ALL SMOKE.
East Seventh Street Resi-
dence Had Many Sunday
Callers.

A fire alarm was turned in from
the residence of Mr.. Chas. F. Jar
rett, TAB East Seventh street Sunday
morning just as people had started
to church.
By some unknown means a box of
clothing in the pantry adjoining
the parIor had caught on fire, and
though not burning rapidly the
rooms on the first floor were filled
with smoke. The fire department
did not use any water, and threw
the box and burning contents out
doors. The only damage sustained
was the probable loss of garments
that were in the box.
Mr.. Jarrett's residence is one of
the best in the city and had the dis
covery of the fire been a few
minutes later, after Mr.. and Mrs.
jarrett had started to church, there
would doubtless bave been a destruc-
tive fire.

QUIET WEDDING.
Karl Dietrich, of Pennsylva-
MIA, Claims a Kentucky
Girl For His Own.

In the calm of a summer after
noon at the home Of Mr.. Davis Gar
nett, a brother of the bride, at Penn
broke, the destinies of Karl L. Die
trich and Miss Mollie Garnett were
united last Saturday. The officiating
clergyman was Rev. w. E. Mitchell,
who, in short but beautiful cere-
mony, and in the presence Of but a
few relatives of the groom and bride,
united the lives of the young couple
who have loved each other from
childhood.
After the ceremony Mr.. and Mrs.
Dietrich drove to the city to remain
until Monday with the parents of
the groom, Prof. and Mrs. c. H.
Dietrich. Mr.. Dietrich left Monday
morning for Berwick, Pa, where he
will arrange for taking his bride in
short time. He has been with the
BALDWIN Locomotive Works, of Phil
adelphia, for several years and has,
by his intelligence and industry, won
advancement after advancement in
construction work. Before coming
back to Kentucky for his bride he
contracted to go into the service of
a large steel concern at Berwick.
The marriage Of the young couple
was really no surprise to their
friends, though it may have &C.
Cured little sooner than was ex-
pected. Everybody wishes for them
happy future.

OPERATOR KILLED
While Substituting For His
Friend Sunday.

A car on a north-bound Louisville
and Nashville freight train jumped
the track at Warrington, on the
Christian and Hopkins county line,
Sunday afternoon, taking four other
cars and three oil tanks with it. One
of the cars crashed into the block
station, instantly killing Fred Long,
of Warrington, who was substituting
for the regular operator, Charles
Francis, for a few minutes. Longs
body was horribly mutilated.
The box cars were empty, but the
tanks were filled with oil and turpen-
tine, which caught fire, and all of
the train which could not be moved
was consumed. Traffic was delayed
for about ten hours, and the wreck
is considered one of the worst ever
known on the Henderson division.

Painful Injuries Sustained
by Youthful Hunter
Near Casky.
HAT BLOWN FROM HEAD.
Companion Mistook Foot For
Squirrel and Fired
at Object.

Tom Dillman, son of Mr.. j. H.
Dillman, of the Casky neighbor-
hood was shot and painfully wound :
ed by Emmett Hayden, son of Mr..
Leslie Hayden, of this city, last
Thursday.
The youths were hunting in the
woods near Mr.. Dillman's residence
and became separated. Young Dill
man saw a squirrel and lay down in
an effort to get shot. His compan-
ion, seeing one of his feet move, and
mistaking it for a squirrel, fired at
the object. He missed the foot, but
the load of shot lodged in young
Dillman's legs and back. While his
injuries are of a very painful nature,
he is not seriously hurt, though he
had very close call, his hat being
torn from his head by the charge
and several shot passing through his
that band.
DR.. Austin Bell was called and
rendered the necessary surgical aid.
About two dozen shot were picked
from the wounds and several, which
were deeply imbedded, were left in
the flesh.

He is her natural custodian and is pre-

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, September I6-President
Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia Uni

months vacation in Europe on the Ham

some facts about problems that are con-

Ter also heard some nice things said in
Germany about the Roosevelt professorship

In his stay in Berlin the president of
Columbia was a guest on two occasions of
kaiser Wilhelm. who, said Dr. Butler to-
DAY, had nothing to say of Importance
to the outside world
The most interesting thing that came
under my observation in my stay in Eng
land was the strong movement looking
toward reform in oxford and Cambridge, /"
said DR.. Butler. Two occurrences lately
nave started discussion in England over
the remedies that can be applied for rec
oSnlZed deficiencies One of these Circum-
stances was the appointment of Lord Cur

Curzon and Reforms.
Lord Curzon is a man of considerable
force and the expectation is that a man
of his temperament and experience in broad
affairs will undertake reforms In the in
stitution that have long been recognized
as necessity. The second element in the
movement now engrossing the attention of
all the college world In England is that
furnished by the very strong speech made
