MISS NANCY CLAY
ASKS HEART BALM
Kentucky Heiress Files a Breach
Of Promise
Suit.

Cincinnati. Dec. 21.--Miss Nancy
Clay, twenty years old, an heiress
of Paris, KY, and descendant of the
distinguished Kentucky family OF
that name, now living at 494 West
Fourth street, wants l.. Ambrose Hol-
tiers, twenty-one years old, of Bond
Hill, to pay her $4,000 damages for
his alleged refusal to make good his
promise to marry her.
Miss Clay's suit, filed this after
noon contains copies of few of sew
eral score of letters and kilograms
now in the possession of the girls
attorney, and which she says she re-
ceived from Holters while she was
living i'm Columbus, o., where, she
says, he visited her at frequent in
tervals. Hooters is now engaged to
another, is the claim of Miss Clay in
her suit.
Miss Clay is a daughter of b. j..
Clay, wealthy stock raiser Of Paris,
Ky. Her mother died in 1899 and
her daughter inherited her mothers
property, which included one farm of
1872 acres in Bourbon county, Ken
lucky, and another of 210 acres in
Madison county, that State.
According to Miss Clay's statement
in the office of her attorney. she was
introduced to Hooters while he was
on a business trip to Paris, Ky. About
a year ago she says, the acquaintance
was renewed when they met after
she went to Columbus, O., to study
music. She has not returned to her
home since, she said.
In her suit she said she accepted
Holsters attentions as genuine and
he paid many visits to her while she
was living i'm fiat at Columbus. She
says in her suit he promised to marry
her first while visiting her at that
address last March, and she alleges
her present additional embarrass
ment is due to the fact, as she claims,
that she placed too great a reliance
upon his statement that he would
marry her. ''''s
Extracts from the copies of letters
attached to the petition follow:
Dear and Sweet Nancy: You are
all that anybody could be in this
world for ME. sweetheart. Please
remember, sweetheart, that the hap
piest day of my life will be on your
arrival sin Cincy to stay" r
Honestly, dear, would Just love
to come UP Friday night. but, dear
it is impossible before Saturday. Oh,
for Just one sweet kiss from you,
dear. and would feel 100 per cent
better. can't tell you how much
l love you" tHg f."
"If you would come to. Cincy l
would just love and kiss you until
you would get tired of it," -

Dakota, wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois
and some of the other States, there
is wonderful work being done, and
those States are wanting some of
our products of which we have a
surplus and no market, for which
they are willing to pay a good price
and we cannot fill their demans
without an organization. They also
have necessities that we want that
can be had with great saving to
us. Yet we can not secure these
benefits without cooperative
movement. ! am sure there would
be over a million dollars year
saved the Kentucky farmers if they
would only do as they are being urg-
ed and asked by the most up-to-date
farmers of the country.
Some of the old members seem to
have a grudge at the A. S. of E. on
account of mistakes that have been
made, yet they themselves make by
far greater mistakes in their bust
ness. There is but one thing to do
that is, bury the past and begin
anew. Let by-gOnes be by-gones for
eternity and trust to the all-wise
God for help and guidance in the fu-
ture. We have learned much about
organization that we did not know
in the beginning. so let us profit by
the past and start again.
! wish to beg and insist that all
who can, will come out to hear these
speakers when they arrive. and be
benefited. II you do not intend to
become a member. you will learn
something from these men of talent,
and thereby be greatly paid for your
time and trouble.
Yours for Equity
HENRY M. PIRTLE.

Resolution.

At a church business meeting of
members of the Hartford Baptist
church held Wednesday night, the
following resolution was presented
and adopted.
The church is divine institu-
ton, purchased with the blood of
Christ.-Matt. 1918; Acts 20:2S.
Members of the blood bought church
are exhorted to abstain from con-
forming to. and taught to keep them
selves unspotted from the world
Rom. 1872. Jas. 1927; 4:4. The
church is commanded to withdraw
from every brother that walks dis
orderly.-2 Thes. 3:6. II.
There are certain sins named in
the Holy Scriptures. which are 80
offensive to God that those who con-
tinue in them have no place in his
Kingdom Cor. 6:9-10; Gal. 6:1s-
81. Among these are adultery, for
nication. murder, drunkenness. theft.
Profanity is condemned.-Ex. 2O:7.
Avoidable absence from the meetings
of the church is censured.-Heb.1 TO-
25. Those who do any, of these
things walk disorderly, and should
be dealt with accordingly to divine
command. At this point there is
little difference of opinion.
But dancing is a practice about
which the opinions of members of the
churches are more divergent. There
fore il is the more important that
the churches make clear their posi-
tion on this subject.
"Revellings" are mentioned with
other recognized sins. They are
named among 1.-The. works of the
flesh. and i'm contrast with "the
fruit of the spirit" II is plainly
said that they which do such things
shall not inherit the kingdom of
God. Gal. 5:19-21. That dancing
is species of revellings there can
be no doubt. Moreover the word
here translated revellings is defined
by the greatest Greek-English lexi-
con in existence as denoting "a jovial
festivity with music and dancing"
Moreover dancing is a worldly am
usement. Therefore to dance is to
be conformed to this world. 1t is
to walk according to this world,
rather than according to the spirit.
1t is disOrderly. ~
Therefore be II resolved by the
First Baptist Church of Hartford,
KY: -''r'
/. That this church Is unalterab-
iy opposed to all disorderly practices.
such as adultery. fornication. muir
der. theft, drunkenness. profanity.
dancing. avoidable' absence from the
services OF Gods house. etc.
2. This church Is ,unalterably OPP
posed TO teaching others to dance.
to taking lessons In dancing. to at
tending places where dancing is be-
ing, taught. to sending others to 30
called dancing schools, to giving or
attending dancing parties, to patron
izing. or In any way giving encour-
agement TO such parties. 49, Isl
8. Any member of this church
who shall do any; OF these things shall
be regarded as'in disorder. and to be
dealt with according to apostolic
commando 'Thes. 3:s. ~. ~
4. These resolutions shall be in
force from and sfaeF their adoption
by the church. Tt'sp ~ -

Suicides In Cars Army,

The Razvedchik, the semi-off1cial or
gan of the Russian army, publishes
some startling figures about the ex-
tent Of the suicide mania among Rus
sian troops, quoting a report recently
presented to a Moscow learned society
by a well-known military surgeon, Doc
tor Prozoroff.
1t appears that in 1905 no fewer
than IA cases of suicide occurred in
the Russian army. In the following
year the number rose to 1872. Since
then it steadily kept on growing, be-
ing 210 in 1907, 242 in 1908, 263 in
1909, 268 in 1910, BAT in 1911 and 405
in 1912. Within seven years, there
fore, the number of suicides increased
about one hundred and fifty per cent.
The figures for 1913 have not yet been
published, but, according to Doctor
Prozoroff, the first eight months of
last year showed 377 cases of suicide
and 1879 cases of attempts at suicide,
and for 1914 the high mark continues.
