LINER'S CLOSE SHAVE.
St. Paul Almost Went to Bottom When
 She Sank British Cruiser.


 Southampton, April 29.-As the Amer. ican line steamship St. Paul lies at the dock her yawning bows show that she narrowly escaped the fate of the Brit ish cruiser Gladiator, which she ram- med and sent to the bottom in a fear full snowstorm.
 The total number of dead and miss ing of the Gladiator's crew is twenty eight.
 Divers searched part of the sunken cruiser for bodies, but found none.
 The opinion among shipping men and naval officers and officials appears to be unanimous that the accident was unavoidable.
 All witnesses of the disaster agree practically that both crews behaved as well as was possible. Many of the Gladiator's men were rescued by the St. Paul's' boats, no one on the latter vessel being hurt.
 There will be the usual naval court and an inquiry by the board of trade.
 The passengers on the St Paul who acted so coolly during the trying few minutes following the collision could hardly have realized the danger in which they stood. They were assured by the officers who hurried among them directly the boats came together that there was no danger, but the condition of the steamers bows, disclosed as she lies at the dock, shows that she had a very narrow escape from meeting the same fate as the Gladiator. As 1t was, the St. Paul was more seriously dam aged than at first supposed. She ship ped great quantity of water through her broken plates, and from the mo- ment she backed away from the wreck ed cruiser until she reached her wharf all her pumps were kept going to their full capacity.
 The damaged bows of the St. Paul indicate that she forced her nose at least twenty feet through the cruisers side, but fortunately the greatest dam age she received was above the water line.

ing Al Henderson.
. A. EVERITT THERE.

The State Union of the American
Society Of Equity held its annual meet
! ing at Henderson Thursday and FRIDAY

that A. S. of E. people were not night
riders.
An unexpected incident and one that
created much excitement was the ap-
pearance in the convention of /. A.
Everitt, former president of the
National a. S. of E. There was a
difference of opinion as to whether or
not he should be heard and this
difference resulted in quite a bitter dis
cussion. 1t was finally decided to allow
him to speak which he did at P. M.
His speech contained an attack on those
who deposed him at the indianapolis
convention and criticisms on the
directors including NJ. F. Sharp, Of
Kentucky. He was listened to with
marked attention.
The delegates to the National CON-
vention were named and among them
were the following: Mat Shrewsbury,
Ed Oglesby and w. r. Pierce from
breckenridge county, E. J Snider, w.
o. Spencer, and J. B. Holland from
Hancock county.
The next annual meeting of the state
A. S. of E. will be held at Madisonville.

was elected president of the Association.
David Moreland was made vice-presi-
dent, and S. B. Robertson was elected

WeatherhOlt'S Groceries Tempted
The Theft At An Early Hour
Monday Night.
MADE GOOD his ESCAPE

The grocery store of J. c. Weather
holt in the East End was broken into
between the hours of 9 and 10 O'Clock
Monday night by a negro. He was
evidently a very nervy theft or, at least,
a very hungry fellow to have commenc-
ed his work before the people had gone
to their homes for the night.
Coming across the bridge, Harry
Weatherholt saw a man at the store
whom he thought was his father, but
when he got to the door he saw the
glass was broken and a negro was
standing on the inside of the building
holding to the lock. Mr.. Weatherholt
gave him to understand if he did not
let him in he would get his brains
scattered AT this information the
negro ran to the rear of the room and
Mr.. Weatherholt gave an alarm, but
before anyone came to his assistance
the theft was making his way toward
africa"
The negro had just entered the
grocery when Mr.. Weatherholt discov-
