Protests Against Corporation Tax AL
most Swamp the Senators

most Swamp the Senators.
Washington, June 30.-A flood of
kilograms. nearly equaling that which
swamped the wires during the anti
railroad pass fight. is pouring in upon
senators in opposition to the corpora
ton tax amendment.
Most of the kilograms come from
persons interested in building and loan
associations. but practically every
character of corporate operations is
represented Most of the senators re-
ceived from twelve to fifty kilograms
yesterday, and some at least 100. 1t be-
came evident that there is an organized
movement thruout the country in oppo-
sition to the corporation tax amends
ment
In view of the vehement tone of the
protests and the fact that the telegrams
are from business men highly respected
in their communities, some senators
who are pledged to vote for the admin
istration program said today that they
are feeling some concern as to the wis
dom of the course. 1t is admitted on the
floor of the senate that there are COM
paratively few members who favor the
corporation tax amendment, in spite of
the fact that a canvass shows that fif-
ty-tWo republicans VIII vote for it. If
it We're NOT for the presidents support
of the proposition it probably could not
be adopted

little up-turn from low point, which
was followed by better levels in later

considerable of a boon to the whole

4earlings continue to meet the best
demand in the market. There is
broad outlet for all the fat steers
which are available at best prices of

sufYocated In His Hat.

Fell into his hat and suffocated."
This is the Endorsement on the death
certificate of Alfred Parlow, who was
found dead by the roadside in North
Raynham, Mass, by a neighbor. The
man was on his way to his home, and
tripped and fell. His derby hat slipped
down over his eyes, and his face was
forced into it. The man never recov-
cred sufficiently to extricate himself,
dying OF suffocation.

Manners Of the Past

Count Baldissare Castiglione wrote
OF manners in sixteenth century Italy:
discourse of love is used by every
gentleman not only when i'm
PEELED by passion, but also merely to
do honor to the lady with whom he
speaks. The pretense of loving her
is at any rate testimony to her
worthiness to be loved. She, on her
part, will for time seem to fail to
understand, and anon will take it all as
merry jest"

PARIS KENTUCKY FRIDAY. APRIL 20. 1909
DR.. Bryan Run Down by Train.

DR.. Robert Kenney Bryan, aged SO
years, while returning from fishing
along the l.. & N. railroad, near Glen
Kenney. this county, Wednesday morn
ing, about 10 o'clock, was struck by
SOuth-boUnd passenger train No. II,
fracturing his skull at the base of the
brain and inficting internal injuries
from which he died a few minutes
tai, Lexington, where he was hurried
ly taken in the hope of saving his life.
DIR. Bryan was deaf and did not hear
the warning whistle of the engine as
it bore down upon him and the engi-
neer not knowing he was deaf did not
slow down until it was too late to keep
from striking him. He was rendered
unconscious by the impact and did not
regain consciousness before his death.
DIR. Bryan was half-brother of DR..
+. F. Bryan, president of the Lexing
ton. Automobile Company, who upon re-
ceipt of the sad accident hurried to the
hospital and remained until the life Of
the injured man fiickered out.
DR.. Bryan was in the hospital corps
of Missouri regiment during the
Spanish-American war and after re-
turning, he in company with the other
members of the hospital corps, were
mustered out of service. After leav-
ing the army he practiced his profes-
sion as dentist in Kansas City, Mo-,
and Georgetown, KY, but lately he
became so deaf that be abandoned mis-
practice. He was graduated from the
Philadelphia College in 1876.
At the time of the accident ne was
visiting Mr. Jasper Offut, an uncle of
his brother, Or. F. F. Bryan. He
had been fishing at nearby pond and
was returning home a foot when the
accident occurred.
Besides DR.. F. F. Bryan there is one
other half-brother, Geo. D. Bryan, of
Little Rock, Ark, and Mrs. Ella B.
Rogers, of Georgetown. His burial
services took place yesterday morning
at 1920 o'clock On the Kerr farm in
Fayette County.

Terrific Rain, Wind and Hail
Storm.

The most terrific rain, wind anG
hail storm ever witnessed in this
vicinity passed over Paris Wednesday
afternoon about 3 O'Clock doing damage
amounting to- several thousand dol
lars.
1t first began with heavy rain, fol-
lowed almost Immediately by terrific
wind and hail 1t was indeed squally
times for few minutes. Hail stones
the size of bird eggs pelting down,
caused several horses to run away and
breaking window glasses and skylights
from one end of Main street to the
other on the East side. Not a whole
pane Of glass was left in the big sky
light in the photograph studio, in the
Agricultural Bank building.
Part of the rear wall of the building
occupied By Adams Express Company
fell with the first gush of wind. Agent
Skinner" Dean did not look back &c
see what was the trouble, but with
about three jumps landed in the side
door of the court house and with a
gasp asked G. J. Lancaster whats
the trOuble?'
The rear fence adjoining the express
Office building on Fourth street was
also blown to the ground.
The Episcopal church probably suf-
fered the greatest loss. The glass in
the large and beautiful memorial win
dow in the rear Of the church was
shattered to pieces, nothing left,
strange to say but the statue of St.
Peter which appears as not being
touched by the hail. Two other memo
rial windows on the side of the church
were also shattered. This is a heavy
| loss to this faithful band of workers of
st. Peters church.
Fifty-siX window panes were broken
in the Ficklen building opposite the
court house.
One of the large chimneys on the
residence of Mr.. w. B. Allen, on
Duncan avenue. was blown off, doing
much damage to the roof and side
porch.
The big red silo at M B. Lovell's
dairy plant near town blew over as did
his big hay rick.
1t is impossible to innumerate the
number Of panes of glass that were
broken out in residences and business
houses in the city. Nearly every sky
light In the city suffered loss.
The pelting of the large nailstones
caused the old gentle horse OF MIR. Gee.
W. Davis, hitched to a spring wagon to
break away and run off, demolishing
the wagon against two trees On Pleas
ant street.
The horse and buggy OF Mrs. Gano
Hildreth, hitched on Pleasant street
were both blown over into the street.
The 3 o'clock interurban car came
into contact with a telephone pole
which had fallen directly across the
! track near the fair grounds. The car
WAS running at a high rate OF speed
and the motorman was unable to see
the obstruction until right upon it.
Luckily no harm at all was dune.
F: Several hours after the storm hail
stones could be seen upon our streets
in piles two feet deep. Just outside
of the city limits in every direction
there was little rain, il any, and no
hail.
The aggregate damage caused by the
storm will go into the thousands, most
ly covered by tornado insurance.
