STERLING, KENTUCKY, Burley Tobacco Meeting. At the meeting in Lexington last week several new features were of interest to growers were discussed. In the reports from all the counties in regard to the growing crop it is disclosed that under the most favorable conditions there will not be more than 50 per cent, of a crop grown this year. Statements of the financial condition of the Burley Society and Burley Co. show both in good shape. The District Board recommended a new feature in pooling a ten year pool by land owners, with the tenant to do as he wishes with his half of crop, pool it or not as he pleases, the land owner to take one-haof his part of crop in stock in a plant to manufacture tobacco. This will settle the tobacco trouble, as sooner or later the grower will have to go in the market with his tobacco in shape to reap some of the profit the manufactured goods bring if he expects to get what his raw leaf is worth. The new pool will close January 1, 1912, and is declared a pool when there are two signers. It is needless to say that there will be two signers and the manufacturing plant is a certainty. We are informed that several men of wealth are ready to back the new company for any amount of money needed. The plans of the new company are not yet matured, but it will be pushed and the new company will soon be ready for business. lf WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 16, 1911. flow Autos Are Made. Gov. Gray the Champion Money Winner of Season. Last Saturday afternoon Win. Halley Wilkerson, atied 74, died at his home on East Main street. f Jot congestion of the brain. Mr. hWilkerson was one of the oldest ID and most respected citizens of our city. He was born Dec. 13, 1836, in this county and lived hero all his life. When a young man he studied law but not liking the profession he never practiced. He was employed for two years as a clerk for Wells & Lloyd in the r as ap dry goods business. pointed and served as postmaster of Mt. Sterling from 1886 to 1889. He also served as sheriff of Montgomery county many years ago. At the time of his death he was engaged injtho grocery business. Mr. Wilkerson married Miss Emily F. Keas Oct. 19, 1865, at He is survived Eminence, Ky. by his wife and seven children, four daughters and three sons, Mrs. D. M. Reed, Misses Bettie B., Emma F., Ray K., J. Will, Joe Wells and N. A. Wilkerson, all of this city, and one brother, and three sisters, J. H. Wilkerson, of Valley Station, Mrs. Anna Hisle, of Lexington, Mrs. Alice Butler, of Favette county, and Lizzie Boone, of Bedford, Ind. TVlr. Wilkerson had been a member of the Methodist church for more than forty years. He was a man every one respected and liked, of a cheerful disposition, fal ways inclined to look on the bright side of life, with a kind word and gentle greeting for everyone. His was a most exemplary live. He died as he had lived, a gentleman and a iirm believer in his Master. To hissorrowing family we extend our deepest sympathy, but it should bea source of great comfort to thorn to know that should they live as he lived they will meet him in the great beyond. am- In spite of the fact that he did not win a race at either of the Fort Erie meetings, Governor Gray, winner of the Jacksonville and Latonia derbies, is the lead ing money winner of the season on the American turf. His earnings so far this year amount to $13,900. This is small for a leader, compared to what the champion races of other years won, but it but it must be remembered there arc no $10,000 and $20,000 stakes offered this year. Those ,days have passed. The best through-bred- s on the American turf, Fitz Herbert and Olambala, for instance are racing for $500 purses. It is a strange fact that Governor Gray, which by far is not the best racer ic this country, should lead Fitz Herbert, Olambala, Priscillian, Countless, Round the World and other cracks. Sam colt ZIous is Hildreth's the only other hot'se which has landed above the $10,000 mark. August Belmont's Priscillian is the only one of the cracks which has not been beaten this season. He has faced the starter six times and was the first home each time, winning a total of $3,535.

Ilackett, aged 79 years, died at his home in Winchester Sunday, August 13, of a complication of diseases incident to old age. Mr. Ilackett is survived by his wife and six children, Rev, A. L.

He had been a member of the Baptist Church for 52 years and was a most worthy gentleman. Mr. Hackett was an old Confederate soldier and was proud of the fact that he was a soldier of the army of Northern Virginia. He moved to Kentucky from Virginia in 1883. The sorrowing family has. the sympathy of their many friends. Buys Automobile. Democratic Convention. The County Democratic Convention held at the courthouse last Saturday at 2 o'clock to select delegates to attend the State Convention held in Louisville Tuesday, Aug. 15, attracted quite a large crowd and much interest was manifested. Col. A. W. Hamilton was unanimously elected Chairman of and Messrs. Squire Turder and G. B. Senff were chosen to act as joint Secretaries. Resolutions were offered naming all the Democrats of Montgomery county as delegates and instructing them to vote on all questions coining before the convention as a unit and for the best' interests of the Democratic party. Everything was harmonious and everybody seemed willing and anxious to get out and work for the splendid Democratic ticket that we will have in November.

Her soft, brown eyes swept the athletic form of the lover striding along beside her. "It is the chance that you have been waiting for, isn't it, dear? I judt know that it will be only a matter of months before one of those Xational or American league clubs will send around for you to come and manage them." The youth smiled. "Not so soon, girl," he protested. "I'll do well if I get into fast company in five years. I have my stepping stones to greater things in this BaneYille team. This is all I ask at present. of Fred Sterling, captain-managhis college team the year before, had created a sensation during his several years in amateur athletics. A pitcher of no mean ability, he had been offered chances, time and again, to sign with professional aggregations, but he had remained an amateur until the completion of his course. Now he aspired to greater things, and the management of the Baneville Iron and Oil league team had been offered him. Upon his ability to make good here rested his future in baseball. Tic had confidence in himself. He had no fear. Sterling was doubly thankful to be able to locate in Baneville; it was his home town ; it was also the honu-ohis sweetheart. They were to be married in the fall. "I am glad," continued the pert little maid, tripping so blithely nlonp beside the young ball player, "1 am glad, not only for your sake, but foi the sake of Dave. This will give him a chance to what do you call it? 'make good" "Dave ? 'Make good ?' " repeated Sterling dully. "What do you mean dear?" Ho ran his fingers through o shock of dark curly hair. "0, didn't you know? I thought I told you. Dave wants to become r ball player. As soon as T tell bin you are to manage the home team he will resign 1iis position at th' bank and prepare to help you out." "He had better wait until he find out whethei; he can make the teau or not." An ironic touch to th words brought a faint ilush to tlv cheeks of the girl by his side, am she turned lo her escort. Dave Ilertig was her only brothel Tic was younger than she and tin baby of the family, every member o which continually made sacrifices t make life more bearable to tin young bank clerk.

You will, .won't you?" "Urn m," came disgustedly from the manager. "I knew it " voiced the delighted Mt. Sterling Drug Co. girl. "I wouldn't love you at all if you didn't do this for me."

"I'll see how he works out' he said, and the subject, for the time being, was dropped. Baneville had been at the bottom of the league list when the previous season closed. Sterling had ambitions.
