UNCLE San WILL

At SHREVEPORT
TWo Carloads Of Government Exhih-
its, With War Souvenirs, To
Be Shown.

That the government Is encourag-
ing agricultural fairs this year more
than ever before, is evidenced in
many ways, including its decision -
send exhibits to various state fairs.
One OF these exhibits, filling two rail-
road cars and requiring 5000 square
feet for display. will be seen at the
State Fair of Louisiana, October 30 TO
November 4, inclusive.
In this display all branches Of the
United States government will be rep
resented, and 1t is expected TO prove
one of the most popular attractions Q:

The war work Of the nation viii be
shewn in most impressive manner by
these combined displays. The War

hardly fail to place Americans more
closely in touch with their boys who
are making more uneasy the heads

other things used in killing Fritzies.
Every red-blooded American should
see this wonderful display. 1t will be
a war show from beginnings to end.
In arranging to send exhibits to
each state fair and exposition, the
government is giving splendid eSi.

A WIFE WANTED.

Tinsleys friend, Battle Nall. asks
us to notify the female public that he
wants a wife. and invites applications.
Battle is a widower, without children
or dependent relatives, and offers any
good woman, who will marry him, to
make II per cent of the living for
two, leaving her only the burden of
providing the remaining SO per cent.
Battle would not take better than
second prize at beauty show but has
a number of more or less good quail
ties, none of which we can call to
mind just now. He prefers a red
headed woman. but would not miss a
match for a trifle like the color of a
woman's hair. He prefers an old
maid or a widow without children,
but would take a widow with not
more than nine children. provided
she owned a good farm, AND seven of
the kids were boys, old enough to
work He will not consider applica-
tions of women who are not indus
trious or have a fixed income. Bat
tie is of a kind and retiring DISPOSE
ton, the kind that retires when any
work is in front of him. He hangs
round this shop the most of the time,
aid Tinsley and Ourself will donate
a COW TO the woman who rids us of
the nuisance. We suggest the ap-
plication be made by letter and no
photographs exchanged. We will
guarantee Bat for whatever he is
worth, but we will be hanged If we
know what he is worth.

DRUMMER TAKEN SHIPPING.

One of the best practical jokes
pulled off by Hartford boys in recent
years was worked on a young travel
ing man here few nights ago. This
young hat salesman was making
Hartford for his first time. and being
product of the states metropolis,
felt the fullest freedom to practice
an excessive familiarity with the peo-
pie of Hartford town. Even the
school boys noted the fact that he
needed taking down a button hole or
two, and proceeded to do it in a fine
style. They told the young hat sales
man that in a certain section Of Ohio
county the snipe. an epicurean tidb,t.
abounded, and generously offered to
take him ON a hunt for the delicately
favored night bird. The hat sales
man feel to, and loading into a ma
chine they speeded away toward
"Hellneck. On the way out the
boys described the fine sport of hold
ing the sack while the unsuspecting
birds were being driver. into it, and
generously planned for the hat man
to hold the sack. When about five
miles from town the boys lei the un-
suspecting drummer to a lonely spot
i'm a dark ravine, and after giving
him minute instruction about just
how to hold the sack and how to bag
his quarry when all the birds in
sight are safely sacked, the boys
boarded their car and made a spin
for Hartford. Sometime afterward
the once self-complacent but now
crestfallen jew, foot-sore and weary,
made his way to the hotel and, no
doubt. slept sounder for his expert
ence. Johnnie Moore and John Ross
Taylor will perhaps make themselves
scarce the next time the Hebrew
hat salesman comes to town.

that has been in the family since

My grandfather bought it in that year
and wrote the date OF the purchase
on the back of the drawer, and the
writing still shows legibly. My
father always used it when shaving
and now my boys use it. Also my
boys have some vest buttons that
were made from the first half dimes
coined by the government, that were
worn by their at-grandfather
The date is 1927.
My brother, Joe Young, at Beaver

also have a great many odds and ends
in the way of old books and dishes
etc, that were the property of my

THE GOVERNOR MAKES
SENSATIONAL PARDONS
Youtsey And Jett Given
Pardons After Years
In Prison.

