BEAUTIFUL SERVICES
Held at st. Patrick Church This Morn.
ing In Honor of James Kellum,
First Maysyille Boy to Enlist
and First TO BE Killed
In Present War,

In tender tribute to Private James
kellum, beautiful Memorial service
was held at st. Patricks Church this
morning, many people being present
to pay honor and reverence to the
memory of this young hero, who at
the age of 10 years was killed fighting
bravely in his country's cause. Pri-
vate James Kellum was the first
young man from this town to enter
the service, enlisting on the seventh
of April, the day after war was de-
clared and is the first young man
killed in this war from here.
The services were opened by the
singing of America" after which
Mass was said for the brave soul of
Jimmie Kellum.
Father Jones then made a short talk
telling how at the beginning of the
war this splendid young man had
heard the call of service and respond
ed to it. Father Jones compared the
spirit of Leslie Arthur, the first Ma
son county boy to be killed and the
spirit of James Kellum to that of a
Washington and Lincoln. One leav-
ing a luxurious environment and all
that heart could wish and the other,
the sole support of widowed moth
er, hearing the call from the midst of
labor and poverty were typical of the
spirit of Washington and Lincoln.

Catlettsburg.

David NJ. Meyers, Mason county
attorney under Indictment in the Fed
eral court on charge of violating
the espionage act, was in Lexington
Saturday in conference with his at
torney preparatory to the trial of his
case which is now set for July Is.
In statement Mr.. Meyers said that
the forfeiture of his bond by Judge

that he had been informed by one of

attorneys that his trial would not be
called until afternoon and upon his
arrival in Catlettsburg he learned that
court had been adjourned and his
bOIld had been forfeited. He says he
fully explained the matter to United
States District Attorney T. d. Slattery
however, and an agreement has been
made to rescind the forfeiture, Mr..
Slattery agreeing to make such a mo-
tion, Mr.. Meyers says his bond was
for $4,000 instead of $4,000 as report
ed.
The attorney denies that Mrs. Hill
larry Orme, wife of the man he is
charged with having tried to keep out
of military service, is very wealthy
and he also says that no claim has
ever been made before any of the
draft boards that Orme was the sole
support of his wife.

charges that have been made again ST
