saying that the stuff was poison,

the alleged mushrooms to the home
of one of his tenants and there had
them cooked. To prove that he was
right and his wife was wrong, By
singer carried the cooked dish back
home and ate heartily of the fungus
growth. He induced his two sons to
eat with him. Mrs. Bysinger was

PROMINENT MEN DEAD

John Frederick Kellner, president
of the Central Consumers Company,
and we'll known in fraternal and Ger
man-American circles. died Wednes-
day morning of an affection of the
throat. Mr.. Kellner was horn in
Bavaria, and was a splendid type of
the self-made man.
Mr.. Kellner's ailment was of such
a nature that he was unable to swal-
low, and for months he took all
nourishment through tube which
had been inserted in his stomach.

any line approximating accuracy on
the situation. There will be much
breaking away from party lines. 1t
is believed that the Democrats. how.
ever, will benefit by the breakaway,
although they may not do so. There
are any number Of Republican to-
bacco growers, and some exceeding
ly prominent and influential men are
going to vote the straight Democrat
ic ticket on the ground that here in
Kentucky they have witnessed the
operations Of the so-called tobacco
trust and that "a Republican Gov
ernor has declined to institute any
proceedings against the trust" On
the other hand, it is said that there
are Democratic tobacco growers not
in sympathy with the Equity move
ment who applaud Gov. Wilson's
course and who will vote the Repub-
lican ticket this fall. However, the
Democrats say there are more tobac-
co growers in the organization than
there are on the outside, and the
fact that all the growers organiza.
tons in the State are absolutely in
control Of the situation and their re-
spective outputs indicates the
strength Of the organization men
over the anti-organization men.

FRANCE AND THE ALLIANCES; The
Struggle For the Balance of Power.
Rv Andre Tardieu. honorary lirst
secretary in the French diplomatic
service New York: The Macmillan
Company. Washington: Brentano's.
M. Tardieu delivered course of lectures
at Harvard University some time ago on
the subject of the diplomatic relations OF
the French people, and these lectures have
been utilized as material for the volume
which Is Just presented. 1t is a work of
prime Importance to the student of mod
ern international affairs, for it deals win
such living questions as the alliance be-
tween France and Russia; the new en-
tente between France and England; the
attitude of France toward the Mediter-
ranean understandings lately arranged:
the bearing upon French interests of the
triple alliance between Germany, Austria
and Italy; the effect of the various al
liances; the new Asiatic and European
und ,rstandings and finally the relations
between France and the United States.
NJ Tardieu holds that France. since the
war with Germany. has played leading
part in the diplomatic combinations neces-
sary to restrict the growing power of
Germany and thereby preserve the peace
of Europe This doctrine is the key to
all his chapters. which give clear con-
ceDtioii of The diplomatic relations of the
various European powers. which to the
casual reader of dispatches from abroad
might at times appear to be inconsistent
and contradictory. Although the volume
was prepared before the late outbreak OF
trouble in the Balkans. 1t indirectly

great test. but in winning he loses that
upon which his heart is set and glorifies
d previously dull and colorless existence
by his supreme remuneration. The book
is a reachment for enjoyment in life,
for freedom from the restrictions of doc
trine and sectarian prejudice: an argu
ment for a broader understanding be-
tween classes of people. But it is, not
necessarily to be viewed as tract. 1t is
brisk in its action and vital in it's emo
tional quality and altogether fascinating
tale.
