Had A Fine Trip

Messrs. S. S. Andrews, Milton An
drews, Edward Drennen and L.Philip
Skinner made a trip to Elkton and
Aberdeen, and from reports it was
| some trip" The party left Cam
bridge about 7.30 Saturday morning
in S. S. Andrews automobile, and
went without stop to Elkton, where
they were met by S. Ralph Andrews
and others connected with Charles
town Sand and Stone Company, and
entertained at luncheon. The early
part of the afternoon was spent view
| ing the extensive plant of the Com
pany, which is operating under gov
eminent supervision, and running on
continuous schedule, eighty men be-
ing employed at present, and from
35 to so cars of stone are shipped ev-
cry day. The Government is using
greater part of the material in build
ing forts for coast defense.
After leaving the Charlestown
plant, our friends motored to Aber-
deem, and were entertained by OIL
GERS at the Proving Grounds. 1t was
great sight to see the thousands of
soldiers drilling, hundreds OF Army
trucks rushing to and fro. while air.
planes lowered over head. 1t looked
like real war and no mistake. Hun
dreds of fine homes are being erected
along the water front, and thousands
of working men are as busy as bees.

SEVENTY THREE MEN
| TO LEAVE TONIGHT

Another Contingent of Selected Men
To Leave on The Boat Tonight
County Has Furnished One Hum
bred And Th;rty-Nine in The Last
Few Days.
Another lot of selected men leave
on the B., C. G. A. steamer tonight,
enroute for Camp Meade, where they
will go into training. There were
sixty-seven colored men to leave last
week and these, with the seventy-two
to leave tonight, make a total of
one hundred and thirty-nine to leave
within very short time.
The calling of the men at this
time is in accord with the Allied poll
cy of rushing every man possible to
the Western front at this time, so as
to be in a position to take advantage
of the great break in the German
lines when it does come. Reports
from Berlin recently have indicated
that the German higher command
contemplates the erection of great
fortresses on the border of Germany,
but with the guns which the Ameri-
cans are building the reduction of
such forts will occupy but short
time, hardly enough to stop the
march of the victorious armies.
When the time for the grand as
sault comes, it will be possible for
the Allies to shell and reduce these
forts, while the armies are from flf-
ty to one hundred mimles back, guns
having such ranges having already
been designed ana built. These, cou-
pied with the airplane squadrons, OF
which there will be hundreds, Will
make the invasion of Germany a
comparatively easy task for the Al
lied armies. In the meantime, while
the guns and airplanes are being got
ten together, the Allied governments
are assembling a huge force of men,
who will follow up the destruction or
the forts and cities by the pressing
back and destruction of the enemy
armies.

FAIR OPENS UNDER
FAVORABLE CONDITIONS

Large Crowd Came on Steame
: Observation-Disclosures Last Night I'm
proves Weather Situation Ant
Lays The Dust.
The Dorchester County Fair open
ed this morning under the most aus
picious circumstances; the weather
has been extremely warm for the
past two or three days and lasi
night rain and some wind came alOE :
just in time to cool things off anG
make today very pleasant one. The
rain also laid the dust around the
grounds and on the track so that
visitors at the Fair will not be trou-
bled with that very disagreeable fea-
ture this year.
There is an unusually large num-
Der of horses here, and the outlook
lis for some exceptionally exciting
races, as the purses are good, and all
of the entrants will be anxious to
win. The track is in fine shape and
the horses that were being trained
this morning were able to make fine
time.
Out in the exhibition hall there
was an air of hustle and hustle such
as is customary upon the opening
| day of a Fair. Here and there
| squads of men and women were busy
decorating the various booths, or
else arranging the exhibits which had
been brought in during the previous
afternoon or night. Every booth in
| the huge hall has been taken and I'M
less something unforeseen occurs the
building is going to be crowded with
people from every portion of the
county and from the adjoining coLr-
ties as well.
The crowd today is about of the
same size as is usually present Oh
the opening day, possibly a few hun
ceipts at the gate indicate that more
people had passed through up to two
o'clock than on any previous opening
day, but it may be that the people
were earlier in getting in than usual,
and also the young men who were
selling and taking tickets seemed to
be adopts at the art of quick work.
The steamer Dreamland arrived
about half-past one o'clock and brou-
ght large crowd, the largest crowd
by far that it has ever brought on
the opening day. The crowds tomor-
row and Thursday will undoubtedly
be very much larger; in fact, it is
likely that the capacity of the steam
er may be taxed to handle the num-
Der of persons who are expected to
come on these two days.
The usual Midway shows were
open for business this afternoon, and
to all appearances were doing good
business. Of course, there are some
people who expect the whole show
business to be revolutioniZed each
year, not realizing that if their ex-
pectations were to be met, it would
be necessary for everyone to have a
different suit of clothes each day, to
| move into a different house each
year, or oftener; to have different
colored hair different days, different
colored eyes, and so on all along the
line; they would have everything diff
ferent all the time but such is not
life, but the merry go-round and the
other amusements are finding a SPLEEN
did business, and the years interval
of time has made both old and young
forget that anything like them was
here last year.
The Fair will be open tonight ana
each night during the Fair, and as
the Midway is lighted with electric
lights, it squite likely that a large
crowd will be present.

