FEUDS AGAIN.
The Hargus Murders Are Re-echoed
in Bloody Breathitt.

ED" Callahan, former sheriff of
Breathitt county, and chief lieutenant
of Judge James Hargis during the feudeJ
that bathed the county in blood. was
shot from ambush and will probably
die. The shooting of Callahan is ex-
pected to revive the old trouble and,
unless strong measures are taken i'm
mediately, the same lawless condi-
tions are likely to prevail.
Callahan had swept out his little
store in Crockettsville and was stand
ing in the front doorway with the
broom in his hands when there was a
crack of a rifle and he fell back. A
puff of smoke in the woods $50 yards
away told where the would-be assassin
had waited with his Winchester for
the appearance of the former sheriff
The bullet struck Callahan IL the
stomach, passed through his body and
splintered a door in the other side of
the room. ed" Callahan was chief
lieutenant of Judge James Hargis, who
was recently murdered by his son,
Beach Hargis, who is serving a life
term in the penitentiary for the deed.
Hargis was the central figure OF the
famous Hargis-Cockrill feud in which
all uHlOlu vi WOlhSn anu
children lost their lives-for even wo-
men and children were not exempt.
During the course of that feud no man
dared fill the Office of coroner in the
county. OF 40 known deaths as a result
of the feud only one man was not
shot from ambush and that one was
shot in the back. Through the north
and east it was the general belief that
a code of honor existed in the back
woods of Kentucky, but 80 of these
40 murders were the work of hired as
sassins. A common phrase in the dis
trict was.
Here. take this IS. kill my man
and bring back the change"
Callahan is said to have helped
Judge Hargis plan many killings. Both
he and Judge Hargis were arrested
six years ago after the killing of At
torney j. B. Marcum, who was assas-
sinated in the street near the Jackson
court house. Callahan was appointed
sheriff by Judge Hargis and enemies
of the Hargis clan declared they were
prosecuted by him.
The immediate cause of this most
recent shooting is thought to have
been a dispute over the management
of church Callahan built in Crock
ettsville and of which he is a deacon.
In Jackson a few days ago he told
his friends he was fearful of his life.

The State Treasury.

That Michigan is on the way to-
wards an empty treasury again is
shown by the figures of the monthly
statement issued by State Treasurer
Sleeper as to the condition OF the
various state funds. 1t shows a bal
ance in the general fund of $267,-
1858, which is not very large
amount to provide for the running ex-
penses OF the state until another tax
levy is collected. There are, how
ever, some receipts which state Off
GERS say will amount TO enough to
sustain the fund until about August.
William Jennings Bryan will lecture
in Muskegon June IL. He will ar
rive early in the morning so he can
go fishing with Justice Benjamin G..
Oosterbaan on Muskegon lake.
Judge North gave a decision of no
cause for action in the suit of ex-
Mayor Frank w. Dickey, of Marshall,
against the Calhoun County Agricul-
tural society. Dickey presented a
stub membership ticket, minus five
admission coupons for admission to
the fair on September IL last. 1t
admission to escape being removed
from the grounds. He then brought
suit TO recover the amount. Justice
willetts decided in his favor, but the
society appealed and he is now or
dered to pay a s25 attorneys fee. The
case is of statewide interest to fair
societies. II may be again appealed.
Despite the fact that they were
suspended for ten days, several of the
Pontiac high school students, who
were implicated in the recent near
riot attended school Tuesday and went
to classes. Principal Bishop was moth
fed of the suspensions, but notwith-
standing this fact students were per.
mitted to continue in school.

PLAY COMING.
"THE CLANsMAN' to Be Seen

That much, talked of play, "The
Clansman" is booked for Que night,

of american drama Eat its best will
look forward with pleasant anticip.-

among the most noteworthy of the
season. The play is as celebrated as
any dramatic Offering Of the past fifty
years. Fonrded ON these famous
novels, the .:"Leopard's Spots" and
the Clansman," it is in character and
treatment an original work. No
scene which could justly give offence
from dramatic or moral standpoint
has been retained but it fis rich in
comedy, in love interest, and full of
tragic power, particularly in its deli
neations of the terrible Ku Klux
Khan. Among the Chief scenes u.il-
lied are those Of the Ku KIux Khan
den, vast ill lighted cave in the
mountain side; the rose garden Of th..
Cameron home; the interior Of this
historic South Carolina manson
an the library OF Lirutenant. Gov

Unsanitary Places.

The attention of the saai-
tary inspector is hereby called
to the existance of filthy sinks
and privies in the back of To-
Cal restaurants. The Gazette
knows of this from personal
investigation. One restaur-
ant il particular, enjoying a
good patronage, has an open
privy in fearful condition a.
bout forty feet from the
kitchen and DINING room,
without any screening to pre-
vent flies from carrying dis
ease germs in the victuals.
These places are sources of ty-
phoid and other germ dis
eases, and unless immediate
steps be taken to clean out
the filth and place screens to
prevent flies going to and
from the kitchen and dining
room, this city is liable to an
epidemic of disease.
An other duty the sanitary
officer is derelict in is that of
garbage reinoval-or rather,

pntrefy in any body's prem

promptly at frequent inter
walls, thereby removing q
source from which flies get
disease germs on their feet
and then deposit them on the
food of people.
The sanitary inspector is
paid to do his duty and un
less he does it better in the
future he should be promptly
fred and a good man be put
n his place. Lafayette Ga

A BIG REGISTRATION
Every Ward and Precinct
Shows Increased Num-
~" Der Of Voters

tuesday was registration day, and
the returns show that there are 1O89
voters registered for the city election
which takes place next Tuesday. This
is 154 more than was registered for the
last spring election. Although there
was a hot contest on last spring for
city g omces t ana very little this spring,
the fact that the postofice fight is on
and that the rules made by Congress-
man Llndbergh, that IN order to vote
at the polls on the postmastership Il
is required that the voter shall first
have voted at the polls of the citv
election, undoubtedly is the cause of
the large registration. Voters ara
registered as follows:
