A GOOD RECORD.

Uncle Ben" Evans who is here at
tending the Teachers Institute for the
'steenth time has perhaps taught over
a logger period of time than any rural
school teacher in Kentucky. He taught
his hrst school in 1865 and has continu-
ed since then with few breaks. He has
had under the way of his switch and
rule 2643 children and in one family has
taught three generations. Truly. there
is no better public .servent than the
country school teacher.

mark: The man who grows up in his

his elders until he is well started down

The stranger who comes into a place
is more often pushed to the front than
the Young man who has grown up

so many young men become dissatisfied

MAN WHO SHOT MORGAN TO REVEAL MOTIVE
IN OPEN COURTS IN MENTAL COLLAPSE

GlencoVe, N. Y, July 6.-Frank
Holt, the university professor who
shot J. P. Morgan Saturday, is on
the verge of a complete collapse, due,
it is declared, to the strenuous third
degree to which he has been subject
ed and the wound in his head made
by MOrgan's butler with a shovel at
the time of the shooting. Holt has
said he will reveal in open court his
motive in attempting the life of the
financier and his placing Of the bomb
in the capitol at Washington.
He will also tell where he purchas-
ed the dynamite found on him, &C
cording to Dr.. Guy CIeghorn, the Jail
physician, who says, however, that
owing to Hollis condition it is hardly
probable he will be able to appear in
court tomorrow.
Morgan spent a restful day yester-
day and bulletins issued from his
home declared his condition improv-
ing.
The attempt to connect Frank
Holt with Erich Muenter, wife muir
derer in 1906, is meeting considerable
success. Erich Muenter who disap-
peared in April, 1906, Immediately
following the discovery that his wife,
whose body had been cTemated at his
request, had died of aTsenical pOis-
oning, was at that time an instructor
and student of German philolOgy in
Harvard university. Frank Holt was
a German instructor at Cornell and
other universities.
Erich Muenter, professor of Ger
man at Harvard, was a deep student
of the occult; Frank Holt says he was
told by God to force Morgan to cease
extending loans to the allies and thus
prOIOnging the war. Muenter was re-
garded as eccentric by his friends and
associates; Holt was regarded as &C.
centric by his friends.
MUenter believed that immortality
