ing Prepared and, Then
Deeds Made.

The government having accepted
the site Of the old Christian church

make the deed to the government.
The government before accepting
the deed, requires a complete alb
stract of the title. Nothing is taken
for granted by the government. The
records must show clear title. All
of the information required by the
government is in preparation.
Nothing will be done on the plans
unit! the title is shown to be perfect.
Each plan is drawn to conform to

C0NV|CTS VISIT Their
FRIENDS EVERY NIGHT
Penitentiary Officials Discover In
geniOuS Scheme TO Get Out
of Cells.

FRANKFORT, KY, Jan. 18.-The
penitentiary officials have been wor-
ried of late by the fact that every
night some of the convicts on one
tier of the cells would get out of
their cells in some mysterious way
and get into other cells and visit each
other. They made no attempt to es-
cape from the prison but simply
wanted to run around and visit each
other. Of course it was done quietly
and the guards never even saw them
as they moved from one cell to the
other, but there we're evidences show
ing plainly that the doors were I'M
locked and the visits made.
After a long and careful search
Col. f. E. Mudd, the warden, found
the kit of tools that had been used
to open the cell doors. 1t was found
in hole in the cell of convict which
had been used for the heating box.
The hole had been carefully cemented
up apparently, but the cement on the
outside covered a narrow little draw
er which could be easily pulled open.
When closed it was hardly discern
able to the naked eye. In the kit of
tools was found several files and a
large skeleton key that would I'M
lock any cell on that tier.
The cleverest piece of work, how
ever was a long piece of wire with
one end wound tightly around a small
bunch of rage. When the guard
would go around each night locking
up each cell the convict who had the
kit of tools and the wire would shove
his little bunch of rags into the bolt
socket just before the guard turned
the key that shot the bolt into. place.
As soon as the guard took the key
out the convict would give his piece
of wire jerk and the bolt would be
showed back and he could walk out
whenever he was ready, take his skel-
eton key and iberate as many Of the
other convicts as he wished

INDOOR BASE BALL
MONDAY NIGHT
Second Game of Series Between Town
and College at Aud
itOrium.

The second game of the indoor bas-
ket ball series will be played tonight
between the college and town teams.
The first game, although ragged and
showing lack of practise, was fully
appreciated by an enthusiastic crowd
and gave promise of some good base
ball to follow. The men of both
teams have put in hard practise all
week and are in much better shape
to play clean and fast baseball.
The town team won the first game
by narrow margin, but the college
men feel that they will carry away
tOnighfs game and from their show
ing they bid fair to do it.
This series is creating a great deal
of interest among friends of baseball
and its development is being eagerly
watched.
The rooters club promises to be
in full attendance and will. keep
things moving. There will be no de-
lays in tonight's game. Everything
will move smoothly and fast.
Batteries will be: Town team, Proc
tor and Duty; College team, Crockett
and Eagle.
Umpire, Jeff Stewart.
Admission including skates, %

SEA TELLS OF

SchCCner Wrecked on Long Island
Coast and Entire Crew
is Lest. 10

New York, Jan. 10. = In biting,
driving snowstorm off the Long ISL
and shore, another vessel, the
schooner Swallow of St. Johns. N. F.,
and her crew, paid the toll so often
demanded of those who go down to-
sea in ships. The story of the wreck
was told by the sea itself, for IL
strewed the beach east of Fire Island
for several miles with bits of wreck
age, from the ship itself and from
her cargo. On some of this fiotsam
appeared the name Swallow, ST.
Johns, n. F." Of the crew, probably
i've or six men, judging from the
schooner's size. there was no trace
While beach man from the Blue
Point lifesaving station was toiling
through the storm, he saw some
black objects in the surf close to the
shore. Finally he came to a sign
board which told the unfortunate yes
sells name.
1t is supposed that the Swallow,
presumably a fisherman, was bound
from Newfoundland to New York.
Caught in the storm, the crew prob
ably lost their bearings and struck
on one Of the many sandbars mile
or so off shore, near the Blue Point
station. There the wind and heavy
seas pounded the vessel to pieces IN
a short time. The Swallow, accord
ing to the marine register, was .
schooner of 73 tons.

FINE ARTS ARE
TO Be FOsTERED
President Takes First Steps For
Their Recognition and Names
Council of Thirty.

Washington, Jan. 1S.-Quick to ap-
preciate the plea that the fine arts
have been denied that governmental
consideration SO universally accorded
by other nations, as suggested by the
American Institute of Architects,
President Roosevelt has taken the
first steps looking to their recogni-
tion by this government.
AS the initial move in response to
requests from the American Institute
of Architects, the president an
nounces that he has asked the insti-
tute to designate the names of 80
men, representing all parts of the
country, to compose a council of the
fine arts. The object of the council,
which is to consist of architects,
painters, sculptors, landscape archi-
tects and laymen, of which the super
vising architect of the treasury is to
be the executive head, is to advise
upon the character and design of all
public works of architecture, paint
ings, sculpture, all monuments. parks.
bridges and other works of which
the design forms an integral part,
and to make suggestions and recon-
mendations for the conservation of
all historic monuments.
Gives Cordial Approval.
Cordial approval is given by Presi-
dent Roosevelt to the recommends
lions of the American Institute OF
Architects. The president says he
will direct members of his cabinet to
refer to the proposed council of fine
arts for their expert advice ons all
matters in their charge embracing
architecture, selection of sites and
landscape work, sculpture and paint
ing.
Moreover" declares the president,
Il shall request the council to watch
legislation and on it's own Initiative
make recommendations to the execu-
tive and to congress with regard to
proposed changes in existing monu-
ments, or with regard to any new
project. I earnestly advise your body
to take immediate steps to secure the
enactment of law giving permanent
effect to what am directing to be
done. The course you advocate, and
which / approve, should not be per-
missive with the executive; 1t should
be made mandatory upon him by act
of congress"
viii Ask Immediate Report.
The president will Immediately
call upon the council for a report as
to the character and location of the
Lincoln memorial After thanking
the institute for its wise and patri-
otto action" the president says it will
secure to the American public what
is literally priceless advice from the
best men in the several artistic pro-
LESSONS throughout the country"
The committee also recommends
that a bureau of fine arts be estab-
lished which should have authority to
approve or disapprove plans and de-
signs Of all future public works of
architecture, etc.
In presenting its recommendation
the committee calls attention to the
many millions of dollars appropriated
for public buildings, monuments and
other works of art, as lasting monu-
ments to our civilization, and de-
clares that under our system, and in
the absence Of proper management,
the results do not adequately and
properly represent or express the
state of enlightenment and cultiva-
ton which our people have attained"

H~OGS-ReCetpts Of hogs this morning
were very liberal for a Monday, ninety
cars being reported in. as against forty
eight cars one week ago and thirty-fiVs
cars two weeks ago. Advices from other
selling points were unfaVorable, large re-
Ccipts and lower prices being the general
Iule. Hogs at this point sold very I'M
evenly, sales ranging from
steady on some OF the best shipping hogs
10 10c lower or the general run OF packers.
The trade Was fairly active and pretty
much everything in sight changed hands
before II o'clock In the morning. The quail
!ty OF the hCgs, according 10 BUYERS re-
ports, was not as good as on most DAYS
last week, there being a scarcity Of good
heavy hogs. Taken as a whole Il WAS noI
a bad market HLd owing TO the quality Of
the receipts, there was really not as much
decline as the sales might show on paper.
