Body Of
Little Alma
KeIIner Found
Missing Louisville Girl Had
Been Murdered
Remains Discovered In Basement
of Catholic School and Jani-
tor is Missing.

Louisville, Ky, May 30.-The body
OF Alma Kellner was found in a sub
cellar at St. Johns Catholic school at
10 O'Clock this morning by a plumber
who had been sent into the cellar to
look after the water system, which
was out of condition.
The man was Mortified at the sight
that met his eyes and ran to the street
and gave the alarm.
The cellar was little used and posi-
bly, no one had been in it for several
months, with the exception of the little
girls slayers.
1t is evident that she had been muir
dered. Six ribs and her back we're
broken. She was wrapped in an old
carpet and quick lime had been thrown
over her body, partially destroying it.
One leg with foot attached was found
buried three feet deep in the cellar.
Positive Identification was made BY
Frank Fehr, uncle of the dead girl.
1t is the theory that she was attack
d and killed where she was found.
Her body had been in the cellar for ma
ny months.
Alma Kellner. young daughter of
Frederick Kellner, was believed to
have been Kidnapped from the home of
her parents on Dec. 8. 1909. Police
officers and detectives throughout the
country have searched for her, Her
parents are wealthy and related to
Frank Fehr, the millionaire brewer.
and fabulous rewards were offered for
her recovery. Her parents. almost dis
tracted. have waited in vain, hoping
that she wonld be found, and when the
news of the murder and finding of the
decomposed body was told them, the
parents broke completely down.
The entire city is wrought up over
the heinous crime, done by a heartless
wretch.
Thousands of people hurried to the
scene at st. Johns School when the re-
port of the discovery of the body was
made. Excitement is still high and
morbid thousands lurk around the scene
of the brutal murder. f'-

Beer For Danville p?
Brewers Want To Ship 1t In But
Courts Must Decide.
(DanvIlle Advocate. }

L. (Danvllle Advocate.
ThQ president Of the Kentucky Brew
ers' Association with headquarters in
Louisville. telephoned Circuit Clerk
Price this morning for copy of Judge
Sauhey's decision in the Bunk Raum
case. The high mogel of the brewers
stated that Danville is a wet town"
and that the distillers propose to ship
their goods to this town. At present
the express companies are refusing to
accept any consignment OF liquor for
DanviIIe on the ground that it is dry
town.
The president of the association also
stated that the Southern Express Co.
would be mandamused and force the
carrier to deliver beer shipments from
Lawrenceburg. Lexington and Louis
vile to Danville customers, as the city
is wet and can not be governed by loca
option laws. At present all liquor:
must be shipped from another state.
Many people think the court of ap
peals will reverse Judge Sankey's de
cision. while others feel that il will be
upheld. A decision is expected in the
course of few days.

Post Office
Blown Open
And Robbed
Midnight Marauders Clean
Out Safe and Get Away
About $500 in Coin and StamgS
Secured--Work Seems To BE
That of Professionals.

Unknown cracksmen blew open the
safe in the Stanford postofIiee early
Tuesday morning and secured about
500 in cash and from $3.50 to $500 ia
stamps. Postmaster Florence cannot
tell the exact amount until he checks
up his books.
Entrance to the building was effected
by breaking the glass in the windows
above one outside lock boxes. The
robber went about his work in meth
odieal way. He undoubtedly was an ex-
perienced hand at the game.
A hole about half an inch in diameter
was drilled in the safe just above the
combination lock with a powerful drill
Ready for business now. the marauder
then mixed his "soup''--As nitro glyeer-
in is called in the criminal parlance-' on
a shelf in the rear Of the Office. He
did not use all Of the supply Of explosive
he made. but left some on the shelf in
a dirty white handkerchief. mute evil
denee OF the means employed in the
robbery. but aiTording no elew to the
robber.
The explosion. which followed and
gave access IN the contents Of Uncle
Sans strong box, was heard by many
people IN town. No one seems 10 have
attached any particular significance TO
It, however. most Of those who heard
Il passing IL of as loud shot fired by
some late roisterer. George II. Farris
heard the explosion but did not get ur,
thinking Il was some one firing IN
Balls alley. Rural Route Carrier Jesse
Manning. who had been out in the
country spending the evening with
friends. came back to town about mid
night. He was turning the corner OF
Main and Whitley avenue when he
heard the explosion, but thought moth
ing Of n more than to wonder what il
was.
1t is generally believed that two men
must have minded the job, one acting
as lookout while the other did the dirty
work. They did clever job and got
away with but little chance Of capture.
There was some talk Of getting blood
hounds but the government will make
no allowance for such expense.
The robbers could easily have gotten
out Of town on an early freight. or the
morning passenger trains.

Man Bird Makes Great Flight.

Glen II. Curtis flew from Albany to
New York City in an aeroplane Sunday
winning the $40, 900 prize offered by the
New York World. He covered the dis
lance Of 1877 miles in two hours thirty
two minutes, and came to earth as
calmly and as lightly as a pigeon. His
average speed for the distance, "a GO
miles an hour, surpassed any record
ever made by an aeroplane in long dis
lance flights, and in its entirety his
feat perhaps eclipses anything man has
attempted in a heavier-than.a ma
chine.

MUCH ACTIVITY IN
FINANCIAL CIRCLES.
Lincoln National Increases Capital
And Surplus--New Bank Is
Meeting Much Encour-
agement.

Much interest is being manifested IN
banking circles in Stanford since the
announcement last week Of the organ
ilation OF the State Bank and Trust
Company. Financial interests have
been stirred and business has received
an impetus which augurs well for the
continued growth and prosperity OF the
community.
At meeting Of the directors of the
Lincoln County National Bank Satur-
day il was decided to increase its capt.
tai stock $50. 900 and the surplus $780,
600. The bank will then show a capi-
tai of slOO. 900 and surplus Of $780,
600. a splendid showing. At the first
meeting of the directors OF the FIRST
National Bank il is expected that a
cashier will be elected TO succeed the
late John ]. McRoberts. Several have
been mentioned for the place, but II is
not thought that the directors have def
initely decided upon the man as yet.
The promoters Of the State Bank and
Trust Company say that they are very
well pleased with the success which is
attending their efforts to secure liberal
subscriptions to stock. They are pleas
ed with the way the people of Lincoln
are manifesting confidence in the future
OF the new institution by subscribing
for stock They say that there is mo
reason why three banking institutions
should not do we'll in Stanford. and
point TO Lancaster mot nearly so good
a business point-whieh supports three
and all do a nice business.
The promoters are still negotiating
for a suitable location for the new
bank. They have several storerooms
under consideration. but have made no
definite arrangements as yet.
