The Greatest General.

All things duly considered, the
greatest general of whom we have
any knowledge was in all probabili-
ty the Carthaginian, Hannibal. All
the information we have of Hanni-
bal comes from his enemies, and yet
what achievements they were fore
ed to credit him with! The second
Punic war-the most brilliant in
history-was practically one man
against a whole nation, and that
the strongest then known. With
the army that he had nodded out of
raw and barbarous levies Hannibal
had to fight a nation of the stoutest
and best trained warriors of ancient
times, and he had to do this without
any assistance from home. 1t has
been we'll said that there is nowhere
else so good an example of what a
single man of genius may achieve
against the most tremendous odds.

THE ISSUE

The question for the Democratic
voters to decide in the August pri-
mary is whether the combined
whiskey and beer interests of the
State shall rule Kentucky, or if the
people shall conduct the affairs Of
the State. Stanley, one of the can
didates, has always stood with those
interests whenever any question af-
fecting the liquor trusts have come
up, and in this race he has the solid
backing of the liquor people.
McChesney, on the other hand,
believes that the liquor question
should be taken out of politics, and
in order to hasten the day when this
shall be true, he expresses himself
strongly in favor Of submitting the
question Of State wide prohibition
to vote of the people. If this is
done the question will be taken out
of the hands of the Legislature, and
this body can then devote its time to
other questions that are Of great
Importance to the people Of the
State and which too long have been
allowed to drift, by the continued
meddling of the liquor trusts in all
questions coming up in the Legisla-
ture. The time is now here to get
rid Of the pernicious influence Of
the liquor element by casting your
vote for Fl. V. McChesney for Gov
ernor.-Warren County Courier.

VETS OPPOSE HARRY
v. M'CHEsNEy
will Openly Fight Him In Favor oil
Stanley, Who, Like Morrow,
Has Their o. K.

The Kentucky Distillers' Associa-
ton, at recent meeting at Louis
vile, adopted resolutions expressing
in vigorous terms its disapproval of
candidates making State wide pro-
hibition an issue in the present
political campaign. The resolutions
pledge unqualified support to the
present county unit law.
While mention Of particular can
didates or parties was avoided care
fully at the meeting, it is well under
stood that the action of the distill-
ers is aimed at Harry V. McChes-
ney, who is seeking the Democratic
gubernatorial nomination on a pro-
hibitiou platform. In fact, Mr..
McChesney is the only candidate
for the nomination who is running
on the Statewide prohibition issue.
The address and resolutions
amount, therefore, to an appeal to
the people to defeat Mr.. McChesney
in the primary.
The members Of the Association
really favor Stanley, who, like
Morrow, is free from "dry" ten
denotes and their alleged loyalty to
Tho county unit comes trifle late,
in view of the fact that they fought
its adoption for years before the
legislature and since then have
opposed it in every way known to
the law.

America to serve on an advisory

Of devising new inventions for re-

Picking Face Out Of the Crowd BY
the Scientific Process.


"For the first time in its his
tory the New York detective force
found itself with real, scientific
criminal hunter as its chief when
Detective Captain Joseph A. Faurot
was made acting inspector during
the graft revelations which came on
the heels of the murder of the gam
bier Rosenthal," says a writer in
the American Magazine.
'1n DAYS gone by the detective
arm of the city's police system de-
pended on such men as W. p. Sheri-
dan, the man with the camera eye,'
as he was called, to identify crooks.
Sheridan had wonderful eye and
a freak memory for faces, bat there
are few men with such unusual
qualifications, and the underworld
has tremendous population that
seems to grow with each generation.
"Faurot, handsome, soft spok-
en- man, is the American Bertillon.
He has taught New York's 700 and
more detectives how to pick face
out Of the crowd by modern, scien-
tific methods.
"The BULL as the New York de-
tective is known to the crooks, does
not depend upon a photograph. If
the crook he is after has ever been
in the hands of Faurot's headquar-
tiers men his Bertillon record will
show that he has one of three kinds
of human nose, 'vexe, rect or cave,
as Bertillon classified them. If he
has a eoncave nose, say, then his
search is confined to faces showing
that particular form of feature. All
the others are eliminated.
"Then there are only four kinds
Of human ears, the triangular, oval,
square and round. Say his crook
has an oval ear. This eliminates
all those who have ears of the other
sort and brings his field down to
luOSt WIZ HdFV COuCdNc uOStS anu
oval ears. By this wedding out
process the Bertillon detective has
put aside the thousands who have
any of the combinations of ear and
nose that might be made with these
seven types of features save the one
combination of concave nose and
oval ear.
eff one of Faurot's scientifically
taught men lands a suspect he can
check up on him surely. The hui
man face is divided into twenty
seven sections and in each section
the Bertillon chart will show its
peculiarities. The process of elimi-
nation will gradually exclude every
human being but this one man, US
ing the calculus of probabilities.
"Finally nature herself comes to
the aid Of the detective with the
finger prints, for she has given to
each Of US one certain individual
stamp that never changes and that
cannot be changed-the rings, 'is-
lands whorls and parabolas to be
found on the inner cuticle of the
digits."

