IHREE PERSONS SHOT Night Riders Make an Attack on Another Kentucky Town. POLICE FORCE IS CAPTURED ‘Armod Raiders Then Dynamite and Burn - Two Independent Tobacco Warehouses and Several Other Es- tablishments and Escape. Russellville, Ky., Jan. —One hun- dred night riders swooped down on Russellville, Logan county, and after overpowering thres policemen and providing agalnst the giving of an alarm dynamited and burned the two independent tobacco concerns in the oity and several other establishments and rode away on the Hopkinsville and Clarksville pike. Three men were wounded and the telephone girls and police held prisoners for nearly three hours. The following bulldings were destroyed: 3 Frank G. Work tobacoo warehouse, bullding and contents, loss $15,000; American Snuff company factory and eontents, loss $15,000; Roberts & Brown planing mill, loss $12,000; Al- fred Underwood grocery, loss $2,000; King & Proctor’s stable and Joshua Knowles' cottage. The wounded are: Dr. Charles M. Roberts of Evansville, Ind.; J. R. McLean, Russellville, and J. H. Moséley, Russellville. Captain W. R. Bruce, the chief of police, as soon as he heard the report of the dynamite explosions, hastened to the fire tower, where he attempted to sound the alarm, but was overpow- ered by four of the masked night riders. McLean, who is proprietor of a grocery store, and Moseley, owner of a dry goods store, were shot by the night riders because they did mnot hurry into their homes as fast as the “night riders desired.” Dr. Roberts of Evansville, Ind., a guest at the Forest House, heard the confusion and, thinking that the raiders had de- parted, ran out to see what had hap- pened. He came face to face with a group of the departing mob and as he started to run was shot and seriously injured. 9 Mob 8eemed Well Organized. It was eaid that the mob came to Rusgellville from the direction of Cave Springs, near where the members are said to have their rendezvous. The mob seemed to be well organized. All the men were mounted and wore white caps, false beards and masks. Thelr chief purpose seemed to be the destruction of the two tobacco houses. It has been learned that as the night riders approached thé city they dis- mounted and left their horses just outside, then formed in a wide col- umn and narched down the main street. After taking possession of the telephone, police and fire stations they went to the Louisville and Nash- ville railroad depot, where they took possession of every locomotive in the yards and held them under guard to prevent the whistles being blown and an alarm raised. This is the third raid which has been made by night riders in Western Kentucky and followed closely the an- nouncement by the governor that dis- order must cease. A court at Hop- kinsville 18 Investigating a similar raid made on that city several weeks ago. Troops are now on guard in Hopkinsville. The night riders are attempting to | influence or intimidate certain tobacco growers into holding their crops for higher prices, or not to sell to the American Tobacco company. The sit- uation is particularly acute at this time, as many of the growers have twe years’ crop on hand. DURING POLITICAL QUARREL Mayor of Fort Gay, W. Va., 8hot by Prominent Democrat. Huntington, W.

Berlin, Jan. .—Maximillan Harden, editor of Die Zukunft, was sentenced to four months’ imprisonment on the charge of libeling Count Kuno von Moltke. Harden was sufficiently .recovered to appear in court. He wag attended by his own physician, Dr. Eisenberg. He spoke in his own defense. In the beginning his voice was fee- ble and he could scarcely be heard, but later he developed something. like his customary elocutionary vigor. His first impressions concerning Prince Philip zu Eulenburg and the persons attached to the prince’s interests at court had been gained, he said, from the late Prince von Bismarck and members of his household. These im- pressions had been supplemented by conversations with Mrs. von Elbe, the divorced wife -of Count von Moltke; Professor Schweninger, who was Bis- {* marck’s physician, and others. Har- den said he assumed full responsibil: ity for what he had written, but not for the interpretation given by other people to his articles. Harden said he hdd refrained from publishing the things against Von Moltke that he had heard from Prince von Bismarck, Mrs. von Elbe and Pro- fessor Schweninger until Von Moltke reached a position in the entourage of the emperor where his influence might be injurious to the Fatherland. Then only had he endeavored, by re- ferring in his articles to Von Moltke's relations with Prince Philip zu Eulen- burg, to remove this bad influence.

For thirty years we have had 8 war for women’s rights and now. the pendulum has swung too far. ' This is an age of overfeminization, espe- cially in the schools.. Men should be principals, with men under them, so that they will be contradicted once in a while. In the schools now where we find men principals they have only women under them and the men are becoming sissies.” He also deplored the ban on cor- poral punishment and opposed co- CARTER ® TAIT For Rent—T7-room house, good location, $15 per month.
