perfect recollection of the scenes

ROBERT FRANKLIN YANTIS
Former Carard County Citizen Died In
San Antonio Texas AT Ripe Old Age
OF "a Years.

The following extract from the San
Antonio Texas Express chronicles the
death in that city of Mr.. Robert Frank
lin Yantis, who was born in Garrard
county and is doubtless remembered by
many of our older citizens. Mr.. Yantis
is survived by one sister, Mrs. S. B.
May of Clinton and one brother Mr..
Wood Yantis of Bloomfield.
Robert Franklin Yantis died at the
home of his son, Jesse Yantis, 1125
Rival Street yesterday afternoon. He
had reached the ripe old age of "a years
and 10 days.
Up to few months ago he was able
to be about and spent his time first
with one and another of his sons.
He was born in Garrard County, Ken
tuckyS May %. 1928. He was married
January 81, 1851, to Martha A. Meyers,
who died February IA, 1856, without
issue.
He later married Susan E. May, JAN
uary 1, 1858. She died at Sutherland
Springs, November 8, 1873, leaving four
sons, all of whom are living. During
the war he took sides with the Union
cause and for two years was captain of

whole company in the Eighth Kentucky
Cavalry under Colonel Shackelford. He

WORK STARTED
Tearing Down The Old School Building
Preparatory To The Erection Of
The Handsome Modern New
One Which Is To Take
Its Place.

Work has started tearing down the
old school structure and Mr. Raymond
has large force of hands engaged in
tearing down the old walls and cleaning
the brick andspremises. This prelimi-
nary work will consume about three
weeks, when the work of excavating
for the foundation will begin. The
work of completing the new building
it ready for occupancy will consume
about seven months from the time the
actual work of building begins, which
will make it about the first of the new
year. This places the trustees up
against proposition which will prove
somewhat puzzling, the securing of
quarters in which to carry on the Fall
term of school until the new building is
ready, and already they have COM
menced to cast about them for suitable
quarters.
The main corridor of the new school
building is to have bronze or marble
tablet to the memory of the late Lewis
Y. Leavell, whose munifcense made
the erection of the building possible
without an additional burden of tax
alton upon the people, and who did so
much for the cause of education in
Lancaster and Garrard county, We
hope at ali early date to give a detail
ed description, with perhaps a picture
of how the building will look when
completed.

After The most tempestuous session
in the history of political conventions,
lasting from Tuesday until Saturday
night, the Republican Convention at
Chicago nominated Taft and Sherman
for the presidency and vice presidency
respectively, and in consequence the
q. o. P, noted since its existence for
its cohesiveness, is torn asunder, and
the rent bids fair to widen rather than
to close up. Followers of Theodore
Roosevelt are sore to tie bone and are
freely giving vent to their expressions
in regard to the alleged "steam roller
methods of the followers of President
Taft, and as one of his followers ex-
pressed it, are prepared to "follow
Teddy till hell freezes over and then
walk out on the ice" In Orchestra
hall, less than mile from the COLISEUM
during the waning hours of the big
convention, representatives from TWEEN
ty two states met and formally nomi-
mated Roosevelt as the candidate of
new party, and he accepted the nomi-
nation at their hands, specifying that
ne would gladly step aside at any time
should it be desirable to nominate some
one else In his stead. The formation
of the new party is yet in its incipiency
this being the initial move; it is intend
to at once call conventions In the var
ious states, and finally a mass conven-
ton, probably early in August, to rati-
fly the action taken in Chicago.
During the Chicago meeting there
was something doing every minute,
there were ordinations and re-crimina-
tons, and too men who hitherto have
been high in the councils of the G. O.P.,
but who now openly avow they will not
support Taft, and are following in the
wake of Roosevelt into a new party.
All this indicates but one thing,
Democratic victory in November. The
old saying is that when thieves fall
out, honest men get their Dues" and
the republicans have called each other
thieves so much and so often that one
is naturally lead to believe that there
is surely something rotten in Denmark.
Never was there such an opportunity
for Democratic victory. If harmony
will just prevail in the Democratic con-
vention now in session in Baltimore,
and they will unanimously agree on
some good man, any one of those be-
fore the convention will do, a splendid
Democratic victory in November is as
sured. The trend of public sentiment
is in favor of Speaker Champ Clark,
and he is undoubtedly a strong-man, an
able man and one who would surely be
able to give splendid accounting of
the Democratic standard at any time,
much less at the present time when
our friend the enemy are suffering
from so much internal dissension.

COL. JACK CHINN
Withdraws From Three Cornered Race
For Congressional Nomination
In Eighth District.

Col Jack Chinn of Mercer county ad-
dressed large crowd at the court
house on Monday afternoon, and in an
hours talk paid his respects in a good
natured manner to the two gentlemen
who were opposing him. He placed
particular stress upon the record of Mr.
Helm, and reiterated the heretofore
made statement that that gentleman
was claiming much credit for laws which
We're passed by his democratic collea-
CUES in congress with the assistance of
the progressive republicans in that
body.
At the conclusion of his remarks,
Col. Chinn thanked his many friends in
Garrard county for the unstinted sup
port which had been promised him, but
said that because of the conditions
which the race had assumed, and owing
to the fact that he was practically a
poor man and not financially able to
prosecute his campaign in the manner
which the exigencies of the occasion
demanded, and because of this inability
he deemed himself as having no chance
to win, he therefore wished to announce
his withdrawal from the race.
Col. Chinn has many warm friends
in Garrard county, many of them of
whom would have supported him to the
last ditch; he has assisted in MANY
warm democratic battles, and been
IN at many a democratic victory,
and many were the regrets expressed
that the genial Colonel had deemed it
best to withdraw. Neither Judge Sui
livan or Mr. Helm were in town Mouday

daughters. Mrs. Joseph Nevius and
Mrs. Maurice Dudley, both of whom
were at his bedside when the end came.
He is also survived by one sister, Mrs.
Stanley, who lives in the western part
of the state. Mr.. Hill was a nephew
of the late DIR. o. P. Hill, their fathers
were brothers.
Garrard county never knew a more
uprightcitizen or popular gentleman than
Jim" Hill as he was affectionately
known to all. A man of the strictest
integrity, he held the esteem and re-
spect of all classes, with keen sense
of humor, quick witted and good con-
versationalist, he readily made himself
at home in any assemblage. Mr.. Hill
served with distinction as a member of
the City Council, and was ever ready to
advocate any measure that tended to
the improvement of the city. He was
forced by i'll health to retire from this
position. He had long been a member
of the Christian church.
