

Killed in The Mines.

Willie Geary, a boy sixteen-years
old and son of Amos Geary was
killed in Echols mines last Friday by
being run over by cars. He was a
trapper or door keeper in the main
entry and when signaled, opened the
door for the motor and cars to pass.
When they had passed, as he thought
he undertook to close the door and
was run over and killed by some
cars that had broken away from the
load and being down grade, were
following along after the train.
His remains were taken to Rosine
and buried in the family burying
grounds Saturday.

Fierce Gale Sweeps Over Ohio
Valley Without Serious
Results.

One of the tiercest gales of recent
years swept over the Ohio valley
last Saturday night. 1t was charac-
terized by the very few disasters
which it wrought
The Commercial Hotel at Hart
ford suffered as serious damage as
any reported in Ohio county. A
section of the coping or fire wall
above the roof was blown over on
the roof.
The Government dredge boat at
the Hartford wharf broke away
from its moorings and was driven
against the bridge with terrific
force, damaging both bridge and
boat considerably.
The stock barn of Mr.. James
King. two miles north of Hartford,
was partially wrecked, one end
being blown few feet out of posi-
ton.
A barn belonging to Mr.. Jap
Sanderfur, of the Nocreek neighbor-
hood, was blown down and torn to
pieces.
A barn belonging to Sam Morton,
of the Ceralvo neighborhood was
unroofed.
Fencing in nearly every section of
the county was much damaged.
At Evansville shipping was greatly
hindered and many boats were con-
siderably crippled. The Green river
packet, Crescent City, was blown
from its moorings into a cornfeld
across the river, but was later recov-
cred with but little damage.
In Daviss county few barns were
slightly damaged, shipping at Owens
boro was crippled and several water
crafts injured.

No MONEY TO
PAY TEACHERS.
Seeming Lack of Harmony
at Frankfort.
County Supt. DeWeese Makes
Special Arrangement for Ohio
County Teachers.

From letter received this week
by County Supt. DeWeese from
State Superintendent Fuqua, it
would seem that all is not sweet har-
mony at Frankfort among some OF
the present State officials. In an
nouncing the fact that the State
Treasurer had failed to provide the
fourth payment for the fifth month
and suggesting that the Treasurer
had 5000, 900 to credit of that fund,
a strange condition of affairs is de-
picted. Here is The letter:
"Supt. J. M. DeWeese,
Hartford, Ky.
Dear Sir:-I am very sorry that
the treasurer has not paid the teach
ers on time. There is no reason why
they should not have been paid on
time. We have over 5000, 900 to our
credit and the draft is not more than
half that sum. He says that he will
nav them the first of next week. |
am not sure that he will for they
promised to send them out the mid
die of this week and did not do 1t.
See what you can do to get him to
pay it. | have done all that | can
do. Very truly.
II
JAS. H. FUQUA, ST.. Supt. 2. l"
January, 10, 1907.
1t seems to US an unusual condl-
ton, when the State Superintendent
appeals to County Superintendent
to assist him in persuading the State
Treasurer to pay the teachers of the
State the money which belongs to
them. when it is to their credit, or to
the credit of the school fund for
their salaries, already earned. The
letter also charges bad faith in effect
upon the part of the Treasurer who
is also a candidate for Auditor on
the Democratic ticket this year.
We learn that after Mr.. DeWeese
had made the necessary financial ar
rangement and paid the teachers, the
draft came in, drawn on the Citizens
Bank, of Shelbyville. AS the pre-
vious one was on the Hardin Bank,
of Elizabethtown, this would seem
to indicate that the 100000, which
Supt. Fuqua thought was in the
State Treasury, was really scattered
around among some favored banks
of the State, and probably on time
deposit. so that it was not at once
available for the teachers. Mr.. Flu
qua says they" had promised him to
send the daft the previous week but
had failed to do so, and calls upon
Mr.. DeWeese to see what he can do
to persuade the State Treasurer, and
Democratic candidate for State Au-
ditor, to do his duty. This isa pref
ty kettle of fish,"
