PRESIDENT EXTENDS AID
IN COLORADO TROUBLE

President Wilson Tuesday ex-
tended the protecting arm of the
federal government to the State
of Colorado. The state being
torn asunder by riots and pitch
ed battles between strike break
ers and striking miners, the gov
ernor found the militia unable to
successfully cope with the criti-
cal situation and asked federal
aid.
In the request for the interfer-
ence of federal troops it was stip-
ulated that they should confne
themselves to maintaining order
only until the state can re-assert
it's authority.
This is one of the rare instan-
ces in American history that a
state found itself impotent to as
sert it's authority in quelling dis
orders within it's borders.

RAILWAY MAIL CLERK
IS SERIOUSLY CHARGED

Suspected of having been the
thief who robbed a registered
mail package containing $4,000,
which was mailed by the post
master at Dukedom, Tenn, to
the postmaster at Paducah, War
rem N. Childress, of Fulton, a
railway clerk on the Illinois Cen
trail railroad, was taken to Pa
ducah Tuesday under arrest by a
postoffice inspector and turned
over to a deputy U. S. marshal.
When arraigned before United
States Commissioner Gardner at
Paducah, on a charge of violat-
ing the postal laws, Childress
waived a preliminary examina-
tion and was ordered to be held
over to the federal grand jury on
a bond of $3.50. Childress is 80
years old.

JUDGE JNO. C. SWEENEY

persistent in the interest of his
clients, and rose gradually to
eminence in his profession.
For twenty-five years he was
the attorney of the Louisville &
Nashville Railroad and acted as
the claim agent of that company
in settling damage cases for the
road.
In 1902 he was appointed as
Federal Judge, under President
Roosevelt to the Philippine Is
lands, at Manila, serving in that
capacity for four years, after
which he returned to Paris and
resumed the practice Of law.
About two years ago he moved
to Memphis where, in connection
with his son, Bomar, he built up
a large law practice in which he
was engaged at the time of his
death
Judge Sweeney was a man of
strong convictions, and as such,
made for himself many friends
whose admiration he always
challenged by his fidelity to his
obligations, both as lawyer and
citizen. He was a Mason,
Knight Templar and a member
of the Methodist church, in each
of which relationships he was
held in highest esteem by all.
Such men as John Sweeney
fill up the measure of those char
acters who further the progress
of humanity in every department
of human endeavor.
Genial by nature, hospitablt
in home life, active in business
infexible in his beliefs, human =
and therefore not faultness (fol
none are) he has run his race
and attained the reward of those
who believe and act in accor(
with conscienciousness born o.
convictions of right and duty.

Judge John G. Sweeney. died
at 1915 O'Clock at his home in
Memphis Friday night, April "a,
after a brief illness.
He was suddenly taken with a
hemorrhage on Monday, which
was followed by several others,
so that there never was any hope
of his recovery.
Funeral was conducted by
Rev. T. w. Lewis, of that city,
at II o'clock Friday at the resi-
dence and the remains were
brought to Paris on the after
noon L. & N. train, arriving at
$40. The body was immediate
ly conveyed to the City Cemetery,
where, after a touching service
by Rev. C. A. Waterfeld, it was
laid to rest in the presence
of a large concourse of weeping
relatives and friends.
Judge Sweeney is survived by
his widow, two sons, E. Baxter
Sweeney, of Paris; D. B. Swee-
ney, of Memphis, and one daugh.
ter, Mrs. Glenn O. Carter, of
New York.
MEMOIR.
John c. Sweeney was born in
Henry county, Tenn, June 2,
1850, of Scotch-Irish parents.
Of humble parentage, he sought
an education, and built for him
self a character of integrity anc
honor among his fellows in his
native county. He was a mar
of ability and strength of pur
pose. First, as clerk in the
Carter House, then as a druggisr
in Caldwell's drug store, while
at the same time he occupied hi
spare time in the study of law
and was admitted to the bar il

sive throughout. Secretary Hud-
son is making up the lists now

JOHN TYLER DROWNED;
BODY FOUND BY BOYS

About II O'Clock Wednesday
morning some boys while fishing
on the Obion river, about three
miles from Puryear, discovered a
mans hat floating in the water.
After a little search they found
the dead body of a man which
proved to be that of John Tyler,
of Puryear.
Mr.. Tyler was on the river
fishing, and as he was subject to
epileptic fits, it is thought that
he fell into the water while one
of these spells was upon him.
Tyler was about 80 years old
and was we'll known in Puryear
and vicinity.