The most sensational pardons
granted by Governor Stanley during
his term of office were those given to
Henry Youtsey and Curt Jet Wednes-
day. Youtsey was sent to the peni-
Tertiary eighteen years ago on a
charge of completely in the murder
of senator Goebel, and Jett was serv-
ing a double life sentence for the
murders of Jim Cockrill and DR..
Marcum, at Jackson, during the
bloody reign of Jim Hargis, in
Breathitt county.
OF all those charged with the con-
spiracy to murder Gobel YoutseyS
was the only conviction that was fl
nally executed. At the time of Goe-
bells murder many prominent epub-
licans were arrested, charged either
as principals or accessories to the
crime. Politics at the time was at
fever heat, and an impartial trial of
the accused men was wholly impos-
sible. Twenty years have now
elapsed since the Goebel murder and
there is little doubt now in the minds
of well-informed people about who
fired the shot, but the courts at the
time were partisan and an effort was
made to fix the responsibility upon
some prominent member of the Re-
publican party, purely for partisan
purposes, and through no doubt of
men on the ground who really wanted
to know the actual author of the
deed.
Curt Jet was a nephew of Judge
Hargis. He was reared in the
mountains of Breathitt county, where
human life was the cheapest of COM
modities, and looked upon killing a
man as little more serious than
killing wild animal. The trial and
conviction of Jett broke up the Har-
gis-Callahan clan, since which time
Breathitt county has been a fairly
good place to live in.
Both Youtsey and Jet have been
exemplary prisoners and their par
dons will probably provoke but little
criticism on the head of the Governor.
Jett will enter the ministry of the
Methodist church, and will later en-
ter Wilmore College. Youtsey will
retire to his farm, near FIT. Thomas,
but has not yet announced his plans
for the future.

a NOVEL LAWSUIT.

An unusual layout was heard in
Judge Cooks court Monday. Some
months ago a Mr.. Hendrix and his
wife died, in Muhlenburg county, and
left three'small children. Mack Hen
Dirk, brother of the deceased father,
qualified as guardian of the children,
in the Muhlenburg county court. Lat
er Mr.. Clarence Roark. of Ohio coun-
ty, brother of the mother of the chill
dren, brought the orphans to his
home and qualified as their guardian,
in the Ohio county court. Thereup-
on the Muhlenburg guardian swore
out an habias corpus writ for the
children, in the Ohio county court.
After hearing the evidence of wit
nesses and argument of counsel the
court ruled that the residence of the
parents determined the residence of
the children, and that the Mullen
burg county guardian was entitled to
the custody of the wards. We UNI
uci Stdhu th' poich'S VI 'hS ShiiuiSh
carried about two thousand dollars
insurance, which will go to the bene-
fit of the children. The unusual fea-
ture of this lawsuit is due to the fact
that relatives usually make an eff
fort to escape the responsibility of
caring for orphan children rather
than going TO law to incur the bur-
den

FARMERS TALK TOBACCO
AT GREENSBORO MEETING

Farmers, who are members of The
American Cooperative Association,
met at Owensboro Saturday to discuss
tobacco sales. George Jones, of Ohio
county was elected chairman of the
meeting. In nominating Mr.. Jones
the speaker paid compliment to his
fitness, and said it was wise to select
a chairman who had not been mixed
up in any former divisions. Much
loose talk in regard to former leaders
selling out, was endulged. 1t was fl
nally decided to sell the tobacco
through the A. C. A. at such prices
as would be satisfactory to the farm

THE FLU SUBSIDING.

The influenza epidemic seems to
be measurably subsiding in most
parts of the county. Only at Fords-
vile and Centertown, as our informa-
tion goes, is the disease seriously af-
fecting any number of people. The
county board of health met here We'd
nesday to discuss the feasibility of
removing the flu ban in Hartford.
There have been no new cases de-
veloped here for several days, but on
account OF the prevalence of the
trouble in nearby communities, the
board did not think it wise to lift the
ban yet.
