CHARACTERIZATION
OF / ABOR day AT
BEEGHWOOD TODAY
Maysvllle VIII Observe Labor Day as
Never Before TOday-Great Pa
rade on Down Town Streets
This Evening.

Today is Labor Day and Labor Day
means more in Maysville this year
than ever before.
For the first time in recent years
the holiday will be celebrated on an
extensive scale in this city. All plans
for the big day were completed sew
eral days ago by the Chamber of Com
merce committee having the matter
in charge and as yet there has been
nothing to cause the promoters of the
big celebration to think that 1t will
be anything short of a record break
ing celebration.
The Augusta Band will arrive In
the city this morning and give sever
al concerts on the street. This band
will give several concerts at Beech
wood Park this afternoon and this
evening. The Community Chorus
practise Saturday evening was Won
derful success. There is no doubt but
that Mason county can get together
one of the best community choruses
in the entire state of Kentucky and
this organization will make it's debute
this evening. Miss Archdeacon Is the
pianist while Mrs. w. B. Campbell is
the reader with the organization and
Carl Dodds is the leader.
The committee this morning re-
quests the business men and the resi-
dents to decorate their homes and
places of buiness with American flags.
This is a patriotic Labor Day and the
display of the Red, White and Blue all
over the city is urged.
All arrangements for the gun shoot
and athletic meet are to be carried
out to the letter and the big dance in
the pavilion at night promises to be
one of the most interesting parts OF
| the entire days program.
The big parade late this afternoon
in which the business men Will take q
part as we'll as the members of the
local trade unions will be something
worth seeing and it Is certain that be-
fore that time the city will be filled
with people from all over the coun
try.
The entire city should get into thu
spirit Of the day and pay all honor t.
the laborers of the nation in thi
their only holiday of the year.
In the past many Maysville and Ma
son county people went to Cincinnati
and other cities to spend Labor Da,
but this year they will spend the da,
at home where we will have one of tn
biggest and best celebrations in tn
entire Ohio Valley.

C. W.OWENS WAVES
EXAMINATION; HELD
TOtTHE GRAND jury
Examining Trial Dispensed With BY
Former City Clerk Accused Of
Embezzlement Bond Is
Left at $4,000 For
Appearance Today.

The examining trial Of George
Wood Owens, former City Clerk Of
the city of Maysville, was called be-
fore Police Judge John L. Whitaker
Saturday afternoon at 2:S0 o'clock.
Mr.. Owens in court and was rep
resented by Hon. w. D. Cochran, OF
the law firm Of Worthington, Coch-
ran and Browning.
When the case was called Mr.
Owens waived his examination and he
was held for Grand Jury investiga-
ton by Judge Whitaker. His bond
was fixed at the same amount as he
was held under for his appearance on
Saturday-six thousand dollars but
the surety on the bond was changed
in one instance. The sureties on the
examining trial appearance bond were
Messrs. Thomas A. Keith, G. L. Wood
and ]. C. Everett but the new bond
for his appearance before the Grand
Jury carries the names of Thomas A.
Keith, G. L. Wood and Mary Lee For
man as sureties. The latter is an
aunt of Mr.. Owens.
There were no new developments In
the case Saturday except that 1t is
learned from good authority that the
alleged embezzlement of the former
City Clerk will be considerable more
than was at first thought. At first
the shortage was reported to be about
$4,000. In a few days 1t was reported
to be approximately $4,000 but on Sat
urday it was said that the amount OF
the city's money alleged to have been
used by the former City Clerk would
go over $4,000 and probably very close
to $4,000.
1t is understood that the case Will
in all probabilities be compromised
today. At least it is known that there
is a movement Oh loot 10 reach COM
promise before the case will be call
ed for trial even should there be an
indictment found by the present
Grand Jury.

only one way to cure catarrhal deafness.

CIRCUIT COURT
OPENS SEPTEMBER
Term TODAY
Busy Term of the Mason Circuit Court
win BE Opened This Morning BY
Judge Newell-Grand Jury
Reports For Duty.

The September term of the Mason
Circuit Court, usually the busiest
term in the whole year, will be opened
at the County Court House by Judge
c. D. Newell this morning at o'clock
when the reports of the various coun~
ty officers will be received and read.
The first important action to be
taken by the court this morning will
be the selection of the Grand Jury, its
organization and the delivery of the
charge by the Judge. The Grand Jur-
ors have been summoned several days
ago by the Sheriff although they have
not been publicly announced. They
will report at o'clock this morning
and after giving them the statutory
charge and charges on any special
matter that may have the attention of
the court, they will repair to their
rooms on the third floor of the Court
House and begin their work, the
Judge having first appointed fore
man.
This term of court does not promise
just now to be such very busy term
but what the Grand Jury will do can
not be figured on and it may develope
into a very important session
The trial of a change of venue case
from Lewis county in which the Coun-
ty Road Engineer is under indictment
on a charge of fraud, will probably be
the first case to come for trial. 1t
will bring from Lewis county the ma
jority of the county officials and many
of the prominent citizens who are wit
nesses. The case was tried here last
term and resulted in a hung jury. In
the case testimony of experts is to
be introduced, it is understood, and it
will probably take a week of the
courts time. Following this case
there are some five or six criminal
cases to come up for trial, chief of
which is the case against Lewis Har-
ris, indicted for wilful murder in the
killing Of his wife.
Everything is in readiness FOR the
opening Of court and it is expected
work will begin tomorrow when the
petit jury, several days ago summon
ed, will report for service

CAMOUFLAGED
KITCHEN TABLE

Just the ordinary implanted kitchen
ironing table, the kind with the top
held in place by four wooden pegs
and a box effect underneath to hold
things, can be transformed into a very
attractive piece of furniture, indeed.
You know how difficult it is to de-
eide what to put in the hall to take
away that bare look. why not use
an ironing table-black walnut or
stained, ornamented with very large
brass-headed upholsterer's nails
driven at two or three-inch intervals
and the top opened back against the
wall? It will make a stunning hall
bench, and no one could guess that
it had ever been a humble ironing
table of the 81 or So variety. In
cidently, the seat may be used to hold
odds and ends.
In a particularly attractive bed
room the other day a, visitor noticed
the table, which was of unusual de-
sign, with the top covered with Gre
tonne to match the window drap-
cries.
where did you get that pretty
little table? I would like to get one
like it if you don't mind" remarked
the Clever Girls, friend. And she was
told that is was a plain garden var
iety ironing table, ivory enamelled
and the cretonne tackled on.
Painted green or gray, with some
brightly colored flowers stenciled il
| some conventional design, it will make
just the right center of attraction fol
your porch. Again, the seat may be
| used to hold magazines.
