to hear him before the campaign

of the day. however. will be worked

Cruce Leads in Hugo.

Hugo, Okla, July l9.-The Daily
Husonian, heretofore uneXpressed as
TO its preference for governor, but
acknowledged pro-Murray, today took
Il straw vote of the voters on the
streets and of the 100 voters they
expressed their preference as fol
lows: Cruce. 60; Murray, is; osRs,
/: Kirk, 0; undecided, l3.
Commenting on the result, the HUI
scnian says editorially: Prom this
showing Mr.. Cuce evidently has a
strong lead in this locality. His
strength has grown remarkably here
in the past month and Mr.. Murray
has perceptibly declined hereabouts,
correspondingly. or course the fact
that Cruce was here only last Mon
day night and was down at Grant
the same day undoubtedly had had
an effect that would be felt. Murray
will speak here July % and it is
only reasonable to expect him to
win quite a few OF his deserters
back. for deserters a number OF
Cruces supporters are TO Murray.
After the smoke has blown away,
there will be number who will
be out with the oh Il told you so"
story. but be that as it may, the
Husonian is willing to so on record
hat Mr.. Cruce will carry Choctaw
county by a considerable majority"

Mary Wanted a Corset.

Petersburg. ind, May lightning
struck the handmade and secretly
worn corset of nine-year-old Mary Tay
to-day and almost ended her life.
The little girl, daughter of a farmer
living near this city, wanted TO wear
q corset.
So she gathered some tin cans,
slipped into the hayloft of the barn,
and, with o Ratchet, cut and shaped
her stays" With a piece of muslin
she then made what was at least an
imitation OF a corset.
To-day she crawled under the porch
CT the house during a storm. Light
ming struck the porch and Nary's
screams of pain brought her mother.
Dragged from under the porch and uL-
dressed, Mary's corset was revealed.

RESULT OF THE EARTHQUAKE
Wednesday - Awful Scenes
Where Families Died
Without Warning.

San Jose, Costa Rica, May T.
Chimes of the historic Church Del
Carmen, the belfry of which with
stood the earthquake shock Of We'd
uesday evening, tolled requiem at
sunset tonight for CARRIAGES dead.
While the bells pealed out the It'd
ings of sorrow 5000 homeless men,
women and children, their uncovered
heads bowed with grief, stood in ST.
lent prayer upon the hilltops overlook
ing the rains of the ancient city.
Hour by hour the magnitude of the
disaster grows. Eighteen hundred are
dead. Almost as many are wounded,
many of whom will die. Ten thousand
are homeless. Hundreds are starving.
f5eores a1e-beelT- driven insane.
For the brave survivors, who for
three days have witnessed almost un-
speakable horrors, perils, of famine
and pestilence, remain to be faced.
Pioneers of Costa Rica are facing
them with undaunted hearts.
Huddled in camps of refuge, biv-
ouacked under the shadow of the vol
cano Peaz,the city's wealth and poor
alike arose to-day from a third night
of terror, ready to plan for the task
of reconstructing a new and grander
city over the smoking remnant of
what was Cartago-a waste of ashes
and tumbled masonry.
Hundreds of the victims were laid
to rest to-day. Long trenches were
dug and whole families buried to-
gether. Many of the dead were uni
IDENTIFIED. From the ruins scores of
bodies are being removed hourly.
Men of wealth throughout the little
republic have opened their purses to
their unfortunate fellow-countrymen
and are doing everything possible to
relieve the intense suffering which
exists among the homeless, the wound
ed and dying.
AS wreckage is cleared away res
cuers find that in many instances
whole families perished while dining
or engaged in their ordinary voca-
lions. Ruins of homes when explored
reveal parents clasping in lifeless
arms the bodies of their little ones.
Almost the entire republic is in a
state of hysteria because of the con-
tinual earth tremors. San Jose has
been rocking like a cradle since the
middle Of last month and there is n
constant fear among the residents
that the city will tumble to earh with
the next severe seismic disturbance
Some attribute the earth shocks to
the appearance of Halley's Comet.

