ENDED HIS
OWN LIFE
John B. Russell In Dependency
Over III Health Shoots
Himself.
DEATH WAS INSTANTANEOUS
Prominent Attorney, Al Years
Old and Was Unmar-
ried.

At an early hour yesterday morn
ing John B. Russell, a prominent at
torney, committed suicide at the
home of his father, on South Main
street. He had not been well for
several days but was down in town
in the early part Of the evening and
after going home sat in his fathers
room until 8 o'clock, chatting as usu-
al. Noting the time, he remarked
that it was his fathers bed time and
got up and went upstairs to his own
room.
About o'clock yesterday morning
his father heard him walking about
and arose and unlocked a door to adj
NIT the cook to the house and went
back to bed as was his custom.
Shortly afterwards pistol shot was
heard in the cellar. Getting up to
investigate Mr.. Russell heard a groan
in the cellar and neighbors were
hastily called. Messrs. j. A. Brown
ing and Harry Yost were the first tC
reach the scene. Mr.. Russell was
found dead in the cellar, to which he
had gone to take his life. Using a
shotgun he had sat down on the floor,
placed the gun between his legs and
shot himself in the mouth, tearing
away all of the left side of his face
and skull and making a horrible
wound that produced almost instant
death.
Mr.. Russell was the oldest son of
Mr.. Jas. d. Russell. He and his
father lived alone in the large Rus
sell home. His mother died several
years ago. A brother, Jas. D. Rus
sell, Jr., lives at Gushing, Okla, and
a sister, Mrs. A. P Crockett, at
Oklahoma City. He was Al years of
age and had for nearly 81 years been

House May Pass By Tonight
the Bill to Increase the
Army.
GIVES TEN HOURS TO DEBATE
Senate Hurrying Its Program
and Army Act May Be Up
to President in Month.

Washington, March 17.-Sweeping
aside intervening issues, congress has
set the stage for prompt action on the
defense measures urgently pressed
by President Wilson since the session
began.
The house voted unanimously for
special rule under which the army in
crease bill will be taken up today
with passage by Saturday night in
prospect. A ten-hour limit for gen.
eral debate was fixed, despite the fact
that the bill is the most far-reaching
military measure ever favorably re-
ported to the body.
The senate military committee COM
pleted its final review of the senate
army increase bill and it is in the
hands of the printer. Senator Cham
berlain, with administration influence
Behind him, will insist that it will be
taken up promptly, displacing the
water power bill now under consid.
GRAFTON unless the latter reaches a
vote in few days.
The senate measure in some re-
spects proposes an even more drastic
change in military policy than is pro-
vided in the house bill.
MAY BE A LAW WITHIN MONTH.
Indications are that the joint con-
ference committee which will adjust
the two bills and frame the final meas
ure will be at work within three
weeks. The Legislative framework
of the army increase project may be
an accomplished fact within another
month.

The United States expeditionary
force, consisting of about 1000 men
under Gen. Pershing, crossed the
Mexican border at noon Wednesday
and began the campaign which, it has
been ordered, must end in the exter-

dered officially by Carranza through
his Minister of War, Gen. Obregon,
was shown by the first defacto troops
which the Americans encountered.
Troops from other posts to take the

President S. L. Cowherd, Of the
PennyrOyal Fair Co., makes the i'm
portant announcement that the fair
this year will be held a month earlier,
or the last week in August The

Franklin-Week of August 1919
Elkton-Week of August Pops.
Hopkinsville-Week of August q
to September 2.
Bowling Green-Week Sept. 3-9.
These dates are regarded as alto
gether suitable in each town. Be-
ginning with Adairville the various
attractions, concessions and exhibits
could 90 from one fair to another

ness. The setting of the dates ear

tary and treasurer. The committee
to draft bylaws and rules was COM
posed of S. L. Cowherd, C. H. Smith,
