HIGHWAY BONDS
GREAT BENEFIT
Subject Thoroughly Discussed r..
Road Specialists of Depart

Road building specialists firm the

tin entitled "Highway Bonds" have
the following to say about the benefit
OF we'll constructed highway to
property owners whose property IS
rot directly on the road to be i'm
proved:
In planning the highway system
rc the main market roads it will be
found necessary to omit many roads,
the Improvement of which is greatly
desired by abutting land owners. The
fact that such property holders must
pay a tax for the bond issue is only
an apparent injustice, for if the high
way system is we'll planned the ell
the Improvement. AS a rule, the
main market roads reach the major
ity of producing areas, and when
they are improved all land value
tend to increase"
The fact that cities and large
towns are frequently taxed for boz
issues to build highways outside
Noir limits is sometimes made
vt o' 1obate in bond elcot..ns
at ,Gcca-sc large -
he county wealth is within the c.
"orate limits OF such cities "a

It is even urged that the expenditure
should be made proportionate to thc
assessed valuation within the city
limits. If the proceeds of the high
way bond issues were distributed in
this way their purposes in many
cases would be defeated. The pri-
mary object of the county market

At the last session of the legisla-

for such sales. The law is very dras-
for violations. Bracey, the plaintiff
in the case, who was operating in
Wheeling, offered for sale the stock
OF the HoWie Mining Co. State Au
ditor J. S. Darst claimed that the
stock did not come within the re-
quirements of the law and at his in
stance BraCey was arrested for a VIC

temporary restraining order from the
u. S. district court prohibiting the
auditor from interfering with Bracey

DISPUTE OVER
ACCOUNT ENDS
IN SHOOTING
c. w. Virgins, Incensed at
Attachment, Wounds
G. 2. Mann
BULLETLODGES
IN LEFT FOREARM
Gun User Is Arrested But
Gave Bond For His APP

AS a result of a dispute over an &C
count Charles P. Mann, one of the
proprietors of the Paris Billiard Par
lors, was shot and slightly wounded
yesterday afternoon by G.. w. Wig
gins, Louisville & Nashville railroad
brakeman. The shooting occurred in
the pool room on the East corner OF
Main and Fifth strsets.
There were several witnesses to the
affair, the pool room being crowded.
Only one shot was fired the bullet
from a 38 caliber <evolver in the
hands of Virgins, taking effect in
Mann's left arm near the elbow.
The trouble arose over an account
which Mann held against Virgins,
which, it is said, had been placed in
the hands of an attorney for collec-
ton, and resulted in garnish-
ment being broughS, Virgins salary
being held up by the order of court.
He entered the pool room about two
o'clock yesterday afternoon and began
to discuss the matter with Mann, who
was standing behind the counter. Ac-
cording to witnesses only few words
passed between them when Virgins
drew his revolver from his pocket
and fired Mann, it is said, made an
effort to get his revolver when num-
Der of bystanders interferred and pre-
vented him from securing the weapon.
After shooting Mann, Virgins, with
his revolver in his hand walked to the
corner where he was taken into GUS
| tody by Jailer Joe Farris, who was on
the opposite corner wien the shot
was fired, and attracted by the report
of the revolver was going to investi-
gate. Virgins was taken to the store
of January & Connell where he ar
ranged for bond for his appearance
| in court.
He gave bond in the sum OF $500 FOL
his appearance in court to answer to
the charge of shooting with intent to
kill.
The wound suffered by Mann, while
painful is in On manner a serious one
He was taken to his home on East
Eighth street. where his injuries were
attended.

STATE GAME WARDEN URGES
PROTECTION OF THE QUAIL

State Game Warden George M. Hill,
of this city, is exerting every effort
to impress the farmers and sportsmen
of this and adjoining counties with
the Importance of protecting quail
during the cold weather, and especi-
ally during the period when the
ground is covered with snow, and
when they have practically no food
upon which to subS:SI.
Farmers upon whose places there
are known to be quail are asked to
supply small grain, and scatter 1t
about in places where the birds are
known to frequent. This will prove
great help in prolonging the lives
until a more favorable season when
they will seek their own food.
eff this course is followed by the
farmers generally" said Mr.. Hill
there will be bountiful crop Of the
birds when the season for hunting
opens. T he lack of interest upon
this point has been responsible fol
the death of quail in large number and
the result is short crop of birds
This is the season when food should
be furnished them"
