How a man does like to have his
wife refer to him as an authority on
anything
A woman isn't necessarily the sun
shine of a mans life because she
makes it hot for him.
When a man shouts his virtues from
the housetop it's time for people to
sit up and take unfavorable notice.
Every married woman shoulc
imagine that her husband is the only
man who has brains enough to under.
stand her.
If the festive gobbler escapes the
Thanksgiving slaughter on account Of
old age he should rejoice because OF
his tough luck.
REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.
The reason the baby is always so
smart is because its parents aren't.
When a girl meets a man she likes
in the street by accident 1t hardly
ever is.
All woman has to do to be able to
manage a man is not to be married to

The reason a woman can think her
husband is clever is because she
knows he isn't.
A woman can deceive everybody
about how she trusts her husband, es-

Long Trip Back Home by Dog.

San Francisco, Cal The instinct of
dogs, which often leads them long dis
tances to their original homes, has
again been instanced in Oakland. Sent
to the western part of Montana last
December, greyhound yesterday ap-
pesred at itsold home in Oakland, much
to the surprise of Michael Ryan, its
former owner. Ryan conducts kennels,
I'd last December he sold two grey
hounds to a man going to Montana.
Yesterday a travelstained and foot
weary greyhound appeared at the
kennels. Ryan went to drive it away,
but on seeing him the dog gave an eager
bark and leaped up to welcome him.
Ryan recognized the greyhound, which
had travelled more than fifteen hundred
miles, guided by animal instinct, and
again reached its old home. Mont

Convention 0ratOry.

At least two Of the addresses deliver

oratorical gems, one by Augustus
Thomas, the playwright, and the other
by Congressman Ollie James, of Ken

than these sentences from Mr.. James
address:

land liberty's dearest shrine, cry out to
the millions of voters into whose hands

with her own laws. This compact wa
duly ratified and became a part Of
the first constitutions Of Kentucky,
50 that Kentucky guaranteed tn eval-
idiry of the title 10 lands that had
been granted persons BY the State
OF Virginia, and such grants were
known then aud now as the Virgin
Ia Land Gratis ...
There were thousands Of acres OF
land in Kentucky, however, that had
not been granted by Virginia, aud
there We're ethousauds Of acres that
had been granted fer which the titles
had never been perfected, SO that in
1.-THE succeeding years the State Of
Kentucky desired to. dispose Of the
land and issued many patents for land
that were covered by # Virginia
Land Grants" and from I'D. uutil
the present time there hns been con-
tinual controversies over the titles
of the Eastern Kentucky lands, 49,.
In later years, however through
the discovery OF valuable beds OF coal
MS deep and as rich as can be found
anywhere in the world, and the OPP
ehing up OF this territory, lands
thought to be practically valueless
became worth millions In value and
there was scramble to buy up the
lands and regain them under the old
Virginia Land Grants
During all these years the owners
Ct the land through the grants had
had done nothing TO develop the prop
orty, had paid no taxes, nor supported
the Commonwealth, and 1t was not
until the lands were developed by
peronss acquiring them from the State
of Kentucky that their claims for
the lands were seriously set up. So
valuable did the lands become, that
the State in its effort o secure some
revenue from them, In 1906, bill was
passed by the General Assembly, and
became a law, requiring the owners
OF the lands TO list them for taxa
ton by the first of January, 1907,
and pay all the taxes due on the land
for the years OF 1901 10 1905, inclusive,
or forfeit the lands TO the Common
wealth. The lands of the Eastern
Kentucky Lands Corporation and
many others forfeited under this act
and the Court Of Appeals decided
1t was constitutional. ..-.
The corporation and others in their
answers to the suits, however, claim
ed that systematic effort was
made to array all the local interests
OF the counties in which the lands
claimed by them were located, and
threats Of assassination, menace OF
violence and personal injury were
resorted to TO influence the courts
and to terrorizee their counsel and
employees In he performance OF
their duties. When the trials were
held in Eastern Kentucky, the noun
taineers, armed with rifles, as many
as $50 to 600 In a body were report
ed to have ridden from 40 to SO miles
across the country to prevent the
corporation and others from secur-
Ing an assessment Of their proper
ty for taxation. All of these allega-
tons were given due consideration
by the Court Of Appeals, and now 1t
Is up to the Supreme Court of the
United States to declare for all times
the much-mooted land titles of East
ern Kentucky.
