YESTERDAY'S RIOT
COST FIVE LIVES
Meanwhile, Negro Slayer
Is Confined in Steel
' Cage in Jail
Lexington, Ky., Feb. lO.-Dawn to
day found Lexington an armed camp.
Squads of soldiers who saw service at
Chateau Thierry were patrolling the
streets and guarding all the approaches
to the city to prevent a recurrence of
yesterday's bloody mob violence that
cost the lives of five persons and caused
injury to a score of others.
William Lcm ett, negro Slayer of 10-year-old
Geneva Hardeman, a school
girl, was confined in a steel cage in the
Lafayette county courthouse here,
1 either ia the state
reformatory at Frankfort or to the
prison at fcddyviue.
It was an attempt to lynch Lockett
yesterday that caused the rioting. Un
der miard of several hundred state
troops, the negro was brought from th
state penitentiary to this city, marehec
4t tia .niirf hmilia fftlinH rrililtV of mUY
der, and sentenced to die in thefrlectric
chair March 11. Shortly after sentence
had been passed, a mob of 100 or more
men charged tne entrance to uie rouii
lirvuoo hvnt. imon lvnchiiiB the neero.
Th troons fired rifles and machine
guns into the crowd. The mob wavered
and then dispersed, leaving the toll of
dead and wounded behind.
Additional troops were rushed to the
mtia mm f'nmn Znrharv Tavlor dur
ing the late afternoon and evening, and
martial law was declared by Brigadier
uenerai r. u. iuarsnau, upon mo m
rival. Reports last night that 1,500 moun
taineers were en route to Lexington to
lvnch Lockett caused the commanding
officer to throw cordons of troops across
every road leading into the city and to
nlanA nthor detachments at strategic
points within the city. So extensive
were the plans to prevent a further up
rising that at 10 o'clock last night the
brigadier general announced that the
situation was under control and that
no further trouble was expected.
Xo attempt will be made by the
authorities to remove Lockett from the
steel cage until danger of further vio
lence has passed, it was announced.
"I don't know why I did it," the
negro is quoted as having said in the
t nurse of a statement prepared for sub
mission to the jury which convicted
him. Lockett threw himself on the
mercy of the court. But one witness,
a neighbor of the dead girl's father,
was placed on the stand by the state.
The witness identified the stone with
w hich the girl's head had been crushed.
The jurymen returned their verdict

Lockett is about 33 years old, and
came Here irom rienaerson, rvv., seven
years ago. He enlisted in the array
and navy and served for 11 months at
Camp Taylor.
Business was being conducted as
usual here to-day, despite the presence
of the troops.
Death last night of J. M. Rogers, 61,
a farmer of Versailles, Woodford coun
ty, shot during the rioting, brought the
death toll to five.

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and
never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to
be nothing else but kidney trouble, or
the result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy
condition, they may cause the other
organs to become diseased.
You may mihVr pain in the back,
headache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, ir
ritable and maybe despondent; it
makes anyone so.
Hut hundreds of women claim that
Dr. Kilmer's Hwamp-Root, by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions.
Many send for a sample bottle to
nee what Swamp-Root, the great kid
ney, liver and bladder medicine, will do
for them. By enclosing ten rents to
Dr. Kilmer A, Co., Binphamton. X. Y.,
you may receive sample six bottle by

FACTIONAL FIGHT
IN AMERICAN LEAGUE
In Prospect as Two Big Leagues Meet
in Chicago to Adopt Schedules
for Year.
Chicago, Feb. 10. A continuation of
the American league factional fight
that might prove second in interest
only to the selection to-morrow of a
successor to August Herrmann as chair
man of the national baseball commis
sion, was in prospect here to-day when
the Americau aud National leagues
went into their annual sessions. The
meeting of the older organization was
expected to be short, as there was little
work to be accomplished aside from
adopting the schedule for the coming
season.
Three other leagues the American
association, Three I. and Western
also were in session to-day as a part
of Chicago's "biggest baseball meeting
of all time."
So far, only informal talk apparently
has been indulged in regarding a new
national commission chairman. No one
man seemed to stand out as the likely
winner. The election probably will be
held to-morrow after the joint major
league meeting.

ANOTHER WRESTLER COMES UP
Borella, Ex-Navy Champion, Challenges
Shimkus.
St. Albans, Feb. 10. The success at
tained by Joe Shimkus in his recent
wrestling bouts here and the fact that
he has appeared mostly in, this place
has put St. Albans near the top on the
state's wrestling map. Challenges have
been coming in pretty freely of late
many good men at the mat game being
anxious to take on the man who thus
far has flopped 'em all. Bob Diry, who
recently appeared here, will again
wrestle Shimkus on Feb. l.'l at the
Stranahan "gym." In his last appear
ance he succeeded in winning one out
of the three falls and hopes to do even
better on this attempt.
Charles Borella of Newport, ex-navy
champion in the welterweight class, is
rather keen to meet Shimkus here and
shown confidence in his own ability in
the following challenge received by the
St. Albans Messenger:
"I understand that you have a wrest
ler there by the name of Joe Shimkus,
who thinks he is a coming clmni;i n.
I am only a welterweight but have de

at the time of my discharge I held the
championship of the navy up to 170
pounds. I can beat fclnmkus in no
time. I will meet hira any place, any
time and prove to you that I am sure
1 can beat him. I will wrestle him on
winner-take-all baxis. The only thing
I fear is that he will be afraid to accept
my challenge, for he has heard of me
through other wrestlers.