NEW TANGLE ARISES IN
REELFOOT LAKE MATTER

A new tangle has arisen in the
Reelfoot Lake situation. AL
though but recently the state
purchased that portion of the
lake from the West Tennessee
Land Company which the su-
preme court had decreed remain
ed to the company after decree
ing most of it to the state, infor-
nation has reached Gov. Hoop
er that J. c. Burdick, an attor-
ney at Union City, has appeared
before court there and had ex-
hibited a lease which he said had
been granted him by the land
company before the property was
sold to the state.
The lease extends for several
years, and under it Mr.. Burdick
has instituted proceedings to en-
join some fifty or more fisher
men of the lake from fishing in
or going upon the lake, notwith-
standing that these fishermen
have been duly licensed by the
state to do so.
The plan of action determined
upon is for the attorneys for the
state to go to Union City and file
an intervening petition making
the state a party to the suit,
and to take up the gauge of bat
tie for the Reelfoot Lake fisher
men without causing them any
expense incidental to lawsuit.
When the state purchased that
portion of the lake from the land
company there was nothing said
of any lease, and neither the
governor nor the states attor-
neys believe the lease is valid.

BlOODED HORSES NOW
At THE FAIR GROUNDS

At the Henry County Fair
Grounds great preparations are
going on for the purpose of meas
uring speed with speed, and dis
playing the products of pedigree
and blue blood.
One of the most interesting
features out there at this time is
Cooper & Somerville's stables of
fine Kentucky driving and sad
die horses.
Prince Olive, with a record of
2.1O Ia in the pacing races last
year, winning a purse of $1,000
clear of expense, is there. Prince
is in fine trim.
William Wallace, another dis
tinguished Henry countian, with
a 2:13 pacing record, is rooming
out there also. He is likewise in
good shape for the turf.
Mack, another PAGER, belong
ing to DR. Murray Wood, is wait
ing impatiently to break his rec
ord of 2.13 as a PAGER in the
coming races.
Onward Comodore, a green
trotter, belonging to Miller, dis
tinguished himself early in the
season with quarter in thirty
six seconds. Lena Bond, 2.25
PAGER belonging to Miller, is also
spending a vacation at the fair
grounds. Silver Legs, green
PAGER, belonging to this bunch,
has showed considerable speed,
and May Simpson, belonging to
Lon Simpson, of Cottage Grove,
is exciting much interest as a
PAGER and promises to make a
show this season in the races.
Nancy K, New Hampshire
mare, belonging to ]. I. Gatlln,
is working nicely and bids fair
to be of much interest in the
prospective races.
Among the amateurs is a blood
ed colt belonging to Ed Russell.
This youngster is making a fine
showing and will measure speed
with others of his class.
Whiskey Sal, a superb buggy
horse belonging to Cooper Miller,
deserves honorable m ito n
among that class of horses.
Douglas Commodore, a prom
ising youngster of IL months, be-
longing to DR.. G. A. Love, en-
tered the $50, 900 stakes and bids
fair to make a winner. This
youngster shows more speed than
anv other colt of his age in the
country and, with pedigree to
back him, will make a record.
Nance, belonging to }.
T. Gatlin, is in Union City with
trainer Guy Lee. She is report
ed doing excellent work.
Country Dude, the young horse
of Sam McCampbell, with a pac-
ing record of 2.14 Ia, is also
with trainer Lee. Both OF these
horses are expected to make fine
records as Henry county horses.
