Nick Green, colored, was arrested charged with murder. Green was ac- cused of having killed John Ware, another negro, near Pembroke, last Saturday night. The body of Ware as found lying by the side of the railroad track near the Salubria crossing, about a mile north of Pem- broke. Ware left Pembroke only a short time before he was killed, in com- pany with several other negroes, it is said, and it was his companions who went back to Pembroke and re- ported having found this body after the north bound St. Louis express had passed. The negro's skull was crushed and there were some bruises on his body. Concerning the affair, the Pem- broke Journal says in part: "The jury, composed of three white men and three colored, ren- dered a verdict to the effect thet Ware was killed in a manner u known, "apparently by a train. The coroner prepared a verdict that he was killed by a train, but the white members of the jury re- fused to sign it. There is scarcely any reason to believe that the man was killed by the train. When the body was found it was lying directly beside the track, with the head to- ward Pembroke. If he had been struck by the fast train, the only train that had passed between the time he left town and the finding of the body, he would undoubtedly have been hurled some distance from the track and his body would have been badly mangled." The grand jury investigated the case Thursday and failed to indict, whereupon Green was released. Have you sacked your grapes? lags for sale at this office. HOPTOWN PLEASES 'EM.

Taft was virtually permitted to

the first ballot.

Chicago, June 19.—The hands

guiding the steam roller applied the

brakes for forty- five minutes Wed-nesday, while the delegates to the

National Republican Convention en-

gaged in a spectacular demonstra-

tion, cleverly led up to by Senator

Lodge, who concluded the first half

of his speech as permanent chairman,

a speech, which by the way, deserves

to take its place as one of the strong-

est of the Republican campaign doc-

uments, with the declaration that

"the President is the best abused

and the most popular man in the

United States to-day."

Then he considerately retired to

the rear platform while the South-

ern delegations, somewhat fearful of

the result of the vote on the Burkeresolution, which they knew would

come up later in the day, led all the

rest in their vocal and gymnastic ex-

hibition of devotion to Theodore

Roosevelt and his policies.

From a purely spectacular stand-

point, the demonstration was one

that will not be soon forgot by any

one who witnessed it. Above the

heads of the members of every dele-

gation, United States flags were

waved by seemingly frenzied enthu-

siasts. From the floor of the great

Coliseum, with its temporary popu-

lation of 12,000 men and women,

there came a steady roar of cheers

taken up and given back with right

good will by the balconies and the

stage in which handsomely gowned

women vied with the men in their

unchecked display of enthusiasm.

For forty-five minutes the cheer-

ing continued. At times almost dy-

ing away and again swelling to full

volume through the successfully con-

trived introduction of a Teddy Bear,

which made its way from press box

to platform, and from platform to

one state delegation after another,

held always high in air, and by the

unexpected and genuinely spontane-

ous contributions to the big showmade by individuals, whose imagi-

nation was quickened and zeal un-

loosed by the contagious spirit of

the game.The result produced was all that

the friends of Mr. Taft could ask.

The demonstration for Mr. Roose-

velt exceeded by fifteen minutes in

point of time, any which has ever

been given to any American in a

convention of either political party.

When that point was reached Mr.

Lodge put an end to the proceedings

without difficulty and the last un-

certainty that William Howard Taft

would be chosen on the first ballot

of the Chicago convention as the Re-

publican nominee for president wasremoved.

Next in order after the Roosevelt

tribute, was the meeting and defeat-

ing of the unexpected move inaug-

urated by the allies on Tuesday whenJames Francis burke, of Pennsylva-

nia, offered a resolution to the effect

that in future national inventions

of the Republican party, each State

shall be entitled to four delegates-at-

large and one additional delegate

for each 1,000 votes or majority

fraction thereof cast for the Repub-

lican candidates at the preceding

national election.

Mr. Taft owes his nomination to

the votes in this convention of ele

Southern States, which as Mr. Burkesaid in support of his resolution, nev-

er have and never will, under exist-

ing conditions, cast an electoral vote

for a Republican nominee.

The organization is the only one of

about partly by a novel combination

of instruments but in the main it is

that there were great possibilities in

a band. He saw that it could be

made to appeal to all classes, both to

railroad track near the Salubria

Ware left Pembroke only a short

Cynthiana. Ky., June 18.-A jury

ef twelve farmers was Becured yes-

terday to try the cases of "Dog-

wood" Kenton, Chas. Fowler, Bill

Brown and "Gum" McGhee, the

latter colored, charged with night

riding and participating in the at-

tack several months ago on Marshall

Haly, who was bringing his tobacco

to this city. Haly was the first wit-

ness for the Commonwealth and he

told of his wagon being stopped on

the way to this city, of one of them

being turned over and said he recog-

nized in the band of riders Kenton,

McGhee and Brown. He did not

know Fowler, he said, and could not

identify him. Haley said he was un-

able to secure any teams to haul his

tobacco to market in Bracken county

and came to this county to get them.

He told of his being whipped by the

riders but said that the whipping

was not severe as he promised to

take his tobacco back to Clayburg

from where he was hauling it and

the men let him go.

On cross-examination by the at-

torneys for the defense Haly said

also that he recognized a number of

other men in the raid and namedever half a dozen. Before Haly's

testimony was concluded, the court

adjourned for lunch.

At the afternoon session Marshall

Haly and J. Kinney Six testified to

recognizing different ones of the de-

fendants on the occasion of the whip-

ping of Denny Washburn at the old

Reinhanner house. Six, in response

to a question of the defense as to

whether he had recognized any per-

sons in the crowd of night riders

other than those mentioned by him,

refused to answer. He was fined

$30 twice by the court for not an-

swering and was threatened with s

jail sentence. The latter was avoid-

ed by the defense withdrawing the

question.

