Severe HAIL STORM

A severe hailstorm which wrought
great damage to tobacco in Garrard
county Friday afternoon and evening
is reported. Great damage was done
especially to tobacco, while in some
localities the corn is said to have suf-
fered to a great extent. City Judge
G. Murray Smith, of Richmond, was
in. that county, making the trip thru
in his automobile, and was compell-
ed, he reports, to take refuge during
the storm, which he described as the
most severe he had encountered in
years. The rainfall jim the southern
part Of Madison county is said to
have been heavy, while there was
but liberal sprinkling here.

DISTEmPER AMONG
FOX HOUNDS HERE

Considerable CONSERVATION prevails
among the owners Of fox hounds in
this part of the stae, owing to the
third appearance of distemper, which
is reported rs being prevalent in
some sections A number of the Mad
ison county dogs have fallen Victims
to the malady, which has been the
cause of the death of several valu-
able CANNES in other counties. There
have been no fatalities reported in
Madison county during the present
attack, although there were several
last spring when the disease first
made its appearance. j. l.. KanatZar
reported the appearance of the dis
ease near his place, but none Of his
dogs are afflicted. Special care is be-
ing taken of them and many of the
ohases booked for this month have
been called off. Jennings Maupin,
county clerk, who is the owner of a
number of valuable dogs, reports his
CANNES as being free fro mthe dis
ease, as do R. B. Terrill, G. w. Ian

RUTH GETS HIS
41ST HOME Run

Chicago, August THE three lead
| ing batters in the American League
! fattened up their averages during the
! past week, but Babe Ruth, home
+! run champion, who is in fourth place
| suffered a slump before Dick Kerr
| in the last game of the series be-
tween Chicago and New York. He
was at bat five times, but connected
! for only one hit. iris Speaker, the
| Cleveland manager, who tops the
batters, gathered II hits in Z games
and boosted his mark from All to
AIT, which is Is points better than
that of George Sisler, the ST. Louis
star, who is the runner-up with an
average of .402. Joe Jackson, the
smuggling outfelder of the Chicago
White SoX, is third with mark of
1893, while Ruth is hitting .391. The
averages are players who have par
ticipated in so or more contests and
include games of Wednesday.
Ruth continues to be the sensation
of the league. This was evidenced
again in the series just played in
Chicago between the Yankees and the
White Sex. For the four days a
crowd officially estimated at 10000
came out to witnes the games with a
hope of seeing the big sOuthpaw
slugger crack the ball out in the
field. Only once during the series
was Ruth able to deliver" on his
speciality. That was on the second day
when he drove the ball on a line into
the right field bleachers for four
bases. Claude Williams was pitching
and it was the third homer Ruth had
collected at his expense. This smash
marked Ruth's 38th home run. He
made his Both Thursday, and his 10th
and dist homers Friday. Against Fa-
Der the following day he was unable
to hit, because the game was close
and he was ordered passed. In the
opening game with sCicotte on the
mound Ruth was helpless.

Only 7.6 Per Cent of ArkansanS Have
 Access to Library

Washington, May 4.-Only 7.6 per cent of the population of Arkansas has access to free public libraries, leaving almost 1,5OO,OOO persons not provided with free library service, according to the estimate of the Unit ed States Bureau of Education, made public today.
 The report for Arkansas shows only 10 libraries that are classed as free public libraries, containing 67,- 533 volumes and serving popula- tion of 120,644 persons, leaving 1,433,- 805 persons without access to libra ries. In the judgment of the Bureau of Education the smallest library that can usually be depended on to render an adequate service is one of 5000 volumes. Only four libraries in the state, measured by this stand ard, can be termed Universities of the people," They serve 9O,673 per sons, with 1,483.776 persons practi- cally deprived of the help of an in- stitution which, more than any other, promotes adult self-education. In II counties there is no library with as many as 5000 volumes. Four coun- ties each have library of this size, which might serve as a nucleus off county library system.

Man Held in Bomb Plots of Year Ago
 Commits Suicide

New York, May 3.--The fact that the government had made several arrests in connection with the na- tion-wide bomb plots of last June became known today, from Andrae Salsedo, who confessed to having printed the anarchistic circulars found near the scene of the outra- ges. committed suicide by leaping to Park Row from the fourteenth story of local headquarters of the depart ment of justice.
 William J. Flynn, chief of the de- partment's bureau of investigation. admitted that several other men had been arrested in connection with the plots, that they had confessed and Foreed to be government witnesses. He declined, however, to give their names or to explain what parts they had played.
 From Grief Flynn and M. c. Dana to. Salzdo's lawyer. it was learned that the circulars found at the time of the explosions when attempts were made on the lives of many public men. had been printed in an Italian establishment in Brooklyn where Salzdo was employed.
 According to Danato. Salzdo came to this country about five years ago, did not know English and was not "a man of action" His attorneys said that when anarchists asked him to print the pink circulars. he did not appreciate the gravity of his act.
 Immigration officials at Ellis Isl- and said that warrant for Salzdo's deportation had been granted on March 10 on representation by the department of justice that he was an anarchist.
 Salzdo was held by the department of justice in the hope that a dozen Italians who had fled to Italy or Switzerland would return to the Uni- ted States. Federal agents did not give their reasons fo respecting this return.
 At police headquarters it. was ad- mitted that two other arrests had been made here before Salzdo was taken into custody.
 Chief Flynn said that Salzdo and other government witnesses had ex- pressed fear of being. murdered by the anarchist plotters if it became known they had confessed.

German Warships
 are AllOcated

London, May 3.-Six former Ger man warships. the Baden, IIelgoland. Poscn, Rheinland, Westfalen and Nurbergen and 124 submarines have been allocated to Great Britain, ac- cording to ah announcement n the house of commons today. The Uni ted States will get the Ostfreisland and Frankfurt.
 According to the announcement France has been awarded the Turin gen and Emden and 38 submarines, Japan will get the Oldenburg, Mas sau and Augsburg, and Italy will re- ceive seven submarines. The ships scuttled at Scapa flow, says the an- nouncement, are to go to Great Brit. ain.
 Allocating of the remaining 1a light cruisers, 50 -destroyers and 50 torpedo boats the commoners were informed, depends on the selections madeN by France and Italy from the ships to be surrendered under the Austrian treaty.

Joint Campaign <
 for Senate Likely

Little Rock, May 3.-There is a probability that there will be joint campaigns growing out of the presl ent political situation.
 Senator Kirby, who declined a cam paign with Senator Clarke, but that he will not be averse to a joint campaign with Congressman Cara way, and MT. Caraway has intimated that he is ready to meet all corners. any time, any place. And a joint campaign between MT. Kirby and MT. Caraway would certainly attract at temption.
 And it would be strange if it were impossible to stir up joint cam paign among the eight candidates for governor. Smead Powell says it is unofficially reported. that he is ready for any one, and it is reported that Mir. Floyd is also anxious to measure awards with his opponents.
 So it appears probable that the ennui of the summer will be re- lieved by oratorical contests beside which collegiate contests or con gressional fireworks will pale into insignificance.
