"SONNY" WHITNEY DEFEND
ANT IN HEART BALM SUIT
Oriental Dances Brings Suit Against
Harry Payne Whitney's Son Maxi
ing Most Serious of Charges.

New York, July 21. - The cloud of
scandal which has lowered for almost
two years over young Cornelius Van
derbilt Whitney, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Harry Payne Whitney, burst today
when it became known that Evan Bur-
rows Fontaine, beautiful Oriental
dancer, subsequently in moving pic
lures, had begun two actions against
Sonny" Whitney, as he is known.
The suits involve "Sonnys" alleged
promise to marry Miss Fontaine and
the paternity of her child, whom she
calls Cornelius Vanderbilt Whiteney,
Jr.
The two suits were begun in August
of last year, in Saratoga county, N. Y,
by the serving of summons upon
young Whitney while his father and he
were enjoying the racing season. Dur
ing the II months since summonscs
were served, efforts have been made
by the Whitneys to settle the suits out
of court.
Miss Fontaine's mother today said
my daughter and Mr.. Whitney were
very much in love with each other bu
his family objected to the marriage"

LITTLE INTEREST
TO Be TAKEN IN
CONGRESS FIGHTS
Organizations Of Both Parties Take
Little Interest in Special Registra-
tion FOrecasting Little Fight in
Congress Race.

That there will be little interest
taken by either of the two dominant
political parties in Mason county in
the Congressional primaries to be
held in August, is forecast by the little
interest shown by the local political
organizations in the special registra-
tion held at the office of the Mason
County Clerk Saturday.
Political leaders in both parties
seemed to take no interest whatever in
the listing of their new supporters
who are just becoming of age nor was
there the usual securing of the city to
see that every voter who has moved
his residence, also changed his voting
precinct according to law.
AS usual thing, the County Clerks
office is we'll filled with political lead
ers who keep a close tab on the mat
ter, automobiles are used to see that
all voters are properly listed but Sat
urday no such-activity was shown.
While there are three candidates
for the Congressional nomination in
the Republican primary and four can
1idates for the nomination on the
Democratic ticket, there appears to be
no great interest in behalf of any one
of the candidates on either ticket in
this county.

FORMER KENTUCkIAN
HELD FOR MURDER TO
make INSANITY PLEA
Continuance Of Leaverton's Trial on
Murder Charge Granted for Pro-
curing Of Affidavlts for the
Defendant.

Hillsboro, Ohio.-The trial OF Edgar
Leaverton charged with murder in
the first degree for killing Fay Bal
lard. Of Greenfield, which was set for
trial on Monday, has been continued
until July 31st, at the request of tho
attorneys for the defendant and
against the objection OF the attorneys
for the state, says the News Herald.
Leaverton's attorneys set forth that
they desired to take depositions for
their client; one Of man in Kentucky
and one OF a man in Detroit, Mich; ;
that these witnesses would testify that
Leayerton fell from horse a number
Of years ago and that from their OBJ
servation OF him that they believed
that he had not been right mentally
since that time. The attorneys for the
state would not admit that these men
would testify as II was claimed that
they would. Under the rule Judge Nc
Bride then granted a continuance and
by agreement OF all the attorneys the
date OF the trial was SGT for July 81.
This continuance is reasonable as
the attorneys for the defense are en-
titled to n reasonable time in which TO
prepare their case and II the case is
tried on July 81. 1t will be a quick
hearing OF a murder case.
The action OF Leaverton's attorneys
In the request for continuance dis
closes the fact that their defense will
be based on til grounds that Leaver-
ton was insane when he committed the
act

FEARS III
MAY LOSE RAILROAD.
Fleming Gazette says:

Fleming Gazette says:
Flemingsburg without a railroad.
remedy is offered in the truck competi-
ton as now exists. Although freight
rates are less by rail on most goods,
yet many business houses here are
trucking their goods from Maysville
for reasons not known AS the rail-
roads have to furnish and keep up
thier own right Of way, while the
trucks get theirs for practically moth
ing, the trucks probably have some ad-
vantage. Anyway, situation is pre-
sented. which If it should mean the
loss Of the railroad for Flemingsburg,
would be great setback to our city
and community. The contingency of
Flemingsburg without rail service is
not pleasant one to contemplate.