Democratic State Convention for the

purpose of selecting delegates to tne

Democratic national conventii

Denver, was called to order at the

State capitol at noon to day. There

are more than 1.300 delegates

most a certainty that Senators Rob-

ert L. Taylor and James B. Frazier

and G. T. Fitzhugh. of Memphr,and L. D. Tyson, of Knoxville, wil

VIS/7 LOUISVILLE.

Italian Shoots and Kills Three

Fellow-Countrymen

.

Louisville, Ky., June 19 —The ar-

my of the Equity Society will invade

Louisville on the Friday of State Fair

week in September. The society

will come to Louisville anywherefrom 25,000 to 60,000 strong, and be-

fore assembling at the fair grounds11 form a mammoth parade,march-

ing through the streets of Louisville.

The parade promises to be the great-

est and the most memorable in the

history of Louisville. Practically

every grower from the Burley to the

dark belt region will attend, their

members being limited only by the

capacity of the trains bearing them.

The decision to attend the State

air in a mammoth tobacco bodyas reached at Winchester after

speeches had been made to the to-

bacco men by I J. W. Newman, Sec-

retary of the State Fair; Sam P.

Jones, President of the Commercial

Bank and Trust Company, and sev-

eral prominent tobacco leaders.

After considering the question for

some time the tobacco people decid-

ed unanimously to send out notices

convening a mammoth gathering of

their friends in Louisville on Friday

of fair week.

It was also decided to organize anescort of honor for Miss Alice Lloyd

and ask her to participate in the pro-

cession through the streets in recog-

nition of her defence of the Equity

growers a few months ago.

U. S. MARSHAL

New Orleans, June 18.—Followinga series of crimes attributed to so-

called "Black Hand" societies in the

Italian quarter of New Orleans, oneof the worst tragedies yet connect-

ed with that section took place to-

day, when three Italians were shot

to death.

According to the police, these menwere killed as a result of an attemptto extort money from Pietro Giacono,

a wealthy Italian wine merchant of1113 Chartres street. Giacona andhis son told the police that these

men had frequently bought winefrom them by the barrel, and hadinvariably refused to pay for it.

According to their story the three

forced them to ship a barrel of wineto a point in Louisiana yesterday,

and returned early to-day and order-

ed them to prepare a meal. The old-

er Giacona suspected that trouble

would ensue and hid a repeating

file near the table. When one of the

visiting Italians drew a heavy caliber

revolver and ordered them to pro-

duce money and valuables the eider

Giacona answered with a shot fromthe rifle. The man he fired at fell

dead and the other two attemptedto escape.

One was killed before he had got-

ten ten feet from the table. Theother reached a staircase only to re-

ceive a bullet in his brain as he start-

ed down the steps, his body falling

into the courtyard below.

Only one of the Italians killed has

been identified as a man named Bar-

racca, known to the police.

Was Fired Upon By a Gang

of Negroes.

Bill Matheny, a Hopkins county

negro, was arrested near Norton-

ville by Deputy U.S. Marshal Amentand brought before Commissioner

Yonts, who held him over to the fed-

eral grand jury on a charge of sell

ing liquor without a government li-

cense. He was unable to furnish

bond and was taken to jail atOwboro.

Tne officer was fired upon by a

crowd of negroes while he was en

route to arrest Matheny. He had

made a contract with two menshow him the house where Mathenylived, when he was attacked by the

negrtes. They ordered|him to leave

the vicinity, but the marshal refus-

ed. The negroes then went to a

house and secured guns and fired on

Ament. Their aim was bad, howev-

er, and none of the bullets took ef-

fect.

from February 1st to June 15th,

there is another space of two

months, from Sept. 15th to Nov. 15,

when they may not be shot, neither

squirrels nor rabbits. This law was

made not only to give the squirrels

that much more protection, but to

remove the temptation from the

man or boy with a gun, to shoot

quail before the opening season for

them, which begins Nov. 15 and

closes Dec. 31. So during these

two months of the year, no kind of

game can be legally killed in Ken-

tucky except Doves. Duck, Wood-

cock, Snipe and Deer. Rabbits maybe snared or trapped or "treed"

with a dog at any time, and the

"luscious "possum" can be plucked

when ever he is ripe, but no shoot-

ing of rabbit, 1 squirrel, quail or

pheasant during this close season

from Sept. 15 to Nov. 15, both day

inclusive.

OF TOBACCO

Will Greatly Decrease Im-

portations By Foreign

Countries.

A NOTE OF WARNING.

France Will Look to Other

Countries—Supply From

Her Colonies.

Washington, June 17.—The Bu-

reau of Manufacturers made public

a report received from Consul Gen-

eral Skinner at Marseilles in reply to

an inquiry from correspondents as to

the probable effect in France of

increase of 20 to 30 per cent, in

price of American tobacco. He states

that unless clearly justified by gen-

eral crop conditions it would be to

accentuate the present tendency in

France to procure supplies in other

countries. In five years, Consul

Skinner says, the only substantial in-

crease in importations of Americantobacco occurred in 1905, and this

increase just measured the shortage

in importations from Algeria. Thedisposition seems to be to decrease

importations from the United States,

while increasing them from other

countries.

It must be remembered, continues

Consul Skinner, that American ex-

porters are dealing with an absolute

government monopoly, and that if

prices in the United States should

advance too rapidly thy monopoly is

free to buy in the cheapest available

market, and may be expected to do

so, to the extent that the substitute

tobaccos do not interfere with the

volume of consumption and conse-

quent revenue which the govern-

ment expects to derive from the en-

terprise. This is equally true of

other European governments which

control the tobacco business. TheFrench government is further com-

mitted to the policy of developing

the colonies in every possible man-ner, and, other things being equal

will give their tobacco the prefer-

ence. The Consul notes specially

that advanced farming methods are

being employed in remote tobacco

growing countries which is greatly

increasing production. This is par-

ticularly true in the fertile and pop-

ulous island of Java.

of Doan's Regulets, and give your

Pengreave's

Helping Hand.By W. F. BRYAN.

