HosTILITlEs BEGIN.
Montenegrin Forces httack Turks
After Declaring War.

Constantinople- Montenegrin forces
early Wednesday morning attacked
Berana, which at noon was surround
ed. Skirmishes also are reported on
the Servian frontier and with Greek
bands in the neighborhood Of Diskata.
An exchange Of shots occurred near
Djumabala, on the Bulgarian frontier.
An official dispatch from the Mon
tenegrin frontier says Montenegrins
on Monday attacked the block house at
Kalva, but were repulsed with heavy
loss. Fifteen Turks were wounded.
The same day large detachment of
the Montenegrin army crossed the
frontier and attacked Brana. It also
is reported that the Turks surrounded
and annihilated body ct Montenegro
soldiers.
Patris- A general conflict in the
Balkans is expected by officials here.
Montenegro has declared war, and
this is regarded merely as the begin
ming. It is believed that the other
units in the Balkan coalition will fol-
low suit as soon as the mobilization Of
armies is complete. There is only a
faint hope that the representations of
the powers will avert general hostili-
ties.
Montenegro's move is considered in
Paris to be part Of a prearranged plan.
1t is asserted that Greece was first
elected by the Balkan Federation to
force the issue and inaugurate the
war. This easily could have been
done by Greece's seating in the Greek |
parliament the deputies from Crete,
which was certain to prove casus
belli to Turkey. Greece, however.
declined to accept responsibility for
starting the flame.
Montenegro then was picked. She !
had long standing quarrel with Tur-
key over the boundary question, and
Turkeys refusal to grant satisfaction
was seized upon as justification for
Montenegro's resort to arms.
1t is not doubted that though cool
sr heads in Bulgaria have been
against the war from the start, pop
liar excitement is at such a high
bitch that that country will be driven
% war to satisfy public opinion.

And Vigorous Protest Raised
When He Resigned His
Position
AS AGENT OF THE L. & N.
Resignation Not Accepted and
Mr.. HOOe Still Is
Here.

Mr.. John c. Hove, the efficient
local agent of the L & N. railroad,
rendered his resignation several days
ago and when it became known petit
tions were at once started calling
upon him to remain and calling up
on the railroad company to allow
him to remain here. 1t is said Mr..
Hooe's resignation was rendered be-
cause the road was planning to trans
fer him to some other point. On
Wednesday Mr.. Brasher, the chief
clerk at Henderson, was sent here
and the auditor was present to
check in the new agent, when tele-
gram was received telling Mr..
Brasher to return to Henderson and
for the present Mr.. Hooe remains in
charge of the Office. Just what will
be the final outcome of the matter
remains to be seen, but there is an
almost universal desire that Mr..
Hooe continue to fill the position he
has held for a number of years.

in vain. He gradually grew weaker
until the end.
Mr.. Watson was 20 years old and

An Unparalleled Display Of Fall
Millinery and Ladies'
Garments.
A HINT AT THE NEW STYLES.
Fair Sex Kept All the SaIeSladieS
Busy Showing and Sell
ing Goods.

Thursday and Friday of this week
were ladies days with the milliners
and ready-to-wear merchants. The
streets were thronged with the fair
sex as they passed from store to
store. A few of them were wearing
new hats that they had previously
selected, and were anxious to find
out whether they had in their pre-
opening day purchases really caught
up with the latest styles in headwear.
There were many out-of-town ladies'
who came in on the trains and in We
hicles to study what became them
most, finally arriving at the conclu-
sion, and very wisely, that it is best
to trust to the taste of the milliner.
The salespeople were kept quite
busy during both days and sales
both in millinery and ready-to-wear
suits were perhaps larger than upon
any other like occasion.
In millinery this fall there are
really no great changes. For street
wear the large hats will be much
worn, probably as much as last fall,
but the rule of fashion has cut them
down somewhat. Hats for other
occasions are much smaller. In New
York this season feathers are still
much affected, and both in high art
garments and headwear brown is
said to be the predominating color.
1t may be that brown is less easily
soiled and also that it harmonizes
well and at the same time it can be
worn by either blondes or brunettes.
Pushes in many shades are also pop
ular this year. Fashionable New
York ladies still affect suits, hats,
hose, shoes and gloves of the same
shade. Of course this lightens hub.
by's" purse. but Dame Fashion cares
nothing about that.
The three leading milliners of the
city. j. H. Anderson & Co., Frankel's
Busy store and Miss Fannie Rogers,
had on display Thursday and Friday
the prettiest line of ladies' hats that
they have ever brought here. Miss
Rogers deals exclusively in millinery,
but the two former are among the
largest dealers in ladies' ready-to-
wear suits and they have eclipsed
themselves in placing before their
lady patrons the most elaborate as
we'll as palmer garments that catch
the fancy of the gentler sex. Now

CHRISTIAN COUNTY'S TURN.
Former Michigan Leader Being
Urged To Permit The Use
Of His Name.