Two Ohio County Cases Affirmed.

The Court of Appeals affirmed
Judge Birkhead's decisions in two i'm
portant cases last week.
The case of the Williams Coal Co.
VS.. James Cooper, was the largest YER
dict ever given for personal injuries
by an Ohio county jury, and will
amount, with interest, penalty and
costs, to more than eleven thousand
dollars.
Young Cooper was fearfully mangle
by falling slate at Williams Mines
in September, 1908, and his judgment
against the coal company, which the
Court of Appeals decides it must pay,
grew out of his injuries. Messrs.
NJ. l.. Heavrin, Ben ID. Ringo and Err
nest Woodward represented Mr.. Coop
er, while Messrs. Glenn & Simmermar,
of this city, and Sweeney & Ellis, of
Greensboro; represented the 6gfend-
ant coal company.
The case Of the NJ, H. & f. r. R.
Co. VS.. W. H. Renfrow, also decided
last week, involved the right of the
railroad company to Obstruct the Ove:-
flow waters from Rough river by its
track and embankment. A jury in
JudgeBirkheadsCourt gave the plain
tiff Renfrow $500 as damages and the
Court upholds that judgment.
Several similar cases are pending in
court here now.
Messrs. Glenn & Simmerman rep
resented the Railroad Company and
Messrs. Heavrin & Woodward repre-
scented the plaintiff Renfrow.

PROH|B|T|ON|STS
ORGANIZE FORCES
To Advance Movement in
Kentucky.
IN ALL DISTRICTS
For COngresS-StrOng Ticket
Named-NOted Work
erS Present.

After naming candidates for Con-
gress in the eleven districts Of the
State, calling for constitutional
amendment prohibiting the manufac-
ture and sale of liquor in the nation,
and determining to organize through
out Kentucky, the Prohibition mass
meeting adjourned in LouisvilleThurs-
day afternoon. The meeting was held
at rentecostal Hall, 1921 West Wal
nut street. There were delegates pres
ent from all over the State, and sew
eral Prohibitionists of note also at
tended the session. Among these were
DR.. Aaron S. Watkins, president of
Asbury College, Wilmore, Ky, and
the former candidate for the Vice
Presidency on the Prohibition ticket;
Charles r. Jones, of Chicago, chair
man of the National Prohibition COM
rnittee, and Mrs. Frances E. Beauch-
amp, president of the Kentucky w. c.
r. L.
The principal business of the ses-
sion was the selection of DR.. Aaron
S. Watkins as State President,and the
adoption of the plan to have State
organizer or secretary to work under
him for the purpose of putting the Pro-
hibiticn party in real working order
in this State. This plan came as the
result of lengthy discussion
as to the methods of arousing Een-
timent and organizing the party for
a fight to put Kentucky in the dry
column. Several plans were suggest
cd, but on the advice of Chairman
Jones it was finally decided to elect
DR. Watkins as the State President
and to give him good man to go
about the State and create working
organizations in every one of the 119
counties. Just who this man will
be is not known, but 1t will probably
be some Prohibition worker of ma
tional note who will be furnished by
the National Committee.
The other matter of importance act
ed upon by the convention was the
determination to put a full State tick
ct in the field at the next election
and the selection of candidates for
Congress in all OF the congressional
districts. The committee on con-
sressional nominations, composed Of
C. A. Singer, H. w. Davis and the
Rev. ]. T. Belts, announced the fol-
lowing nominations just before the
close of the afternoon session:
First district, Rev. ]. Henry Bal
lard, of Paducah.
Second district, Louis Hancock, of
Providence.
Third district, Prof. W. l.. Cas-
sedy, of Bowling Green
Fourth district, Rev. R. H. Roe, Of
Bardstown.
Fifth district, DR.. J. B. Stroud, Of
Louisville.