Copyrighted. 1908, by Homer Sprafue.

Pengreave, coming slowly down the

street, gave no heed to his surround

ings. For twenty years he had been

coming down the same street, some-

times a little earlier, sometimes very

mnch later, but always he pnsse.l

along with unseeing eyes, his thoughts

Bxed upon his business and his home

At fifteen he had first turned Into the

side street from the main thorough-

rare. Horse cars had run unevenly

over the badly set rails, and flickering

gas lamps had lighted all save the

business streets. Now there were trol-

leys everywhere, and even the alley-

ways were lighted by electricity, but

Richard Pengreave gave no heed to

these changes.

It had been a good locality once.

When Pengreave, in the glory of his

first long trousers and his first "real"

job, had sought a boarding place Mrs.Beldln's had been recommended as be-

ing In a "nice residential neighbor-

hood."

It had been a well swept street then,

lined with rows of three story brick

houses and here and there a "brown-stone front" to break the monotoay.Now the homes had given way to Aveand six story tenements. Mud heapsand garbage barrels littered the un-kempt pavement and the broken flag-

stones.

The Beldlo house, too, had changed.Mrs. Beldln's daughter had assumedcharge at her mother's death and hadchanged It to a furnished room bouse,

declaring that the cares of a large

kitchen weighed too heavily upon her.

Then she married and had moved up-

town, and some one else had taken overthe shabby houso, with Its shabby fur

nl hire.

The change had annoyed Pengreave.and he bad promptly purchased the

place, for he was errand boy no longer,

but the proprietor of a business. Hehad retained the first floor for his ownuse, and a real estate agent bad rentedthe other floors. He handed Pengreavequarterly checks, and Pengreave wor-

ried no more.He was sure of a home, the only

home he bad known. He sat at his

window In the summer evenings andlooked across the square opposite andgave no heed to the children swarmingIn the street.

There had been few children whenhe had first come to Barrow street, andthose were well dressed and orderly.

Now the policeman on the beat had his

hands full, and only Pengreave remain-ed serene and uuworrled.Once for nearly a year be had wor-

ried. It was when he was nineteenand be bad fancied himself In love.

But Lena had married a Junk dealeron the corner below, aud, after an un-quiet month, during which be drankseldles Instead of the smaller glasses atthe Blerhalle. Pengreave had recoveredbis placidity.

Since then It had pleased him to be-

lieve that his life bad been wrecked,and so he kept Lena's faded photo-graph on the mantelpiece, and at timeshe took It down and sighed over It;

also be avoided all feminine society.

At bis uncle's death the hitter's busi-

ness bad passed to him, and under bis

sven administration It had grown great-

ly. He lunched at better places, andhe also dined downtown. He bought a

new suit of clothes whenever bis old

cashier discreetly blnted that one wasneeded.

The woman who acted janltress

for the house attended also to bis

rooms, and be found them always or-

derly. He asked nothing more.

But tonight a surprise waited for Uim

at his very door. As he let himself lu

a voice rrom the darkness of the floor

above roused him. It waa a musical

voice with the indefinable accent of

good breeding, and It gave to the sim-

ple question the melody of a song.Ml am not the doctor," was his reply

he kept ou up the stairs Instead ofturning tn»n hU own anartmanta on

the first floor. "Is there need of a doc-

tor? Some one Is 111?"

"Mrs. Brady." explained the voice

"She scalded her hand, and I sent a lit

tie girl for n doctor."

Pengreave turned up the tiny flicker

of gas. The Increased! flame revealeJ

a dainty feminine form In a simpletailored gown. Pengreave was con-

scious only that the gtrl was well dress-

ed. It was the face that held htm fas-

cinated The features were well cut

aud regular; the eyes were calm and

unarrald aud of a deep tender blue

Ifaal moved Pengreave strangely

"Where do you live?" he demanded.

The girl smiled.

"I don't live here." she explained. "I

am a visitor from the Helping Handsociety."

Pengreave was puzzled.

"They need charity here?" he de-

mnnded. "I thought that was only

with the very poor."

"These are the very poor," she said

simply. "Don't you know?"Pengreave shook his head In bewil-

derment. Twenty years he had lived

there, and poverty had come to be his

neighbor, but he did not know It

"Had I known I should have given

aid," he said quietly. "If there is need,

come to me. The doctor-I will payhim. Send me his bill. I am sorry for

Mrs-Mrs"-"Brady." supplied the girl. "You are

very good."

Then the physician hustled In, andPengreave went downstairs to bis

rooms. In a little while there was a

tapping at the door, and he opened It

to discover the girl.

"Mrs. Brady asked me to thank youfor your kindness," she said. "It

pleased her so much that she almost

forgot the hurt of her burn."

Pengreave smiled. He could not re-

call ever having been thanked before.

He had never done anything to call for

thanks because be did not know bow."You must come again when you

need help." ha said warmly. "I amhere always In the evenings. You havebut to ask."

"I shall hold you to your promise."

she said. "Thsre Is much good that

you can do. We are so handicappedby lack of money, and there Is so

much that we want to da You mustsee for yourself the misery about you.

Good night."

She hurried down the hall, and Pen-

greave waited until the street door

closed behind her before he shut bis

own.He went back Into the room, his head

In a whirl. Dimly he was conscious

that the street was not the same as it

had been In bis boyhood. The girl

must be right He was willing to see

with her eyes, those eyes of the glori-

ous blue.