Christian county will probably pre-
sent a distinguished candidate for
the S ate Senate next year in the
person Of Hon. John Franklin Bible.
Mr.. Bible is being urged by many
friends to permit the use of his name
as Christian county's candidate.
which would of course mean the
domination as it is this county's turn
touname the Senator. While Sena-
tor Salmon is not averse to renom-
nation. it is understood that he will
concede to Christian the right to
name the candidate,
Mr.. Bible came to Kentucky two
years ago from Ionia. Mich, where
he had been Mayor and also nomi-
nee for Lieutenant Governor. and a
recognized leader Of the Democratic
party in Michigan. He is q native
Georgian and his wife. who died a
few years ago, was daughter of
Me late Mr.. John II. Bell, ST., of
this city. AS manager of the Mogul
Wagon Co. he has taken rank with
Hopkinsville's foremost business
men, and is President Of the Ken
lucky Manufacturers Association
organized last spring.
Mr.. Bible, bears a striking resem-
blance to Vim. j. Bryan before Mr..
Bryan took on SO much flesh. He is
an orator of wide reputation. His
memorial address at The annual TER
Vice of the Elks las year was gem
of eloquence. pathos and eulogy.
He is equipped by experience and q
close study of public questions to
become at once leader in the SEN
ate. His nomination and election
would reflect credit on the Demo-
cratic party not only of Christian
county but Of the State.

GROUND BEING BROKEN
FOR EDISON WORKS.

Work was commenced this week ait
Silver Plume at breaking the ground
for the Edison works. 1t Is under
stood that the Edison rolls, the most
powerful of amy i'm use, will be in
stalled for grinding ores. They con-
sist of a set of three rolls, the larg-
est of which Will take in chunks of
rock weighing upward of a ton, and
the finishing rolls turn out a 200
mesh product. The pulverized ore is
conveyed to tanks where the separ-
alton of ore from rock is effected,
the water used for this purpose never
escaping except by evaporation, so
that nothing is carried off by the
escape of water 1t is claimed that
complete separation of ore from
rock can be effected, and 1t Is pos
sible that electricity is used in the
process in some form.
1t is gratifying to learn that the
men back Of this enterprise, who are
said to be a number of STANDARD Oil
magnates, have been convinced of
the feasibility OF the Edison process,
and that no expense will be spared
in proving 1T out. II successful, it
will be of inestimable value to the
mining world.-Georgetowm Courier.

Over mountain, plain and sea,

With never a thought of me:
In the bright sunlight she poses and
plays
To the picture MANS machine,
Hut the film that's made brings her
back again
To me on the milk-white screen.
See! She's coming now on her flying
steed
And dressed in the western style :
You can see her face, as she waves
her hat,
And catch her winning smile.
Now! She draws her "gun"-in the
proper way
And shoots from the pony's back
See! The Villains dead-from his
horse he fell
OH, she is a Cracker Jack"
have seen her die on an iron bed,
And pass into Angel-Land,
Then RETURN to life the following
night
In a costume that was grand:
She was once the queen of royal
court,
And she looked the part she took;
And another time, as a pious nun,
She read from a big prayer+book.
have seen her dive from a ledge of
rocks,
When the sea was running wild,
And swim like fish, through the
surging surf,
To save the life of child.
Oh, she is STAR" and does daisy
stunts"
In the moving-picture plays;
And she's won my heart, with her
brave bold deeds
And her sweet and gentle ways.
Now this girl l love, have seen her
talk,
But I've never heard her speak;
It's q silent love that has come to
me
A kind that Is safe to seek
There are other maids, but / pass
them by,
For their talk puts me awhirl;
And heed them not. for my heart is
