PEACEFULLY LAID TO REST

| Last night the mortal remains of Mr.
Charles S. Young were brought to ou1
city over the c. & o. road, and this
morning an impressive funeral SER
vice was held in st. Patrick's Church,
Father Jones officiating. Mr.. Young
was an old Maysville boy and held in
love and esteem by the friends of his
youth.
For several years he was engaged in
business here and conducted a gents
furnishing store on Second street, but
feeling the call to larger city and
having tempting offer from Chicago,
he left here in early manhood for that
city where he made good His mother
and sister soon going there to, make
their home with him. Mr.. Young had
to an unusual degree, the gift of MAX
ing friends and their attachment for
him was strong and lasting. His life
was an open book and he needs no
eulogy from us, what better tribute
could be paid him than that an elderly
man and close friend gave, as he bent
over his casket, would that he had
a son to inherit his nobleness and pur-
ity of character" ***'

DOGS SATURDAY NIGHT

The local police made a much ap-

Maysville on Saturday night. Armed
with shot guns, members of the force
did away with many dogs which have
been causing much trouble and an
noyance to people in various parts of
the city. Especially has this been a
great nuisance about Haywood Hos
pital and the officers have the thanks
OF the entire public for taking this
matter in hand so promptly. The good
work should be kept up until the city,
is rid of large number of these
worthless ours.

soD|ERlc WORKER
IS Cut Up IN cincinnati
Estill Sanderson Of Bethel Ky, Who
Was Taken Up Here Last Week
by Police on Cold Check
Charge, Gets In Trouble
In Queen City.

The Cincinnati Post this afternoon
says that during an argument with
four other soldiers at Main street and
Patterson alley, "Dekell" Sanderson
soldier, Of Bethel, KY, was cut in the
left cheek. In Maysville Sanderson
gave his name as Estill.
1t will be remembered that the
young man was taken up by police
when he appeared at j. c. Everett &
Co.'s store and asked that they cash
check for him in the sum of $50. Over
year ago the firm had cashed check
for him for $25 which had been return
ed unpaid.
The boy was held here by the police
until the next day when his father
came to Maysville, settled all bills and
procured for him his freedom. San
1erson must be pretty rough sort of
soldier and must have gone from here
o Cincinnati where he got mixed up
With other fighting men and received
ut face.

any did not realize it. l am a con-
ductor on the Central of Georgia rail-

Springs, Ark, to take treatment About
that time | saw Rheuma advertised
and concluded to try it. l abandoned

feel as we'll as ever. l would not take

"A summary of the statements made

TAFT VIEWS ON
LEAGUE BROUGHT
BEFORE COUNCIL
Four Amendments to Present
Draft Are Proposed by For
mer President.

WASHINGTON, March 2S.-On
March 81 William H. Taft sent to
President Wilson in Paris four pro-
posed amendments to the league Of
nations constitution. These amend
ments were sent over the White
House cable and were forwarded af-
ter he president in answer to an in
quiry as to whether they would be
welcome, said they would. On March
70 their receipt was acknowledged
by The president
The presidents subordinate pro-
posed tc send the amendments with
out consulting the president, but Mr.
Taft insisted that inquiry should be
made as to whether President Wilson
desired to receive the suggestions
and the presidents answer was to the
effect that the sooner they were sent
the better.
Nature of Amendments.
Briefly stated the four amendments
are AS follows:
definite revision of the Monroe
Doctrine.
A more definite statement as to
when a member nations obligations
to the league may be terminated.
A clearer statement with respect
w tht lOlCt cdCu lldllOH Shall
provide in case it is ever called on
to supply troops.
A more definite statement as to
the vote that will be required to or
der action by the league.
The understanding here is that
President Wilson has submitted these
amendments and has asked that they
be adopted. The amendments, Re-
publican senators who are in town
say, will go long way toward meet
ing the objections to the tentative
league constitution, though there is
general disposition to withhold COM
ment until the texts of the amend
ments are made public, and until the
character of other amendments that
are being proposed to the constitution
is known.
Compromise Spirit Evident.
The spirit of compromise over the
league is apparent. All the dispatches
from Paris indicate a Willingness on
the part of the American delegates
to have the treaty amended so as to
avoid the threatened opposition in
the senate All the talk among the
Republican senators is that If the
treaty, shall come back so amended
as to meet the principal objections
that senators had made to it, there
will probably be no real opposition to
the ratification.
There have been limitations that
Senator Lodge cabled certain propos-
cd amendments to Paris, but there is
no confirmation of this story. 1t is
said at the White House that no
amendments proposed by the Mass
achusetts senator have gone over the
White House cable. At the same time
the statement is made that had Sena-
tor Lodge asked to have amendments
forwarded, as did former President
Taft, they would have been sent.
The Republican senators who sign
ed the agreement not to support the
league of nations constitution in its
original form naturally feel that their
action is responsible for the change
in the treaty that is evidently being |
made.