Those eyes gave him much to think

about He was not yet forty, andmore than half of his years had been

given to the unwavering pursuit of

business. True, there had been Lena,

but now Pengreave knew how little

Lena had really meant to him.

For the flrst time that he could re-

member he bad met a woman of his

own kind, and he felt the need of

knowing more of the life he had miss-

ed. He remembered that be was still

a comparatively young man, and those

blue eyes had loosened somethingwithin his breast—his repressed boy-

hood, his unrealized need of the soci-

ety of his fellows.

He was as one born again and, being

born, saw the world in a new light.

Methodically he removed the picture

of Lena from Its tawdry frame andtossed It upon the coals glowing In the

open Are. He was rather well pleased

with the reflection in the mirror abovethe mantel as be stood there.

"I must get some new clothes to-

morrow," he said to the reflection;

"also I must And a place where it la

well to live, a house such as she will

like. I, too, need a helping band."And the reflection In the mirror smiled

back at him. Now that Pengreave wasawakened be knew It was welL Therest would follow In due course.

Camel Races.

Camel races are held regularly In the

south of Algeria, where valuable prizes

are offered for the encouragement of

the breed of racers, and as much Inter-

est is taken In their preparation andperformance as In that of race horses

In this country. The racing camels are

the result of very careful breeding

through many generations, and in size,

temper and appearance they are so

different from the ordinary beast of

burden that they might almost be con-

sidered a different race of animals.

Perhaps the most conspicuous char-

scteristlc of the ordinary camel is its

extreme slowness. Nothing on earth

will ever Induce It to burry. A twentydollar note will buy a very fair speci-

men, but for a mehari, or racing camel,

Ave or ten times that sum Is required

to effect a purchase.The racer, however, can be depended

on for nine or ten miles an hourKept up for sixteen or seventeen hoursalmost without a stop. The pace In a

! samel race Is generally fast and furl-

3us at the beginning, when all the ant-

!coals are together and seem to realize

that a contest la In progress.

The Famous Basilisk.

According to the ancient writers, thebaslllsk-sometlmea called cockatrlce-vras a monster to be greatly dreaded.Its breath tilled the air with a deadlypoison and burned up vegetation, andtbe glance of Its eye waa fatal to bothaan and beast. The only creature that:ould face It and live, they said, wasthe cock, and travelers were advised to

take loud crowing cocks with them ast protection against the monster. Somuch for superstition. As a matter offact the basilisk Is a harmless Heard,living a quiet life In the woods andfeeding on Insects. Its appearance.However, Is formidable, and it Is thisperhaps that gave it a bad name. It

which Is much longer than Its body.Rising from Its head and Incliningoackwnrd Is a broad, wlngllke expan-tlon. which gives it some resemblunce:o the flylug lizard. The irest of this

expansion is formed somewhat like a•row i, and that gave the basilisk Its

The saving of thousands of dollars

a year to pensioners throughout the

United States and of many hundreds

to those in Kentucky will be effected

by a plan which will soon go into

effect in the pension offices through

ought the country. The pensioners

will be sent free postage envelopes

with the vouchers for their quarterly

stipends, and will not, as formerly,

have to pay return postage on them.

Forty-six petitions are pending at

the Post-office Department for the

establishment of rural free delivery

routes in Kentucky. Within the

past fiscal year only twenty-four

new routes have been established in

the State, but the small number is

due to the fact that Kentucky has

approximately 700 of these routes

now in operation. The First Con-

gressional district has the greatest

number of routes, 120, and the Sec-

ond is next with 109, and the Fourth

has 101. The E'.eventh.or mountain

district, has the smallest number,

seven, with seven petitions for newones pending before the department,

Returning to the city the party re-

paired to Hotel Latham where sup-per was served, after which a stroll

over the business section was taken.All of the five banks were lighted

up and reception committees wereon hand to show the visitors throughthese institutions, which are thepride of the city. No city of its size

can boast better ones.

REPUBLICAN TICKET

iContlnued from First P««e.:

the South,' of course, with the sin-

gle exception of Col. Andrew Cowan,

of Kentucky, opposed to it to a man.

Had it passed the allies would have

had the poor satisfaction of having

induced the party to register its re-

buke of the methods to which Mr.

Taft will owe his nomination and the

imewhat more practical satisfaction

of preventing the employment of

such means in the future.

Wilson Turns Trick.

That the allies were again defeated

is due not so much to the working

of the steam roller, although the

thirty eight votes cast by Ohio

against the resolution resulted in its

defeat, as to the fact that the holy

rollers found an uncounted-on but

powerful instrument in Gov. Will-

son, of Kentucky, whose speech

against the resolution, on the

ground that if adopted it would dei

liver the control of the Republican

party into the power of eight states,

and would make the party more sec-

tional even than it has charged the

Democratic party with being, was

easily the strongest and most effect-

argument delivered in opposition.

The Taft managers, in order fully

to conserve the interests of their

candidate, early in the day Thursday

placed on the floor of the convention,

but not in the capacity of either

delegates or alternates, a number of

the most prominent men in the par-

ty who are attached to the Taft

didacy. The duty of these men was

to watch the work of the opposition

candidates and promptly to head off

any possible defection of strength

and to hasten all accessions.

Cannon, Fairbanks, Knox, LaFollette and Taft were placed in

nomination. ,The first ballot result-

ed, Taft 702, Hughes 67. Cannon, 58,

Fairbanks 40, Knox 68. LaFollette

25, Foraker 16. Necessary to nomi

nate 491. Taft's nomination was

made unanimous.

The convention then adjourned

until 10 o'clock Friday morning, the

platform having been adopted as

Taft wanted it. Taft will probably

be permitted to choose his running

mate.

