RECEPTION
Given By MIR. James E. Wilhelm
And Daughter Of Cerulean
W ~
Springs.

One of the most delightful. as vel
as elaborate social affairs ever giver
at Cerulean Springs was the after
noon reception last Friday afternoon
to the ladies of that little classic city
and vicinity. given by Mr.. James E.
Wilhelm and daughter, Miss Ella B.
Wilhelm. at The Wilhelm Hotel, in
which they were assisted by Mrs.
Henry S. Gooch, of Louisville, and
Mrs. Thula Nickel, of Cerulean
Springs.
From three to five o'clock the
guests were entertained on the YER
andas and lawn, and a dainty lunch
con, ices and lunch were served,
during which hours musical selec-
tions were rendered by an ochestra
from Hopkinsville; the floral deco
rations were furnished by a local
firm. If the affair of Friday is an
index of similar ones to be given by
the owners of The Wilhelm at that
most popular resort during the COM
ing season, the guests sojourning
there may expect to be entertained
royalty.

Aged Founder Of Great Relief
Organization Passes
Away.
A WORLD FAMOUS WOMAN
Had Passed Her Ninetieth
Birthday In Works Of
Mercy.

Washington. April Is Miss Clara
Barton, founder Of the American
Red Cross, and probably the most
widely. known American woman of
her day, died at her home. Red
Cross. in Glen Echo, Md. Friday
morning at 9 o'clock. She was nine
ty years old.
Miss Barton suffered an attack of
pneumonia in February, 1911, had a
relapse and the disease became
chronic. She celebrated-her Goth birth
day anniversary December 25. when
she received many messages of con-
gratulations from all parts of the
world.
Clara Barton might properly be
called the Florence Nightingale Of
America. Like her British prototype
her works of mercy we're not con-
fined to her native land but were
carried into the Eastern hemisphere.
She will be written down in history
as the founder of the Red Cross in
America, but her powerful personal
ity also made an indelible impression
upon the international organization
itself through her active participa-
ton in the periodical conferences at
Geneva, Rome, Vienna and St. Pet
ersburg.
Miss Barton was forty years old
when she first turned her attention
in the direction of Red Cross affairs.
That organization was established
in America in 1881. and Miss Barton
was its president from that date I'M
til 1904. Before that time she had
made a name for herself by her ser
vices on battlefelds, beginning in
the Civil war and extending through
the Franco-Prussian war. Congress
recognized her good Offices in the
first case by an appropriation of
$4,000 to be disbursed By her in
searching for missing men after the
various great battles of the war.
She distributed relief to the suff
erers from the Johnstown food and
went to Russia in 1892 to carry food
to the famine sufferers there. In
the following year she vas minister.
ing to the destitute survivors of the
tidal wave which Struck South Caro-
lima and Florida. In 1896 she was
aiding the American families deci-
mated by the Turks and when yellow
fever appeared among the american
troops in Cuba following the battles
around Santiago it was Clara Barton
who at the request Of President Nc
Kinley, organized field hospitals and
personally spent her time on the bat
tie lines. Her last work of national
was in connection with
the great Galveston food relief in
1900.

BUGS DESTROY
POTATO CROPS


ures for the open air come from. the
fashionable avenue of the Bots de
Boulogne, where on dusty Sunday
afternoon a total of $4,000 microbes
per cubic yard were measured. In Z
general way it is found that the num-
Der of microbes has doubled in Paris
in the last thirty years.
The war in TrlpolI, which continues
in a desultory fashion. has given
scientists, particularly psychologists,
an opportunity to make valuable ex-
aminations and discoveries in ancient
ruins, When the Arabs and Turks
were driven from Ain-Zara, a great
MOSAIC. consisting of many temples
and of numerous magnificent pieces
of sculpture, was found in the out
skirts.
A little further on the scientists
came upon an even more interesting
discovery. This was vast Roman
villa, with fountains, baths and bath
ing pools, During the life of the
Romans, Ain-zara and its environs
was a center of elegant life, accord,
ing to several historians, and these
discoveries go to prove the truth OF
their statements.
The great feature in the Paris
world of fashion this winter is the

French Farmers Suffer New
Scourge, Which Causes a
Great Loss.

PARIS, Jan 27.-French farmers
are threatened with new scourge
in the form of a parasite which at
tacks potatoes. 1t is an insect which
in its adult state becomes a butter
fly, but which as larva burrows
tunnels in the potatoes and stalks,
killing the plant and rendering the
root totally unfit for food, even for
animals.
In New Zealand, Algeria and Portu-
gal the parasite has caused veritable
disasters. In France its ravages
have been confined to the department
of the Var, where it has been prac-
tically impossible to pick up one
sound potato from the crop.
The Ministry of Agriculture is TAX
ing measures to prevent the spread
of this insect plague and farmers are
being shown how the insect may be
destroyed by frequent use of sui
phate of carbon.
Madame Yvette Guilbert has finally
completed the plans of her House of
Art" the little theater in which she
proposes to have played only the
works of the leading poets and play
wrights. as well as those of members
of society whose talents as authors
remain yet undiscovered.
81 am going to give" said Madame
Guilbert, real poetry and real music.
With that object in view l have
gathered together a carefully-picked
little orchestra and l have addressed
myself to a number of poets who will
reveal to the public their favorite
works. am convinced that there
are a number of persons of grea,
talent whose works only reach a
small, exceptionally cultured circle
of readers. and / fiatter myself that
have discovered some minds whose
productions would be very acceptable
to the intellectual world.
stHs
Researches of two French scientists
show. it is asserted. that no fewer
than fourteen million microbes per
cubic yard were found in the air of
the room at recent exhibition of
pictures in Paris. Tests made show
that in the crowded downtown section
of Paris each cubic yard of atmos-
phere contains an average of forty
Ave thousand microbes, while in the
late afternoon when the crowd is
densest, the number leaps to ninety
eight thousand. The top notch fig
