Few Humming Birds Left.

Our continent has a monopoly of
humming birds, the gems of the
feathered creation, OF these there
are said to be as many as four hum
dred species, most of which contine
themselves to tho tropical regions.
Only eighteen varities live farther
north than Mexico. 1t is generally
thought that humming birds live up
on honey. This, however. is mis-
take. They do obtain and devour
honey, it is true, but most of their
food consists of the small insects
which inhabit certain flowers.
Humming birds are so small that
when they are captured for COM
mercial purposes it is impossible to
use even the smallest shot for fear
of injuring their skins. They are
therefore stunned with a drop of
water from a blowgun or syringe
and fall into net, when they are
quickly poisoned.
Humming birds vary ia size from
those half as large as a sparrow to
those about the size of bee. Their
flight is so swift that they can be
we'll seen only when poised about q
flower. The little creatures bid fail
to be exterminated on account of the
senseless and cruel fashion of using
them as trimming for women's hats

The Kentuckian is truly glad that
GAINESVILLE has won the championship
of the Kitty League. since it was not
Hopkinsyile's turn to win it. because
she was deprived of the honor once
before by an umpire working for
Vincennes. Clarksvills is always
Hopkinsville's best drawing card
and ner people 90 deep into their
pockets to have league ball and they
deserve the victory they have won.
Hopkinsville people have no regret
in the matter and we congratulate
our neighbors on a deserv e d
triumph.

You have in the past made COM
rhendable efforts to plant and culti-
vate in the hearts Of your young
charges the principles Of unselfsh
philanthropy BY the contribution OF
their savings to The relief Of friend
less and dependent children
A day has been set apart each year
in the schools and the contributions
thus obtained have heretofore been
sent to the Kentucky Children's
Home Society at Louisville.
| beg to remind you that we have
now the West Kentucky Orphans
Home, located at Hopkinsville, and
under the management Of men and
women whom we know and in whom
we have the utmost confidence.
The West Kentucky Home is
charity in the full and true sense of
the term, and is yet wholly depend
emit upon contributions made to it.
1t has during the year accomplish
ed work almost equal to. and at an
expense Of less than ten per cent. of
the amount paid any other similar
institution in the state.
1t does not cucumber and hinder
its work by red tape"
In its methods radical departure
has been made from the custom of
others, in that delicate and even
sickly children are not subjected to
a medical examination by which they
are excluded, but are received into
the Home, given medical treatment,
wholesome food and tenderly and
patiently nursed back to health and
vigor. Some splendid results have
been thus obtained.
The West Kentucky Home is UNI
deniably doing a full share, if not all
the work that is being done in this
end of the State, and we feel that
we are justly entitled to the co.
operation of the teachers in making
men and women worthy Of the name
of all our girls and boys, and ap
peal to them to aid us in turning tC
the relief of our dependent children
part at least of the waste of thu
childhood of our country.
In order to do this Friday, Novem
Der %. has been suggested as thu
day for a collection in the school,
for the West Kentucky Home.
Now. dear teachers. if you vii
put yourselves into this. thus giving
liz life and interest, your schools vii
follow you and the success you will
attain will bring a sweet reward tt
both you and the children and vii
bear rich blessings to generation
yet unborn.
Yours very respectfully,
w. D. HUMPHREY

tee OF the House and was the chief ex-
pert of the committee in the framing
ley tariff act. He was trusted as an
employe as few men have been. He was
the friend and confidant Of members OF

to enter the service OF the government.
He was offered the position of Assista mt
Secretary OF the Treasury by several

long labored to establish, President
Roosevelt drafted the veteran Journalist

turn to this city from her summer vaca-
ton. early in September. The wedding
