FINAL SLEEP CAME
CHRISTMAS DAY.
To DR.. Smith To AnnihiIate Suf-
fering Of Years--FaithfuI
Public Servant For Over
Quarter Century.
A MODEL FATHER AND
AN HONEST PRACTITIONER.

The joys and festivities of Christmas
are never without their sorrows, and so
was Cloverport's Christmas this year.
The calling away just at this time, of
servant to his last reward who has
been always and without ceasing, faith
full to his trust for the last thirty years,
could not but dampen the spirits of a
glad yuletide. Such was the death Of
DR.. Francis Marion Smith, of this city,
at two O'Clock in the afternoon Of
Christmas day. The final sleep came
to annihilate the pains and agonies of a
years known suffering and, too, the
sufferings of years previous unknown to
any save himself, whilst he was adj
ministering to the sick and careing for
the wounded. Few men have
ever been held in higher esteem in the
minds of Cloverport and Breckenridge
county people than has DR.. Smith. He
was model father, even indulgent to a
fault, true husband and an honest
practitioner of his profession.
DR.. Smith was born near Hardins-
burg in 1916 on May S. Educated in
the Hardinsburg Public schools, the
State College at Effinham, N. H., and
at Bodin College, Maine. Returning to
Kentucky he taught school both in
Hardinsburg and Hawesville, and then
entered the Louisville Medical College,
graduating in 1876 After two years
practice each at Lewisport and Tobins-
port, Ind, he came to Cloverport to
enter upon his final service which end
ed in death. Soon after coming here he
married Miss Matte LaHaist, who sur
wives him with three daughters, son
and step-daughter. He is also SURVIVE
ed by three brothers and a sister.
The funeral services were held Sat-
urday afternoon from the Methodist
church, Rev. b. NJ. Currie officiating,
and the interment was made in the
local cemetery.
Those who attended the services from
distance were: Mr.. Willis Smith, of
Owensboro, Mr. Enick Smith, of Irv-
ington, Mr.. Wesley Smith, of West
View, brothers of the deceased, Mrs.
John Cheaham, of Owensboro, a neice,
and Mr. VIM. Hensley, Hardinsburg.

FROM IDLENESS
TO USEFULNESS.
Ohio River Springs Forth Again.
Big lows SOOn To Come.

After many months of idleness, the
Ohio river has again come to the aid of
local rivermen plying up and down the
stream and the last ten days has shown
marked improvement in steamboat and
smaller craft business. A thorough and
general resume of trade is expected
within a week or so and the millions of
bushels of coal at Pittsburgh will
be coming South at an early
date. The transportation of coal from
Pittsburgh to New Orleans by rail is
$4.S7 against Is cents by water. Many
of the rivers North of Cincinnati tribu-
tary to the Ohio are blocked with coal
barges awaiting rise to be foated out.
When the big towboat "Sprague"
comes South this year it will be the
sign of relief having come to the opera
tors and coal miners of Pennsylvania
and West Virginia.

County Tobacco Fields And Not

legged By Farmers In,
Meeting Here Mon.
Therefore Not Representative Of
Local Crop.
ANOTHER MEETING SATURDAY
TO SETTLE CONTROVERSY.

Monday afternoon at the City Hall a
hundred and fifty Breckenridge county
TOBACCO growers gathered to attempt to
settle a controversy involving them
selves and the American Tobacco Com
pany of this city, arising over the prices
paid for tobacco now being delivered
here. The farmers interested are afilla-
ted with the Green RiverTobacco Grow
ers Association and we're led by G. T..
Mason against the local representative
oft the American. Recently the local
crop was sold at Owensboro to the
American and it is understood that a
veltbal agreement was made whereby the
fathers were to deliver their tobacco at
Clbverport and receive nine, nine and
thltee on the basis OF certain samples to
bee gathered from the various crops in
Attkis section, by Frank Dean represent
tng the sellers, and Mr.. Haynes, rep
lcesentng the the buyer. The samples
,were sent into the local receiving house
land all tobacco delivered here was to be
accepted and paid for as per the samples
lat hand. A few deliveries were made
1and the tobacco did not compare favor
ably with the samples. The American
would not pay number one prices for
n mber three tobacco. Deliveries stop
ped and the war meeting called to de-
termine whether or not the samples in
hand were truly representative of the
crop to be delivered. Chairman Mason
of the meeting called for discussion
of the matter when 1t was stated that
the samples were pluoked from Hancock
county and therefore not representative
Of the local crop, the samples being of
superior grade of tobacco. Cert Pate,

were appointed committee to meet on
next Saturday here in Cloverport rep
resentative each of the Green River
Tobacco Growers Association and the

conditions. 1t is very important that
