Here is a Fish Story.

A gentleman who holds very re-
sponsible position, popular not only
with those in his class, but the com
monality think a great deal of him
ready to shake his hand upon all occa-
sions, went fishing. He is a member
of an honorable profession, and he is
also a very extensive farmer. He
lives on large productive farm on
Cumberland river, but a short dis.
tance from Neeley's Ferry. He has a
number of helpers on his farm and
some of them are very successful fish
ermen. He can have fish for break
fast, dinner and supper without any
effort upon his part, and Mi how he
enjoys them. When he sticks his
feet under the table, there being
room for nothing else under it, you
ought to see him lift fine Red Horse
from the dish to his plate; you should
also hear his lips smack. He is very
generous man and he often sends his
friends 'mess," and for the fine red
horse we got we are truly
thankful. To'have such a friend tC
send in such a rarety is something Il
appreciate. We hope he will continue
to live upon the fat of the land, es
pecially choice fish, for they are sait
to be the best of brain food. Again
dear friend, we want to thank you
promising to advocate any mOvemen
you may staIt to advance the propa

The South corner of the public
square had a narrow escape from
fire last Wednesday morning. A sack
had accidentally been pitched over
the exhaust pipe of Mr.. II. N. Miller's
Delco engine. 1t caught fire but was
extinguished before any damage. II
it had been after dark, and no one
passing over the premises, the whole
block would have likely burned.
The Adair County news., 1922-05-16

II is the general opinion about the
square that the garbage cans will
have to be removed and stay removed
unless they are emptied every two
days. The stinch arising from them
is unhealthy, and we do not believe
that the Board Of Health will stand
for them as now managed. This is a
matter that should be looked after al
once.

Legislation desired by Attorney
General Daugherty to make more ef.

the prosecution of war grafters and
profiteers will be passed by the
House as soon as a majority Of mem
bers can be secured and held in
Washington, Chairman Volstead, Of
the House Judiciary Committee.
stated today.
Two bills drafted by the Depart
ment of Justice are before the House
one making effective throughout
the country any Federal court order
compelling the attendance Of wit
nesses summoned by the Government,
and the other permitting trial Of the
accused in the Federal court district
where he resides or Is located or IN
cases where there are two or more
accused in the same action in the
district court in which any one Oh
the accused resides or is located.
Absence of majority OF the
House prevented these bills from De:
ing put on passage last Friday saio
Volstead. It may be necessary shat
a special order Of the House will be
required to get the bills up, but this
order will not be refused by the
House Rules Committee Volstead
hopes to pass both bills during the
present week.
Opposition to the legislation cen
ters about the bill widening the Gov
ernment's powers to set trials in the
courts. AS drawn by the Depart
ment of Justice this bill makes perm
anent law. Several lawyer mem
bers of the House would have 1t
temporary law, limited in time 10
cover the special class Of cases TO-
which 1t Is now designed. Volstead
pointed out today that the Govern
ment has similar powers In trusl

which are permanent, ana ne De-

by Cosmopolitan News Service.

DUBLIN. Sept. 5-The rebel
bands Of Eamonn de Valera ami
Erskine Childers were reported to-
day to have Joined forces and to be
operating In the region of Kilworth.
In the northern part of County Cork.
II this report is true, It disposes of
the rumor that de Valera was lying
at the. point of death from double
pneumonia ...
The irregulars are suffering from
lack Of food and ammunition, and,
according to information reaching
Richard Mulcahy, commander.in-
chief of the Free Staters, their
morale has become very low.
Belief is growing that the anti
treaty forces will not attempt to
block the Dali Eireann when 1t
meets here Saturday. There is much
speculation as to whether de Valera
will attempt to come to Dublin 10 at
tend the session.
The Free Staters have withdrawn
their guards from the Ulster frontier
in the Donegal region, indicating
that a peace agreement between
Dublin and Belfast Is being worked
out.
Archbishop Curley. Of Baltimore,
in a sermon at Athlone, expressed
deepest sorrow over the situation
here.
II am returning to the United
States Mortified, and well.nigh stupe-
fled by the picture Ireland Is pre-
senting to the world" said the arch
bishop. "If the Irish bishops were
powerless, what could the arcn-
bishops do?"

here when Rena. an Airedale owned
by Henry Curtiss. Of Keown Sta

four puppies to death and adopted a
little pig in their place.
The puppies made a fine litter,
but for some reason Rena did not
like two of them. She began cuff
ing them about on the day of their
birth, and finally rolled over on them
until they were dead. Then she
sneaked out to the hog inclosure
and stole little black-and.white
piglet which she added to the two
