CHAPTER Xxx.
Tempest's Flight.

Here's a pretty mess I'm in said
Tempest, when he had realized the full
extent of the disaster that had come
upon him. "The water rising rapidly

coming down harder than ever and

gone and left me. What am | to do, I'd
like to know"
He raised his voice to it's full vol
ume and shouted Medworth's name,
but had he possessed twice the lung
power he could not have made himself
heard on the boat that was being rap
idly borne away in the darkness.
He scrambled back to the highest
point of land along the river, the top
of the sloping side that led down to
the waters edge when the river was at
it's proper level, and here, just above
the food that was rising to meet him,
he stood a moment to collect his scat
tered senses. If he wished to live, it
was plain that he must think quickly
and to some purpose, and to act as
quickly. His first thought was to re-
turn to the secret passage. 1t sudden
ly occurred to him that he had no
weapon. But in great emergencies,
when Tempest was Obliged to think
quickly. he acquitted himself credit
ably. 1t was so in this instance, as it
had been in many others all over the
world
First" he muttered to himself, II
will make His Royal Nibs a visit and
see if [ can borrow gun. Then I'll
borrow a horse and get away to a
higher country, for, if I am not much
mistaken this part will be entirely
under water in twenty hours more"
Upon reaching this conclusion he
did not hesitate. but plunged through
| the increasing depth of water that was
| pouring in through the entrance to
| the caverns, and fioundered through
| the swash toward the lantern that still
hung high up where the water would
| not reach it for "a few hours at least,

! sliding panel.
Putting his ear to this, he heard
voices. At first they were low and in

the words But a heavy footstep
sounded, and then he heard the we'll
known voice of Gomez.
'By all the saints!" he exclaimed.

Calling for pharaoh"

Smiths Grove. KY, May 2l.-
One of the ten plaques sent up
on Pharaoh, the locusts, are
here by the millions. These pests
come at regular periods of every
sixteen years. The last locust
wear in this section was in 1890.
They made their appearance here
last week, and now the fields,
hills and woods resound with the
dismal roar of tens of thousands
of voices calling "Pharaoh."
1t is claimed that these insects
do not eat anything for forty
days, but they injure young
shrubs and trees by splitting the
bark unless they are protected.

A Right to Good Roads.

If this is government of, for and
by the people, lis time to cast about
and see whether it's functions are
being faithfully exercised. There
are 9O,OO0,0O0 people IN the United
States, and more than one-third of
these are engaged in agricultural
pursuits. Upon this latter class all
the others depend for the necessaries
of life, and according as conditions
are good or bad about the agri-
cultural classes, all the others are
affected. Prosperity IN the farming
world means prosperity IN the in
dustrial and the mercantile world.
When the farmers suffer, the dIsas-
ter reaches in some measure to every
man, woman and child In the coun-
try. There is no way to honestly put
out of sight the interdependence of
our people, and yet the one class
that could live absolutely without
the existence of any of the other
classes is the farming community.
In view of these self evident truths
it does seem that the industrial and
mercantile classes, with the profess
sional people. would be mindful of
everything tending to make rural
life profitable and pleasant. The
present highway conditions form the
most serious drawback that con-
fronts the country today. In no
other civilized country do like con-
ditions prevail. Wherever govern
ment has interviewed for good high
ways, there the people are happiest.
The highways afford to the rural
population not alone the means of
communication with the business
world, but the means of reaching
churches and school houses and all
that they have of social intercourse
and amusement. 1t should be a
matter of general public concern to
have the highways in all the states
put in first-class condition. The
states of themselves can never es-
tablish satisfactory systems of
roads, nor should they be expected
to. The cost of road construction
should be equitably distributed, and
this can be done only through ma
tional aid.

