THE APPALACHIAN FAIR

That we are to have a fair this
fall has been determined upon.
The stockholders in this enterprise
deserve the commentator of
every citizen of this and adjoining
counties. The Appalachian Fair
has worked wonders in our midst
and no right thinking man or
woman wants to see it pass out.
Financially, it has not been sue
cess, but the stockholders have
stood manfully by the fair and
gone down into their pockets as
individuals and contributed money
to make it live. With united ef-
fort we can have the greatest fair
this fall eyer before held in Cooke
county and the time to start the
work is right now.

THE POLITICAL POT

There is being a good deal of
talk concerning the August cleo
ton pro and con. Flent Ray is
being urged by friends to make
the race for sheriff, while Hubert
Anderson and Dunk Balch are be-
ing frequently mentioned for the
offices of county court clerk and
trustee. Tommy Haun claims he
will win the race for register.
This furnishes opposition for the
nominees of the March primary,
with the exception of Frosty
Lowell, who is a candidate for
circuit court clerk. 1t is claimed
by many that the primary of March
18th was illegally held and that
votes were bought, therefore peo-
pie are not under obligations to
vote for those claiming the nomi-
nations.

Did you ever know that jam which

oven until the sugar melts. then taking

When you make mince pies brush

Never have linen starched if you are
going to put it away for a long time.

Rinse the articles quite free from
starch. dry and fold away in blue pa

yellow.
Methylated spirits serve as remov-
er of grease stains from fight fabrics.

DuELING IN ITALY.
How the Count Of Turin Came to Fight
Prince Henry of Orleans.


The greatest duel of modern days
in Italy was that between the Count
of Turin and Prince Henry Of Or
leans. 1t came about in curious
manner. Prince Henry had insult
ed the Italian army after the battle
of Adowa and one day received a
telegraphic challenge to duel sign
ed "Victor Emmanuel" The chal-
lenge was accepted, and thus Crispi,
who was prime minister, came to
know of the crown princes impul-
sive action and interfered.
But said King Humbert, his
father, show can it be stopped !?
Our honor is now involved"
Crispi thought moment and
then exclaimed: 81 have it, The
Count of Turin is Victor Emmanuel
also" And thus he was the one
who fought.
This was followed by one of those
genial practical Jokes which con-
vulsed Europe. France at that time
hated Italy and never lost an OPP
portunity to sneer at her. 1t must
be explained that in Rome there
was always at carnival time char
acteristic figure of IA little old man,
with an immense sword riding a
donkey, who was a caricature of the
age of chivalry and was called
General Mannaggia la Rocca."
One day in the French papers ap-
peared an imposing announcement
that General Mannaggia la Rocca
threw his glove at the feet of the
entire French nation and cast their
base insinuations in their teeth, in,
viting any or all to mortal fight.
Replies were not long in coming.
one of which was from a noted fenc-
er and duelist of his day, M. Tome
gueux, appointing his seconds and
announcing their arrival in Rome.
France was on the qui vive, from
government personages to the hum

ed upon them was discovered all

GUILTY OR NOT GUILTY!

The esteemed Knoxville Senti-
mel throws quite a compton fit
in its demand for a new trial for
Leo Frank convicted of murder
ing little Mary Phagan in Atlanta
last year.
The Sentinel says Detective
Burns has convinced himself that
Frank is innocent, but it fails to
remember that Burns is Franks
hired man and that he was hired
for the express purpose of con
vincing' himself and others that
Frank was innocent. AS an ex-
ample of the convincing" evil
dence Burns has unearthed, an
Atlanta Baptist preacher has con-
fessed that he was paid two hun
dred dollars to make affidavit that
Frank did not kill the girl. There
is too much of a disposition to
overturn the verdicts of juries
and make it easy for criminals to
escape.
Let the guilty receive the pen
atty of his guilt whether he be a
Dago gunman in New York or a
Hebrew degenerate in Atlanta.
