evangelists; that We urge the church
es to give to missions weekly that
the work may not be conducted on
the credit system; that each Sun

of a challenge from Central City High
School West kentucky Seminary
High School played a select team of
Central City ON Centrars floor on
last Friday evening. The Beaver
Dam boys were expecting to play a
High School team, but after arriving
on the grounds it developed that
Central had no High School team,
there being only one High school
man on the team, who was removed
at the close of the first half. The
West Kentucky Seminary team
was therefore forced to play the
best team that Central City could fur
nish regardless of school, or re-
turn without playing the game, so
the game was played which from the
first was very hard game. The Boa
er Dam boys not beirg accustomed TO
the floor and very poor lights We're
laboring under very unfaNorable con-
ditions.
The first half was unfavorable to
the West Kentucky Seminary
boys the score being 10 to in fav
or of Central City. After a rest of
ten minutes the game was Resumed
West Kentucky Seminary entering
the second half with a determination
to play as rough as Central City.
which she did, running the score
IA to ~ in favor of West Kentucky
Seminary. Towards the close Of the
second half Taylor who was center
on the West Kentucky Seminary
team was layed out with dislocat-
cd shoulder. Time not being called
by either captain Central having no
Captain as could be learned. The
West Kentucky Seminary Captain
not caring to call time the twenty
minutes were out for the close of
the game. at which time the referee
declared the game endsd. The Central
City boys raised a complaint, but
to no avail. The West Kentucky
Seminary boys left the floor having
won a very hard fought game. with
everything against them except the
determination and ability to win.
1t being in the agreement that Cen
trail City was to bear the expenses
of the visiting team. but she even
refused to stand by her agreement in
this. The West Kentucky Seminary
team paid their own expenses and
went on their way rejoicing.

The miners have been trying to put
out the blaze with a line of hose,
but reported that it was too hot for
them to get near enough.
1t is not known here just how the
fire started. Tn evalue of thu new
apparatus is now receiving a practical
test, as those working in the mine
in case of this kind have no means
of entering very far without a con-
sistant supply of air which the hol-
NETS furnish their wsarers.
1t is Necessary at Starns 70 shut

tiveS Are Distressed.
Supposed That Miss Elmore and
Veachel Westerfield Have
Eloped to Indiana.

The Whitesville neighborhood is in
den disappearance of Miss Cluse Ell
more, aged IA, and Rosie Smith and
Veachel Wastarfield, IS and 10 years

minent families of that place. All
three have been missing from their
homes since Saturday night and mom-
bars of the three families have inquir-
ed everywhere near as to thsir wherc-
abouts but had not located either of
them this morning. 1t is the suppo-
sition by all that young Westcrfield
and Miss Elmora had eloped to some
town or city in Indiana, and were
married as they have bean sweethcar s
for four years, says the Owensboro
Enquirer.
Smith is supposed to have accom-
panied them on their elopment. Smith
is the son of Lonnie Smith a farm
and the owner of general NOR
chandise store at Bells Run, and his
parents are said to idolize him.
Smith bundled up his clothes in

ents were at Pleasant Ridge, trad

bride from her home, while her grand
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joel Gilmore,
with whom she lived, were attending
services at Union Grove church. She
got out of accompanying them to
church by stating that she was i'll.
With the assistance of Miss Elmore,
Westerfield took her clothes and hid
thin on the road Saturday afternoon.
1t is supposed that the girl and the
two boys met at some point on the
road, for they We're last seen togeth-
er near Whitesville, headed for Ow-
ensboro in a buggy which they had
rented from a stable at that place
On reaching Greensboro the owner Of

Owensboro and claim the turnout
This was the last heard from them.
The relatives of the three are very
much distressed over their disappear
ance, and cannot imagine what has
become of thsm or why they do not
return home. The parents and rela-
tives are doing all in their power
to learn the whereabouts of the
three Riddles"
1t is stated boy was seen answer
ing Smiths description on the boat,
Inquirer, Sunday, coming down from
Rociport and that the young man
was inauiring about Whitesville. It
was the superstition that THE three
had gone to Rockport and that Miss

ried here, but information from that
place states that they were not mar
riad in that city.
