There were frosts in- some parts of the

Broke Jail.
Two of Jailer Jones' prisoners decided
Friday night that they had stayed with
him long enough and took French leave.
They were John Q. Ponder, charged
with stealing a sack of mail at White s
Station, and Sell Wuburn. accused of
house breaking at Valley View. It was
found that they had sawed out a bar of
their cell which gave them access to the
hatl.when it was an easy matter to
hove out the rotten bars of a window
and jump to the open. The jailer has
not been able to discover where the men
got the saws, but a visitor must have fur
nished them.
Telephonic messages were sent to the
neiffhborin? towns bv Jailer Jones as
soon as his loss was discovered, describ
ing the men and offering 125 reward for
the return of each. Deputy bhenff
Johnson got busy and captured.. Ponder
at Berea, but Wilburn is still non est.

Sunday 142 members of Hazelrigg's
Bible class of Mt. Sterling went to Win
Chester on a special train and were the
guests of Pendleton's Bible class of the
First Christian church. About ISU
members of the First Christian church
Bible school met the train and the hosts
and visitors then marched in a body to
the church. After services the visitors
were served with a lunchaon. The two
are the largest Bible classes in the
SUte.
That there is a right and a wrong way
to do the right thing too often has been
exemplified by would be reformers and
pioneers in every progressive movement;
and the administration of every new de
partment of government, which lnitates
the regulation of any kind of enterprise,
necessarily subjects itself to the criti
cisms of those who resent restrictive in
novations in their business affairs. Such
embarrassment as this could have been
anticipated in the inauguration of the
State Banking Department, dealing as it
must with the most sensitive commer
cial institution we have. The law
charged the Department with enforcing
regulation, devised, so the Court of
Appeals construed them; primarily for
protection of depositors; and yet these
regulations must be enforced in such a
manner as not to injure the very per
sons intended to be its benefioiaries, by
creating unnecessary disturbance of
credit and resources.
That the first and probationary year
of the Department has passed with the
regulations va force and confidence In the
banks strengthened instead of disturbed,
and the bankers themselves pleased
with their operations, is a tribute to the
act as well as the executive ability of
Commissioner T. J. Smith and his as
sistants. .
Now that the department is well past
the period of apprehension, and the
Court of Appeals has declared the law
creating it constitutional in every fea
ture, it is interesting to learn from the
convention extra" of the Bulletin of
the Kentucky Bankers' Association,
issued during the annual meeting at
Louisville Wednesday: "It was freely
predioted when this office was created
that there would be a general 'stirring
up' among State banks but so admirably
have the affairs of this offioe been con
ducted that not the slightest flurry has
occurred."
This was said by the Bulletin in re
ference to Commissioner T. J. Smith s
address, with the further comment.
"The last address on the program is
by Col. Thomas J. Smith, Banking Com
missioner of the State of Kentucky, and
the subject selected is Trying To Get
Results." The Bullotln begs leave to
suggest that the subject should be chan
ged to Getting Results,' for Colonel
Tom, assisted by his able and popular
deputy, Rankin Revill, has certainly
made good with the office of Commis
sioner of Banking." Stale Journal.

Farmers' Chautauqua
Large Crowds Lnjoying Inter
esting Addresses.

It is unfortunate for the Farmers
Chautauqua that there was such a dis
agreeable change in the weather, but as
cold as it has been it has not affected
the attendance as large crowds are en
joying the programs, rne coia wave
caused the big tent to be discarded tem
porarily for Flatwoods church in which
the initial services were held
Sunday's program included a thought
ful address by Hon. John B. McFerran,
of Louisville, on the consolidation of the
churches, and another by Rev. E. B.
Barnes, of Richmond, on rural churches.
Some one in town last night asked a
man who had attended the Chautauqua
at Waco if it was success, to which he
smiled and replied, "Success doesn't
spell it at all. It is a huge success and
you should go out and see foi yourself.
"Of course I knew they were to have
big program all right," the one who
had not been said.
That is not what I am talking about
at all What I mean is the spirit that
growing among the people about
Waco. You can have a program and a
big one anywhere; but the growth of a
neighborhood into the spirit of a pro
gram is another matter."
The Chautauqua is a huge success,
and it was a success from the opening
talk on Sunday morning when Dr. Dex
ter, of Washington, D. C. gave a splen
did address on the possibihtes of the ru
ral church. Later in the day Dr. Por
ter, of Lexington, and Dr. Barnes dis
cussed the same topic.
Monday the program was full to over
flowing with good things. Joe Wing,
the alfalfa king and capital story teller,
told the story of the redemption of his
old home place by growing alfalfa. Dr.
Dexter talked entertainingly concerning
the essential points ot a good dairy cow
and then took the farmers out and dem
onstrated the points with some cows and
heifers which had been driven in from
nearbv farms. Mr. Montgomery, of
Berea, led a delightful round table dis
eusaion. vr. uooue, oi me experiment
ing Station at Lexington, gave a splen
did talk on hogs and also a demonstra
tion innoculation against bogcbolera.
At night Joe Wing talked again and Nat
Frame, of Louisville, showed how the
co-operation which has been developed
la the cannery at Waco could be enlarg
ed to cover co-operative shipping and
selling of fruits and vegetables. lie
spoke of one county in West Virginia
which had grown rich by such means.
Dr. G. D. Smith's lecture, profusely il
lustrated with pictures of his own or
chard in Rockcastle county, was a de
light from start to finish. Great interest
has grown out of the beautiful illustrat
ed hymns and songs led by Dr. Crabbe.
This morning almost two hundred
school children came to the Chautauqua
to spend the day. Mr. McFerran, who
made this Chautauqua possible, gave a
heartfelt plea for the children of Ken
tucky. It was a Ulk which came from
big heart counclled by a business
brain. Everv one was touohed by it.
Later Joe Wing gave a lecture and Mr.
Kinney, of Lexington Station, addressed
the big crowd tender the tent.
During both days demonstrations of
cooking, of the use of the Baboock test
er aod of the use of the cream separator
were held on the grounds. Even toma
toes .were canned with a small borne
canning outfit. . . . -
Nothing could be more, delightful and
neighborly than these Farmers' Chau
tauquas and the town people should
come out and rub elbows with their
country cousins.
