FOR REPEAL OF

SENATOR BROWN, IT is UNDER

it applies to Maury county. The blu

that Is It will not except any territory
from it's operation. In the Patterson
local platform last fall there was q
plank favoring the repeal of the reg

20 far a. 1t affected the seventh and
ninth districts. The bill Of Senator
Brown will, however, 60 further and
have no exceptions. 1t 10 not known
what the attitude Of Representatives
from this county will be on the meas

standing squarely on the existing
election laws, 1t Is hardly probable
that they will, support the measure.
and without their assistance the bill
cannot pass.

FIRE, ENDS IN DEATH
PROMINENT WOMAN OF CENTRAL
KENTUCKY KILLED IN BLAZE
OF HER OWN BED.
DISCOVERED BY her SISTER
Had Used Stone Frequently, and was
often Warned of the Danger. But
Had Disregarded It.-Fire Depart
ment Extinguishes Flames.

LEBANON, KY, Jan. 30.-Mrs. Ma
ry Tate Carlisle. one of the most
prominent women of entral Kentucky,
was burned to a crisp in bed at an ear
ly hour this morning in fire caused
by an overheated footwarmer. 1t was
not until the fire department was sum-
moned and a stream of water directed
on the bed that the body was recover
ed. The home of Mrs. Carlisle is
West Main street and was partly
wrecked.
Warning of her fate was given Mrs.
Carlisle the day before her death.
Yesterday afternoon while indulging
in an afternoon nap, she made use OF
the heating stone, and only the time
ly action of her sister, who awakened
her, saved her from being seriously
burned. She made light of the occur.
renee, despite her sisters pleading
that she discard the footstone.
Mrs. Carlisle had been in poor
health for number Of years past and
recently has been sleeping In a room
which there had been no fire. Fol-
lowing her custom she placed heat
ed rock in her bed last evening before
retiring. About quarter of o'clock
this morning her widowed sister, Mrs.
Louise. Schooling, who lived with her
and who occupied room across the
hall, was awakened by smoke and the
odor of buring clothing which filled
her room. Her first thought was OF
her sister and she ran to her room.
Opening the door she found the
room was a mass of flames. To en-
ter was impossible, and she ran to the
front of the house and frantically
screamed for help. Three neighbors,
J. P. Fiddler, G. U. Bosley and Hugh
Murray, heard her cries and reached
the burning house within few mo-
ments. They, too made an attempt to
enter the room occupied by Mrs. Car
Isle, but each time were driven back
by the intense heat.
