No Extra Session Says Governor

The secret of the conference be-
tween the Governor and other state
officials held at the Governors Office
in Frankfort last week has been well
kept, for no one on the outside has
yet learned just what was discussed or
what was proposed it anything. The
supposition is that inasmuch as the
Governor was asked to hold the confer
ence the railroad representatives
wanted the Governor to take some ac-
tion. Of course it is not known what
this proposed action was but as the
Governor is powerless in the matter
except to call an extra session of the
Legislature many believe the railroads
want the Governor to call the Legisla-
ture together to pass a law fixing q
basis or method of assessing the fran
chlse value of the corporations espe.
cially the railroads.

Women On the Farm.

One of the high officials of the Agri-
cultural Department at Washington
dpelores the fact that "the women of
the farmers family are neither able
nor willing to repeat the manual labor
performances of their grandmothers
on the farm"
Doubtless this is true but there is
no reason why it should be greatly de-
plored. There is progress on the farm
as elsewhere. Labor saving machin-
cry and improvements of various kinds
have made things easier for the farm
er, and why should rural life not be
easier for the farmers wife and
daughters. Conditions on the farm
are greatly different from what they
were forty years ago. Household
work in those days represented almost
endless drudgery, with few of the
things which we now known as modern
conveniences. Many of the grand
mothers on the farm" literally were
"hewers of wood and drawers of wat
er." Not only did they draw the wat
er but some of them actually carried it
for long distances from springs or
wells inconveniently located for house
hold uses.
1t is not worth while to dwell upon
the bad and harsh conditions of FORM
er days, the isolation. the toll, the
hardships, the privations many in
stances the hopelessness-of the life
struggle in rural regions in the past.
No one should desire a recurrence of
such conditions. No one should de-
pIore the fact that the farm women of
Today are living under an improved
order of things, and:largely, rhave been
emancipated from the bondage which
fell to the lot of the grandmothers.
1t is well to remember that life on
the farm is no ceaseIess round of gay
ETY. at any time or under any environ
ment. Probably most of the farmers
wives are doing quite as much work
nowadays asc ould reasonably be ex
pected of them. but they are living in
a different era from that ia which the
grandmothers lived and toiled. The
fact that they are getting by with
less manual labor is to be rejMced in
rather than to be lamented.

One OF. the most important engage
ments announced for long time hence
by the management of the Lexington
Opera House is that of the Aborn Eng
lish Grand Opera Company, which
comes to Lexington November 20 and
80, with matinee the 30th. This is the
largest organization in the world CIV
ing grand opera in English. The op-
eras of their repertoire are all staged
with elaborate scenery and costumes,
and grand opera notables in the lead
Ing roles. The Aborn Company, like
all important grand opera organiza-
tions. maintains a nouble set of artists
as your real grand opera song birds
never sing two performances in sue
cession. The exactions of this grade
of music are too great strain on the
voice for consecutive performances ; so
Messrs. Aborn have alternating prin-
cipals in all of their companies. A
special orchestra of 25 accompanies
this organization. The operas select
ed for this engagement are: Friday,
November 20, Lucia di Lamermoori
Saturday matinee, 80, Madame Butter
yf Saturday night, Lohengrin.
The sale of seats will open Wednes-
day, November 27. The prices will
range from fifty cents to two dollars.

Shop Early,

Although there are 81 shopping days
from now until Christmas holiday buy
ers should take advantage of the early
season to do their shopping. There
are many great advantages in this, not
only for the Christmas buyers but to
those who spend the long days in the
shops and stores behind the counters.
In all the larger cities throughout
the United States early shopping will
be adv ocated and already the press is
urging early buying. AMI as early be-
fore the Christmas holidays as is pos
sible. f
While Paris is only a small center
for Christmas trade yet there is MOI e
business transacted here than in any
other town in Central Keutucy of it's
size. The stores will be crowded to
overfiowing the week preceding Christ
mas and to avoid the rush that is GER
ain to come shoppers should begin now
to purchase their Christmas goods.
. The stores throughout the city will
be compelled to employ additional help
during the holidays and the all day
task of the clerks rushing from one
customer to another during the final
rush is wearing on the nerves, espe-
cially the female employees who should
be entitled to no small degree of con-
sideration from the buying public.
Another advantage is the condition
OF the stocks of the stores at the early
season. A customer who takes advan-
tage of the early dates will have an
unlimited stock to select from while if
buying is put off until the last day the
stock will be depleted and only linn
tied line will be lift to select from.
One thing We wish to call the atten-
tion of the locai buyers to is the pur-
chase OF their Christmas goods at

