AUTO SPEEDER FINED
ON TWO CHARGES
Lewis Neale Has Close Call On
Horseback When "Speed De-
mons" Dash Around Curve

Two Shelby county autoists,
who said they couldn't get rooms
for the night at Lexington be-
cause of the fair crowd, drove to
Richmond Thursday night. They
were so anxious to get to bed,
that they passed Lewis Neale's
home on the Lexington pike close
to so miles an hour in their car.
Mr.. Neale, who was just return
ing from town on horseback, had
a very narrow escape. The
speeders turned curve so fast,
on him that he barely had time to
jerk his mount up on an embank
ment and prevent the animal
from being run down. He had
very close call, indeed, but the
visiting autoists didn't stop to see
if any harm had happened, but
came on to town. Mr.. Neale fol-
lowed them in and took out war
rants against them. They were
tried before County Judge Price
Friday morning. ]. c. Lewis, who
was driving the car, was fined SIS
and costs on two charges, that of
driving car beyond the lawful
speed limit, and that of driving {,
car while intoxicated. L. R.
Kesler, who was riding with
Lewis, and said he was teaching
him to drive the car, was held not
culpable, as he was simply
passenger. Mr.. Neale asked that
the lowest fine be assessed
against them. They paid the fine
with check on the bank at Bag
add, Shelby county.
Three of the Hoskins boys
were convicted at their second
trial by jury in court Friday
morning, on charge of throwing
rocks at Robert Griffith and wife.
Embry Hoskins was cleared of
the charge. But Charley, John
and Lawrence Hoskins were fined
SIS each.
! Robert Sewers, of Valley View,
who was put on $10O bond fur
nished by brother on a breach
of the peace charge, failed to ap-
pear and the bond was declared
forfeited. Sewers is charged with
striking and abusing his wife. An
other brother made the charge
against him.
Rev. Lee Hackworth was clear
ed on charge of disturbing re-
ligious worship at McCord's
school house, near Boonesboro.
The charge was made by Rev. G..
McCuddy, a Methodist minister.
The latter's witnesses are said to
have failed to make out case
against Hackworth. The latter
was accompanied to town by his
brother, Luther Hackworth and
Everett Upton.

The New Ocean Racers

THE United States Shipping Board has given
the country a thrill by announcing that
two gigantic oil-burnng ocean liners are to
be built that will cross the Atlantic in four
days. outspeed any passenger ships anoat, and
place the United States in the premier class
as the producer OF great merchant craft The
whole body OF the American people will feel
pride in this achievement, and the rest OF
the world will take notice that the United
States proposes to remain in the first rank
as maritime power
AS has often been said. the war has proved
a handsome investment for this country in
many directions. 1t has given the nation an
opportunity to experiment with many pro-
Jects which would have waited perhaps
decades il the necessities of the emergency
had not compelled resort to them at once.
and the most beneficial result of the conflict
has been realized in restoring this country to
It's rightful place the high seas Already
its navy had achieved second place among the
worlds great fighting fleets and now its mer-
chaht marine is in second place, with the
promise that it will soon attain rank az

success, new will have been inaugurated

Trip to Europe. and the 5000 miles of
water which separate the two continents will
be space that may be covered in about the
same time that the fastest express trains cross
the continent from New York TO San Fran
cisco.
Europe must understand, from this new
venture on the part OF the United States that
we have no notion whatever of withdra wing
from the seas, now that the war is over IL