It is announced in Washington that

Secretary Taft's resignation as a

Cabinet officer will be received by

President Roosevelt, and that it will

take effect on July 1.

izen, died Wednesday night at his

home on North Virginia street, af-

ter an illness of several weeks, of

uraemic poisoning. He was 64 years

old and for many years was engagedin farming. For some years he wastoll-gate" keeper at The Square.on the

Clarksville pike and he moved fromthat place to this city. Mr. Ryanhad been paralyzed in his lowerlimbs for twenty years and his only

way of getting around from place

to place was by means of a rolling

chair which he propelled with his

hands. He is survived by his widowand three daughters, two of whomreside in Chicago and the other in

The interment took place in River-

side cemetery Thursday afternoon.

New Ruling.

Registered mail specifically ad-

dressed must in the future be secur-

ed by the person to whom it is ad-

dressed and no other. You cannot

send an employe or a member of

your family after such a letter or

parcel, nor can any such be received

at the bourse or the office. A fath-

er cannot touch the mail of his son

or daughter, if thus safeguarded,

nor has the postmaster authority to

turn them over. There has been a

laxity about this heretofore that has

caused general complaint.

MUCH INTEREST

In State Fair Children's

Department.

The announcement of a Children's

Department at the State Fair for the

u ators of the State and an excellent

showing is promised.

Mr. D. Moore Andrews, who hascharge of this work, is a manualtrrining expert and has charge of

this branch in the Nashville PublicSchools. He knows how to encour-

age young pe u e to leirn to do things

IS HE DEAD?

Nothing Heard From John

Heath for Three Months,

John Heath, who went tu ( iklaho-

ma last winter shortly after having

been visited by night riders at Daw-

son, has not been heard from by his

family and friends in this county for

the past three months, and it is fear-

ed that he is dead. A report has

been current that he was killed in a

cyclone that passed over some parts

of Oklahoma several weeks ago, but

this report has not been confirmed,

His mother, Mrs. Emaline Heath,

lives four miles west of Cadiz, and is

very much worried because she has

been unable to hear from him, and

her idea is that he is dead. Mr.

Heath was born and reared in Trigg

county, but for several years past

had made his home in Hopkinsville,

until a short tim* ago when he went

to Dawson.—Cadiz Record.

Sophy of

Kravoivia.

By ANTHONY HOPE.Author of "Th« Prisoner of Z«nd».'

In vain will the readers of this

tale of romantic love and bril-

liant daring search the maps ofthe world for the picturesque

land of Kravonia, wherein lovely,

fascinating Sophy and her mys-

terious Red Star played their

parts. This much we may tell

him before he embarks on h,'

voyage to Kravonia. But we mayassure him that when he reluc-

tantly parts with Sophy, some-

time scullery maid of Morping-

ham, Essex, England, later spirit-

ualistic medium ofParis, France,

and still later of high rank in

Slavna and Volseni, in Kravonia,

the country of her adoption will

he to him, like Zenda and Graus-

tark, more real than are many of

the smaller, actual kingdoms ofthe earth. Sad and tragic in someof its aspects is the love story ofSophy of Kravonja, bat its pa-thos is so lightened by devotedloyalty, hardy bravery and ten-

ter, self sacrificing affection

that at the end the reader will

been unworthy of the masterhand of its famous chronicler.

On came the company. The foremostfile reached within twenty yards of the

causeway. There they halted. Half

•of them dismounted, each man as he

did so Intrusting his horse to his next

fellow. Half of the fifty thus left

mounted repeated this operation, leav-

ing the remaining tw enty-five In cbargaof all the horses. The seventy-five took

position, four deep, on the road. Theyseparated, lining either side.

The figure of their commander uowappeared. He rode to the foot or the

causeway, then dismounted and gave

his horse to the sergeant who attended

him. His men followed and drew up

In the road, blocking the approach to

le. Bigthe MisAscend the causeway, a broad smile Mhia face. It was a great moment f.n

Captain Hercules—the day of F»T«Bg«

for Which he had waited In forced pa-

tience and discreet unobtruslveness. It

was a critical day also In view of the

Instructions he had. To do him jus-

tice, he was not afraid.

Sophy saw and knew. This musthave been the news that ZerUovitch

carried, that he had galloped on to

tell the prince at Volseni. Some event

—some unknown and untoward turn of

fortune—had loosed Mlstiteh on them!

That was all she had time to realize ba-

ton Mlstltch saluted her and spoke.

"I have the honor of addressing the

Baroness Dobrava?""You know me well, I think. Captain

Mlstlt. h, and I know you."

"Our Journey together will be all the

pleasanter for that."

"Your business with me, please?"

"i hare it in command from his maj-

esty to escort you to Slavna—to the

palace and Into his presence. The king

himself will then acquaint you with his

Wishes."

"You're a strange messenger to send."

"That's a point to put to my superior

officer, Colonel Stafnltz, who sent me.

Sophy pointed at his men. "You ride

itrongly supported!"

"Again the colonel's orders, baron-

I way. Is thewritten order." He produced the orderthe king had signed before his death.Sophy hud been thinking. Neither

her cournge nor her running forsookbe>, site wared the document away"I can take your word. captain? You'tvmaking no mistake today? I really aiaIiaroness Ix.brnva - not somebody elsewith whom you have a feud?" Shelaughed at him gayly and went on:"Well, I'm ready I'm dressed for n

ride, and I'll ride with you Immediate-ly. In two minutes we'll be off." Shesaw a groom In the road staring at the

troopers and called to him to bring her

a horse.

This prompt obedience by no meanssuited Mlstlteh's Iwok. It forced blmeither to show his hand or to ride off

with Sophy, leaving the prince to hi:

devices, and, In a little while, to his re

venge.

