Arthur GOebel Dead.

On Saturday a dispatch was re-
ceived at Frankfort announcing
the death of Arthur Goebel at
Phoenix. Ariz. He has been
prominent in Kentucky for 10
years-since his brother, VIM.
Goebel, was assassinated. His
devotion to his slain brother was
very conspicuous. His strength,
time and money were freely given
to convict the murderers. His
spirit was broken when Governor
Wilson pardoned Howard, Pow
ers and Taylor. The dedication
of the Goebel monument has been
twice postponed to have Arthur
Goebel present. The last date set
for him was Feb. 3. Now that he
is dead the announcement has been
made by Hon. J. B. McCreary
that the ceremony will take place
as arranged for the Bird of Feb.

New Depot.

On Saturday he new depot was
opened for service. The lower
front rooms of old depot will be
occupied as Offices for the freight
departments. Everything in the
new is as bright as a pin. The
yard is being graded and will soon
admit vehicles.
We presume the city and rail
way company or either, will soon
attend to extension of pavements
on Maysville and Bank streets, SO
that the approach will be free
from mud.
The Objectionable features en-
countered on Maysville street in
reaching the depot will be largely
eliminated by the Bank street en-
trance unless people are fascinated
by the Old. We publicly thank
all who have made the depot poss-
sible.

Can This Be True.

1t is again announced that the
Board of Public Safety will en-
force the anticipating ordinance.
The only explanation Of the fail
ure of the ordinance to effect the
desired end has been negligence
upon the part of the Republican
and Democratic administrations
which preceded the Grinstead
regime. The anti-spitting ordi-
nance can be made fairly effective
by continued insistence upon the
part of the police upon the OBJ
servance of the law without re-
speeding persons, in order to edu-
cate the public.
Public health and public de-
cency demand that there shall be
an end of inactivity in this matter.

WOMEN or PAGAN IRELAND
The Property Rights OF Wives Were
+ Recognized Before the Advent
Of st. Patrick.

The pagan Irish were fierce and
proud, but at the same time remark
ably just and pure. Those who wish
to verify this statement have only to
look up the old Brehon laws, the leg
islative code that obtained in Erin
long before and long after the advent
of ST. Patrick.
These laws with very few excep-
tons were found good enough to gov.
ern the land after the reception of
Christianity. st. Patrick saw moth
ing to change in them, except the re-
ligious features bearing on the old
Druidic worship For the rest, he left
them as he found them, and they con-
tinued to be the legal guide OF the
Irish nation even down to the seven
teenth century.
Among their most noteworthy fea-
lures are their sense of justice and
fair play and their eminently high re-
gard for the domestic relationship
rights of women, the mutual protec-
ton of husband and wife, the recipro-
cal duties of parents and children,
etc. By way of proof or illustration.
we give passage from the Senchus
Nor:
"In the connection Of equal prop
erty If with equal land and
cattle and household stuff, and II
their marriage be equally free and
lawful, the wife in this case is called
the wife of equal rank. The contract
made by either party is not lawful
contract without the consent of the
other, except in cases Of contracts
tending equally to the welfare of both
Each of the two parties has
the power to give rejection and feast
according to their respective dignity
In case OF separation ample pro
vision was always made for the wife's
future. If, for instance, her portion
at the time of marriage was equal TO
that of her husband she was entitled
to half of the property which they
held at the time of separation. If the
whole property belonged originally to
the husband she received one-third at
the separation. If it was all her own
before marriage she took two-thirds.

Bsttonlsss Roswell Lake.

Bottomless lakes are tradition, as
the greatest depths of water, salt or
fresh, have some Hind of a ground for
nation under them. Roswell lake, in
New Mexico, is so small that a stone
can easily be hurled over it, yet It has
a depth of over 500 feet. The water
looks a deep green, but 1t 10 SO clear
that objects dropped into 1t can be

The Fate of. Explorers.

In a recently published autobiog-
raphy Of the late Henry NJ Stanley
the famous african explorer dwelis
with much bitterness on the unkind
and even cruel reception given him
by distinguished men of science on
his return from the Dark Continent
What was my reward?" he asks, and
continues: "Resolute devotion to a
certain ideal of duty, formed after
much self-exhortation to uprightness
Of conduct and righteous dealing with
my fellow-creatures, had terminated
in my being proclaimed TO all the
world first as forger and then as
a buccaneer, adventurer, a fraud and
an impostor 1t seemed to reverse
all order and sequence, to reverse all
| had been taught TO expect" Stan
ley was a sensitive man for all his
seeming hardness, and the attitude of
men like Sir Henry Rawlinson, Fran
els Cation and other prominent men
In the Royal Geographical society, an
attitude frankly cOntemptuOus, stung
him to the quick. Stanley in the story
of his life recurs again and again to
the hostility he encountered from
men of science. He lived to estab-
lish all his claims and to become
honored in the scientific world.-Mex-

How a Moose Eats Grass.

OF all peculiar sights | think that
that of moose eating grass is the
most extraordinary. The neck is so
short and the legs are so long that
the animal usually kneels in eating
grass. True. they do not attempt it
very often, for grass is by no means
staple with them, but even a moose
likes a change of diet. The appear
ance of these huge and awkward crea-
lures In this devotional attitude is not
only interesting but laughable.-St.

Bipartisan Control.

That the taking of the State
charitable institutions out of poll
tics has been of financial benefit
to the State, if in no other way, is
shown by a statement of the re-
ceipts from various sources with
in the institutions themselves. In
the products of the farm and
dairy, sewing-room, timer, car
penter shop, painter, plasterer
and blacksmith for the last year,
under the bipartisan board plan,
the State saved a total of about
$45, 1929. That is, the sources
mentioned took in that much more
money than was taken in under
the old administration. The fig
ures, as taken from the books,
show the following revenue from
farm and dairy and various work
shops at the asylum, the figures
for 1907 being of the greater part
of one year and there being nc
record kept prior TO that time:

Economics and the Family.


To regard the family as wholly or
as fundamentally an economic fact,
as though it we're a commercial ar
rangement or piece of property TO
be bought or bartered, is to enter
the high road to domestic instability
and disruption. Back of all the
economic considerations which have
consolidated the family lie the nor
NAL and permanent instincts of
human love. The family is an ethi-
cal fact not the less than an eco
nomic fact. 1t is the object of the
sweetest sacrifices and the happiest
self-forgetfulness. The family is the
primer in the moral education of the
race, and the issue which the present
crisis in the history of the family
represents is precisely the issue be-
tween the economic and the moral
aspect of the family. Shall domestic
life be regarded as a trade, or shall
II be regarded az an ideal?-Prof. F..

Social Question"
