The five battleships at Vera Cruz

President Wilson is hopeful that
evacuation of Vera Cruz will be an
enduring demonstration of the policy
of the United States enunciated in
his Mobile speech a year ago to seek
no territorial ACKNOWLEDGEMENT south
of the Rio Grande. He believes con-

down upon this city with the object
OF destroying the Zeppelin balloon

The British airmen first were seen
above Constance at 2 o'clock in the
afternoon and their presence immed-

at Friedrichshafen by telephone.
When they appeared at Friedrich

machine guns Immediately opened

dropped six bombs, two of which
came so near the building as to cause
tremor of apprehension. Two 9TH

and wounding woman.
One of the flyers attempted to
cross the hall at a height of only a
quarter of a mile. Bullets from
guns on the tops of buildings, how
ever, pierced the aeroplane's gaso-

glide to earth. On reaching the
ground he tried to defend himself

head. The point where the aeroplane
landed was only 300 feet from the

EDITORIAL COMMENTS.
Tom Long.

In every city there are some men
whose worth is appreciated by every
body and whose friends are found
in every walk of life. Tom Long was
one of these. His popularity was
wide, his reputation was without a
blemish and his character formed a
just basis for his reputation and the
opinion held of him by those among
whom he was born, spent all his days
and ended his career in the prime of
a well.spent life. He possessed a
keen intelligence, high order of in
tegrity and the ability to Judge men.
He was kind-hearted, generous and
true and yet was seldom imposed
upon. His knowledge of human
nature enabled him to make few mis-
takes in granting favors. He was
born a banker, in that he knew whom
to trust. In his daily life he was al
ways polite, and his courtesy was
unfailing. His personal following
was as large as any man ever had in
the city and yet he never used his
influence for his own benefit. He
might have had offices for the asking
and yet he never sought an Office.
He preferred to help his friends, and
no man was truer or more devoted
to his friends. AS citizen he was
always progressive and far. seeing.
In many ways he showed his love for
his native city and much of his work
in building up Hopkinsville was of a
lasting character. The great insti.
tuition of which he had been an Off
Ger from its organization, could
always be relied upon to take the
lead in every progressive movement
He was not only good business
man, but he was a devoted christian
who measured his daily deeds by the
golden rule. He was a friend at all
times to the poor and needy and
while he made money for others he
saved little for himself, because of
the liberality of his heart and the
unselfishness of his nature. He was
never very strong physically, but his
energy was without limit. He died
in the midst of his usefulness and at
time when life seemed to be open
ing a new vista for him and to hold
out the promise of less strenuous
life, and a gradual approach to the
end of well-spent career in the
ease and comfort that an increased
income would bring. Why such a
man should have been taken all too
soon is one of the things that we
cannot understand. He has answer
ed an untimely call, but he was
ready to go. Let us keep his mem

In 40 MILES
OF WARSAW
Germans Are Again Threaten
ing The Capital Of
Poland.
IS QUIET ALONG THE USER
Servia Is Being Hard Pressed
And Is In Danger OF
Defeat.

London, Nov. 23.-The veil of Sc
crecy has been drawn over the bat
ties between the Russians and the
Austro-German forces. Headquart-
ers of both armies confne themselves
to briefest statements, saying merely
that fighting continues.
News from unofficial sources, how
ever, shows the German advance has
penetrated farther into Poland than
previously disclosed. Warsaw is
threatened for a second time. Gen.
Won Hindenburg's army has advanced
as far as the Lowicz-Skierniewice
line, or two. thirds of the way to the
Polish capital, from which they now
are only forty miles distant. Earth
err south in Poland, however, the
Teuton allies are said to have been
repulsed between Radon and Kielce.
The battle in East Prussia seems
to have died down, but the Russians
continue to advance in Galicia and
still are fighting on the Czenstoch-
owa-C racow front.
The battle in Poland, in the direc-
ton of Lowicz, is the most critical
one and the Germans have the great
est confidece in the outcome, but
Petrograd military observers declare
Russia's overwhelming superiority
in numbers again must tell, as when
the Germans made their first attack
on Warsaw.
In Flanders and in France the
armies seem to be enjoying a long
deserved rest. The only evidence
that the belligerents are facing each
other is an occasional bombardment
with heavy guns.
An eyewitness with British head
quarters, in long statement made
public today, gives official confrma-
tion of heavy German losses at Ypres.
He speaks of decimated battalions,
of hundreds of dead left before the
trenches and of patches of bodies
found in farm houses. Casualty
lists show that the British forces also
have suffered severely.
The Servians are making stand
against the Austrians in well chosen
fortified positions on the Kolumbaria
river, but rs the Austrians command
superior forces, it seems apparent
that unless other Balkan states come
into the war Servia is facing defeat.
The recruiting campaign in the
British Isles resulted today in bring
ing many men to the colors. Troops
with banners flying and bands play
ing marched through the east end OF
London to Victoria park, where
speakers addressed the crowds from
early morning until late this evening

MRS. KATE LONG YOUNG
Died With Shocking SuddenneSS
Late Friday Afternoon.

The circumstances of the death of
Mrs. Kate Young, Friday evening,
just fifteen hours before her broth
er, Thomas w. Long passed away
were shocking in suddenness. Mrs.
Young was in her usual good health
to all appearances and had spent the
afternoon with her brother who was
ill and who was seemingly in no
danger. She had been on the streets
in the forenoon and after luncheon
made some calls before going to Mr..
Longs. She returned to her home
at Mr.. H. H. Abernathy's just be-
fore night and talked for a while
with Mrs. Alternately and then went
to her own room. A few minutes
later Mrs. Alternately heard her fall
and rushing to the room found her
lying unconscious on the floor, near
a chair in which she had been sitting.
She died in a few minutes without
regaining consciousness. Her
death was due to a sudden attack of
heart failure.
Mrs. Young was a daughter of the
late Gabriel B. and Martha Long and
was born in Hopkinsville. In 1870
she was married 10 DR.. Jas. A.
Young who became one Of the lead
ing physicians and most prominent
citizens of the city. He died a few
years ago. Their family consisted
of four children. Miss Matte Young
died several years ago and not long
afterwards the oldest son, a fine
young business man, Jas. A. Young,
Jr., was killed by accident. She is
survived by one son and one daugh-
ter, Daniel Young, of San Diego,
CAL, and Miss Ellen Young, of
Boston. Her daughter arrived Sun
day night from the East.
Mrs. Young was lifelong and de-
voted member of the Christian
church. In all works of charity and
helpfulness to others she found con-
genial occupation and her death
leaves a void in the church and the
community that will never be filled.
Her funeral was held with that of
her brother, Thos. w. Long. at the
Christian church at two o'clock yes
terday afternoon, conducted by Rev.
j. T. Hawkins. of Elkton, and she
was laid to rest in Riverside ceme-
terry.

nathy. DR.. Manning Brown, DIR. c.