RATIFICATION
LONG WAY OFF
Peace Treaty Back in the
Hands of Foreign Re
lations Committee
WHEN IT COMES
BACK TO SENATE
Republican Leaders Pre
pared to Propose Modifica
tions and to Discuss
Washington, T). C, ' Feb. 10. The
peace treaty was back in the hands of
the foreign relations committee to-day
and it probably will not be returned
to the Senate floor until next week.
The committee was expected to act
to-day on the instructions or the Sen
ate to report the treaty out with the
reservations drafted by the Republicans
at the last session of Congress. Sena
tor Lodge of Massachusetts, Republi
can leader, plans, however, to defer
further Senate consideration of the
treaty to make way for preparations
and tariff legislation.
When the treaty comes back to the
Senate with the reservations, Republi
can leaders, it is understood, are pre
pared to propose mollifications to the
reservations similar to those drawn up
at the recent bi-partisan conference.
This would open discussion for compro
mise, it is pointed out, aitnougn tne
possibility of ratification is considered
by both sides a long way off.

BILLIONS FEET
OF PULP W OOD
In the Northlands of Alaska, If They
Can Only Be Thrown Open for
Public to Use.
Seattle, Feb. 10. Alaska wants to
throw open her millions of acres of
national forests so that the billions of
feet of paper wood of the northland can
help relieve the pulp and newsprint
famine, Governor Thomas Biggs, jr., of
Alaska, declared here recently.
Governor Kiggs was here on his way
from Juneau, capital of Alaska, to
Washington, I). C, where he expected
to help press pending legislation in
tended to remove restrictions and allow
pulp manufacturers to go into the
Tongass and C'hugach reservations, the
northern territory's two great reserves.
Pulp and paper men are anxious to
go to Alaska and establish mills as
great as those operated in British Co
lumbia not far south of the Alaskan
boundary line, the governor asserted.
Under the present laws the pulp mak
ers cannot enter the reservations with
any certainty that they will be allowed
to stay.
Alaska's great forests stretch over
approximately :14.(HK) square miles, an
area nearly equal in sire to the state of
Indiana, according to estimates made
by government officials.
"Several hundred million feet of good
pulp wood, including western yellow
pine, hemlock, Sitka spruce, white llr
and lodge-pole pine, are on the forest
reserves alone.
The Tongass reserve, in southeastern
Alaska, is especially adapted to the
manufacture of pulp and Paper, fores
try officials have reported. There is
plenty M water power, ocean harbors
open "the year around, timber skirting
the water and weather similar to that
of the Puget sound.
The governor intends to ask .Wash
ington to restore the reserves to the
national domain or to open them to
the pulp industry.

Washington, Feb. 10. Democrats of
the House were on record to-day as op

that they refrain from declaring them
selves on the issue until the Democratic
national convention in June.
The action was taken at the party
caucus last night when the house Dem

measure providing for universal com
pulsory military service or training.
Earlier in the session the Democrats
flatly rejected the president's appeal
by voting 88 to 37 against a proposal
that action on the measure be deferred.
Explaining their action at the cau
cus, several Democrats declared that
they felt they knew the sentiment of
the" country on military training better
than either the president or thoir lead
ers. Representative Caldwell, New York,
who led the fight in favor of the pres
ident's proposal, declared that unless
there is a change in sentiment on the
Democratic side of the House, it Is ap

Says Excess of Hydrochloric Acid Is

A well-known authority states that
stomach trouble and indigestion are
nearly always due to acidity acid

lieve, from a lack of digestive juices.
He states that an excess of hydrochlor
ic acid in the stomach retards digestion
and starta food fermentation, then our
meals sour like garbage in a can, form
ing acrid fluids and gases which inflate
the stomach like a toy balloon. We
then get that heavy, lumpy feeling in
the chest, we eructate sour food, belch
gas, or have heartburn, flatulence, wa
tcrbraah, or nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any phar
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and
lake" a tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter before breakfast while it i effer
vescing, and furthermore, to continue
this for one week. While relief follows
the first dose, it is important to neu
tralize the acidity, remove the (
making mass, start the liver, stimulate
the kidneys and thus promote a free
flow of pure digestive juices.
Jad Salt is inexpensive and is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon

What toldojfor
'Tape's Diapepsin," by neutralising
the acidity of the stomach, instantly
relieves the food souring and fermen
tation which causes the misery-making
gases, heartburn, flatulence, fullness or
pain in stomach and intestines.
A few tablets of "Pape'a Diapepsin"
bring relief almost s soon as they
reach the stomach. They help regulate
disordered stomachs eo favorite foods
can lie eaten without distress Costs
so little at drug stores. Adv.
Every Little Helps
Reduced costs mean reduced selling
prices and packers are studying costs
very carefully these days in the effort
to reduce living costs.
Paper is being substituted for tin
with many dry food products, even
the large cracker tins are fast being
replaced by fibre containers, thus sav
ing the costly tin and the greatly in
creased expense of return package.
Spices, Cocoa and even White House
Coffee are now packed in the square
carton container instead of the all tin
package, thereby saving cents per
pound to the consumer.
