Death from Fall Down Cellar Stairs.

A shocking fatal accident happened
here Sunday morning when Reuben
Curtis had come home from doing his
janitor work at the Congregational
church. He took an armful of wood
and started down the cellar stairs to
replenish his furnace fire. From some
cause which will never be known he
pitched head forward the whole
length of the stairs, striking the cell
lar wall which came very close to
the foot of the stairs, with his head
and face. Mrs. Curtis heard the fall
and rushed to his aid but large
block of wood lay on his head. She
called help at once but life was ex-
tinct. He probably never realized
what happened, as he was bruised be-
yond all recognition. He leaves two
daughters by a former marriage, a
widow and two little girls, IA and II
years of age. He was born in town
and always lived here and was in the
vicinity of 80 years of age. Funeral
services were held Tuesday and con-
Quoted by the Rev. M. Gordon. The
bereaved family have the sympathy
of the entire community.
The condition of the elderly sick
people is not changed for the better.
Much sympathy is felt for Mrs.
Hays, our former pastors wife, who
has been called to Nebraska on ac-
count of the serious condition of her
husband, who has been in a sanitar-
lum there for several weeks.

Basket Ball

Friday night, February #, Barton
academy defeated Derby academy 81
to 36 in one of the most exciting
games seen here this winter. The
Derby team showed better floor work
and passing and at the end Of the
first half were four points ahead
Not many of the home rooters con-
ceded the B. A. boys much chance to
win.
In the second half however, Barton
kept the ball near their basket the
majority of the time and but for some
hard luck shots would have ended
with more of a lead. Each team
made seven baskets in this period,
Carter's five baskets from fouls de-
Gliding the contest.
For Derby Cargill, Moulton and
Percy starred. Smith was the indi-
vidual star of the game, holding his
forward to no baskets and shooting
six himself. Carter played his usual
fashy game, and the last basket
made by Comstock winning the game
was a beauty. Cornish and Valley
did steady work.
Lineup and baskets as follows:
Carter, 9 fouls 4 Boyd O
Comstock 2 Moulton 6
Valley 1 Cargill z
Cornish Cushing
Smith 6 Percy A
The last home game of the season
IS with Orleans, Thursday, February
10. Everybody come and root for a
win. If the boys win this one it will
make a clean slate at home.

SAMMY MADDEN IS
MAKING GOOD IN THE
Texas OIL FIELDS
Maysyllle Man Runs Across Local
Street Waif Who Is Making Good
In Great Texas OIL District
Coming Home Soon.

Maysville friends have Just received
a letter from Mr.. Harry Owens, local
travelling man, from San Antonio,
Texas, in which he says that few
days ago he ran across a fine looking
young man who surprised him by in
PRODUCING himself as Sammy Madden,
formerly Of Maysville.
Sammy will be remembered by most
every one in Maysville. He was quite
a character on the local streets for
years. He left Maysville some years
ago with a company OF Kentucky

short time. On his second trip Sammy
Is said to have almost covered the
whole globe and he has not been
heard from since leaving.
He told Mr.. Owens that he drifted
into San Antonio where he made
friends with a very wealthy oil mag
nate who gave him chance at school
and then put him in his business.
Sammy is now filling a very impor-
tant position in his benefactors busi-
ness and making a salary of 5000 a
month. He informed Mr.. Owens that
he was planning trip back to Mays

PREMIER OF JAPAN
ASSASSINATED FRIDlY
Premier Hara Fatally Stabbed In the
Breast ut Toxic Railroad Station
and Died within an Hour.

Toxic, Nov s. - Premier Hara was
fatally stabbed | the breast Friday at
the railroad station in Toxic. He died
an hour later.
The assassin, who is nineteen years
old and demented, was arrested.
The premier was OH his way to
Kioto to attend a political meeting.
He died in the station where he was
attacked.
Viscount Yasuya Uchlda, foreign
minister, is acting as premier.
The assassination of Premier Hara
comes at a dramatic moment, when
the Japanese delegation was assemb-
ling for the Washington conference
and when japanese are intensely in
terested in the international issues in
which Premier Hara has until now
taken such an important part. He had
been urged to head the delegation to
Washington, but finally decided that
his services would be better employed
at home.
Premier Hara declared in recent
statements that Japan was ready to
accept limitation of her naval estab-
lishment along with the rest of the
world and was always keping in mind
the necessities of her national de-
| fense.
