to be fatally injured, but DR.. Wray
examined him and sewed up the
wound In his arm and found that
he was not seriously hurt. He is
now able to sit up in bed. The nc.

Bowling Green News:
"a curiosity reached Bowling
Green today in the shape OF a
French postal card, mailed in Par
Is, and sent to Miss Halle Erminie
Rives,the Kentucky authoress now
II resident Of New York. What
makes the card curiosity is the
fact that its face does not bear
Miss Rives' name, but was deliv-
ereu by means OF her portrait
painted on it by French artist.
Below the picture is the word"New
York" So well known is this
Kentucky girl in the northern Ne.
tropolis that the postofiice authori-
Tiles recognized the picture and
sent the postal card to Miss Rlves.
The authoress sent the card in
letter to friend nov residing in
bowling Green, through whose
courtesy it was shown to a reports
er OF the News.
Back OF this unique postal card
is a little story. Mifs Rives' new
novel "Iiearts Courageous which
is now making a Juror in the
North, has plot which turns up.
on the coming Of the French feet
TO the aid OF the Americans during
the war for Independence. When
the Countess dc Rochpp beau, a
few weeks ago ii ~ rhis 5 ntry
in connection win d unsefing
OF the Rochambe beau noaument in
Washington, she read this novel
and sent for Miss Rives to visit her
al her apartments in the Waldorf
Astoria hotel in Nev York. A
friendship sprang up between
them and when the Countess sail
ed for home, she carried an auto
graphed copy of "Hearts Courage
Gus" to the President OF the French
Republic.
The story was written up widely
In the French newspa pers upon the
Counteso's return. The "Figaron
published Miss Rives' portrait, AS
the author of"Hearts Courageous"
but did not give her name. The
Flgaro's picture met the eye Of the
French painter, Leon Moncapeau,
who wished to secure the novel
from America, but knew not whom
to address as its author. Hence
the postal card, written by him in
French, whose only address is
Miss Rives's painted picture.
81 hope that my portrait OF you"
(the translation Of the card reads)
copied after that in the Figaro,will
serve as address in America, where
without doubt, your face will be
recognized Immediately by the
gentlemen of the Postal Bureau"
Miss Rives was so struck by the
ingenuity of her French correspon-
dent that she sent him copy OF
