A Campaign of Education

The Kentuckian has always felt it
incumbent upon itself to commend
to its readers anything that tends to
promote the interest of the commu-

matters effecting its material pros
Lerity, because whatever makes for
the general welfare of the people
rnHst Of necessity, in some measure,
effect the interest Of this paper
Therefore. if from only a selfish
motive, we are constrained to call
the attention of our readers to the
work the management of the First
National Bank Of Hopkinsville has
undertaken in its efforts to induce
the young men and women of the
city and surrounding country to
think about their future welfare.
They desire that all the boys and
girls in this community shall be in
occulated with the saving habit.
The virus is clean, healthy and |
wholesome and guaranteed to insure
their future against that deadly dis
ease, the trinity of misery, WANT, |
PERJURY and Woe.
To this end the First National |
Bank has adopted a new savings sys-
tern to educate and encourage our
bows and girls in the art Of small |
savings. Their plan is simple and !
practical and commands the serious

A careful reading Of County Judge
Bingham's somewhat over-heated
reply" to the Kentuckian's ref
erences to the recent lawlessness in
Trigg county, following the Judges
controversy with the Courier-Jour-
nal, discloses nothing worthy of no
tice. His unfavorable opinion of the
editor of the Kentuckian is a per
sonal matter that the public can have
no interest in. A residence of 80
years in the same community ought
to establish a character for a man
that newspaper criticism cannot de-
stroy. At any rate, the question Of
character is not as vital as the ques-
tons of fact that have been so well
established that even the Record
eXclaims: who ever heard of a
person being fool enough to state
that there was not any lawlessness

Rail Causes Trouble And Much
Delay In Traffic.

There was a freight wreck on the
Short Line yesterday afternoon, as a
result of which Edward Ward, of this
city, a trainman, was injured, al
though it is not known yet exactly
how serious may be the injuries he
received.
From an examination at the EmeT
gency Hospital, whittier he was taken.
it appears that the injured man only
received serious bruises and some
slight contusions. For time il was
thought that he might have received
a fractured rib, but 1T was found not
TO be so. \ close watch is being
kept by the attending physician for
any developments that would indicate
the presence of internal injuries.
The wreck, which took place near
Saunders Range, was attributed va
riously to a split rail and sink
in the embankment recently placed
at this point in taking out curve in
the line. The track was torn up for a
distance OF several hundred feet. Eight
cars we're derailed and Ward was
thrown from one of them and covered
with coal in such a manner that he
was located with difficulty and twenty
minutes elapsed before he was dug
out. Passengers on all trains after the
accident were transferred across the
scene of the accident. but traffic in the
regular order was resumed today.

the sort that is good and witty straight

was an excellent character, as was
also Fred Frear, the court physician.

IT DEPENDS UPON WHAT KIND
OF RELIGION.

To the Editor OF the Evening Capital
In the Capital of March Ia Rev.
w. II. Twamley asks the question
is there reality in the world at tho
present timer lis there any reality
in our religion2" | would say il is
according to what religion ha means.
As it was I'm paul's day, SO il Is
now. Then they had gods many and
lords many-all kinds of religion.
Paul says in Acts /, verso %: -
found an altar with this inscription
To the unknown God whom therefore
We ignorantly worship; Him declare
unto you. The Saviour told the
woman at the we'll: "Ye Worship
We know not what So IL is today.
| am afraid some do not know who
or what they worship. There is only
one true religion, tJas. 1870 and the
way to get that is by repentance and
faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. Paur
says in second Corinthians, 18th verse
IF any man be in Christ ho is
new creature; old things have passed
away behold all things are become
new Romans, Sth to 9th verse IL
says "lf any man have not the spirit
of Christ, he is mono of His. lf
man has the spirit of Christ he has
false religions. The trouble with
people today is they take mans word
and not Gods. "Seareh the Scrip
lures. for in them We have eternal
life. The church and the world are
yoked together in these days, and
God says in Ills word. (Second
Corinthians, l4th verse BE ye not
unequally yoked together with un-
believers, and again Love not tho
world or the things OF the world. IL
any man love the world the love OF
the Father is not in him." SO we can
very easy know If We have true re-.
ligion.
1t means good deal to be
Christian. Our Brother Twamley
speaks of the Y. NJ. G. A. When /
first became acquainted with them
they were live people, getting souls
saved and training young men 10
preach the Gospel. Yes, they used 10
go out on the streets by twos and
preach to the people. What are they
doing now? A real Christian has no
use for theatres, dramas, dances, card
playing or. church entertainments,
Only such as can be used for the glory
of God. / am not preacher, only a
plain, old-time Methodist.

Naval Academy by College creek, and
about a half mile distant from il, has
been opened for the reception of pa
tients, and detachment of them is
expected from Norfolk in a few days.

the cots which were received were not
of the type desired, and il was neces-
sary to change them. Surgeon II. NJ.
Rixey, of the Navy, made an in
spection of the hospital last week,
and il was found entirely satisfac-
tory. The hospital is for the use of
the officers and enlisted men of the
Navy in general. All serious cases
of illness among members of the ma
val force upon the Eastern Coast of
the United States will be brought to
the hospital when possible or desir-
able.

and general medical wards and sun
parlors connected with each of them.
There is also a large operating room
and smaller one, room for treat
ment by the use of the X-ray and a
room for the practice of hydrotherapen-
tics. There are also number of rooms
for private patients. Surgeon George
Pickrell, one of the most skillful sur
geons in the Navy, who has been in
Annapolis for sometime, engaged in
experimenting the equipping of the
hospital, is the first superintendent of
the institution. lie is native of
Richmond, Va, and was appointed to
the Navy in 1888. He will have as
his assistant Passed Assistant Surgeon
Howard +. Strein.
other medical officers Will be de-
tailed later. The enlisted men attach
EIDE to the hospital staff will be one
pharmacist, three hospital stewards
and fourteen nurses. The hospital is
on a high bluff, locally known as
Straw berry Hill, and is near the Ma
val Cemetery, which is obscured from
it by the many trees about its border.
The building is OF ligbt-colored brick,
consists of main building and two
large wings. and was erected By the
General Supply and Construction Com
pany, of New York city. The situa-
tion is a beautiful one, e,overlooking the
Severn river and Annapolis harbor.
The grounds contiguous to the hos
pital will be graded, and two double
dwellings for the use OF the profess
sional staff attached will be erected.
The hospital and connected buildings
are near the Marine Barracks and
quarters of marine officers. The whole
forms a substantial and handsome
group of buildings connected with,
but not strictly a part of, the Naval
academy.
