GEORGE BOHON
DIES in MERCER
Brother of DIR. Tom Bohon of West
End and One of Wealthiest and
Leading Citizens of This Part

George BOhon one of the wealth.
est citizens of Mercer county, we'll
known in Lincoln county, died at his
home in Harrodsburg at / o'clock
Monday morning. Mr.. Bohon was
IS years of age, and his death was
caused by acute Indigestion. He had
been in poor health for three weeks.
Soon after his arrival home from At
lanta, two weeks ago, he was taken
East, where he consulted physicians.
1t was decided that an operation was
not Immediately imperative, and he
returned home. SINCE his arrival in
Harrodsburg he believed he was i'm
proving. He is survived by his wild
ow, his daughter, Mrs. John H. Rain,
and two sons, Davis and Hanly Be-
hons, both of whom are in business
in Harrodsburg. He was born in
Mercer county and lived there all his
life.
Mr.. Bohon was a member of the
Christian church. Mrs. Scott Hud-
son, of Atlanta, is a sister and Ra-
ney Bohon, of Decatur, ILL.,, Dr. Tom
Bohon, of Hustonville, and Will b.
hon of Gadsden, Ala, are brothers.
Mr.. Bohon was president of the b.
hon Buggy Manufacturing Company,
and in this business he amassed quite
fortune, which he invested in Mer-
Ger and Harrodsburg enterprises. He
was president of the Mercer National
Bank, a member of the School Board
and was closely identified with num-
erous smaller bushes enterprises.
For years he took a great inter
est in the Mercer county colony of
the Society of Shakers, whose ranks
were being rapidly thinned. He
made many fast friends among the
Shakers, and five years ago, in con-
of his caring for the sew
en- or eight remaining members of
the colony for the balance of their
lives, he was decided one-half of the
many acres of rich soil owned by
the society. This he was to have out
right upon the death of the last men,
Der of the colony. The remainder is
owned by DIR. William Pennybaker,
q member of the colony,.swhbse ne
phew, Elliott Pennybaker, is an at
torney of Louisville. Since Mr.. Be-
hon made this agreement all men,
bers of the colony, except four, have
died. His share of the property is
variously estimated at from one-half
to three-quarters of a million dol
lars.

FIRST DEFEAT OF SEASON
Deaf Boys Nine Win Over Stanford

rudely shattered Friday. The ball

Hoped the stuffin' out our lads at
Danville that afternoon by the score
of 5 to 1. The tale is soon told |:
Stanford was UP against some real
pitching and was only able to nick
Miller, on the slab for the mutes,
for three safeties. The home team
found Bill Reinhart to their liking,
however, and early in the game piled
over their runs. The derrick had to
be applied to the kid pitcher, and
Joe Embry, who is the most versatile
player on the team, went into the
box, and held the mutes to only one
hit for the remainder of the game.
Embry showed high class as a twirler
and will undoubtedly be used in flu
ture games.
The strong Eastern State Normal
team of Richmond plays here this
afternoon, and hot combat will un-
doubtedly be seen. Stanford nosed

days ago by hard work. The score

IMPORTANT TO TAXPAYERS

Before you vote on the bond issue
Saturday, read carefully the follow
ing:
The present bonded debt of Lin
coin county is S35, $4,000 which
bears interest at the rate of A &c per
annum, amounting to $1,43200 in
terest each year. This debt con-
sists of SS,OOO.OO of turnpike bonds
and $31,500.0O of Court House
bonds nearing total of $50, 10000
with $4,000 in the sinking fund
leaving a net bonded debt of $685.
800.00.) Of the debt remaining
S8,0O0.O0 is the residue of the $751;
100000 bond issue of 1898, for the
purchase of pixies. The assessed val
ue of property of Lincoln county,
amounts to $4,000 100000, the levy
for road purposes is 25 cents on the
$4,000 which amounts to an annual
tax of S22, 10000. and the State aid
is cents on the $4,000, which
amounts to S4,500.00, making a to-
tai of S27, 100000 available annually
to be spent on the roads of Lincoln
county to maintain, repair and ditch
same and build, maintain and re-
pair bridges and culverts and pay
ing interest and creating sinking
fund.
The proposed bond issue is for
$2OO,000.00. 1t is not known what
interest they can bear, but say they
are floated at 48o, then there would
be $8,000.00 interest on those bonds
and 100000 each year to be set
aside to the sinking fund with the
interest on the $8,OOO.O0 old bonds,
making a total of $13,320.00 to be
set aside before there could be any
money spent to maintain the pixies
and bridges.
In the past five years the average
expenditure on the roads of Lincoln
county has been 100000 annual
ly.
This would leave for annual main
tenance, the sum of S13,6S0.0O, or
the other would reduce the usual
amount of money spent on our roads
to one half for maintaining them.
The Fiscal Court only has the right
to increase taxes for road purposes
20 cents on the $4,000.

trampled him with his sharp hOofs.
Mr.. Moore had gone into a field to
separate the bull from a bunch Of
steers. The bull was of the short
horn type, which is not usually fierce
like Jersey. Before he could de-
fend himself or flee, the animal at
tackled him, struck him down, and

HOPKINS "BOYS"
TOOK" c. 0.
Bad Whiskey Causes East End Young
Men to Get Trifle Gay-Of-
hcers Go After Them.

Deputy Sheriff w. S. Drye, and
Chief of Police B. d. Carter, of
Stanford, went to Crab Orchard
Tuesday morning with warrants for
James, Leonard, John and Yewell
Hopkins and Blain Skidmore, who
were charged by prominent citizens
of the East End capital with "tak-
ing the town" there Saturday.
According to reports brought here
by men from the East End Monday,
the Hopkins boys, pretty well satu-
rated with bad whiskey, rode into
town from their homes out in the
Green Briar section, near Dripping
Springs, and began creating a dis
turbance in town. When Marshal
Hamilton arrested one of them, the
others, forcibly took him away from
the officer, took the officer prisoner
themselves and threatened to lock
him up in the city calaboose if he
became obstreperous. After fighting
around the corner of Main and
Stanford streets a while, they got
in their wagon with the one whom
they had rescued from the officer,
and went home. Their father Joe
Hopkins, and their brothers, George
and Joe, are said not to have been
mixed up in the affair in any way,
and to have done everything in their
power to quiet the troublesome fell
lows and get them out of town. The
father is a respected and quiet cit
izen of the East End. One of the
boys is said to have been the man
who slew the marshal at Berea some
time ago and is to be tried for muir
der in circuit court at Richmond this
week.
Several of them were working in
Gus GeiszPs road force last week,
and they knocked off work Satur-
day about noon. One report said
that they got in eight quarts of
whiskey Friday night and when they
quit work Saturday, had put most
of it away so that they are feeling
its effects considerably by the time
they got to town.
Citizens swore out warrants for
the men at once, and an effort was
made to arrest some of them at the
road works Monday, but when they
saw officers coming, they took to the
brush. Deputy Sheriff Drye and Of
ficer Carter hope to land them today.
One of the Hopkins boys, called ''Lit-
tie joe" lost his home and two lit
tie daughters by fire a short time
ago. He was not concerned in the
trouble at Crab Orchard in any way.
