PARIS KENTUCKY. TUESDAY, JULY 80 1907
Fire In The News Office.

About 10 80 o'clock yesterday morn
ing the Bourbon News Office was saved
from being a pile of ashes by the
heroic efforts of the Paris Fire Depart
ment.
Smoke was found to be coming
through the floor of the Office right at
the front door, Immediately over the
gas meter, which was located in the
cellar.
An employee of the gas company had
been in the cellar only few minutes
before the fire was discovered, to read
the meter for this month. He stated
afterward, that when he first entered
the cellar he detected the door of escar-
ing gas which was evidently from a
connection over the meter. He, how
ever, placed his candle on top of the
meter while making his notes, and the
supposition is that the candle ignited
very small leak in A. ]. Winters &
Co. S meter near by, that could not
have been noticed by Mr.. Huffman.
The smoke was dense in a few min
utes and you could not see your hand
before you. When the cellar door was
first opened by our foreman, Mr.. Lyle,
the meter was in big blaze. 1t had
all the appearances of being disas-
trous fire for a time and in all proba-
bility an explosion. The heroic
efforts of Mr.. Stienburgen. of the gas
company, in getting the gas turned off
an explosion would have surely taken
place.
The loss to Mr.. Champ, proprietor of
the Bourbon News, is about 500 to
stock, type and a large number of fin
ished and unfinished jobs.
A job stone, filled with a number of
jobs ready to be worked off was dump
ed into the cellar, making a large num-
Der of our best fonts practically use
less.
We, however, managed to get out
on time this morning, and want to
than the kind assistance rendered and
offered US.
We at once telegraphed to the Amer
lean Type FOundres Co. to rush US a
number Of fonts of the latest series of
job type, which will arrive to-day by
Adams Express and we are ready to 90
your JOB work without any delay.

Daily AirShip Accents.

During the big Blue Grass Fair at
Lexington, the week of August 18th
to 18th, only now about ten days off,
will be seen each day the famous
Knabenshue Airships in aerial flights.
This is the best known and most highly
perfected of all forms Of aerial navi-
cation. Mr.. Knabenshue was the only
one of many who attempted who made
successful flights at the Worlds Fair at
st. Louis in 1904. Since that time he
has been constantly improving the
construction of his ship and his own
skill in managing it, and has brought
aerial navigation to point where it is
no longer a matter of speculation but
a certainty, unless there be most ad-
verse weather conditions. The big
Knabenshue ship will make several
flights daily during the Blue Grass
Fair. 1t is only one Of tine many at
fractions Of the week OF August 18th
to 18th az Lexington All of them are
set forth in the catalogue, a few copies
Of which are still on hand and may be
had upon application to Secretary
Jouett Shouse. Those who intend tc
make exhibits at the Fair should write
for catalogue without fail.

Boy Is Acquitted.

Charley Searcy, the 15-year-old boy
who stabbed and killed Gus Delmuth,
confectioner, at Richmond a few
weeks ago, was tried before Judge
Turpin and after all the testimony
from both sides was in he was acquit-
ted. The proof showed that the little
fellow had been badly abused and that
ne had perfect cause for the rash act
which he had to do. After the judge
rendered a decision Of acquittal, the
boy went to him crying and thanked
him for the decision and said that
while he felt free, yet ne could not
help but cry every time the thought
came to MIN of his being murderer.

BIRD MIGRATION.
No" Do the Floeks Accomplish Their
Annual Flights?

!
Annual FIights2
Bird migration remains a puzzle
to the naturalists. The feathered
travellers are known to leave their
southern habitats at the end of the
rainy season and to gather in vast
hocks at regular meeting places.
! Not all the migratory birds, by the
way, migrate. In many or most of
the species there are individuals
who rest and mate in tn Or winter
homes, letting the hocks of their
kind depart. But most of them
mysteriously draw together at one
place and time and rise high in the
air, where they can be seen moving
like a swift dark cloud, making for
the north.
Some of our North American
birds winter as far south as Central
and even South America. They are
observed to take certain routes in
their annual journey. The long,
narrow Pacific slope is one of these
aerial ways, another lies across the
Texas plain and northward to the
Missouri valley, and third passes
over the Antilles and Florida and
forks in central Alabama to the
west and east of the first walls of
the Appalachians. The westward
way leads to the eastern Mississippi |
and the great lake basins, the east
ward liiers skirt the coast midlands
and pass after leaving some of their
along the way into the
Hudson valley, their gateway to
New England and the north. These
routes all furnish rest and water
md avoid ocean stretches, great
heights and head winds.
But how do the birds concert
heir meeting? How do they direct
heir fight? Do they await the
outh wind to blow them north as /
asst again as they can fly? What
ellis them east and west and the To-
alton Of the faroff places to which
hey are bound? How long do they
AXE to cover the zone from the
ropics to the cold north? How
lany birds pass in those great
louds of migrants which farmers I
1 certain regions can see during
alf tire spring? Why do they trav- c
such enormous distances, passing
yer in certain instances regions /
lat seem quite as well suited for E
leir habitat as are the places b
here they finally decide to settle? a

seaeoast and Civilization.

1t is an odd theory, yet no doubt
the correct one, that the coast area
of Europe has probably had more
to do with the commercial and so.
cial supremacy Of that continent
than any other cause. Investigation
will show that Europe has a mile Of
coast for every l64 square miles of
its land area, while the Americas,
which rightly come next, have 359
square miles Of Lad to every mile
OF coast. Asia has $40 miles and
Africa $50 square miles to each
mile Of coast. The low order of
culture still prevailing on the dark
continent, though its history is as
old as that Of any other portion of
the world, is almost indisputable
evidence Of the correctness Of this
theory,

the other day as if in great haste to

livening the gait of number of
other pedestrians bent on that pur-

none too rOomy, their discomfort in
running may be imagined. When,
breathless, they reached the station,
they found the first runner sitting
comfortably and reading a paper,

upon the cause of her anger with
