And Business Men are Urged
To Be On Hand With
out Fail.
IT IS OF VAST IMPORTANCE
More Stock To Be Sold To Make
Bigger Fair Next
Year.

A meeting that will have a ire.
mendous hearing on the future OF
the Pennyroyal fair will be held al
the Avalon at 10 o'clock next Thurs
day. 1t is urged that all friends Of
the fair make it point to be pres.
ent. The meeting is to formulate
plans for the 1916 fair and to con.
slider the issuing of more stock to
put the association on firmer fnan-
cial basis.
In spite of the rainy week this
year, that almost ruined the fair, the
deficit was not large and the fair
only needs a little more backing to
put it on a good footing. The bust
ness men cannot afford to treat this
call with indifference. Hopkinsville
must not be discouraged by one
rainy we k. but see that the next
fair is bigger and better than ever.

Formal Announcement Made
by the Public Health
Service.
SOUTHERN DRS. DISCUSS IT
0ne-Sided Diet Cause and Well
Balanced Diet Will
Cure.

Washington, Nov. 15.-Discovery
of the cause and cure of pellagra was
announced formally by the public
health service. The announcement
follows the recent publication of a
report by Surgeon Joseph COLDER
ger on a year of experiments in CO.
operation with southern state health
officials demonstrating the correct
ness of the theory that a one.sided
diet. lacking in proteids would cause
the disease and that wel-ba anced
diet would cure it.
The spread of this dread malady,
which has been increasing in the
United States at a terrific rate du.
ring the past few years, may now be
checked and eventually eradicated, T"
says the service statement. 1T is
estimated that 5000 cases of the
disease will have occurred in the
United States in 1915 and of this
number at least z 800 will have died
before the end of the year. In many
sections only tuberculosis and pneu-
lnonia exceed it as a cause of death. "
he final dietary tests were made
by Surgeon Goldberger and Assist.
ant Surgeon G.. A. Wheeler at the
farm of the Mississippi penitentiary.
where half dozen of eleven convicts
were given pellagra by feeding them
for five months on bountiful meals
consisting chiefly of cereals and
sweets and lacking in meats, milk
eggs, beans and peas. The victim:
were recently pardoned by the gov
ernor and are being restored tC
health through corrected diet.

AustrO-German Forces Report
Capture Of Many
Prisoners.
RUSSIANS HAVE TAKEN RIGA
British and French Troops Have
Some Success in Small
Offensive Movements.

London, Nov. 15.-The Serbians
are falling back from mountain
range to mountain range before the
ro-Germans, whose official re-
ports enumerate the capture of a
thousand or more prisoners daily, a.
few guns and quantities of stores.
The Serbians. however, are infict-
ing considerable losses on their pur-
suers.
Along the eastern front the Serbi-
ans appear to be holding their own.
The British and French troops, which
are receiving reinforcements, are
meeting with some success, and be-
sides repulsing Bulgarian attacks
have undertaken small offensives
with good results.
The Russians have repealed def
nitely Won Hindenberg's drive to-
wards Riga and Dvinsk and along
the Dvina river and have taken the
offensive, but apparently, owing to,
the state of the ground, have made
only slow progress in the marsh re-
gion west of Riga.

BAD AUTO
COLLISION
Mrs. ThOs. L. Morrow Sustains
Serious Cuts and
Bruises.

A serious accident occurred Sat
urday evening on Virginia street. at
the c1rner of 18th. when DR.. Man.
ming Browns Cole touring car col
lided with ]. H. Morgan's Ford run
about. badly wrecking Mr.. Morgan's
car and severely injuring Mrs. Thos.
L. Morrow. wife of the agent of the
Illinois Central Railroad. who was
in the car. DR.. Browns car was
driven by his son. Robert; and an
other boy was with him. The col
hsiun occurred as the larger machine
came into Virginia from 18th street
The wheel of the Ford was lifted ur
and Mrs. Morrow was thrown
against the windshield and her face
cut in many places. The bridge OF
her nose was broken and her fore,
head deeply gashed. There are 9th.
er cuts. one over the left eye, anoth'
er extending across the left side OF
her face and still another on the
right side of her nose. Her right
hand also sustained a cut that re-
quired several stitches. Mrs. Nor
row was taken into Mr.. Geo. E
Randle's house and her HUSBAND
soon arrived and she was taken tt
the Stuart Hospital in short while
where her injuries we're attended to
She was removed to her home The
next morning. but is still suffering
very much.

Mr.. MORROW'S CARD.

The card addressed to the people
of Kentucky by Hon. Edwin P. Nor
row has received much favorable
comment. The first claim made for
Mr.. Morrow was that he would con-
cede nothing in advance of the Off
cial canvass of returns. In view of
this statement, his card conceding
the election of Mr.. Stanley was a
surprise. 1t was a well-worded
statement, of distinctly patriotic
tone, but the fact that it was issued
after a conference of Republican
leaders in louisville, deprives it of
any self-sacrificing spirit. 1t is more
than likely thai the Republicans do
not want any official investigation
into the election. They do not want
to explain the methods by which
nearly 10000 Republican majority
was piled up in one district, in which
there were hardly enough Democrats
in some precincts for election officers
and no local contests to bring out a
heavy vote. One clear case Of fraud
has been discovered and there may
have been others in recording the
votes, by which returns were system
atically padded. If so. the facts
ought to be made public,~and new
light may be thrown on Mr.. Nor
rows determination not to invite ex-
posture of the mountain methods of
keeping Democrats out of Office. But
whatever motives may have influenc-
ed him. the public generally is glad
that the business of the legislature
is not to be interfered with by con-
test. The proper place to expose any
frauds psrpetrated is in the courts,
which alone have power to punish
the gui ty.

