Artistic CredO in

because she despaired of ever answer

asked by her audiences and her inter
viewers Of how she understands the
work Of the classic masters. After
asking, "Why don't people believe me
when l talk if they believe me when
play? After all, play only what

that when you play Bach you must put

splendid choir and the congregation in
the singing. Just what the results

can state that the results We're not
near what was hoped for by those
who brought the meeting to Lexing-
ton, led by Rev. H. R. Rose, pastor Of
the local Southern Methodist church.
As late as the middle Of the second
week Bro. Rose stated that Evange-
list Tucker was preaching against an
iceberg, so far as the church was con-
cerned. However, there was consider
able interest and it is to be hoped
in fact, it is a fact-that Lexington
received good-lasting good-from

and the cooperation he was given
while here.

FORD AND MUSCLE SHOALS.

Henry Ford's bid for the Muscle
Shoals plant appears to have stirred
up others who probably knew previ-
ously as we'll as Mr.. Ford did the val
ue Of the great natural power there,
but were waiting for time and threat
ened decay to bring an opportunity to
yet i at a reduced price. The idea
was to pick it up off the bargain coun-
ter.
Possibly there was some method in
the madness that caused Congress to
refuse to make appropriation for the
completion Of the great project.
IN these days when hydro-electrie
power is eagerly sought in all avail
able places, and when the demand for
nitrates as fertilizer and other use,
makes their manufacture assuredly
profitable, such natural advantage
and such an elaborate plant as that at
Muscle Shoals will not be neglected
1t might be if it were in Central
Asia or at the North Pole, but not so
in these United States of America in
region of easy access, on naviga-
bie ilNIi anu Suppiitd Win TAM odd
facilities.
Just what the outcome of the Ford
offer may be is not yet determined,
and other mooted proposals have not
materialized, but capital will be
found to develop and operate the
power at Muscle Shoals and to utilize
the work that has been done there by
the government.
Henry Ford, fair and sanguine, has
brought the matter from under cover.
He is entitled to that credit if he does
no more, 1t is hoped that he may
have his proposition accepted, and
that he may realize from il all that he
expects.
Political and sectional prejudice
cannot count long against anything
that offers such opportunity for cap
tai as Muscle Shoals. and since Mr..
Ford has lead the way. something

which finally resulted in score Of

shall was worked on first base in the
place of Pete Brown who was so un-
fortunate to get a little bone in his
wrist broken in the game with Clifton
last week. Henry McNabb pitched
and handled his end of the game to
his credit. He was hit several times
BY the strong Bemis hittsrs, but with
little damage as to results. The peo-
pie of Bemis treated the players and
visitors tip-top and it is hoped that
they will come to Lexington for am
other game before the season ends.

ALBERT MOODY EXONORATED
BEFORE MAGISTRATE.

Albert, son of Frank Moody, living
four miles South of Lexington, was
arrested last Saturday on a State
warrant charging him with killing
his father-in-law, jim Brunt, a few
weeks ago. Albert was brought to
Lexington, arranged before Esq. j.
W. Threadgill, refused bail and COM
mitted to Jail to await his trial which
was transferred to Esq. H. E. Graper.
The trial came off last Tuesday and
consumed practically all day, quite
an array of witnesses being examined,
with the result that Moody was exon
Grated of the charge against him. So
far as the proof went, the elder
daughter of Frank Moody, only, saw
Brunt fall and she had looked out the
door of the cook room of the Frank
Moody home, following the report of
the first gunshot. Mrs. Moody and
three unmarried daughters were at
home when the killing occurred and
all heard the gunshots, but, as stated
only the elder girl saw Brunt fall
Brunt had come to the Moody home to
get a mule to plow that afternoon, so
the three Moody girls went to the
pond in the horse lot, drove up the
mules and fed the one Brunt was to
pillow, after which they returned to
the house-and all that time Brunt
was sitting on the Moody porch or in
the yard waiting for the mule to get
done eating. Finally Brunt went to
the barn to catch the mule and when
he walked through the hallway be-
tween the two parts of the barn and
had reached the end stall which con-
tained the mule, some one shot him.
Brunt run toward the front of the
barn and went just outside the hall
way, the second shot was fired, kill
ing him. This may be the last of in
vestigation of the killing of Brunt un-
less something further developes and
the murder may pass as an unsolved
mystery, There is hardly chance in
the world to solve a one-sided killing.

REDPETH CHAUTAUQUA

what might be termed almost frost.
The League members entrusted with
the feature did their full duty in the
effort to sell season tickets-but the
fewest number of professional or bust
ness men would buy and the outlook
could not fail to be, discouraging.
The Redpath is one of the very best
of Chautauqua aggregations in the
United States and the brand, "Red-
path" is sufficient guarantee that the
entertainment and instruction is
first -class-and that is what Major
Joe r. Hanley, who delivered Tues
day night one of the best lectures ev-
er heard in Lexington, heard when he
was walking about. town Tuesday af-
ternoon: First citizen: THAT thing

"No, it don't bring a dollar to Lex
ington." Those who had the good
fortune to hear the Hanley lecture
say it was suburb--yet when the
statement was made that Major Han
ley would be glad to meet the people
after his talk, hardly a man and just
a few women offered to shake hands
with him. However, the Major took it
all right and said he recognized the
fact that people had to be educated
to Chautauquas. We deeply regret
bad eyes keeps us from attending and
enjoying these public things which
are worth while. 1t will take consid-

FLOWERS AND SEASONS.

The relation of the eolors Of flow
ers to the seasons has attracted the
attention of Canadian professor,
who finds that. of 539 Towering
plants in the provinces of Quebec and
Ontario, about one-third have white
flowers. Yellow flowers come next,
and comprise about one-quarter of the
total. Puppies and blues form about
one-ninth of them. White flowers
are commonest in April, May and
June, whereas yellow are frequent in
July, August and September. One
cannot help noticing that the spring
flowers have delicate colors and as a
rule. whites or pale pinks. yellows
and blues, whereas the autumn flow
efs have much stronger shades of yal-
low. blue and purple.
