SELLING TO INEBRIATE
AFTER PROPER NOTICE

Frankfort, KY. June 9.-When the
notice required by Section 1907 Of the
Kentucky Statutes has been served on
a saloonkeeper notifying him not to
sell liquor to a certain inebriate his
failure to recognize the inebriate when
he visits the saloon will not excuse
him, and malice In the sale may be
presumed once the fact of the notice
is established.
The Court OF Appeals this morning
affirmed verdict in the Boyd Circuit
Court in favor OF Wayne Damron, a
saloonkeeper. sued for $4,000 damages
by Mrs. Lizzie Keyser. whose husband,
she averred. Is an inebrlate. The court
said the jury probably thought the
fact OF notice having been served on
Damron was not sufficiently establish
ed; but in certifying the law on the
point In which counsel for Damron
contended that "the statute authorizes
a conviction only when the sale is
knowingly made" the court said the
civil proceedings are based on the no.
tice, and III the fact Of notice is estab-
lished then IL must be held that II
Damron subsequently sold liquor to
the party he knew to whom he was
selling and that he was an inebriate,
He must know TO whom he sells. II
the sale is made In violation Of the
notice II may be assumed to be a will
ful and malicious violation of It,"

people make It,"

FEUD BREAKS OUT
WITH FATAL RESULTS.

Olympia Springs, June 4.-The Per-
grim Hargis feud, which has been
smouldering since last summer, broke
out afresh this morning and as a re-
suit another Harris is dead and sew
eral more of the feudists may be be-
fore the day is over.
Last summer Jim Harris shot and
killed Thurman Pergrim near the
Springs. This morning as Harris and
his family were moving, they met
Cleve Pergrim. brother OF the man
who was killed last summer, on a
bridge not far from the scene Of the
other shooting. When the smoke OF
the revolvers blew away, Jim Harris
and one of his horses were found dead.
The others, however, were not injured.
Harris father and brother and two
of the Pergrims were reported EN- route
to the scene Of the shooting this morn
ing.
Cleve Pergrim is alleged to have shot
and killed Tom Jones, a liveryman, ten
years ago because Jones refused to let
him have horse.
This shooting occurred in front of
the home Of H. o. Irwin, C. & o. ticket
agent OF Ashland, who was then locat-
ed at Olympia Springs.

GRADUATES WITH HoNoRs.

Miss Lura Moore, daughter of Rev.
and Mrs. Marion Moore, Of this city,
came Tuesday from Nevada where she
graduated from Cottey College with
the A. B. degree. Not only did she
receive diploma for her degree but
an honor diploma. Miss Moore was
awarded the gold medal for the best
scholarship and gold medal for best
all around department. She was edi-
tor in chief of the 1914 annual named
the Sphinx which is the best annual
that has come to our notice. In fact
we never saw one that would compare
favorably, it is work of art and she
is entitled to great praise for her won
derful efforts and untiring energy in
editing this work. Browning may well
feel proud of Miss Moore.-B Browning
(Mo.) Leader Record.
It's the same old story, folks, give
the right sort of Big Sandy boys and
girls chance and they'll find a way
or make it. Miss Moore may be or
not a native of this valley. but she
came Of good old Lawrence county
stock. Her father is Southern Meth
odist preacher who made good right at
the start. Her paternal grandfather
was Uncle Yves" Moore, trusted and
respected in his day and generation.
The young woman's achievement
makes an object lesson to be studied
and learned.

C. q o. RAILWAY REDUCES
PASSENGER FARES

The c. & o. railroad has issued re-
vlsed passenger tariff which shows a
general reduction in rates. effective
June 18th. The basis is a rate OF
about two and one-half cents per mile.
against the old rate OF three cents.
The three largest roads in Kentucky
are doing the same thing. It is said
the 2h cent fare law passed by the
last Legislature is void, owing to a
defect in the title, but these roads have
decided to comply with the spirit OF it
anyway.
The new rate from Louisa to Pike
Vile is $500 instead OF s2.45. Pres
tonsburg. $l.25 instead Of $1.55. Paints
Vile 80 cents, formerly s1.10. Catletts-
burg 65 cents, formerly 70 cents. Lex
ington sS.s5, formerly $3.50. Louis
Vile $500, reduced from 1856.

BIRTHDAY ANNIVERSARIES.

Three young people had birthdays
anniversaries on Saturday last. Miss
Bessie Hewlett. little Anna Mary Miller
and Master Wendell Day were the fa-
vored ones. and each had most de-
iightful time which they shared with
many friends. The small lad and
smaller lassie divided the afternoon,
each holding reception at their in
dividual homes, while Miss Hewlett
received from 5 to II p. m. The sup
ply OF superlative degree adjectives In
the NEWS Office Is not sufficient to
give each OF these three notice com
mensurate with Its interest, so we
shall simply say that each was de-
lightful and happy time was enjoyed
by all.
