FRIENDS READY TO MAKE GOOD
HIS SHORTAGE.

Frankfort, KY, Nov 22.-Nothing
was talked about in Frankfort to-day
except the shortage Of Judge Charles
f. Booze, who is Claim Clerk in the
Auditors office, and everybody eX-
presses the greatest sympathy for the
man who is in trouble. Judge BOOe's
friends navx come to his assistance,
and Republicans as well as Demo-
Gratis have been to see him to-day
to offer their assistance. If it was
only a question of paying the short
age and IL that was the only charge
against the accused man, it is be-
lieved that enough money could be
raised to pay his Indebtedness.
However, there is forgery charge
against Judge BcCe and it is feared
that this cannot be wiped out with
out a trial.
Judge Booes examining trial has
been set for Wednesday and lie has
retained Judge Jamss Hazelrigg as
tis attorney. 1t is probable that he
will waive examination and be held To
the grand jury.

RAILROAD WILL BE
COMPLETED SOON
Fresh Work Commenced
On the M, H. s. e
TRAINS WILL Be IN OPERATION
And Running the Entire Line
BY July 1St Next. 1t
ISThOught.
The MadisonNille Hustler says:


A representative of the Hustler in
terviewed Chief Engineer Pagan, of
the NJ. H. G. E. Railroad Company,
while he WAS in jacksonville in regard
to the completion of the new radlroad
and the future intentions of the pro-
meters of the new line, which will
mean so Iiuch for this city when 1T
is finished.
That the railroad will be complet-
ed and trains running into Madi-
8, vile by July l., is evident from
the talk of Mr.. Pagan. He said
that the company would resume
work in 4 short time between Madi-
sonville and Hartford and that 1t
would be rushed until everything is
in readiness for the operation OF
trains. A large force of men will
be put to work as soon as possible to
lay steel rails between these two
points and the other necessary work
incident to the opening of the road
for traffic.
1t is understood that a modern de-
pot will be erected by the company
in jacksonville before the road Is
ready for use and it will be situated
in such, place that it will be easily
accessible to the public.
There is some talk Of the NJ, II.
& E. shops being located in this
city, but when they will be built is
a matter CT speculation. One thing
can be vouohed for, though, they
will be stationed in this city and for
"a while MadiscmWille Will be the ter
minus for the new road. Ultimately
il is believed II will be extended 10
Providence, and there is considerable
talk of it being built through the
country to Dawson Springs. This ds
guess work on the part of the public
and the only ones in position to give
an idea Oc the future plans of The
company prefer not to make their in
tentions kr .wn at this time.
The distance from Madisonville to
louisville will be shortened many
miles by TIC completion of the new
road and il will be of great benefit TO
the people of this city and adjacent
territory IL will traverse will be
who are familiar with the plans and
Intentions OF the company that only
two trains each way will be operated
daily, this number being increased as
the traffic demands It.
The residents of Madisonville are
anxiously awaiting the completion OF
the new road and will gladly well
come it Within our gates. The rich
territory it win traverse will b
fully developed. and this will have
the effect of making Madisonville jcne
OF the most tjhaiving centers of trade
in Western Kentucky. Property values
will be increased, coal mines will be
opened, an influx of people will fell
low, and tie population will be in
creased by those who are employed on
the new rSad.
