BOYS MAKING GOOD

The DaviSon-Telford Electrical
company, of this city, are strong in
their opinion that advertising through
the columns of the Daily Register is
a paying investment. The firm in
serted small advertisement in the

stenographer, and before the paper
had been delivered in the city three
hours three applications for the posi-
tion were received. The position was
given to Mrs. Nora Perkins, who is
an expert typist, and assumed her du-
ties first of the week. Messrs. Da-
vison and Telford have achieved an
enviable reputation since ventUring
in the electrical business. They have
fitted up excellent and commodious
quarters in the James property on
Second street and are carrying a COM
plete stock of electrical SUPPLIES and
accessories. The boys have been made
sole distributors of the DeIco-Light
plant in nine eastern counties, in
cluding Madison county, where they
have already installed a great many

PRESERVED
FOR Use IN FUTURE:

George Estes, survivor Of the gun
battle two weeks ago at Irvine, con
tinues to recover at the p. A.'C. hos
pital one of the bullets having been
removed from a vital part of his
body. This has been preserved, for
it will no doubt furnish some impor-
tant evidence when tie cases come to
trial. 1t is presumed the developments
in the case will be rSumed later when
the condition of Estes warrants his
leaving the hospital, which will be
some time.
The bullet removed from his body
is said to be of a .38 special caliber
variety, and is badly mashed it hav-
ing struck thigh bone. 1t has been
placed away for safety, and it is said
the same caliber bullet ended the life
of Deputy Sheriff Henry Reed, who
died at the infirmary several days af-
ter reaching here from Irvine, the
scene Of the shooting. These two inn
portant pieces of evidence are being
retained for future use. Detective Joe
Spivy has recovered in the Madison
county jail from the effect of his in
juries, he having been shot through
the side. Officer Reed stated before
his death that he shot Spivy while the
latter was running TIE bullet hole
in daybook carried by Spivy at the
time probably saved his life by caus-
ing the bullets course to be DETECTED,
showing it to be of a large caliber.

revolver at the time of the shooting

Milwaukee, Wis, Sept. Invading
Wisconsin on the second day of his

continued pounding the republican
campaign contributions and discus

In his address here, Cox asked Re
publican Chairman Hays concerning
certain alleged quotas in the "official
bulletin" of the republican treasurer,
and concluded with this observation:
IF you told tn truth on the stand un-
der oath, then Mr. @Upham, republi-
can national treasurer, in his official
capacity misrepresented you. This
contradictory circumstance shows you
are either perjurer or a Mr.. Up
ham is falsifier. If tie latter i:
true, then it is your duty to discharge
him as treasurer. If you do not do so

own conclusions Who asked Harding

tions in international relations?'

First Asphalt Is Laid
On Lancaster Avenue

The first of the asphalt has
been laid on Lancaster avenue.
but with characteristic regularity.
the work has been stopped by
rain. 1t is expected to be resum-
ed the first of the week when this
thoroughfare will be finished
within short time and then a
period of IA days is required to
admit of the settling of the finish
ing coat, when the street will be
opend for use.
The new machine for making
the asphalt was assembled with
the assistance of two local men,
Messrs. Prewitt Willoughby and
l.. r. Blanton, who know a few
things about scales, asswell as
coal. There is a double set of
scales attached to the machine
which weighs the ingredients as
they are mixed. and these scales
were out of order, hence some Of

COURT DAY MONDAY

The banks of Richmond, together
with other busines establishments,
will be open Monday, although that
date is the official Labor Day, but it
is also court day, and there will be
big horse sales, according to the pre-
dictions, and a general beginning of
busines for the week. 1t is expected
the sales will be conducted chiefly
on Water street, owing to the condi
tion of First street, especially be-
tween Main and Irvine streets. This
is the first change in a decade, it is
said, in the sites where the monthly
sales are conducted, and is neccssitat-
ed by the street paving work.
Richmond bankers stated Saturday
morning that the banks would be
open for busines at the usual hour,
this being caused by the day being
court day. City and county offices
will also be open, since there will be
no general observance of Labor Day.

$4,000 DAMAGE
SUIT HAS Been FILED
Berea College and Attaches Are
Charged With Incompetency
BY Larkin Kirby

Berea College and physicians anC
surgeons, as well as the superintend
ent and a nurse, are named as defend
ants in suit for $4,000 damages
filed in the Madison circuit court by
Larkin Kirby, administrator of the
estate of Nettie NJ. Kirby, who, the
plaintiff claims, came to her death
through negligence upon the part OF
the attaches.
The petition recites that it was
while in good health that Nettie M.
Kirby entered the school, having duly
paid the regular tuition, and was to
have been cared for at the hospital
in case of sickness, and that her
death occurred in the hospital there
on February a, 1920, after an illness
of measles and pneumonia; that the
latter affiiction was brought about
through the alleged cruelty of one of
The nurses who forced the patient to
leave her bed and pass though a hall
TO toilet room, and when the patient
became too weak and tainted, then
groaned with pain, the nurse is said
to have struck and beaten her in a
cruel manner, as shown by bruises on
her body; that the pneumonia was
brought on by this exposure, but not
discovered until the patient was in
serious condition; that the attending
physicians, upon being apprised Of the
fact, refused to properly treat her,
and that death resulted.
The petition for damages also re-
cites that after the patient had asked
to be cared for more mercifully, she
was i'll treated and there were no re-
suits, except continuation of the
harsh treatment. Direct negligence
upon the part of those in charge, viz,
Dr. r. H. Cowley, DR.. Harlan Dud-
ley, Mary S. LOngacre, superintend-
ent, and Nellie f! Miller, head nurse,
is attributed as the direct cause of
death.
Attorneys for the plaintiff are ].
r. Llewellyn of Mckee, and Che
nault and Chenault, of Richmond.

BUT LITTLE HEMP GROWN

There is very little hemp grown
now, fact attracting the attention
of farmers, who relate that few
years ago there were hundreds of
acres devoted to it's culture here.
They give as the reason the decrease
in price and the difficulty in procur-

with the wages necessary now they
are not paid for the work and the
crop is not paying in any respect.
