Mr.. James B. Clark, one Of the
best known and most popular men

the Ford automobile in which he
was riding turned over on the Mays

daughter who was with him was

bruises was uninjured.

and remained there until Saturday
afternoon when he was removed to
the home of his sister, Mrs. John

thought at first that he would live
but a short while, but. his chances
are now considered better than even.
DIR. David L. Barrow, of Lexington,
was called into consultation and
the physicians now think if no COM
plications arise he vii recover.

THE PEOPLE
SHOULD KNOW
Two Widely Different Reports as to
Condition of Water Have Been
Received.

There has been considerable talk
and many rumors' afloat regarding
the condition of the water supplied
to this city by the Kentucky Utili-
ties Company. This matter should
receive the prompt attention Of the
city authorities so that if there is
really something wrong with the
water the people should be advised
in order to take necessary precau-
tons, and if not, then the rumors
to the contrary shonld he quieted
Many people use only the water
furnished by the water company
and as long as reports are in circu-
lation that the water is impure just
that long will there be great uneasi-
ness felt.
We publish below the two reports,
one received by DR.. J. A. Shirley,
City Health Officer, from the State
Board of Health, the other received
by DIR. p. X. McKenna from J. D.
Allen. The letters explain them
selves:
CDR. j. A. Shirley,
Mt. Sterling, KY,
Dear DR.. Shirley: =
We have made meteorological ex-
animation of the samples of water
submitted by you and regret to have
to inform you that both of these
samples show evidence of pollution
with colon bacillus or sewage bac-
terra derived from intestinal dis
charges, as is to be expected of an
unpurifed. surface water. We ad-
wise you to make a careful investi-
CATION in order to determine if this
water supply is at fault in produc-
ing the typhoid fever as it easily
might be. Of course, it is practi-
cally impossible to discover the ty-
phoid bacillus itself in a polluted
water supply, but the presence of
colon bacillus would indicate that
it could be there and probably is.
Very truly yours,
D. P. CURRY,
State Sanitary Engineer"

HOW TO APPEAL DRAFT CASES TO PRESIDENT

Reiterated instructions for the bene- fit of drafted men regarding appeals came to Colonel Rreen, disbursing agent for Arizona, for the selective draft yesterday. It related to appeals to the president and directed that the appeals must come from the district boards and must be sent directly to the president and not to the office of the provost marshal general or to any member of congress or to any other person or place.
 If so, the appeals and all affidavits in support of them will be returned to the sender Nor can appeals be taken from decisions of the local boards on claims of dependency or in other matters in which such boards have jurisdiction. The president will pass only on appeals from the decision of the district boards from decisions denying exemption on industrial or agricultural grounds.
 Another order relates only to appeals by men in railroad employment for exemption on that ground, Such ap- peals must also be made direct to the president.
