MAN OF BRILLIANT MIND

Rev. Wallace Logan Nourse, the
venerable Presbyterian divine, died
suddenly yesterday morning at five
o'clock. He had been ill with an at
tack of grip for a week or more. but
it was not supposed his condition

with a sinking spell and the family

found him beyond human aid. He
expired soon after the doctor arriv-
ed DR.. Nourse was a native of
Hardin county, KY, and was born in
1885. He had heen a minister of
the Presbyterian church for nearly
so years. He came to Hopkinsville
about 25 years ago and was for 20
years pastor of the Ninth Street
Presbyterian church, a position he
resigned on account of advancing
years. During the last few years
he has held the pastorate of Lester
Memorial church in the county for
one Sunday in each month and has
also taken an interest in his farm
near the city.
DR.. Nourse was twice married
and is survived by his second wife
and a large family of children. One
of his sons, Rev. Chas. l.. Nourse, is
a prominent Presbyterian pastor of
a New Orleans church.
The passing of this eminent di-
vine, cultured gentlemen and pro.

distinguished ministers in the South
ern Presbyterian church. He was a
theologian of the first rank. Edu-
Gated at Central University in its
palmiest days, his scholarly record

In a French map of 1875 the Cut

really good map of the west is that

POWERS WINS:-In the eleventh
district primaries, held last Thursday,
Caleb Powers was an easy winner
over Don c. Edwards, the present con-
gresham from the district. The ma
Jorities are not officially made out yet
but the victory for Powers was so
overwhelming that there will never be
any question as to his election. The
returns so far made show that he car
lied all the nineteen counties with The
exception of three-Bell, Laurel arl
Pulaski. Edwards majority in Laurel,
his home county, was only thirty. His
total majorities in the district only
six hundred and eighty. while the ma
jorities for Powers reach the enor-
nous figure of nine thousand seven
ty eight, according to unofficial
counts. Mr.. Edwards has gracefully
accepted the result and announces his
determination to fight for the success
of the party in the state.
NIGHT RIDERS AGAIN ACTIVE
Rands of masked men were seriously
in evidence again in Bracken County
last week, and, as result, the barns
of Mr.. W. o. Bradford with all their
contents, were burned. On the same
night the barns of George B. Kenney
were burned also. The property loss
in the two instances is estimated to
be four thousand dollars. 1t is only
partly covered by insurance. The
cause of the outbreak was thought to
be due to the fact that during the
trouble last year, Mr.. Kenney allowed
state troops to be quartered on his
farm. 1t seems that he had been
threatened because of his evident SYM
pathy with the law-enforoing element.
GOOD ROADS CONGRESS- good
roads convention, which was held last
week at the State Fair Grounds n
Louisville, voted to call good roads
congress to meet in Louisville during
the Christmas holidays. Each county
is invited to send five representa-
tives. In no respect is Kentucky so
far behind the times as in the matter
of roads, and, at this convention this
winter, a program will be outlined
which will aim to secure legislation
that will greatly help the state and
the counties to build good roads. This
is only one OF. the purposes of the
congress, the chief aim beng to create
sentiment throughout the entire state
in favor of better roads.

Editor of The Citizen:
Tuesday evening, of the week Just
FAST, brought me to the national cap
.tal which will be the end OF pro-
fitable and pleasant vacation trip. 1t
Is useless TO try TO describe the
things OF interest here, because one
is soon swamped. The city is full Of
tourists. as ! suppose IL is all of the
year. There is at present a congress
OF the students and advocates of Es-
peranto. the universal language. Re-
representatives. come from all over the
world and five or six nations send
official representatives. Some of the
church services on Sunday are to be
conducted in Esperanto-but | think
| shall stick TO the English. These
people are surely enthusiastic, but
fear are deluded in their expectation
OF having an artificial language adopt
ed in place of one OF natural growth.
This afternoon was a lively one in
Washington because OF the regatta
on the Potomac in which were con-
tests between leading boat crews CT
American and Canadian cities. The
day was perfect and a large crowd as
sembled, for Saturday afternoon Is a
half holiday There was evidently
much skill displayed but it is certain
ly much tanner sport than a Kentucky
horse race. The splendid physique of
the rowers, however, was sight
worth seeing.
The point of main interest to me
here and the object of my visit is
the Library of Congress. This is a
veritable scholars paradise. The
building itself is SO beautiful, its in
terror finish of marble, gliding and
fresco is so rich and yet refined, its
setting on an ample and well kept
ground is so fitting that the senses
are fully satisfied. Everything inside
is so quiet, the superintendent and
assistants are so courteous and anX-
ious to aid the worker, that he feels
at his best. The magnitude and var
iety of the material available and the
excellence of its classification and
cataloguing render it possible to get
results rapidly. All of the day may
be spent here, for a cafe on the top
floor supplies the midday lunch.
Various sections of the Library are
being explored in turn in my search
for material. One day l have spent,
thus far. in the historical stacks Of
the reading Library. Here I found
most of the published material on
Kentucky history and one or two rare
books that had never been seen before
by me.
Another day was spent in the de-
partment of maps, and / must write
on this more fully. The superintend-
ent, Mr.. Phillips. is a specialist and
is the man who discovered and repro
duced the Filson map-the original Of
which I saw. He seems much dis
gusted that Kentuckians do not take
a larger interest in this work, for,
