rowed in sums ranging from $50 to
$1,000 on a 5 per cent simple interest.
The time is to be from five to ten
years. This plan was taken to aid the
millmen to recover from the losses

dent OF the First National bank sub

To Inspect Normal Accounts,

A letter, written by President J. 4.
Crabbe, Of the Eastern Kentucky Nor
NAL, to Supt ]. Il. Lenter. Of Clark
county, was the center OF interest OF
the Sinking Fund Commission in Gov.
McCreary's office.
The letter explained that there viii
be no convocation OF superintendent
at the Normal School this year, be-
cause the institution is cutting of
every expense that Is possible, and
added: But the truth must be plainly
told. We are not receiving a single
dollar of revenue, nor have we been
receiving any revenue for months. The
state auditor, upon the. authority OF
the attorney-general, refuses to issue
warrants for appropriations. and the
state treasurer says there Is no money
in the state treasury"
State Auditor II. NJ. Bosworth rs
serted that his office has issued war
rants to the Eastern Kentucky Normal
between March 81, 1912, and January
16, 1913, aggregating ss5.00003: and
that since July /. 1912, he has issued
warrants to the institution amounting
to $4,000. The warrant for the $685.
600 additional appropriated by the
General Assembly OF 1912 for the East
ern Kentucky Normal, he said, has
been held up, pending the Court of APP
peals decision in the suit of Commits
sioner OF Agriculture J. w. Newman
against State Treasurer Thomas Rhea.
to require the latter to stamp interest.
bearing State Fair warrants aggregat-
Ing $4,000. In this suit is involved
the question of the right of the auditor
to issue and the treasurer to stamp AZ
interest-bearing warrants for appro.
priations out of amy money In the
treasury not otherwise appropriat I'd,
when the states floating debt exceeds
the constitutional limit of 100000 aud
there is no money In the treasury.
Upon the statement of the auditor.
the commission called in Inspector and
Examiner Sherman Goodpaster, and he
was instructed to make an immediate
inspection Of the books of the Eastern
Kentucky Normal. Mr.. Goodpaster
and Assistant Inspector Lawrence
White will go to Richmond soon to be-
gin the inspection.
The commissioners announced that
the reason for ordering the inspection
was to ascertain what the school had
done with the $4,000, and why the
teachers are being paid In script in
stead Of cash.

RECONSTRUCTION.
BACKBONE OF STATE AND ITS
CITIES IS TO BE TESTED.
Public Service Corporations viii Re
quire Millions to Replace Damage
to Railroad and Traction Lines.

Columbus, O.-Ohio faces the larg-
est problem OF reconstruction and re
financing IL has ever met. Every pub
lie service corporation has been hit
and hit hard. Every county has met
with a staggering loss OF property.
Every municipality has had its burden
doubled or quadrupled. Indicative OF
the situation. Franklin county has lost
46 bridges, which will cost a million
to replace. A similar situation exists
in every county In the state, differing
only in degree. This does not include
the damage done to highways and
small culverts and little bridges.
IL IL estimated 1t will require $780,
100000 TO restore the bridges claimed
by the food. Cities. villages, town
ships and districts must shoulder that
load.
Municipalities will have the great
burden OF caring for the unfortunate
and the more extensive problem OF re-
building itself with a greatly decreas-
ed tax duplicate. Bonds will have to
be sold to raise the funds. There is
no other way of financing and bonds
are slow sale in Ohio now with the
taxation added and the many open
problems effecting municipal seeuri-
ties.
Railroads Lose Heavily.
The Pennsylvania announced that II
would take 100000 to replace the
washed-out bridges in Ohio on its
lines. This does not include damage
to tracks. II will take six months TO
put the Ohio lines in condition for fast
travel, the officers claim.
The B. & o. and other lines have
suffered in proportion. These needs
must be financed. Every foot of ma.
terial for piling, bridges and quick
construction the roals could find In
four states have been bought and load
ed for shipment into Ohio and Indiana
Every traction line in the state has
been cut in bits by washouts. Bridges
have gone, tracks torn up and enor
nous damage done. These needs will
have TO be financed. II will test tht
fiber and foundation of both the large
and the small corporations.
Estimates made on developments in
dictate there will be a smaller loss o.
life than was feared but that the prop
erty loss, minimized during the acute
ness of the flood, will be much greater
than the early estimates.
1t looks now that the estimate o
Gov. Cox that the loss in propert,
would exceed the Frisco AMOUNT, viii

The best nsure5 are that the state
will lose not less than $500.000.0oo

Remarkable Invention Of a Man Who
Lost His Laryns.

The ancient proyerb, Necessity Is
the mother OF invention" was never
better exemplified than in the remark

dler in Almansa. near Carthagena.
Pereda awoke one day slightly hoarse,
and his aiilictlon became steadily worse

MED him to Madrid TO consult spe-
cialist FRO
DR.. Tapia made lengthy examina-
ton of the patient and communicated
his impressions To the wife much after
this fashion: Your husband has can
Ger in the arynx. Without an opera
ton he will surely die. II he is oper-
ated upon We can save his life, but he
will remain dumb. because it will be
necessary TO remove the vocal chords"
Surgical Intervention was decided
upon, and DR., Tapia proceeded to re-
move the larynx, employing Perier's
method Thus two operations were
performed, one In October 1910. aud
one In November
The despair Of the poor fellow on
recognizing that he had been deprived
of speech knew no bounds, ahd he be
gan to display symptoms OF dementia.
Or. Tapia then provided him with an
apparatus invented by Gluck, the well
known German laryngologist, with
which II would he possible 10 articu-

great fatigue.
Pereda was not to be beaten, how
ever, and Ee began TO turn the matter
over In his mind and eventually evolv-
ed rude apparatus which he after
ward managed to perfect. In this con
dition both patient and apparatus were
presented to the Royal Academy Of
Medicine by Or. Tapia, and to the sur

Since then the apparatus has been
further improved, and a few weeks ago
