JAS. BARHAM ACCIDENTALLY
 SHOT IN HAND

About two o'clock this afternoon James Barham happened to an acci- dent which will probably result in a badly crippled hand. It seems that some paper caught fine in the kitchen and Mrs Barham noticing it became excited an ran into the room where MT. Barham was asleep. He was ly- ing on bed with his hand hanging over the side. Mrs. Barham in some way knocked shot gun down, which was discharged, the shot taking effect in MT. Barham's hand, almost severing his thumb from his left hand and in- turing the hand in other ways. He was attended by physicians who ad- min,stered chloroform to treat the wounded hand.

Nevada county captured the first prize for the best arranged county ex- hibit at the Hampstead county fair last year and it is pretty safe propo- sition that she is going after the pen nant again this year. Crops here are superb and the live ones are going to work hard to put it over Hampstead. Still, there are quite a number of people besides John Gibson, in the State of Arkansas, who think this is the identical spot where Mother Eve was the victim of the apple. They claim that it took Hampstead coun- ty apple to do the trick.

PROHIBITION BILL
THAT HITS THE
CAPITOL'S CAKE
(By United Press AssOciatiOn.)

WASHINGTON, D. Feb. 1.-THE
Washington man who keeps bay rum
for his hair and the housewife who
puts vanilla in the angle cake are both
likely to be visited by the Metropoli-
tan police if Senator Sheppard's pro-
hibition bill for the District of Column
bia becomes a law.
The bill now before the Senate is
regarded by dry authorities as the
most thorough comprehensive, iron
bound, steel riveted lid ever devised.
The residents of the District have no
vote or say as to whether they wish
to venture upon so complete drought
It's all up to Congress.
The bill not only prohibits the manu-
facture of liquor, sale or giving away
of liquor, but it provides that the
mere possession of liquor shall be
deemed sufficient evidence to convict
a person of selling it.
Search of any premises may be
made upon informal complaint. Dis
covery of liquor on the premises will
void the lease and give the owner the
right to eject the occupant. Common
carriers are prohibited bringing al
coholic beverages into the district.
Any scheme or device to evade the
law shall be regarded the same as the
sale of liquor The keeper of liquor
may be restrained as a common MUS
ance, according to the proposed regu-
lation.

To obtain wine for sacramental pur-
poses priests and ministers are re-
quired to make APPLICATION to the Dis
trict Comisioners, specifying for what
sacramento purposes the wine is nece-
ssary, and how long the quantity ap-
piled for will last.
The Commissioners, before grant
ing a permit, which will cost 25 cents,
must satisfy themselves that the facts
are correct. Such wine will then be
allowed to be imported, but must be
delivered at the church betW cen in
the morning and in the evening.
The sale of any liquor containing
more than II of l per cent of alcohol
is forbidden and subject to all the
other restrictions of the bill. This
is understood 10 include perfumery,
flavoring extracts, proprietary medi-
cines, prescriptions and similar pre-
parations containing more than this
amount of alcohol.
