Triumph For a Kentucky
Boy.

Annapolis. Md, June 9.-Commander
Carlo b. Britain, L. S. N, kentucky
boy. has created flutter in naval circles
by bringing the battleship Massachusetts
to this city through the dredged chan
mel
The Massachusetts,, when she came in
last Saturday, was drawing 26 feet :
inches. Her width is 20 feet and her
steering qualities are none too good.
Commander Britain brought her
through the channel at six knots speed
and never once changed it, but made
use of the naval tug Standish to assist
steering. She is now moored right of
the Naval Academy.
In bringing the Massachusetts, from
Greenberry Point and anchoring her
just off the Santee dock the battleships
officers have established the record Of
being the first to navigate the fve-year-
old channel with a battleship of first
class.
Heretofore commanders of big ships
coming to the academy had been con-
tent TO anchor three miles away and
make all trips to shore and transport all
mail and supplies in launches over this
distance. Although the channel was de-
signed for the very purpose of getting
big ships to the dock and was finished
five years ago, it has never before been
navigated by a first-class battleship.-
Courier Journal
Commander Britain is well and fav-
orably known here, having married Miss
Mamie Baldwin and his friends are
watching with interest his rise in the
navy. The Massachusetts is one of the
ships that will go to Europe this sum-
mer on practice cruise.

Old Case Settled.

The Court Of Appeals overruled, on
last Thursday, the petition for rehear-
ing in the case of Sallie E. Walkers
Exr VS. w. E. Luxon, finally settling a
case of long standing in the Circuit
Court here. In 1887 w. E. Luxon. Sr.,
gave to Sallie Walker a mortgage on a
certain piece of property here in Rich
mond. During the same year he sold
the property to S. ID. Parrish, who in
turn divided it into lots and sold them
to various parties, among whom were
Lyman Parrish and w. l.. Arnold. To
subject these lots to the satisfaction of
the mortgage was the real object of this
suit, but Judge Benton decided that on
account of no suit having been begun
before fifteen years had elapsed, the
property was not liable, and the Court
of Appeals sustained this decision.
The plaintiff was represented by Sulli-
van & Wallace and the defendants J. G.
Chenault

IT seem TO us that those who are max.
ing such vigorous fight on that great
enemy of the human race, tuberculosis,
are overlooking one of the most import
ant, if not the most important, features
in connection with the prevention and
cure of the disease. Thousands of dol
lars are being spent annually in expert
mentS trying TO find something that will
prevent and cure this awful disease.
Many learned men and women are de-
voting their lives to this cause, and yet,
it seems, none of them have as yet come
to the root of the trouble. In our opin-
ion, and we are strengthened in this belief
by opinions expressed by eminent physi-
clans, improper breathing is the cause
of more tuberculosis than all other
causes combined. The lungs were given
Nus by wise Creator to use, and it is
important that every cell should be ex-
ercised with every breath, yet the men
of our country are breathing about half
of what they should, and the women
about one third. This is very import
ant matter, and those who are fighting
to strengthen our race would do well TO
see to it that proper breathing be taught
the children throughout the length and
breadth of this land. Make it compul-
sorry that breathing exercises be made
a part of the training for our children,
and in this way so strengthen their lungs
while they are yet young, that, as they
grow older, they will know how to care
for them and thereby ward off
this terrible disease.

Erroneous Idea.

Since the filing Of the petition calling
for an election on the whiskey question
good many people have asked Judge
Shaclelford not to recognize the petit
ton and refuse to order the election
This is an erroneous idea. The law
plainly says in section 1854. Kentucky
Statutes, that: Upon application BY
written petition, signed by number Of
legal voters in each precinct OF the ter.
ritory to bsaffected, equal 10 twenty-five
per cent of the votes cast in each Of said
precincts atthe last general election. and
when for town or city election, the num-
Der of Votes cast at the last city or town
election, it shall be the duty Of the judge
OF the county court in such county, at the
next regular term thereof after receiv-
ing said petition, to make an order on
his order-book directing an election to
be held in the said county city, town,
district or precinct etc. . twill be seen

Thousands Going To
See Aeroplanes
Glenn H. Curtiss, the Worlds
Greatest Birdman, to Be At
I ines Aviation Meet

Nothing that has taken place in KY
in recent years has aroused near the in
terest that is being manifested in the
Times Aviation Meet that is to be held
in Louisville at Churchill Downs OIL
June Is and 10, and recent achieve
ments in aeronautics have served tC
create an intense desire on the part oil
every person, both old and young, to see
aeroplanes in action.
The recent remarkable fight of Glenn
H. Curtiss, who flew $50 miles from
Albany to New York, and the previous
performance of Louis Paulhan, the
trenchman, who flew from London to
Manchester, in England, are still fresh
in the public mind, and as Curtiss heads
team Of aviators to appear at The
Times Meet, thousands will journey
from all parts of the State to see this
wonderful birdman duplicate some of
his remarkable feats.
Besides Curtiss will be Charles X.
Hamilton, who has entered for the $50,
600 prize fight from New York to
Chicago; C. J. (''Bud'O Mars, who also
will try for this handsome purse; Hor-
are B. Wild who is to essay a fight from
Chicago to Louisville by aeroplane,
and Carl Bates, who is also a daring sky
pilot
Every railroad in Kentucky and
Southern Indiana has made reduced
rates for the two days of the meet, and
tickets will be good returning on the
Monday following. In addition many
railroads will run special excursion
trains to Louisville for this occasion,
on which the fares will be remarkably
low. Every indication, say railroad Of
ficials, is for the largest crowds on June
Is and 10 that have ever visited Louis

The aviators obtained by The Times
have already proved their mettle, and
the meet promises in every way to out
strip any other given in the United
States. The Times is spending thous-
ands of dollars to bring these birdmen
to Louisville and the enterprise doubt
less will prove attractive to thousands
of persons all over the State, few of
whom have ever seen an aeroplane in
action. thus its educational value
will make it well worth the time of
