ed with petit larceny. was tried and
given GO days. Taylor is claimed to

War Chariots.

Several of the European armies
now engaged in war are using an
American. made armored motor car
which is designed to be driven from
either end, 1t has four forward and
reverse wheels, enabling it to be
driven as rapid y in one direction as
in the other and doing away with
the necessity of having to turn the
machine around before it can pro-
coed in a direction opposite to that
in which it has been travelling Il
drives, brakes and steers on all four
wheels. and has place at each end
for a Chauffeur. The man at the
front of the car has complete control
of it when it is going forward, but
when it turns backward, the steer
ing wheel. brakes and clutch are ep.-
Grated by the rear driver.

teen days. Under this regular sys-
tenn no places escape the notice of
the officer.
Another step which has been Ia
ken is that all the open sewers in
town have been ordered closed up
and the drainage from places where
these had been, turned into the reg.
ular city sewerage system.
In the early part of the spring a
campaign against flies was taken up
and many citizens helped in swat
ting the fly" AS a result of these
efforts the number of flies which
form pestilence has been notice
ably decreased.
A more recent step has been the
ordering of concrete pavements in
all the alleyways which have not
been kept in clean condition. All of
the alleys and open spaces in the
square between Sixth and Seventh
treets and Main and Virginia streets
have been ordered to be concreted.
City Physician j. w. Harmed
states that the rate of typhoid fever
cases has been decreased 80 per cent.
since last year and he attributes the
cause, in the main. directly to the
improved sanitary conditions.
All of the waste matter from the
garbage cans and all refuse which
was formerly dumped inside of the
city limits, is now taken outside of
town and dumped on the city gar.
bage heap, which is far enough
away to be of no harm TO sanitary
conditions.
These are some of the accomplish,
ments of the San tary Officer in the
past year. Mr.. Crawley works un-
der the direction of the City Council
and Board of Health and is anxious
to have all the people of the city
join him to make Hopkinsville the
cleanest spot on the map.

EXCURSION STEAMER
WRECKED in CHICAGO
More Than One thousand Lives Lost In Narrow Stream In
The Heart Of Great City In Daytime.
TURNED OVER in SHALLOW WATER

Chicago, July 26.-More than a.
600 persons, most of whom were wo-
men and children, we're drowned
Saturday almost within leaping dis
lance of land, when the steel steam
er, Eastland, capsized alongside the
wharf in the Chicago river with g.
500 relatives and friends of employees
of the Western Electric company.
The ship rolled over on its side in
twenty. five feet of water within five
minutes after it began to list.
Several persons were taken alive
from the cabins of the ship after she
had lain on her side in the river for
more than four hours.
During the day the sides of the
steamer were cut open with gas
flames and more than 700 bodies
were removed by divers.
Investigation of the cause is still
in progress with no explanation as
yet settled on. Federal, city and
state officers are conducting an in
vestigation to determine whether
the ship was top heavy from faulty
designing. improperly ballasted or
poorly handled in warping away
from the wharf.
The crowding of passengers to one
side of the boat is supposed to have
caused the tragedy, but authorities.
not satisfied with this explanation.
ordered the arrest of officers of the
boat, and Capt. Harry Peterson and
Dell Fisher, first mate, were taken
to police headquarters.
Panic struck the passengers when
the boat began to turn over: Best

DIVORCED
NEGRO MAN
Runs AmuCk and Opens Fire on
Former Wife and
Others.
WINDS UP BY SHOOTING SELF
His Brother Later Appears and
Does Crazy Stunt With
a Knife.

