BROWNS IN Y. M. C. A. POOL IN
CONVICTION.

Mr.. Joseph w. Murray, aged about
thirty years, was drowned Tuesday
afternoon while bathing alone in the
pool in Covington Y. M. C. A. The
body was found by Mr.. B. w. South
gate, who came to the pool to battle.
The body had evidently been sub
merged but a short time. Murray's
face was badly bruised on one side,
as if he had dived against the side
or bottom Of the pool.
Young Murray was a son of Mr..
Thomas Murray, former resident of
Paris, who will be well-remembered
here as Red" for many years one of
the most popular conductors on the
Covington and Cincinnati street car
line. The family moved from Paris
to Covington many years ago. The
son who was drowned Tuesday had
only been home from overseas a
short time. He was cousin of Mr..
Barney Brannon, of this city, and T.
F. and Edward Brannon, of Lexing-
ton, formerly of Paris.

DATE FOR THE LOCAL CHAUTAU.
QUA FAST APPROACHING.

All roads will lead to Paris on the
morning of Tuesday, July 8, when
the Chautauqua will open for a six
days program full of interesting fea-
lures. The program will be presented
here under the auspices of the White
& Myers Chautauqua System, of
Kansas City, who had charge of the
work in the past seasons. o.
Season tickets may be obtained at
the places designated by the commit
tee, at $500 for adults, plus the war
tax of 20 cents; childrens' season
tickets for 800, plus the war tax
of 10 cents, and will admit children
from six to twelve years. These
tickets will be on sale until noon of
the opening day. The war tax must
be paid on adult season tickets and
the childrens' seasons tickets at the
time the ticket is purchased, instead
of being collected at the Chautauqua
doors, as was done last year. These
season tickets entitle the owner to
"a very low rate of admission, and
are non-transferable except within
owners immediate family, and are
good for admission only when prop
erly signed by the owner.
Handsome designed folders, show
ing the various attractions on the

the Bourbon Circuit Court, on the
charge Of appropriating the automo-
bile of Mr.. Roy Batterton, and who

claimed to have taken the car from
a farmer living near Centreville, and
came to Cynthiana, thinking it was
court day there. The stolen car
was a Ford roadster. Morris was
arrested in Cynthiana through the
efforts of Patrolman Robert Lusk. of

turned to this city.

THUS SAITH PROPHET!

J. Attention was called Wednesday
to the twenty-fourth chapter of
Isaiah, particularly the sixth to
twelfth verse. A number were dis
posed to consider Lexington, and
other wet spots as a fulfillment of
this prophecy, especially with the
arrival of the midnight hour, when
there is crying for wine in the
streets; all joy is darkened; the
mirth of the land is gone"
The verses follow:
&c. Therefore hath the curse de-
voured the earth and they that
dwell therein are desolate; there
fore, the inhabitants of the earth are
burned, and few men left.
"7. The new wine mourneth, the
vine lanquished, all the merry-
hearted do sigh.
IS. The mirth of tabrets ceaseth,
the noise of them that rejoice endeth,
the joy of the harp ceaseth.
80. They shall not drink wine
with a song; strong drink shall be
bitter to them that drink it.
40. The city of confusion is
broken down; every house is shut
up, that no man may come in.
III. There is crying for wine in
the streets; all joy is darkened, the
mirth of the land is gone.
"12. In the city is left desolation,
and the gate is smitten with de-
struction."

TO-DAY LEGAL HOLIDAY: BANKS
AND POSTOFFTCE CLOSED

To-day is the Glorious Fourth of
July, in the past appropriately OBJ
served almost everywhere, but in the
present made CONSPICUOUS in this city
by its non-observance. There will be
no public exercises to mark the COM
ing of the Nations great day, and
with the possible exception of a few
private parties, and few flags dis
played, we will hardly know it is
here.
The banks and the postoffice will
be closed, the day being a legal hol-
iday. With all the joy taken out of
life by recent strenuous measures,
there will be little inducement for
the laboring man to clay off, on the
Fourth, as has been the custom of
many years, and one place is as apt
to be as lively as another We can
all gather around the soft drink
stands and have the best time posi-
BILE under the circumstances. Eff
forts were made to get up a public
celebration of the day, it being con-
sidered more than ever appropriate
in view of the close of the great war
and the return of Bourbon county
soldiers and sailors. But the public
spirit was lacking, and there will be
nothing doing.
The dry goods stores will celebrate
the Fourth to-day by remaining clos
ed all day, giving their employees a
holiday.
1t is probable that the same action
will be taken by many other lines of
business.

GOVERNOR REQUESTIONED FOR
FUGITIVE FROM JUSTICE

Governor James D. Black has made
requisition on the Governor of Ohio
for the return of Everett Jones,
wanted in Paris on a charge of grand
larceny. Jones was arrested by the
Dayton, Ohio, police charged with
stealing an automobile in Paris be-
longing to Newton Rankin, of Car
Isle, during a street fair in pro-
gross here recently.
Chief of Police went to Dayton and
returned with Jones, Wednesday.
Jones agreed to waive the formality
of having the papers, which Chief
Link had with him, served in the for
NAL legal way. The machine which
Jones had taken was recovered by the
Dayton police and turned over to
Chief Link. He drove the car through
from Dayton, bringing Jones with
him. Jones, who is only eighteen
years old, was at one time an in
mate of the Reform School, from
which he made his escape.
