WILSON FOUND
TO BE GUILTY
Of Bringing Liquor Here for Hire.
Will Appeal Case and Test
New Law

At his trial Saturday in the Mt.
Sterling Police Court, Gay Wilson,
was convicted of bringing liquor in
to dry territory for hire and given
the minimum punishment under the
law of $50 fine and ten days in jail.
Judge Turner then dismissed the six
negroes who were with Wilson, on
the ground that the recent act of the
Legislature was unconstitutional, as
to them. The effect of this decision
is that it is not violation Of the
law, as Judge Turner construes it,
for one to bring liquor here for
ones personal use, but that an ex-
press company, or automobile owner
engaged as a common carrier for
hire, cannot legally transport liquor
from wet to dry territory. Wilson
through his counsel, Hon. w. b.
White, Immediately announced his
intention of appealing the case and
it will come up for re-hearing be-
fore Judge Young at the October
term of the Montgomery Circuit
Court.
The proof was overwhelming that
Wilson solicited the negroes to go,
telling them he had consulted a law
yer and that the law was mconstitu-
tional. Judge Turner ruled that in
bringing liquor here for ones per-
sOnal use if more was brought than
could reasonably be considered for
ones personal use the person could
be prosecuted under the law for
bringing it here for the evident pur-
pose of re-sa.e.
The progress of the case will be
watched with interest and much
credit is due Policemen Scott and
Brockway and Jailer Greer, who
made the arrest, for the vigilant
manner in which they discharged
their duty as officers of the law.

SGT. M'QUEEKEY
DIES SUDDENLY
Was a Veteran Of the Spanish-Amer.
lean War and Had Been in the
Service for 30 Years

Sergeant Michael McQueeney, a
retired army officer, died suddenly
at the home Of his sister, Mrs. Mich
cal Rooney at her home on Elm St.,
in this city last Saturday morning.
Sergeant McQueeney had been in
poor health for some months, bur
his death, coming at the time it did
was entirely unexpected, and was
distinct shock to his many friends
and relatives. Sergeant McQueeney
was in the service for 80 years, was
a hero of the Spanish American war
and was the owner of many valuable
medals, Of which he was justly
proud Since his retirement several
years ago, he had made his home
with his sister, and by his genial
personality and ready wit had won
a warm place in the hearts of all the
citizens of this community. He was
a great lover Of children and was
never happier than when doing some
kind deed to glanden the heart Of
some little one. An optimist by
choice, he was ever looking upon the
bright and sunny side, and no cloud
was ever so black but that the Ser
geant could see beyond its silver
lining. He was known and admired
by practically every man, woman
and child in Mt. Sterling and in re-
cent months had always been on
hand when the boys were leavingto
join the colors and his only regret
was that his age and physical con-
dition were such as to prevent him
from taking a part in the great world
war In the death of Sergeant Me
Queeney, a friend Of man indeed has
been called to face his Maker, but
in his noble and gallant manner the
Sergeant will mob be found wanting
and we feel confident will adorn the
streets Of the Golden City as he did
for so many years the streets of our
own fair little city. May God in His
infinite wisdom give rest to his ash
>es and peace to his soul.
Funeral services were held at the
Catholic church Monday morning
with burial in st. Thomas Cemetery.

LIEUT.. HERE WHO HAS
SPENT MONTHS IN FRANCE

Lieut.. Eugene Stanley, a nephew
of Mr.. w. 7. Tyler and Mrs. Leila
Gillaspie, of this city, was in Mt.
Sterling Monday for a brief visit.
Lieut.. Stanley is in the Engineering
Corps and has been on duty in
France for the past six months,
spending much of his time in the
trenches doing repair work. lie has
been detailed for service in this
country as an instructor and will
be located near Washington, d. C..
He left for that point last night.
Lieut.. Stanley speaks beautifully of
the bravery that the Americans boys
are displaying in the trenches and
states they are all confident of the
ultimate success of allied arms. OF
the French people as a whole, it
seemed he could not praise enough
and said that both the French and
English were looking to America for
sufficient reserves to win the war
In France, he stated, there was
practically no business except that
of war and that on every hand
could be seen troops and heavy ar
tillery being shipped to points where
it was thought the enemy would
probably make an attack. Lieut..
Stanley is an exceedingly interest
ing and brilliant young man and is
rapidly forging his way to the
front as an engineer of rare ability.
