NOW SEE WHAT YOU'VE DONE!
YOU'VE TURNED LOOSEA POET

girls are just as honest as they should
be, they'll tell you the same thing
I've never seen a 'swifter' bunch of
fellows than the ones you have here"
AS was feared by The News when
the controversy fret started, that
some one would burst into poetry be-
fore the matter is finally decided, the
worst has come. Here it is; signed
by "Old School Boy"
Hello. Central, give me Tommy,
Tommy Edison, mean;
He's wanted now for a job that's
bonny,
And very popular, | ween.
We have phones called Graph and tel.
| And Dist, but phones are lacking
For apho-Tele- -Dicta-We
We need the ones for smacking.
Invention needs a wissaphone,
| For sweethearts gone away.
Then never need one be alone
With home boys there to stay.
And the little girl in all this whirl
To whom they are alluding,
Could send smack and get one back
Without at all intruding.
The inventors fame would reach {
height
Than Edison's more dizzy.
But all his lines from morn to night
4 Would always be Lines Busy"

Black Face Chief
MeyerS NOW Pinch
Hitting on Streets
GIANTS CATCHER NOW PATCH
ING SIDEWALKS.

A black-face Chief Meyers is what
Hosie Williams intended making out
of himself, and he was we'll on the
road toward being one of the greatest
baseball catchers in Dixie, when the
minions of the law stepped in and
brought his career to a sudden close
today.
Instead of catching signals from a
southpaw in the middle of a diamond,
while a cheering crowd of dusky fans
stand off and give victorious, Hosie
is taking instructions from a guard
who is teaching him how to make lit
tie ones out of big ones and to repair
the city streets. In other words,
Hosie is pinch hitting in Commission
Capertons street gang league.
G. H. Galloway left a bran new
catcher's nit in a Front street barber
shop the other day, and it disappear
ed. No one knew what happened to
it, Chief Bennett was called upon to
help unravel the mystery. He located
the NIT, and then traced it back to
Hosie, would be understudy of Chief
Myers, of the New York Giants. All
the details of the loss of the glovs
were made public in police court to-
day, after which Mayor Batson fined
Hosie s. and costs and sent him out
to do that much work on the city
streets az payment.

London, June 29.-The Russian
armies are neither beaten nor
downhearted, according to the cor
respondent of The London Times,
at Russian headquarters.
"The view held here" he says,
"is that the capture of Lemberg
and other Galician successes have
brought the Austro-Germans no
nearer solution of the great war.
Their losses have been enormous,
and are estimated at $4,000 Ger
mans and an equal number of
Austrians. The Russians declare
they can retreat and adavnce
again indefinitely.
Their object is to weaken the
adversary, and to prevent a trench
deadlock such as exists on tha
western and Warsaw fronts.

Another violent windstOrm accom-
panied by light fall of rain, swept
Forrest county last night, doing no
little damage to the growing crops,
and damaging property more or less
throughout the community.
The storm came from the North. 1t
was of but short duration, but left in
it's wake a greater amount of wreck
ape than that of last Tuesday night,
which so thoroughly frightened the
population.
The huge 5O-foot smOkestack above
the shops of the Mississippi Central
railroad, was blown down during the
height of the gale, and sent crashing
to the earth, striking the small oil
house nearby, breaking the roof OF
that structure The stack itself was
not seriously damaged.
It will be two or three days before
the stack is replaced. In the mean
time power is being obtained from the
J. ]. Newman Lumber company.
No Lives Endangered.
4he erash came at about 2 O'Clock.
There was no one in either she rsls
road shops or the oil house except tne
ntght watchman.
Reports from various parts q tae
county tell of damage to corn which
is nearing maturity, large quantities
of which were broken off.
The storm was not a local one
From all over the northern and north
eastern part of the State today re

n,aved havoc with the telephone ano
taleqraph wires of that city, all teie
oranh connections with the South
and the West having been broken.
Throughout the State heavy rains
fell. The growing crops, however
were in need of these.

Endorses Woodrow Wilson.

GNuOIoCS "OOdIOW VHSOus
Now, in conclusion: The Democrat
ic ticket is led by princely states
man whose ability and achievements
are comparable with those of a Wood
row Wilson, an Ollie James, or any
of the greatest Democrats of this age,
or any other age. The fact that the
Republican nominee for Governor
would stoop so low as to direct his
attacks, and all of his lieutenants to
direct their attacks at the insignifi-
cant office of State Superintendent of
Public Instruction is indicative of the
fact that they are desperate and know
not where to turn, nor how to form
their lines for an attack.
Morrow's Doom Is Sealed.
The fact of the business is, Mr. Nor
row, and every man on his ticket,
realizes and recognizes, and acknowl-
edges already, ignominious defeat, and
by their mad attacks upon the bull
wark OIL the commonwealth, the pub
lie school system. they evidence the
fact, and VIGOROUSLY parade the fact,
that their attitude is retrogressive in
alFthings and especially in this one
great business of the State. Mr. Nor
row sealed his doom in his first attack
in his speech at Bowling Green. A
man of such low ideals, and of so small
conceptions of what a great common
wealth should be and how it should
be developed, is not fit to be the nomi-
nee even for the great Office of school
trustee, in this State. The Republi-
cans, even of the most radical type,
condemn him for his unwarranted,
fimsy attacks, based on hypocrisy and
the intense desire to get an office.
Too Far Advanced to Consider
Hypocrisy.
| tell you again, my fellow citizens,
that the people of Kentucky have ad-
vanced too far to consider such cant
and hypocrisy. Their homes are too
dear, and their love for "the little red
school house ana the church by the
wayside" is too pure to listen to a
man, or set of men, who would prosti-
tute what should be better ideals to
cause, and an attempt so low.
