DEMONSTRATIONS
FOLLOW VERDICT

Lexington, KY, Oct. 20-With-
in half an hour after the jury had
been given the case for consider
alton, George Rose, grandfather
of Mary Margaret Rose, alleged
victim of an attack by E. L.
March, wealthy merchant, return
ed a verdict acquitting him, and
he walked from the court room
beseiged by friends who showered
congratulations. The hearing of
the evidence was the feature that
required much of the time. There
was a demonstration in the court
room when the verdict was read
and much confusion followed.
Rose was charged with having
killed March after the formers
granddaughter confided with rela-
tives and told of the treatment
she had received at the hands OF
March.
The story of his promise to his
son as he lay on his death bed to
protect the daughter of his son,
his granddaughter, Mary Mar
garet Rose, was told by Mr.. Rose
when he was placed on the wit
ness stand Tuesday morning.
Two years ago his son, Thomas
Rose, died in a hospital in Lexin9-
ton. Three days before the death
of his son, Mr.. Rose sat at his
bedside all through the night. 1t
was at that time that the dying
man asked Rose to watch over
his daughter, then only II years
old.
Papa, l wish you would look
after little Mary for me-" the dy-
ing man said.
"Son, | will do the best | can,
and will consider her the same as
my own daughter" was the reply
of Mr.. Rose. That was two years
ago, and in the court room Tues
day, Mr.. Rose indicated that he
had not forgotten the pledge he
had made to his.dying son.

GYPSY SMITH IS
IN FAVOR OF LEAGUE
$ Existence Justified If 1t Pre-.
vents One War, He
Says

Louisville, KY, Oct. 20-A pro-
found impression was created in
Louisville when Gypsy Smith, the
famous English Evangelist, who
IS conducting a revival here, de-
clared in favor of the League OF
Nations.
IF the League of Nations" he
said, prevents one war it proves
its right to existence. No man
can be a follower of Jesus Christ
and not be lover of peace and a
propagandist for peace. He was
the Prince of Peace, the author OF
peace and the bringer of peace,
and just in proportion as we are
faithful to Him and the great
principles for which He died we
shall do all in our power to pro-
mote the peace of the world.
Any association or league
which helps to bring about the
harmony and the brotherhood OF
nations is in line with the Divine
will. And somewhere back of my
mind and deeply rooted in my
heart is the feeling that the Di-
vine Father is looking to the great
English-speaking races-America
and England-to bring the reign
of universal peace.
What an ideal for us to strive
after! Along that road lies peace
to the world, glory to God and
good will among men,"
, Mr.. Smith, who has recently ar
rived from England, says the
English people want the League
OF Nations, but that they want it
with guarantees, because a coun-
try with seven hundred thousand
deaths and three million casual
ties in the last great war, does not
want to attach its signature to a
scrap of paper. The English peo-
pie know that little can be accom-
plished through the League, as
long as the greatest English
speaking country in the world is
not n member.

DERBY is FINISHED,
BENCH SHOW ON
All-Age Event On Program For
Thursday - Fox Hunters
Meeting Big Success

With the finishing of the derby
Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock
when the chase was called off, and
the bench show following, officers
Iof the Central Kentucky Fox
Hunters Association are con-
graduating themselves upon the
success attending the f2tH annual
meeting at College Hill, and pre-
parations are being made for the
all-age event which will in all
probability take place Thursday.
This will be finished, it is believed,
by Friday, when the business
meeting will be called to order af-
ter the other routine business has
been disposed of.
There will be no prizes awarded
until the last of the week, after
the close of the contests. The
judges admit they have some Of
the finest dogs in the land to con-
slider. The attendance continues
to be out of the ordinary and the
only essential lacking is a rain,
which has been given up for the
present meet.
|. The work of the dogs, however,
has been very satisfactory, con-
siedring the conditions. The con-
dition of the dogs is good. The
entertainment has not been criti-
cised from the start, from the ar
rival to the entertainment upon
the part of the residents of Col
lege Hill. The new officers will
be one of the important features
of the business meeting to be held
later in the week. The place for
the next meeting will not be chos-
en- at this time, this being decided
at meeting of the executive
board on the first Monday in
August. 1921.
A. w. Parrish, the efficient
Judge who has officiated previous
ly in this capacity, will do the
Judging at the bench show. and
the other judges assigned to duty
are present, and the matter OF
classifying the dogs in a satisfac-
tory manner has been assured.
President r. B. Terrill, OF the
Association, is ever on the job
Hooking after the welfare of the
large number present, as well as
the pushing of the program which
means so much towards contrib
uting to the success of the affair.
The number of hounds being
assembled for the all-age race at
noon Wednesday, indicated the
largest number of dogs ever par
ticipating in this event. They
came from far and near. 1t was
believed the number of dogs in the
debry would be less than record
ed, however, the list for the all
age race is the greatest already
ever reported, and they are still
being entered. This event will
doubtless be one Of the most 'ex.
traordinary in the history of the
organization.
Wednesday morning W. S. Mil
lion came in with eight which will
participate in the race, some OF
them being experienced while
tothers are among the youngest
entered.
Scoring Tuesday'in the derby is
reported as having been led by a
dog owned by Stanley Blake, OF
Berry, KY, and another by John
Luther Sanders and another by
| r. G. Burgess.

NO AMENDMENT NOW
DECIDES COMMITTEE
LEAGUE OF NATIONS HAS NOT
YET HAD TRIAL.
Many Proposals to Be Considered.
Report Will Be Made at Next
Meeting of Assembly.

Geneva, Nov. % (By the Associat,
ed Press) There will be no amend
ments to the covenant of the league
of nations at this session Of the as
sembly if the decision of committee
No. 1-thta on general organization
which has been considering amend
ments, is approved in full session.
Arthur ]. Balfour, chairman OF
the committee, suggested in commit,
tee meeting that it was too early to
draw conclusions as to the working
of the league or to form an idea as
to howk the covenant may be lmprov-
ed. He proposed that the committee
recommend the appointment of a
special committee to consider propos'
ed amendments and report to the
next meeting of the assembly.
The Scandinavian delegates on the
committee insisted. upon the consid,
Grafton Immediately of amendments
they proposed, but they were out,
vxoted. The South American dele
gates accepted Mr.. Balfour's sugges,
ton all the more readily because they
are of the opinion that any amend
ment tosthe covenant should await
nron,sitions that are expected from
the United States after President
elect Harding's consultations on the
subject. They declared it would be
entirely out of order to revise the
covenant in the absence OF one OF
the most important nations of the
world.
The committee on the internation-
81 court decided to send a letter OF
thanks and congratulations to Elihu
Root and other delegates of The
Hague conference. This is as far as
they have got in their work.
Antonio Huneas, head of the
Chilean delegation ana CHAIRMAN VI
the committee on admission of ne"
members, told the Associated Press
today that his committee already was
hard at work and hoped to make ar
early report.
News of the application of Monte
negro for membership in the league
of nations leaked out today. No IN
formation whatever was given on the
subject by the secretariat Of the
league. This 11th hour application
necessarily will come up on the tioo'
