Respondent Miner
: ENDS HIS life
Simmons Man Shoots Self
At The Willard Hotel
Louisville.

Propped up in a bed in a room on
the second floor of the Willard Ho-
tel. the body of r. c. Vance, 50
years old, a miner of Simmons, KY,
was found about 1 o'clock to-day by
a maid at the hotel. Vance had shot
himself through the head. The bull
let passed through his mouth and
lodged in the ceiling.
1t is believed that Vance ended
his life some time during the night.
He came to Louisville August IT
from Simmons to confer, according to
a diary found in his possession, with
several labor officials here relative
to his work at the Broadway Mines,
Simmons. While here he met sever
al miners who were on their way to
Washington and he expressed de-
sire to go with them. When he was
told that they could not take him
he became respondent, it is said.
A note found in his room, address
ed to DIR. Willard Lake, of Simmons,
read: Come get me-" 1t was dat
ed August 10.

NEGRO IN WOODPILE.

There were a whole bunch of ne
groes in the work OF, fight inquiry
held in Judge Cooks court Wednes-
day morning. Five of the colored
gentry were hailed into court charg-
ed with failing to respect the thirty
six hour work law. One Of them pro-
cured a physicians certificate that he
was unable to work, and the remain
ing four were given until Monday to
find Jobs. County Attorney Kirk
told the boys frankly that no monkey
business would go, and that they
would have to go to work or go to
jail. He also told them he had been
informed a number of colored men
had been hiding in their houses or
in the woods to escape observation,
and that he was going after such
persons without mercy. The coun-
ty officials are planning countrywide
campaign after loafers, and white and
black will be caught in the net. 1t
is the duty of every citizen to report
to the proper officer every known
habitual loafer. to the end that no
able-bodied man may escape his prop
er contribution to the urgent needs
of the country for labor. Turn the
loafers in.

HAMMERTOED NEGRO.

Hammertoes! II may not be news
to you, but it was to us. We were
news-nosing around the exemption
board the other day when DR.. Pen
dleton, the examining physician call
ed our attention to a condition of a
negroes toes, known to the profess
sion as '"Hammertoed." The first and
third toes ON each of the negro's feet
came completely together at their
ends. The second toes turned per-
fectly perpendicularly down at the
second Joint, and were greatly en-
larged at the ends. Such mal-for-
nations, the Doctor said, were very
rare, and that this was the most ex-
aggerated case he had ever seen.
When the Doctor discovered the con-
dition of the negro's feet he discon-
tinued the examination, and told him
to beat II for home.

STORM DOES DAMAGE.

A wind and hail storm did quite
a bit of damage in limited area OF
the county Saturday afternoon. In
the neighborhood of Ricketts, there
was heavy downpour of hail, and
number of crops of tobacco were
ruined. The roof of the large two
story residence of Mr.. George Barnes
living on the Beaver Dam pike, was
blown off, and lightning struck a
barn on Mr.. Barnes farm. Light
ming did some damage to the light
plant in Hartford. Only the area in
which the hail fell received sufficient
rain to materially help the crops.

BLIND COAL DIGGER
SUPPORTS FAMILY

Earning, by manual labor, livli-
hood for himself and family by a
man. totally blind, is the remarkable
accomplishment of citizen, OF
Narrows, small village in the north
ern end of this county. Thirty years
ago Sam Gentry, then boy, lost his
eyesight by an accident. Young
vigorous and self-respecting, the
young man, being poor and unwilling
to become a charge on charity, set
about plans for earning his own liv-
ing. A small cd0 bank, on his faith
er's farm, in which he had some
training, offered the first opportun-
ity for him to achieve his end, and
for a number of years now he has
supported his wife and children by
digging coal. Every morning, sight
less and lightless, Gentry gropes his
way along the track rails to his room
in the mine, labors until nightfall,
the approach of which he can de-
termine by the change in air-pres-
sure, then feels his way to the mouth
of the mine where his small son is
waiting to lead him home. However
humble and unheralded, blind man
industriously welding pick and SHOW
ell in the hidden depth of the earth
to support, unaided by charity, his
wife and children, deserves to have
his picture hung in the gallery of
heroes.

ed was committed at the Clear Run
church Sunday. 1t is alleged the boys
have been a little too gay in their con-
duct at church for sometime, and
Sunday carried their gaiety to such
extremes that it was thought adj
visable to call them to account. The
courts have little mercy on persons
charged with disturbing religious
worship, and if proven guilty the boys
will pay dearly for their fun.

