tailed at conversation which lie said lie had with Captain Itipley while the latter was in charge of his military company during the occupancy oi' the stale capitol by the Taylor Iroops last sprint in which liipley told him ol' frequent conferences with Governor Taylor prior to the assassination. Tire witness said tliftt Itipley told liitn he was in tl:e executive otlice the day before the shoot in ml complained to Taylor because he had not called out his fltipley'si company and asked him when he should have the company ready. Taylor replied: "My Cod! Haven't yon brought them yet Coebel will not. live 24 hours," or "cannot live -4 hours, I have forirotien which lie said," declared the witness.

Judtic 11. Yost, associate counsel with l.radley in the contest case, according to the witness, was present :.ad heard the conversation. Iti response* to a question as to whether he (witness) heard of any conspiracy to kill Mr. Coebel, the witness stated that on Jan. 25. the day the trainload of mountaineers arrived, someone, he could not now recall who, told him that parties in the crowd were waiting in front of the statchouse to kill Coebel. "1 said," continued the witness, "it shall be stopped. 1 will go in the senate chamber and come out with Coebel and see that be is not hurt or insulted." "I looked up and saw "Wharton Golden alid told him to get FinJey, Culton and others and send tnem to me. "lie said: 'Coebel is not going to be hurt.' "Culton and Finley told me it was a fake and that, there was nothing in it they condemned violence, as I did." "Why did you send for Culton, Finley and the other nienV" "Because 1 thought they knew tho mountain men."

The witness was turned over to the defense. The defense asked witness If be knew anything of any connection of liipley with these occurrences. Governor Bradley said Ripley had none so far as he knew. Asked it! Ripley's company had not been disbanded at this time, witness said he thought it was disbanded about that time.

W. 1*. Thorne was next called. Asked if he had any conversation with Ripley upon the prior day to the day Coebel was shot, he answered that he had had a few words in the depot at Eminence, .lan. 29, in the morning about 0 o'clock. Witness said: "Ripley eaine in as if he was to take the train, and asked me if my son Will was still in Frankfort. He told me upon my replying in the affirmative, to send for him to return home. 'Take my advice and send for him,' said Ripley. Will did not come." "Did Ripley say when yon should send "He said send right away," said the witness.

Witness stated that upon the next day, when he tried to telephone to Frankfort, someone was calling Eminence. and that the person at the Frankfort end of the telephone said that he was General Collier and that he wanted Ripley. Witness did not know that Ripley went to Frankfort upon the day before or the day of the shooting, but does not think that he did.

A. V. Hite, agent of the Louisville & Nashville railroad, was introduced for the purpose of proving that a consignment of guns was shipped to Ripley at Eminence and waybills showing the -consignnpcH^ were produced but were oy objection.

The Rawlins was being loaded with a miscellaneous cargo, consisting for tiie most part of horse iced for army use. She was also to carry a quanlity of mixed supplies which bad been piled on the pier tor loading. Apparently lie blaze had been smouldering all night.

Dos Moines, la.. April 11.—According to testimony in tlie coroner's inquest. over the remains of Benjamin F. Grayson, who was paying teller of the Iowa Loan and 'Trust company, his accounts were short $10,000. It is believed he committed suicide by taking morphine. He was found in h's own barn by his wife and died a few hours afterward. Considerable mystery surrounds the case, and the relatives have maintained that he was murdered.

llemaios a Mystery.

Bremen, April 11.—The directors of the North Cerniau Lloyd Steamship company have apparently learned nothing definite as to when or where the theft of the gold bars from the Kaiser Wilhelm del- Crosse took place. Captain Engelbart is of the opinion that tlie gold was stolen at either New York or Southampton.

New York. April 11. Benjamin Forst, a broker and member of the Consolidated Exchange, committed suicide yesterday in the liolfiuan House. At the close of business Tuesday he had heavy debts outstanding, and this is thought to be the cause of his suicide.

Oi"c»n Steiimors Very Large. The tendency steadily to increase the size of ocean steamers is explained by the fact that the larger the vessel the smaller is the coal consumption—the greatest item of expense—per ton of cargo carried. For a 4,000-ton vessel this is more than twice as great as for

a 9,000-ton vessel.

Wc IIiivo tlio Most Doctors. A writer in the Medical Record is authority for the statement that there is in the United States one physician for every 600 people. This is twice as many proportionately as there are in Great Britain, four times as many as in France, five times as many as in Germany, and six times as many as in Italy.

Propose* Lash for Wlfebenters. Police Judge McAuley of Kansas City has prepared and will push an ordinance providing for punishment by the lash of wife beaters and others guilty of aggravated misdemeanors that now call for no more severe penalties than small fines or brief workhouse sentences.

Tall Prehistoric Men*

Near Worms, Germany, a few dayB ago, a numlber of prehistoric tombs were laid bare containing skeletons of what must have been an exceedingly tail race of people, all buried in a stooping potsure. The relics are assigned to a period of 4,000 years ago.

Not a word in argument or praise is needed in offering these goods to you. I&'s only to let you know they're here.

FLANNELS.

Right quality, right prices. That's the story in a few words and we should add three times the stock to choose from than can be found in any other store. The favne of Yount's Flannels has stood the test of time, and uo matter what wonderful bargain arguments others may bring forth, the fact remains that here at this store the true measure of value is guided by quality and quality alone, and your money back if you want it. There is about as much difference between Yountaville Flannels and ordinary flannels as there is between an automobile and a wheelbarrow. These Flannels have true character, real value, and a wear-well reputation. They won't shrink in washing Now, what more can you ask? It is easy writing to advertise these goods, for about all that is needed is to

factory

that we have them in stock. Concerning their merits we

SKIRTS.

Hers is a case where a manufacturer of genius and a merchant of grit combine their forces for your benefit, but try for whatever a manufacturer will, if he does not inspire to perfection of production ther6 is no succesk coming his way. We ally ourselves with manufacturers who know and believe this and that is why we sell Yountsvlle woolen Skirts. They are made of the finest wool and a guaranted factory price on every one, from the lowest to the highest priced ones. If you area good judge of values we will expect to hear you ask for a Yount's skirt. Be a crank on economy—that is, buy goods that will stand wear and tear. Our experience in selling Dry Goods has saturated us with this truth. Here are the right goods at the right prices, from a store that is right and makes all mistakes right or your money back. The honest merit of our goods is an effective appeal to the good judgment of the careful housewife.

BLANKETS.

Soft, flaky white wool Blankets with gay, handsome borders. It's easy to get Blankets at the same price, but not easy to get the same quality. The touch, the size and the warmth of a blanket are its essential merits. America makes the finest blankets in the world. England, it is said, makes the worst—they feel like half-baked dough that's got cold. Yount's Blankets are big, fluffy fellows and feel light on you, no matter how many pounds they weigh, and they're warm. Luxurious, different qualities, of course, but all better than any others. They are unshrinkable, all wool both in warp and filb'ng, firm in weave, yet soft and flexible, woven close, yet not so close as to harden in washing. We are proud of the Yonnta Blankets, proud of feeling their selected wool. We know they are good goods, bring-yon.back-again goods, and that's the kind of trade we're out for, struggling for, and getting.
