Y. M. {. A. Committees
and Announcements of
Importance Are Made

Two very important announcements
were given out today by Robt. McCul-
loch, president of the Y. NJ. c. A.
board of directors, the announcement
Of the full list of directors and gener-
al committees who will hold office and
direct the activities of the association
during the coming year and the an
nouncement of a new membership rate
for older boys. The board also extend
ed the short term nonresident men,
bership to apply to nonresident at
privilege to male school teachers as
well. The ruling concerning older
boys memberships is considered an
important action as 1t will do much to
hold older boys graduating out of the
boys department into the mems de-
partment, at a time when the boys
have less earning power and need
the associations influence and help.
The new membership rulings are as
follows:
Hereafter all older boys between the
ages of IS and 20 inclusive will be-
classed as senior intermediates and
be charged So a ear for membership
in the association and nonresident
students Of the same age will be
charged on the same pro rata basis,
$3.50 for six months and SO for three
months as per short term membership
rules already in vogue. The privi-
leges Of such memberships are as fol-
lows: r.
Each such member to be booked as
boy department members, using lock-
ers in the boys department only, ex-
tended privileges at swimming and on
the gymnasium floor as the regular
schedule will permit, and also allowed
to use mems billiard equipment when
ever the boys tables are in use, at
boys rates, and also bowling at mems
hours up to $50 p. m. at boys rates.
Such members purchasing their tickets
from the boys office and being reported
as boys department members, as using
boys department privileges.
Nonresident students will also here
after be allowed to purchase short term
memberships at any time of the year
rather than only during January, Feb
ruary and March, as the rule now
reads.
On account Of the close relation be-
tween the association and the public
schools and colleges, the short term
nonresident student rates Were also
extended to all male resident and nom
resident school teachers.

LARGE NUMBER OF DEEDS
Many Pieces Of Property, Farm and
City, Changing Hands-Hish
Prices Are Paid.

An unusual number Of deeds have
been recorded In the office Of the reg
lister of deeds during the past month.
and the number yesterday and today
was unprecedented. A large amount
OF farm property is changing hands,
and considerable city property also.
Some of the farm details involve
large sums and indicate the rising val
lles of Cass county farm property. A
of land near Erie sold for $46,-
500 or more than s72 per acre. Another
section sold for $4,000 and a half Sec
ton near Addison, southeast OF Cassel-
ton, sold for 1000.
These values are not unusual, some
of the land in Cass county having
brought 500 per acre. With the sue
cess OF corn growing in this section
assured. land will doubtless soon be
even higher than that.

NEW CHAPTER IN
HISTORY OF MEDICINE

New and redlettered pages were
written into the history of medical
science this year at London, according
to DR.. John B. Murphy, back in Chi
cage from the sessions of the Interna-
tional Medical Congress at London.
Among the more important discov-
cries are the following:
Science can prove absolutely here
after whether blood stains left on the
scene of a crime are those of animals
or human beigs, a matter of guess
heretofore.
While the chemical composition of
human blood has been found distinctly
different from any other known form
Of animate life, the blood of the chin
panzee more closely resembles that
of man than does the blood of other
animals, being the first material con-
frmationof Darwin's theory of evo-
luton ever brought out by science.
Cross-breeding of mice subject to
cancer has developed a species i'm
mune from the disease. This is the
frst time experimenters have ever
developed immunity from the disease
and offers medical history's first hope
that humanity may be made immune
from the scourge.

SHALL CHINESE BOY GO TO
WHITE OR COLORED SCHOOL

A confession that the Kentucky At
torney-Generafs staff cannot deter
mine whether Superintendent H. o.
Sloss, of the Covington Public School
may send the Chinese boy who en-
tered the public schools there, to the
negro or white schools, may be given
TO State Superintendent Barksdale
Hamlet in a few days. The question
is entirely new in Kentucky. The
constitution and the statutes deal
only with the white and the negro
schools. In he case of this Chinese
boy an international question is in
yolved.
When Assistant Attorney General
Logan was asked what would be his
decision in the case, he replied:
Il don't know. It's a question
don't know anything about, and what
is the use of saying that the question
will be solved when there is no law in
this State bearing on the question
have not given the question thorough
study yet, but SO far | have not been
able to find any law or authority on
the question"
He is of the opinion that the boy
is entitled to go to school, and the
and the only difficulty is where to
place him. In the constitution the
word ''colored" when applied to
school children in the statutes of this
State means negro children.

$500 900 PLUM DANGLED
BEFORE SUN POLICYHOLDERS

Inspectors for the State Insurance
Department will go to New York
about the first of the year to get
fist of policyholders in the old Sun
Life Insurance Co., of Louisville, who
entitled to the paid-up value of their
insurance, having paid the premiums
for five years. This company was alb
sorbed by the Metropolitan.
Several months ago Insurance Conn
missioner Clay undertook to secure
such 2, list, and was enjoined by the
company, which agreed to prepare a
list and advertise it itself. Commits
sioner Clay desired to bring the list
back and file it in the department
here. Judge Stout, II the Franklin

sioner has a right to get the list.

ers, who numbered several thousand,

MODEL ROAD MOVEMENT
STARTED IN NICHOLAS COUNTY

The movement at Carlisle for a
model road from Millersburg to
Sharpsburg via Carlisle, is at fever
heat as the result of letter received
nv Judge James Mitchell from Con-
.ressman Fields, which indicates
that funds will probably be available
for government aid of the enterprise.
The letter from Congressman Fields
states that the North Carolina fund
win not be available for the Kentucky
proposition, as the former State will
use the appropriation, but that he
finds that the department now has
$4,000 available for road work, and
that other sums will be coming into
that fund by October / and it is be-
lieved that the Nicholas county peo-
pie will have a good chance to secure
their appropriation out of these funds.
A mass meeting of the citizens was
held in Carlisle Saturday afternoon,
when definite plans were made and
subscriptions taken for the local
money for the building of the road.
Interest is so great that a number
of large subscriptions have already
been assured 1t is said that the
building of the model road from Mt.
Sterling to Sharpsburg, which is
already assured, and this road from
Sharpsburg via Carlisle to Millers-
burg, will make one of the longest
stretches of model road in the coun-
try, as the roads from Millersburg to
Paris, Lexington, Versailles, Frank
fort, Shelbyvilie and Louisville are
now good.
