MADE MERRY.
Many Applications Recei~-
ed by knights OF ST.
John.

There was merry-making and a
general good time at the reunion OF
the knights of ST. John last
Wednesday night under the auspices
OF st. Michaeps Commandery 1903 at
st. Peters Hall. Alderman Fred
Leezer presided and welcomed the
clergy, Col. Henry Felhoelter, Col
Joe Breen and staff and the visitors.
rhe hall was we'll filled and each
speaker was frequently applauded.
The first introduced was Rev. Father
Jerome Preisser, Chaplain OF Com
mandery 103, who said the Knights
OF st. John bring blessings to man
and the community where they are
organized. He also told Of the as

Father Conrad delivered a short
address In German, and was followed
by Attorney Joseph conkling, who
spoke at length on the benefits OF

amusing film in his moving picture
show and entitled "The Artful
Dodger."
BY the way, the Evening Post has
been putting up a pitiful plea for
campaign funds for O'Rear on the
ground that the Republican cam
paign treasury is empty, and right
on the heels of their plea comes the
announcement that they are running
three special trains with moving
pictures through the Eleventh dis
trict, which will cost no less than
100000. There's a niger in the
woodpile somewhere.
The Louisville Republicans are
hopelessly split. They first refused
to nominate a ticket for the General
Council, and when a crowd of the
dark lantern workers of the party
here put up a ticket then the few
men who control the Republican
c, unity Committee got together and
named full ticket to head off the
Junior Order boys. Many of those
thus named never were consulted,
and with the exception probably Of
]. Duff Reed and one or two others
the Democrats will have no opposi-
ton. After the courts decided
against the Junior Order ticket run

any other device. where they could
not have the negro vote to boost
their game. AS a forecast of the
vote In the coming State race 1t is
only necessary to review the vote OF
Louisville and Jefferson county,
which four years ago gave Wilson
5000 majority over Hager, and this
year 1t Is even conceded by the Re
publicans to give Gov. McCreary and
the Democratic ticket majority OF
not less than 5000.
Chairman Frank McGrath, OF the
local Democratic Committee, and his
associates have been making a big
preparation for the speaking OF Gov.
Judson Harmon, OF Ohio, who will
address the voters of this district
at the Seelbach Roof Garden this
evening, when a large crowd is ex-
pected to hear him discuss the Is
sues OF the day.

Sidesteps Question About His
Part In the Gait House
Conference.
Local Republicans Are Fighting
Each Other Daily i'm the
Courts.
GOV. HARMON TO SPEAK TONIGHT

The closing days of the State cam
paign still finds O'Rear and his
campaign speakers working desper-
ately TO answer the hot shots which
Edward j. McDermott has been
pouring into the Republican strong
hold. The Kentucky Irish American
predicted this at the beginning of
the campaign, and now it is a daily
occurrence OF the Republican speak
ers and their organs trying to Offset
Mr.. McDermott's remarks, he having
more than made good as a campaign
speaker. In this fight he is meeting
the voters all over the State and by
his earnestness and eloquence has
convinced them that his cause is
just, and that the future hope of
Kentucky rests in the success OF
Democracy. Mr.. McDermott will
make a presiding officer in the Sem
ate of whom the whole State will
be proud. Have you noticed that
Judge O'Rear is the only candidate
for office that can be believed? Ev-
cry statement made about him Is
false, every critic is "liar," every
proof OF insincerity is manufactured,
the Gait House meeting was never
held, yet ne refuses TO join with
GOV. McCreary in requesting Judge
Humphrey TO tell of O'Rear's part
in that conference, which finally re-
suited In the bringing OF armed
mountaineers 10 Frankfort and the
killing OF Gov. Goebel. He also
made eyasiye answers to the charge

CARRY MAIL BY
FAST FREIGHT
POSTMASTER GENERAL HITCH
COCK BEGINS EXPERIMENT
WITH SECOND CLASS TO
REDUCE EXPENSES.

