self-inflicted and possibly mortal ballet
wound in tho chest. That he mado
an attempt upon his life Sunday afternoon
in the parlor of tho Smith mansion
is about all tho information obtainable
as to the circumstances surrounding
the affair because of extreme
reticence of all in any way connected
with young Thornton or the Smith
family. Soon after the shooting- a
special train was hurriedly sent to
Lexington to bring tho family of tho
wounded man to his bedside. Ills
father Is CoL H. II. Thornton, of Lexington.

country. Preston Thornton is about
21 years of age.
Late Sunday night a statement was
riven out by a friend of the Smith
family, the substance of which is as
follows:
Mr. Thornton has been for some time
engaged to be married to Miss Nettie
Boll Smith, daughter of Mr.
Milton II. Smith. Recently the
engagement was broken off. Sunday
Mr. Thornton called at the residence
of Mr. Smith and after a few
moments conversation in a fit of desperation
pulled a pistol from his pocket
and shot himself. The ball entered
thebody near the heart an 1 tha
wound is probably fatal. Drs. Roberts
and Cartlege are in attendance. Mr.
and Mrs. Thornton reached here Sunday
from their homo in Lexington to
bo with their son.
Mr. Thornton has bsen in tho service
of the Louisville & Nashville railroad
for tho past four or five years.
He is a young man of fine psrsonal
and bearing. A future of
great usefulness seemed to be assured
him. The attending physicians
announced that he would hardly survive
the night.

Thousands of
women go
down to death
every year
through their

a n 3 neglect.
Every woman
should know
something of
the physiology
of her woman
cssse. ly self. Every
woman should
appreciate the importance of the health I
and strength of the delicate onrars
that constitute her womanhood. The
woman who neglects her health in this
respectis sure to be a continual sufferer
and is in constant danger of an early

torture and motherhood a menace.

and only on the organs that make
wifehood and motherhood possible. It

It prepares a woman for an almost pang-less

THE COURTHOUSE
At Lexington, Ky.. Destroyed by Fire at
n Lost of SG3,0U(I llirt Statue and
Valutt Pain tings I.ujc
Lexixgtox, Ky., Slay 15. The courthouse
was completely burned and in
an hour nothing remained but walls.
Hart'sbeautiful masterpiece was destroyed
in an attempt to remove it.
Many of tho loose records were carried
out and others are in a steel vault
in tho basement. The courthouse was
built ten years ago and cost 5120,003.
The firo started in tho jury room
which was vacant. The county school
superintendent was conducting an examination
of 50 school children in the
courtroom and they were all rescued.
Firemen were helpless in the beginning
and soon deserted the courthouse
to save surrounding buildings. High
wind prevailed, and for a time tho
buildings to the northeast were in
great danger from flying embers.
Bucket and garden hose brigades put
out many incipient fires. The Central
and First national banks and the offices
of the Leader and the Herald were in
the line of the fire, and wcr quickly
emptied of books and records.
When the fire was under control it
