100000 BOND ISSUE
LIKELY TO BE VOTED ON
Fiscal Court Fsvors Election on Bond
Issue TO Keep Up Rosds-Pre.-
ent Allotment Too Small.

IL Is not at all unlikely that tho
people Of the good county Of Lincoln
will be called on in the next two or
three months to vote on a bond H.
sue or 100000 With which to keep
up the roads of the county. The
present allotment of about $4,000 IL
insufficient and the members of the
uscal court are united in the belief
that bond issue is necessary. or
the $4,000 that now goes TO the
maintenance of roads, fully $500
rs taken to keep up the dirt roads.
leaving less than $4,000 to keep in
order the 1856 miles of pike. A meet
ing Is called for Thursday to further
consider the bond issue and in the
meantime County Attorney w. 8.
Burch has been commissioned TO get
the legal call for an election in readi-
ness. Quite crowd of taxpayers
were present yesterday when the fis-
cal court considered the proposition.
and its action met the approval of the
majority of them. Senator Charles
+. Montgomery, of Liberty. addressed
the court on the Dixie Short Route.
which it is proposed TO run through
Liberty, Hustonville. Danville and
other towns, and asked that the road
from the Casey line to Hustonville
be put in good condition. Mr..
Montgomery is of the opinion that the
Dixie Short Route is a certainty and
is anxious that the road from his
county of Casey show up good. There
Is sufficient time to discuss the feast
bility of the bond issue after the cleo
tlon has been called and this paper
will then do so from time TO time.

HAMmoND's COUNTRY STORE
WITH CONTENTS BURNED
Big Store on Dsnville Pike Goes Up
In Flames at Early Morning Hour
Believed to Have Seen Robbed.

The large country store on the Dan
VILE pike just beyond Hanging Fork
bridge, belonging to Z. y. Hammonds
the well-known farmer-merchant.
burned TO the ground about 4:3O
Monday morning, together with its
contents, consisting Of about $4,000
worth of goods, according to the
statement of the proprietor. The
building was valued at $1,000. An
insurance policy Of $4,000 with the
insurance firm Of Bromley & Brom-
ley. of this city, is held by Mr.. Ham
monl.. Mr.. Hammonds and his son.
Or. Hammonds, were in Russell coun-
~ at the time. but arrived last night.
In speaking Of the fire, Mrs. Ham
monds said: eve (meaning her
daughter and herself. saw smoke is
suing from the building and ran to
il to see il we could get anything out.
but the flames had reached too great
"a Roadway and we had to stand back
and see our goods burn. We have no
idea how the fire originated, but are
inclined to the belief that the store
was first robbed and then set on fire.
Fresh buggy tracks were seen in front
Of the building. and it may be that
the intruders stepped from the bug
gy to the porch and did their work
and got hack in the vehicle. As LARS
bloodhounds, which we sent for, fail
ed to get a trail. we are inclined to
this theory" The fire was a large
one. and with no fire apparatus to
stop it, there was never andy hope of
eXtinguishing the flames, Mrs. Ham
monds said.