Destroy Federal Building In Chi
cagO Yesterday Afternoon.

Chicago, September 4 - Four per-
sons were killed and more than rs
others injured by the explosion of e
bomb in a crowded entrance to the
Federal building at $40 o'clock this
afternoon.
The explosion which not only
wrecked the entrance of the building
but shattered every window on the
first three floors of two buildings

the /. w. W. by Phillip j. Barry, in
charge of the local offices of the De-
partment of Justice.
Raids on two headquarters of the

Ga. One order said the men should
be entrained yesterday while a later
order received by the board said the
men should not leave their home.

terday afternoon but they were dis
missed and instructed that their date
of entrainment had been changed un-
til Friday afternoon. Some of the men
who had been ordered in under this
call we're also informed that they
would not be called on account of
physical disability and the local board
will be compelled TO select four more
men sometime today or this evening
for tomorrow's call. The men will be
given their orders in plenty of time,
however for them to he on hand to-
morrow in time to take the afternoon

ing and got off to camp in good shape.
There we're few people at the train to
bid them good bye except their i'm

Ashland, KY, September &C H.
(Cotton) Smith, aged twenty-four
years, whose home is at Sharon, W.
Va, murderer of G. and o. special Of
fcer r. L. Kinman, of Russell whom
he shot and killed on the night of
July 18th in the Ashland yards, at
which time he also shot and wounded
c. & O., special agent L. Y. Johnson,
of Ashland, was late Tuesday after
noon given a life sentence in the Ken
tucky penitentiary.
The sentence was fixed when the
jury brought in a verdict of guilty
| following the defendants entering a
plea of guilty and throwing himself
upon the mercy of the court. The
sentence was acceptable to Mrs. Kin
man, widow of the victim of Smiths
revolver, who was present in court
and gave her consent to the sparing
of Smiths life, upon condition that he
would be placed where. he could do
no further crime.
The jury was out just long enough
to sign the necessary papers.
The jury which was composed of
| leading citizens of the county had
been selected when the defendant af-
ter consultation with his attorneys
p. H. Camp of Charleston and r. s.
and Vernan Dinkle, of Catlettsburg
through, them entered a plea of guilty
and the jury retired and in a few mo
ments returned a verdict of guilty of
murder in first degree and fixed his
punishment at hard labor in the peni-
tentiary for 80 years. The murderer
was plainly very nervous during the
time in which the jury was out doubt
less fearing that he would be SEN
fenced to electrocution A young wo-
man who was present at the trial, ac-
companying the father and mother of
the man, went into the Clerks Office
and applied for a license to marry
Smith. She claimed his father to be
her guardian and when she could not
explain that he had been appointed by
legal authority he interposed that she
had previously been married to one
Allen Douglas. She insisted that Dou-
glas had procured a divorce and gone
| to the war and when County Clerk
Fisher remained obdurate, she said
he could wire Charleston and he toa
her that this would be up to her to
do that She then went out in the hall
and screamed like doom was at hand
and kept this up for long while. She
previously left a travelling bag in the
County Clerks office and Sheriff De-
Bord seized same and opened it find
ing a six shooter revolver and razor
in it.

NURSE ENROLMENT
WILL CLOSE TODAY
Young Women Are Given Their Last
Opportunity to Join the U. s. Stu
dent Nurse Reserve Today
Wonderful Opportunity is
Offered.

