You Who Have Left Home and Friends to Fight li4e's Battles ElseWhere-listen to the caii!
ABSENT SONS AND DAUGHTERS
 OF OLD KENTUCKY.

Wherever you have wandered, in to whatever lands or climes you may have gone to take up your abode. you are now by parental authority sum- moned back to the proud old state that gave birth to you or 10 your forefathers.
 "The old dinner horn. that in days of yore told of the approaching meal. has been taken down from the wall and there issues from it's sonorous and hospitable mouth trumpet call reaching the remotest corners of the earth and breathing into the ear of every honesick Kentuckian the musical and irresistible appeal that he drop all else and forthwith begin his pilgrimage back to his native heath.
 Back to the Old State.
 "A joyous welcome awaits you. As the gentle spring warns into life the beauties of nature, so will the kindly glances and friendly grasp of your old friends in Kentucky inspire in. you. if possible, greater and ten derer love for the state you once left. Now, therefore, as governor of the commonwealth of Kentucky, I, J. c. w. Beckham, do by these presents and by the authority of the parent, which Kentucky claims over all her children. even unto the third and fourth generation, command each and every former Kentuckian. whether sep arated from us by imaginary state lines or broad seas, to come back home. If he be at the blow, the forge the counting room, the business office or in whatever employment, let him for the time cease his work and re. turn home
 Men, women and children who pos sess the priceless heritage of having a drop of Kentucky blood in their veins must obey these commands and fail not to be with us during this gala poriol.

GENEVA, Sept S.-Two girls named
Vachero. aged II and 10 years, have
just accomplished daring feat of
smuggling.
They belong to family whose an
cestors have been, smugglers for CEN
tury. Their hunting grounds are in the
mountains where the Swiss, italian
and Austrian frontiers nearly touch at
the Steivio pass.
Many desperate fights with the GUS
toms officials have taken place at this
spot, until the Vacheros have been al
most wiped out. There now remain of
the family only the father and mother
and the two daughters, who are the
heroines of this latest exploit.
At present the father is suffering
from a rife shot through the elbow,
which he describes as an accident"
He was unable to get a large cargo OF
tobacco across the Swiss frontier into
Italy and his daughters determined to
smuggle the contraband themselves.
They started, but near the summit
of the pass were discovered by two
customs officials While the elder girl
proceeded on the journey the younger
one kept the officers at bay with rife
from a sheltered position. The men
replied and the fusillade continued
until the sister with the tobacco had
got a good half hours start. The
younger sister then disappeared and
returned home by making a long de-
tour in the mountains, every path OF
which she knows.

During the period of excitement near

Almost every town in Persia was af-

The grand vizier, who has just been
removed owing to the clamor of the

general opinion that he will resume Of
flee directly the demonstrators leave the
British legation. The grand Viziership
is the goal of ambition of ministers and
government officials. They dream of
the position as a means OF becoming
rich. For methods of extortion, the Off

all his predecessors in the shade. He
was a past master in the art of taking
bribes. and now is worth an immense
sum.
At present the minister of foreign af-

kind and obliging. But he has the char
acteristics of the Oriental, and his

LONDON, Sept. S.-Reports received
from the hop grounds in Kent, Sussex.
Surrey Hampshire, Worcestershire and
Herefordshlre show that the combined
effect of one of the most persistent at
tacks of aphis blight ever known and
of the protracted drought has been most
adverse to the prospects of the crop
everywhere, and in many cases disas-
trous. All the reports refer to the
blight, which is generally described as
the worst since 1882 when the vista
tion led to a great failure of the crop.
Many reports allude to the injury
that has been done by the absence OF
moisture and by the scorching sun,
scarcely any rain having fallen in
some of the hop districts for many
weeks There has recently been a
slight improvement in those planta-
tions where washing has been contin-

should be born alive. The Jogi told the
merchant that if his wife bathed in
human blood her child would live. This
seemed to be very ancient belief; and.
revolving as it must have been to a
Hindu woman, the anxiety of a hus-
band and wife for a son brought them
to assent to the crime for which they
were tried. A boy, Arjan by name,
about eight or nine years of age, was
kidnapped and after being kept a pris-
oner for thirty hours, was strangled.
His blood was collected in brass Ves-
sci, and after certain charms had been
repeated the expectant mother smeared
the blood over her body and so fulfilled
the rite. The boy was soon missed,
and the crime came to light through
the confession of the man who had
kidnapped the child, and had received
three rupees for doing so. To the west
ern mind the whole affair is marked by
cruel folly; but the common folk of the
Punjah will pass that by, for the mer-
chants wife gave birth to a living in

believe that the spells and the rites
have proved potent
Odd Coincidence
A strange coincidence is reported
from Bombay. Lutchman Pershad, the
famous elephant on which Lord and
Lady Curzon rode in the Delhi Durbar
elephant procession, died at Benares
the same day that Lady Curzon died in
London.
The yice-regal elephant was about 81
years old and had been ailing for some
time, his condition having been aggra-
waited by injuries he received in a fight
with another elephant.
1t Is interesting to note in this con-
nection that an outbreak of anthrax
has spread death among the govern
