EIGHT MONTHS IN JAIL
FRED BLOOMS SENTENCE
Was Tried on Indictment For
Burning Dry Goods Store
at MOrganfield.

MOrganfield, KY, Nov. 15.-Fred
Bloom was sentenced to eight
months confinement in the county
Jail, by the verdict of the jury re-
turned into Circuit Court to-day
charged with burning the Green
Giver Department store several
months ago.
The feature of the trial was the
testimony of Ed Hodges, a Davies
county man, who made a confession
some time ago, accusing Bloom OF
setting the store afire. Hodges tes-
titled that he had talked over the
plans for burning the store with
Bloom and that the defendant pre-
pared the materials in his presence
for setting the building on fire.
The prosecution attempted to
prove the ownership of the store
and to show the events leading up
to the opening of the store. 1t then
brought out the ownership OF the
store and finally developed the fact
that Bloom was in Morganfield on
the night of the fire. Hodges was
then put on the stand to tell of
the plans laid for the burning OF
the store.
The defendant placed witnesses
on the stand in an attempt to prove
that Bloom was innocent an dthat
Hodges was the guilty party.
The fire destroyed property val
ued at 100000. The buildings
were occupied by the Green River
Department store, Mason-Dyer Co.,
Young & Conway, Masonic Tenn
Pile, opera house and Baptist church.

HUSBAND ORDERED TO
QUIT WORKING AT ONCE

Chicago. Nov. 15.-Judge New
conner. in the Municipal Court yes
terday, imposed the sentence of in
determlnate idleness on Joseph
Girsch. who had been arrested on
complaint of his wife.
Joseph had a good job, is able
bodied and perfectly able to work,
but all of this disturbs the other
wise happy household, and he must
quit. The court entered the strange
decree after hearing the story of
Mrs. Girsch.
81 can't stand Joe's conduct any
longer" Mrs. Girsch testified.
You'll just have to put him under
bonds to refrain from working"
do you mean that he is over
working HIMSELF" queried the
Judge.
mo; mean work doesn't agree
with him." the woman continued
Hes got to be made to stop It if
there is to be any peace in our
house. Joe's a molder. He's Just
crazy about molding, but when he
gets paid off, he buys liquor and
then comes home and beats me.
I've got plenty of money and can
support both him and myself, but
can't stand it when he works. Just
send him home and keep us out of
the divorce courts"
"All right" said the Judge. ITS
a little unusual, but let the order be
issued"

There Is now in circulation in this
country book written by Rus
sian Anarchist, named Berkman,
just out of prison for cowardly
attempt to assassinate Henry c..
Frick during the Homestead strike
in 1892. This book gloriGes the
bloody deed. What are the Federal
authorities doing in this matter?
Isn't there something else to do be-
sides busting the trusts, smashing
the railroads and tinkering with
the tariff? Isn't the preservation
of American institutions worth
thinking about for few moments?
We believe it is.-[Leslie's Weekly.

As To Advertising.

A merchant of a Western Ken
-uckv town is quoted as saving that
he does not advertise because he
cannot secure sufficient help to
wait on his customers when he ad-
vertises. And when you come to
think about it that is just about as
sensible a reason for not advertis-
ing as any merchant can give. Few
of them, perhaps, would decline to
advertise on such grounds, but, af-
ter all, they couldn't better explain
their nonprogressivenes

ANARCHISTS NOT NEEDED

Anarchy! There is no room for
an anarchist in this country. The
more quickly We awaken to the
danger of the present situation, the
better It will be. A schoolboy in
New Jersey was expelled the other

Stars and Stripes. He said he
would salute none but the red flag.
He was the son OF an Anarchist.

There is more Catarrh in this
section Of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until
the last few years it was supposed
to be incurable. For a great many
years doctors pronounced It a local

les, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven catarrh
to be a constitutional disease and
therefore requires constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manu-