According to information received
from Louisville the campaign for en-
litments in the United States Stu
dent Nurses Reserve must come to
a close today so that the young wo-
men who are enlisted may be placed
in the hospitals for training in the
fall term.
This announcement means that to-
day is the last chance young women
will have to enlist and learn an hon
orable profession at the expense of the
government. Already a number have
enlisted from Mason county but it is
feared they will not all pass the re-
quired examination and that Mason
county's net enlistment in this drive
will fall short of the quota assessed
the county.
There are many young women who
have been considering enlisting ever
since the drive opened but who have
not fully made up their minds about
the matter. They must decided today
or the door will be closed to them.
Enlistments will be received at the
Mason County Public Library all day
today. There will be members of the
Woman's Council of National Defense
committee on hand all day long to ex-
Dlain to those interaSted the rauuira
ments and the proposition as made by
the government. 1t is to be hoped
that several will be listed before the
day closes.

LEWIS HARRIS WILL
Face TRIAL FOR HIS
LIFE This MORNING
Much Interest Attached to the First
Wilful Murder Case Tried In Ma.
son County For Years-JurOrs
to BE Selected Care
ful'v Tcdny,

Lewis Harris, colored, alleged wife
murderer, will enter upon trial for
his life in the Mason Circuit Court
this morning and there is very much
interest being displayed in the tral.
This is the first case in which the
electric chair stares the defendant in
the face to be called on Mason coun-
ty court docket for many years and
this is the cause of the great interest
displayed
Hon. A. D. Cole and ]. G. Wads-
worth are representing the defendant
in the case while Commonwealth At
torney B. S. Grannis and County Attor-
ney W. H. Rees will do the prosecut
ing 1t is the first case of the kind
Mr.. Grannis has prosecuted since he
was elected to office in this district
and the first case of the kind County
Attorney Rees has been associated
with since he became County Attor-
ney.
The selection of the jury this morn
ing is expected to take up quite bit
of the time of the court as both sides
will more than likely be very careful
in the questioning of all jurors who
are finally accepted to try the case.
One of the chief prosecuting wit
nesses, who was very seriously in
jured by Harris while he was attempt
ing to put the alleged murderersunder
arrest, will have to be brought to
court in an ambulance but all these
arrangements have been made. 1t is
not likely that Walker will be called
to the stand before this afternoon,
however, as there are several other
witnesses to be questioned by the pro-
secution before Walker will be called.
The evidence in the case will not
likely be long and it is expected that
the case may be finished today and at
the latest tomorrow. This will be the
most interesting criminal case to
come up for trial this term and it is
expected the court house will be we'll
filled with those anxious to hear some
of the evidence.

GERMANS give
GROUND ON $50
mile BATTLE FRONT
Complete Withdrawal From Ypres to
Rhelms-FrancO-A Americans in
Pursuit Over Yesle.

With the American Army on the
Vesle, September A German with
drwal from the Vesle has begun. Com
bat patrols of Americans and French
are close on their heels to the west
of Zazoches and eastward to a point
beyond Fismes.
Smart machine gun resistance is
being encountered. BY all indications
the Germans have withdrawn their
main bodies to the north, possibly
preparatory to crossing the Aisne.
Light forces of Americans have ad-
vanced their lines some distance
north of the Vesle.
1t became apparent today that the
Germans had given up the struggle
to maintain a foothold north of the
Vesle. American and French artillery
continued their furnishing fire over
an area extending to. the Aisne with
out bringing a reply that could be
compared in intensity.
Paris, September 4-In addition to
forcing the Germans to retreat north
of the Disc and on the Vesle front;
the French today made big gains
northeast of Noyon, according to the
war Office announcement tonight. The
greatest gains were made north of the
Vesle which has been crossed on a
front nearly 20 miles.
With the British Army in France,
September 4-British troops are on
the Canal Du Nord virtually along ito
whole length from Peronne to north
of the Arras-Cambrai road and in the
south at two places where the canal
is only about half constructed, at
Ruyaulcourt adm Maislains, patrols
are pushing forward.
Along the canal to the north, how
ever, the enemy is holding the east
bank, apparently in great strength
and has been using his machine guns
freely all day. Patrols who have ven-
tured anywhere in sight have been
heavily fired upon from the opposite
bank.
The Germans have destroyed all
the bridges and crossings over the
canal. Exhausted and in confusion
the enemy is being subjected to heavy
shell fire. But the British for the
moment are making no attempt to
drive him further. 1t seems quite evil
dent that the Germans intend to make
a desperate stand here, in front of the
famous Bouarlon wood and Cambria.
Meanwhile the northern part of
the Hindenburg line continues to be
cleared. The troops are making some
progress astride it in southeasterly
direction.
