SERIOUS FREIGHT WRECK;
CYNTHIANA SOY KILLED

North-bound fast freight No. AZ, on
the Louisville & Nashville road, was
wrecked near Yuma, in Pendleton,
county, Sunday afternoon, eighteen
cars being derailed. The train was
in charge of Conductor Frank Bryan,
Engineer Leo McKenney and Fire
man Harvey Feeback. Bernard Ken
ton, IS, of Cynthiana, was stealing a
ride, and was caught under one of
the cars and badly injured. His leg
was crushed, necessitating anlputa-
ton. He died shortly afterward, con
Tossing that he had pulled the air
brake handle causing the wreck.
Two companions with him were unin-
jured. All through trains were de-
toured by way of Maysville, and over
the c.. & O. tracks to Cincinnati. The
wreckage will be cleared by this
morning. The Natural Bridge ex-
cursion train of fifteen coaches and
with about 1000 eXcursionists, was
detained here until 11:15 p. M, on
account of the wreck, and tn etourists
put in the time seeing Paris. The
accident is said to have been caused
by the bursting of the air hose un'
der one of the cars, which caused
the cars to buckle" and overturn.

BROTHER SHOOTS BROTHER

Nelson Gay, a fourteen-year-old col
ored boy, was shot and instantly
killed Saturday afternoon, on the
farm of Mr.. E. X. Thomas, near
North Middletown, by his brother, Joe
Gay, aged thirteen. The killing was
purely accidental.
The boys, whose parents are ten
ants on the Thomas farm, had secur-
ed shot gun belonging to their faith
er, Gene Gay, and were out in the
front yard of their home shooting
bullbats. The older Gay had just re-
loaded the gun with two shells, and
was in the act of raising it to his
shoulder when it was accidentally
discharged, the entire load taking eff
feet in the head and right side of the
younger brother, who fell to the
ground and expired almost instantly.
Coroner Rudolph Davis, of Paris, was
Immediately notified, and accompani,
ed by Deputy Sheriff Gibson, went to
the scene. The boys parents were
eye-witneSseS to the shooting, which
was purely accidental, and the
Coroner, after hearing their testimo-
ny, decided no jury investigation of
the case was necessary, and made
his report in accordance with the
facts

CAUGHT IN STEEL TRAP,
THIEF MANAGES TO ESCAPE

For some time Mr. James Batter
ton, who conducts the ice cream
works, near the old Midland depot, on
South Main street, has been missing
quantities of cream, which disappear
ed from other causes than leakage
At one time the thief or thieves, got
away with ice cream, freezer and all.
At times freezers left in the wagons
under the wagon shed with a quanti-
ty of cream disappeared almost be-
fore the driver reported to the Office.
Last Thursday night Mr.. Batterton
secured two steel traps and set them
just under the surface of a partly fill
ed freezer which had been purposely
left in the shed. About half an hour
afterward the air was filled with
screams of agony, and Mr.. Batterton,
securing a revolver, hurridly made
his way to the wagon shed, but the
thief had managed to release himself
and escaped, leaving no clue. Mr..
Batterton sat up for an hour or two
awaiting for the thief to return and
get the other trap, but without re-
suit. In the meantime the police are
searching for a man or boy with a
MANNED hand, and Mr.. Batterton has
not lost any more ice cream. He has
traps ready for active service again,
if needed.

WAR AFFECTS PARIS MARKETS.

Although very remote from the
scene of the European conflict, Paris
(ky) is feeling in some degree the
stringency in the money market and
the increased cost of foodstuffs
which is causing a general protest all
over the United States.
There is general Outcry against
the increase in the prices of certain
commodities, for which there seems
to be no reasonable excuse. Retailers
have to protect themselves it is ad
mitted, but it is against the large
wholesale companies who have put
up the prices that there is so much
feeling.
Hogs are said to be cheaper than
they were several weeks ago, and
yet Trash pork is selling at % cents
pound, which is an advance of 2
cents, and the wholesale price has ad-
vanced even more
Beef, veal and lamb remains the
same, from Is to Is to 20 and %
cents for choice cuts. Lard is still
retailing at Is cents.
Flour has advanced 60 cents on the
hundred pounds. A month a ago it
was selling cheaper than had been
known for long time, but now it
costs consumers $1.7O for fifty
pounds, Notwithstanding the fact that
there is more wheat in the country
than for years, and local dealers are
paying only rs cents bushel for it.
Sugar is another necessity that is
rapidly advancing in price, selling at
9 cents a pound, II pounds for ST.
and SITS a hundred
Fresh vegetables are selling at
fairly reasonable prices-corn at Is
and 20 cents a dozen, potatoes at 40
cents a peck and tomatoes at $1.50
per bushel.

A marriage that will prove Of in
terest locally and elsewhere in the

city yesterday afternoon, when Rev.
J. S. Sims, of the Methodist Church,
united in marriage Mr.. Herbert C..
Dawson, of Lexington, well-known as
Hub Dawson, and Miss Mary Doz-
Ter. of Versailles. The couple came
to Paris yesterday afternoon from the
home of the bride in Versailles, and,
after the bride had made the custo-
mary affidavit as to her age, mar
riage license was granted by County
Clerk Patton. Rev. Sims was found IN
his study at the Methodist church and
the ceremony was performed there.
Mr.. and Mrs Dawson left on the 3:45
interurban car for Lexington. 1t is
said that objections on the part OF
the brides parents impelled the
couple to seek Paris as Gretna
Green. The groom is well-known
throughout the Bluegrass region, hav-
ing for many years been catcher for
the Richmond team in the Blue Grass
League, later going to the ST. Paul
team of the Northwestern League,

A CASE FOR THE CIVIC LEAGUE.

The old Baptist church property,
which was purchased some years ago
by the firm of Kress & Co., who an
nounced that they would Immediately
erect a fine business house on the
site, has since that time become any
thing but thing of beauty. The lot
is full of rubbish, in full view of
Main street, and has been in that con-
dition so long that it has become an
eye-sore The attention of the Health
Officer and Civic League is called to
the fact that the lot referred to is
overgrown with rank weeds and other
vegetation affording a convenient hid
ing place for refuse Of all kinds, and
contributing to make the place about
as unsightly as a Coney Island beach
after a storm The site of the con-
templated Y M. G. A. building is also
falling into disrepute and keeping bad
company with the weeds. Remember

hours by the wreck on the l.. N.

PARIS, Oct. %.
Information received in Paris from the

other than in the north is increasing
daily. The frequent rains. with their dis
comfort to the troops. have had a ten
dency TO force the fighting. The Germans
would appear to have selected o'clock
in the evening as the hour for their
heaviest attack at certain points where
rapidity is not essential and where the
battle is in the nature of n siege.
French newspapers today mention the
success of the allied artillery near La
Bassee and st. Mihiel. the extraordinary
viSor with which the allied infantry an
proach the trenches of the enemy and
the pursuit of German cavalry by French
aViators. From these conditions they de-
duce that the forces of the Allies are in
excellent condition.
The Allies apparently are fighting with
the greatest ardor and determination to
take the important city OF Lille in spite
OF the extraordinary resistance of the
