Big SHIPMENT OF
CORN TO RICHMOND

Big shipments of corn are being
received in the city and the Earring
mill represents at present what is
really to a great extent an immense
storage house, since the shipments
are the heaviest for some time, there
being corn shortage in Madison
county this year, although the pro-
duction is never sufficient for a great
sale, most of it being retained for
stock feed.
The demand for this product is
very great and good prices are being
secured by those having it to sell.
Richmond consumes thousands of
bushels, converted into meal, it. is
said, and while the shipments are
very steady at certain periods of the
year, they are not usually IS extern
sive as at the present time, and, to-
gether with the great quantities of
wheat arriving at the mill daily, it is
a scene of great activity.

turned To Knox County To
Be Tried

That Chester Phelps, Bradley Small
wood and Milford Lawson, three
young men held in the local jai
awaiting to be returned to Knox
county the first of the month to be
investigated by a grand jury for the
alleged murder of Fred Fields, are
| innocent, asserts each of them.
All declare they will be able to vim
dicate themselves. They are prepared
to return and face an court, they
state, only asking that justice be
done. All admitted with the exception
of Lawson, when visited in their cell
for an interview, that they knew
Fields, who claimed that he had never
seen the man. Phelps said Fields, who
was a returned soldier, was a friend
of his, and they were together the
day before the murder, and had a
nice time. He said Fields had, so the
a revolver, which he deposited at the
desk the previous night. Phelps said
he was shocked at the news of
Fields death; that he left Fields at
3 o'clock on the afternoon previous to
the crime, and knew absolutely moth
ing about it. He spoke of his army
record, but incidentally made no
boast, and only gave information
when questions were asked regarding
his service. He said he fought under
Captain Spencer, detailed the manner
in which he was wounded at the bat
tie of BelIeau Wood, which was shell
on EARTH" according to his descrip-
ton. He did previous duty on the
Mexican border, and also has an ex-
emplary record as result. Small
wood has also served in the army in
Mexico and asked for and obtained a
discharge in order TO get to go to
France and fight, but the a1nistice
was signed after he had been in the
service for but short time. Lawson
stated that he had never known Fields
and denied emphatically having any
thing to do With the murder. He
stated that he had money of his own
and did not need to kill anyone for
it. He declares there has been big
mistake through his having been
held for the crime.

In his reference to prohibition
and law enforcement he said:
"People ever will differ about
the wisdom of the enactment of
a law-there is divided opinion re-
garding the Eighteenth Amend
ment and the laws enacted to
make it operative-but there can
be no difference of opinion about
honest law enforcement. x
Modification or repeal is the right
of free people, whenever the de

timent commands, but perversion
and evasion mark the paths of the
failure of government itself"

Up and down the hillside road

of four blue-blooded Kentucky
thoroughbred race horses are be-
ing hardend for a great cross
country contest to be held along

of the best known trainers and
.horsemen in the South, has
charge Of the band of thorough
breds, and with assistance of
jockeys and other helpers. has es-
tablished a training camp at
Boonesboro Beach. The topog-
raphy Of the country in that de
llghtful section is ideal for giving
the animals which will represent
Kentucky in the big contest, Just
the toughness and stamina that
they will need in the big race.
There are good soft road along
the river, hard pixies, rocky hill
sides, and Instructions that must
be cleared. 1t Is thought that the
entries IN the big contest will find
nothing along the 3OO-mile route
to be covered. TIL the Kentucky
horses have rot encountered in
their training work at Boones-
bOrO.
The four thoroughbreds that
Mr.. Woodard is fitting for the
big test will represent Kentuc-

Cromwell is secretary. The club
may acquire as many as Il to rep
resent the thoroughbred in the
contest, but at present Mr. Wood
ard is training four They are
David Craig. Moscowa. U-24 and
Helmet. David Craig has been
InOn as more or less of a sprinter

believed that he viii "go on"

distance horse. us has not
much OF reputation as racer.
but Helmet was a great runner.
and has been string some good
ones at the farm of his owner, E.
r. Bradley, tho famous turfman,
near Lexington. The club bought
the first three but Bradley mere
ly loaned the use of Helmet.
The endurance riding test will
be over a distance of 500 miles
from Fort Ethan Allen. Vermont,
to Camp Devons. Mass. 1t will
take place from October II to Is.
Mr.. Woodard is confident that he
will have the horses entrusted to
his care in the finest possible
shape to answer any test by the
time the date of the big endur-
ance contest rolls around.
