when she started to services Sunday
morning that she would pay particular
attention to the visitors in the congre-
cation. She could hardly wait until
the services we're over to speak to two
good looking young men near her and
invite them to come back next Sunday
When she shook hands with the men
and extended them gracious Invita-

then one said, "We come every Sunday,

Some of the states are taking the
matter seriously Of taxing the bachel-
ors. We are not so interested in COM
polling the strangely attractive old
chaps to pay taxes for their single
blessedness because we're it so, they
would have less money to buy candy
and flowers for the girls. There would
not be half so many old bachelors If
many of them would get up new line
of talk. The majority have certain
stories, jokes and experiences that
they relate every time girl is with
them. The bachelor does himself a
great injustice by telling his same old
fancies over time and again.
Few girls can resist flirting some
times just little-but it is a shame the
way the Cloverport young ladies firt.
The other afternoon at the station a
splendid looking man in the parlor car
of an east bound train smiled and smiled
at one of our own girls. She didn't
look at him directly until the wheels
began to turn towards Louisville, then
she faced the man deliberately and
turned up her nose at him.

RACE FEELING IS
 CAUSE OF RIOT

Vienna, September 16.-tSpecial) )-The bitter race feeling existing between Hun garians and Tyroless resulted in fatal riot at an outdoor dance at a little inn near Treibach, in the Austrian Tyro, short time ago.
 A number of Hungarian workmen were dancing in the evening to music supplied by a gipsy band and. being graceful and good dancers, they had no difficulty in se- curing many pretty partners among tho village maidens. This raised the ire of the Tyrolese men, who not only objected to Hungarian music, but also to seeing their sweethearts in the arms of strangers.
 Eventually one of the relatives threw coin to the leader of the band, ordering him to play Tyrolean music or none at all. This incident sufficed to act as the signal for a race riot, for in a moment knives were drawn, revolvers fired, tables and chairs overturned and glasses thrown by men and women alike Before the police could interfere two of the company were killed and many seriously injured.

TERRIBLE STORY OF
 TARTAR VENGEANCE

St. Petersburg, September 16.-(Special) A terrible story of Tartar vengeance comes from the oil city of Baku, Zegnall Tagnieuw. the king of the Black City," is suspected of having committed a brutal murder.
 Tangnieuw is looked upon as the most influential personality in Ballu for he IS the richest man in the Caucasus. Al though an uneducated Tartar who aan- not even write his name, he is, thanks to his energy talent and extraordinary good luck the possessor of a fortune which can be counted by hundreds of millions Of roubles.
 Fifteen years ago he arrived in Baku as an adverturer without means. Today he possesses the largest oil fields, numer- ous ships, a whole district of the town infact, everything that can be had for1 money in Russia. As Mohammedan he has great influence among his co-religion- ists. The Russian government is acquaint- ed with this fact, and seldom does the viceroy of the Caucasus visit Baku with out calling on the Petroleum King.
 Yagnieuw had steward, a Tartar by birth, who was educated in Germany as an engineer whom he trusted blindly. One day, however, he came to the conclusion that the engineer was more attentive to his wife than to himself Tagnieuw watched both narrowly, and finally or dered the engineer to call upon him.
 Suspectng nothing the engineer arrived. Scarcely had he entered the door when the Petroleum King and his relatives fell upon him. stripped him and bound him to a bench. The engineer was kicked and whipped until he lost consciousness. When he recovered the torture was renewed Then Tagnieuw called his own wife and the wife of his victim so that they should l.... Aat.. fI.,t streaming from her husband the engin- eer's wife lost her reason Two days later the engineer died.
 All Baku is discussing the affair. but the authorities pretend that they know noth- ing about it. It is suggested that the government is afraid to bring the chief of the Russian Mohammedans to justice. The relatives of the engineer have written tc the minister of justice about the matter, without, however, receiving reply.

 1t is proba Dle that after the forma- tion of the new cabinet the parlia- mentary sittings will be adjourned. On reassembling 1t Is certain that there will be heated debates. One of the chief measures of the new government will be the redrafting of the bill of separate church and state on less drastic lines. It was the drastic clauses of the old bill which obtained popularity for Senator Costa among ex- tremo republicans. The general opin- ion is that the new government will not be able to resist the fierce attack of the Costa party, in which case the dissolution of the chamber will be in evitable.