SAVED BABY
LYONS LIFT
Untold Suffering and Constant
Misery-AwfuI Sight From that
Dreadful Complaint, lnfantile E.
zema- Commenced at Top Of his
Head and Covered Entire Body.
MOTHER PRAISES
CUTICURA REMEDIES

"Our baby had that dreadful COM
plant, Infantile Eczema, which afflicted
him for several months, commencing at
the top of his head, and at last covering
his whole body. His sufferings were
untold and constant misery, in fact,
there was nothing we would not have
done to have given him relief. The
family doctor seemed to be wholly
incapable of coping with the case, and
after various experiments of his, which
resulted in no benefit to the child, we
sent to Macon, ILL.,, to druggist and got
a full set of the Cuticura Remedies and
applied as per directions, and he began
to improve Immediately, and in about
three or four days began to show a
brighter spirit and really laughed, for
the first time in a year. In about ninety
days he was fully recovered, with the
exception of rough skin, which is
gradually disappearing, and eventually
will be replaced by healthy one.
"Praise for the Cuticura Remedies
has always been our greatest pleasure,
and there is nothing too good that we
could say in their favor, for they GER
tainly saved our baby's life, for he was
the most awful sight that ever beheld,
prior to the treatment of the Cuticura
Remedies. Mrs. Maebelle Lyon, 1926

FIGHT OVER CROSSING.
[. & N. Engine Now Out Of Way and
Traction Company Will Put in
Crossing.

Mount Vernon, Ind, May 21.
The L. & N. railroad, by their
attorneys, appeared in Judge
Welborn's court this morning
and agreed to allow the Evans
vile and Mount Vernon traction
line to place their crossing at
Caborn in position, Wednesday
afternoon between 2 and B 30
O'Clock without any further
trouble.
The engines, which have been
blockading the disputed crossing
have been ordered back to Ev-
ansville and up until a late hour
last night the crossing was I'M
INSTRUCTED.
The trouble first started two
weeks ago when Judge Welborn
issued temporary restraining
order restraining the traction
company from putting in the
crossing. This order was later
dissolved and last Friday, be-
tween the hours of 2 and $3.50,
was set as the time for placing
the crossing in position.
The traction company we're on
hand with their laborers and al
ready had their crossing put to-
gether. At this juncture, in
spite of the order of the court,
the l.. & N. stepped in and took
the law into their own hands by
placing two engines at the cross
ing point and effectually block
aiding the work.
The traction company, wishing
to stay inside the law, asked for
an injunction restraining the l..
q N. people from a further
blockade.
This came up today and Judge
Welborn set next Wednesday,
between the hours of 2 and 3 80
O'Clock as the time for the cross
ing to be laid, to which the l..
d n agreed without further
protest, and as they have ordered
their blockading engines back to
Evansville it would appear that
they intend to fulfill their agree
ment to the letter.

All the automobile endurance con-
tests are thrown in the shade by the
remarkable performance of Emil
Boulhours, of Paris, who rode a
bicycle 8l6 miles aud 29l yards in
"a hours, at the remarkable average
rate of "a miles an hour. When one
considers the delays and the stops
entailed in such race it means that
for hours the rider must have been
pedaling his bicycle at the rate of
so miles an hour, and sometimes
even faster than that. The strain on
the sys tenn to withstand this must
be severe and certainly felt by the
rider.

Correct Status.

The Lancaster Record puts it
about correct when it says:
The newspaper men of Kentucky
were never bound so closely together
as now. and when their proposed
warfare on cheap John politicians
and burr tailed Legislators begins,
you may look for rafting of dry
bones, the like of which has never
been witnessed. Instead of serving
as the doormat of the community,a as
in former years, the newspaper, men
of today are the most independent
set of professional men in the state.
They think and act for themselves,
and are led by the nose by no man
or set OF men,"

LUM PRATHER
Suicides by Shooting Himself With Shot
Gun.

Lum Prather, a farmer who
lives near Hanson, killed himself
Friday by shooting himself in the
breast with a double barrelled
shotgun. He had been in
wretched health for long time,
but was thought to be improving.
Friday morning, while his
children were at the house of
Mr.. Smith, Prather sent his wife
to the house also with a request
that Smith come to see him, as
he wished to talk with him on
business. When Mrs. Prather
returned in short time with a
neighbor she found her husband
lying on the floor with his clothes
on fire. A hasty examination
revealed the fact that he had shot
himself in the breast and the
gun, at close range, tore gaping
wound in his body.