Washington, u. c.. Sept. 1.-The
Post Office department today begins
an experiment which is regarded as one
of the most important steps yet taken
by Postmaster General Hitchcock i'm
his plans to reduce the expense Of the
service and thereby pave the way. so
it is believed, for the ultimate adop-
tion of penny postage.
The plan inaugurated today pro-
vides that the greater part of the sec
ond class mail matter consisting of
magazines and periodicals, heretofore
transported i'm railway mail cars, will
be carried by fast freight. The pub
fishers are TO be permitted to print on
the wrapper of each copy or bundle
of their publications, as "A part of the
address. instructions as to the date on
which delivery is to be made. In ac-
cordance with this arrangement post
masters have been directed To carry
cut the instructions with respect To the
delivery of fast mail freight. Mr..
Hitchcock believes that the new sys-
tenn will be found satisfactory TO the
publishers and the public alike, while
the expense To the government will be
far less than heretofore.

NEARLY SINKS BATTLESHIP.
Big Dreadnought Delaware Fires Close
to the Ohio.

Washington, d. G., Sept. 1.-The
great dreadnought Delaware, the pride
of the navy, hit the target battleship
Texas twice at distance of ten miles
and came near sinking the Ohio which
was stationed nearby.
The Delaware for some time had
been shooting 12-inch shells at the
Texas, at range of 1900 yards. She
got the range accurately after several
shots and placed two shells i'm the hull
of the Texas. Other battleships and
cruisers had taken position at what
was considered safe distance.
All of a sudden the after turret of
the Delaware opened fire and it was
supposed she intended to annihilate the
Texas with two more twelve-inch
shells. The first shell from the Della
ware whistled close to the Ohio. nine
miles away and gave the jackies and
sailors the cold shivers. Signals to
cease firing were run up but before
they were observed by the Delaware
another twelve-lnch shell hit the water
so cloes to the Ohio that IL splashed
the water on the decks of that bat
tleship.

TO HANG TRUNK MURDERER.
esse p. Webb of Portland to be Exc
euted Tomorrow.

Portland, ore, Sept. 1.-Jesse p.
Webb. the principal i'm the so-called
trunk" murder which stirred this sec
'xecuted at the State prison early in
he coming week unless his sentence is
ommuted by Governor West. Webb
as had two trials and an appeal for a
bird trial was denied by the supreme
ouTt. Governor West, after a careful
eview of the case, announced that he
aw nothing that would warrant his
Interference with the sentence of the
'ourt. Consequently. there is believed
be little or no chance for Webb to
scape the gallows.
Webb was convicted of killing Will
lam A. johnson in the New Grand
'entral Hotel i'm this city a year ago
asst June. The victim was shot and
> hen beaten to death with a blackjack
md his body stuffed into "a trunk. The
rom Spokane day or two before the
rhine, in company with Webb and "a
Mrs. Carrie Kersh, who subsequently
vas proved To be Webb's paramour.
johnson had about $1,000 I'm his pos
session and II was to obtain this that
he murder was committed. The evi-
lence at the trial showed that after
lilling Johnson the body was stuffed
nto a trunk. the murderer being as
listed by the Kersh woman. The
runk was sent from the hotel to the
'ailroad station for shipment to an in
erior point. At the station one of the
Employees noticed n pool of blood which
had tricklcd from the trunk and this
led To the discovery of the crime.
on the same day webb and Mrs
I<crsh were taken into custody as they
were returning from an automobile
trip to n suburban resort. on Webb's
person were found two watches. one OF
which was identified as Johnsons and
two handkerchiefs, both bloodstained.
on Mrs. Kersh was found most of the
money taken from the victim. The
subsequent trials showed that John
sons death was planned by the couple
with the object OF robbery, Mrs. Kersh
being the lure. The trial of Webb re-
suited in his conviction of murder in
the first degree. The woman was
found guilty Of manslaughter and SEN
fenced to fifteen years in the peniten-
tiary.
