NEW DEPOT A
POSSIBILITY.

1t is currently stated that the G.
and o. is considering a proposition
of building two new depots at Pike
vile. The present one Is WIDELY
inadequate to meet the demand. 1t
e planned to build passenger sta
ton where the present one now
stands, and to erect freight de-
pot upon the public school lot,which
may be purchased for that purpose.
The passenger station, according to
the rumor, will be Of stone. and the
freight depot of brick.
The volume of business of the
G. and o. was immense when our
present station was newly built and
since then 1t has increased a hun
bred per cent. This naturally me-
cessitates enlarged facilities to han
lie It. Pikeville has also grown
wonderfully since that time, and
large and modern business blocks
are being erected all along the COM
Dany's property. and we feel sure
they Will display as much OF the
spirit OF progress as the business
men Of our city.

BROTHERS MAY
RUN FOR CLERK.

Last week the Progressive Ken
fuckian, the official organ of the
progressive party. also representa-
tive of large portion of the demo-
cratic party, bore the announcement
that David H. Hatcher would be a
candidate for the democratic nomi-
nation for the office ofCounty SQUIRT
Clerk, subject to the action of the
general primary election to be held
In August. His brother Lee has not
yet announced, but it is highly prob
able that he will do so within the
next few days, and their races have
been the subject of much political
discussion recently.
These gentlemen come from a fam
ny long noted for their influence
upon politics, and their father,
ferdinand C. Hatcher, was once
elected to this office in the year
1894 In 1898 he ran again for the
same office, and was defeated. He
was one of the most Jealous politi-
clans in all Eastern Kentucky dur
ing the last 40 years of his life.
and he died just before the triumph
OF Gov. McCreary in the buberna-
tional race.
The family occupies a highly re-
spectacle position in our community.
and it is probable that one of the
brothers will be elected as the dem
ocratic standard bearer in this race.

1872 RELICS WANTED
Wisconsin Citizens Who Had Ancea-
tors in Battle of Lake Erie Also Re-
quested to Communicate With
Perry Commission.

The receipt, as a loan, of an ivory
handled walking-stick belonging to Mr..
Eugene Shepard of Madison, Wiscon-
sin, and made from a black walnut
timber out of the flag ship Lawrence"
Of Perry's feet, has suggested to the
Milwaukee committee for the Perry's
Victory Centennial celebration, that
there are probably other authenticated
relics of the War of 1912 owned in the
state, and that 1t might be worth
while to try to assemble them for ex-
hibition.
some relics of the 1872 period, and
the Plymouth Reporter recently an
nounced the possession by. clergy
man Of that city, named Perry, of the
Commodore's sword.
The flagship Lawrence" OF Perry's
feet was exhibited at Philadelphia in
1876 and was carried away piecemeal
by relic-hunters. All sorts of articles
were made out of her planks and tim
bers. 1t would be very interesting to
gather together large number Of
these. The last survivor of the fight,
the brig Niagara" has recently been
raised from her watery grave in Erie
harbor, and is now being reconstructed
for the centennial. The state of Penn
sylvapia proposes, however, that she
shall not be destroyed as her sister
brig, the Lawrence, was.
Any one owning such a relic and
willing to loan it for such purpose
under proper guaranty Of safe return,
Is requested to communicate with Mr..
Fred w. Dickens, Secretary, 709 Ger
mania Building. Milwaukee.
1t has also been suggested that de-
scendants of soldiers and sailors of the
War OF 1872, and especially of officers
and men land boys) who took part in
the Battle of Lake Erie, on either side,
should make themselves known in or
der that opportunity may be given for
gathering of such citizens. Mr..
Dickens, or Mr.. J. McC. Bell, Secretary
Of the Wisconsin Commission, 5O7
Federal Building, Milwaukee, will be
pleased to hear from any such de-
scendants. The Wisconsin chapters Of
nish a nucleus for such gatherings.
Cities holding special celebrations will
make special arrangements for such
gatherings.
Either Mr.. Dickens or Mr. Bell will
be pleased to send to any interested
person copy of the complete official
roster OF Commodore Perry's neet,
some 633 names In all, giving rank and
ship. 1t was the list of the distri-
butees of the prize money awarded by
congress for the Battle of Lake Erie.
The fact that nine citizens of
Wisconsin are known to be descend
ants OF men who served on Perry
ships, led to the idea that there might
be goodly company of others. A re-
cent letter of inquiry to the well
known writer of southern stories,
Thomas Nelson Page of Washington,
D. c., brought the reply that the young
m1dshtpmon, Hugh Nelson Page, listed
In the crew OF the Schooner "Somers."
