PUBLICITY MAN OF Big FAIR
SAYS GOOD WORD Of BAND
Additional Compliments Are Heaped
Upon Band BY Managers Of
Publicity at Ohio State
Fair.

The following letter will be read
with much interest.
Columbus, Ohio, September s, 1921.
Colonel j. Barbour Russell,
Maysville, Kentucky.
Dear Mr.. Russell; - Just line to
express my sincere appreciation Of the
work of the Maysville Boys Band and
yourself during the Ohio State Fair.
Aside from the quality of the music
itself, which was excellent, the most
noteworthy feature in my estimation
of your organization was the fact that
you and your boys were willing To
play anywhere at any time. You can
not realize what relief 1t was to find
that we always had some one on tap to
cover any emergency. | have heard
any number of compliments concern
ing the splendid appearance OF the
Nlaysville Boys Band and the nature
Of their work.
II am certainly glad that the band
members enjoyed the fair and were
pleased with their treatment while In
Columbus. May | express the hope
that our cordial relation may be con.
tinued in the future.
81 am, sincerely yours,
"WM. D. GRIFFITH,

WIEDEMAN'S HERE SUNDAY.

Sundays game between the locals
and the Wiedemans Of Newport should
be one of the best of the season with
the additional two new players that
they have secured. 1t remains to be
seen whether Cooper can fill the shoes
Of Boskins like "Bosk" filled them
himself but by shifting him to the
outfield with the strain of pitching
taken off of him he will prove a val
liable asset for he is a natural ball
player.
Play will start at in order to allow
the visitors to take their train that
evening and it is hoped that rain will
not delay the game since our boys
have not proved themselves to be good
mud horses. In their last two defeats
the slow condition of the field has
hampered their fast fielding and aid
ed both Portsmouth and Golde.
Valoden will make his initial ap-
pearance in a Maysville uniform Sun
day and from the time the umpire an
nounces the battery to be Cooper and
Monk it should be a fight from the
very start.

LOVE AFFAIR IS
THOUGHT CAUSE OF
SUICIDE ATTEMPT
Wendell Breeze Attempts To Take His
Own Life at Early Hour Saturday
Was To Have Wed at West
Union, Ohio, Saturday.

Wendell Breeze, twenty-year-old son
OF Mr.. and Mrs. George Breeze, Of Ok
lahoma suburb, and an employee Of
the Breeze Meat Market, attempted to
take his own life at a point near the
Maysville cemetery at about $3.50
o'clock Saturday morning by shooting
himself through the body near the
heart with a .3S caliber revolver.
The cause of young Breeze's rash act
is thought to have been q love affair.
1t is said he was to be married Satur-
day at West Union to a well known
young woman Of the East End. Ar
rangements had been made for them to
motor to West Union leaving at six
o'clock Saturday morning with two
friends.
He left his home in his automobile
and drove past the Frank Wood second
hand store in the Fifth ward where he
purchased .3S caliber Smith and
Wesson revolver. He then drove his
machine to point near the Maysville
cemetery where he is supposed to have
shot himself. Wounded, he drove his
automobile down Forest avenue and
when near the M. E. church, he Is
thought to have tainted. The machine
ran into rock pile and stopped. A
woman living nearby, seeing that he
was ill, ran to the machine and asked
him the trouble. He told her that he
had shot himself and she called assist
ance.
In the automobile was found note
written by young Breeze and address,
ed to his mother in which he made
reference to his love for his mother
and the young woman. He told that he
was shooting himself and added "This
is the best way"
The injured man was taken to the
home of his parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
George Breeze in Oklahoma and DR..
A. O. Taylor was called to dress the
wound. He had been shot entirely
through the body about one inch above
the heart.
Breeze was employed by his uncle,
Mr.. Frank Breeze, at the meat market
at West Second and Sutton streets,
and on Friday night at the carnival
grounds, he had told his uncle that he
was going to West Union Saturday to
be married and had drawn his weeks
salary.
1t is understood that there were OBJ
jections to the marriage and this is
thought to be the cause Of the rash act.
At 2:S0 o'clock Saturday afternoon
reports from Mr.. Breeze's beside were
to. the effect that he was getting along
nicely and physicians are of the opin-
ion that he will recover,