"I mustn't hurry you. You have souit

preparations"—"None," said Sophy. Her horse wat

led out Into the road.• You'll at least desire to acquaint his

royal highness"—"Not at all necessary. Baron von

Hollbrandt can do that later on."Mist Itch looked puzzled. Sophy smll

ed. Her Intuition had been right. Thfattack on her was a feint, her arrest a

blind. The prince was the real object

of the move. She stepped down towardMlstltch.

"I see my horse Is ready. We cai

start at once, captain,"- she said.

"I'm Instructed to express to th<

prince regret that It should be neces-

sary"-"The regret, will be conveyed to him.

Come, captain!"

But Mlstltch barred her way."His royal highness is In the castle?"

he asked. His voice grew angry now.He feared the groat stroke had failed.

He saw that Sophy played with him.

How would he and his escort look rid-

ing back to Slavna with nothing to

show for their Journey save the cap-

ture of one unresisting woman—a woman whom they dared not harm while

the prince remained free and might be-

>me all powerful?"If he had been you'd have known it

r now, I think," smiled Sophy. "No,

le prince Isn't at the castle."

"I'll see that for myself!" Mlstltch

led, taking a step forward.

With a low laugh Sophy drew aside,

passed him and ran down the cause-

She looked up to Mlstltch and called to

"Now for Slavna, captain! And hur-

or you'll lie left behind!"

Her wit was too quick for him. Maxin Hollbrandt burst out laughing. Te-

ter Vaaaip grinned.

"What are you waiting for, captain?"

asked Max. "Your prisoner's only too

anxious to go with you. you see!"

"I'll search the castle first!" he cried

out gayly:

"Nonsense, I'eter! There's nothing to

conceal. l,et the captain pass.'

Her words stopped Mlstltch. Hefeared a trap. Max saw It and mockedhim. "Don't be afraid, captain. Takefifty men in with you. The garrison

consists of a lady In bed, an old manand five female servants."

Sophy heard and laughed. Even the

troopers began to laugh now. Mlstltch

stood on the top of the causeway. Ir-

resolute, baffled, furious.

But behind his stupidity lay the eun

nlng astuteness of Stafnltz, the In-

genious bit of deviltry. MIstltch's nameavailed where his brain could not. For

the moment the prince made little of

the crown which had become his. Whenhe heard Zerkovltch's news his over-

powering thought was that the womanhe loved might be exposed to the pow-

er and the Insults of Mlstltch. Sophy-

was playing a skillful game for him.

but he did not know it.

"I hear something," said Teter Vas-

slp again, whispering to Max von Holl-

brandt.

Yes, there was the galloping of horses

on the Volseni road!

Colonel Stafnltz had not mlscalcu

lated.

Now Mlstltch heard the sound. His

heavy face brightened. He ran downthe causeway loudly ordering hla mento mount. He was no longer at a loss.

He had his cue now-the cue Stafnltz

had given hi in.

twenty rode out of the gate behindhim he turned his head to Zerkovli. li

who trotted beside him, for EtHtorltcbneither rjould nor would rest till tho

game was played, and said, "Tell the:n

that the king Is dead and that I reign."

Zerkovltch whispered the news to the

man next him. and It ran along the

line. A low, stem cheer, hardly monthan a murmured assurance of loyalty

and service, came from the lips of the

men In sheepskins.

Mlstltch saw them coming and turn-

ed to his troop. He had time for a lit

tie speech, and Stafnltz had taught htmwhat to say: "Men, you are servants of

the king and of the king only. No-even the Prince of Slavna can command you against the king's prders

Ihe king's orders are that we take

Baroness Dobrava to Slavna, no matfer who resists. If need be, these or

ders stand even against the prince."

Btafnitz's soldiers- the men he pet-

ted, the men who had felt the prince s

Btern hand—were only too glad to heat

it. To strike for the king and yet

against the hated prince-It was a lux

ury, a happy and unlooked for harmoHiring of their duty and their pleasureTheir nnswerlng cheer was loud andfierce.

It struck harsh on the ears of the advanclng prince. His face grew hardand strained as he heard the shoutsand sow the soiled body of men acrusx

the path, barring access to his owncastle. And within a yard or two or

their ranks by the side of the rood sat

the figure which he knew so well andao -jp-JJ loved.

Now Mlstltch played his card, that

move in the game which Sophy's cool

submission to his demand bad for the

moment thwarted, but to which tbe

prince's headlong anger and fear nowgave an opening, the opening whichStafnltz had from the first foreseen

g-ould need little to make tbe fiery

lorget prudence when he was" ice with Mlstltch. It was not

% game for Mlstltch personally-Stafnltz and he knew that—but

Captain Hercules was confident. Hewoyld not be caught twice by the VoKseni trick of sword! The satisfaction

of his revenge and the unstinted re-

wards that his colonel offered made it

worth his while to accept the risk andrendered it grateful to his heart.

Sophy sat smiling. She would fain

have averted the encounter and hadShaped her maneuvers to that end. It

was not to be so, it seemed. Now, shedid not doubt monseigneur's success,

bun she wished that Zerkovltch hadmj^ reached VolsenI so quickly; that

the prince had stayed behind his walls

till his plans were ready, and that shewas going a prisoner to Slavna to

tbe king, trusting to her face,

tongue, her courage and the star of herown fortune. Never had her buoyantself confidence run higher.

