the death in Louisville of Capt. j.
Mat Lowe. who was in the employ of
the L. & n. railroad since 1857 up
to ten years ago, when he was retired
on a pension, given by that great
CORPORATION. For tweny or more years
Capt. Lowe ran passenger train by
Stanford and he is remembered as be-
ing one of the most courteous conduc-
tors on the system. He knew almost
everybody and had a cordial greeting
for all who road on his train. "Good

CHG FOOT" SAYS
HE HIT DOTSON
And Claims He Was Justified In Do
ing So-Examining Trial OF Ne
gro Set For Thursday

big Foot" John Engleman, admits
that he is the man who knocked Nit
chell Dotson, Waynesburg cattle man,
unconscious, on Macksville street
Saturday night about a month ago.
Chief of Police B. D. Carter brought
Engleman in from Lebanon, where
he was caught last Thursday night,
and the negro admitted to him, the
Chief says, that he struck Dotson,
but claims that he was justified in
doing so.
The negro was brought before
County Judge Bailey for his examin-
ing trial Monday morning but said
that he was not ready, and the case
went over until Thursday morning. 1t
is expected that he will be held over
to the grand jury, without going into
testimony, on the part of the COM
monwealth as Dotson is still in the
Danville hospital, recovering from the
operation which was made upon his
skull with the hope of saving his life.
According to Chief Carter, the ne
gro says that he met Dotson on Macks-
vile street late the Saturday night in
question, and that Dotson demanded
that Engleman go and bring him a
certain woman. Engleman says he
refused to do so, whereupon Dotson
called him "son of a b." and En-
gleman says he then picked up a
piece of timber that was handy and
struck Dotson over the head. When
Dotson sank to the ground unconsci-
Gus, the negro ran away. Dotson's
testimony, when is able to give it,
will undoubtedly be heard with inter-
est, in view of the defense that the
negro sets up, in what was considered
at first blush, very bad case.

SHERIFF'S RACE
Well Known West End Democrat
And Present Chief Deputy Sher-

The Interior Journal is authorized
to announce w. S. Drye as candi-
date for the Democratic nomination
for Sheriff of Lincoln county, sub
ject to the primary the first Saturday
in August 1917. Mr.. Drye is too well
known all over Lincoln to need any
introduction in connection with the
announcement of his candidacy. Ever
since attaining his majority he has
been one of the Understanding dem
ocrats of the West End of the coun-
ty, being a resident of Hustonville.
He has served as chief deputy under
Sheriff j. G. Weatherford and has
made many new friends over the
county, who are very loyal to him and
will undoubtedly rally strongly to his
banner in the Forthcoming race. In
making his announcement, Mr.. Drye
issues the following card to the dem
ocrats of Lincoln county:
To The Democrats of Lincoln County

my candidacy for sheriff of Lincoln

No Trace OF Reed Boy
Lad Left Home Three Weeks Ago
Without Overcoat or Overshoes

c. R. Reed, on the Danville pike,
was in town Monday and says that
not word or report of any kind has
been heard from his little 14-year-
old son, Charles Morgan Reed, who
has been mysteriously missing from
home for over three weeks now. Mr..
Reed was in Danville again last week
interviewing the negro who says he
bought the boys bicycle, who he
claims told him, he was going to
board train for Cincinnati. Mr..
Reed is of the opinion that the negro
knows more about his sons disap-
pearance than he has told. The ne
gro had sawed off the handle bars of
the machine and had otherwise dis
guised it. Mr.. Reed says that he could
give no satisfactory reason for doing
so.
Mrs. Reed is still almost Frustrated
over the disappearance of her little
son. That he had no thought of leav-
ing home permanently is felt by all of
the family. The lad had even told his
mother the kind of pie that he wanted
her to cook for dinner the next day.
He was lightly dressed and took no
overcoat or overshoes with him, so
unless he found a job Immediately,
he is bound to be suffering this sort
OF weather. Mr.. Reed cannot get the
idea out of his head that the lad new
er left Danville. He believes that if
the child had, he would have commun-
icated with his folks before this. He
is very apprehensive that his little
son was foully dealt with in some
way. The police of Danville are Civ
ing him every assistance possible, he
says, but so far no clews have been
discovered which would give any in
dication of his whereabouts, The case
is certainly a mysterious one.

LOOK OUT, HUNTERS

Hunters had better beware of New
Years Day. Sportmen who go out
New Years Day after quail should
make resolution to get 1917 hunt
ing license or they will be liable to
arrest. The licenses expire Dec 81,
but the quail season lasts twenty-four
hours longer and there are no days
of grace on a State license. Another
good resolution would be to abstain
from shooting at rabbits; for, while it
is clear that quail may be shot Janu-
airy 1, the law does not clearly indi-
cate that it is legal to shoot rabbits.