Cedars of Lebanon.

Only some 400 of the famous for
est of cedars of Lebanon remain,
and they have been inclosed by a
stone wall, necessary to protect the
smaller trees from the ever hungry
mountain goat. The cedars stand
on a small plateau at an elevation
of slightly over 5000 feet. A wind
ing road from Bsherreh leads up
the slope to the spot where the an
cient trees excite the wonder and
admiration of tourists. The high
est rears its top eighty feet sky

Tho Oldest Tune.

What is the oldest tune in the
world? AT the battle of Leipzig,
about 100 years ago, where Napo-
leon was beaten, Bonaparte walk
ed about softly whistling the tune
of "Malbrook sen va-t-en guerre."
1t is a very old tune and has many
words put to it. II is the tune that
has acquired "We Won't Go Home

coLoRED COUNTY INSTITUTE

| leacnerS INSTITUTE, winch was neld
at the High street Christian church
the week Of July 9Th, is without
parallel in the manner of interest
and enthusiasm expressed on the
part of the teachers. From the
very beginning to the end each one
seemed to have been lost to every
thing saving the work of the insti-
tute, and each subject was discuss
ed with increasing interest.
The instruction received at tn T..
institute will do much toward en-
abling the teachers to make the
schools of Montgomery county sec
ond to none in Kentucky.
Following are the resolutions
which were adopted by the
institute.
Mr.. President and Teachers,-
We, your committee on resolu-
tons, beg leave to submit the fol-
lowing report:
Whereas, We, the teachers of
Montgomery county are assured
that we have been mutually benefit
ed beyond that which we have re-
ceived in any institute in recent
years, and whereas, by reason Of
the high order of the institution
which we have received here, and
the many new and excellent methods
that have been made so clear and
plain to us, thereby arousing within
US new, and what we believe will
be lasting enthusiasm, be it re-
solved:
(1). That we go back to our diff
ferent fields of labor much encour-
aged and with a full determination
to use every effort within our
power to do more and better work
in the present year than in the
past.
(2) That we are very grateful to
our superintendent, Miss George V.
Sledd for the interest manifested in
the colored schools of Montgomery
county, and for the excellent judg-
ment exercised in selecting so ex
cellent man, such thorough and
accomplished scholar as Prof. W. Fl.
Fouse to conduct our institute, and
that we, as body of teachers, do
now petition her to secure his ser
vices as our institute instructor for
next school year.
(3) That we extend our heart
felt thanks to Prof. Fouse for the
very able manner in which he has
conducted our institute, and for
the very clear and masterful way in
whic hhe has instructed us, bring
ing to us several new methods which
we shall endeavor to use in our
schools this year.
(4) That we heartily commend
him to any superintendent desiring
an able, experienced and thoroughly
prepared institute instructor, feel
ing, however that we have. first
claim on his services for next year,
and trust that it will be as conven-
lent for him to be with us as we
are anxious to have him.
(5) That we extend our thanks
to the pastor and members Of the
High street Christian church for
the use of their beautiful edifice in
which our meetings were held; to
Mrs. Viola Chenault and Prof.
Fouse for excellent music rendered,
and to the other ministers of the
city whose remarks and presence
have added interest to our meetings.
(6) That we are especially grateful
to Prof. and Mrs. G. W. Adams for
the very delightful, courteous and
elaborate way in which they enter
tanned the institute at the "Old
Plantation" dinner which they gave
in our honor. Wishing them long
and happy life, We desire them TO
know that the excellent things said.