Yesterday morning in City Court
the case of a negro shooting SC ape,
which occurred Saturday night in
the back part of the restaurant oper-
ated by West Garrett on the corner
of Second and Vine Streets, came Up
for trial before Judge Wood, There
were several eye witnesses and all
told practically the same story.
The wife of Rufe Wiley, who OBJ.
tanned a divorce from in the June
term of court, was sitting on the
back porch of Garnett's restaurant
with Ernest Baker. About $50 Wi
ley came up to the porch, pre- una
bly, intoxicated, and started shoot
ing. He shot without any definite
aim four times and then reloaded his
pistol and shot three more times.
None of the shots struck the negro
woman, but Baker was slightly
wounded in the back of the neck by
one of the bullets.
Wiley then pointed the pistol at
the back of his head and with the
last shot fired into his brain and kill
ed himself almost instantly, About
thirty minutes later, Jasper Baker,
the brother of Ernest Baker, who
had been shot, came up and seeing
his brother had been wounded, be-
came almost crazy and with a knife
attacked and-slashed and eat-the
the dead body of Wiley. Policeman
Hawkins arrived in time to stop
further mutilation of the body.
Baker was arrested and charged
with disorderly conduct. He plead
ed guilty and was given Fl days in
Jail. Wiley was from Princeton and
his body was shipped to that place
Sunday. The verdict of the coro-
ner's jury was in substance that Wi
ley was killed by gunshot wound,
supposed by suicide.

reinforcements to meet them.
Along the Vistula, south and west
of Warsaw, there has been little
change except for the German occu-
patton of positions evacuated by the
Russians when they drew in their
line.
While Warsaw is under heavy
pressure, the Austro- Germans have
a lot of stiff work before them if
they are to capture the polish CAPT.
tai. After crossing the Narew they
still have the broaler Bug, lined
with fortresses. to face.
Many are of the opinion that the.
most dangerous attacks at the mo
ment are those in the provinces of
Courland, kovno and Groeno, at the
lines of communications between
Warsaw and the northern interior of
Russia. These attacks are being de-
livered for the most part by cavalry,
and doubt ess will be met in due
time by a concentration of Cossacks.
| The French report another success
in the Vosges at Ban.De-Sapt, where
they claim to have taken more than
800 unwounded prisoners. The
Germans admit the loss of trenches
there.
There is no dimunition of the ltal.

which the Italians say is proceeding
favorably for them, but which the
Austrians declare is meeting with
no success.

EDITORIAL COMMENTS.
Republican Counties.

One of the arguments being
used against Judge Glenn S. Num-,
in his race for the Democratic nomi-
nation for Judge Of the Court of
Appeals, is that he halls from Crit
tenden, small Republican county,
that has never been known to give
Democratic majority. This is not a
fair argument. On the other hand,
it is a recognized fact that there a. e
no truer and more loyal Democrats in
Kentucky than those found in Re-
publican strongholds, where they
must fight for every inch of ground
they gain. Take the Mountain DEM
ocrats for instance. With MAORI
ty of 10000 against them, the DEM
ocrats of the Eleventh district have
maintained a fighting organization
for thirty years without hope of 10
cal rewards in their own counties,
Such men as Jas. B. Black, James
Garnett, Chas. w. Metcalf and Sam
B. Dishman have long been party
leaders, though unable to be
elected to any office in their own
rock.bound Republican counties.
Ollie James, the greatest Senator
Kentucky has had in a generation,
could not have been elected to a
county office in Crittenden as a Dem
ocratic nominee. The point that it is
sought to raise against Glenn Num-,
would take Ollie James out of the
Senate, if one must be "a prophet
with honor at home" and carry his
own county first. 1t would prevent
any citizen of Christian county from
aspiring to office. for Christian coun.
ty Democrats noblest Romans
of them all-must overcome a 1900
Republican majority to win, and yet
they win while the pampered favor
ties of the big Democratic counties.
without opposition often in county
offices, are borne into office on flow
cry beds of ease, and it is not unusu-
al for half of them to stay at home
because local contests do not bring
them out. There is one potent rea-
son why candidates I ON close
\ counties can often strengthen the
ticket. They arouse spirit OF home
pride unknown in counties with top
heavy majorities, who claim poll ical
honors as matter of course. Let
us Judge the candidates by mea.
sure of merit and fitness and not by
the size or political complexion of
their counties. For q state office let
the state be the unit and for dis.
trict office search the whole district
for the best man. Remember the
little state of New Jersey has fur
nished the nation with one of its
greatest presidents.
