VENDING CAUGHT

Frankfort, KY, Aug. 25-Joseph
Vending, Louisville slayer who es-
capped from the penitentiary Friday,
was captured in the streets here last
night by Patrolman Scott.
Vending was armed with a knife
and revolver, and was about two
blocks from the home Of Mrs. C. w.
Doyle, whose young daughter he had
annoyed while doing work outside
the prison as a trusty prior to his es-
cape.
A short time before Weddings
capture, C. E. Newman had fired at
a man who attempted to break into
his home. The man ran into an al
ley and turned into Main street and
was walking toward the post-office
when Scott, former prison guard,
recognized him as Alma Kellner's
slayer.
Vending started to draw his pis-
tol and the officer knocked him down
with his club.
"You oughtn't to<hit me that way"
Vending said to the officer as he lay
on the ground.
He was taken to the prison hospi-
tai where a cut in his scalp was
dressed.
Vending said he left his hiding
place in the wooded hills beyond the
tunnel in an effort to cross the river
to get TO the Louisville pike. To do
this he had to pass through the main
part of the city.
Guards had been near his place of
concealment, half mile from the
prison several times, he said.

STOCK SHIPPERS
CAN'T GET CARS

Local stock shippers are blocked
again by the railroads. This time,
the trouble is that they are unable to
secure stock cars in which to make
their shipment to market. Million &

one of cattle to the Cincinnati market
last week, but have been unable to
get the promise of any cars for this
week they say, and they have arrange
ments made to take up a large num-

complaint is heard from many other

to the Kentucky congressman to help
out and get the railroad administra-
ton to furnish cars to move the live
stock which is ready to go to mar

of five members was elected to visit
Europe, and plan for the establish
,ment of Missions in number Of the
war-stricken countries.
A Centenary offering of $5,000,000
has been pledged for this purpose,
and the membership of the entire
church is eager to begin work at the
earliest possible time. The depu-
tion which consists of Bishop James
Atkins of North Carolina, DR.. W. B.
Beauchamp of Nashville, Tenn, Miss
Belle H. Bennett of Richmond, KY,
Mr.. John R., Pepper leading banker

son of Georgia, will sail from
Montreal, Canada, on the Steamship
Melita, August Goth. This Commits
sion is authorized to visit France,
BELGIUM, Poland, the Czecho Slovakia
countries and Southern Russia, but
the revolutionary conditions in Poland
and Southern Russia make their en-

doubtful. The United States govern
ment declines at the present time, to
give passports to the latter. Miss
Bennett will leave Richmond on the

WILL Still Sell HIGH

A. W. King, of Danville, repre-

town Friday en- route to Lexington.
Mr.. King came around this way to
look over the tobacco crops of Garrard
and Madison. He says that the weed
is looking fine in all sections and looks
for bumper crop this season. He
expects prices on good tobacco to be
just as high as ever, but poor quality
weed will not sell as high as it did as
early last season he thinks. Mr..
King is one of the best posted tobac-
co men in the state and is a popular,
public-spirited citizen along with it.

TO THE: People
OF MADISON COUNTY

The Board of Regents of Eastern
Kentucky State Normal School met in
regular session here recently this
month and considered the last fs-
cal year of the School, the exhaustive
audit and report of the business af-
fairs made by Escott and Barnett Of
Louisville, KY, noted experts account
ants, and were gratified to find every
thing satisfactory and correct to the
last penny.
The school is certainly in a prosper
GUS condition, and the Board was, in
deed, surprised to find that notwith-
standing the serious RACES of the
"F'lu" and the war, the attendance
was materially larger last year than
the previous year. Indeed, the "Flu"
situation was so well and carefully
handled that not single death re-
suited therefrom to pupil of the
Norma, and this was the only school
in the State that was not forced to
close it's doors because of this hor-
rible scourge.
The School was so well managed
during the last year that out of it's
yearly income it was able to pay, not
only its running expense, but also
to pay the balance due on the new
building, it's furniture, new books for
the Library, & C, &c, and to invest "a
good round sum in Liberty Bonds to
be used for the future enlargement,
extension and needs of the school.
I take pleasure in telling you that
in my opinion the present State
Auditor and Attorney General are
the best Kentucky has had since 1906,
when the Normal School system was
established, because the previous Of
ficers would decide many questions
against the Normal Schools and State
University, even though those ques-
tions had previously been decided by
our Appellate Court in previous cases,
thus impairing the credit of these in
stitutions, and compelling new suits
(Which new suits were, of course, al
ways won by those institutions), and
at considerable expense, while the
present Auditor and Attorney Cen
eral only wanted to know what the
law was, and to faithfully follow it,
and did not once think by the mere
lost of their election to Office they
had thereby become constitutional
authorities superior to our Appellate
Court.
The outlook for large and increas-
ed attendance at the Normal during
the approaching year is good. In
deed, there is an unmistakable
awakening in Kentucky for education,
far greater than ever before known,
and for both elementary and higher
education. This is reflected in the in
creased attendance in all the common
schools of Madison and other counties
of the State during the past year, not
withstanding the "Flu" and the war.
AS you know, the people of Madi-
son and Warren counties donated
large and valuable properties to Sc
cure the location of each of the Nor
NAL Schools, and these properties
were about of the same value at each
Of the Normal Schools, and these Pro-
perties were about of the same value
at each place. These donations were
and made possible the es-
tablishment of the Normal School
system in Kentucky, so badly needed
and in doing so Kentucky was only
one hundred and fifty years behind
Germany, SO years behind France and
;8 years behind New England.
But, since the location Of the Nor

NAL School at Bowling Green the peo-
pie of Warren county have aided their
school more than the people of Madi-
son. This aid is most forcibly seen
by two important facts: First, many
more pupils. from Warren county at
tend the Normal School at Bowling
Green than attend from Madison
county our Normal at Richmond, and
second, and more important than this
attendance is the fact that the
Bowling Green Normal has not been
compelled to construct Dormitories
to accommodate the pupils because the
local community provides board and
lodging at reasonable prices for all
students, while here we have been
compelled to spend some eighty
thousand dollars for dormitories. In
deed, our teachers have often found
it impossible to rent houses, or even
get board convenient to the school.
l feel that I should call your atten-
tion to this condition, and when done
that you will correct it.
AS you know, we had Central
University here for 27 years, and dur
ing much of that time it had faculty
scarcely second to any in America,
and yet our people did not take full
advantage of the chance to get a Col
lege education, and it's managers in
moving it, said one Of the chief causes
of removal was failure of proper
local patronage. We see that failure
to have proper local accommodationsin
causing the civil business in our
Federal Court to go where such
modern accommodations can be had.
I hope that no failure on the part of
the people of Madison will cause the
removal of our Normal Schools, or
other Normals to be built elsewhere
/ think it my duty to make this
statement to you, and want you to
consider it. I know the high cost of
living, bu,. this exists elsewhere as
well as here. I know that there
has always been a desire for higher
education in Richmond and Madison
County, but this has, it seems, been
confined to all too few families OF
persons. I do not eXaggerate when
l say that our Normal stands in the
forefront of such schools in America.
The thought and purpose of a Normal
School is to teach teachers how to
teach, or how to impart knowledge to
others. The theoretical Normal is
postgraduate school, and it's purpose
is not to impart knowledge, except
as to method of imparting knowledge
to pupils.
But, this is not only theoretical
school, it is practical school, intend
ed to meet conditions in Kentucky,
which require the imparting of know
edge, as we'll as of method. L with
the approval of Judge A. R. Burnam,
Judge Louis McQuowan and Gov.
Beckham drew the law to meet the
needs of Kentucky.
