Price Paid for Part Of Pool.

State Senator "A. Byron in speak
ing at the Burley Tobacco meeting at
the Fleming county fair at Ewing Fri
day stated the tobacco sold by the So
ciety Wednesday averaged ]9a cents.
the executive committee of the society
has announced that sale was made
on that day of a portion of the pooled
crop of 1909, but have firmly refused
to state what the price was. therefore,,
the declaration of Senator Byron is
the first announcement of the price re-
ceived.
Neither President Clarence Lebus
nor Vice President A. l.. Ferguson,
who were present, would confirm or
deny the accuracy of Senator Byron s
statement and in the absence Of a de-
NAL and from the fact that Senator
Byron is close in the councils of the
society it was considered practically
certain that his statement is based on
official information and in the first an
nouncement of the price paid by the
Reynolds Company for the tobacco
they bought.
Senator Bryon predicted that the re-
mainder of the 1909 pool woulud be
sold for Is cents within sixty days If
the old poolers promptly signed the
new pool of 1910.

Bourbon Men Arrested.

Sheriff Daniel w. Scott of Fayette,
on Saturday came to Bourbon county
and arrested Sim Cook and Edward
Cook, father and son respectively, and
took them to Lexington to answer
charges preferred against them by
Edward Plunket, residing on the Mays
Vile road between Lexington and Ele-
mendorf. The charge against I'd Cook
is assault while that against his faith
er is abusive language.
The trouble between Plunket and the
Cooks is alleged to have occurred at
the John Robinson show in LexiDgt IN
last Wednesday, where Plunket says
Ed Cook came up behind him ano
without propagation struck him.
stunning blow on the back of his heaC
with brass knucks, or pistol or some
other instrument which inflicted ar
ugly cash.
Later when he met father and sor
and accused young Cook of striking
him, he says that the elder Cook be-
came abusive and threatened him with
vengeance unless he dropped the mat
ter. In self-defense he then swort
out the warrants which resulted in the
arrest of the Cooks, who furnished
bond and were released from custody
pending their examining trial in cour
today in Lexington.

Policy Paid in Full.

Notwithstanding his policy for ST.
500 in the Northwestern Mutual Life
Insurance Company had elapsed more
than three years ago for nom payment
of premiums, Mr.. Roy Clendennin,
local agent of the company, Monday
handed to Mrs. Jessie Harris, widow
Of the late E. L. Harris, a check for
the full face value Of her husbatnd' s
policy.
Mr.. Harris took out the policy in
March 1905 and had paid three pre-
NUNS. He was unable to carry the
policy and let it lapse. He was una
ware as was Mrs. Harris that the policy
cont a clause that if for any
reason the policy was not paid, the in
surance for the full face value of the
p0lacy was extended automatically for
a period of six years.
Mr.. Harris was a prominent banker
and met with tragic death about item
days ago as result of the accidental
discharge of double barrel shotgun. and
the fact of his having such an excel
lent policy as is issued by fthe1North-
western Mutual Life Insurance Com
pany, of Milwaukee, Wis, came as this
form of protection to his widow and
son rarely illustrated in lite insurance
circles.

Sunday afternoon Paris and Rich

test full of interest the locals came
QUO the best by two runs while tine il
opponents failed utterly to get man
around all four stations during the
nine innings.
Winchel pitched true to his old form
and held the Pioneers to four safe
drives and only on one occasion were
they able to get man as far as Sec

SATURDAY..

Following their two consecutive VIC
tori es over tine Bourbonites in the dou-
BILE header Friday the Hustler came to
town Saturday afternoon and complet-
ed the third victory by shutting out
the locals insa lively contest by score
of 2 to 0.
Toney. the m lightly hurler and big
league aspirant presided on the rubber
for the visitors and had the locals
completely at his mercy through the
hour and fOrty-five minutes of enter
tainment, although the Bourbonites
clogged the bases on two occasions the
hit that would have counted the taIles
was not Forthcoming.
On the other hand Scheneberg,
while the held the visitors to six safe
ties, came out two the worst Of the
argument. out the Hustlers squeezed
over enough on the half dozen pingles
to carry away the game.
The first three sessions resulted in
blanks for both sides but in the sixth
Reed opened the session with a cork
ing two-bagger to right. Kircher laid
down slow one to Schenebe7g and on
the out Reed advanced peg. Mullins
followed with a slow ore down the
third base line and Reed came home
on the sacrifice.
In the eighth two hits ana an error
counted for them again Goosetree
went out on an easy grounder to Kuhl-
man Yeager followed with a single
to left. Scott fumbled TOney's ground
er giving both runners a berth and
Yeager scored on Caliahan's single to
right.
In the third inning the locals looked
good for run. They opened the ses-
sion by passing THAI and Scheneberg
bounded one over Toney's head. Kuhl-
man popped little one to Toney and
McKernan reached first on Callahan's
tumble of an easy gronder. Kaiser
famed and Goodman forced McKernan
at second.
Again in the sixth the locals took
life when McKernan led off with
singing drive to right territory.
Kaiser followed with safety to left.
Goodman was called out on strikes and
Scott flied to eager for the second
out. Fearing Barnett would lay the
sphere into safe territory Toney DELHI
erately threw four bad ones and filled
the bases. Chapman hit to Callahan
for the third out.
In the eighth inning Hanley called
Kaiser out on strik es which SO incens-
ed the center fielder that bitter ar
gument ensued which TT suited in Kais-
