COMMISSION form
OF GOVERNMENT.

Even the smaller towns nave
learned that the best government is
obtained by non-partisan officials
and the day Is not far off when such
a thing as party lines in a munich
pal election will be unheard of. Clin-
ton last night held a mass meeting
at which nominations were made for
all of the city Offices, and Eminenee.
Ky, is forming an organization to
petition the legislature to permit
towns OF It's class to adopt the COM
mission charter. Louisville already
has an organization that Is working
toward the same end and the third
class cities, Owensboro, Henderson,
Hopkinsyille, F'ranfort and Bowling
Green would surprise no one If they
fell in line for the modern charter.
Only Paducah in the second class
cities of Kentucky sticks to the 0 d
obsolute charter. Paducah Sun.

SATURDAY WAS
LONGEST day OF
PRESENT YEAR

Saturday was the longest day OF
the year and at. the same time one of
the most uncomfortable although
the thermometer at its highest only
registered 96 but the humidity was
so dense that one could cut huge
chunks out of the atmosphere with
blunt cheese knife.
From sunrise to sunset Saturday
IA hours and 43 minutes elapsed.
Each succeeding day will grow
shorter by one minute until the
shortest day in the yeaf rolls around.
Observer Lindley made good with
his predictions of thunder showers
the only objection being that the
showers were restricted to the ball
yard and were not sufficiently gen.
eral to suit the exacting public.
If the predictions do not go wrong
today we are to have cooler weather
with prbable thunder showers.

The director of a French Techni-
cal college Mr. A. Magnan, has an
nounced before the Academy of Sci
ences the discovery of formula by
means of which he expects to solve
many of the remaining puzzling
problems of aeronautics.
Up to the present, says M. Mag
nan. aeroplanes have been con-
structed practically without refer
ence to natures own principles as
exemplified in the flight of birds. 1t
has been thought that the great
relative difference in weight between
a bird and an aeroplane made the
fundamental principles of bird flight
inapplicable to the man made ma
chine. NJ Magnan declares his for
muIa solves this difficulty. BY means
of it he is now able for the first time
to give the dimensions, curves and
other figures of a man-lifting ma
chine constructed on the principles
OF bird fight. 1t is simply ques.
ton. he declares, of magnifying the
bird measurements according to a
formula which viii scientifically ad.
just the various parts as the human
machine increases In size.

CHINESE PERIL

Paris, June 21.-Paris now has
its Chinatown. The first settlers ar
rived year ago, at the time of the
last Chinese revolution. One day a
large family of refugees from the
Middle Kingdom presented them
selves before the Police Commissary
of the Bastile quarter and requested
by signs to be shown a lodging.
They were asked their amts, and
where they came from. In reply
they traced on paper heiroglyphs
which nobody could understand. AS
they had good golden louis in their
pockets the officials did not insist,
and led them to two inexpensive
lodging houses close by the Lyons
railroad depot.
Soon other families joined them,
and now they number seevral hum

men sally out to buy rice, turnips
and potatoes which they cook them
selves in their rooms. Then they set
to work making toys which the
women and children sell all over the
city. Some of the chi dren juggle
with knives in wine shops. As
these eastern colonists are peaceful
and silent and pay regularly they
are popular guests with the lodging
house proprietors The people of
Paris look upon them with benign
curiosity. The children in particu-
