Baptist church opened most auspi-
ciOusly Sunday morning. Good
crowds are attending at both morn
ing and evening services. and Evan
gelist O.. E. Bryan, state evangelist
is giving his hearers some old-fash-
Toned religion, straight from the
shoulder, with no compromise with
Psisa, or the devil at any stage of the
proceedings.
In opening the services Sunday
morning he talked on "Old Time Re-
ligion," and that night before a con-
gregation that taxed the capacity IF
the building, as the other churches Of
town dismissed, he took as his sub
ject, "Sin Is Like Fire" and devel-
oped some splendid thoughts during
the discourse. Monday morning at
10 O'Clock his subject was "Backslid-
ing" and that night he spoke on

TROUBLE AT THE MOUNTAIN

Richard Halter, who lives at Kings
Mountain and works for the Q. & C.
was in town Monday. Asked about
the trouble he had with Dock" Pad
gett, of his town, a few nights ago
he said: Some two years ago Dock
Padgett told me not to speak to him
again and | have always passed him
up since. On Sunday night, 12th, he
overlook me on the streets of Kings
Mountains and began to beat me with
his pistol, saying he was going to
kill me. He shot at me several times
but missed me and we grappled. |
tried to get hold of his pistol, when
the weapon went off again, the ball
making flesh wound in my hip. A
man named Lane came up about that
time and separated us. | guess Pad

not caught his hand in which ne held
the weapon" Mr.. Halter was taken

Protect The Pheasants
Says Game Warden Embry, Who
Says They've Multiplied Fast

District Warden Sam j. Embry re-
turned late last week from Casev.
where he put in the week seeing that
the game laws are enforced. Just be-
fore going to Casey he caused the
arrest of Arthur Hopkins, of the Crab
Orchard section Cor hunting without
license. Hopkins was released on $50
bail, which he furnished. Warden
Embruy is certainly on to his job at
all times, and is making violators of
the game laws live hard.
He is especially anxious for the
protection of the English pheasants,
which have shown up fine in their
breeding results during the year and
half since they have been liberated
IN this section. Reports to the Game
Warden are that these birds have
multiplied until there are three or
four times as many as were original
ly turned out. The penalty for killing
any of them or having them in pos
session, is very severe.
The best hunting season since the
creation of the commission is the pre-
diction of j. G. Ward, executive agent
of the Kentucky Game and Fish Com
mission, concerning the hunting sea-
son, which opened last Wednesday.
There will be chance for a mixed
bag, which is pleasing to the average
sportsman" said Mr. Ward. 81 don't
know when quail has been so plenti-
full and well distributed and there
are many rabbits, jacksnipes and
squirrels"

Keenon INDICATED
By Unprecedented Democratic Ma
jority For Wilson This Year

Clerk of the Court of Appeals Rod
man W. Keenon, of Frankfort, spent
Sunday in Stanford, with his brother
in-law, DR.. T. w. Pennington. Mr..
KeenOn who is one of the most pOpu-
lar state officials at Frankfort, at
tanned state wide nOtOriety recently
by his refusal to submit to the STAN
ley whisky rings demands that it
be allowed to name all of the county
election commissioners in the state.
How well Mr.. Keenon's judgment and
action in this matter was indicated
is shown by the returns from the re-
cent election in Kentucky when this
state gave Wilson, the largest demo-
cratic majority in a presidential race
in a quarter of a century. Mr.. Keenon
has been widely congratulated and
commended for the nerve and back
bone he displayed on that occasion,
and his friends are saying that moth
ing is too good for him, should he
ask any further honors from his par
ty.
Before leaving Frankfort, he called
a meeting of the State Election Com
mission of which he is chairman for
November p for the purpose of can
vassing the returns of the election of
November 7.
Although II counties have not re-
ported their official vote, the 10
counties that have reported show that
the vote of both parties cast this
year is largely in excess of that cast
in 1912.
The counties that have not report
ed officially are Henderson, Marion,
Kenton, Clark, Rowan, Knott, Perry,
Clay, Laurel, Pulaski and Whitley.
The Republican vote in Todd county
is missing.
The total vote for Wilson returned
so far is 239.575 votes, as against a
vote of 219,5S4 in 1912. The total
vote for Hughes so far is 211,72S,
as against vote of 21S,279, the COM
bined vote of the Progressives and
Republicans in 1912. The indications
are that the vote this year will ex-
coed the vote of 1908, which totaled
479,8O3.

