REGULATIONS OF BANK
CASHIER ABOUT $4,000
But the Banks Loss is Fully
COvered-Accused Has
Skipped Out.

Paducah, KY, June 30.-While
the expert accountant, John d.
Smith, of this city, will give out no
figures, it has been learned from an
authentic source that the alleged
shortage of w. F. Purdy, Jr., cashier
of the Ballard County Bank, at
Bandana, will be around 100000.
Smith has finished examining the
books and is now preparing his re-
port to be made to Purdy's bonding
companies. Purdy was under $10,-
900 bond each with two surety COM
panies, therefore the banks loss is
fully covered.
What has become of Purdy is a
mystery. AS soon as Smiths report
is filed with the surety companies
a big reward is expected to be Of
fered for Purdy. The cashiers al
legged populations extend back. it is
said, to 1905, and he is alleged to
have taken money from the bank
steadily since that time. He dis
shortly before the inves-
tigation was started and cannot be
located.
With a view Of reorganization, L.
o. Sexton, assistant cashier of the,
bank, and assigns, is in paducah.
Two or three Paducah men ere
stockholders in the bank. Assignee
Sexton stated that the bunk would
be reorganized and opened as soon
as the shortage is settled

MATTER OF THE GREATEST
MOMENT TO KENTUCKIANS

The school census of the State,
just made public, shows that less
than forty per cent. Of the children
in Kentucky of school age attend
the public schools. This is a con-
dition of affairs that is quite alarm
ing. Kentucky pays more than one
half of the State revenue for edu-
cation, and we are sure that there
is no more worthy cause for which
this money could be spent, but
when II is shown that people for
whose good this money is appro-
priated do not take advantage of it,
it is high time that those engaged
in the work of higher education
were sitting up and taking notice.
This country needs nothing worse
than education, and the States are
all liberal in their support of the
public schools of the country. Mil
lions of dollars are annually eXpend-
ed for that purpose, but the school
man of the future is the one who
can get the people to take advan-
tage. of their opportunities for high
ed education and see that the chill
dren for whose good this money is
yearly expended, get the good of it.
Higher education means a better
State and nation, and to get this re-
suit the people must be aroused,
and the money spent for education
must bring in a proper return in
the way of more highly educated
and broader minded citizenship

STOLEN GOODS FOUND
UNDER CHURCH PULPIT
Mystery Surrounding a Robbery
Committed Is Years Ago
Partly Cleared.

Simpsonville, KY, June S0.-A
partial solution of the mystery sur
rounding the robbery of the general
store of T. NJ. Lyons G. Co., of this
place, on July 80, 1898, came to
light this morning when a portion
of the stolen goods, consisting of
food and clothing together with
burglar tools. were found concealed
in the pulpit of the simpsonville
Colored Baptist church, which is
being remodeled and painted.
The stolen property. evidently de-
posted in the pulpit by the thieves
for safe keeping, nearly thirteen
years ago, was found by the work
men when they displaced the pulpit
from the rostrum. The presence
of slip of paper. containing a
list OF the articles found in the unu-
sual hiding place. led to the belief
of the authorities that the list was
left with the goods to guarantee
honor among thieves" to insure
an equal division of the booty at
any time that they should be able
to remove 1t. The loot has been re-
turned to the rightful owners.
/ On the night of July 80. 1898,
thieves sawed out panel of the
rear door of the store of T. M. Lyons
& Co. Stock to the value of $3.50
was taken. The combination Of the
safe was successfully worked. but
nothing was obtained from the iron

box as the money had been removed
by the proprietor when he quit BUSH
ness for the day.
Three strangers, white men, were
seen proving about the town on the
day before the robbery, and were
missing the following morning when
the theft was discovered. No trace
of them has since been found. 1t
is believed that they found they
would be unable to make off with all
the loot they took from the store
and placed a portion of it in the pull
pit of the Colored Baptist church, in
tending to return for It later. The
fact that three suspicious characters
were seen the day before was pub
lished in the newspapers with the
report of the robbery. Fear of APP
prehension prevented the burglars
from returning.
To place the clothing and grocer
les in the pulpit box It was necessary
for them to remove the top on which
rested The Bible, and then nail It
back. That the church had been en-
tered and the pulpit tempered with,
was never detected.
What was Found Under the Pulpit.
Two new shirts, eight cans of Bak-
ing powder, two-pound can of roast
ed coffee. twelve boxes of matches,
one pair of new shoes, size No. 9.
two pair of old shoes, three cheese,
one weighing seventeen pounds and
the other eighteen pounds. two
pairs of long-jawed pinchers, three
pairs Of overalls. four pocket knives,

six skeleton keys wrapped in copy

KENTUCKY'S NEXT SENATOR
HON. OLLIE VI. JAMES

Ollie James will be the next Sem
ator from Kentucky, the withdrawal
of Senator Paynter leaving Mr..
James a clear field in the primary
and the certainty of a Democratic
majority in both branches of the
General Assembly insuring his cleo
ton.
Though still young man, he al
ready occupies a recognized place as
factor in national politics. What
ever of success has come to him has
been won through his own merit. A
arge measure of opportunity is be-
fore him, both by reason of his abil-
fly and experience and because of
the virtual certainty that he will be
one of the most Thoroughly equip
ped men in the Upper House of an
Democratic in both
its executive and legislative
branches.
Always a strict party man, Mr..
James loyalty to his convictions and
to his State, his personal integrity
and his capacity for work have been
abundantly proved. Possessed of
these qualities and soon to be grad
uated from the best of all training
schools for senatorial service, the
look ahead for Kentucky's next
Senator is one of large promise
both to himself and to the State
he is to represent.-[Louisville

Among the worst of Kentuckys
needs is a rigid enforcement of her
compulsory educational law. With
the many educational advantages
afforded, parents who will not vol
unfairly send their children to
school, should be impressed with
their duty in a rational yet forcible
way. II is a shame that Kentucky
stands so low in the scale in educa-
tional status. 1t seems hard to
arouse some people to the shame
and disgrace of this showing. Let
parents be aroused, and, If necessa-
ry, let our compulsory laws in this
matter be strictly and impartially
enforced.

1t remains to be seen whether
the Republicans of Ohio and other
counties of Kentucky will endorse
the arbitrary and browbeating
methods employed by one or two OF
their county newspapers to compel
them to support Judge o'Rear.
These papers seem to think that
Judge O'Rear is the only respecta-
BILE candidate of the bunch and that
those who do not support him ought
TO be driven from the party. In
these days politics is a free matter
and voters have a right to support
whomsoever they please.