2 U-BOATS sent To
DAVY JONES' LOCKER
One Goes By Cun6re-Oth-
er Is Rammed OFF u. S.
Coast.

Washington, Aug. 20.-The navy
department announced today that the
captain of an American steamer had
reported that his vessel rammed and
probably sank a submarine about
$50 p. m. on August II near Winter
Quarter Shoal off the Northern Vir-
ginia coast. The captain stated the
submarine was struck on her port.
bow, bringing her alongside.
The submarine crew hailed in
strong German accents, saying they
were friends, the captain, said, but
he replied they were no friends of
his. He kept on his course, he said.
The steamer is now in port with a
badly damaged bow and quantity
of water in her hold. The captain
thinks he sank the submarine.
In making the announcement the
department did not name the ship.
Because of the American shippers
circumstantial report and the tangi-
BILE evidence furnished by the dam
aged bow, the story is given cred
ence not accorded most of the ac-
counts of submarine distinctions
reaching the navy.
Tanker Sinks Big One.
An Atlantic Port, Aug. 20.-A 400
foot enemy submarine was sunk off
the Atlantic coast by the gun crew
of British tanker, according to an
officer of the tanker.
The tale of the battle between the
tanker and U-boat was told today by
John Crosby, chief mate of the form
er, from his bed in a hospital where
he is being treated for shock.
? Crosby is said to be in a serious
condition. A remarkable feature Of
the case is that he felt no i'll eff
fects during the engagement, which
took place last Friday and was in
good health until yesterday morning.
Then, safely in port and beyond the
reach of the undersea pirate, he col
lapsed
1.-THE second mate was on the
bridge about 3 o'clock in the after
noon" Crosby said. There was new
er a sign of any craft around, but
he caught the streak made by tor
pedo coming toward the tanker, He
yelled and the ship was thrown out
of her course. Everyone was on
deck by that time, but we saw moth
ing of the U-boat that started the
thing toward us. what we did see
was another torpedo. We zigzagged,
lodging the missile as prettily as
could be. II went by us. Then the
came out of the water with
her guns ready. She was all of 400
feet long and could make seventeen
knots an hour. Our boat was good
for eleven and a half knots, but we
began to go with the U-boat coming
behind. She opened up with her
guns and the fight started.
81 was acting as spotter for the
gunner, calling the shells as they
kicked up the water about the U-boat.
Our twenty-sixth shot took the sub
marine right. She did not blow up
with a bang. What she did was to
swing around slowly and drift broad
side on. We did not slow down but
made for port as swiftly as We could
travel. l am sure our shot destroy
ed the enemy craft"

ACTIVE TRADING
IN CORN MARKET

business today in the grain pits. An
nouncement that there would be q

night had much to do with the
nervousness shown and with temper

Corn influenced by the big receipts
developed notable weakness at the
outset, but quick covering by shorts
brought about sharp rally, which,
however, failed to last. After open
ing 1-Sc to ! 5-SC lower, with March
$1.26 1-2 and May $1.22 to $1.23 IL,
prices ran up far above Saturdays

Oats paralleled the action Of corn.
The market was a big broad affair
with sentiment we'll divided. Open
ing prices, which ranged from IA to
7-Sc lower, with May sic to 81 3-4c,
were followed by a decided upswing
and then sudden reaction multiplying
nearly all of the advance.
Provisions were heavy in line with
the hog market.
