irish REPUBLIC" FUNDS.
A move has been made by Off
Gals representing the Irish Free
State to tie up the funds lying in
banks of this country which were
raised by the sale of bonds for the
Irish Republic An injunction
has been granted by Justice William
Burr of the New York Supreme
Court preventing the withdrawal OF
these funds by the De Valera fac
ton pending legal decision as to
their rightful ownership
This action is said to be one of
the severest blows the Irish lrregu-
lars have received, but there can
be little doubt of the justice OF the
proceeding. There is difference on
the Irish question among those VINO
subscribed for the bonds in this
country as there is in Ireland, some
upholding the right Of De Valera
and his friends to use the money for
their unhappy cause and others urg-
ing the claims of the Free Staters.
The settlement OF the question
of ownership will be a lengthy
and delicate proceeding, but it may
operate for good in that the stop
page Of funds may check the mis-
guided activities of De Valera, his
supporters in this country and his
followers in Ireland.

JOHN RUSSELL GIVEN LIFE
IN ROY sASSER CAST

The Knox County jury which con-
demned John Bussell, OF Pineville,
last week for the murder Of Roy
Sasser, OF Grays, issued a vote of
thanks to Judge Ruby Lafoon, of
Madisonville, who had charge of the
trial and to the Fiscal Court and
Sheriff for the splendid manner in
which they we're treated. Each man
had a separate cot, with two clean
sheets, two comforts and two pill
lows in a nicely furnished room on
the third floor OF the court house
which had every modern conven-
ience. 1t is suggested that the third
floor Of our own court house be fin
ished so that decent jurymen, doing
their duty by their county, may not
have to bunk on the floor.
We call the attention Of members
Of our Fiscal Court to this matter
in the full knowledge that they are
men who get things done.

ALFALFA NOT FITTED

AS a silage crop, alfalfa is not alto
gether a success. In fact, where 9th
er crops, well fitted for this method
of preservation, can be grown profit
ably II is seldom advisable to use IL
for this purpose. one reason corn Is
SO popular for silage is that II yields
a large tonnage at one harvesting,
something which cannot be said Of al
falfa.
Alfalfa is somewhat difficult to han
die with ordinary silage machinery
and is hard to pack properly in the
silo. II often becomes moldy and
Shiny, as do various other legumes,
when put up in this way. Special
care must be taken in packing this
silage because Of the high percentage
Of protein in il which causes il 70
putrefy instead OF fer1nent when too

There are times, however, when al

COUNTY SCHOOL FUND
SAID TO BE SHORT

Seen in regard to the reported
shortage of s1O,277 OF county
school funds, as stated in the public
press recently, E. B. Hemphill,
former superintendent under whose
administration the shortage is al
legged to have taken place, has the
following to say:
"A reply to statement OF county
finances in the Courier journal in
regard to settlement of Ex-County
Supt. E. B. Hemphill will appear in
the columns Of this paper in a short
time, explaining fully both sides of
settlement to the satisfaction Of the
most curious. (Signed) E. B. Hemp
hill, Ex-Supt Knox County, KY"
The report which is made by W
L. Threikeld to the Office Of George
Colvin, state superintendent, claims
that there is due tie Knox County
Board Of Education the sum Of
$1O,277, which money should be
turned into the treasury of the
county.
Among the alleged incidents
mentioned in the report is that on
October %, 1921, B. P. Walker,
sheriff of Knox County, issued .
check to E. B. Hemphill, county
superintendent at that time, for
$500 for school tax. AItho there
were two banks in Barbourville, the
county seat Of Knox, the report says
this check was deposited in bank
at Middlesboro, Bell County, TO the
individual credit Of Mr.. Hemphill
and the entire amount was checked
out not later than November 2, fol-
lowing.
According TO reports prepared by
the former county superintendent of
receipts and expenditures, the audi
tors report sets out, there were pur
chased between February, 1919,
and May, 1920, three typewriters,
costing S26S.99, Auditor Threikeld
states. Checks were given and are
in the files, the report continues,
but declares that the former super
intendent said he purchased only
one typewriter. None Of these type
writer's are in the Office Of the board
ii is stated.
Continuing, the report says that
the board authorized the former
superintendent to purchase a horse
OF a horse and buggy, to be used in
the discharge of his duties. Reports
of the ex-superintendent, it is stat
ed, show he purchased a horse Aug
ust 10, 1920, and issued a check for
800. June 29, 1921, the report con
tinues, he purchased a horse for
$3.50 and issued another check. He
also bought a saddle, blanket and
bride for S26.75, it is set out. The
superintendent, the report quotes
him as saying, declared he bought /.
only one horse. Neither OF the
horses is in the possession OF the |.
county board. nor is the saddle or
blanket, Mr.. Threikeld reported,
adding that the former superintend-
ent said he sold the animal that was
purchased at a loss OF $25. The
records OF the Office do not show
that the remainder Of the purchase
price was paid into the treasury, it
is stated. ."-Louisville Herald.

He started out by topping a drive and
then going into a trap for a 6 on the

Congratulations upon the victory of
champi onship at Wimbledon on Satur-

Tennis Federation yesterday. The
message sent by Julian S. Myrck,
president of the National Association,
read: "Heartest congratulations for

The association also sent cable
gram to the British Lawn Tennis Asso-

remarkable success of the champion
ships just completed at Wimbledon.
Although the new grounds were fin

many preliminary arrangements. The
advance sale of tickets which usually
takes place in January had to be de-
ferred this year until much later in
the season, because of the doubt as
to whether the new grounds would be
ready by the end of June.
On account Of this delay there was
some feeling abroad that the public
might not be interested in the cham
pionship to the same extent as in
former years, and consequently the
attendance might suffer. On the con-
trary, the demand for seats exceeded
all previous records, and thousands Of
wouldbe spectators were disappointed.
According to the cabled reports of the
tournament seats for the matches on
the closing days were quoted at from

established prices

At VelOdrome TO-nigh,

By far the most attractive card of
cycling events arranged since the open

staged tonight at the big Bronx
! stadium. Three professional events, any
one Of which would be feature ordi-

ton. For the amateurs the half lille
championship, the third Of a series Of
six races to decide the title holder, will
be put on.
The outstanding professional race
will be the International Derby, one
hour paced race for purse of S2,500.
Frank Cory will have some stiff COM
petition tonight when he meets Jules
Miguel, of France, winner of the re-
cent Brassard Of fifty miles; Georges
Seres, champion of France; Clarence
Carman, former American pace cham
pion, and Charles Verkyn, the best they
have in Belgium.
Preceding this grueling event, Man
ager Chapman will stage the frst
alternate race at the uptown track. II
will be Of four heats, at two-thirds of
each heat, three men competing on the
track at one time. The starters will
include Willie Spencer, who is now
leading in the race for the American
championship; Ray Eaton, who is sec.
ond; Francisco Verri, the champion OF
Italy, and Alfred Goullet, all around
champion of America.