$1,000 Damage Verdict
Against L. & N. In One OF Paint
Lick Flood Damage Cases

One of the much-talked-of Paint
Lick damages cases against the L. &
N. railroad was decided in the Gar
rard circuit court last week when
George Conn, of Paint Lick was
awarded $1,000 damages against the
railroad. Mr.. Conn sued the railroad
for damages resulting from recon-
struction of bridge over Paint Lick
creek causing water to overflow his
property. The L. & N. fought every
inch of the ground, having MANY at
torneys to assist the company attor-
ney there.
Mrs. Mckechnie Wins Suit.
Judgment was also rendered last
week against the Central Life Insur-
ance Company of Lexington in the
sum of $4,000 in favor of Mrs. Will
liam McKechnie, whose husband died
about year ago, carrying on his life
a policy for the amount, naming his
wife the beneficiary. The company
resisted payment on the ground that
the insured was not fit subject ply
sically at the time the application was
taken.

Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1916-09-07

In an article in the New York Sun
writer describing Hawaii tells of
the lure of the strange things and
mentions in his story that the people
OF Hawaii wear clothes and that the
law is the same as in other sections
The article which goes under the title
of Real Hawaii" follows:
The Victrola's most insistent CON
tention, in our own neighborhood, at
least, is that of all delectable places
in which to live, TO love and to die,
Hawaii is the prize taker. Hawaii
Honolulu, Waikiki Fishigoola, Manis-
tikiEall of those village communities,
which are also evidently the most per-
feet of beach resorts, are carolled
forth into the night either by some
band of yahooing singers or by lady
soloist who left her lover--a native
prince behind her, sitting there on
tho beach
All this music is very enjoyable to
listen to, except as regular diet, and
even better to dance to, but it cannot
but have an injurious effect upon the
popular mind. For every time the
record of the hula hula or the song
about telephoning with the endless
helloes winds its weary way to the
final fox trot, the young and impress
sionable mind is once more swayed
by the conviction that all places are
dull places, except Hawaii = the
tropical heaven, where one can lie
all day on a beach and not be bother
ed by the awful perplexities that must
be faced while earning living. So
that all those romantic young people
who formerly wanted to go to Alaska
or British Columbia to seek gold or
furs-or even to Wyoming-have now
turned all their heads to the land
hose music has turned their feet.
Some of the more practical ones
have some thoughts of teaching school
or of going into the civil service
anything to get there. L.. -. ~
Far be it from us who have never
been to Hawaii to kin anyone's en-
thusiasm. But if Honolulu, aside from
the sheltering gardens, which the
American youth could not fail to rec
cgEize, because they predominant on
the covers of the popular sheet music,
and the particular hueness of the sea
and the sky, is any different from any
ether part of the world, we should
like to know it. But it is our sus-
pieion that the famous beach at Wal
kiki might soon become as garish and
as firing as Brighton, unless one had
always the artists eyes for the ever
changing colors that the sun and
moon alike can splash over the sur
face of the sea- But not many young
foxtrotters have a fair for that mild
enjoyment-one can look at that from
the Battery. g., ~ .......... .
Disillusioning as it may be, We must
urge the fact that there are few
places left on the earth where one
can lead a savage, romantic life, and
remain outside of the county jail. even
at Waikiki-we would be willing to
bet-the authorities have passed laws
prohibiting the twanging Of the u-ku-
la-i at certain hours, and most heart
breaking, of all, that supposedly pri-
mitiye resort may even have its wei.

Educational League Formed to
Solve Problem of Film
Shows for Youngsters
fcoutributed.l

The series of children's matinees
to be held on Friday afternoons at
the Liberty theater bids fair to be a
big event in the annals of the motion
picture circles of Honolulu. Several
weeks of active work has accomplish
ed the organization and development
of an educational league in whose
plan the movies are to play an i'm
portant part Thanks to the cordial
cooperation of the manager of the
Liberty the project is now ready to
be placed before the Honolulu public,
There has been much discussion
along these lines in almost all the
mainland cities and perhaps there has
been the feeling that Honolulu has
been slow In recognizing the advan-
tage Of the movies" in the education
of the children. Our extreme distance
from the source of film supply, lie
rental of the films, which has to COW
er at least three weeks, two-thirds of
which is spent in travel. are some of
the reasons why this particular plan
has its difficulties.
In Los Angeles and environs the
children's shows have proven an I'M
qualified success and hopes are enter
tanned that similar result may be
attained here, and great emphasis
will be placed upon the enthusiasm
and attendance of the first audience.
Candid criticism from the children
and parents viii be welcome, for it
win be the ambition of the league to
