The Italian Baby.

No infant receives a warmer well
come to the world or is more happily
born than the Italian baby. No infant
is the object of more caresseS or is
more fondly admired. Indeed, no mat
ter how poor the mother and father
may be, no matter how large the fam
lily, they have very merry times when
another son or daughter comes to them.
The neighbors are invited in, a feast
is prepared, a gallon or two of cheap
wine is procured, and the merriment
sometimes lasts several days. The
Italian considers there are only three
great events in the life of man-name-
ly, his birth, marriage and death.
These three events never pass without
a gorgeous and elaborate celebration.
In this simple way they strive to carry
out the tender life lesson: when you
were born you wept while those around
you smiled. So live that when you die
you alone may smile and those around
you weep" And so they laugh and
drink wine and sing, for they believe
it will have an effect upon the life of
the quivering form soon to take it's
place among them.-London Standard.

.J.WinterS K Co. have move
Rather Peculiar Action.

Morehead & Company, stock brokers
of Cincinnati, filed suit Wednesday at
Lexington against the Lexington Bank
ing & Trust Company to secure $12,-
1865, which the plaintiffs allege had
been deposited to their credit in the
bank. The suit grows out of certain
stock speculations of Attorney C. J.
Bronston, of that city, through the
Board OF Trade, which is the Licking
ton correspondent for Morehead and
Company. The answer will be filed by
Morton, Webb and Wilson, attorneys
for the Lexington Banking and Trust
Company. The bank will ask to be
allowed to deposit the SIP, 156. 95 with
out the court to make the proper dis
position of it.
1t seems that Mr. Bronston ordered
the bank not to honor the check. No
body in connection with the Bronston
side will talk and it looks rather pecul-
lar. Can it be possible that somebody is
welshing.

Suit for Back Taxes.

Sheriff John McElroy, of Fayette
county, filed suit against the Adams
Express Company to recover back taxes
on their franchise and business in Lex
ingtOn for five years. The amount
stated in the suit for each year is $20,-
900; in other words if the company
loses the suit it will have to pay back
taxes on 100000 for one year. The
rate of taxation from 1901 to 1905, in
elusive, averages about eighty cents
on the hundred dollars, so that the com
pany owes $4,000 back taxes with an
additional twenty per cent. penalty,
making total of $4,000. The state
ments were filed and summons were is
sued on the company returnable June

SUBTERRANEAN RIVERS.
Yucatan's Only Streams Flow Be-

Yucatan's Only Streams Flow Be-
meath Coral Rock.
There are no streams in Yucatan
which flow above the ground, but the
whole peninsula is one vast table of
coral rock and beneath it are immense
sheets of fresh water, with regular
though i'll defined tides and currents.
Along the coasts these subterranean
waters are quite near the surface, buI
in the interior, where the calcareOus
layer is Of great thickness, the waters
are low down. At intervals they break
into caverns formed by earthquakes by
pressure of their own force or by the
infiltratiOn of surface water into the
natural grottOes of the coral rock and
wherever the water can be reached,
whether through artificial pits or by
the operations of nature, the place is
called cenOte. There are a great
many of them scattered all over Yucca
tan, and those near Merida are utilized
as public lighthouses, affOrding most
refreshing resorts.
Centuries ago the Indians marked the
courses of the subterranean rivers by
heaps Of stones and always built their
cities close by the water caves, as their
ruins show, and it is interesting to note
to this day all the civilized centers of
Yucatan have arisen around these nat
ural reservoirs. There are many forms
of cenOteS. When the water flows at
a slight depth and the calcareOuS layer
has been only partially eaten away
there follows an irregular sinking,
which forms a cave. opening from side

and the underground stream has reg

roded in circular space and the vault
thus formed, lacking support, falls in,
making an immense open wall. Often
the crust is so deep that the soft parts
only erumble down, leaving small
aperture toward the top. fashiOning a
real grOttO, with stalactites and stalag-
mites galore. Again, it happens that
the crust is exceedingly thick, when a
colossal subterranean passage, like a
tunnel, is formed. In short, all the
variations which an undiSturbed
stream may produce in friable soil
by the silent work of ages may be here
witnessed. The cenote of which

feet deep. broken down at one side,
