as we'll as silo connected with it..
Several fences and stables at the
Kentucky Association track were
destroyed. Several barns in this
county were destroyed and
considerable stock killed, one man

I have in my possession a prescrip- ton for nervous debility, lack of vigor and weakened manhood failing memory and lame back brought on by eXCesses, unnatural drains, or the follies of youth, that has cured so many wsrn and nervous men right in their own homes-withOut any addi- tiOnal help or medicine-that I think every man who wishes to regain his manly power and virility, quickly and quietly, should have a copy So l have determined to send a copy of the prescription free of charge, in a plain, ordinary sealed envelope to any man who will write me for it.
 This prescription comes from a physician who has made a special study of men and 1 am convinced it is the surest- acting combination for the cure of deficient manhood and vigor failure ever put together.
 I think I owe it to my fellow man to send them a copy in confidence so that any man anywhere who is weak and discouraged with repeated failures may stop drugging himsel! with harmful patent medicines, se- cure what I believe is the quickest acting restorative, upbuilding, SPOT TOUCHING remedy ever devised, and so cure himself at home quietly and quickly.

Just when Chief of Police A. J. Moore had about made up his mind that he would open the city jail doors to MT and Mrs. F. NJ z, Taylor. detained for a week in re sponse to a request from the Los Angeles police that they be taken into custody, Detective Nick Harris, of Los Angeles wired yesterday that he and his wife, who has been es- pecialIv deputized to escort Mrs. Tay- Ior back. would leave Los Angeles al 3 o'clock, Saturday afternoon and would arrive in this city Sunday morning armed with warrants for the two Unless the TaylorS decide to fight extradition it is likely they will be on their way to Los Angeles this evening.
 There has been some doubt re- gently as to just what charges have been placed against the Taylors. It is generally supposed. and has been stated in the Los Angeles papers. that the charges grow out of the issuing of alleged fictitious checks amounting to several hundred dollars. Now there is a rumor that charges 
 against Taylor If this is found to be true when Detective Harris ar rives. TaylCr says he will strenuous ly fight extraditiOn as he claims he did rot desert his children but saw that they were being properly cared for before leaving Los Angeles.
 Taylor says that he believes he can show that malice is back of the prosecution, for. he states that if this were not true and if there is nothing to be taken into account but the check transactions, he believes that he would have been given an Oppor- tullity to make them good. He says further that with real estate deals pending here and other sources of revenue opening up, he would have been able shortly to have made good any discrepancies.

VIC DOUBLES
 HIS CAPACITY
Hanny's Increasing Busi- ness Demands Greater Space. Lease Signed for Quarters of Long Hardware Company

With the moving of the postoffice into the new quarters that have been prepared in the new federal building within the course of a few weeks will come another couple of moves, these on the part of prominent busi- ness firms in the city. The Long Hardware company, now occupying
 quarters next to Vic Hanny on Cen tral avenue, will move to the present location of the postoffice This was thought at first to possibly leave vacant store on the west side Of Central avenue fifty feet wide and of sufficient size to mahe it splen- did place for a large and p-to-date stock of merchandise This is just what struck several live ones, and the first one to be hit with the notion was the irrepressible Vic.
 The thought was the father to the deed with him. His store as it now stands is too small to accommodate the rapidly growing trade. Here was a chance to expand without moving. The plans for the expansion have been made, and simultaneously with the moving out of the Long Hard
 ware company Vic Hanny will have the place remodelled, the partition taken out and the stock space, floor space and accommodations of his haberdashery doubled The final papers were signed yesterday, Frank Luke. T. w. Smith and Vic Hanny's l names all appearing at the bottom 1 of the instrument

SHAKESPEARE AS A LAWYER.
Judges Often Refer to his Writings in
 Their Opinions.

and professions famillarize themselves with the lines of Shakespeare there is an inclination to claim that the great dramatist was of the same business as they.
 The sailor finds interest in the nau- tical language of the poet and lays down the book with the thought that the author must have been a sailor. The mechanic. reading the plays. reaches scenes so familiar to him that he thinks only a man of his Occupa- tion could have recorded them. The scientist is so astounded at the vast scientific knowledge of the poet that he believes Shakespeare may have been a scientist The physician finds such a storehouse of medical knowledge as to lead him to believe that the bard might have practiced medicine.
 Claim he Was a Lawyer.
 There is little history to support these theories. For evidence on any of them we have but to looE to the lines of the poet, who had a mint of phrases in his brain" upon nearly every subject
Arizona republican., 1913-01-26

The claim that Shakespeare was a lawyer sounds more plausible than any claim to him made by others. Shake speare loved legal phraseology and his frequent use of it shows that he must have been familiar with the legal pro- fession and the law.
 It has been a matter of dispute among critics whether or not the poet was a lawyer, or even a lawyers clerk. Natural to an EngIishman.
 Devecmon says that Shakespeare was not necessarily a lawyer because he used legal terminology. The critic seeks to account for Shakespeare's le- gal phrases from the fact that the poet was brought up in a legal atmosphere, and that
 England is, and always has been the true home of the lawyer, and the Englishman takes as naturally to a legal contest as the Irishman to rough and tumble fight, or the F'renchman to duel.
 On the other hand, Lord Campbell, the author of the Lives of the Chief Justices,' calls attention to the fact that in twenty three of the thirty seven uTdHldS dttTIDuleu lO there are characters talking law. Af- ter citing more than one hundred Shakespearean quotations which illus trate some point of law, the writer dis sects the will of Shakespeare, and finds evidence of the poets having been clerk to an attorney at Stratford previous to his joining the actors at London. He says:
 To ShakeSpeares law, lavishly
 as he prOpounds it, there can neith-
 CT be demurrer, nor bill of excep-
 tions, nor writ of error
 Senator Cushman Davis says:
 Shakespeare's persistent and cor
 rect use of law terms was long ago
 noticed, and caused the conjecture that he must have studied in an attorneys office. What is the truth in this respect will probably
 never be certainly known, but that he was more addicted to the em-
 ployment of legal nomenclature than any other English writer, is incontestible
