Order is General.

CHICAGO, Feb. 19.-Ever since the
business men of Kentucky have
awakened to the fact that the insur-
ance companies probably will suspend
business in the State if the bill in
creases the powers of the States In
surance Board becomes a law, they
have been flooding the insurance COM
Danies with requests for cancellation
of their present insurance for the pur-
pose of renewing it for the longest
term possible.
This has imposed a great burden
upon the companies and also has a
tactical effect in that a business man
with his insurance taken care of for
the longest possible period would not
have the same interest in opposing a
dangerous law.
In consequence a meeting OF com
pany managers having jurisdiction in
Kentucky was held Tuesday in Chi
cago. at which it was decided to send
the following telegram to their agents
in Is of the largest cities and towns
in Kentucky.
Cancellation of policies for pur
pose of renewing will not be permit
| ted, except on usual short-rate basis
The effective way for your clients to
protect their interests and the credit
of the State is to defeat Senate Bill
109'
A circular to the same effect vii
be sent at once to all the agents out
side the larger towns.

HEAVY RAINS PUT CREEKS
IN COUNTY ON RAMPAGE

Rain, which has fallen almost un-
ceasingly for thirty-six hours up to
noon yesterday, coupled with the de-
cline in the temperature which melt
ed the heavy sonw which fell several
days ago, has had the effect of raising
all the streams of the county and until
sudden drop in the temperature yes
terday which precluded the precipita
ton was the fear of another flood
similar to the one experienced last
year, dispelled.
Both Stoner and Houston creeks
running through this city, are out OF
their banks, and the lOwlands along
their course are overflowed. Both
streams were at standstil last
night and unless there is another rain
no further raise is expected.
Reports from Millersburg yesterday
were to the effect that Hinkstor
Creek and all of it's tributaries were
out of their banks and the stream, was
raising at the rate of foot an hour
The colored suburb of Shiptown was
entirely cut off from the city by the
overflowing water The waters hat
| flowed over the Maysville pike neal
the bridge and travel was impossible
owing to the swift current. A tele
phone message from there last nigh
night stated the stream was at at {
standstill since, the rain ceased.

Local insurance agents Wednesday
received kilograms from their several

sent out by general xgents, who learn.
ed, it is said, that some of the Ken.
lucky agents were affording insurers
extended protection by cancelling out

Other insurance companies have in
structed their agents not to write any
more insurance for them in case the
Glenn rating bill becomes a law
Two kilograms received which are
similar to all the others are as fol
lows:
1--WE beg to advise that the cancel
lation of policies for purposes of re-
writing will not be permitted except
on usual short rate basis. The eff
fective way for your clients to protect
their interests and the credit of the
Safes is to defeat Senate Bill 109."
And another:
PRO rated cancellations will not be
allowed on any policies rewritten"
Practically all of the insurance
agents of this city have received no.
tees to this effect
The Glenn Bill, which has already
passed the House by vote of 62 to
rs, would give the State Board the
power to fix rates for all risks in the
State. The insurance companies are
making determined fight on the bill,
and are threatening to withdraw in a
body if the bill becomes a law.
Senator j.. VIII Clay of this Sena-
torial district, was flooded with tele-
grams from this city Wednesday, urg-
nag him to exert every effort to have
the bill pending before the Upper
House defeated.

Fight to the Finish.

FRANKFORT, Feb. 19.-Rumors
of a possible compromise between the
supporters of the bill seeking to en-
large the powers of the State Insur-
ance Board, whereby it may fix fire
insurance rates in Kentucky, and the
heads of insurance companies oppos-
ing the measure, were secuted by Ru-
by Laffoon, chairman of the Board
and one of the chief champions of the
pending biz. He declared that the
fight is finish one, and that in all
probability it will be terminated on
the floor Of the Senate chamber to
morrow, when the bill will come up in
that branch of the General Assembly
as a special order of business.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE
MEETS DEFEAT IN
LOWER HOUSE
Motion to Make Miller Meas
ure Special Order for
Tuesday Lost
FORTY-TWO FOR
MOTION THAT LOST
Eleven New Measures Are
Offered Before House
Yesterday

