Unable to Solve Mystery Of Assault
on Irish Girl.

on Irish Girl.
Chicago, Feb. 1S.-A mysterious
case that has put the police at sea
developed when the unconscious form
OF Miss Ella Gingles was found lashed
to the supports of a bathtub in the
Wellington hotel. Whether she was
the victim of a plot. as she incohe-
rently alleged in her few conscious
moments, or chose fantastic means to
retaliate on a woman whom she be-
lieved to have been her enemy. is the
question that the police set about to
solve.
Attorney O'Donnell, who is ac-
quainted with Miss Gingle, tells a
strange tale of her trials. He out
lined story of how the girls youth,
virtue and beauty made her the OBJ
ject of persecution on the part of a
man who, he said, was well known in
several states. This man, he de-
clared, was aided by at least one
woman in his efforts to get unholy
possession of the Irish girl, who has
no relatives on this side of the At
lantic. Thwarted, the conspirators
multiplied troubles about their vic
TINS head. Still she resisted, aided
by good friends.

State to Get Souvenir.

Bucyrus, O., Feb. 18.-Representa-
tive l.. H. Battlefield of this city will
present the state of Ohio with novel
souvenir. Mr.. Battlefield is coin col
lector and has framed copper cent

The first represents the date of the
adoption of the original constitution
of the state and the second the date
the new constitution was adopted by
vote of the people.
The Winchester news., 1909-02-18

The News proved that it would not
take outside advertisements" or
words to that effect.
The News has now been running
over four months and has refused
many advertisements from Lexing-
ton and other places and some of
them in the same line of business as
this gentleman. What better proof
can be asked than that.
If merchant is interested in the
upbuilding of this city, he knows that
"a daily paper is one of the best means
to that end and should therefore en-
courage it. The News asks no man
to advertise unless he is getting his
moneys worth. We are not running
a charity bazaar here; but business
enterprise. But if the columns of
this paper are good advertising me-
diums it should be used by all the
local merchants.
Now is the time that The News
wants and needs advertising, not six
months or a year hence. Later, ev-
erybody will be glad to get in these
columns if they have anything to sell
for they will then appreciate their
value. But when everything is out
go and comparatively little coming In,
is the time that advertising is ap-
preciated.
We said to this gentleman that if
we went to Lexington and secured
the advertisements of firms compet-
ing with him, he would probably be
one of the first to cry out against
our course and say that we were
hurting the business of Winchester.
But he for one is not encouraging
us in our present course.
The News is easily the best adver
tising medium in Winchester. 1t
stands in class by itself. Week
lies and circulars and bills of all
kinds cannot be spoken of in the
same breath. They are mediums for
the small town which cannot afford
anything better.
The press run today is 1000. The
highest it reached, which was 100,
was within three weeks after the first
number was printed. In that time we
had exceeded our. capacity and were
obliged to take our solicitor off the
road. We have done nothing since to
secure circulation, feeling that it was
wiser to wait until we were in a pO-
SluOn 10 nandle IL. we naQ expect
ed that we would lose 200 or 800 who
had taken the paper at first through
curiosity, and that our circulation
would probably drop back to 1900 or
400 hundred But it has kept up
far better than we expected. And
because of that fact and also because
we had barely touched the field in our
first campaign for circulation, we
now believe that when the Duplex is
in operation we shall easily reach
$500 or 5000 within the present year.

Is Permitted to Write Epithets Ap-
piled by Cooper to Carmack.
Nashville, Tenn. Feb. 1S.-Marked
by bitter quarrels between attorneys
and by new and startling testimony,
the second day of the Cooper-Sharp
trial for the murder of Former Sena-
tor E. w. Carmack closes with the
state highly elated and the defense
apparently perturbed. The tension
between the factions has tightened
visibly. This is indicated in the court
room by bitter passages between op-
posing counsel and outside by more
bitter talk by partisans.
There were star witnesses and all
of them women. Miss Mary Skefing-
ton, the state librarian, told how on
the day of the murder, wnen within
200 feet of the scene of the shooting,
she met John Sharp, one of the de-
PENDANTS. Just as she greeted him
she heard three shots and asked
Sharp what it meant. without turn
ing around to learn, she says Sharp
replied: That's Dune Cooper shoot
ing Senator Carmack."
By the second witness, Miss Daisy
Lee, stenographer in the Office of
John Bradford, an attorney for the
defense, was told how on the morning
of Nov. 9, the day of the tragedy,
when she arrived at the office, she
found Colonel Cooper already there
in conference with hic CON She
heard the colonel denounce Carmack
for using his (Cooper's) name, and
declared he had a right to protect
himself. Later she heard Colonel
Cooper apply to him (Carmack) cpl
thets so vile that she cried when or.
dered to repeat them. The court per-
mitted her to write them, and when
they were read she covered her face

Very truly,
E S. SMASHEY.

E. S. SMASHEY.
When Mr.. Smashey says "as an
ex-pubEsher | have some curiosity to
know how it is possible to install a
press of the Duplex make in a city
like Winchester" he evidently does
not know this city. He realizes what
a Duplex means and that there are
very few, if any, cities of this size,
that could support so expensive a
press.
The Duplex press is usually the
third step taken by a new daily
newspaper. First Campbell such as
The News is using now does service
for several years. Then when it is
found impossible to print any longer
on that, a faster press is secured
such as a Miehle. Still both sides
of the paper have to be printed on
different runs and there is still much
delay in the publication.
And finally when the circulation
has grown to 5000 or 1000, the jump
is made to the Duplex which is the
best press made for any paper with
circulation up to 5000 or 5000 a
day.
The News had faith in Winchester
and its future. The support already
gwen to the paper has been so fiat
tering and the circulation had begun
to climb SO rapidly that we took the
plunge and sunk over $1,000 Of our
good dollars in the press, motor and
accessories.
We are satisfied we have done the
wise thing. The Duplex will last for
the next twenty years and handle all
the circulation that we may hope to
secure. 1t is up to the merchants
and business men of this city to prove
to us that we did wisely in having
faith In the city's future.
Several of. the leading firms have
not yet contracted to use space in
The News. In conversation with one
of these merchants the other day,
he reiterated the statement which he
made at the time The News started.
ssthat they would not advertise until
