Bad rIan to Die.

James Ellis, convicted of the
murder of Magistrate G. j. Beat
ty, of Burnside, will pay the
penalty for his crime in the cleo
trio chair at Eddyville Novem-
Der %. In signing the death war;
rant Governor McCreary made
the statement that more men
and women had expressed them
selves IN favor of execution in
this case than any other that had
come before him as Governor.
Ellis, who had been a Deputy
Sheriff, conducted a soft drink
stand just outside Burnside,
where he was charged with sell
ling liquor. The town authori-
ties had no jurisdiction, so Mag
istrate Beatty moved from Green
wood to Burnside and issued war;
rants for Ellis arrest.
Fearing a personal encounter
if he sent his constable, W. f.
Heath, Beatty deputized a man
named Helton to serve the war
rant. The evidence at the trial
was to the effect that Helton
found Ellis and both got drunk.
They entered Beatty's office
inst as Beatty was making out
warrants for the arrest of both of
them for disorderly conduct, and
Constable Heath was waiting to
serve the variants. As soon as
the two entered shooting began,
and when the smoke cleared a.
way Beatty was dead among his
unfinished warrants and Heath
was on the floor breathing his
last. Neither had drawn a gun.
Ellis and Helton were seen to run
out, carrying revolvers. Both
were convicted.

Kentucky Leads In Jersey Cattle.

Statistics show that in the
State of Kentucky there are
more registered Jersey cattle
than in any other State in the
Union. The South Is the natural
and logical dairy section of
America. Transportation and
marketing facilities for milk and
butter are excellent and the man
with small capital can find a
pleasant and profitable business
in running a dairy and building
up a dairy heard. The cost of
milk and butter production in
the South is by natural conditions
much less than in the North and
West, where housing and feeding
during the long winters makes a
heavy cost against the nearly all
the year around grazing of this
section. INLAND Farmer.

one of the most complete in this
country.
The Station has already won a
reputation for work of this sort
not only in this. country, but in
Europe, and those sending sam.
piles can be assured that they
will be tested well and as prompt
y as our facilities will permit.
Samples will be Examined in the
order in which they are received.
To get fair tests it is necessary
that the sample be taken from a
bulk lot after a Borough mixing
of seeds. Samples of red clover,
sapling clover, alsike clover, al
falfa, orchard grass, English blue.
grass and rye grass should con-
tain two ounceseach. Samples
Of Kentucky blue grass, Cana da
blue grass, red bop and timothy
should weigh one ounce each.
The samples should be put in a
stout paper enssA Ne, not In Or

escape. Put your complete ad'
lress, plainly written, on each

Reifsnider Mill Burned.

Early on Wednesday morning last
lightning struck and set fire to the mill of
Samuel d. Relfsnder. about mile east
OF Frederick. The dwelling of Mr. Ref
snider was situated just across the road
from the mill, and it, too, was practically
destroyed. and if rebuilt will begin with
the second story and will have to be re-
built to the top.
Mrs. Reifsnider was in the basement at
her home when the mill was struck. She
said she heard a severe clap Of thunder,
but did not look out of the house for
few minutes. When she did the roof of
the mill was a mass of flames. She
aroused the members of her family.
The Reifsnider mill was over a century
old. 1t was building so by SO feet and
of stone. The mill had capacity of rs
barrels Of -four daily and was run every
day. The mill enjoved large trade. In
about an hour after the fire started it had
burned through to the basement, four
floors having been consumed, SO that
only the stone walls were left standing
The fire companies of Frederick were
sent for, and an automobile engine from
the city went out. 1t managed to extin-
guish the fire in the house. Much Of the
furniture in the dwelling was saved. The
loss will probably be about $4,000. Mr..
Reiisnider carried 81, 800 insurance.

Storm Sweeps Hagerstown

Hagerstown was struck by cyclone
on Wednesday afternoon, July 18th, at
5 O'Clock. Factory buildings and dwell
ings were unroofed, trees uprooted and
hundreds of wires were torn down,
killing three horses belonging to the
fire department that came in contact
with the charged wire, several families
were practically rendered homeless, and
had to be cared for by their neghbors.
The damage to the Dancer Lumber
Factory is exceptionally heavy. The
machines were damaged, and some of
the workmen were seriously injured.
The ram poured down in torrents for an
hour, and the city was in darkness part
of the evening, because the municipal
electric plant and the Hagerstown street
railway power house were shut down,
as it was considered dangerous to turn
on the current while SO many wires were
down and tangled. The whole of Wash
ington county suffered from the heavy
storm and many barns were burned and
live stock killed.
The storm and the rain fall in this
county was also severe, but from the
latest reports not much damage was
done. A large, bank barn south east
of Liberty in the neighborhood Of Harris
vile, was burned with all of its contents
