BIG CHANGES IN THE
PRISON PAROLE LAW
Approval OF Governor Necessary
Before The Parole Is
.----- Granted.

Frankfort, Ky, Feb. 20.-Radi-
zeal changes in the prison parole law
are provided for in the Helm bill
that passed the Senate late this at
ternoon by the vote of 20 to /. The
dissenting vote was cast by Senator
c. F. Montgomery, of Casey county,
author of a rival measure that had
just been defeated. Provided the
Helm bill becomes a law, the APP
prevail of the Governor will be nee
essary before parole can be issued
His consent also will have to be Sc
cured before parole violator may
be returned to the penitentiary.
The Senate also passed the Helm
bill, amending the indeterminate
sentence law. which recently was
held to be defective by the Court OF
Appeals on the ground that it con-
ferred judicial power on the Prison
Commissioners, whose functions are
purely administrative.
An emergency clause is contained
in the Helm Parole Bill. BESIDES
providing for an additional employ
ment agent at $1,000 a year, it ere
ates the Office of secretary to the
Prison Commission at salary ST.
500 year. II increases from five
to eight years the period II person
sentenced to prison for life must
serve before he may become eligible
for parole.
The essential difference between
the Helm bill and the Montgomery
measure. that was offered as a sub
stitute and voted down. was that
the latter provided that any prisoner
serving an indeterminate sentence
should be automatically entitled to
parole when he had served his
minimum term and had for nine
months previous observed all the
rules and regulations of the prison.
Considerable interest was mani
tested in the Prison Parole Bill and
the indeterminate measure for the
reason that Lieut.. Gov. McDermott
drafted the Helm bills covering the
subjects and Attorney General Gar
nett drew the Montgomery bills,
both OF which were defeated.

a glorious "souse."
That was something the young

ENDED LIFE OVER vow
OF EARLY GIRLHOOD

Philadelphia, Penn, Feb. a.
Miss Letitia Rider,4S years old, took
her life to-day by inhaling illumi-
mating gas after having brooded for
months over girlhood vow never
to marry, which she had kept too
we'll.
Getting on in years, she was
alone in the world. Since last May
she had lived the life of a recluse in
her room. She seldom spoke to her
neighbors and when she did, she
told them of her mistaken notions
of life when she was girl.
When the woman did not answer
a neighbours knock to-day he inves-
tigated and found her dead in bed.
She had stuffed the cracks of win
dow and door with cloth and turned
on the gas.

Dellingham. WASH, Feb. 30
Three passengers on Northern Pa

night, were shot dead
Thomas b. Wadsworth, Cana
dian Pacific conductor, of Vancouv-
err, u. c.: X. l.. Lee, of Bremerton,
Wash, and II. Il. Anderson, a trav-
cling salesman. of Vancouver, b. G.,
were the men killed.
The bandits boarded the train at
Burlington, few miles south of the
place where they attacked the pas
sengers in the day coaches.
The, robbers rode in the smoking
car until they were ready to act.
They then went into the vestibule
between the smoking car and the
day coach, tied handkerchiefs about
their faces and entered the day
coach with drawn revolvers.
Most of the passengers confronted
by the bandits threw up their hands,
but three men attempted TO resist.
They were killed instantly.
Two of the men had gone ON
through the day coach. One stood
at the rear door, while second
stepped into the vestibule.
AS the three men killed grappled
with one bandit, the robber at the
end OF the car began shooting into
the ceiling and put out the lights.
The robber, graphing with the
three men, quickly fired ten shots.
Lee was not killed by the first shot
and tried to crawl behind the rear
seat. The bandit kept firing, and
five or six shots entered his back.
None of the shots fired by the other
bandit hit any one, but he terroriz-
ed the passengers. A half dozen
women tainted.
The rObber who killed the men
turned back to the front of the
coach. AS he passed along several
women held their purses out in the
aisles. He gathered up several and
ran. The bandits left the train to-
gether as il came to a stop from a
signal given by the conductor who
had heard the shooting from anoth-
or coach.
/ Posses were hurriedly formed and
special train was sent to the scene,
but on account of the wilderness of
surrounding country little hope is
held out for the capture of the out
laws.
1t is thought they may have ta-
ken a boat and gone TO the San Juan
Islands, as the holdup took place on
the edge OF Bellingham Bay.

The speakers all did we'll, but the
judges decided that the winner of
the contest was Mr.. Warren Keith,
of Elizabethtown. Each school
should be proud of its representa-
tive.
The Fordsville Orchestra was on
hand with the very best of music.
We want to take this occasion to
thank our local Orchestra for the
splendid assistance which it has
rendered our school on numerous
occasions.
There are several other High
Schools in the Fourth Congressional
District that should be members of
this Association. Such contests as
these not only train young men in
the art of oratory and debate but
also bring the High Schools in clos
err contact with each other.
Hardinsburg brought about fifty
school boys and girls, while each of
the other schools were well repre-
sented. thus bringing together a
large number of boys and girls from
the different High Schools.

Northern Mexico To Sc

STATES ALONG U. S. BORDER
Far Ahead of South in Prog
ress-Populstion Is
Not Similar.
THE NORTH IS INDEPENDENT

Chihuahua, Mex. Feb. ga plan
for the formation in Northern Mexi-
CO of new republic is now being
perfected, according to persistent
rumors which were in circulation
here to-day.
Certain rebel leaders intimate
that the delay of the Constitution
alist attack on Torreon is due to the
scheme TO rthe divorce of Southern
Mexico. While Gen. Carranza. civil
head of the revolution, and Gen.
villa. the military leader. disclaim
any part in plan which does not
include the overthrow of Huerta, ii
is believed by many here that the
proposition for an independent re-
public is being seriously considered
by them and others.
Reports emanating from Mexico
City that the Federal garrison at
Torreon has been strengthened to a
point where it can make a formida-
BILE resistance. have added impetus
to the idea of separation of the
North from the South. and Gen.
Carranza's coming toChihuahua from
the Pacific Coast is looked on as pos
sibly indicating an early adoption
of the plan.
Many rebel leaders profess to be-
lieve that whatever the outcome OF
the present revolution the North
and South-will not soon be complete
ly amalgamated. The North, they
assert. already is politically indie
pendent and has adopted A. progress
sive attitude wholly at variance to
conditions in the South. where two
factions--the indifferent and the ad-
herents of the old Diaz regime
predominant.
The territory which. ii is said,
might be formed into separate re-
public embraces the five States
along the United States border
Sonora. Chihuahua, Coahuila. Nuevo
Leon and Tamaulipas. with possibly
the inclusion of Sinaloa. The HUI
erta army has been driven out OF
practically all, of this territory. the
chief remaining strongholds of the
Federals being at Tampico on the
East; Monterey. Satillo and Torreon
on the South; Guaymas on the
West. and Nuevo Laredo and Pie
dras Negras on the North.
Asserting that revolutionary lead
ers may have to content themselves
with their victories in the North. Of
ticials high in the rebel government
point out that one reason for the
overthrow of President Madero was
that he represented the ideals of the
North at the seat of the government
in the South, where progress has not
kept pace with the Northern States.