Booker T. Washington Sue
cumbs to Nervous
Breakdown.
HURRIED TO HOME FROM N. Y.
Condition Serious Only in Past
Week.-Mrs. Work Among
People Of His Race.

| Iuskegee, Ala, Nov. l5.-Booker
T. Washington, the noted negro ed
ucator and founder of Tuskegee In
stitute, died of a nervous breakdown
early Sunday at his home here, four
hours after his arrival from New
York.
The negro leader had been in fail
ing health for several months, but
his condition became serious only
last week while he was in the east.
He realized the end was near, but
was determined to make the long
trip south to bear out his oft-ex.
pressed statement that he had been
"born in the south, have lived all my
life in the south and expect to die
and be buried in the south. "
Washington is survived by his wild
ow, three children and four grand
children. His brother, John H.
Washington, is superintendent of in
dustries at Tuskegee institute.
The funeral will be held at Tuske-
gee institute tomorrow morning at
10 o'clock.
SKETCH OF WASHINGTON.
Washington was born in slavery
near Hale's Ford, Va, in 1857 or
1858. After the emancipation of his
race he moved with his family to
West Virginia. He was an ambitious
boy and saved his money for an edu-
cation. When he was able to scrape
together sufficient funds to pay his
stage coach fare to Hampton, Va,
he entered Gen. Armstrong; school
| for negroes there and worked his
way through an academic course,
graduating in 1875. Later he became
a teacher in the Hampton institute,
where he remained until 1881, when
he organized an industrial school for
negroes at Tuskegee. He remained
principal of this school up to the
time of h death.
The institute started in a rented
shanty church and today it owns
$500 acres of land in Alabama and
has nearly 100 buildings valued at
100000.
| Washington won the sympathy and
support of leading southerners by a
speech in behalf of his race at the
Cotton States exposition in Atlanta
in 1895. OF undoubted ability and
breadth of vision, his sane leader.
ship enabled him to accomplish more
for and among the negroes of the
: United States than any negro of his
time.
In addition to his prominence as
an educator, Washing ton gained con-
siderable fame as an author. He re-
ceived an honorary degree of master
of arts from Harvard university in
1896 and was given an honorable de-
gree of doctor of law by Dartmouth
college in 1901.
An incident of Washington's ca
reer made him a figure of national
prominence during the tdministra.
tion of President Roosevelt. He sat
down to lunch with the president at
the white house, either by formal or
informal invitation. There was a
storm of protest, particularly from
the south, but in spite of the result
ing hostility shown toward him by
many white persons, Washington
continued to exert a widespread in
fiuenced toward the betterment Of
his people.

EASY MARK
High School Administered
Fourth Defeat, a Crush
ing One.
SCORE % TO Z AT THE END
Disabled Players Back In
Game and Victory Was
Soon Achieved.

Today JOY reigns in the camp OF
the Orange and Black and another
wildcat pelt adorns the walls of oul
beloved high school. But over tbs
little city on the Cumberland hangs
heavy cloud of gloom, for Satur
day afternoon the defenders of Hop
kinsville's honor trod rough shoe
over the Tennessee squad.
Long before 2:30 the crowd began
to assemble and soon the GAINESVILLE
team came on the field amid the
cheers of their hackers. Just be-
fore 2:30 our boys trotted in and
then we showed GAINESVILLE what we
thought Of them and everybody else.
Captain Roberts lost the toss and
Clarksvil e received tn kick at the
north goal. By a series Of line
plunges and. end runs they scored q
touchdown in the first few minutes
of play. They kicked goal. The
GAINESVILLE rooters went wild and
acted as if they already had the
game.
High school came right back and
scored touchdown on twenty
yard run by Oldham. Breathitt
failed to kick goal. The bal
changed hands several times but the
play remained in the mid-field and
the first half ended with the score
to Gin favor of Clarksville.
Refreshed by the short rest and
encouraged by coach Mallory's
our boys came right back the last
half and literally wiped GAINESVILLE
off the map. On the first two plays
Moseley ran sixty yards for touch
down. Thereafter touchdown fol
lowed touchdown until the game
ended 80 to z with H. H. S. carry
ing off the honor.
To Capt. Light" Roberts goes
the glory. Playing with bone II
his leg just healed from clear
fracture he ran the team like the
all-western quarterback that he is
Brown at full covered himself witt
glory. His passes were ike rifle
shots in speed and accuracy and hi

man of H H. S. Throughout The
season he has played end. left guard
left and right tackle. Pet deserves
all the praise he pets. Also we mus
not forget the playing of Harris
Miller. Torian and Hill. Harris haC
no trouble with the GAINESVILLE backs
and Miller, although a Freshman
and new man. played like a veter-
an. Torian and Hill played their
old time game. and that means as
good as anybody's game
For GAINESVILLE Adwell on right
end played the best game.
Between halves the GAINESVILLE
rooters attempted snake dance
over the field, but the loyal support
ers of H. H. S. surrounded them
and ran rings around them and out
yelled them so that for the res. OF
the game they kept quiet. After
the game the High School enthusi-
asts paraded the streets and made
merry &C the corner of Ninth and
Main to the great disgust of the
C. H. S. bunch. 80 to Z was the
score Of the game
and we go marching on.
Glory. glory to'the High School.