On the top of the causeway MaxHollbrandt looked to his revolver, re-

fer Vassip loosened his knife in its

leather sheath. A window above the

gate opened, and Marie Zerkovlteh'f

frightened face looked out. The womej£f«ervants jostled old Vassip In the

doorway. The grooms stood outside

the stables. No one moved. Only the

prince's little troop came on. Whenthey were fifty yards away Mlstltch

cried to his men, "Draw sworda!" andhimself pricked his horse with his spurand rode up to where Sophy was.Mlstltch drew his horse up parallel

to Sophy's, head to tail, on her right

Bide, between her and the approachingforce. With the Instinct of hatred sheshrank away from him. It had all beenforeseen and rehearsed In Stafnitz's

mind. Mlstltch cried loudly. "In the

king's name. Baroness Dobrava!" Heleaned from the saddle and caught herright wrist in his huge hand. He hail

the Justification that at his first attempt

to touch her Sophy's hand had flown to

her little revolver and held it now.Mlatltch crushed her wrist. The re-

volver fell to the ground. Sophy gaveone cry of pain. Mlstltch dropped herwrfct and reached his arm about her

watt. He was pulling her from her

hofle, while again he cried out: "In the

kiDffjB. name! On guard!"lM*us a high Jump from the top of

the Jauseway, but two men took it side

by side—Max von Hollbrandt, revolver

In hand, Peter Vassip, with knife un-

sheathed.

As they leaped, another shout rangout, "Long live King Serglus!"

The prince rode his fastest, but faster

still rode Zerkovltch. He outpaced the

prince and rode right in among Mls-titch's n%. crying loudly again andagain uj"»rtrigiy: "The king is dead!Tbe kinglS dead! The king is dead!"Then came the prince. He rode full

at Mlstltch. His men followed himand dashed, with a shock, against the

troopers of Mlstltch's escort. As they

rode they cried, "I/mg live King Ser-

glua!" They had unhorsed a doeen

men and wounded four or Ave before

they realized that they met with no r*>

•Jatance. Mlstltch's men were para-

lysed. The king was dead. They wereto light against the king! The magicof the name worked. They dropped the

tnajftbesitatlng to strike men who did

not 'defend themselves, puzzled and In

doubt, turned to their bailiff- their king

for his orders.

As the prince came up Mlstltch hurl-

ad Sophy from him. She fell from her

horse, but fell On the soft, grassy road

side and sprang up unhurt aave for a

cruel pnlii Ifl b«l .rushed wrist. She

turned her eyes whither all eyes were

turned now Tbe general battle wasstayed, but fnt the single combat. For

a moment none moved save the twowho were now to engage.

The flgbt of the Street of the Founlain fell to l>e fought again, for whenPeter Vassip was darting forward,

knife In hand, with a spring like n

mountain gouts, his master's voice

called, "Mine. Teter; mine!" It wasthe old cry when they shot wild boar In

the woods about Dobrava, and it

brought Peter Vassip to a Btand. Muxvon Hollbrandt, too, lowered his point-

ed revolver. Who should stand lie

tween his quarry and the king, be

tween Sophy's lover and the man whohad so outraged her? Big Mlstlteb

was the king's game and the kings

only that day.

Mlstltch's chance was gone, and he

must have known it. Where was the

sergeant who had undertaken to cover

him? He had turned tall. Where wasthe enveloping rush of his men, which

should have engulfed and paralyzed

the enemy? Paralysis was on his menthemselves. They believed Zerkovltch

and lacked appetite for the killing of u

king. Where was his triumphant re

turn to Slavna, his laurels, his rewards,

his wonderful swaggerlngs at the

Golden Lion? They were all gone. Even

Mlstltch IcU toifh a mighty crash, shotthrouflh the head,

though he killed the king, there weretwo dozen men vowed to have his life.

They must have it, but at what price?

His savage valor set tbe figure high.

It was the old fight again, but not

the old manner. There was no delicate

sword play, no fluctuating fortunes in

the fray. It was all stern and short.

Tbe king bad not drawn his sword;Mlstltch did not seek to draw his. Twoshots rang out sharply—that was all.

The king reeled In his saddle, but main-tained his seat. Big Mlstltch threw his

hands above his head, with a loud cry,

and fell, with a mighty crash, on the

road, shot through the head. PeterVassip ran to the king and helped himto dismount while Max von Hollbrandtheld his horse. Sophy hurried to wherethey laid him by the roadside.

"Disarm these fellows!" cried Zerko-vltch.

But Mlstltch's escort were in no moodto wait for this operation, nor to stayand suffer the anger of the king. Withtheir leader's fall the last of heart wasout of them. Wrenching themselvesfree from such of the Volsenians assought to arrest their flight, they turn-

ed their horses' heads and fled, one andall, for Slavna. The king's men at-

tempted no pursuit. They clusteredaround the spot where he lay.

"I'm bit," he said to Sophy, "but notbadly, I think."

From the castle door, down the cause-

way, came Marie Zerkovltch, weepingpassionately, wringing her hands. Thesoldiers parted their close ranks to let

her through. She came to tbe roadsidewhere Sophy supported monselgneur'shead upon her knees. Sophy lookedup and saw her. Marie did not speak.

She stood there, sobbingand wringing her handsover Sophy and thewounded king.

head, dry In the mouth, sick and ill.

He found himself no longer in theking's suit, but in one of the apart-ments which Stafnltz bad occupied.

He was all alone. The door stood open.

He understood that he was no more aprisoner. He knew that the king wasead.

But who else was dead, and whoalive, and who king in Slavna?He forced himself to rise and hur-

ried through the corridors of the pal-

ace. They were deserted. There waso hinder him, nobody of whomQuestion. He saw a decanter

of brandy standing near the door ofone room and drank freely of it. Thenhe made bla way Into the garden. Hesaw men streaming over the bridge to-

from tbe palace and the suburb* into

Slavna.

The streets were quiet. Soldiers oc-

cupied the corners of the ways. Theylooked curiously at Mtrkart'i pule face

came from the direction of St. Michael's

square, and thither Markart aimed his

art, the crowd of people on the other

side of the square echoed back the ac-

clamations of the soldiers.

