FAMOUS FEUDIST ; IS FILLY SUIII F. Calahan of Breathitt County, Ky., Shot Despite Precautions.
(National News Association) LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 4. A report from Jackson, Kentucky, says that F. Calahan, former sheriff of Breathitt county and one of the leaders of the famous Hargis faction was assassinated in front of his store at Crockettsville, Ky. Two years ago Calahan was shot by an assassin but recovered. Callahan was riddled by bullets as he stood At the door of his store by sharpshooters who were hidden on the hillside at the same place from where they shot him two years ago. The killing of Calahan is another tragedy in the Hargis-Cockerlll feud which has for more than ten years stained Breathitt county with blood. He was one of the last leaders. . All others hare met violent deaths, most of them by assassins' guns. Calahan knew that he was a marked man and that sooner or later his enemies would get him. To avoid death he had made th most elaborate precautions. Around his store and his residence he had built five walls that he might not be under i range of the surrounding hills. Connecting the store and his home was a .covered passageway that he might go jfrom his store to his residence without exposing himself to bullets.

THE y,AMOV3 JTXTtZ TEAM 1 INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., April 30. A combination of racing cars and famous drivers which will be certain to figure in the second annual 500-mile International Sweepstakes race to be run at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway next Memorial Day is the Stutz team composed of Gil Anderson and Lien Zengel as regular drivers with Billy Knipper as relief driver. Two of the Stutz cars have been entered; these are identical in type with the Stutz car which competed in the last 500-mile race and went through without a stop for mechanical adjustment. This was considered remarkable inasmuch as it was the first car of the model and make that was manufactured and because of this perform ance the company was formed and the car was put upon the market. Gil Anderson, who will drive entry -num ber one Stutz car this year, was the A river in tno laot ropn Vfa con t i i a Stutz car through several races last i year and made a non-stop performance which was considered notable by motor racing experts. Len Zengel? who is Anderson's team mate, has been a racing driver for several seasons, his last notable victory being the winning of the Elgin National Stock Chassis road races at Elgin, Illinois, last year in a National car. Zengel Is the Dayton, Ohio agent for the Stutz. - : ; - Billy Knipper, the relief' driver, has been a driver of National reputation for several years and started his career as mechanician for Herb Lytle in 1896 when they drove a Pope-Hartford in the Gordon-Bennett race in France, being the only American car to finish in that event. Knipper drove a Chalmers "Blue-bird" and in 1910 won the Tiedeman Trophy at Savannah, Georgia, in a Lancia. These three drivers go to make up one of the foremost teams which will compete In the next long Speedway event and seem almost certain to land their share of the $50,000 cash prize offer. To Absorb Freckles and Other Blemishes . Every spring I receive many letters from girls seeking some reliable recipe for removing freckles. Last year I .advised ' many to try " mercolized wax. Such i favorable results were reported that this season I have recommended nothing else for the purpose. The wax seems to possess unusual properties which completely absorb every freckle, with no harmful effect. The complexion improves wonderfully, becoming as soft as a rose petal, and as delicately tinted. . Get an ounce of mercolized wax at any druggist, spread a thin layer of it over the entire, face every night for awhile, washing this off in the morning. For rough, red skin, sallownesp, blackheads, pimples, and all cutaneous blemishes, this treatment is superior to any that has ever come under my observation. Springtime also brings wrinkles, to many sensitive skins that are much exposed to winds and changing temperatures. Pour a half pint of witch hazel , into a basin, then an ounce of powdered saxolite, which quickly dissolves. Bathe the face In this; the effect on a wrinkled skin is remarkable. -Marie Demarest in Ladies' Favorite Magazine.

WRECK SENSATION EXPLODED TODAY Telegraph Operator Denies Receiving an Early Message of Disaster. (National News Association) NEW YORK, May 4. Frederick Bauber, a clerk in the Western Union main office of this city, who was alleged to have revealed the secret message received by the White Star line relative to the sinking of the Titanic many hours before the news was given to the public, went on the witness stand today before Senator William Alden Smith, chairman of the senatorial committee which is investigating the disaster, and swore he had never seen 6uch a message or that he knew of its existence. Bauber is the man who is said to have revealed the existence of this message to E. J. Dunn. When asked by Sen. Smith why he had made such a mystery of the affair, Bauber said he did it to protect his son, who is also a Western Union employe. J. M. Chamberlain, an expert mechanical engineer, who was a passen ger on the Titanic, told Sen. Smith j tnat the water-tight doors to the water- !.... . . . i tight compartments on the Titanic were out of order at the time of the disaster. Sen. Smith announced at the Waldorf-Astoria today that the work of the committee Is practically completed and that the committee will be ready to make a report to the senate just as soon as the clerical work incident to' the taking of testimony could be completed. The senator plainly Intimated Jhat his committee was satisfied as to the responsibility of the wreck, but he would not discuss that phase of the case.

ACTION IS TAKEN
IN ARCHIBALD CASE (National News Association) WASHINGTON, May 4. President Taft today transmitted to the house judiciary committee the papers from the department of Justice relating to charge against Judge Archibald of the Commerce Court, involving an al leged financial transaction with the Erie railroad. He expressed no opin ion as to the justice or injustice of the charges, but said that the con tents of the records of the department ! would not be made public. 1 "The attorney general has made a careful investigation of the charges," said the president, "and as a result of that investigation has appraised me that, in his opinion, the papers should be transmitted to the judiciary committee to be 'used by It as the basis of an investigation into the facts involved in the charges." The fact that the papers have now been sent to the judiciary committee is the only evidence direct or indirect as to how serious the department of Justice or the president regards the charges against the former member of the commerce court "The biggest little store in town" ; Commencement j PRESENTS Diamond Rings, t Watches, I Bar & Side Ruffle Pins, I Brooches, Bracelets, ; Lavalliers, Lockets, and Necklaces.
