Final preparations are being made
at the Young Mems Christian Associa-

ment of play. Besides the first five,
the association will have at least four
teams in the House League, with two
games each week.
The candidates for the first quintet
are showing up in great form and all
indications point TO a strong team this
season. while some of he enthusiasts
who have watched the squad at work
say that the five will be the fastest
and best balanced the association has
had in several years. Several of the
regulars and substitutes of last years
ieam are practicing and they show i'm
provement over their form of last
season. Both Monroe and Yann. the
forwards. have their eyes on the bas-
ket and also guard their men well.
Last year was the first these men had
been on the team. and they made the

only once each.
Cottrell. the sub-guard of last sea-
son, has shown great improvement
and his defensive work is especially
good Gayle, last years substitute for
ward, also shows improvement this
year and promises to be a valuable
| man this year. OF the new men, Jack

At present the only place that seems

Attorney E. S. Robinson At
tackS Police Justice Brown.
HOT POLITICAL ARGUMENT
Robinson insinustes That Brown
"eoIted' Democratic Ticket in 1896
and Justice Passes the Lis--Justiee
Mos. to 2 sn. Rescue.

Following rather heated political
argument, In which the lie was passed,
Attorney T. s. Robinson attacked 70
lice Justice J. ID. G. Brown in the
police court room yesterday morning
shortly after the regular session OF the
police court ended. No blows were
PASSED. but after he had deliberately
taken or his coat and laid 1t aside,
the attorney grabbed the justice oy
the shoulders and showed him out OF
the chair in which he was sitting be-
hind bis desk. Justice Brown sustained
a slight brulse on the forehead where
his head struck the wall OF the room
as be. fell. and also slight hurt on
the hip.
Among the witnesses TO the near
fightT were several city officers ana
others and Justice Of the Peace w. L.
Moss. As Justice Brown fell TO the
floor Justice Brown jumped to his Side
and commanded peace in the name oil
the commonwealth. And there was
peace. Justice Moss threw himself into
the breach because there weren't any
...coppers" ON hand to Quell the disturb
ance. No arrests were made
Free silver vs.. Gold.
John B. Locke. who is OF different
political faita from Justice Brown. was
innocenily the cause of the trouble
between the justice and the attorney.
He and Justice John had been joking
about Roosevelt and Attorney Rob n
son Joined in. He turned the CONVEX
sation to the political war OF 1896
when Bryan ran for president on the
free silver platform. Attorney Rob
inson said that the gold Dmeocrats OF
Virginia "bolted' the ticket in the
presidential election that year.
Justice Brown was a delegate to the
stanton convention as gold Dem
ocrat from the Second district. ana
announced that fact. Mr. Robinson de-
clared that Charles O'Ferrell and the
other gold Democrats "bolted" the
ticket Justice Brown. who was lean
ing back in his chair with his feet on
his desk. announced that anybody VINO
said that he had "5olted" the Demo
cratic ticket was - liar"
Attack Was Unexpected.
Declaring that no one could call hin
a liar, Mr.. Robinson began "peeiing
OF his coat. Justice John EVIDENT,
did not expect to be attacked, as NJ
did not take his feet down OF the desk
None OF the spectators interfered ana
after getting his coat off. Mr.. Robinson
grabbed the justice by the shoulders
The chair in which the justice was SIT
ting toppled over. throwing him to the
floor.
While the Justice was lying on th'
floor, Mr.. Robinson said that he nae
not stated that Justice Brown ha'
"bolted." The justice declared ina
= he had taken his remarks to convey
as much, and that anybody who sais
he had sbolted" was liar. In the
meantime Justice Moss had stepped
forth with his proclamation for peace
and there wss no further trouble. Jas

and the best Of feeling does not nov

MANY CHANGES At THE
METHODIST CONFERENCE
In RusseIIviIIe Septeml err 18th
as a Result of the Four.
Year Law.

