CAN YOU BEAT IT?

The most remarkable suit to be
heard in the Laurel county court
in the recollection of officials was
an action for SO damages filed
against young man of Lily for
the vVrecking OF rocking chair
in which he and the daughter OF
the house attempted to sit at the
same time. The father brought
the suit, employing three lawyers,
and he recovered the amount sued
for in the court of Squire Miller,
This finding was reversed at the
hearing before Judge Luker. The
paramount issue was how strong
should rocking chair be, and the
court held this one had not been
strong enough.

Strike Conditions Some Better

Chicago, April 13-The main
strength of the striking railroad
workers today was exerted east
Of Pittsburg and the Pacific
Northwest. Conditions in the rest
OF the country, Railroad Brother
hood leaders and railway officials
said, are pointing to a return to
normal. Around New York pas
senger service was hard hit when
three divisions of the Staten Is
land Rapid Transit Company shut
down and more fremen quit on
the Long Island railroad, all to
the Inconvenience Of 10000 addi-
tional commuters, with the aid
of citizens. who helped to man
trains, are increasing the amount
OF food moved into the city.
However, in Chicago conditions
are sufficiently improved to per-
NIT lifting OF several railroad en-
bargoes.

MADISON SEEMS
STRONG FOR COX
Little Sentiment Apparent Here
For Any Other Candidate For
Democracy In Nation

Judge ii. G. Rice got a telegram to
go to Louisville this afternoon to at
tend meeting of democrats who are
In favor of the nomination of Gov. Cox
OF Ohio for the presidency at head
quarters established there by former
Senator Johnson N. Camden of Wood
ford county. On account of the illness
of Mrs. Rice, he was unable to attend.
The telegram to Judge Rice was sent
by Senator Charles M. Harriss, of YER
sailles. Although Judge Rice was not
able to attend the meeting, it is un-
derstood that he notified the Cox head
quarters that Cox sentiment in Mad
ison county is largely in the ascendcn-
cy. In fact, there seems to be little
sentiment for any of the other men
mentioned as prospective democratic
candidates outside Of Hoover and it is
generally conceded that he has wholly
eliminated himself from consideration
by democrats by his statement that
he desires the republican nomination
and not honors from the democratic
party. It seems to be probable that
a strong sentiment is going to develop
in Kentucky for a delegation to the
the San Francisco convention instruct
ed for Cox, although some strong ele-
ments Of the party are urging for an
uninstructed delegation. Many demo-
Gratis undoubtedly believe that Gov.
Cox is the only democrat who has any
possible chance to win this year and
his friends believe that he is a sure
winner if he is nominated.

Elmer PARK WANTED
TO WORK IN OHIO

Elmer Park, who went off with an
employment agent to work in a fac
tory at Springfield, Ohio, and didn't
tell his foster mother, Mrs. Bette Park
where he was going, caused her and
local officials a lot of trouble Monday.
The man who had young Park and
27 other youths in tow, was caught at
Cincinnati when Deputy Sheriff SAINT
Bush phoned to officers there. Park
was put on the night train and return
ed home He is large for his age of
Ii years, and this may have deceived
the immigration agent into thinking
he had right to employ him. Of the
81 youths who went with him 25 were
colored and the~other two white boys.

MANY FROM HERE GO
TO "D!vINE Heal. Err

Several car loads of folks from this
city and county have been going to
Lexington to attend the missions held
by James Moore Hickson, the "divine
healer" at Christ Church Cathedral. A
number of afflicted from this section
have gone over in hopes that his inter-
cession and prayer at the Throne may
be an instrument in restoring them to
complete health of else improve their
condition. Several remarkable cures
are reported as having been obtained,
some of those affected being well
known or related here
The first healing mission was held
by DR.. Hickson Monday. The church
was crowded The Lexington Leader
said that there was nothing spectacu-
lar to be seen or heard. If any eX-
pected to be borne in helpless and to
leave the sanctuary whole, they would
have been disappointed. Before open
ing his ministrations, DR.. Hickson said
"This is your mission not mine.
'To Christ and to Him alone, you
come. Don't be discouraged. Instan-
eous cures do happen, but as we are
fit to receive we may expect to receive.
Conversion is gradual. 1t is natural
to expect gradual healing. We dare
put no limitations on God, but it is
proper we regard our limitations to
receive. The issue is in the hands OF
God-source of all healing.
"God is here. You will not go away
empty. Our souls as much as our bod
les may need healing. Barriers to
communion with Him must be removed
before we can feel His healing"
"Look to Him alone" he said. "The
attitude in which you approach Goo
must control what you get out of this
mission-your faith, your selfishness
your sympathy.

WORK STARTS WHEN
MONEY is PAID IN
Federal Highway Construction to
Be Pushed By State Road
Department

Work on building the Federal High
way from here to Lancaster and on
westward will begin just as soon as all
private subscriptions have been paid
in and certified to the State Road De-
partment at Frankfort.
This was announced at the meeting
of road boosters from seven of the
counties concerned, held at Danville
late last week. In Madison none of
the money raised by private subscrip-
tion or otherwise is to be handled by
the Fiscal Court or the County Road
Department. The State Bank and
Trust Company has been appointed de-
pository for the fund. 1t will certify
all amounts received directly to the
State Road Department, which will ap-
portion the half of the cost of con-
struction to be paid by the Federal
government and the state, just as soon
as the private subscriptions are in and
just as quick as they are paid in, the
work will start. This will be good
news to everyone who is interested in
seeing this model highway constructed
this year if possible, or at least, work
started in vigorous fashion.
A sort of Highway Association was
organized at the meeting in Danville.
Its purpose will be to push matters
and see to it that no one "goes to
sleep on the job" at any time. The
members from Madison county are
Messrs. NJ. C. Covington, w K. Price
and J. G. Baxter Three men were
named from each county along the
route. Joseph E. Robinson, of Gar
rard, was appointed chairman of the
association. Those from Madison who
attended the meeting at Danville were
Judge w. X. Price, County Engineer
]. G. Baxter, County Attorney o. P.
