YORK ON NORMAL GYM
TO BEGIN AT ONCE

The contract for the new gym
rasium for the Eastern Kentucky
State Normal School has been
let to Lewis w. Hardin. local
contractor. Bidding was very
close with only few dollars be-
tween this and bids made by two
other local contractors. The
work is to begin Immediately.
The contract calls for a sub
stantial frame building GA feet
by 1904 feet. There will be a
twenty foot space for basket
bail. The floor will be of hard
wood maple. The building is to
be so constructed that it may be
converted into an auditorium
which will seat 1,100 people.
This will be of great service
during the terms when the en-
rollment is large, as the chapel
seats only 600. This will be used
on special occasions when the
towns people are invited.
AS this is to be a frame
structure it is to be built back
eff the ball diamond near the
Gibson line. This is to relieve
the fire hazard.

Shelton says Rothweil struck
his father a severe blow and
was in the act of drawing his

NOTHING new IN
RENAKER MYSTERY

The Winchester Sun said: De-
tectives from the Cal Grim De-

into headquarters on Sunday af-
ternoon, arrived in Winchester
again on Monday night and be
gan further Investigations in the
Staying of Leon Renaker which
occurred Tuesday morning at an
early hour at his home on Lex
ing avenue.
Additional evidence has been
secured since Monday afternoon,
but will not be made public by
the officers and detectives. Every
possible clue that has been given
the officers is being sifted to the
bottom and it is felt that by keep
ing the information which they
have secured from the public that
they will be able to secure more
valuable information than they
won d were it spread broadcast
The theory has been advanced
by a number of residents that
there is a we'll organized band of
law-breakers who have represen-
tatives that are securing all data
that is being secured by the local
authorizes and are turning it over
to them which tends to- keep the
guiltyaparty or parties posted as
TO just what procedure is being
mace from time to time. Win
chester. as all residents fully real
ize. is not free from a law-break-
ING element that would not leavc
stone unturned to protect
member of the band who had
committed a crime and for this
reason certain information which
has been given out has been def
rimental to the progress of tho
officials who are bending their
every effort to see that the mur-
derer is apprehended.
The detectives have some well
founded clues that they are sift-
ing to the very bottom and have
information that it is thought viii
eventually lead to an arrest. Sus-
poets are being shadowed in an cf
fort to secure information that
would clear up the mystery.

Strain Was Too Great.
The long trial of nine weeks at
Waukegan, where the governor
was charged with conspiracy to de-
fraud the state of interest on state
funds during his term as
state treasurer, several years
ago, had been a heavy strain
both on the governor and his wife.
Mrs. Small, however, had borne up
under the strain exceedingly well,
It had appeared, until she was
stricken and sank into the gov
ernor's arms as the noise of the
eelebrators filled the neighborhood
about their home.
Physicians who attended Mrs.
Small at the time offered no hope
for her recovery and throughout
Sunday and last night she lay in a
state of coma as the governor and
their sons and daughter watched by
the bedside. The governor refused
10 leave her.
60 Years Old.
Mrs. Small was born Dec. II,
1861, the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Moore of Kankakee county,
and had lived virtually all her life
N this county. Her parents were
Prominent farmers and she grew
70 womanhood amid farming sur
nundings, as did the governor.
Their interests throughout their
lives have been closely bound to
agriculture, and the governor long
mas maintained large farms and
neen interested in agricultural and
livestock work in addition to his
interests as a banker and in poll
tics.
Mrs. Small and the governor were
married Nov. 81, 1888, and spent