The law prevailing in the South
ern Methodist church which prohib-
its a pastor from remaining longer
than four years consecutively in any
one charge. will make the session of
the Louisville conference, which will
be held at Russellville, beginning
Sept. % and continuing for five
days, a most important one. Rarely,
II ever, has this law brought about
so many changes at one time. All
over the conference the four-year
terms of pastors and presiding elders
expire with this years work and
Bishop Kilgo, who will preside, will
have a hard job on his hands in max
ing the numerous changes.
Out of the seven presiding elder
ships In the conference there will be
five changes necessary this year.
Those who will have to change on ac-
count of having served their four
years are: The Rev. B. NJ. Messick,
of the Louisville district; Rev. s. j..
Thompson, of the Henderson dis
trict; Rev. John w. Lewis, of the
Hopkinsville district; Rev. R. F..
Hayes, of the greensboro district;
Rev. R. w. Browder, of the Bowling
Green district. The Rev. A. P. Lyon,
of the Elizabethtown district, has
served in that capacity for three
year, and the Rev. T. l.. Hulse, of
the Columbia district, for two years,
and both of these are expected to be
returned to those charges.

MAINE DEMOCRATIC
BY FINE MAJORITY
First Time in Thirty Years
A Sweeping Victory for
Democrats.

Portland, Me-, Sept. 12.-There
was no uncertainty in the voice with
which Maine to-day recorded her
preference for Governor and her atti-
tude on issues of the campaign gen.
orally, the plurality given to Freder-
lex X. Plaisted, of Augusta, Demo-
crat, being decisively large, while
three out of four of the congressional
districts, which are ordinarily strong
ly Republican, returned Democratic
candidates.
Early returns also indicated that
the legislature might be Democratic
and may elect a Democratic successor
to United States Senator Hale.
In the face of the sweeping Demo-
cratic victory, the Republican leaders
are overwhelmed with surprise, and
the magnitude of their success
astonished even the most sanguine of
Democrats.
1t was the first beating the Repub-
licans OF Maine had had in thirty
years, and by coincidence, Plaisted,
father of the present successful can
didate, was Names last Democratic
Governor in 1891.

SIZZLING ROAST
GIVEN DESERTERS
In Tobacco Ranks by Hon.
A. o. Stanley.
MUST Be SOLDIERS OR SLAVES
The Man Who Shows White
Flag Now Was Born
for SerfdOm.
A CERTIFICATE FOR BUMPERS

At Paint Lick, KY, recently, a
monster meeting of tobacco growers
was held, under the auspices of a
pig barbecue.
After speechmaking, which sand
wiched a burgoo dinner, twelve Of
the leading growers signed their
tobacco, and a strong committee un-
dertook the work of personally pre-
senting the matter of the pool to
every planter within the borders.
The chief orator of the day was
Congressman A. Owsley Stanley, of
Henderson, who came to the Blue
Grass especially to attend the coun-
ty barbecue.
Speaking in a figure, the eloquent
advocate from the Second district
summed the issue now before the
farmers in an epigram: Decide to-
day either to be a soldier or a slave
if you refuse to carry a musket,
you will carry a ball and chain
Addressing himself to bakers, he
said:
That man who shows the white
flag now, was born to be a slave. If
you do not realize it, want to warn
you that the moment you lay down
your arms, James B. Duke stands
ready and able to adjust the shack

courage is of the effervescent kind.
Your blood is that of an imperial
race, not serfs. | will not believe
that for miserable pittance you will
sell out.
81 think that Mr.. Duke owes it
to those whom he will buy, to issue
them a certificate. This should
read: Know all men that have this
day bought the soul of John Bumper
with his tobacco
II have seen you sell your to-
bacco at five cents and through CO.
operation l have seen the prices ad-
vanced to fifteen cents and over. On
the eve OF victory, l know that you
will not barter your cause for mon

HORNS ON INDIAN SKULLS
FOUND IN CALIFORNIA

Los Angeles, CAL. Sept. S.-An-
thropologists are endeavoring to dis
cover to what age the Indian bones
that have just been unearthed in To-
pange Canyon, near Santa Monica,
should be ascribed.
The absence of the bones of wo-
men or children is considered proof
that the skeletons are those of war
riors. The foreheads OF the skulls
are low and retreating, while the
jawbones are prominent and the
cheekbones high.
The skulls present an abnormal
growth just above and in front of the
ears. This consists of a norm head
like development on each side of the
head. The embryo horns are about
three inches in length and of the
same composition as the skull.

The recently improved typographi-

aid must have been noted by its
readers. The Herald has recently
bought another linotype and press
and now presents an appearance that
is equal to that of city newspaper.
From an editorial standpoint there
was hardly room for improvement.
The Herald is an honor to it's editors
and publisher and to Ohio county.