THEATRICAL.
"A THOROUGHBRED TRAMP. I"

"a Thoroughbred Tramp" which
will be the attraction at the Paris
Grand on November 20 is powerful
comedy drama telling beautiful story
combining humor, pathos, heart inter-
est and thrilling realism. There is
strong vein of comedy a laughable
nature that more than pleases.
The story, it is said. is written
around incidents of celebrated case
OF New York life, we'll written and
not unreal or STACEY. 1t is Cne of the
best comedy dramas of today written
by playwright VINO has given the public
some of the very best dramas of recent
years. "a Thoroughbred Tramp" will
be presented by a competent company
with the eminent emotional actress,
Miss Josephine Wowsey. in the leading
feminine role, and supported by such
people as Louise Wrer, of "JekylI and
Hyde" fame, Hal Williams, Frank
Carman and others in the cast.
The quiet home is a fitting atmos
phere. One feels at home by the fire
side with the devoted young husband
and wife: shudders at the entrance of
the villain whose only purpose is to
destroy the reputation of the hubsand
in order to get possession of anOther's
wife. Ore cannot help but admire the
fidelity of the little waif to the sorrow
ing wife and glory in the unfailing en-
ergy of "A Thoroughbred Tramp"
who finally runs the evildoers to the
end of their rope and right triumphs
over might.

mand that the work Is now being CIV

BIRMINGHAM, July 25.-Tommy
Atkins Is slated to do the hurting for
the Crackers in the opening game
against the Barons here this afternoon.
Tommy pitched a corking good game
against the Pelicans last week, and
Acting Manager Alperman is confident
that he will repeat today.
Yesterdays victory over the Bill
kens has put heap of confidence in
the Atlanta bunch and they sure are

that nothing will stop EN- now from
getting into the first division
The Atlanta team won the final game

the latter a collegian the Billikens have
just secured.
The Crackers were to the bad up to
the fifth inning. when hits, including
homers by Alperman and McElveen,
gave them six runs, which cinched the
game.

By Percy H. Whiting.


TT HE Crackers have, in their
old age, developed a wallop.
Maybe It's only a convulsive
switch or On aggravated death
wriggle, but 1t did the business for
Col. Johnny Dobbs' ball club yes
terday afternoon.
In about 80 per cent of the games
this season if the Crackers got off
10 a bad start they never saw day
light again. II they ever got into
extra innings they always lost
They did not have as much come
back to them as Jim Jeffries' little
toe.
In yesterdays game-it may have
been due to the change in manage
ment or it may have been due TO
the weather-the Crackers made a
wretched get away-and then won
the game. Tho start was as de-
pressing as a dirge The Billikens
got to Brady and the Cracker in
field threw a At. and altogether it
looked like a repetition of the old,
old story.
Whether Whitley" got the team
together or whether they Just came
to life themselves history does not
necord, but it does mention that 1t
was Manager Charles A. Alperman
who drove out the home run. with
two on bases, that turned the tide.
IF the Crackers have developed a
little recuperative power, a lit
tie of the old ome-back stuff and
a wallop they will yet run one
two-three in the Southern league
race. It's good race yet Only
$50 points separate the leaders from
the tail -enders-aud the Crackers
aren't the tail -enders today OF
course the Atlanta team is 16 fun
games out Of the league leadership.
But it is only six games out of the

II Alperman can keep the Crackers

there may be some interest in his
history Pat was born in Spring