FRANKFORT, KY, Feb. 1.-Two
man suffrage met It's first real defeat
to-day when the House failed to sus-
tain a motion by Representative Mil
Ter, of Paducah, that his bill giving
to women the right to vote the same
as men be made a special order of
business for next Tuesday. But forty
two Representatives weref or the mo-
ton.
Eleven new measures were offered
when the House convened this morn
| ing.
Senator Arnett introduced a meas
ure for more efficient supervision of
mines and for the appointment of two
additional mine inspectors.
The Committee on Revenue and
Taxation reported favorably substi-
tute for Speer's Senate Bill, regarding
appropriations to State institutions.
The substitute provided payment only
on proved vouchers, containing an
itemized account of monthly expenses.
At the Wednesday afternoons ses-
sion of the Senate, Senator Robert
sons bill, forbidding the running at
large of domestic FOWLS in cities of
first class, was taken up and passed
by a vote of 81 to 5. Several amend
ments we're voted down.
The Senate passed the antiCigar-
cite bill by a vote OF "a to 4. The
bill makes smoking cigarettes by boys
under eighteen misdemeanor.
Hutchcraft Bill Passed.
One of the most important meas
ures to be put upon its passage was
the bill of Representative Reuben
Hutchcraft providing for the estsb-
lishment of the uniform system of ac-
counting in all State Offices. 1t was
passed by a vote of 70 to 2. The
measure provides for the installation
Of uniform, modern system Of book
keeping in all State Offices. 1t is con-
tended that the present system is an
tiquated.
Two amendments to the Eaton
| Thompson primary election law OF
1912, and the adjustment of the fell
low servant rule OF law were also
passed.

sides the exercise boys get while at
work, And there must be recreation
for the mind as well as for the body.
Boys don't set out deliberately to
become what we call criminals.
Their associations, how and where
they play, what they do evenings,
what sort Of fun they have-an these
have their influence in determining
what kind of a man a boy is going
to grow up to be.
There must be Fairgrounds legal
Fairgrounds, if you please play
grounds where boys have rights, just
as men, have rights on their golf
links-for boys who have left school
to go to work-boys of from Ii or IA
to 16 or II years of age.
In every neighborhood there is a
boys gang, or several gangs. They
start out innocently enough-there is
generally a leader, one of the boys
with a bent for leadership And if
they are chased by the cops, COM
planned of by property owners, taken
to police stations and otherwise
bounded and driven about they are
apt to learn contempt for law and
for order.
Many of them live in homes where
the air is bad, the food meager and
not the best. They can't be expected
to stay in stuffy, poorly-yentilated
houses evenings. Nature urges them
into the air-which is bad enough in
the crowded cities at best And when
they get outdoors they have no place
to go except around the corner"
They have nothing to do but get into
some sort of devilment that will give
them mental and physical stimula-
ton.
By far the great majority of boys
will play fair with the cops, the law
and the property owners if they get
fair play in return. Boys will be half |
way decent toward men and women

our own work and play that we don't
want to be bothered by the boys.
If we take an interest in boys be-
fore they get to the girl age the girls
will generally straighten out their
manners when the boys come honey
ing around; but boys need the atten-
ton of men when they haven't reach
ed the girl stage and want to asso-
ciate only with men or with other
boys. -.
l think boys who have to 60 to
work early in life resent the fact that
they can't have time for fun and play
like other boys who don't have to
work. The rich mans son is envied,
and idling boys who are having a
good time" are envied.
And these boys / am writing about.
are the ones we neglect-and we ne
elect them at time when they most
need our attention. Too often faith
ers begin neglecting them at this age,
and then keep on neglecting them
until their health is ruined by social
disease disease that is doing far
greater harm to society than tuber-
culOSlS or cancer.
We can't have too many ball
grounds or places for athletic sports.
Boys look upon baseball stars, prize
fighters and other athletes as heroes
To them Ty Cobb is bigger man
than President Wilson or Teddy
Roosevelt. And they can learn from
their athletic heroes that they must
must get restful sleep and be careful
what they put in their stomachs If
they want to have good batting eye.
They will learn temperance in eat
ing and drinking much quicker by
knowing the influence of intemper-
ance on their bodies than they win
learn it through tracts, sermons and
editorials.
We should teach boys how to play,
and we can't teach them how to NAV
