MTERURBAN PROJECT HALTED

Further progress toward the build
ing of the interurban line between
Frankfort and Shelbyville, complet-
ing the last link in interurban con-
nection of Louisville with the Blue
grass, is held up, awaiting the grant
ing of free right-of-way by the
property owners along either one of
the two routes under consideration.
Some of the farmers insisted upon
being paid. Secretary Dunn, of the
Frankfort Chamber of Commerce,
who attended conference in Louis
vile with the engineer, representing
promoters of the road, said that they
were induced to consider the project
through the promise of the Cham
Der of Commerce that the route would
be secured without cost to them, and
if the people along the route, who
will be chiefly benefited, do not give
the right-of-way, the project will be
dropped.

TWO BUILDINGS BURNED.

What threatened for a while to be
disastrous fire was discovered Fri
day afternoon at 4 o'clock on the
roof of the building adjoining the
Oldham Bank & Trust Company
structure, at Lagrange. The roof
was a mass of flames, which rapidly
spread to the residence of M. Mund-

building. The residence was de-
stroyed. The Mundlock bakery,
which adjoins the residence. was saw
ed by the prompt action of the fire

The building in which the fire
originated was occupied on the lower
floor by Wilson's tin shop. The fiat

WARNING.

Insurance men and fire department
on1cials ask that housekeepers look
carefully to CRATES and fues and gas
stove connections before starting up
fires. The season is rapidly approch-
ing when fires will become necessary
in homes and stores, and little
caution in advance will save a visit
from the fire department, and mean
the avoidance of property damage
and loss.
Recent fires have demonstrated the
fact that an accumulation of waste
paper about premises is a positive
menace. All trash and waste paper
Should DO removed and destroyed.
Every proper precaution to avoid the
possibility of fire should be taken in
advance.

SURELY IS A Smooth FELLOW.

Grover Cleveland Morgan, alias
Jim Porter, may justly claim to be a
"slick fellow" or at least he was on
two occasions recently.
The first>was when he, SO it is
alleged by the police, entered the
home of Mr.. E. E. Wood, CT near
Hutchinson, in the absence of the
owner. and without his consent felo
niously removed and carried away
various and sundry diamonds and
other personal property, some OF
which was afterward recovered, and
some OF which remains unrecovered
Morgan denied the theft, but the po-
lice claim to have fastened the crime
upon him conclusively.
Morgan's second claim to be a
smooth man was one night recently
when, as a prisoner in the Paris jail,
he took French leave of Jailer Farris
and his hospitality in slick" way.
By removing his clothes and soaping
his entire body he managed to
squeeze through a narrow opening
not over six and one-half inches in
width between the stones forming the
window of his cell. The stones were
also treated to a liberal application
of soap, making his exit the easier.
Dropping to the court yard he made
his way out of the enclosure,-dnd is
still at large.
Morgan told prisoners in the Jail
that he had been for several years
a contortionist with circus, which
accounts for his ability to squeeze
his body through such narrow open
ing. Jailer Farris is wondering
whether his prisoner went out head
first or feet first. Morgan also told
the prisoners that he and three 9TH
ers had escaped in a similar manner
from the military prison at FIT. Leav-
enworth, Kansas.
An accurate description Of Morgan
was furnished the police and county
officers of all the towns in Central
Kentucky, but so far he has not
been apprehended.
