Tracing a Soul
to Its Precious LipeS.

This scientist puts certain excep.
tional subjects into a hypnotic sleep.
and by means Of downward passes
makes them trace back the whole
course, not only OF their present e1-
btence. but Of previous existences.
He takes them back succesHvely to
their youth and down to the extreme
limit OF their infancy. At each OF
these stages the subject assumes
the consciousness, the character and
state OF mind which he possessed at
that stage of his life. He goes over
the same events with their Joys and
sorrows. II he has been Ill he passes
through his illness, his convalescence
and his recovery. II the subject has
been a mother she goes through the
anxieties and sufferings OF that
period. After that she goes back to

KENTUCKY JAILS SEEM
TO BE "LOOSE" PRISONS

The statement in the papers dur
ing the past few days that four men
broke jail at Elizabethtown, KY, a
few days ago recalls that hardly a
day passes that some point does not
report to the daily press an out
break of Jail prisoners. This is be-
coming entirely too common an oc-
currence and some steps should be
taken to stop it. The trouble may
be caused by carelessness on the
part of the keepers, and then 1t may
be that the construction of our jails
is defective. We venture the state
ment that one hundred men or
Whereabouts have broken Jail in Ken
lucky this year. Such should not be
permitted to continue and those
charged with the keeping of our
criminals should see to it that steps
are taken to stop these wholesale
outbreaks and that at once.-GCadiz

destiny bestowed upon the United

COMPENSATION LAW IS
EXPLAINED IN POINTS
The Employer Must Be First
To Accept Or Reject the
Measure.

Frankfort, KY, May 12.-In a let
ter to the secretary, Alexander Gil
mour, the Workmen's Compensation
Board, through Chairman Robert T.
Caldwell, answered the mooted ques-
tion regarding the status of the EN-
ployer as to the legal defenses,
where both he and his employee have
rejected the terms of the compensa-
ton act.
The act provides that if the en-
ployer rejects the terms of the act
and is sued for damages for per-
sonal injuries by an employee. he
loses all his common law defenses,
while if an employe rejects the COM
pensation offered by the act, the en-
ployer, if sued, retains all his pres
ent defenses. The board said no
situation could arise wherein they
might concurrently reject the act.
THE employer must make the
first move alone" said Mr.. Caldwell.
IF he rejects, then he forfeits his
common law defenses against any
employe who sues him. No employee
could accept the act if the employer
rejected it. If the employer accepts
the act, then for the first time the
employe can exercise his election.
If he also accepts, then both are I'M
der the act and compensation liza
bility is accordingly substituted for
previously existing rights of action
at law.
eff, however, following the en-
ployer's acceptance, the employe
does not accept and join with him,
then such employe, if retained in
his employment, could sue the en-
ployer in the event of injury, but
the employer would have restored
to him in such suit all the common
law defenses that he enjoyed before
the passage of this act, and the stat
us of both plaintiff and defendant in
court would be exactly what it is
now"
The one exception authorizes the
concurrent acceptance by nonsubject
employers and their employees.

COURTEOUS WORDS THAT BITE
Teutons Told We Accept Their

HE EXPLAINS RESPONSIBILITY

Following Is the text of the note
recently cabled by Secretary. Ian
sing to Ambassador Gerard, at Ber-
lin, with instructions to deliver 1t to
the German Minister of Foreign AZ
fairs:
1.-THE note of the Imperial Ger
man Government, under date of May
4, 1916, has received careful consid-
Grafton by the Government of the
United States. 1t is especially not
ed, as indicating the purpose of the
Imperial Government as to the flu
ture, that it is prepared to do its ut
most to confine the operation of the
war for the rest of its duration to
the fighting forces of the belliger-
ents, and that it is determined to
impose upon all its commanders at
sea the limitations of the recognized
rules of international law upon
which the Government Of the United
States has insisted.
Throughout the months which
have elapsed since the Imperial Gov
eminent announced, on February 4,
1915, it's submarine policy, now
happily abandoned, the Government
of the United States has been con-
stantly guided and restrained by mo-
tives of friendship in its patient eff
forts to bring to an amicable settle
ment the critical questions arising
from that policy.
Accepting the Imperial Govern
ment's declaration of it's abandon
ment of the policy which has so Sc
riously menaced the good relations
between the two countries, the Gov
eminent of the United States will
rely upon a scrupulous execution
henceforth of the now altered policy
of the Imperial Government such as
will remove the principal danger to
an interruption of the good relations

existing between the United States
and Germany.
THE Government Of the United
States feels It necessary to state that
1t takes 1t for granted that the I'M
perial German Government does not
intend to imply that the mainte-
nance OF its newly announced policy
is in any way contingent upon the
course or result Of diplomatic nego-
tiations between the Government of
the United States and any other bel
ligerent Government, notwithstand-
ing the fact that certain passages in
the Imperial Governments note of
the fourth instant might appear to
be susceptible of that construction.
"In order, however, to avoid any
possible Misunderstanding, the Gov
eminent of the United States notifies
the Imperial Government that 1t
cannbt for a moment entertain,
much less discuss, suggestion that
respect by German naval authori-
ties for the rights of citizens of the
United States upon the high seas
should in any way or in the slightest
degree be made contingent upon the

OF Steamer Sussex and
Promises Indemnity.
A FRANK CONFESSION IS MADE
Expresses Regret and Has ZAP.
propriateIy Punished" the
Submarine Commander.
THINK ATTACK WAS A MISTAKE

Washington, May 10.-Germany,
in a note received by the State de-
partment to-day from Ambassador
Gerard, admits a German subma-
lrine torpedoed the channel steamer
Sussex in violation of the assur-
ances given the United States, ex-
presses regret for the incident, an
nounces the submarine commander
has been appropriately punished"
and declares it's readiness to pay
adequate indemnity to the Ameri-
cans injured on the vessel.
1t was indicated by the State de-
partment that the German statement
that the offending commander had
been punished will be accepted and
the Sussex case considered closed ex-
ocept for arranging the payment of
indemnities to several citizens of the
United States who were hurt.
There probably will be no attempt
TO negotiate for these indemnities,
or for final settlement of the LUIS
itania and other pending cases, how
ever. until sufficient time has elaps-
ed to indicate how the last American
note is received, and whether the
new submarine policy is being lived
up to.
The State department officials
noted particularly the passage of the
note which said: I'm view of these
circumstances the German govern
ment frankly admits the assurances
igiven the American Government, in
accordance with which passenger
vessels were not to be attacked
without warning, had not been adj
lhered to in the present case"
This is regarded as indicating the
purpose on Germany's part to de-
cline to pay indemnities for Ameri-
cans killed and injured in attacks
on ships other than passenger Ii
ners prior to date of the last note,
in which the German government
promised freight as well as passen-
ger vessels will not be attacked
without warning or without provis-
ion for the safety of persons aboard.
Any response to the note received
to-day probably will make distinct
reservation for American rights on
this point.
