A New Rabbit Law.

Much Misrepresentation as to
game law passed by the last Leg
islature has arisen in this county,
and probably in many other
counties, especially as to setting
traps and snares for rabbits and
other game. The act that pass
ed was very brief and is as follows:
That it shall be unlawful for
anyone to set a steele trap. dead
fall or snare, or to loose or hunt
with a ferret upon the premises
or property of another without
first securing the written consent
of the owner of the premises or
property, and anyone thus offend
ing shall be guilty Of a misde-
meanor and upon convictisn shall
be fined not less than $5. nor
more than $25.
Having in possession game
caught as set out in section l,
shall be prima facie evidence of
guilt as herein provided.

HORRIBLE BOILER
EXPLOSION
Another Mine Horror This Time in
This County-Victims Of Dis
aster Blown to Atoms.

Two men are dead and much
property destroyed as the result
of another terrible mine disaster
to be added to the long list in
Western Kentucky.
The scene of the latest horror
is the Bell Coke & Coal Mining
Company's mine, which is located
about a mile from Tradewater,
in an issolated spot in the hills of
North Crittenden. The first in
timation neighbors had that any
thing had happened was short
ly before midnight Monday by
the shaking Of houses and rat
ting of windows. Many people
walked from sound sleep terror
strickened and waited for further
manifestations, but from the
dull, heavy sound they decided
that there had been an explos-
ion.
The machinery at the Bell
mine was being run at night in
order to pump water out Of the
shaft. The men in charge were
J. T. Clifford and Charles Travis.
When last seen by the other
men of the mine they were alive
and well, but when the men
rushed to the mine after the ex-
plosion they found only mangled
pieces of human beings.
The big boiler had exploded
with terrible force, wrecking the
building and hurting the men
high into the air and mangling
them almost beyond recognition.
Sorrowfully their friends
gathered the torn remains to-
gether. but Travis head was
missing entirely and could not
be found. The men were both
well known and had families.
Clifford came from st. Joseph,
Mo.
Travis head was found later.
He is a brother Of E. Jeffrey
Travis our county school super
intendent, who left for the scene
at once.

THE COURT and A
SOLDIER HAVE TILT
Judge Gordon Promptly Directed
Sheriff to Bring Soldier Be-
for the Court.

An amusing episode in connec-
ton with the term of the Circuit
Court now in session. with Judge
J, F. Gordon on the bench, was
a clash between the civil and
military authorities Saturday
when soldier who was sum-
moned to appear before the
grand jury refused to accept
the summons.
Judge Gordon promptly direct
ed sheriff Joel A. G.. Pickens to
bring the young gentleman be-
fore the grand jury at once and
to summons sufficient deputies to
do so. The officer lost no time
in getting the soldier into the
jury room but when once there
the military genius refused to
answer any questions. When this
was reported to the court, Judge
Gordon directed the sheriff to
bring the soldier before the
court. which that officer lost no
time in doing. The Judge who
is always considerate of every
body did not commit him to
jail for contempt as many would
have done but questioned him in
a kindly and fatherly way as to
his reasons for refusing to give
the court the benefit of any
knowledge he might have of the
matters before the grand jury.
The soldier replied that he was
acting under orders from his.
superior officer, and must obey
him. Judge Gordon then advised
him to get in communication with
that superior officer at once and
notify him that the Court held
the military to be subservient to
the civil authorities and that if
the superior officer still directed
him not to testify the court
would at once secure the arrest
of both the soldier and the su-
perior officer and would see if
they would then continue to re-
fuse to give the court the imfor-
nation desired. After this ad-
monitor the soldier was allowed
to go and the presumption is he
telephoned or sent a wireless to
his adjutant as he soon appeared
More the court and expressed a |
willingness to tell all he knew,
and while his loyalty to his
superior is to be admired, he
leaned from the court that dis
creation is the better part Of |
valor.

HORSE GETS REVENGE BY
TEARING UP DRIVERS HAT,

Bones" a brown horse belonging
to Charles Fear, a baggage express
man, Of Montclair, has in the last few
days taken a number of whips out Of
passing wagons and has broken them
up with his teeth. Fears son drove
"Bones'' up until a week ago, when he
started on his vacation. Bones had
never been struck with a whip, and
was turned over to Charles Smith, an
other driver. The horse had taken a
liking to young Fear, and was DOWN
cast upon finding a strange man driv-
ing him. He showed his displeasure
In many ways and Smith struck him
with the whip.
Since then Bones has taken whips
from many passing wagons and broken
them. Smith. who wears a soft straw
hat, has narrowly escaped many times
in the last two days from having it
taken by Bones" Today, however.
while Smith was loading his wagon
at the Lackawanna depot in Montclair
he dropped his pencil. Bones" saw his
chance, and with a quick move caught
Smiths hat in MS mouth and ripped 1t
apart. Smith has refused to drive
Bones again.

COUNC|LMEN WANT
THEIR NAMES ON
NE MORTAL TABLET
Kearny SOlons Object to Giving
Credit for Town Hall to
Predecessors.

A question as to whether the present
Town Council of Kearny or It's pred
ecessor should be 'immortalized" on
a bronze tablet in the Z new Town
Hall. now nearly ready for occupancy,
or whether a tablet should be dis
pensed with altogether and a stained
glass window. p~ortraying General Phil
kearny, after whom the town is
named, be substituted, was the chief
subject of debate at the session of the
town council last night.
Councilman Hugh Wilkie moved that
the chairman of the buildings and
grounds committee be authorized to
get a suitable tablet bearing the name
of the town officers and install 1t in
the main corridor of the new hall.
Councilman Harry B. Caithness, who
presided In. the absence of Mayor
Louis NJ. Brock. who is in the Adiron-
dacks on his vacation, believed that
the money the tablet would cost could
be used to better advantage, and spoke
of having an estimate and design for
an ornamental window on the staircase
that should enhance the attrHctiveness
of the interior. Councilman Robert
e. Torrance feared that the decorative
window might lessen the light needed
on the staircase, and spoke in favor
of the tablet, even. as he said. though
1t might have on 1t his name.
Mr.. C%aithness contended that IL a
tablet were installed 1t should record
the anne of those officials who were
foremost In the work, even though they
were not now in Office. Councilman
James J.. Nagel held that the credit
should be given to those now In the
town board, who had looked after the
details of the work and during whose
i~ncu1nbency the building would be
brought TO completion. Councilman
James j. McAteer remarked that while
those who initiated the work were enti-
tied to some measure of credit, the
burden of responsibility had fallen upon
the members Of the present board. The
public school children might later pro-
vide a stained glass window. The mo-
ton to get the tablet was finally passed.
