CROWDS THRONG
PARK FOR GREAT
jOLLIFIcATION
Knights Of Columbus Picnic To Be
One Of Greatest Celebrations Ever
Held Here From Interest
Being Shown.

The yare coming to town over every
pike and on all trains for the big
Knights of Columbus picnic which Is
being held at Beechwood Park Thurs
day. There never was more thor
oughly advertised event in Mason
county. Word has been sent every
where and the program is so very at
tractive that none are letting this op-
portunity for big time escape them.
Although the park was opened
Thursday morning, the big time is in
store for Thursday afternoon and
night. There will be no way telling
just how many will crowd the park
Thursday night but it is certain that
old Beechwood will hold one of the
largest crowds in the history Of the
park.
The contests will be amusing and
the boxing bout promises to be worth
the whole price of admission.
Dancing in the pavilion will be one
of the best features of the entertain
ment and the concerts by the Horse
shoe band will be worth coming miles
to hear.

SENSATIONAL DAMAGE
SUIT IN BRACKEN
Bracken County Farmer Sues Son.In-
Law asking Damages for $4,000
Charging Most Serious Of Crimes.
The Augusta Chronicle says:

The Augusta Chronicle says:
Late Monday afternoon Attorney
Byron, representing A. A. Buddy
Moorhead filled suit in the Bracken
circuit court against his son-in-law,
Hugh Downward, for $4,000 damages
for the alleged seduction of his daugh-
ter, Miss Willie Moorhead, aged 16.
After the filing of the suit is devel-
oped that Mr.. and Mrs. Downward, ac-
companied by the latter's sister, Miss
Willie Moorhead, departed several
days ago for Detroit, Michigan, and
that they are now in that city.
All of the parties interested live in
the Berlin vicinity in this county Mr.
Downard is about thirty years old, a
son Of the late Thomas Downward, and
is the owner Of good farm of about
100 acres.
Mr.. Moorhead is about Al years old
and is well-known farmer, his farm
adjoining that Of his son-in-law, Mr..
Downward.
Attorney Byron. representing Mr..
Moorhead, says that 1t is quite likely
that charge of violating the Federal
Mann act will be placed against Mr..
Downward.
Owing to the prominence of all con-
cerned the filing Of the suit created
somewhat Of a sensation in the back
end of the county, where all are we'll
known.

WAREHOUSES; TO Be
ESTABLISHED ONLY
WHERE NEEDED MOST
Director Barker Says Farmers Must
Pay and That Their Money VIII Not
Be Recklessly Spent BY Estab.
fishing New Warehouses.

Lexington, KY, June 81. - That the
money required for the establishment
of new warehouses for the Burley To-
bacco Growers Cooperative Associa-
tion comes from the pockets of the
farmers themselves and that none will
be established where not absolutely
needed for the interests of the gen.
eral association we're declarations in
a statement made by Director OF
Warehouses Ralph NJ. Barker today,
in discussing the probability of add
ing to the associations holdings by
the acquisition of new receiving
plants.
Tobacco growers, in asking for the
establishment of new receiving
plants" said Director Barker, SHOULD
bear in mind that it is the money Of
the growers that pays for these houses
and that the cost will come out Of the
farmers tobacco. We desire to have a
receiving plant at every point where
II is necessary. but our members will
not uphold us in any policy of estab-
fishing plants on any other basis than
that.
The members of the association
want us to proceed with as little cost
as possible in the handling of their
crops, they want necessary receiving
plants and will approve them where
such plants are required for the gen.
eral good but, judging from what a
number already have said to me, they
will not approve any general plan for
the establishment of warehouses just
because there are none in the counties
which may want them, ,>even though
these counties may grow considerable
tobacco.
"The hurley association owns now
a large number Of plants, in some
places more than it needs, in others
It has none and in some Of these
places 1t ought to have at least one.
Where such plants may be necessary
for properly expediting the business
Of the association they will be estab-
lished, but not plant will be estab-
lished which the association can get
along without. Growers have already
indicated that this sentiment exists
practically unanimously among them.
and It is the intention Of this office to
respect that sentiment. for the farm
ers will have to pay, after all, every
dollar of the cost of such plants as are
established"

MANY HEAR EVANGELIST
At TENT WEDNESDAY
Large Crowds Heard Evangelist How.
ard Speak on the Conversion Of the
Blind Beggar ut Tent Revival

Evangelist Howard, breaches on
"The Conversion Of the poor blind
beggar." His text was taken from the
nineteenth chapter Of the gospel ac-
cording to st. Luke, And he cried,
Oh Lord have mercy on me-" Evangel-
list Howard said: This text shows
down right earnestness. 1t doesn't pay
to be half hearted about anything. 1t
will hinder you in the business circle,
and you won't make much progress in
religion as long as you go about 1t
half-heartedly. Some folks think that
all there Is to getting saved, is to hit
the sawdust trail and shake hands
with the preacher. But God has only
one way Of saving the people. And
when God saves you, you know 1t. If
you do not know whether or not you
are saved It Is the best evidence in
the world that you are not saved. You
must have knowledge Of your spirit
ual condition. You can't get blessed
ly saved until you want to be convert
ed more than you want anything else
In the world.
do you have personal knowledge
Of the power Of Jesus Christ to save?
Salvation is instantaneous. We don't
grow into conversion. but we grow
after We are converted. Jesus Christ
knows every heart cry tonight No
matter how low person may get in
sin. Jesus can save him. II he will but
earnestly repent and have faith in the
blood Of Jesus Christ to save"
Special quartet by the Coz family,
and vocal solo by Bro. Rayl was en-
joyed by the large crowd attending the
tent service Wednesday night. There
will be more special music Thursday
and Friday nights.

SALVATION ARMY
|MPOSTERS LEAVE
CITY IN Big RUSH
Man and Two Women Posing Us Mem.
bers of Salvation Army Prove to
BE Imposters-Trailed by
Campaign Manager.

A man and two women wearing the
uniform of the Salvation Army arrived
in Maysville Wednesday morning and
started to work canvassing the busi-
ness district for funds. They soon dis
covered that Mr.. Charles Mohr, Home
Service Campaign manager for the
Covington branch of the army was In
Maysville putting on campaign. Mr..
Mohr met the army members and they
informed him that they were from
Ashland and had been sent to Mays
vile by the Captain. AS the canvass
ers wore the regulation army uniforms
and the official badge, Mr.. Mohr
though they were really members and
he called the Ashland Office over the
telephone to learn why the canvassers
had ben sent here during the cam
paign. He was Informed by the Ash
land office that they had no workers
here.
Mr.. Mohr Immediately took steps to
have the imposters arrested but it was
learned that they had evidently be-
come suspicious and had employed a
taxi to take them to Augusta. When
the local police asked the Augusta Of
ficials to detain the imposters Thurs
day morning, it was learned that they
had taken the train for Newport.
Mr.. Mohr Immediately wired Briga-
der Roberts at Covington and hopes
to have the fakirs under arrest some
time today. There are so many impos-
ters working on the reputation Of the
Salvation Army throughout this Sec
tion that Mr. Mohr says he expects to
prosecute these imposters to the full
extent of the law.
