40 TO FARMYARo FOR DRINK.
Maine Nature Story Of Unusual Visit
ors to Farmyard.

James Tibbetts of the Neck Road.
Benton, has been entertaining strange
company for several days. says
Kennebec (Me) correspondent Re-
Gently Mr.. Tibbetts went TO the
barn and turned out his stock. When
he stepped into the barnyard few
minutes later to start the water at the
pump he was surprised TO find bull
and COW moose apparently waiting
for the water.
Mr.. Tibbetts went directly to the
pump and began raising water for the
stock. AS the water poured from the
spout into the big trough among the
first OF the animals TO reach It were
the strangers. Each moose drank it's
quantity and then slowly walked past
the farmer to low place in the fence
where each vaulted over and struck
OF across the field in the direction OF
the woods.
Every morning since the creatures
have appeared in the barnyard when
Mr.. Ttbbetts has turned on the water
The strange part OF the affair lies in
the fact that the farm is well watered
by three small brooks which keep
running all winter and the Sebasticook
river is but few hundred yards
away. 1t is possible the creatures
have discovered something in the
brooks and in the river which sets
their taste going in another direction.
for they are watering regularly at the
Tibbe,ts pump.
The moose have never bothered the
COWS or the oxen Of the Tibbetts herd.
and the latter have never apparently
paid any attention TO the presence OF
the strangers

BIG PICNIC
AT GUTHRIE
The Farmers of Todd County
Have Monster Gather
ing To-day.
SPEAKERS INVITE D.
Two Thousand Invitations
Were Issued BY the
Committee.

Two thousand invitations have
been issued by the committee on ar
rangements of the farmers and plan
tiers of Todd and adjoining counties
to an old-fashioned basket picnic and
speaking to-day at the fair grounds
in Guthrie. The Hon. Joseph r.
Washington will be master of cere-
monies and the following speakers
have been invited: F. G. Ewing, A.
o. Stanley, John Rhea, Joel Fort and
John E. Garner, Jr.
At the June meeting Of the board
of directors of the association it
was decided that no general rally
and barbecue would be held at Guth-
RE this year on the same order as
those held in previous years. 1t
was recommended, by the board, how
ever, that each county hold meet
ing during the summer for the pur-
pose of keeping the enthusiasm for
the organization up to the highest
point. The picnic at Guthrie will be
of greater significance, perhaps, than
any other held in the district. Guth-
RE is the birthplace of the organiza-
ton and has been headquarters since
it's formation.
The committee on arrangements
is composed of W. c. Balee, chair
man; j. S. Limbaugh, w. L. Poin-
dexter, M. E. Webb and Alex .Har-
ris.

Wednesday night.
Rev. W. c. Brandon, of the Meth
odist church, pronounced the cere-

they will touch at nearly every sea-
port of Importance. They will reside
in Manila.
The bride is one of the most beau
tiful and talented young ladies of
this region. She is a daughter of
DR.. and Mrs. W. S. Petrie, of Fair
view.
Mr.. Petre is son of Mr.. F. ca
Petre, of this city.

this matter the closest thought

Mr.. Stanley went to Washington
yesterday, but will soon return and
enter into the campaign. He will,
of course, be heard here later in the

Gen. JOHNSTON
In Hopkinsville on Official
Tour of Inspection.

Adjutant General P. P. Johnston
was in the city Thursday afternoon
making tour of inspection of the
various military camps of Kentucky.
He went to Princeton and after Wis
iting Eddyville and the camps in
Caldwell and Trigg counties return
ed here last night and left this morn
ing for Guthrie.
Gen. Johnston expressed himself
as pleased with the situation in
Western Kentucky. He says public
sentiment has shown wonderful
change since he was here and the
people generally are more outspoken
against lawlessness than in any 9TH
er place he has visited.
He said Gov. Wilson is opposed to
any sort of compromise with the
criminal element.
He intimated strongly that there
was no immediate probability of the
removal of troops now on duty in
this region, but further develop
ments would be awaited. He de-
clared that under no circumstances
would the prosecution of the fight
against night riders be abandoned
until the organization had been bro
ken up and the leaders punished.

Owensboro Collector Will
Make Republican Speech
To-day.
ROAST NIGHT RIDERS.
Expected to Make Prevailing
Lawlessness Burden of
His Song.

The political campaign in the Sec
ond Congressional district will be
formally opened by the Republicans
in this city this afternoon with a
speech by the Hon. E. 7. Franks,
collector of Internal revenue at
Greensboro. in support of Taft and
Sherman. The speaking will take
place in the circuit court room at
100 p. m.
Since the date, was announced
there have been many rumOrs as to
what Mr.. Franks would have to say,
but when questioned in this regard,
the Republican leader will only smile
and look wise. 1t is generally con-
coded, though, that the speaker will
deal at length with the tobacco
troubles in the district, and it is in
timated that he will make this his
paramount issue in his speech.
Should this prediction be fulfilled, it
will at once establish this question
as one of the issues of the campaign
in this state.
Mr.. Franks, more Familiarity known
as "Broncho," is we'll known in this
section. Upon many occasions has
he addressed the voters Of this re-
gion, and he is regarded as one of
the strongest speakers and best cam
paigners in the Republican ranks.
Even under ordinary circumstances
he would doubtless be greeted by a
Hopkinsville Kentuckian. [volume] (Hopkinsville, Ky.) 1889-1918, 1908-08-22
LAID TO BROTHER.
James Willingham Suspected
by COroner's Jury.

Mayfeld, KY, Aug. 21.-Verdict
of the coroner's jury here in the
murder of Foster Willingham failed
to develop more than to name James
Willinghan, a brother, as the slayer.
The brothers bed was in the same
room as that occupied by Willingham
and his wife, and it is believed that
James slew Foster in the night to
revenge an old quarrel, which they
had renewed recently. James Will

New Glover Disease.

The Tennessee Experiment Station
reports new clover disease in that
State.
For several years the Tennessee
farmers have had failures in the red
clover crop, and the trouble seemed to
be getting worse.
The new disease belongs to the class
called anthracnose. It is a definite
fungus or germ disease, which attacks
first the stem of the leaf stock of
clover and eventually destroys the en-
tire plant.
1t appears usually about the end of
June, but this season il came earlier.
The plants first ASSUME an unhealthy
appearance, which is followed by black
spots OF dead areas on the stock
The Tennessee Station has been eX-
perimentng on clover that will re
Sist the disease. and has been able, by
selection and elimination. to produce
plants which apparently are not sub
ject TO ii. Unless there is some mis-
hap, the propagation Of the new clover
