That the court, by its iustruc-

Jury to convict Col. ID. b. Cooper

of former Senator +. W. Carmack
was the contention Of Judge An

Judge Anderson read the instruc-

of the Coopers to seek former Sen

The court, in this instruction, =
said Judge Anderson, declares in
effect that the COopers had IA right
to eros, the street and seek Car

street at their peril, and that, if
they went across prepared to use

TUBERCULOSIS
Is Not Only Durable Disease
But it is Preyentab.e.

1t is no longer question of de-
bate as to whether tuberculosis is
irable, it being as well establish
ed that it is durable as that of any
other disease to which man is heir
is durable. Not only is it durable,
but it is preyentable, only ordina-
ry care and regard for the rules of
sane living being necessary to pre-
vent is spread
The fight against tuberculosis
depends upon the education of the
people to the knowledge; first,
that it is a preventable disease;
second, that it is durable. The
establishment of sanatoria, the en-
forcement of the rules of cleanli-
ness and healthful living, includ-
ing particularly the ordinances
and statutes prohibiting eXpectO-
ration, the inspection Of factories
work shops and the enforcement
of rules requiring light and air and
cleanliness and ultimately the iso-
lation of those who have tubercu-
losls just as ri gorous as the iSola-
ton prescribed for those who have
other contagious diseases, will
soon eliminate the dread White
Plague" from among the known
disease, making cases Of it as rare
as are cases of leprosy, or the
black plague.
If newspaper men and the Off
GERS of the law, will unite in the
support of those public-spirited
citizens who are leading the fight
against tuberculosis in Kentucky
1t will be but few years till the
infinite disgrace from which Ken
lucky now suffers, of ranking
nearly at the bottom of the States
as measured by the literacy of its
inhabitants and nearly at the top
of the states as measured by the
number of its inhabitants who die
from tuberculosis, will lie re-
moved. - Lexington Herald.

 Had Narrow tseapes. Horses Became Frightened and Swerved From the Road, With Party Re-
 turning from Pleasure Trip On wetumpka Road.

At late hour last night. fourteen prominent Montgomery people had . narrow escape from possible death ol serious injury. through the overturn- ing of taiiy-ho. in which the party was returning to the city, on the Lower Wetumpka Road. Mrs. George Williams and Mrs. V. B. Day were slightly bruised from the fall. but were reported to be in no serious con- dition at m early hour this morning.
 The ta1Iy-ho party was organized by George A. Montgomery and Mir |. Strobar. of the Montgomery Light and Water Power, Company, to go to the construction camp of the company, on the Lower Wetumpka Road on a moon- light ride.
 Returning home, the horses became Frightened and swerved from the road. down a steep embankment, overturn- ing the tally-ho. and throwing the par ty some distance from the moving ve- hicle. The teams were. however. quiet ed almost instantly. and 1t is to this fact that many in the party escaped serious injury.
 The men of tho party succeeded in fighting the cumbersome wagon, and leaving some of the party on the road among whom were Mrs. Williams and Mrs. Day, returned to the city. wher. surgeons and automobiles were se- cured.
 Two surgeons returned to the scene of the accident. where 1t was found while both Mrs. Williams and Mrs. Day suffered with sprained ankles. no se- rtous injury had resulted. The two were placed in the machines and driven to their homes. arriving in Montgom- cry shortly after 1 o'clock.
