Pine Knot Injunction Dis
solved

In the injunction suit to prevent
the county officers of McCreary
County from moving their Offices
from Pine Knot to Whitley City
which was tried here last Tuesday
the temporary injunction issued by
the Circnit Clerk OF McCreary
County was dissolved and these Of
6cers will hereafter be located at
Whitley City, which location vas
chosen at the recent election by the
voters of the new Coxnty.
Judge Jas. D. Black was presiding
at this trial as Special Judge and
was accepted by those suing for the
injunction, Judge Sampson having
been disqualified. so it seems that a
considerable amount of these re-
ports which we see OCCASIONALLY in
the dailv parers written up from
Pine Knou is more noise, issued for
political effect than true facts

Killing at COrbih

While engaged in a crap game
Just north of the bridge at CorLin
last Saturday NJ. Beasley, a sports
man of Lexington, was shot and
killed. Several men had been ga mb-
ling there and the trouble arose
over the game, and it is reported
that Beasley and other men were
shooting at one another. Another
report says that Beasley had been
shooting at one of the men and hat
another crept behind a fence or
stone NALL and shot him from be.
hind or from the side where he
could not be seen. Arrests were
made but we were unable to learn
the particular persons implicated.
The place where this murder took
I.laee is a we'll known spot and
many killings have taken place in
the immediate viinity which is
known as "Helrs half acre." which
is Just beyond the bridge in Laurel
County. 1t is no uncommon thing

why this has not been broken up
long ago is strange and hard to I'M

342 RARE TURKOISES
IN AN OLD GUN BARREL.
Muskct Purchased i'm Paris Antiquary
Shop Proves to Contain Rich
Treasure.

Paris.-A wonderful find of tur-
quoises was made a day or two ago
by the purchase of an old Arab mus
ket at an antiquary's shop in Paris.
Thinking how well the musket would
look on the wall of his study, the
amateur collector bought it and plac-
ed 1t on table to be wrapped up.
An old cork plugged the end of the
barrel, and the purchaser idly pulled
it out. A shower of precious stones
poured from the rusty muzzle, 243
turquoises of splendid color being
picked up.
The owner of the musket prepared
to pocket the treasure, but the anti
quarry raised violent protests, and a
magistrate has been asked to decide
whose the jewels are.
A small fortune in gold coins has
just been discovered in the trunk of
a decayed old oak tree at Moisson,
near Paris. The woodman who fell
ed the oak was astonished to find in
it a rusty tin box containing gold
coins amounting to $500. On them
were traces of human blood.

UNSUITABLE DECKS

English Ship Architect Says it is

Loss of Life

London.-"Naval architects are al
ready busying themselves with the
problem of designing a deck which
can be slipped from a sinking liner"
John Harvard B'les. vice president
Of the Institution of Naval Architec-
ture. He continued:
THE problem is chiefly that of the
expense of the apparatus. which might
be used only once in fifty years.
IAN unsinkable ship is a fiction OF
transatlantic sailors.
"All things considered, even in case
of a collision with an iceberg, a ves-
sci of the size of the Titanic ought
to be safer than a smaller liner.
"A head-on collision would leave
more compartments undamaged, and
a 'sideswipe' could be better re-
sisted
1T is possible to carry sufficient
boats to save every soul on board a
liner.
II cannot account for the failure
of the wireless apparatus on the I'll
tsnic almost two hours before its
laundering, as a supplementary dy-
ramo was carried fifteen feet above
the water line"
Figures from the highest official
source. supplied by one of the most
prominent British naval designers,
show that $50 lives was the greatest
number that possibly could be saved
with the apparatus carried on the
Titanic.
That vessels facilities were just
within the board of trade regulations
which specified that a ship must be
equipped with wooden or metal boats
sufficient to carry $50 passengers
from a 1O,0O0-tOn vessel.
Collapsible boats RATS and other
apparatus not carried on davits must
be supplied to accommodate three
fourths as many, making 962, the to-
tai it would be possible to save under
the Board Of Trade rules.
The plans show that the Titanic
carried lifeboats to accommodate $50
persons.
