MOB LYNCHES VERSAILLES ME.
GRO MURDERER

Richard James, negro, was lynched
early Sunday morning at Versailles,
following failure of jury to agree
on a death sentence for the murder
of two men in the Midway distillery
robbery last October.
Seven loaded automobiles were
driven quietly to the Woodford
county at 1880 o'clock Sunday morn
ing. Four men, masked and armed,
aroused Jailer John H. Edgars and
seized him when he appeared at the
door.
The Jailer's keys were taken from
him and he was guarded while the
search of the Jail for James was be-
ing conducted. When the mob's
emissaries unlocked the door to the
negro's cell James was bound and
dragged out to an automobile. The
automobiles were halted at the in
tersection of the Frankfort and Mid
way pike, mile and half from
Versailles. There the prisoner was
hanged to tree, within a few yards
of where another negro was lynchei
by a mob twenty-five years ago.
James confessed to the mob, just
before he was swung up, that he had
killed both men at the distillery, &C
cording to an unverified report.
Woodford county officials, notified
by the jailer, cut down the body at
O'Clock Sunday morning. Jailer
Edger insisted that he did not recog-
nize any of the men. The four who
seized him wore black masks.
James, IS years old and married,
was placed on trial in Versailles,
Thursday, charged with the murder
of Ben Rogers and Homer Nave,
young white men, killed one night
last October, when distillery ware
house at Midway, ten miles from
Versailles, was broken into by three
negroes.
James was indicted for murder
and the two other negroes were in
dicted as accessories. The jury was
dismissed Saturday afternoon by
Circuit Judge Stout after being out
twenty-four hours, when one juror
refused to inflict the death penalty.

Robert Lee Stout, Judge of the
Bourbon Circuit Court, will speak at
the Commercial Club noon luncheon

as POSTMASTER. The announcement
that Judge Stout will speak will be
welcomed not only by the members

A CORRECTION

Through misinformation from a
supposedly reliable source, an item
in the Millersburg news in recent
issue credited the Millersburg Col
lege basket ball team with a defeat
at Winchester by the Wesleyan
College team. 1t should have read
Millersburg Graded School team.
The Millersburg College basket
ball team has made record this
season to be proud of and the young
women did not take kindly to the
impression that they had been de-
feated by the X. w. c. team. A SIM
ilarity of names led to the mistake,
which is hereby corrected that the
public may understand.

ON MEMS STYLES
August Body Is in q SGrt0ridl
QudRddry With Thomas
Absent.

WASHINGTON, July 1.-The august
and dignifed United States Senate IS in
a sartorial quandary.
The Senate had no official notification
that summer is here, and there is doubt
as to juyt when the Senate may adorn
itself WITH summer garments.
This perplexing situation comes about
through the failure of the voters OF Colo
rsdo TO return one Charles S. Thomas
TO the Senate.
For several years the former Senator
Thomas has been the Official harbinger
OF summer for ii E Senator perhaps
his toupee has been the harbinger.
Thomas was a fair judge Of weather,
and when he was finally convinced that
summer had arrived for 4 stay he entered
the Senate chamber minus his beautiful
iron-gray toupee, and with his pink dome
shining unblushinkly. The dome contin-
ued 10 shine until cold weather came,
and then the toupee came out OF the
moth balls and covered the dome again.
The occasion Of the slowing away Of
the Thomas toupee was always celebrated
in the Senate. Thomas frequently made
a speech on warm weather and toupees.
and he was always the subject of con-
(ratulations from his colleag CUES. After
the toupee had disappeared members Of
the Senate felt safe 10 sally forth in
hanneIs, Palm Beach suits and minus
their "galluses"
With the absence of the Thomas toupee
and the approach Of warm weather the
Senate now faces the serious question
of determining for itself when the sum
mer clothes shall come out.
This summer finds a Senate greatly
changed from that OF the last heated
season, and new summer styles are pre-
dicted. Henry Cabot Lodge Will, as
usual, observe the arrival OF summer By
DOMINIC a starched white vest, and on
real hot days hewiu even 20 as far as to
wear light trousers. Senator Frank
Brandegee, OF Connecticut, will celebrate
the varmest days by trotting out his
two famous scarfs-One Of most violent
green and the other OF burnt orange that
speaks for itself Thomas Helm. Of
Alabama, viii pay his tribute TO "Old
SoT' with a stlffly starched white duck
suit and 4 boiled shirt that is equally
stiffly starched. Senator Jim Watson, Of
Indiana, will wear his famous prison
stripped flannel trousers. and his col
league, Harry New, will discard his black
felt sombrerO for one Of Panamanian
straw weave that is equally broad
These sartOrial effects are assured.
But what about the new Senators :
How are they going 10 greet summer
They have no fashion leader in the Sen
ate now and haven't had since Jim Ham
Lewis took his gray silk sash, his salmon
pink silk shirt and his silk suits back 70
Illinois.
Even the champion Of the "gallus" and
r no vest-Asle Gronna. Of North Dakota
has gone.
Surely the troubles Of the Senate are
many.
As for the House. Uncle joe answers
the question there In May he begins
dispensing with a buttoned "wescott,
button by button. When the veteran
legislator from Illinois finally casts his
vest into the discard and appears in q
boiled shirt, "galluses," and an alpaca
coat over his arm, then the House knows
it is time TO put on summer clothes.
