HOW 1T REALLY HAPPENED.

The Courier-JoUrnal was the
only one or the four Louisville
dalies to print the exact truth
as TO why tee state primary was
not called OF.
The Times and Post reporters
were probably deceived, though
why they should have been, if
they visited the lobby of the
Louisville hotel Friday and kept
their ears open. nobody who was
there could well understand. AS
for the Herald. its reporter has
abandoned news and gone to
writing editorial exclusively
He knew the facts. but it did
not suit him to print them.
The Times said Judge Allie
Young blocked the game" by
telephoning to Louisville he
would not be candidate for
governor as long as McCreary
was a candidate. This was pos
itively silly, yet the Times re-
peated it the next day. The
Post echoed this groundless sto-
ry. Allie would never have run
for governor even had McCaeary
abandoned the race and he well
knew McCreary would not - for
he was we'll aware there was a
Western Kentucky dark horse
lying in wait for him.
When Sam Spalding. at 8 p.
m. Friday. deserted the conven-
hon crowd, at the Geographic
request of Ben johnson. it was
all off. They thought they had
it fixed 7 to 6 to call off the pri-
mary, but upon losing Spalding,
they had to throw up the sponge.
Young's message, coming in
hours later, had nothing what
ever to do with it. Every man

PEG-LEG ANIMALS.
Story OF Deer and Cows With
Wooden Members.

Nashville. Tenn. March IA -Several
cities or rural communities have
claimed the distinction of having do

legs, but Nashville is the only city
perhaps that ever boosted Of peg

not think a wooden leg was SO much
To boast OF and never really appre-
ciatcd the distinction.
The deer was the property of Col
]. II. Acklen. State Game Warden,
having been raised from fawn
about his home in West End Park.
1t was thoroughly tame and roved
about the vicinity of the Acklen home
entirely Peerless OF man. One of its
| resorts for rowing was Centennial
Park. where it will be recalled by
many visitors to the old Exposition
grounds in recent wears, as a beauti-
ful and graceful animal, that did not

kind In its rowing. however. the deer
one day strayed lar back OF the Ack-
len home and in the course OF its
rambles someone shot it, The deer's
leg was badly shattered by the shot
and it raced to the Acklen home with
the injured member just about dan
cling by the flesh.
Calls Aid of Veterinary.
To save the pets life Col. Acylen
called in the aid OF veterinary, who
amputated the wounded leg much at
ter the fashion that a surgeon takes
off the leg of a man. The wound grad
ually healed. but the aspect of the
famed animal hopping about on three
legs was so pathetic that Col. .Ack-
len decided to experiment, with
wooden leg for the deer. At some
pains and some expense an artificial
leg was made and finally affixed to
the stump. The deer. however, did
not approve. He preferred to hop
about on three legs rather than par
ticipate III such nature taking. Re-
pcatedly efforts were made to accus-
tom the animal to the peg" but it
would never be satisfied until il had
kicked off the artificial member. This
done il would go Looping off about its
business satisfied. Many visitors at
the park will recall how well the deer
got after its leg had healed but few
very few of those who claimed friend
ship with his deership ever knew that
the graceful animal had wooden leg
at home. probably the only artificial
deers leg IN existence.
Deer Gets New Home.
Finally Col Acklen gave the deer
to the prison authorities and it took
UP its residence there, it's wooden
leg being the only baggage that it
carried to its new abode. This was
some time ago. but even in the pres
ence OF the heavy hand of the law and
the constituted authorities the deer
persisted in kicking off his wooden
leg every time an effort there was
made to restore him his natural num-
her OF legs. Another deer, one from
the old Belle Meade herd. also used
to loaf abount the prison grounds.
Now both have Disappeared whether
they have died. been killed or have
emigrated to other parts, Warden
Rice has not been able to figure out.
He rather thinks the 6 peg-leg Deer
has died.

What The Assessors Book
Shows About Crittenden.

One would expect the books to
show the largest increase in dogs,
that is. if one may believe all the
evidence that his ears hear, and
his eyes behold. But the in
crease is only POS, and there are
now but 1878 dogs in the county.
Since the tax is moderate, and
the signs of increase many, we
may expect the books to show it
next perhaps.
We have 1853 sheep, an in
crease of 445 over last year.
These are valued at So. 50 per
head. But for the work of some
of the dogs listed, or not listed,
the number of sheep would have
been swelled to 4943, as their
were damage claims filed for ex-
actly so sheep killed and crippled
during the year. 1t is not sur
prising to see that the sheep
killed were in every case the
best of the flock, and that the
average claim per head was S.. 90.
The Crittenden county dog GER
tainly knows good sheep when
he sees it.
1t is not so easy to account for
the loss of 5665 acres of land,
and 26 town lots. 1t may be
that the surveyors have aban-
doned the old time way of cal
culating and now measure from
hilltop to hilltop. Certain it is,
the assessors books show that We
now have that number less of
acres and town lots than we had
one year ago. The total acreage
is now 2l3, 989, but the average
value has increased 30c, and it is
now valued at $3.50 per acre.
The missing town lots were worth
SIS, 038 and the value of the 1872
remaining is $44S, 657.

Have been in Carter, Boyd and

ing ferriage, is fifteen cents.

There are several churches
here. both North and South,
what a pity that all churches are

This is a mountainous country,
full of coal, gas and some oil.
There is quite a difference in the
talk and ways of the people here
and western Kentucky, but they
are fine, friendly people.
All fuel here is gas the
churches are heated with it too, at
Ashland they use gas to melt pig

Boycott Continues.
In the light of all which there
seems little prospect of the boycott
being raised. Indeed the manage
ment of the Athletic Park may con.
slider themselves lucky if the boycott
be not applied indefinitely to all
events staged in their arena.
Who is conducting the boycott is a
matter of mystery. The outward and
visible signs of it outside of the
empty bleachers at the ball park are
pickets posted outside the enclosure.

yelled out to Japanese storekeeper,

May Not Play Chinese.
There is some doubt as to whether
the game on Wednesday between the
Japanese and Chinese hines will
come off after all, as Chinese mer-
chants are circulating a petition TO
have the game stopped owing to
probable disorder between the oppos-
ing factions.
The Keios are lamenting a lack of
pitchers. Sugase says that he can't
pitch again because the climate has
affected him, and Fukuda claims that
his arm is off color to such an extent
that he can hardly throw the ball.
The reserve pitcher, Tshikawa, will
be requisitioned for the next game.
1t was stated around town this
morning that Nakamura, the chief

by the way, is a notorious gambler.

One of the questions brought out by
the Star last week in connection with
the building of the belt roads on the
various islands by the Territory out
of appropriations from the loan fund,
has already been brought up officially
and in like manner answered by an
opinion from the attorney generals
department.
Maui has answered whether the belt
road commissioner tnat island may
use money from the loan fund in the
purchase of rights of way which may
be necessary in developing the Val
ley Isles road system.
The opinion, just rendered, and
written by A. G. Smith, deputy attor-
ney general, is that it may.
The opinion holds that in spite of
Act 81 giving the counties possession
of the roads, the Territory still owns
such roads as were not specifically
turned over to the counties, or have

not been built by the counties since
the passage of Act 81; and that the
Territory as well as the counties still
mas the sight to acquire property for
such purposes"
The attorney general thinks that it
might be advisable for the counties to
secure the rights of way needed, but
believes that either way will be legal.
He also thinks that only land in fee
should be taken.