All Countess Ellenburg's ambitions

were ut stake. For Stenovlcs and Staf-

nltz It was a matter of life itself now,so daringly had they raised their handsagainst King Serglus. Countess Ellen-

burg hud indeed prayed, and now pray-

ed all alone In a deserted palace, but

not one of the three had hesitated. Atthe head of a united army. In the nameof a united people, Stafnltz had de-

manded the proclamation of youngAlexis as king. For an hour Stenovlcs

bad made a show of demurring; then

he bowed to the national will. Thatnight young Alexis enjoyed more honorthan he had asked of Lepage the valet

—he was called not prince, but majesty.

He was king in Slavna. and the first

work to which they set his childish

hand was the proclamation of a Btate

of siege.

Slavna chose him willingly or be-

cause it must at the bidding of the

soldiers, but VolsenI was of anothermind. They would not have the Ger-

man woman's son to reign over them.Into that faithful city the woundedking threw himself, with all his friends.

The body of Mlstltch lay all day andall night by the wayside. Next morn-ing at dawn the king's grooms cameback from VolsenI and buried it undera clump of trees by the side of the lane

running down to Lake Taltl. Their

curses were the only words spoken overthe grave, and they flattened the earthlevel with the ground again that

might know where the man rested whohad lifted his hand against their master.

The king was carried to Volseni sore

stricken. They did not know whetherbe would live or die. He had a dan-gerous wound in the longs, and, to

make matters worse, the surgical skill

available at VolsenI was very primi-

tive.

But in that regard fortune broughtaid and brought also to Sophy a strangeconjecture of the new life with the old.

The landlord of the inn sent word to

Lukovitch that two foreign gentlemenhad arrived at his house that after-

noon and that the passport of one of

them described him as a surgeon. Thelandlord had told him how things stood,

and he was anxious to render help.

Basil Williamson. Dunstan-bury and he, accompanied by HenryBrown, Dunstanbury's servant, hadreached Volseni that day on their re-

turn from a tour in the Crimea andaround the shores of tbe sea of Azof.

A Former Gracey Marshal

Charged With Being in

Raid Dec. 7.

AFTER THE TRUST ALSO

Several Other Indictments

For Minor Offenses Not

Made Public.

The grand jury adjourned Thurs-

day afternoon after returning four-

teen additional indictments, one of

them for night riding. This was

against Gano M. Warder, former

marshal of Gracey, who was prompt-

ly arrested and his bond fixed at

$1,000. which he did not give and

spent the night in jail'. He is charg-

ed with complicity in the raid on

Hopkinsville. Evidence connecting

him with other raids is said to be at

hand, but the witnesses could not be

gotten before the grand jury.

The grand jury did not return in-

dictments against George Barnes,

Omer Barnes, Jim Jones, Cap

Jones, Y. G. Gibson and J. B. Hen-

derson, who were arrested on war-

rants sworn out before the County

Court several days ago charging

them with being night riders.

The chief witness against them is

not now in Kentucky and the grand

jury did not investigate their cases.

The men's bonds have expired and

they are not now under bond, but

any future grand jury may take up

the investigation.

The International Harve|tter Com-

pany was indicted on the dfearge of

being a combination of manufactur-

ing concerns for the purpose of reg-

ulating, fixing and controlling prices

on harvesting machines. The names

of several prominent citizens, both

farmers and dealers in machines, are

given in the indictment as witnesses.

This is the first indictment yet se-

cured in this county against this

company.

The town of Fairview was indict

ed on the charge of maintaining a

nuisance, it being alleged that for

two years past a mudhoie had been

allowed to remain in the street.

The other indictments were not

made public.

Only about thirty-five indictments

were returned in sixteen days.

tucky. The range near Louisville is

being put in condition, and when it

is ready the First Regiment will use

that range instead of coming to

Frankfort. It costs about $6,000 and

requires a good deal of time to get

a range in condition for use, and

therefore it will be several days be-

fore the range in Louisville is ready.

The range at Eariington will be

used by the Third Regiment, which

is in Western Kentucky. This has

been donated by J. B. Atkinson, and

will serve admirably, Gen. Johnston

thinks. The State encampments this

year will number three, and will be

held at the regimental rifle ranges,

as Gen. Johnston says he wants all

the men to know how to shoot and

at least see some other men shoot, if

they do not want to shoot them-

selves. Gen. Johnston says that a

soldier who cannot shoot is of no

earthly use, and therefore he is go-

ing to have the men learn how to

handle the guns which they carry

while on active service.

Frankfort, Kyrfjune 19—Withthe treasury probably lower in funds

than ever before, except in 1896, it

may be necessary to call an extra

session of the legislature to provide

money with which to run the depart-

ments of the State government.

Capt. Ed Farley, State Treasurer, in

a letter which he wrote to the jailer

of Mason county on Wednesday.says

that every effort is being made to

avoid the necessity for an extra

sion. In case an extra session is

called it would be called for the

same purpose as was the extra ses-

sion of 1896, when interest-bearing

warrants were authorized. This is

a way to meet the difficulties which

are presented, and it may be that

Gov. Willson will call the extra ses-

sion, probably in the winter.

ENGLISH MARKET

May Be Open To the Associ-

ation Tobacco.

R. C. West has just finished re-

handling two car loads of association

tobacco bought for English dealers

and unpacked and redried as an ex-

periment to suit the trade that de-

mands its own handling. Aside from

increased expense of trying to

make prized tobacco answer for the

loose trade, Mr. West thinks he has

succeeded in putting it up to i

his dealers. The report from Li 1

pool will be awaited with interest. If

the English house can use the re-

handled tobacco, there may be a newmarket for the tobacco that is not

good condition in the storage

houses if it is decided to re-grade it

and lower the price.