Gives Up Political Job
Capt. Joe L. Coffey To Go On Road
For Big Lead House

Capt. Joe Lynn Coffey, who has
been clerk of the Frankfort peniten-
tiary for several years, last week ten
dered his resignation to the Board of
Prison Commissioners, and will ac-
cept nice position on the road for a
large lead manufacturing house the
first of December. Capt. Coffey, his
wife and young son spent Sunday
here with his father, Col. Joseph Cof-
fey and was congratulated by his
many friends .'back home" upon re-
ceiving such desirable position, and
getting away from a purely political
place. Capt. Coffey has faculty of
making friends, and is good mixer.
He has made one of the most eff
cIent clerks the that prison ever had,
and his place will be hard to fill. 1t
is probable that he will travel through
the south considerably, having his
headquarters in Cincinnati, where the
main factory Of his house is located,
and being compelled to make his
home at some point in Ohio
The Prison Board has not yet an
nounced the name of the successor
to Capt. Coffey. Friends of June
Givens, son of Col. B. W. Owens, of
the Hubble section, are urging him
for the place. The board will appoint
whomever Gov. Stanley suggests to
it, and the governor will certainly
reward a faithful friend, who has led
his fight and stood to him at all
times, by appointing the SON of Mr..
Owens to the place, for which his
name has been mentioned. Young
Givens is fine young man, and is
well qualified for the clerkship. The
position pays 500 a month.

FELL AND BROKE HIP

Mrs. E. D. Kennedy, wife of the
County Assessor, sustained very
serious accident Friday night when
she slipped on the sidewalk on the
south side of Main street on the
block between the St. Asaph hotel
and Severance's Store, and broke her
left hip. She was taken to her home
on Hustonville street and given every
medical attention, but necessarily the
injury is a very painful one and hard
to handle. Mrs. Kennedy was taken
to the hospital at Danville early this
week for treatment. A number of
other similar accidents have occurred
at almost the exact place where Mrs.
Kennedy was injured. Col. w. P.
Walton, now of Lexington, broke a
limb there a number of years ago,
and others have fallen there since.

EMBRY SHOWS UP WELL.

If Centre College had used Sam ].
Embry, of Stanford, at left end all
during the game against Transylva-
MIA University last Friday afternoon,
the Danville boys might have won the
game instead of only holding the T..
U. eleven to to game. The Cen
tire coach, with a painful lack of
speed on his squad, kept Embry, a
10O-yard record man, and real live
wire on the bench until the latter
part of the last quarter. Arnett, the
big star for T. u, nearly won the
game by himself, yet the first scrim-
mage Embry got into after he was
put in the lineup, he broke through
interference and threw Arnett be-
hind his line. A great crowd was
present, and it was a finely fought
game from start to finish.

Big Fire At Pineville
Proves Disastrous Because Water
Supply Was Cut OFF

Shortly after midnight Sunday the
| office, StoreroOm and lumber sheds
OF the Rice Lumber Company at Pine
vile were destroyed by fire together
with the residence of R. B. Rice. On
account of lack of water the loss was
total. The Pineville water company
recently was indicted on evidence
furnished by the State Board of
Health and was charged with furnish
ing its patrons with polluted water.
The case went to trial Thursday of
last week and Saturday afternoon the
jury returned a verdict, filming the
company one cent. The company Of
flclais at 10 o'clock Saturday night
shut down the water plant leaving
the city without water for either pub
lie or domestic use.
AS consequence, when the fire
alarm was sounded there was no wa
ter on hand to fight the fire. Later
the water was turned on. but not un-
til the property of the lumber com
pany had been DESTROYED. However
other property which caught fire was
saved. The water company is under
contract to Pineville to furnish wa
ter Tor fire protection, and the con-
was lOICS Wllell us plant was
shut down.
1t is said those who lost in the fire
will bring suit against the water
company to recover the amount of
their losses. Pineville was without
water and great inconvenience has
been experienced, especially by hotels
and the hospitals.
The company was chartered by the
Legislature and began operations
about 1890. 1t is practically owned
by ID: B. Logan, of Pineville, and
Louis Descognets, of Lexington.
The loss of the Rice Lumber Com
pany is estimated at $1,000, with
small insurance. r. B. Rice's loss on
residence is $1,000 with insurance of
$500: The Hurst livery stable suf-
fered damage to the amount of about
$500. The City Council met in extra
ordinary session late Sunday after
noon and an agreement was reached
with the company and the water SER
vice was again resumed at 5 o'clock.
